Those who possess an inborn sense of humour are indeed fortu- uaw, and should endeavor to keep it. It is well, however, m remem- ber when living with others that ‘you-rs" is not the only sense of humour in the world. Your friends and relations may have an entirely different viewpoint and find you lacking in their "sense of humour." Be tolerant!

IOQUIRING A GRACEFUL NECK AND THROAT If your posture is not all it ihould be, take steps to correct it before you buy new fall clothes. Much has been written and said about the queenly manner in which

famous women in history carried themselves. And a great HD1011!“ 05 space has been given over to des- cribing how handsome a shapely head set on a graceful neck was.

A graceful neck and throat can be acquired by holding your head up, your chin in and keeping your shoulders thrown back.

Sometimes the neck muscles be- come stiff. Exercises will remedy that condition.

Stand or sit straight and throw your head as far back as it will g0. ‘Then tip it’ to the right, trying to touch your ear to your shoulder ‘without moving your shoulder. ,N'ow stretch it downward to the ;left. Let your head hang loosely forward until your chin touches ,your chest. Keep your neck per- fectly relaxed while doing each step. Repeat the exercise several times a day. '

FDo rothy Dix ’s Letter Box

Repentant Mother Warns Against Interfering With Youthful “Crushes”—How to be Happy Though Married - Must Faithful Wife Promise Not to Marry Again Should Spouse Die.

Dear Miss Dix-Won't you emphasize the danger of mothers inter- fering too much with these so-called boy and girl crushes. My son, who ls now 23, developczl at 17 an infatuation for a girl near his own age. She was a fine girl, but because I wished to monopolize him I broke it ofl’. Ever since he was a baby I had been developing in him the idea that 1 must always come first with him, my wishes must be law and my judgment un- questioned Well, I broke ofl the affair after a terrible scene and it just seemed to wreck my boy. He lost interest in everything, neg- lected his studies, .was in continual scrapes, couldn't settle on anything he wanted to do. And only the other day he left me to go to a far country, saying: "Mother, when you made me give up Marlon, you made me appear spine-

less to er and yellow all the way through. Now I am going away where l can regain some backbone, if it is possible."

I cannot forgive myself for what I did to my son, and I wish to warn other mothers. AN ENLIGHTENED MOTHER.

CHEFS KNOW VALUE OF PRO- PER SEASONING Although it's far better to err on the side of underseasoning than over seasoning, a dish that must be seasoned entirely after cooking is never so effective as one seasoned during the cooking. No matter how choice the food-stuffs used, care- less seasoning leaves the cooked ‘dish flat and uninteresting. Naturally tastes differ widely, but the essential point to keel) in mind is the necessity of choosing a sca- soning that will bring out and en- hance the flavor of materials used. Salt, sugar, pepper and various spices are always at hand. and the Ichver use of them ls the art of i cooking. Salt is necessary in nearly every _dish prepared. Desserts, candles and sweet of all kinds gain in fla- vor lf cleverly salted. Any combi- nation containing milk or cream requires suit. A few grains of salt added to coffee improves the be- Iverage. Inadequate salting ls the cause of many tasteless dishes.

Sugar Improves Meats Sugar is another everyday sea- soning that works wonders when Jjudiclously used. Unless vegetables

And it is selfishness that makes these possessive mothers never willing for their children to marry. They want to keep them for ‘hemselves. They always want to be first with their children. They can't endure the thought of their children caring more for their husbands and wives than they do for them. ‘

These p- esslve mothers justify themselves in trying to dominate their children's lives by saying that mother knows best. But mother doesn't know best. No human being can know lnfallibly what ls best for any other human being because each of us has different talents, dlficrent tastes, different needs, and the things that might be the best for mother may be the worst possible thing for her son or daughter.

Many a man is a failure because his mother forced him into an cc- cupation forwhlch he was unfltted. Many a girl's life is blighted be- cause her mother would not let her follow the career for which Nature intended her. _

Many a mother in breaking oil an adolescent love affair dooms her daughter to old-maidenhood or destroys something fine and chivalrous in a boy's soul that sends him on the way to a life of philandering.

It is a pity that mothers cannot understand that they have no right to their children's lives and that all that they have a right to do is to love them and sympathize with them and try to understand them and then leave them free to go their own way. DOROTHY DIX.

CHAPTER 56‘ ‘Tl-IE ONE THING‘

"We'll give the lovers another five minutes, bless their happy hearts!" announced the trim young nurse as she gently closed the ward door be- hind herself and Peter Armstrong, and led the way along the corridor to the top of the staircase.

Peter did not. speak. He could not, at that moment. What seemed to him the perildy of Prudence had struck him like s death-blow.

She, who had answered his kiss with lover-like response, had yield- ed to the embraces of anotmr!

"They're engaged, you r5, went on the nurse. sister's just told me. It seems he saw her when he ar- rived hsre, and explained how’ the land lay. I-now wasn't it funny?-I thought you were her fiance, at the first?"

Peter didn't think it in the least bit funny. He was white to the very lips, if the chattering young woman by his side had been sufficiently ob- servant to notice that.

She led the way downstairs.

“You can go in the waiting room, ii‘ you llke." Indeed, she wasn't at all adverse to keeping him company, . there. i

"No, thanks, I shunt stay." He wanted to leave the place at once. He dare not trust himself to an- other encounter with Bert Tray- more.

At that very moment, however, an elegantly attired young lady ap- peared in the doorway of the wait- ing room, and hailed Peter by name.

lt was Virginia Dale!

Peter was ready to confound the girl, who always seemed to bob up when one was least expecting her, and when certainly one least wish- cd to sec her.

"Oh, Peter, I must talk to you for a moment! How very lucky that we've meti" She darted out into the catholic-smelling corridor, and — ignoring the trim nurse who felt she had been unjustly done out of a promising flirtation with a most at- tractive man-drew Peter into the waiting room, closing the door be- hind her cautiously.

"l-low on earth did you flnd your way here?" counter-thrust Peter, ungraciously. He icant against the bare wood table of the waiting room, and stared in dumb misery at Vir- ginia. ‘

But-lovely as she Was-he scarce- ly saw her. In her place was a slim,

word! Those eyes had lied to him.

Even at this moment, she was gazing into the eyes of Traymore with that aelfsame look.

"I was coming up to town, as things had got too awkward at the Towers," Virginia was saying plain- tively, and with an lnsinuatin which at first he" did not catch, though later, to his undoing, it was to be- come painfully familiar. "Bert ofler- ed to coma with me, and we atop- ped for a moment at the post office, so that I might send a telegram to a woman I know in town, who'd put me up for a day or so, until— here Virginia looked clialleugingly at Peter-"until things should blow

over." Peter didn't take up the chal- lenge. ,

Virginia went on:-

"You know how gossipy these lit- tle country post offices always are? Well, it seems a telegram had just come through to the Page family. from this hospital, saying where Prudence was. The clsnk couldn't resist reading it to us, and as we were going up to town anyhow, and the train was due in about flve minutes, Bert was mighty glad to

get the news, of course."

Peter raised his head.

"Why ‘of course’? He had a ter- rible premonition what the answer might be, and the premonition was

Peter didn't speak, and she went on, carelessly:-

"I think Bert has shown up rather well in a. difficult position. The little affair at the Towers might have put him oil-oh, you know what I mean-don't look so stern, Peter dean-I'm not hinting for a moment that she took the jew- els and the money, for I'm sure she didn't. But you know that Ben's type . . . indeed that moat of us . . ." here she sobered up, and sighed-"most of us are slaves to public opinion, aren't we?"

"I must be going," said Peter Armstrong brusquely. He couldn't stand this sort of talk another mom- ent. Had she called him into this room ‘to rub it in‘ more painfully?

"But you mustn't go. I haven't

come to the important bit yet."

Virginia ' was concerned and sup- piicant.

"Well . . ." With unflattering haste, Peter drew out his watch.

The girl put a hand upon his arm.

"!t's so difficult to tell you. You— you must help me out, Peter."

"I don't understand. Won't you say what you have to say, quick, and let me get away?"

Virginia blinked her beautifully made-up cycs, hoping a gleam of tears might show, and soften the hard heart.

"I'm in s Ihastly predicament,

Peter. It isn't your fault, and it isn't my fault, except that I wanted to help that poor Prudence in her trouble . . . and by doing so, I got myself into s. worse trouble than hers . . . far worse . . . because, after all, one’s reputation is the only thing in the world that really matters to a girl . . . you under- stand . . . oh, help me out, Pater! I can't say itl"-and with consum- mate art Virginia forced big tears to her eyes and let them trickle over the long. darkened lashes like two pearls of sorrow.
