The carrying of one's purchases tends to economy ; it prevents uerd'ess pur chasing and it also compels the mer chant to select the food while you are present all this means that jou will obtain a better choice in quality, fully measured and just what jou desire. I have often visited tlie markrts in the foreign quarters nn(l watched the little Jewish.

It is more like a lounging rob", so trim and smart it is. and so graceful m its well-cut lines. And I am telling ou about them again, in case you were unab'e financially or other wise to buv one then. Another shop now has a limited number. They are made of Japanese crene, come made up nnd ready to embroider and can be had in o'd rose or gray. The design is in solid work and embroidered in rich contrasting co'ors with a touch of black ; nnd a belt of black cord makes the sort of costume you wish you could wear on the street. Thev are distinc tive nnd most becoming and arc priced at ?3.73 and S.1..10. When you spp the pancake set I saw today jou will agree with me that pan cakes, had thev any self-respect at all would iif-t naturally have to turn out golden brown nnd light. The spt consists of n batter spoon, a 'flipper" for turning them over, a small pan for holding grease and a piece of heavy wick for applying grease to the iron. hpoon nnd nipper are wooden-handled. The set costs only iine. It would make a perfectly splen did gift for the engaged girl, and really, you know, jou ought to havo a set for yourself. One shop is having a sale, for this week onlv, which ought to help you cut down this week's house cxnenscs. A special brand of coffee is selling for two pounas tor -'c. uocon may ne pur chased for .Ific for two tins, while two packages of tea pound size. I think are priced at -"ilic.

I hao never gone to any parties, thereby having no occasion to have u young man take me home. Now. Cynthia, I am invited to a party this Sunday. When being intro duced shall I repeat the name (boy or girl)? What are some interesting things to talk of? I seldom go any where and will not be able to talk of any previous pleasures. Is it better to talk while dancing than not, and who should start? Also, dear Cynthia, what must I know about a joung man before I allow him to take me homo? If I wish to meet uny of the crowd again, how shall I go about it? BLUE EYES. It is not necessary to repeat the name when introduced, simply bow and smile nnd say, "I'm very glad to meet j-ou." Do not talk when dancing, except to remark about the good floor; perhaps some pnssing comment. Try to draw the man out by finding what he likes to talk about. Have jou read any in teresting books of late? Talk of thoso if .vou have. You should have your father or brother call for j-ou at the dance. Do not let a stranger take you home unless he has been nsked by the hostess to take jou. Say to those you meet and like that you hope to see them again, and if any of the boys nsk if they mnv call give them permission to do so. but do not nsk any one at jour first part v. ait till you meet a second or third time.

Just think, when a fellow sajs something you uon r line to hear, jou smack him when he tays it. He's bound not to say it again. rf That's the onlv wav a "fellow can respect nny girl. But I'm a fellow who dances n a cafe in New York, and I never have met a cirl I could resneet. I would be very glad to meet a girl and say .she's the nicest girl I ever met. So. Broken -Hearted O., if you only know thnt fellows respect you very much jou would keep your "smacking habit up. And. mv, what I would like to tell jour friend. Any fellow who will smack a girl bark is not worthy to have a poor animal for a pet I'd be afraid he might hit it. I don't blame you when you say vou are tired of the wav he treats .vou. The next time he smacks you take my ad vice and shake him. There are plenty more better than he and jou might nroud of your Peking. From n.W on t'L a ipiiow inar win np I will get my parents to send the Evk nixo Public Ledger to me while I am in New York And I'm wishing jou better luck in the future. A STAR DANCER.

CINDERELLA'S DAUGHTER By HAZEL DEYO BATCHELOR Copurioht. 1020, hv the Public Ledger Company Feathering SYNOPSIS Virginia West, who becomes en gaged to Jimmy Anderson while she is in hoarding school, is very different from her friend of friends. Kathleen Foster, who becomes engaged at the same time jut for the fun of the thing. Mrs. West tries her best to break up the attachment between Jimmy and Virginia, but finds it im possible even after she confesses that she has run through her money and is depending on a rich marriage for Virginia to pull them out of difficul ties. Virginia goes to visit the An del sons, and Mis. West gos to visit n sister. Just before Virginia's mar riage Mrs. West writes of her sud den marriage to a Mr Train and their instant departure for Japan. In the meantime the Andersons are trying their best to make Viiginia into an ideal wife for Jimmy. I TTIRGINIA had wanted to go hunting V for apartments. She had dreamed ' . . , ... " , k: ..- .. ?l " "eAZ"f ." "f EXi them in her home. But she did none of those thin.s. Jimmy did not want her in the city alone and he had very little time to spare, and so she went with Mrs. Anderson and the selection of the apartment was Mrs. Anderson's own. Out of the ?."0 a week that Jimmv made, Mrs. Anderson thriftily planned a weekly stipend of not more tlinn $12 for rent. She earoiully explained to Virginia that time-worn phrase about i paying as mucli a montn lor rent as one s weekly salary, sne torn it witn a flourish as though it were a money saving idea that hhc had devised her self, and Virginia, who had never thought about weekly salaries and lents, meekly listened and acquiesced. There wasn't much in the way of an apariment that could be obtained for that money and when Virginia's heart leaned toward a two-room shabby place with a certain picturesnuencss about it that would make up for what it lacked in conveniences, Mrs. Anderson would not hear of it. "That bathroom is awful." she cx ruiimed. peering at the old-fashioned bot-water heater. "I don't approve of these old houses nnjwnj. AVhat vou want is a nice, clean, modern place. Even if it is small jou can be assuicd ! of conveniences." And it was Mrs. Anderson who ad vised the ugly little square -roomed apartment, shiny nnd new, but hope lessly lacking in attractiveness, and it was 'Mrs. Anderson who protested when Virginia wanted to poke about in an tique shops and second-hand auction rooms for old pieces that could be picked up for a song. "Old dirty furniture that isn't prac tical," fehe ridiculed gently.

She implied that she felt it her duty to lead Virginia, and any original ity in the girl was laid at the door or her queer bringing up, although Mrs Anderson never hurt Virginia by opeulj saving this to her. So the" little apartment was furnished with new furniture bought on the In slallment plnu. Mrs. Anderson did mi' approve of this, but there was not h i cl-e to do about it. To Virginin cv en tiling was inexplicably sordid. She hated the place and she hated the fur niture. She felt as though bhc were in a net that was gradually drawing in about her. Virginia had a sunshiny nature, but there were depths in it that in her shel tered childhood had never been sounded. Jimmy Anderson hnd brought her love, but it had been love itself thnt had lured her on rather than the more in tense feeling for him. She was en thralled with tho glistening wings of love, enchanted by the idea of it. But when she had promised Jimmy to marry him she had not thought of love in an tigy little apartment and life with a Jimmy who was strangely practical like his mother most of the time, who was verj' human and who wore the shining armor of her dreams only at very rare interval. Virginia thought a great dfal dining these last doyt, and if she had not been so inexperienced nnd alone. without money nnd without nny one but I ti, Andersons to turn to, she might never have married Jimmy. There were times when she loved him, and there were others wheu she was terrified at life and felt that she couldn't go on. Jimmy knew nothing of this. Like his 'mother, he was self-sufficient, with no small amount of conceit in his na ture, lie loved Virginia ami was sure that she loved him in exactly the bams way. lie did not stop to realize that Viiginia was as different from him as da.v is from night, that she had pos- lbintlcs in ner nature tnat, once de veloped, would make her an astounding i woman. They were married in the ugly old liiing room at the Andersons one after noon in early October, Virginia wore one of her straight white frocks aud a big white hat. She held an armful of yellow Powers which sue had picked j herself. Mrs. Anderson said that they made her look' like an actress. Tomorrow The beginning of married life.

Do j-ou get awake in the morning thinking, "Whnt is this burden that oppresses me?" And then docs the weight come over you relieve y6u for a minute nnd afterward do press j-oti like the third rainy day in suc cession? Sometimes it's a telephone call that you know is going to bo em barrassing (breaking an engagement with some one who "won't take no for an answer"). Sometimes it's a busi ness letter that is rather complicated ; Uometlmes It's a misunderstanding that must be handled very delicately In order to bo "made up" satisfactory and often it is nothing more serious than cleaning the living ,room. But it weighs j-ou down. You don't know how to go about it. That's tho trouble (jou catch at that as an nllbl for jour cross dis position, while the difficulty is still un solved). .You don't know how to go about it, how to start it; it's so Impos sible to get at. When I feel that way I remember the words of a school teacher who had just given an unusually long lesson for tho next day, "I know it's long," she said, in nnswer to protests from her class. "But it won't be so bnd if you'll just do it. The trouble with all of you is that you sit down und mope and grum ble because it's too long and you can't do It aud you haven't time. The only way to do it is to do it. Y'ou waste so much time saying how hard it is that you don't have any time to find out whether it is hard or not." THOSE words apply to so many other things than lessons in school.
