So nat- urally you must be thinking about vacationing for a while in some cool little spot you know of, far or near. A vacation isn’t worth the ratl- road fare, if you must worry all the time about the house at home. Nor do you enjoy rushing madly on the last day, shutting up the house In a hurry. With a little itemized planning, this work can be done gradually, day by day, during perhaps a week or ten days before the vacation start for fresh fields. Plan the meals so that food will not be left over to spoil. Clear the tops of bookcase, ta- and mantels of small articles that will gather dust. At the same time take down all heavy hangings if they did not go several weeks ago, during the housecleanin, Bookcase, china closet and linen closet, sure to get their interiors dusty if left to themselves, may be made dustproof by stuffing the door cracks with newspaper strip: Pictures should be encased in cheese-cloth slips, along with the electric lamp fixtures. If you don’t want to trust rugs in storage at the cleaners leave them on the floors, but scatter tar balls or camphor over them to keep the moths away. Stuffed fur. niture pleces should be covered with slips, or with home-made sub- stitutes of old sheets. As you go about the house, don’t forget to pick up all stray matches, and bottles of combustible clean- ing fluids that might be the cause of fire, Early on the last day, or the day preceding that, if you must leave in the morning, you can then easily wind up the house-closing process. In the first place, take the silverware to a safety deposit box at your bank, if you value it. Clear away all food, even to the staples; wash the refrigerator care- fully @nd let it air thoroly. Then put tn it a lump of charcoal to absorb odors, that might otherwise get stale. Sprinkle insect powder around the pipes and chloride of lime in the drains, rub stovepipes with an olled cloth, and drain the water from heaters and boilers, letting fresh water run in, Have the water and gas turned off for the whole house, Then, as a thought for your own further vacation enjoyment, leave your forwarding address at the postoffice, and arrange to haye a home paper sent to you, I LAUGH DERISIVELY AT JO BACH’S SINISTER PROPHECY I kept still, as Jo Bach command. ed, not because I had any wish to do #0, but because I was too startled to cry out. “Listen,” he said again, without turning his face toward me. “Who- ever goes down in that U-boat is go- ing to death—to death! Do you hear me?” “I hear all right, but why should T believe you?" “Because I planted the stuff! And if you value the life of that dancing girl you're running around with— you'll let her know-———" I laughed, “Never Trust a Hun,” came into my mind. I had laughed at the threat before, because I disdained it. And still I scorned it, as I scorned Jo Bach himself. “go you really believe those poor, harmless pearls can carry & curse with them, do you?” I asked. “Belleve?—I know. But mind you, I'm not telling you in oréer to save the dancer's sweet young life—only just to keep her from monkeying around and blowing up——" “Blowing up your own little game. You can't bluff me, Jo Bach,” I said in my most serene tones. Then I sprang quickly to my feet, for I saw that grouped shadows were passing behind the thin summer shades of the dining room, and I knew that the men would soon be strolling atong the beach with their cigars. “Wait! Wait! Jo Bach command. ed. “Damn it, I'll tell you right out why she can't—why nobody but me can get those jewels.” “At dawn, tomorrow,” I quoted de- risively, and fled toward the side porch of the house. I rushed away from Jo Bach with the idea of going straight to the tele- phone to get Mary Thomas on the line if I could. At least I would let her know what the Hun had said. Doubtless she would deride it as I id. But as IT ran up the side steps on the way to the telephone in Daddy's office—I bumped right into Bob. “T beg your pardon,” he said, tho of course, it wasn’t his fault that we collided so violently. “I was looking for you. I missed you at dinner.” “Thank you, kind sir," I said, and threw in my nice little curtsey for full measure of politeness. ‘As of old, when I was Jane Ames, that curtsey acted as a charm, or a challenge. “Come down on the sands,” Bob urged. ‘See, the moon is rising. Can you resist As if to prove that I couldn’t, he grasped my &rm, and marched me along in his old domi- neering way. More than once had that masterful manner offended m, after we were married, “Never agai Never again!” I whispered now to myself as we walked away into the spell of the moon and sea, And I leaned just a wee bit on the arm that grasped mine. “Have a cigarette?” his silver case. “No—no thank you; I never smoke,” I answered, realizing that T was true to form in spite of myself. Once I had resolved to lure my hus- band bi? the wiles of show girls. 1 had resolved to play the siren. And now, at the very first chance, I forgot. “That's good,” said Bob, himself as honest as I. “I never did like to see a nice girl with a cigarette.” And he threw away his own. So we walked the sands until late, and I was happy—more happy I think than Mary had been that morning when Tiny made love to her, In fact, T was so happy that I forgot all about Mary Thomas until it was too late, And now I shall never have the com- fort of knowing that she would have ignored Jo Bach's threat as disdain- Bob openea Jj fully as I dia, and Tiny's platitude, | She would, I feel sure. And yet— she might have fen ft as @ warn- (To be continued.) THERE IS TOTHING BY MARTHA HEDMAN (Star of “Three for Diana") The time has gone by, if it ever ex- isted, when women could attract and HOLD men by mere physical beauty, Men require more than physical attractiveness in the women they @arry, The woman with brains has the best chance of making a happy marriage, 1 do not say that beauty and charm will not be valuable to her, but brains are indispensable. For in @ man's mere physical love there are but two seasons—summer and winter. And no one knows how #00n the one will pass into the other! But the woman who has some- thing more than mere physical at tractiveness has a hold on her hus- band that he cannot deny. Look about you and see the wom- en who are successful wives. Are they the ravishing beauties of your acquaintance? Of course not. Most of the successful wives you know are rather plain women. Or if they are pretty or attractive, their beauty Is merely an added asset, not the prin- cipal upon which they bank in hold- ing a husband's love. Tt Is my observation that the hus. bands of plain women are usually more devoted than the husbaxds of beautiful women, A woman who can digcuss things intelligently with man makes a far more interesting companion than the giggling simple- ton of a girl who has nothing but a pretty face. Who wants to be tied for life to a woman whose highest thought cen- ters upon her rouge pot and powder puff! Men are frequently attracted, but they are never held by the merely pretty face or figure; it is the wom- an who has brains that really sup- plies what a man wants and needs in a wife. DARING DUTCH FORGER OF BRITISH NOTES HELD ROTTERDAM, July 16.—Rotter- dam police have now arrested a Dutch architectural artist, who is al- leged to have forged a huge number ot English bank notes since 1916, im- itating the watermark with a kind of varnish, When arrested the artist was in possession of a false British passport, purporting that he was a| Heutenant commander of his majes- ty's destroyer Recruit. The accused was daring enough to spend some time at Scheveningen among British officers, and once he directed the transport of British war prisoners thru Holland. His father, mother and sweetheart were arrested with him. | re sh collars in half an hour / cow By CYNTHIA GREY |On the Road to Disgrace Dear Miss'Grey: I am a girl, 19, and in love with a married man, 10 years my senior. We have tried to forget each other, but cannot do it The man’s wife is a good woman, but he does not love her, Is it fair for her to try to hold him, when she knows this? She refuses to get a divorce, 80 he can marry me. Please advise me what to do. Don't me I am a child, I am old enough to know my mind, and I can't be happy without him. , MARGUERITE. You are old enough to know, without seeking the advice of anyone, that the course you are taking can lead only to unhappl- ness and disgrace, How could you respect and Jove a man who would require such a sacrifice from his wife? It is right for this woman to try to hold her husband’s love. It belongs to her, He has nothing to offer you. There is only one thing to do—if you have a speck of womanhood, or self-respect, put this poor excuse for a man out of your mind and have ab- solutely nothing more to do with him. Can’t Decide on Husband Dear Miss Grey: A year ago I met a young man whom I loved from the first moment I saw him. I cared for him until a few weeks ago, when 1 was Introduced to another man. The first man wishes to marry me, but I am now desperately in love with the second. Shall I try to forget the second man and marry the first? WORRIED. Of course, you should not marry the first man if you do not love him. Such a course would not be fair to either of you, and would bring only misery down on the heads of both. However, your uncertain- ty of mind indicates that per- haps it is this man for whom you really care, and that your interest in the second man may be only a passing infatuation. Wait a few months before mak- ing so an important decision. Tell the first man frankly that you are not certain enough of your feelings to give him a def- inite answer now. In the mean- time, you will be able to judge the depth and sincerity of the attachment between you and the second man. From your letter it is evident that you are inclined to act impulsively. Try to culti- vate a little more restraint. Send Sweets to | Soldier in France | Dear Miss Grey: 1 am engiged to| a soldier who is still in France. He | ig not due to return for quite awhile | yet. thing useful, and any suggestions would be greatly apprectated. Also, how long before he would recetvg it, now that the war is ended? ANNA, Sweets are still scare in France, and he would be disap: pointed if your parcel did not contain something of this kind. Bars of sweet chocolate are the most practicable, as some kinds of eandy spoil on the way. A vest pocket folding camera, with plenty of films, would be the most acceptable thing you could send. Films are almost impossible to obtain in France, A fountain pert is next in order of desirability. Buy ink tablets to send with this. The parcel must weigh under seven pounds, It would take from six weeks to two months for the package to reach the soldier, according to what part of the country he is In, The Ring Again Dear Miss Grey: A boy friend gave me a ring for Christmas. I hesitated to accept it, for we had not kept steady company very long. We quarreled and I offered him the ring several times, but he refused to take it. Later he asked for it, and I would not give it up then. He asked to see it one day, and when I gave it to him he kept it. I don’t care to have anything further to do with him, but I feel I am entitled to the ring, when he gave it to me, and refused it once when I offered it to him. How would you suggest me gettingypossession of it again? SYLVIA. You should not have accepted the ring In the first place, since you were not engaged to the young man. Any effort you make to regain possession of the ring will be unrefined and un- ladylike on your part. Surely you would not wish to keep this man's gift under any circum- stances, if you no longer value his friendship. No Note Necessary Dear Miss Grey. When a young man brings me a box of candy when he comes to call, should I write him a nice note afterward to thank him? L. No, it ig not necessary to be so formal.
