Properly Hung Pictures

'1' rule for picture hanging I ' to hang them a1!‘ vlfl-lilvfil- T1115 i5 uiic of the most frequently broken rules of interior decoration. People who should know better will insist on hanging their pictures too high. 'I‘h;s room about which I have just told you has the pictures so high that you almost have to stand on tsp-toe to reach the frames. It would be impossible to dust them without standing on something. ‘That cf course is the least objec- tionable part oi it. What is the use- of hanging up a picture if it is so high that you cannot enjoy it to the fnilest. Friends of ours have jus: ‘ t a very lovciy- oil-paint- trig, w Uh cost ilicni a consider- able amount. of money and of which they are justly very proud. ft is hung so high that you fairly have to peer at it to sec what it is nil illlOlll. it \\'(llll(l add veijv much to ilic cinioymcnl of the piclurc if at were hung low enough to prop- erly see it.

Sometimes there is a great unev- cn-rss in the height of pictures in the spline room. It will add to the balance and the feeling of restful- ness in the room, if all pictures are hung with the bottom of the frame, the same distance from the floor. That of course is a general rule which cannot be applied to piqgur- es hung in groups.

slippers after n days’ walking about with an ingmwing toe nail? Yet this painful condition can be re- lieved in a. few minutes.

Most people make the mistake of cutting dawn the nail on the pain- ful side. That only makes matters worse for it creates a new cutting edge, and encourages the mall to grow in still more.

The correct way is in cut the nail straight across. Then try to cut as deep a. V-shaped wedge as you can down the centre of the nail. the wide end of the V pointing towards the end of the toe.

Next with a fine file flatten out the surface of the nail, taking care not to get too near the-quick. When you have carried‘ out these instructions you will be able to wear your shoes with comfort, for there will be nothing to press the nail into the flesh.

Boy swallowed Jackstonc

A six-pronged Jackstone doesn't make very good eating, four-year- old Richard Raines, Arlington, Wis. discovered. Richard swallowed the metal object while playing. After 24 hours oi’ pain and discomfort, dur- ing which he could not eat, phy- sicians succeeded in removing the jzickstonc from his esophagus.

Use Liver in Varied Ways

To use the cheaper kinds of liver grind it and combine it with other foods for such dishes as creamed liver, liver hash liver and rice loaf and liver croquettes. Liver salad may be made from chopped liver, raw caliraxe and onions.

Scorch Stains '

Scorch stains may be removed in any one of three ways. If the stain is lllht. soap and water will remove it. The second way ls to wet the spot with water and expose to the sun for a day, longer if necessary. The third is to place a. cloth wet with hydrogen peroxide over the stain. Next place a second cloth, a. dry one, over the two layers and iron with a. medium warm iron. Ironing directly on the cloth wet with hydrogen peroxide leaves rust stains.

Frayed Edges

When frocks, skirts, or coats are to be washed and lengthened, it is advisable to undo the hem at the bottom before the garment is wash- ed, so that the mark of the old turning will not show. Loosely-wov- en tweeds and other woollen mat- erials are inclined to unravel easily, and to prevent the-m from becom. ing badly frayed bias binding should be carefully tacked over all the loose edges as soon as the old hems l" unaicked The gem-writs may then be washed or cleaned without risk or inconvenience.

Mr. Giles once lent a volume of Plato to one of his neighboring farmers, and when the book was re- turned asked, “Well, how .did you like Plato?" -

"First-rate," said the farmer. "I see he's got some of my ideas.”

"You have heard what the last witness said, persisted counsel, "and yet your evidence is to the contrary. Am I to infer that you wish to throw doubt on her veracity?"

The polite young man waved n deprecating hand.

"Not at all," he replied. "I merely wish to make it clear what a. liar I am if she's speaking the truth."

needed aid himself, Peter Caven- dish was not very far away.

That is love. She was prepared to admit it all, now- Her pride had gone. Life had suddenly flung off its mask of silver and the cloak of shimmering silk that had garbed a naked, ugly body. That night for the first time for longer than she could remember, Cynthia sank to her knees by the bedside and pray- ed.‘ She did not mention herself, nor ask even for protection for her person here upon this strange is- land. She prayed for the man she loved, to whose love and protection she would never, now, have any right.

Cynthia was r. different woman. The old Cynthia had died out there in the treacherous waters beyond the island. A woman knowing life ahead to be empty of all happiness or the satisfaction of love had eorne out of that seething torment with its living peril. A woman fearless as she had been thoughtful only of herself, a. woman purged in the fires of her own kindling.

And so began a long and anxious vigil. Each morning, very early, she would rise, and bathe, and make her way to the missionarys house, to the side of the man she loved. While his life hung in the balance she carried out her niinistrations of tenderness with that gentle ability only a woman can give. She spared herself not at all. She made weari-

Did she but know it, this mo- ment marked the death of the old Cynthia. Marland, the birth of the new. It was a moment of magic re- velation, a moment of wonder. And, because of another woman away up in the white bungalow on the reef, it was a. moment of tra- gedy.

Peter was bound. Every softening of these two towards each other was but building higher the ur- rible barrier between them. Cynthia. realised all this, and n sob rose in her throat as, ignoring the angry, protesting Dicky. she turned, murmured n word of fare- well, and turned towards the door of the hotel and went out.

CHAPTER XVII.

Cynthia went back through the noonday heat to the house of Fa- ther Denou, the Catholic mission- ary, and all that afternoon sat si- lently by the bedside of the un- conscious man or moved noiseless- ly about the darkened chamber where he lay.

It was a beginning, this, and it was also an end. 'I‘bat night as, very late. she walked back alone to her hotel,‘ Cynthia saw a distant white shape out to sea and knew that the Sweet Vanity had em- barked upon her mislon.

She was alone here, on this strange island of diver; pgople or divers passions. It was a fearsome place ftr a helpless woman like herself: yet Cynthia was rot afraid. siw did not fear because. though’

He had no knowledge of her pres- ence, yet. He lay there on the bed.

Dorothy Dix’ Letter Boxj,‘

Has Wife Less Freedom Than Husband? Slovenly Husband Gets on Bride’s Nerves-Has Elderly Mother Right to Wear Youthful Clothes?

Dear Miss Dix-What liberty should l. wile give her husband? What liberty has a wife with children and not much money? ‘rhere is always husband to go to the club or out with a. friend, but what money or time will a husband give his wife for enjoyment? The. fifty-fifty eases are indeed very few and far between. Generally it is a pro-

position of ninety-fifty, with the wife getting the short end. . MR8. ANN. Answer: ’

when we speak of liberty as between hus- bands and wives, we do it in an academic sense because, in reality, each is bound to the other and neither one is free to do as he or she pleases with- out reference to the other. No married man, for ‘instance, ls free to spend all of his evenings away from home amusing himself, nor is he free to spend his money on his own gratlfications, nor is he free tn philander around with other women as if he were a bachelor. . When he married he parted with his birthright of freedom for the sake of having a wife and children and home. Unfortunately, many men do not seem to realize this before they marry. Or else they are not- wllling to pay the price and welch on their bargains. So we have the common spectacle of husbands who have their cake and eat it, loo. They use their homes merely as places to eat and sleep and from which they slep out to places of amusement. They spend their. money on themselves. They have affairs with other women. In every way they arrogato to themselves all the freedom of the single man while they enjoy the bless- ings of the married man. But heavens, what a row these free married men would make if their ivives claimed similar freedom! What martyrs they would consider them- selves if their wives clapped on their hats as soon as dinner was over and went forth to enjoy themselves, and left them to wash the dishes and put the children to bed and spend their evenings waiting for the gay ladies to return home! How quick they would hunt up the nearest divorce lawyer if wife still had an eye out for a good-looking gigolo or stayed downtown to have dinner and dance with a boy frlendl They would tell you quickly enough that a. wife isn't free to act like a girl bachelor. But while neither'the husband nor the wife is free to do as he or she did before montage, it is not to be denied that tho lack of freedom is one of the main things that ls the matter with matrimony. For thede- sire of personal liberty is the strongest passion of the human heart. From the very beginning of time men and women have fought and blead and died to galn- it and accounted no sacrifice too great to achieve it, may be soft and manicured, with painted red nails- ' This is true in domestic life as well as political life, and one of the main things that ails marriage is that husbands and wives are not willing to accord each other any personal liberty. They make home a prison. They try to enslave each other. They try to dominate each other. They give each other no more freedom than a dog has on n leash. There are husbands who cannot go out of an evening without their wives making a. row over it and who have to furnish an alibi for every hour they are sway from home. There are women who cannot buy n spool of thread without asking their husbands’ permission“ There are men who are not free even to eat what they want and women who wouldn't dare to join a bridge club or stay out thirty minutes late at a party for fear their husbands might get home first and raise Cain because they were not there. And it is no wonder that these husbands and wlvm who grant their spouses no liberty are hated, as we all hate our Jailers. Speciflclally as to what liberty a. wife should grant her husband I should ‘say it would be: Freedom to indulge 1n his own personal tastes and habits and opinions without being nagged about them; freedom to have his men friends come to the house; freedom to go o1! on men parties now and then; freedom to indulge in outdoor sports in moderation. And the husband should give his wife the same liberties that he enjoys. DOROTHY nix.

Dear Miss Dix-I am married w a man whom I love dearly, but he is so untidy and slouchy in his appearance that he is getting upon my nerves. I want to love him and admire him, but a slovenly unshaven man ‘has always been repulsive to me. My husband is a. professional man and I represent to him that his appearance is a handicap to him, but he says that is ridiculous. He buys me nice clothes and expects me to look my best. Why can't he see that an unattractive man is just ss little ‘pleasing to a. woman as an unattractive woman is to s. man? BRIDE.
