Another Letter From "Kensington"

Lonesome Writes Again
OrCynthla please print this to
'Sure Outta Luck." I felt very much
dlsannolnted In readlne vour rnlv tr
my letter. Tou svem to think more of
your other answers than mine, but of!
course you're your own boss. I suppose.
I don't mean any hard feelings. It's
like this. I would think all day about
your answer, then I would come homo
from work and Just keep wishing for the
aper boy to bring the Kveni.no Pubuo'
iEDGER. So When T ttnw inv ntiHU'or I
and the rest I was sort of disappointed.
You know you can't explain much on
paper.
You also talk about watclilng my
brother with a girl. TYell, It seems
funny to say, but my brother Is a couplo
of years older than I am (he's Rolng on
twenty-one) and you couldn't talk about
a girl to him. as he doesn't bother with
any. The reason I say it seems funny
is that most fellows generally around
twenty or twenty-one have two or three
Blrls: but as for that, plenty of girls
asked about him, but "nothing doing."
He lets them go. Well. "Sure Outta i
Luck." I really don't know what to say,

letter. It was a very nlco letter, but I

Adventures
With a Purse
W
may be, if one's hands are red and
work -roughened, one cannot feel per
fectly at case. And many persons'
hands nre so delicate and tender, the
least little work will mar their nntural
whiteness. And so I want to write of a
preparation for the hands that has been
used for many, many years. I cannot.
in fact, tell you how many years it has
been since Mildred George's wife, you
know and I used to play together, und
I used to regard her hands enviously,
which she treated so carefully with this
same preparation. One simply rubs a
bit on one's hands after washing, nnd
they keep firm, cool and white. This
preparation can be bought for forty
cents u bottle.
If you will examine a man's shirt you
will find that its making is not a very
difficult matter, were it not for tho neck
band. That's the, part that complicates
matters. But. if .inn could buy these
neckbands separately. In all sizes, for
ten cents each, wouldn't you feel very
differently about attempting a silk shirt
for some special person's birthday?
Well, you can get these bnnds, just hs
I have described them, und they are
very easily attached to the shirt.
One shop hns a very conveniently
shaped strainer. It Is the blr.o that
would fit the average saucepan, butMn
stead of being full fize. like n lid. it Is
only half a circle. One holds it over
nne-half the nan in which are tho
berries, or the water in which the pota
toes have boiled, and the water comes
pouring through the holes, leaving tho
contents of the pan right where they
belong in the pan. You will be glad to
have one of these, which can be bought
for twenty -live cents.

A Glance
Itarbnra Knight, the leader of the
younger set, (s apparent! about to
walk ntt with Keith Orant, the catch of
the season.
IF ANY of her friends had ever
dreamed that somo day Barbara
Knight would face any kind of a prob
lem, that she would suffer as only nn
unhappy woman can. they would have
been more than surprfsed. they would
j havo been
astounded and highly In
Every one conceded that
-ft,i,.in,
creuuious.
Barbara had the right to happiness, that
she had been born with a silver spoon
In her mouth. Every one, Including tho
members of Barbara's family, conspired
to make her way easy for her, to sit at
her feet nnd worship, to Rive her the,
cream on the top of the bottle Instead
of shaking It up and dividing evenly.
From tho time when Barbara was a
child Jasper Knight had loved her bet
ter than he loved either of the other two
children. She liad Inherited his strong
will, and she always knew what she
wanted nnd got It. Eleanor. Barbara's
younger sister, was n pretty, fluffy
thing, with un averoge amount of gray
matter under her blonde cur ing iiair.
Kenneth, wlio was
a year oiner man
Barbara, was a quiet. ra)her studious
tvno of bov, very fond of his mother,
who adored him. und as different from
his sparkling sister as day is from
n limn n.irhnrri had though., of
-i- nM.i ,frt rurfi vniinirer iiinii
eolnir to college. Pollcge was quite.
fashionablo these days, but It mean,
four years of very hard work, and some
serious thought about life. Barbara had
brains, brains to be cultivated, but life
had been murle so cay for her that It
was more fun to ni her sparkle, for
social purposes, and he bad final y de
cided on a very fashionable "llulsnlng
school," where she met other girls from
wealthy families aud queened it over
them all. , . ,
In her heart of hearts Barbara voted
the girls she met at school stupid, They
seemed to be all cut from the snine
pattern. They chattered prettily of
affairs thev were bAiiitlfully groomed,
they plated' tennis, coif, knew tho latest
swimming ttorke, drove, a car, and rodo
horseback. Thev always woro exactly
. I the right thing. lor sport wear.
Simple SKinx "" r icuwin ''(
silk blousos, low-heeled shoes, nnd thick
silk or lu-ay woolen stockings.
I'ntler Uielr soft sport hats, their hair
was always quite perfect; they always
looked cool. Imperturbable, able to with
stand anv kind of wear and tear. Thev
were brought up to be that way; their
social cult trained them to bu pretty
automatons. It even went so far ns
to teach them to talk on certain topics
of tho day in a perfectly ladylike, well
bred manner without getting excited.
Most ot these gtrls wero cut from u
pattern, emotion vaH something to be
suppressed ; It was not well-bred. In-.ii.-triiif.llt
v .ittnf.t itni'M broke over the
barriers "of training, as In Barbara'h
case, hut even Barbara was a product
of the modern school, and in moat
ways was hlghlv conventional.
At school there had been one girl
who was different, one girl with burning
Ideas, and what she called a "career'
before her. She hated the school she
bated the girls, she stayed there against
her will nnd wasjlke a ruffled mocking
bird among a lot of yellow canaries.
i Barbara did not into her, out sno unco
to talk to her. She liked to listen to
her Ideas, she even liked tho feeling of
' unrest that they stirred in her own
I heart. She know that Ellse Bartlett did
1 not upprove of her niry more than she
did of the others. She called them all
'social parasites, but whllo tho rest re-
i fused to listen, Barbara, took it all In
I
made von mlplit mnke It Vourself by
working together the different varieties
ot nowcrs that you may buy in separate
i bunches.
The center hat is "f rough straw
trimmed with mi ostrich feather ex
tending from the center front to the
hack, with the tin nt the back nnd the
feather placed with the reverse side
out.
The hat at the right Is of leghorn,
and though this type is expensivo It is
u good investment, for next year you
might have it reblocked In next season's
shape.- It Is trimmed with largo rod
velvet flowers ncross the front nnd a
green ribbon nt the back forming
streamers.

and thought about It a llttlo bit when
she had nothing elro to do.
"What nre you going to do when you
leave school?" she had asked Barbara
once.
Barbara considered a moment, and
then flushed. The question left her for
a moment helpless.
"I can tell you," Ellse went on,
"You're going to play around for a while,
be a shining social light, and then you're
going to make a brilliant marriage, and
keep on being a social light, nnd life
won't touch you nt all. It's a shame, bo
cause you have brains. You're not llko
the others; you ought to suffer, to do
things."
Barbara nlwava remembprfil li o-lrri
flaming black eyes, the fervor of her
speech, and the scathing tono In her
voice. Kllse wns a little Bolshevik, and
did not stay at the ochool after that
term, but sho was the very first person
to stir Burbara's confidence In herself,
to make her wonder and think. It was
only for a short tlmo. but tho Incident
came back to Barbara later In- life when
she discovered that life was not sun
Bhlno for every ono. but for a favored
few who were sheltered, protected and
kept from facing the truth ; that Ilfo was
ume.reni irom mere existenco and thnt
girls In her own crowd were kept from
iiiuiHiug una leeung ro mat thev might
bo kept from suffering. Thcro came a I
time wheir Barbara suffered, when even
the protection that had always sur-
uuiiuru ner couio. not Keep lire from '
dealing her an unexpected blow.

father and mother nnd 'wo other chil
dren besides this said girl left America,
before the war over started. I u n0,J
know whether her father was a citizen
of America or not. . ,

would llko to have my cousin come aim
live with me , In America, and she is

You would have to write to the United
States Commissioner General of Immi

permission.' It Is difficult to arrange this,
for it is almost impossible to obtain a
passport from Austria nowadays.

Sponge tho stain with cold or luke
warm water. Then remove the grease
that is left by placing the stained part
on a flat surface nnd covering It with

powder bcomcs gummy shako it oft
and apply more. Repeat tills until
most of the stain has disappeared.
Then apply more and allow It to re
main over night or longer If necessary.

SUE LEFT WORD FOR HIM
He Was Frightened Because He Thought Their Little Boy RV,1
Worse She Only, Wanted to Reproach Him for
LITTLH Johnny woke up with a bad
cold the 'other day nnd his mother
kept him in bed all morning. Ills
father was very much worried,, although
he was assured that it really wasn't
a fatal 'disease, even if It was his only
son who had It. The houso seemed
rather chilly before breakfast, and' he
thought- it would be n good plan to
mako a fire in the furnace to warm
things up a bit.
He went quietly down Into tho cellar
without telling anybody and looked
about for fuel. It seemed wrong to use,
perfectly good wood. Then he saw a
pile of magazines, old,' out-of-date
things, lying in a corner near the steps.
That was Just what ho wanted. In a
few minutes he had a roarlne blaze.
and he went upstairs well pleased with
himself. '
Still somewhat worried about young
Johnny, he left for the office. Later in
the day, when lie came back to the
office after lunch, an office boy greeted
him with an announcement:
"Your wife called up nnd wants you
to call her right away as soon as you
get back. She says it's Important."
"Important 1" With n sinking of
the heart he realized that that must
mean that Johnny was worse. He
rushed to the telephone with mixed feel
ings; "scared to death and afraid to
run." He wns relieved to find his wife's
voice perfectly calm and cool. In fact,
the coolness of it was decidedly marked.
"Would you mind telling me," she

I it'in snvlnir to sell as soon nR the man
came nroiind? I'd Ilka to know just
why?"
From the midst of relief, consterna
tion, surprise nnd indignation, her
husband could only sputter. "I dldn t
know," he managed to say. "I thought
Johnny was worse."
"Johnny's better," was the calm
reply. "J just wanted to know why
you took ull those mngazlncs when you
might have known I wanted to save
them to bo .sold."
NO, IT wasn't just an "incident.
