After that we were outcasts, to be shunned and avoided. Not one thing would outsiders have to do with us. Our former friends went around the other way, and tho little girl who lived across the street stood in her own door and looked at us with fear. Passersby chose the opposite side of the street, and persons who came close to the house and saw the sign hurried away as If some evil things were at their heels. A few friends offered sympathy over the telephone, but they stayed away from our sight. An acquaint ance, not knowing that we were in mates of the pest house, came on the porch at night without seeing the sign. We told him to leave and leave quickly, crying "Smallpox." He turned and ran off, and nad our laughter and calls not stopped him, he would have run all the way back to his room and had smallpox in his imagination for a week to come. There came to our door one even ing an elderly lady. She rang, and the words, "We're in quarantine smallpox," were whispered through TEACHEBS WASTED FOR our varied calls. Many war vacancies.

"Oh, my Lord!" she gasped, and with all the speed her years and weight allowed, she hurried down the steps and away. It remained, then, lor us to live lonely lives; to "batch" in the attic; to read, sleep and sing at all hours and make the neighbors wish us dead. The hour of liberation was looked forward to with an eagerness com parable only to that which a fresh man has at Christmas. It was the witching hour, the hour when we should be at large, the hour that we vowed would mark the painting of Columbia all the colors of the rain bow. We had it in us. Energy pent up for fifteen days ought to tar and feather any town, so we thought. Page Five came. Our profs said we had many quizzes to take. All that good en ergy that would have livened Colum bia for many days had to be poured into textbooks. We studied the last four days, and I think the grades we made will bear testimony to our zeal. Yesterday's Late News "Woolen Uniforms for All Troops. In explaining the steps the War Department has taken to meet the unsatisfactory health conditions of the camps, Secretary Baker says that woolen uniforms for all troops have been provided and are at the camps or enroute there.

The housewife should listen only to the claims of manufacturers who back their assertions with a money back guar antee. I have found in my years of Domestic Science work that manufacturers of meritorious products employ the money-back-if-not-satisfied policy of merchandising. Such manufacturers are deserving of housewives'patronage and usually get it. No matter how good a manufacturer may say his product is if he lacks courage to offer a refund of purchase price, if buyer is not satisfied he displays a lack of faith in his goods. In such instances the purchaser assumes all risk and there is always risk, when the maker of merchandise refuses to stand by his goods with a money back guarantee. To make this point clear consider the advertising of a certain brand of baking powder. The producers of this baking powder abolish the uncertainty of buyers getting full money's worth as every can is sold under a clear cut guarantee of money-back-if-not-satisfied with bake day results. Their advertisements state that their product is superior they say that it is unfailing in results pure in the can and in the food and that it pro duces absolutely pure and wholesome bakings. Furthermore they assert that "You save when you buy it and you save when you use it." The phrase is so familiar to the housewife, every one no doubt will recognize it as taken from a Calumet Baking Powder advertisement. But to get back to my subject the importance of those printed words lies in the fact that the Calumet Baking Powder Co. put the proof before the housewife with positive bake day results. They invite her to buy Calumet on a money back trial basis. They demonstrate dependability with bake day results. They show her actual savings in rramoney. I have tested Calumet Baking Powder. The tests I conducted were far more exacting than could be made by the housewife and those tests have proved the truth of the Calumet Baking Powder Co.'s contentions. No house wife can afford to refuse so liberal a proposition. All should give Calumet a trial and millions have done so. That it makes good its advertised promises is shown in the fact that housewives who put it to a test continue to use it. NOTE Miss Costello is already well known to "lost of the ladies of our city.
