Involuntarily. He was entirely ca

for, ns Nancy believed, emotion was

In Nancy he would take the greatest

Through a Woman's Eyes
ny .JEAN
To Bob or
A well-known emplocrof Inrge num
bers of men and women hns announced
that the concerns which be controls will
consider no women applicants who bob
their hair. "We wnnt workers," Ae
says, "not circus clowns."
And the first thing I heard from a
ry capable bobbed-haired girl I know
was. "It's n pity be doesn't know thnt
il Is u hat's inside of a girl's head that
founts. '
No doubt Mr. Wcll-KnownEmploycr
thinks thnt the appearance of the out
side Is some indication of what Is' on
the inside of n girl's head.
True a joung woman who would
insist tiprtn going to work with the
latest fad from frivolous Paris applied
In her coiffure, evcu though It be 11 wig
to match her gown, could fairly be
judged as lacking something thnt should
be underneath the wig.
A girl who disports herself in 0 busi
ness office vkvith her hennn-ed head
adorned wini ornaments of hone and
colored stones, and piled high with
puffs and ilnglet.s thnt keep her con
ftantly on the qui vlve to maintain
their equilibrium, would justify advene
criticism of her good taste, common
tense of serious-mindedness, nil of
which have something to do with effl
liency. But bobbed half? Every one of the
girls I know who hod their hair cut
did it for comfort nnd no other reason.

rinse the article in clean gasoline again

will be surprised to find how flesh It

Repairing a Mirror
T Ike KUtor of Woman's rage:
Dear Madam In my cottage at tha

Will you kindly advise whnt can be

A DAIIA' IIBADKH.
Mercury can bo purchased at a drug
tore. 1 'lean the bare spots on the marror
very thoroughly, then sprend a piece of
tinfoil over them, on tho back, and let
drop of the motnlllc mercury fall on
It. Uub the tinfoil until It bocomes bright
and shiny then sprend a clean pleco
of paper over the ton and placo a bool
en It to weigh It down and press It
upon the mirror and leave It over night.
This Is not easy to do ns the edges
muit bo carefully rubbed down to be
mooth and even. Hut. even If you do
not make a perfect Job of It, you will
t least cover the "bald" spots.

Miss Henderson was looking at
Nancy with a strange expression In her
eyes. "ou will have to go with us,"
she said finnlly, nnd very dellbcrntcly.
"nut your brother"
"I've gone so far, I might as well
go all the way and take matters Into
my own hands,"
After Trlx's sobs had lessened and
she hnd fallen Into an exhausted sleep
from very weakness, Miss Henderson
beckoned N'nncy Into the ball. "I want
to talk to you for n few moments. Will
you come to my room?"
In surprise Niincy followed her
downstairs, There wns n dofinitencss
about .Miss Henderson's mnnncr that
vaguely troubled her: there was evi
dently something Important tlmt she
wanted to say, something thnt bore on
the. situntlon very definitely..
Safe In Miss Henderson's room with
the door closed, the older woman turned
to Nancy deliberately.
"No doubt you'll think mc mad. but
I have n susnlclnn Hint I'm rtuht In
what I have to say. Did you ever
stop to think thnt Unire's persecution
of you. his apparent hatred of jou.
might have another mennlng?"
"I don't understand."
"I'll make myself plainer. I believe
Bruce cares for you!
Nancy stnrtcd back., "Oh. Miss
Henderson, you don't know whnt you're
saying; why. such an Iden Is prepos
terous; It isn't to be considered."
"Nevertheless, I think I'm right,
nnd, Nnncy, if such n thing should he
true, It might be the means of bringing
Ilruce hack to bis old self. I have sus
pected this for n long time. I don't
know whnt gave me the idea, but I have
hoped and prayed that It might he so.
I'm nn old womnn, but sometimes old
eyes are keener thnn young ones. I
hnvc snen Bruce look at jou In the
strongest manner, even when he was
throwing some mocking sarcastic phrae
nt you. It was almost as though be re
scntcd the truth of his feelings nnd went
on deliberately hurting jou nnd mnkiug
you suffer. I'm almost certain thnt I'm
right."
Nancy's thoughts were suddenly in
n whirl. Miss Henderson's nmnzing re
marks together with the problem tlmt
had been in her own mind seemed some
how strangely significant. The scene
last night swept over her again, the
possossivenoss of him as he had held
her close, the vindictlvencss with which
he bad forced her into open warfare as
fnr as her relations with Dr. Hunt were
concerned. Of course. It couldn't be
true, it wns all impossible; but If It
were true, what n glorious revenge!

when J remnrked to one on the pity of
giving up her lenllv lovely wavy chest

Thli Is only possible when n properVy

The healthy Individual hns n high re

hncterln thnt came disease, while the
ailing person or one with chronic Indi
gestion has n correspondingly low re
sistance. A wise diet, combined with proper
exercise, go n long way townrd health
building', nnd with this idea in mind
rnly can wo do our very best to gnin n
foothold upon the ladder uf health.
From two nnd one-half to three
quarts of llould nre necessary every
twenty-four hours to keep the blod
stream of a desired consistency, as well
ns to help the body remove the wnsto

w'nste from worn-out tissues. Failure to
provide rufliclent water for this work
will produco promnturc old nge. con
stipation mid kindred ills, including un
over-rich nnd sluggish blood stream.
The growth nnd development of the
body depend upon the protein nnd
carboliydrntcs", vitnmines nnd fat, con
stituents of the foods we rat. So If we
are under thirty, unless thcro is serious
organic disturbances, wo niny ent inents),
fish, cgjs, chceso nnd the vegetable

After thirty-five, unless one i very

work, ent meat or ItR equivalent once a

cat meat three or four times ench week.
Utilize the vegetable proteins, eggs nnd
cheese In place of meat.
Often ono meets n housewife who has
the mistaken iden thnt if she uses t
variety of foods it be expensive. For
this reason she gets into n rut with a
menu of just bread, meat and iKitatoes.
This is surely wrong. Not only does
this style cost more nnnej. but it Is
also costlv from the dietetic stnndrmln-.

"No. I don't think he will; and I'm

Secret of the Pirates
U aip l,oUl bad plrftt
Who fall the stormy ms.
No oih"t IkiUI pirate
Arc hilf no bad ss we.
So sung the pirate crew of the Merrv
Mngpie as their ship tossed and tossed
In the tumbling wnter. They snug it
ndly and gloomilj, as though thej
didn't mean it.
And as tbej sang, the pirate who
had called Peggy and Billy aside whis
pered his secret in tlieir enrs
"I am not renllj a bold, bad pirate
nny more." he said. "I hnve been n
good pirate for many, many jears. li
is only inj whiskers nnd long hnir make
me look hnd. I have to pretpinl I nm n
hnd pirnte because if Captain Black
I've and nil these other bad pirntes knew
I hnd turned good, they would mnke me
walk the plank." Peggy nnd Billj
liiew by the look in his eje that be told
the truth. He put his linger on bin
lips, nnd went back among the other
pirates, joining them In their pirate
oug.
Still another pirate ''ailed Peggy nnd
Hillj nside, nnd to their surprise told
them the verj snme thing. And then
a third pirnte whispered the same
secret, nnd everj plrute repeated it, ex
cept Captain Black -Kje.
"I nm n good pirate." ench one snid.
"but I um nfrnid to tell Cnptnin Black -Kje
and mj bud mates."
Peggv nnd Hill v thought thnt wns
fine, 'llie.v thought, too. it wns a joke
on all the pirntes fnr each of them lo
be good while thinking all the others
bad
"We can mnnnge this finelj," whis
pered Blllv to Peggj . "Kvcry one is
good except Captnln Black-H?. We
can wait until he goes to sleep nnd then
enpture him
Then Cnptain Black -Kje himself
ended fbein into his cabin ' I have a
sen el to tell vou." he whispered "Thi
being shut up took the badness out of
me jcui's null yenrs. ago. I have been
afraid to tell my men, because thev
would tear nie to pieces if tliej knew I
wnsn't ns bad as they nre. I hnve to
wenr these whiskers and long hair to
hide my goodness from themjf'
Thnt mnde Peggy and Billy feel like
snickering, but tliej didn't do so. In
stead they called a meeting of all the
nirntes on the deck of the Merry
Magpie
"Hud pirates." nid Peggy, "we
have come to save you. But the only
way to save you Is to make you good
pirsteB. And I know of only one way
to mnke vou enod pirates. If you will
come to me one by one I will whisper
thnt secret in vour ear
So the pirates formed in line nnd
came one bj one to l'eggj, who whis
pered a secret in their ears. Whnt wns
that secret'.' All she snid to ench pirate
was, "Shave off voui whiskers nnd
out your hnlr, and come back here iu

and the pirntes hnd to go to work bring
