i.irom every one and there was a decided
f Stiffness in her manner. But when the
injured feeling wore off she was her old
A-''-atural self. But not to tho ovtont nr

One hates poople to Ret "ruffled

THER.J3 are two kinds of girls, those
who spond and those who keep others
from spending. The girl who has the
saving habit Is usually lauded to tho
skies; ono Is told she will make an Ideal
wife. Sho will be a thrifty, efuclent man
ager, but whether ideals thrivo under
these conditions or not Is hard to know.
There Is tho woman who, even though
her husband is prosperous and well able
to indulgo her and his family In anything
they may want, pulls tho purse strings
tight and bemoans every penny spent.
She may keep him out of tho poorhouse,
but sho foils utterly by hor parsimony in
really making tho homo mean all that It
can nnd should mean.

PATSY KILDARE, OUTLAW
By JUDD MORTIMER LEWIS
I got up bright nnd early yesterday morn
ing and I nnd my father ato breakfast
together, but tho pancakes wero not so
very good because of something he left
out or put Into them when he stirred them
up. I didn't say anything, though I saw
him looking at mo a great deal. When v.o
got up from the tablo ho said, "You aro a
good sport, Patsy," and I was very proud.
When he had gono to bod to sleep after
his night watching I brushed my hair,
wiving a big enough place on thn looking
glass for mo to seo how It looked, and It
looked fine. Then Rowdy and I rambled.
We went farther than wo hnd ever been
before nnd wa crossed a big bridge, and
after that I mado chalk mnrki on the
sidewalk to find my way back by.
So wo went on and on. I stopped a good
many times where kids wero playing, but
none of them nsked mo to play with them,
so I went on and wo crossed a. vacant
lot nnd I nearly got run ocr on a railroad,
getting across ahead of un engine. Then
I turned around and watched the train go
by nnd there wero moro than fifty cars In
It. My father said he onco saw a man
cut In two under the wheels of a train,
but It could not have been this train, for
this train could not cut a man In two In
a million years, for Its wheels nro not
sharp at all.
Pretty soon I turned nround nnd went
back, nnd I was glad to get back, though
I was glad I went. For now I know since
I have traveled that kids nro nil nllko nil
over tho world nnd will not piny with me
wherever I go. So I went out swlmmln',
though I wns afraid nnd sat nnd looked
at the water a long tlmo before I went In
Hut finally I went In, nnd pretty soon I
wns not nfrald nt all. I found that T could
stay on top of tho water without ons foot
on the bottom, and 1 did It nnd It was
heaps of fun.
After while Wilbur Carpenter and his
Bang came and they saw me in tho water
nnd they whispered and I thought they
might bo going to throw things at mo nnd
If they had I wa going to havo Howdy eat
them nlle. Then Wilbur said. "Como on
out of that water." I said, "It ain't your
water" Ho said, "Well, you como on out.
Us boys want to go swlmmln'." I fnld,
"For tho love of Mike, go In swlmmln',
thero Is plenty of room. I ain't using the
whole ricr." Then ho said, "Wo can't come
In whllo you nre there." And I said, "Gee,
I nln't never bit no one yet." And ho said,
"Wo nln't got no bathln' suits." And I s.itd,
"Neither havo I. I Just wear my c cry
day dress" And ho said. "If wo get our
clothes wet we'll get licked. We will bounco
a roql: off your coco If you don't como out,"

Spring Suit for Girl
To lJi JMIIor o tromoit'a Page:
Dear Madam What kind of suit for spring
do you think my daughter should have? She
Is fifteen years old and larco for her aee. She
expects to so eamplnit In the summer, and
would want to wear the suit while traveling.
But I don't want to get anything quite aa
rough aa tweed. juts. . W.
Maaanor City, Pa.
One ot the good-looking sports suits of
Jersey cloth or tyrol wool would be Just tho
thing for your daughter. These suits, with
their boyish belted Jackets, are youthful
and very becoming to most types. The
cloth Is not as rough as tweed and yet is
aa serviceable.
Formal Regret

If your paper has not your nddrcss

of the paper. Use white note paper and

Be careful that the names of your hosts,
your own names and those of the bride and
bridegroom are each written on a separate

Gloves Should Be Removed
To ths Editor of Woman's Page;
Dear Madam Should a man always remove
hla g)ove txfore abaklng hands with a woman 1
Alao should he offer to shake hands or wait for
ner to put her band outT JACK.
It Is customary for a man to remove his
gloves before shaking hands with a woman,
although sometimes it Is very awkward to
do to, if for instance the man Is carrying
a parcel in one hand and cannot easily re
move'the glove on the other hand. In that
ase, he usually apologises briefly for his
glove and the apology Is accepted,
A man should always wait for a woman
to offer to shake hands before doing so.

We're very particular about the butter and egg part of our

Housewife, are just as exacting in buying these necessities, you've
the hall-mark of a good housekeeper.
Our butter comes from dairies we can confidently trust; and is
refrigerated to us several times each week. The eggs are newly
laid; quickly gathered and rushed along from nest to table. They're
the rich, full, meaty ones the kind that good hens lay.
