The Woman's Exchange WANAMAKER'S WANAIMAKER'S U lakf- a i" STAItT THIS STOKY TODAY TTR8. MOOIin took to wntrlilns J-'-L things that linppcncil. Not Hint she wanted to npy, she hated herself for the feeling that Hcatrlee had given her and yet the was unable to shake It off. Of course when one Is looking for things to happen they generally do, nnd little things that might hnve passed by un noticed were now greatly magnified in Mrs. Moore's eyes. For instance, she noticed how George 1'vcrett followed Ruth about with his eyes, although she was bound to ndmit that Until did not return these surreptitious looks herself, but maintained for the most part a thoroughly sane attitude toward the . boy. Another thing thnt was quite obvious was Dot Sallsuurj's attitude toward Scott. Scott wns no match for her at nil; the was too clever for him and she made her plans cnutlounlv . Everything that she did was calculated, and yet she was uttcrlj nnivc, pretending to be unsophisticated and jrt using the tac tics of a woman ot the world. Often Mrs. Moore would scold herself half angrily, half laughing! when Dot was plajing with Scott. "I'm Imagining things," she would say to herself. "Ilentrlcc his put my nerves on edge." And then she would wonder just what Dot hoped to accom plish by this little flirtation of hers. It was nt a beach supper that some thiiic happened to actually vvorrj Mrs. Moore. T'p to that time she had looked at matters broadlv. She was that won derful thing, n fair womnn; she rrnli7cd quite well that she must not hold the reins of government too tightly, which was wise, bei ause the ounger set in this, the twentieth ccnturj, cannot be driven. There were eighteen of them in three cars, nnd they left nbout 4 o'clock in the afternoon with picnic baskets, ther mos bottles and all the rest of the para phernalia necessary to a picnic supper. Things began rather well. Crowded together, wedged in as tightly as pos sible, there was a gay camaraderie that was general. They talked back and forth, they snng, there was an absence of subtle under currents, it was almost as though every one had agreed that a picnic was no place for the carrying on of flirtations. As it happened Iluth was not even sitting next to George Everett. He was not even in the same car, but seated between Heatriec nnd Grace i-iovctt in the car behind, he seqmed to be having a good time. Mrs. Moore could not know that it was not because he had tried his level best to be with lluth, but because she had seen to it that they were not together. There had been times of late when Iluth had been some what worried about George. She bad been frightened bj his intensity, un able to llirt with him lightly when he looked at her with n certain expression In his eyes. She certainly did not want him to fall In love with her; that would be an unexpected denouement. Dot, however, was looking out for things, and what Mrs. Moore did not see was the fact that Dot in the Inst car was sitting very close to Scott, and that she was unusually attractive, almost good-looking with n (laming color in her cheeks, nnd her constant chatter. They built a fire on the bench and ate supper just at twilight. Afterward there wns more singing. George had recaptured Iluth and they were sitting side by side. Beatrice, lying flat on her young bnek, snt up suddenly and turned to Grace Lovett. "Where is Dot?" Grace looked around helplessly, at the crowd on the beach. Grncc always gave that little nrr of helplessness whenever she did aiivtlilng. She had found it successful ith men, that is for the most part. "I haven't seen her lately." "Neither have I. Mother," raising her voice so that others could hear, "where is DotV" Ruth looked up quickly. She had been too lazily content for the time be ing to notice an thing. Now she was instantly nlert. Where was Dot? She was not anywhere on the beach. Aud where was Scott? Thej had disappeared together. Of comae the Incident was nlmost im mediately covered up. Mrs. Moore made some laughing remark, and the talking and low singing began again. Iluth forced herself to be natural. Not for the world Voulil she have given Beatrice the satisfaction of knowing that she cared one way or another. Tune passed, fifteen minutes, half an hour, an, hour, and some one mentioned going home. Then out of the darkness appeared two figures, nnd Ruth's heart bent frantically. Not so long ago, she had watched Dot S.ilisburj nnd another man come up together out ot the gloom. Then the mnn lnd been dome one Iluth hardly knew, this time it was her husband. Can't De Done To the tilltor ot the Woman' rant: Dear Madam Will you kindly answer how 1 can posslbl regain a lotton voile dress. I djed It an Indefinite shade of old roc purple instead of pale pink. I would like to make it pink again omen iiAHHin. There Is no waj to make the dress light pink again. A garment is nlvvavs dyed darker never lighter. A dark voile dress is always servlcablc, so jou can probably make good use of yours. Will you kindly send your inmc and address so that Miss Rose can send n personal reply to jour second question? None of her answers arc printed in the paper. Clothes for Week-End To the Keillor ot the Womon' Page Dear Madam I expect to go away soon to spend the week-end at the sea shore home of some friends of my hus band. I have never met them and there fore feel a little shj. I would like to know what clothes I ought to take, as n) husb.ind says I must look right. Still I am only taking 11 suitcase. Thanking )oti many times for an early repl). AVOHRIED. If you have a dark silk dress, wear that on the trnln so that )ou will look nice in arriving. Have dainty collar nnd cuffs on it. Wear a good hat and put It in n paper bag on the train so it won't get soiled. Tnkc with jou either some sort of a pretty summer dress to wear in the da) time, or a goodlookiiig white skirt and shirt waist. Then for evening take a dress) summer frock such as a georgette crepe or an organdie or very fine lawn. If there is a little part) given or you go out Saturday night then )OU will be all ready.

C. 8 , who wishes to find a good home for a little female maltese kitten which she cannot conveniently keep, may I ask her to send it to a painless oblivion? I nm fond of cats nnd, being at home most of the summer, my heart aches for the stray pets, coddled all winter and either turned out to shift for themselves in summer or left to the questionable care of some one who does not bother much with them. The females are the worst sufferers. Children arc thoughtlessly cruel and some sickening cases of their methods hnve been forced Upon my notice. Only Snturdny I'vvns obliged to send n beau tiful maltese cat or, rnthcr, what had been a fine' one, all bones now, an e)e gouged out and a skinned tail wth a tight string wound around it, to be put out of its misery. A hurry call to a certain society which atends to such matters had pussy put out of its misery within half au hour. This is but one case. Do not turn the kitten out to ill treat ment; beter end it's troubles now. E. W. C. It is rather n coincidence that before your letter came today, E. W. C, the article in the right-hand cornei of the woman's page today had been written. Birthday Party Games To the Fdltor ot the Woman's rage Dear madam Could you let me have a few games for a birthday part) of children between the ages of six nnd eight years? Your page is delightful. I am a steady reader. READER. The games have been mntled and. 1 trust, will help the little ones to have a good time. If you had given me a few days more )our choice would have been wider. .
