"CINDERELLA'S DAUGHTER
By HAZEL DEYO BATCHELOIt
Coptriff'it, 192Q vu the Publ.o Ledger Company
SYNOPSIS
Kathleen Foster and Virginia West,
whose Ihes merge at boarding school,
are still friendly after life has touched
both girls. Kathleen's life has staged
piactically free from trouble because
of her selfishness, but Virginia, at the
age of tieciity. has known more than
her share of the world's sonows; she
ha married a poor man, has stayed
with him ihrounh his illness and death
and hat given birth to a baby qirl too
late for the father to arc it. Kathleen
ha been engaged, but broke the en
gagement even though she (aied for
the man, uccnii.'r fie iim poor, llr
in the miantime has inherited a legacy
and a business fiom a iclattcc and
Kathleen is willing to cneountgc him
again. Viiqinia has determined to use
her one talent aud to go on the stage
to support herself and her baby.
B
ILL took both girls to dinner at an
evelnsire restaurant nnd Virginia
could not help noticing Kathleen's little
proprietory attitude. She deferred to
him iu nearly cverj thing, and wbeu she
wanted particular to impress 'any
thing upon his mind she laid her slim,
white, perfectly manicured fingers for
a moment on his arm. It was all very
charming, but it brought a dull ache
to Virginia's heart, and she did not
know exactly why until she analyzed
her fec'ings later. Virginia kept her
own fingers in hcr lap as much as pos
sible. Not that they were any the less
slim and aristocratic than Kathleen s,
but Virginia had washed and ironed
manv of Barbara's buby things and even
some" of hcr own, and her Jingers were
no longer so smooth and well groomed
as they had been.
When Virginia mentioned hei wish
to go on the stage, Kathleen's attitude
changed subtly aud she immediately be
gan to discourage her. There was u
faint patronage about her, too, that
made Virginia lift her chin a little.
"Oh, Virginia, jou couldn't do that,
Kathleen said, buttering a roll daintily.
"I don't know that I could either,
but I'm goiug to try because there's
nothing else. Could you suggest any
thing else?"
"I never thought uiutn auout vvorK
ing. Of course, there are clerks in
stores, but you couldn't do that, could
you?"
There was n silence during which Bill
seemed to be thinking. Finally he
spoke. "I believe it's worth a try. All
those stories about girls going ou tho
stage that used to be told have gone
by the boards, and Virginia certainly
has talent." His eyes grew reminiscent
and he grinned. "Why, I can remem
ber that night ot tne scnooi piay an
plainly ! Virginia in those green trunks
singing that 'humbug' song. Somehow
it did not seem like the Virginia wc
know she was an elf that night."
Kathleen's eyes were cast down. If
they bad been lifted at that moment a
budden envious light could have been
glimpsed in tbeni. Every one had raved
so foolishly about Virginia's part in
that play, as though it were something
,.nnSnl. It was absurd. And now
Virginia imagining that bhe could go on I
the stage una iiiuku guuu, om mu en

"IrS, UUC ine scnooi jiiuy is oue iiiiu

ment when Bill touched hcr hand, every
bit of honest feeling that Kathleen bad
ever felt for her died in n sudden wave
of jealous fury. A perfect storm of
emotion raged iu Kathleen's heart. Were
ill her careful plans to draw Bill back
into hcr life to be cpoiled now by this
whining, big-ej-cd girl? Was this prat
ing of u talent to fascinate Bill more
than her own subtle attractions? She
had mado no headway at nil at lunch.
Her careful dressing so as to throw
''iiginia as much iu the shade ns pos
sible had gone for naught. Bill had not
seemed to notice any difference in their
appearance. If things were going to
happen this wuy it would be necessary
to hum things. She would have to bur-
prise Bill as she had that night at
school when he had taken her in his
arms. Once that happened she would
never let him go agaiu. It would have
to be soon. Then, too, there was the
disquieting feeling that Viiginia might
make good on the stage, that she might
soon be out of the Cinderella class, and
that the talent that every one scenied
to think she had might develop hcr into
i vtrv fascinating woman.

Kitchen Shower
A novel shower was held recently for
a prospective bride. A rope on a pulley
extended from the kitchen to the room
where the guests were seated and while
one girl plajcd, "Oh, Promise Me," on
the piano, another girl worked the pul

bj oue, daintilj- wrapped aud fastened
to the rope with spring clothespins
The bride-elect received nnd opened each
gift as it came and much merriment
ensued.
Iu the dining-room the tablo was
decorated in blue and white, with blue
candles, and nut cups surmounted by
miniature kettles and pans. Each guest
was given a surprise package by the
bride which afforded great amusement.
The dishes on the table were all in
tended for the bride, nud consisted of

Baby's Things
In wnshing fine flannels, such as
baby's little shirts and petticoats, al
wajs add a little borax to the water,
about a tablespoonful to a gallon. Flan
nels should be washed in warm (not
llot) soapy water. They should be
"insed in lukewarm water, to which
'hould be added a little amonia, which
will aid materially iu keeping thcia soft
aud nice. Do not wring flannel at all.
but hang them up and let the water drip
from them. This method of cleansing
and drying will cause the minimum
amount of shrinkage.

PUTTING OFF THAT TRIP
TO THE DOCTOR'S OFFICE
Why Is It So Much Easier to Go On Suffering With An Ail
ment and Ashing Everybody but the Right Person About It?
THH,bubjcct that brings the most
spontaneous laugh from renders of
the joke columns or audiences at com
edy movies is the failure of human
nature to make Itself go to a doctor.

the morning, counting the minutes until
the time when he can see his dentist.
We sec him again at 0:."0, wandering
slowly, uncertainly toward the doc
tor's office, bis courago and the tooth
ache, its jaw swollen to twice its size,
with each ,tep. lie reaches the door,
hesitates and discovers that ho sud
denly has no more' pain than ho has
nerve. So he goes by. About ten btcps
further ou the ache comes back agaiu
harder thanecvcr. but it is too late,
then: the doctor has gone out, or;some
one has takcu his appointment 'time.

State Marriage Laws
To thts Vdltor of Woman's raac:
Dear Madam Would you kindly pub
lish in your paper full information in
regards to getting married in Dojlcs
town, Pa.
How long must one from nnothcr
state hold license before usable?
A BRIDE-TO-BE.
The state laws require, that both
parties appear in applying for u mar
riage license. If either is under
twenty-one, the father, mother or
guardian must appear to givo con
sent. The license must be applied for
at the county seat, and as Dojles
town is a county scat, that simplifies
that. The license may bo used im
mediately nnd is good for sixty daj-s.
She Writes Poetry
To the Editor of Woman's raac:
Dear Madam I have come to vou in
hopes that jou might be able to help me
in m.v dilemma. I write poetry oh,
just "oodles" of it and though I have
never had a verse rejected, 1 never re
ceive a recompense. Of course, I havo
ouly sent to newspapers.
I write by moods. Some of my poetry
is jocuiar ana some calm anu dignitied.
It is full of originality, if I do say
so myself, nnd all of my friends and
teachers have urged me to have a collec
tion published.
I will hero quote one I wrote last
year:
My Flag
"My flag has eyes iri a Held of blue,
And each cje winks, 'Be true, be
true!'
It has big wide bars leading into the
lano
Of bravery, fiicndship and courage,
too.
The llttlo eyes arc the stars of heaven,
And they shine to mc through jour
sky of blue ;
The big wdie bars lead to victory.
lieveaiing tno beauty of heaven and
you.
Do you know of nny really nice mag
azine that has a use for this line of
verse? Please don't say I am too ab
surd. This dreaming is m life, and my
verse is but the expression of n caged
bonl. M. L. S.
I shall certaiuly not say that you are
"too absurd." I think you nre very wise
to go ahead and write j'our poems when
ever the mood strikes you, no matter
how self -conscious jou might possibly
feel about it. Not eiery one has this
gift and those who hnc it should en
courage it as much as possible. I hope
you will he very successful.
. Magazines like Harper's, Scribncr's,
and Century could use your poetry, I
should think. It would not hurt to try
them, anyhow, and if one rejects your
work try another. If none of them has
room or use for them, send them to one
of the syndicates which I am inclosing.
I am biirc jou will hnc good luck if
you btick tp it.

Wo nil laugh at it because we- nil
understand it We've nil been through
it at some time or other, with some
kind of nu ailment. We get so worried
about something that seems to be wrong
that we can hardly smile, and wo say,
"I must see a doctor about this." The
days go on nnd encu morning we get up
thinking: "Now, today 1 will go I"
But the day goes past, rapidly, as days
go now, and we are too busy, or we
have to go to the jtber cud of town,
or wo forget.

that they don't know, that we'll hav,a

we know who has had the same trouble.
"What did you do when you had It?"
we nsk her. But it doesn't get us
any further because she gives the same
old answer: "Why. I went to a doc
