"It Is the right word for the right
ease," said hei1 husband, lmperturbably.
"Dlun't you notice how rudo Alice was
towards everybody nt your ten-party yes
terday? When that timid little spinster
tried to chat pleasantly with her upon
tho war Alice contradicted her flatly on
every single point, nnd really discon
certed tho kindly little woman sadly.
Then I heard her Commenting In un
flattering tones Upon the clothing of two
of your guests."
"That wns decidedly rudo of Alice,"
said tho other' thoughtfully. "I didn't
think sho was guilty of such bad tasto."
"My dcarA" said her husband, quickly,
"the ovor-cnndld woman Is always trans
gressing tho laws of good taste."
This Is porfectly true. Too many wo
men nro heedless of the feelings of others
nowndnys. A certain type or gin con
siders that excessive candor and a blunt
manner nro attractive. This la decidedly
untrue, Chnrlty towards tho feelings of
others Is the first essential of good breed

populsr until she mends her ways.
Suffrage" in Holland
Though 'Holland Is not at war, its worn
n organized nt once on tho lines adopted
In StaUs directly Involved. The Suffrage
Association suspended Its political work
nnd Its collection of signatures to peti
tions to enroll bands of helpers, as In
thu enso of the English Suffrage Asso
ciations. They are naturally giving great
attention to tho food supply, on which
such a strain hns been plnccd by the In
rush of Belgian refugees.
"Jnck7" sho queried anxiously. "Why
Is Jock not here?"
"Ho thought It best to leave the matter
In my hands mean, he thought I'd bet
ter break tho Ice, so to sppak. He Is com
ing over to so you tomorrow afternoon."
Lady "VVImbcrley seated herself by the
drawing room Are and clasped her handa
on her knees. Lord Arthur remained
standing. Ho seemed nervous nnd tugged
thoughtfully nt his moustache.
"It's llko this, you see," he said after a
pause, "It's not quite tho thing for a boy
to bo at a school where his father Is
headmaster."
"But Jack Is not Guy's father."
"Well, It will como to about tho same
thing. Anno. Now, you're a dear, sweet
woman, and you'ro wrapped up in this
precious youngster of yours. When you're
married nto Erleigh, tho poor chap Er
leigh, I mean will bo In a dltllcult posi
tion. You won't lot him treat Guy like
tho other boys, nnd that'll mean trouble."
"Oh, Arthurl As If I should interfere
with the discipline of the school."
He laughed. "You'll try not to," he
snid. "try very hard: but now, look here,
don't you think yourself that you'll be In
clined to be Just a little well, lenient to
ward your own son?"
"Oh, Arthur this is cruel of you to
talk like this, I don't want Guy to go to
another school. I won't have him sent
to another school."
Lord Arthur shrugged his shoulders.
"Well, of course. It rests with you and
Erleigh," he said, "but I know that he
has quite made up his mind that it's the
best thing for the boy and for you."
Lady Wlmberley looked nt him sus
piciously. "Why have you two Just
thought of this?" she queried. "You have
said nothing about It before,"
"I have thought all along that tho boy
ought not to be at Harptree so near to
you. And. of course, when you're mar
ried to Erleigh the boy will practically
be living at home. It will be had for
him, bad for you and very awkward for
Erleigh."
For a few moments there was silence.
Lord Arthur walked forward to the table
and picked up n sheet of foolscap paper
covered with childish. Irregular writing.
"Young Travers still here?" ho queried.
"Yes. His mother has gone up to town
for a few days. She Is coming back on
Wednesday. The boy is In tho library
now working."
"Oh." said Lord Arthur. "And Where's
Joan?"
"Gone to Carstatrs for a while."
"H'm." said Lord Arthur. "Well, now
about Guy you'd better talk It over with
Erleigh, hadn't you? We thought of Eton
they might have him I'm not sure, but
I've got some Influence,"
"You suggested this to Jack?"
"In a way yes; but he had been think
ing the matter over before I mentioned
It. We are quite agreed."
"You are keeping something from me,"
she said sharply, "Guy has got Into some
trouble you are keeping something back
I thought so the other day tho morn
ing after my birthday. Guy got him
self Into some trouble the night he said
ho had lost his way."
"Oh, nonsense, Anne: the boy Is all
right. How could ha go to another school
If he'd disgrace himself? Well. I must
be off now, and you'd better think this
over talk It over with Erleigh. And If
I were you I'd give In to htm over It.
He's not a man that can be persuaded to
do what he thinks Is wrong."
Lady Wlmberley's lips tightened for a
moment, and then she smiled.
"Well, there la plenty of time," she
said. "Of pourse, he could not leave In
the middle of the term."
"Of course not," said Lord Arthur, and
then he looked at his watch. "I must be
off," he said. "I want to catch the last
train to town, and It's after 9 o'clock
now. amy I order the motorT"
"Yes. Arthur, ring the bell, will your'
Ten minutes later Iord Arthur Merlet
was on his way to Harptree, and as he
leaned back In the close car, with a, cigar
between his lips, he felt a little ashamed
of himself.
"I ought not to have given In to
Erleigh." he said to himself. "I ought to
have Insisted on Vertigan being dis
missed," But-Erlelgh had refused to dismiss Ver
tigan, and things had coma to a dead
lock. Lord Arthur had thought It beat
to give In, until he could expose Vertigan
(and send the scoundrel to prison, He was
sorry now that he had been so weak.
His sister-in-law was going to make
trouble. Probably In the end neither Ver
tigan nor Wlmberley would leava the
school.
When the ear reaehed the station Lord
Arthur was surprised to And Erleigh on
tha platform talking to the statlonmaster
"Hellp!' he said. "You going up to
town, too?"
"No yea that Is I'm not sure come
here for a minute. I want to speak to
you. '
They walked a little way down the plat
form and paused near a lamp. Erlelgh's
face was ghastly.
"Wht's the matter?" said Lord Arthur.
"Are you 111?"
Kxlslsh tried to speak, but no words
same from his Hp-
nVTaat has happened?" said Lord
Arthur. "Anythlmf wrong with QayT"

Extra Table Leaves
A new use for extra table ieavee has
bocn discovered by lome Ingenious house
wife. Everyone knows what a trouble It
It Is to dispose of these leaves, which ara
too large to fit Into a closet comfortably
and too necessary to eend, to storage.
xnls woman Used her extra tablo leaves
for n serving table. She didn't fasten
thcirt down In any way,, so that when she
needed them, they could be removed with
out any trouble, She had a carpenter
make the rack to hold tho boards, This
was large enough to accommodate two
boards. One rested acrpss the top, and
one across tho bottom, making two
shelves. Tho rack Itself was made of
strips of wood about an Inch and a halt
square, and was about three feet high.
Each of tho two Uprights were held to
gether two Inches from tho top, and two
inches from tho bottom by strips of wood
the width of the extra leaves.
Tho legs thus formed wero connected by
four long strips about two Inches shorter
than tho leaves, nnlled two on each side,
hear tho top, and bottom. This mado a
long, four-legged rack, with bars upon
the top and bottom for tho extra leaves
to rest on, ono leaf forming tho top. and
ono tho lower Bhelf. Of course, the rack
had to be stained tho same color as tho
leaves, and polished so that you could
novcr tell tho difference between this and
a real serving table.
Dishes, sllverwaro and numerous other
things were kept on tho lower shelf, and
the whole thing wns very useful. It
really Isn't so complicated as It Bounds,
and will cost very little If you have a
carpenter to do the bit of work, as it
seldom is a successful experiment for tho
amateur.
A Queen's Gift
A graceful act of Queen Maud of Nor
way Is the placing of her English house
near Sandrlngham, a gift of King Ed
ward, at tho disposal of tho authorities
for war necessities. She expressly says
that aha thus lends Appletnn House in
her capacity as a British Princess, and
there Is no doubt It will bo put to good
Use.
"Yes," answered Erleigh In a choking
voice. "Guy has disappeared." .
"Guy has disappeared?" queried Lord
Arthur. "Great Scott! man. what are von
doing here? Why aren't you doing any
thing to And him? Merciful heavens, this
Is awful what havo you done when did
this happen how long ago?"
He spoko thickly, angrily, like a man
who had no longer control of himself.
The veins stood out on his forehead; his
handB wero clenched. If ho had done
what he felt like doing at that particular
moment he would havo struck John Er
leigh In the face.
"I camo here to mako Inquiries," Er
leigh replied.
"By heavens, If tho boy has been kid
napped if any harm comes to him, I'll
ruin you yes, you and your accursed
school.'
"There Is no need to talk like that.
Lord Arthur. Wo must all work to
gether and put things straight. Nothing
Is to be gained by losing your temper."
"What have you done7 Where is Ver
tigan?" "Vertigan was talking to me In my
study, when tho captain of tho house
camo to me and said that Wimberlv was
not at supper. Vertlgan's movements 1
nave been accounted for for the last 12
hours."
"Have you been to the police"
"No I thought I wouldn't do that until
I had tried everything else."
"Well, we'd better go there now I
ought to havo gone to them long ago I
blame myself for that but now we can't
keep the thing from Lady Wlmberley'B
ears any longer. Tho car Is still outside.
You'd better come along with me at once.
Do you want to ask tho station master
any mora questions?"
"No he has made all Inquiries Guy has
not been to the station of course. It
wasn't likely they'd bring him here, but
I thought It best to leave no stone un
turned. They're wiring all down the
lino, tq London. I've given out that
the boy has run away."
"Let us go to the police station." said
Lord Arthur. "Then the car can go on
to Monksllver and bring down Denham.
Come along."
They seated themselves In tho car, and
when Lord Arthur had given Instructions
to the chauffeur he turned to Erleigh.
"Tell me all you know," ho said curtly.
"No, you can leave out the details. You'll
havo to give them to the Inspector. Give
me a rough outline of what has hap
pened." "Supper Is at quarter to nine," said Er.

"Did you accuse him of having any

"I did not. I thought It best to wait

"Perhaps you are right"
The car stopped outside the police

AN ATTRACTIVE SUIT
On Bunday, a the day was very fine
and sunny, we decldod to walk to tho
little church half a mile away.
"You can go In the motor, If you feel
tired, Dorothy," said my hostess to me,
"But you will really enjoy the walk this
lovely morning."
"I Bhould much prefer to walk," 1 an
swered at once, "Just wait for mo here,
and I'll bo ready In a momont."
I hurried up to my room, and arrayed
myself In my green walking suit, ono
that I am particularly fond of. It Is of
broadcloth, nnd round tho nock nnd the
cuffs aro bands of fltoh fur. I have a
largo muff of tho same fur, edged With
this dark green broadcloth, nnd I fancy
that It looks very smart.
The coat of my suit Is short, and loose,
as are many of the new' models for mid
winter. The dropped shoulder lino Is very
attractive. As regards the skirt, It is,
of course, very wldo and very short, and
boasts of Ave frills or flounces at bottom.
When I went down to tho hall below,
where several of the girls were assembled,
preparatory to setting off for church, I
was struck by tho varloty and the
brilliancy of coloring In their suits. I
THA T CHEAPER
By MRS. CHRISTINE FREDERICK
AUTHOR OF "THE NEW HOUSEKEEPING."
It would seem that the last word had
beon said on cheaper cuts of meat. But
the Inoreoso of hoof and mouth dlscasa
in many sections and tho consequent In
crease in price makes the meat prob
lem still as tough (no punl) as over.
What are the much-maligned and
equally much - praised cuts called
"cheaper"? To know this tvo must
know tho architecture of the animal In
question. First, tho most tender pieces
are tho less exposed parts of the nnlmal.
Whatever portions are subjected to
muscular exercise (thus tho loin) ore
tougher because the muscles havo been
used more. This docs not mean that
thero Is not as much nourishment In
tough muscles as In tender ones. The
cheaper cuts have tougher Abres and
the whole problem is to prepare and
soften tho Abrcs, and thus put them on
a par with more tender parts. Tho mus
cles of tho abdomen are also tender, but
give a very coarso grained meat
The structure of tho musclo Abro must
bo studied In order to apply tho best
methods of cooking. Each Abro Is llko a
thin section of orange, being surrounded
with a Arm tissue and containing Juice
within. If we cut the Abro across thb
Julco will escape. If wo heat tho Abre In
a high temperature we w)ll harden It
still more and prevent the cscapo of the.
Juices. If wo cut It nnd soak it in water
the Juices again will escape. But If we

No woman can afford to bravo the phllljii

nas provided nerseir with tms pw
necessary attribute to her cqmfoit;
Tho fashionable boot shops show atunnlr-I
new models in footgear, especially I
soft, furry carrlago boots. One pair sei
recently was a reflection of the populaji
craze for velvet They could be had to
all shades, and there certainly was varlei
enough to match any gown. The Rowevj
shaped top was trimmed with dainty
white swansdown, and an arrahgement
could be made to have Milady's tnonogr&nt
done In lovely hand embroidery on the
ankle.
Another stylo of evening slipper Is h,
although one would hardly think that
there were any more. This partlcul.
slipper Is made of sold brocaded maun
with trimmlnss of antloue cold buck!
The straps over the ankle have evidently,;
been found wanting when It come hi
keeping Milady's slipper on In th e
cttement of the strenuous fox-trot,
an additional strap graces the upper pan;:
attached to the counter. The high LoulJ
heel still remains, and it looks particular
ly cnarming in Drocaded materials.
