STAIIT THIS STOBY TODAY TO JANB the loss of her husband meaht only release r from him for ever. She did not stop to think whether she ought to rejoice as she did or not, she was simply glad like a child, to bo free. To the fact that life stretched ahead Indefinitely nnd that hard work and the care of little Joy would doubt less be her lot forcrer, she gate no thought at all. Jane was no fool, she was not as art less as she seemed. In a way It was somewhat of a pose with her, nnd when she saw that people liked It slio Intensi fied It all she could. She generally used her most artless manner when she wanted to Impress people most. She loved to hear people say that she was such a joyous child, and that her life had been so sad. Jane was not like some girls who would have shuddered on ay from the memory of such an experience she had had, she enjoyed too much being petted and pitied. All this does not mean that Jane was an adventuress, she was nothing of the kind. She was really a child, precocious beyond her years, jane grew to learn that little Joy served her purpose, too, lu the schemo of things. When it was noised about that there was a baby to support people always wanted to do more and Jane loved being fussed over. In her heart of hearts she made no moro sacrifice for Joy than was absolutely necessary. She did not do any more than she could help, In upite of the fact that she loved the child dearly. There are some mothers who are fanatical in regard to their children, they sacrifice because they deem it a privilege, they love to martyr themselves, they love to tell people that it is necessary to do without things so that John and Mary can have them. Every one knows' that type of mother. But Jane was not essentially the mother type. She loved Joy dearly, but she thought taking care of her a nuisance. After Helen and Ruth had left her that night she fell to thinking about what Helen had said, and she felt vaguely Indignant that Helen should have spoken to ber that way before Ruth. Jane knew that she had Impressed Ruth and she wanted to go on doing so. Joy was lying warm and cozy in the clean bed which Helen had made up so carefully, and now Jane looked around the dlsordeted room. A per fect passion of work suddenly seized her nnd hc flew around humming to herself, and did more work than she had done in weeks. When she was finished she went to bed tired and happy, with not a thing on her mind. For a few days she did make" a con scious struggle to keep up to a certain standard, and she got up an hour earlier every morning to bathe Joy and to dress herself with the assar ts ance that everything was all right. Then she slumped again. She over slept one morning, and needed every minute of her time to get down to work. That day Joy received only a hasty mopping from a washcloth and was hustled into a pair of rompers without any ceremony. " "When Mrs. Mapes came upstairs to see if the baby was all right, she found a rather disgustingly dirty room, with Joy's clothes as well es Jane's thrown all over the chairs and bed. ' At the office Jane was conscious that she was badly slung together. Two hooks were off her skirt and her waist was badly soiled around the cuffs. The immaculate cleanness of Miss Jqnes, one of the stenographers, shamed her carelessness. "But then," Jane reflected, "Miss Jones is the type that must look that way. Nevertheless that did not prevent Jane from feeling horribly humiliated and very angry when she overheard a conversation between Miss Jones and one of the proofreaders. "You'd think, wouldn't you," snid the proofreader, a sallow, unhealthy looking girl with a mean disposition, "that Mrs. Knowles would take bet ter care of her appearance." Miss Jones was a peacable girl who did not like to gossip, and she made an evasive reply. Jane's checks burned. "I wouldn't spenlc of It at nil If it weren't so noticeable," persisted the other girl, "but it doesn't speak very well for the ofllce force. Even her finger-nails are dirty." Jane's anger leaped up and she saw August Sale Gas Ranges & Refrigerators This is the last week of this special sale, in which we ore making: gome very unuaual offers in gas ranges and re- frigerators.

J It is a mistake to believe exquisitely dainty silk underwear Ls only for the woman of means. Because of its durability and laundering possi bilities It ls really an economy A VERY usual conjecture is that the dainty crepe de chine and georgette underthlngs that you see displayed temptingly In shop windows are ap propriate and possible only for the woman with a very large dress allow ance. The woman who does not wear that sort of lingerie usually feels con vinced that it would be the height of ex travagance to indulge in it. But that is where she is mistaken, for those very things are really an economy. These exquisitely dainty garments of red. It was only by a violent effort of will that sho managed to restrain herself. How dared this girl, this cheap copyrcadcr, criticize her, how dare she? But underneath this resent ment was the rsgue shame that through her own carelessness she had made such a thing possible. The humiliation followed Jane about all that day, and she surreptitiously stole into the rest room and remedied some of the noticeable points in her lack of grooming. (Tomorrow, Jane's door.) Romance knocks at georgette or crepe de chine can be wnshed at home. You can do It your- , self iu the privacy of your o,wn apart ment. They dry ery quickly nnd nil , the pressing they need can be done w ith , n little electric iron. More than half the women who live in hotels actually do this sort of thing.

Not, however, the gold bands and bangles you probably urc thinking of. One shopkeeper has ju;t returned from Faris, and back comes the report of queer, Oriental looking bracelets of large beads, made at a famous and well-known pottery. One, for instance, consists of pale pink beadi, quite large and round, strung on an elastic cord which enables you to wear it at whatever distance from your hand you prefer. A few of these bracelets arc priced at $1. I am sure you will be interested in seeing them. The chains I saw today look hand made, and are lovely. They consist of tiny bends in gold or silver, with larger beads strung among them at Intervals. One, for Instance, has tiny gold beads requiring nt least two dozen to make an Inch, and then every here and there you will find a glowing yellow bead. Another has small silver beads, looking like the little steel ones with which we used to mnke beaded bags. And here and there among these you will sec a large bead of pate pink. Those I saw were priced at $2.(30.
