FOR WOMEN OF ALL CLASSES IN LIFE-BEAUTY PROBLEMS AND HOUSEHOLD ADVICE

A LITTLE JUDICIOUS PRAISE
A Few Words of Encouragement Will Often

riVniOVSl My own thouBhU thn

"There Is a generosity of n loss ratified

fectly willing to employ her for some
unimportant work, but when there Is

Dear Madam An original and also about
the moat useful thine I have In my hnusa l
an emery wheel for my own use upon which I
aharpen knives, amooth oft the broken point
of machine needle, eto. It will uharpen a
dead pencil mora neatly and quickly than can
be done by hand
Get a roll of half Inch ndheshe taps from
the drutr store, tut off a atrtp Just lone enough
to reach around the small wheel of tho machine
and press It firmly tu the metal. Next, cut n
trip of fine emery Uoth the same length and
width und tflue tu the tape then wind the wheel
all around with a atrip of tape or muslin tu hold
In place until thu ylue is dry. which will take a
tl&y or m, when it may be removed. The ma
chine can bo used tn the meantime
This will last a, Ions time, and when It Is
worn out another atrip of emery Uoth can be
Tlued over the first. When using; the emery
wheel adjust as for filling a bobbin, saving
toar on other parts of the machine.

Dear Jlnilam I nm n conslnnt render of lh

month In my ulrl friend'" home. Ono nluht
wo went to thuroli nnd ahs tntroduicd mo to
Hovernl joun.- men lno nf ini-m ortered lo
o u home, and wa nrrepterl. I irot verv much
Intereated In my companion, und ho ucted ns If
l-o enJoed my company very mui.h. A few dayj
later my friend and I went to a picnic, and ha
rame over to ma and naked If I would bo hl
partner In tho names they wero playlns. and
later be aw ni homn f ry time i went
nnjwhero he would nluavi come over nnd take
nis around. Ono nleht bout a week befora I
J"' polnu homo ha ram up tn nee m and
brought a friend with hl-n We entertained
them for o while: Hum when It was time to
iru home, hp wanted to Man me. I told him that
he oriot ha was In a atrancer'a company and
he had better bo home at once. He did no.
Tho next cvenlns my friend und I went to n
church entertainment. He inn therei nlao hU
friend. They uailted around ua, trylns to apeak
to us: then they aat down ..n a bench and aaked
ua tu come. oef nnd Join ihcm. which wa
would not do. Flia minute later aome other
Elrla Joined them. They pnaaed ua, but did not
aay a word.
when I came bark I did not write, to him. al
though I rent mtcarda to ail tho othera I met.
One ,l;y when I wa In tn. iitv i i,.t im mul
eei'eral other boa and glna. who were on their
way to lolese That wa four months ago.
The other day I ent bin. a note. lukliiE him
to Inform nin what train they ould board
comlnir home for the Chrlatmas acatlon. ua
my friend and I would be In the city eery day
that week and would IU to greet them. They
neer replied. I um coins lo the same achool
on January J(i fn.l I d nnt know now to att

to know It. I will be. thankful to you for your
4vla. VliltA U.
From the tone of your letter, part of
which I hate published. I think you have
been a very foolish little Klrl lo Imagine,
the youth cared for you ut all. He probably
was trying to ha nice to a stranger, but a
ho has shown no further Intermit In you It
would be w-ler for you to elvo him no
serious consideration. If you meet hint ut
school be pleasant, but do not tako the
young man for granted To him tha afralr
probably was merely a summer flirtation.
And. above all, try to learn a little dls
cretlon Forget Him
To (A Editor of ll'oman'a Pace;
Dear Mailam I am a young lady of twenty
five suramcra and am deejJy In love with a
sung man of nlnataea. He ha a not a yet
abown any special affection for me end. In fact,
aums to think ma much older than I really am.
What would you advtaa in to do to attract him,
as real 1 cannot Uyt without bun?
Et.LK.V.
You wou:j do well to be your natural
self and not try to attract the boy In ques
tion. If he should care for you he will
let you know-, and It would be a mistake
to throw yourself at lila head Probably
In a few months' time you will laugh at
yourself for thinking you were In love.
Of course, there are times when a girl of
your age has been known to fall In love
with a man so much younger, but It Is notl
usual, ana would seem to b Inadvisable.
Love Is usually founded on respect, and
although a boy of nineteen may be fully
worthy of great respect, a respect for his
xperleooe and knowledge would not be
very possible.

The tiny nt Jlarvln, on which t hnd ro

phf wlnhed inc lo imdcrtnka for tho club.
Tho thought of Mrs. Smith reminded mo
of tho promise t had iiinde hor when lenv

im rrtiiin nml tell hot- when I could m.

a.i T rmc from the table.
"Nothing mote this morning, thank you,
Katie." I returned, smllliiK nt her Kntlo'B
Kcntiltio Interefit In me and concern for my
welfaro Is most comforting pometlmct.
"Vou no eai much as llttlo cnn:iry bird,"
sho grumbled as pho cleared tho tcblo, and
Indeed her complaint wnn Somewhat Justi
fied. I had only toyed with tho food on my
plntc
I debated for n long nilnuto beforo cnlllui;
Mrs. Smith, trying to decido what nttltmto
I Khould adopt toward her. When nhe had
(li Ht tclop'.ione'l me, making tho appoint
ment to meet mo nt the llttlo tearoom. I
had been charmed with her voire nnd man
ttpr Then Mio had nbrtintlv broknii the
appointment, glvlnj: tlie trivial cxpiimc that
tho hour Blip had given mo was tho ono her
mnnscuEo usually gno her
But ctou that action had not prejudiced
mo against her n.i had hor volco nnd man
ner when, the next morning, nho had called
mo up and said the innsieuitp had disap
pointed her nnd that nho would llko her
original appointment. When I told her that
T wnn Just leaving with my luaibar.d for a
day In the country eIio had been almost
offeiiElc.
DvlUently sho expected mo to defer to her
whims 1'crh.ips I wan pinlc-strlckcn an
1 thought of It perhaps sho had rpoon.iitl
ored her decision to ofTcr mo tho leadership
cf tho ntudy courao! I had not realized
how much I had counted on thin chanco to
make sonio money of my own until tho
possibility that 1 might lose It struck me.
Hut my solf-respect eooii nejerted Itself
Hon for tho tnouoy which I wanted no
much I could not allow- Mrs. fhnlth to rlilo
roughshod over mo.
I drew n long breath as t tool: down tho
telephone receiver. I felt aa If I wero about
to tako a cold plungo or a shower bath.
"Chelsea 87GU." My video was not
steady as t gau tho number tn tho opera
tor. Hut It did not tremb.o In tho least when,
after a maid had summoned Mrs. Smith to
tho telephone, I heard her olcp.
"This Ik Mrs. Smith. tVho Is this,
plcnso?"
"Mrs. Illchard Graham."
"Oh!" Just tho monosyllablo and then
silence. IMdently she meant to throw tho
bunion of the conversation on me.
"Vou may icmember, Mrs. Smith." I be
gnn smoothly, "that I told you yratciday
morning I would call you up on my return
from my day's outing. It was too late
la&t night when I returned for mo to dis
turb you, so I am taking tho llrst oppor
tunity this morning."
I stopped short there, for t did not
wish to suggest an nppolntment if sho
had already decldodanot to offer mo tho
position. I would not allow her to give
me that humiliation.
Thero was another long paun-, so long
In fact that In another Inntnnt I should
havo hung up tho lcrelver. Mrs Smith's
olco sounded In my ears ju3t In time.
"Oh, yes Mrs Grnhiim, I remember now."
sho began at If Mio hnd dlllleulty In plac
ing mo in her mind I knew by her tone
that uho had decided to put her wounded
feelings aside nnd Ieao her proposition still
open to me.
"Could ou meot mo this nftemoon at
three at tho llttlo tearoom on Twenty-eighth
litreet of which we spoke the other day?"
Tho slcn of the Pnlnnin Wheel? Yes.
I can bo thero nt three" , .
"Gool-by." Tho click of tha McelMsr
told me the rsmrrMllon wnn finished.
1 felt n thrill of purely femlnittp triumph
ni 1 turned nwav fmtn Ilia telephone I
knew that Mrs Smith would have declined
In see rnp If she had consulted only h'-r
Inclination-!. That Rle rtlll wished me lo
take up the leadership of the study rnur.c
Krallfled me excefdlnnly, and made me
thank my stats for the hunt years of ""iav
and teaehlng whlr'i Had gven me som
thing of a reputation In the wml: which the
I.otui fluh wished mo to undertake.
1 looked at my walrh. Itnlf after nine
I had oer six hours linforc my ehBagemeut
with Mm. Smith Thero were many changes
lo be tnndn In the apartment on nre-iunt
of tho expected coming of Dicky'B mother.
She would nrrlvc on Tuerday. and thli wan
only tho Wednesday hefoie. I hnd lesa
than a week lo prepare for h"r.
Of course, Katie must bo told that Dlckv s
mother wnuld llvo Willi ur. Querly enough,
I dreaded to tell Iter. but. as I know that
I mual do so sooner or later. 1 wulked
to the kitchen with the detet initiation to get
Iho task out of tho way as soon nfl pos
sible. Ifatle was washing dishes, singing a lo
llsh folksong as uhn worked. Ah 1 en
tered the hltahcn sho stopped singing und
greeted me with n bright smile.
"f havo news for you, Kntlo," T said.
"Mr. Graham't mother Is coming to live
with us."
Kntle droppeit Mm cup sho was poll.ihing,
nml II shivered Into pieces on the Horn.
"Why, Kntlp!" t began, annoyed nt her
cnrelesiners, but n glance nt her fnco
utopped me. It was (inlverlrg with omo
lion as she slopped nnd picked up the pieces
"Please excuse, Missis Graham," nho
raid, "t so sorry I hrokn it. t buy you
nno I not know nt I do when you say
dot."
"Why should the cnm'ng of Mr. Graham's
mother nffcet you so, ICntle?" I nskod, be
wildered. ' Oh ! Missis Ornh.lm." Sho camo closo
to mo, nnd laid her hand on my arm.
"I so worry. I Idto you so much, hut 1 no

"Hut why, Katie?" 1 nskod, thoroughly

it's the key you want to curry all through the present year,
Mrs. Housewife; and you, Mr. Man-of -Large-Family. You know
to-morrow offers more chances than yesterday, and this key unlocks
a whole year of to-morrows. Opportunity's the cream of time.
You're half way there when you know where you want to go, so
don't continue to stand upon the muddy banks of Uncertainty. Step
inside A GUILDS STORE and breathe the oxygen of real common
sense grocery selling, and get the advantages of dealing with us
fixed firmly in your mind.
Nothing left to accident and hurry in A CHILDS STORE.
Trustworthy goods wherever you look, and unexpectedly low prices
on all of them. Sensible savings staring you in the face, and
courteous treatment at every turn. Our stores are an endless chain
of cause and effect always teaching the insistent lesson of
economy. "
There are follies as catching as contagious disorders, and it's
exceedingly foolish to pay exorbitant prices, even in these days of
distorted values. You don't have fo--unless you buy your groceries
in a higgledy-piggledy, slipshod way. You don't have to be a Croesus
to deal at A CHILDS STORE. It's just as easy as winking; and if
you'll use this Key of Economy throughout the year, we're sure you'll
freely admit that the size of a dollar depends on the way and
WHERE it is spent.
