alitht and the ruby mazing on ner nn

Winona was astounded nt the change
In her All her indifference had dis
appeared and she and Winona shopped
tirelessly The bought shell-pink liu
Itric, and embroidered fripperies, lacy
petticoats and cobweb stockings, shoes
ltd slippers, a Chinese wedding robe for
Laurel to wear as a negligee, and many
smart street clothes. While she was
(hopping Laurel was radiant, but sonv-
itta's, after she had been with TJurton,
Winona noticed a troubled look in her
jfs. Laurel could not get lrsetl to
Burton as a lover, he was so distant.
so cold, so apparently unimpressed by
me tact tnat tucir wedding was only
few days off. He was nlwnys cour
teous, always consldciate, but always
sure of himself. In fact, he was ex
actly an he had been befoie he had
aekod Laurel to marry him.
And then one evening nt a dinner a
Mrs. Kearcy. who sat opposite Han let.
Long, and who delightid in gossip, nout
a bombshell across the tnble,
"Who is the beautiful joung woman
that your brother-in-law is seen with
so often?" she nsked with thnt purring
note in her voice that is so obvious to
another woman.
Harriet raised her browy. Centuiles
of i good breeding prevented lier from
showing any surprise. Her attitude
expressed a slight interest, that was
all.
"f really don't know." she nnswered
languidly, and the subject was engulfed
in a sudden argument that snrang up
about current politics. The, next morn
ing, however, she went to Granville's
office and out of n clear sky nsked iu
that direct way that was so much a part
of Harriet: "Gran, who is this woman
you are seen with so much?
There was a silence while Harriet
leaned forward eagerly waiting for an
answer, expecting she knew not what.
"She's the woman I'm going to
marry," Burton said evenly.
Harriet sat hack in her chair witn a
little gasp.
"nut. Uran, who is she?"
"She's a young newspaper woman."
"A newspaper woman! Who arc her
f amity?"
"X believe she comes from the nest,
Burton returned slowly. ,
Harriet clenched her hands until the
fnwu-colorcd gloves nearly crneked. She
was furious, angry at. the fact that no
had not seen fit to tell her Oiis plans,
and anxious for the outcome of tmsinad
and totally unconventional altitude of
her hitherto ultra-conventional brother-
iu-law.

Boarding House for Jewish Girl
To the Editor 0 Woman's Page.
Dear Mudam Could you inform mc
of any boarding house for young girls
where I would be assured of reasonable
comfort? I should like to move, but do
not know just how to go about it. I
make about $7fi a month, so the board
would have to bo'reasonablp.
I am a Jewess, and the reason I am
writing this fact is because some houses
do not admit girls of this faith and .1
want to make sure. It. L.
The Itcbeccn GraU Club, at "JO
North Sixth street, has a boarding houso
for .Jewish girls. In case it is filled I
am sure Miss Smuljan. who is in
charge, will recommend n nice, inex
pensive pined for you.

To Remove Snow Spots
To the Cdttor of "IVomau's Page:
Dear Madam Please tell me how to
rcinovo water spots made by-snow on
taupo gray radium silk taffeta. Would
it be advisable to take it to a cleaner,
as the skirt is just new nnd has never
been worn ns yet, or is it ruined?
MILS. J. H. L.
Ordinarily water spots can be re
movedby wetting a piece of the same
material with lukewarm water, placing
it over the spots and pressing with
a moderate iron until dry. Perhaps it
would be safer with the radium silk to
try the experment on nn extra piece
before touching the skirt, or you could
try it on the under side of the okirt or
somewhere where it would not show if
it was not successful. It it does not
work I'm afraid you will havo to lake
it to a cleaner. But 1 am sure he
would bc able to get the spots off. T
hate to think thnt a perfectly new skirt
would have to be given up before it was
worn!

From her table near the door Miss
Marjorie Clark pushed from her u lit

dark glance out over the room. A few
pairs of too sinuous dancers circled

He straightened, regniding her sol

en Guests Dropped ia to Stay
A WeeK or Two
WHAT a cheery bustle of coming and
going there always was in the de
lightful Louisiana1 household where ? Aunt
Jemima was cook! Such confusion in
carrying all the carpet-bags and hat-boxes
in and outl Such a pleasant flurry of
excitement in greeting unexpected arrivals
such cordial last-minute efforts to urge
the parting guest to stay a bit longer!
And yet there was never any commotion
about caring for them all though a
whole family might "happen in" for a
lengthy visit. There were plenty of extra
rooms in the big pillared mansion
plenty of chickens and butter and eggs
and rice and other good things to serve
any number at any time! And always, at
a moment's notice, Aunt Jemima could
whisk up a batch of her famous pancakes
the like of which you'd never taste in
all the old South!
HowAuntJemima's cakes didtaste! So
rich-flavored, so fragrant! And how light
they were, with the most delicate curly
edges! No wonder the great piles of the
tender hot cakes 'set before Col. Higbee
arid his guests would disappear in no time!
The housewife of 1920 finds that her
guests, too, will go away singing the
praises of her breakfasts if she gives them.
Aunt Jemima's Pancakes. For nowadays
Aunt Jemima's own pancake recipe is
prepared for distribution in packaged form.
Specially ground flours, baking-powder
even milk in powdered form come mixed
in just the right proportions. Any grocer
can supply you with Aunt Jemima Pan
cake Flour and with it you cannot fail to
make pancakes as rich and light
as those that made Colonel Hig-
bee's plantation home the haunt
of all the Southern epicures!
