With n long thumb, if the first phalanx of his finger of Apollo (ring finger) be longest, he can excel as a real artist; if the second pha lanx is longest, his brilliancy will find a vent in business; with tho third pha lanx longest, he Is likely to be merely n "show-off," flaBhy and loud, and boastful of what ho can do, yet never (To be continued) Embarrassing Moments At the Polls' I had gone to the polls to register for election.

Tho United States Department of Agriculture gives somo suggestions about the material and placing of sinks Ono of the biggest savers of time, strength and labor in the kitchen is the sink. Yet many women arc strug gling along with none nt all or,, at best, a poor and badly placed one. The following suggestions in regard to sinks aro given by household specialists of tho United States Department of Agri culture : The size of the family and of thn kitchen must determine the slzo of the sink, hut n .short sink with nmplc tablo aiid tfhclf room near it may be more convenient than a long sink. Two smaller sinks, 0110 for the table dishes near the dining room and the other for general uso in tho kitchen, aro very convenient. Tho material should bo tho best avail able, nonabsorbent of greaso as well as of moisturo, and thero should bo no cracks or square corners to Increase the work of keeping it clean. A wooden sink,-even when it receives an annual coat of paint, will absorb moisture and greaso, which attract Insects, and is Qkcly to bo swarming with bacteria and to "sour" and have an unpleasant odor. Even drainboards of wood arc not rec ommended unless they have a waterproof finish of varnish, olt or paint. If n wooden sink is necessary, it is better to havo it metal lined, provided the sheets of metal, which arc usually tin, zinc, galvanized iron, copper or lead, are soldered where theyv arc joined and nil parts Of the sink, including the tops of tho sides, arc covered with the metal, so that there is no chance 'for the wood to absorb moisture. Another plan is to huve a cement sink built into a wooden frame and lined with sheet cop per or tin. Iron sinks of good quality are superior to wooden ones, sinco they do not nb sorb greaso or moisture nnd arc durable They aro easily kept clean if smooth (and they will soon wear smooth), but they have tho dlsadvantago of neither showing dirt nor proclaiming their THE UNWELCOME WIFE By HAZEL DEYO BATCIIELOIt Cosvrioht. 13t0. bv PubHo Ledoer Co. Anthony Harriman tiiorrtes Char- lotte Graves and brings her to tho cltj. tohere she tomenow aoes not jh ii" the life of tho younger set. One day Tonv by chance introduces her to NioK Fowler, a man whom he tells her to avoid. Charlotte meets Nick shortly afterward, and forgets what Tony has said in her delight of at last meeting some one who is Kind to her. Nick looks upon her as a lovely child and tal.es her to the matinos much as h would have taken a little girl. The Homecoming AFTEttWAKD Charlotto had an Ice " cream soda, and it wasn't until Nick hailed a taxlcab to take her homo that sho realized what she had done. Tony had told her not to have anything to do with this man and 6he had dollber ntpiv nncnt the afternoon with him. What matter that she, had enjoyed every mlnuto of it. that sho would look back upon It as one of tho bright spots of her life? She had dono wrong, and sho was frightened. Looking out through tho window Into the fnst falling dUBk did not help her any, and Anally Nick rallied her about her silence. "I didn't realize how late It was,'-' Bho murmured. "You won't be scolded?" Nick said with real concern. "Why, child, I wouldn't have that happen for tho world." "Of course not," Charlotto said quickly. "Lot me como In and explain. If you think there will be any misunderstand ing." Sho Bhook her head. "Oh, no. please." She said this so quickly and with suoh nvident fear that he mleht do what he suggested that Nick smllrd to himself rathor grimly, bo tncy nna open niing the mind of this fairy child with stories about him. and she was afraid. "Poor llttlo thing-1" he thought to himself. "I don't Imagine she has an oasy time pleasing Lady Harriman." There was silenco In the taxi, for tho glad Bpontanolty of the afternoon was gone, and a shadow had fallen be tween them. Whon they finally drew up before the Harriman house It was quite dark and Charlotte know that she would have to account for her absence. Never boforo had sho been out after dark alone, and the enormity of what sho had dono now swept over her with its full force. "Sure you don't want me to come In and oxplaln matters?" ho asked as he went up the steps with her. She shook her head and smiled up at him as sh held out her hand. Nick took tho small fingers In his and stood uncertainly looking down at her. Thon ho said very gently "If you don't rolnd very much I think I wllL I really think I should. You are such a child and they have wor ried about you. Everything will bo all right, I promise you." hey rang the bell and almost In- ntantl :iv -ncn swung tne aoor open, He looked anxious and a smile of relief brightened his face When he saw Char lotte. Tony came running down the stairs and stopped when ho saw Nick. His faoe, which had been worried, froze into nn expression of stony displeasure, but It was only for a moment, for Nick jpoke Instantly In his easy, drawing tone: "I mot your wlfo out walking and ln velglod her Into a matinee," he ex plained urbanely. i see, saia 'lony. oveniy. -;omo up- stairs, won't you. Nick? My mother Is thero." Ho did not speak to Charlotte, nor soem to notice her at all, Upstairs in the beautiful living room Mrs. Harriman received .Nick Bowler with apparent groclousness. "Naturally wo wero very much wor ried about Charlotte." she said when Nick had oxplalnod. "It was vory good of you to take so much trouble for her, Mr. Fowler, and to bring her safely home."

Unless the front is pro tected by a strip of wood, the dresses and aprons of tlie worker are likely to become stained with Iron rust. Enameled -Iron sinks are smooth, last well with careful use, and mny bo easily kept clean, but they aro more expensive than iron. Porcelain sinks arc similar to the enameled ones, but their prico is almost prohibitive. Perhaps tho Ideal plan, if cost is not to be considered, would be to have an enameled or porce lain sink for the tableware In the kitchen or the pnhtry near tho dining room and an iron or soapstoua sink for tho hrav ier kitchen ware. The plumbing should bo easy of ac cess, and therefore it is better that there should bo no closet under tho sink. Hooks or shelves under tho sink or near it will accommodato everything usually kept in tho dark, often musty, "sink closet" of older kitchens. A "sink closet" can bo kept sweet and clean, but it means extra work to do it. If possible, thero should. b,e a wide bucii ur uruiu uuuru ou cacn Blue oi the sink on tho level with the rim of tho latter, one to receive soiled dishes nnd the other clean ones. Some house keepers havo these covered with zinc. As in all other places where it is used, tho metal must be neatly fitted and closely fastened down so un not to leave any chauco for loose, rough edges, or to provide breeding plnccs for insects or a lodging place for grease and dirt. If thero is no place for permanent drain . A right-handed person usually holds tho dish in the left hand while wnshing or wiping it, nnd the dishcloth, dish mop, or towel in the right hand. It is convenient, therefore, to have tho dishes move from right to left nn they pubs' from uisupnn to rinsing pau, and from rinsing pun to drainer nnd tray. This should be kept in mind, and nro- vision made for soiled dishes nt the right ana lor a drain ooaru at the lcit of tho sink. gracious to him In her own homo.

Sho had shown hersolf to bo the common daughter of common parents and she must bo treated m accordance.
