WOMAN’S INTERESTS AND SUGGESTIONS-FOR HOMEMAKERS
ADVENTURES OF THE TWINS
By OIJVE ROBERTS BARTON
-
“Don't I know It,” grumbled a
cross-looking bubble, rolling up.
“I’m the last one you blew. Look at
me, brown as a lump of mud and a
strong scent of kerosene, I'gh!”
“That’s too bad!” said Nick, “but
you see I couldn’t help it.”
But the bubble had worked him
self into such a rage that lie burst
with indignation.
“Well, he wasn’t happy anyway,”
said Nancy. “Oh, look there!”
A bunch of bubbles came along
singing a song, which went like this:
“A rub a dub dub,
We were born in a tub,
Where we splashed and we foam
ed and we played,
We slid down the board.
And with laughter we roared,
’Til we frightened Susannah the
maid.”
Away they all scampered, playing
leap-frog and a dozen other games
known only to soap-bubbles.
It was a jolly place.

Confusions Of A Movie Star \
I Get a New Rind of Kiss
Chapter 7 7
“You don't understand, May! I
can say no more!"
“I can—I do understand! And I
can put your doubt into words!” I
stormed. “You believed that I
couldn’t possibly have arrived. I
couldn't be a star in the McMasters
constellation—and remain—the girl
—you could marry!”
And then came Jimmy Alcott's re
ply to my daring!
I was seized suddenly in his arms.
My head was on his shoulder, his
kiss was on my lips. And it was
totally different from any kiss I had
endured in the movies.
I forgot myself. Forgot my blind
nl eyes. Forgot everything except
the security of Jimmy's arms and
Ihe tenderness of Jimmy’s kiss.
I did not see myself as acting a
part in a play.
I forgot my pride. I whispered:
“I wasn’t fair to you, Jimmy! I
haven't been fair! I tried to con
vince myself that you couldn't act
yopr bad parts so marvelously if
you were not yourself cruel at
heart!”
And then a horrid memory chilled
me* I escaped from his arms and
Jared again:
“Ginette! She wrote you daily at
the camp!”
“My dear! My very dear! Ginette
Was out of a job. And going to Lon
don! She persecuted me for names
Ht cinema companies!”
T held out m hands. .Timmy Seize 1
them and we talked softly until the j
buzz of the phono brought us bark
to the realities of the time and the
place.
Jimmy answered the call. It was
from the specialist’s office. His sec
retary sent word that the doctor
would be with me in half .an hour.
My nurse must be in attendance to
take off all the bandages.
“It makes no difference what his
verdict may he?”
“I am pledged, May!**
“It makes no difference to you if
I must go the rest of my days with a
broad red band down one cheek? No
difference if I grope to my grave
with a cane? No difference if I hide
behind black glasses with huge
rims? You love beauty as much as
Cissy loves it. Think, Jimmy! There
may be years and years of ugliness
and helplessness for me!”
“You talk as if it mattered! As
if anything mattered except the
sweetness and the cleanness of your
soul!” f
He would have taken me in his
arms again but I motioned him
away:
“Wait for the doctor’s verdict!”
“I'm not going to leave the house.
I’ll'wait down in the drawing-room.”
Then he went out of the room
and I caught my breath hard. I
had decided my future for myself:
Never would I know the comfort of
his arms again—if my beauty were
gone forever.
I had my own pride.

Calve's liver is always highest in
price and most desirable. Beet liver
comes next in price, is not so tender
and delicately flavored. Tig's liver
is tho cheapest and least desirable,
but if carefully cooked makes a per
fectly acceptable dish.
Liver is one of tho cheapest meats

But no matter how any liver is to

She Gives Catnaps
Credit For Fitness
BY 1 j Y W FOX TAX X E
English Actress, Leading Woman in
“Duleye.”
A littlo cold cream at night, an
eyo cup with lotion* in the morning
a short walk and plenty to eat three
times a day.
This of course is only for the slen
der woman who isn't tryiifg to lose
ilesh or keep a figure down.
If you’re slender cold cream is a
necessity. It supplies the oil which
the slim woman’s skin lacks and
this keeps away the wrinkles. Cold
cream, only a little., at night and
lightly pitted on. Never a heavy
touch for a thing so sensitive as the
skin!
Eyes Must bo Watched
Eyes—if they are to be luminous
and lovely—must be watched qultt*
as the hair and hands. So a period
with my eyo cup and lotion has be
come a morning rite. Sometimes I
use simply cold water—have lots of
faith in cold water, dashes of it for
tlio face, washes for the eyes and
plenty to drink.
As for .artilice—1 believe in it if (
nature didn't quite come up to what j
it might,have. Rut there must be a
very great deal of understanding
about this putting on of rouge. Wo
men depend too much upon sticks*
and puffs and too little upon their
own linger tips.
As for hair—wash it when it needs
it! 13 very head of hair needs a dif
ferent prescription. If my hair need
l'd it T should wash it twice a week.
Nothing is more unlovely than oily
hair. 1 wash my hair every second
week.
Catnaps Refreshing
The one habit which I think does
more than anything else to keep me
mentally and physically lit is that of
snatching every bit of rest I can.
I’ve so disciplined myself that I can
lie down for 10 minutes, relax com
pletely and sleep.
I come away from my little cat
naps wonderfully refreshed!
a Husband's Rights
,) Tragedy invades many homes be
cause of human inability to consider
5 any but the personal side of heart
problems. For example, the tempt
ed wife who writes the following
never once refers to her husband’s
rights in the case.
“I have a beautiful home, two
children, some luxuries, including
ear. Nevertheless, I am very much
in love with a man not my hus
band.
“His divorce case is in court but
not on my account. He lias two
children.
“My husband has learned about
my feelings and offers to release me,
to divide our property and give me
the custody of our children.
“I can’t decide. Never would F
|have supposed that I should care
for a man who has practically noth
ing in the world. For what th*
•other man* possesses must go to ,
the support of his family, I suppose.
“In my married life there always
has been more vague dissatisfac
tion. I have taken it as proof that
I did not care sufficiently for my
husband. He is good but not at all
handsome.
“Now I am wondering if I will be
happier with the other man?”
Because the wife has overlooked j
her husband’s angle of this triangl •.
is it not well to make her think |
about it?
She ought to realize that her bus* I
band probably doesn't cure to have
her in his home while she is so
obsessed with another man.
The husband has some rights even i
if he is net good looking, but she f
disregards them and perceives only
the power and the pull of her own
emotions.
I see in this letter an indirect
presentation of the fact that a good
deal of the present matrimonial un
rest comes from our habit of too
much exalting love or accepting it
as a one-sided affair.
A. bride expects the original in
tensity of married life to last for
e\er and when she finds her big ro
mantic dream is only a fleeting fa*
tor, she becomes “vaguely dissatis*
field” and concludes she never could
have loved her husband anyway.
She has missed something, sh»
thinks.
She has. She has missed what she
A
might have learned had she ever
considered her husband's side of the
marriage contract.
Had she married any ether man,
had her husband married any other
woman some kind of dissatisfaction
would have ensued different, of
course, but not to he denied.
Now suppose that this woman is j
freed by divorce to marry the di
vorced man After a few months of
passionate romance .their love will
sink to the dead level of which she!
now complains.
Meanwhile she will have robbed j
her children of good father and in ,
exchange will have given them a i
step-father who did not hesitate t •
put his own offspring out of his life! j
The best of all cures for such'
folly would bo her enforced associa- j
ticyi wall the “other man." Then I
any outsiders easily could foretell;
her future for her,

Morning Glory

“I)o you know, Polly darling,"
said Paul, “that this very taxicab
we’re in is a war veteran? It’s one
of those blessed old rattletraps that
chugged up to tin* Marne on that
awful September 6th.” Polly’s
mouth opened in awe as ^h< gazed
about the old vehicle and up at the
fat chauffeur. “ and maybe this old
fellow himself was one of the men
who pushed back the Germans at
Meatix. * * *
“But here’s our hotel, dear.”
“Oh, Paul — ” squeezing his arm
tight, "L love this one. What an
adorable little street! And there's
the Madeleine [ recognize it front

all my life. What splendid pillars!
And—look, Paul there's the stone
saint that had his poor head blown
off by Big Bertha. * * Oh, what a

shine striking across her face woke
Polly early. She kissed Paul’s < yes.
"I'niiio, blessed old boy, don’t sleep
another minute! I give; you quarter

to breakfast. I can’t wait! If you
don’t hurry I’ll jump out of the win
dow and mess up that sweet little
cobble-stoned courtyard!”
• Wo don’t go down t<> breakfast.
Madame Ignorance. Breakfast comes
up to us—rolls and coffee. That’s
all you get!”
The neat maid brought It on a
tray and Polly alternated her nib
bles of crisp roll and mouthfuls of
eoffee-and-hot-milk with squeals fit
delight and impatient urgings of
Paul to hurry.
In the street was the fresh smel\
of morning. Cafes were being swept
and garnished, bakers’ boys trudged
along with baskets of yardlong
brown loaves, a shop at the corner
was ablaze with oranges, carrots and
luscious lettuces and then suddenly
upon Polly’s eyes burst the glory
or the flower market about the
Madeleine. She was on tiptoe with
joy. Fusty peasant women in fil
skirts smiled at the couple.
“Ah—ah—les violettes pour Mig
non! Fifty centimes la boite! Sweo
—sweet!’’ And Paul bought “Mig
non” a bunch and pinned them or
her jacket.
"Fet's sit here.” said Paul as the;
came to the Cufo de la Pafx. “The]

well to the front where, passers-b]
almost grazed their toes, “that i

Soap-Bubble Land
Soap-Bubble Land was a funny
place. When Buskins stopped the
little apple-tree elevator and the
Twins stepped off, dozens of soap
bubble people of every size came
bobbing along to greet them. There
were % soap-bubbles from almost
every' nation on the earth, although
it is shocking to say that there are
places (and big ones at that) where
there are no soap-bubbles because
there is no soap.
One big fellow sprang lightly up
to the top of Nick’s head and bal
anced himself there for a minute.
“Hello, Nick!” he called into the lit''
tie boy’s ear, “don’t you know me?
I’m the big bubble you blew with
your daddy’s shaving soap. I’m
considered very aristocratic up here.
I shine with a hundred colors and
smell very nice. Thank you very
much for using such fine soap.”
“You’re welcome,” said Nick.
“But when daddy found it out he
took my blow-pipe away for a week.
I have to use laundry-soap now.”
