TO RID LAWNS OF DANDELIONS At this season of the year there arc few lawn in the State not infested with dandelions. The wepd Is very perni cious, due to the flying seed habit, and the heavy, fleshy root system, any part of which may pro'duce a new plant. The best method of combating dande lions in the lawn is to cut out the plants with a knife and apply salt to the newly cut surface. The operation may have to be repeated several times during the season, since any roots left in the ground sends up new plants. Eventually the root system will be starved out if the plants are cut per sistently, and the dandelions will dis appear.

WOMEN'S INTERESTS THE STRUGGLES OF A WIFE By Virginia Terhune Van de Water CHAPTER XLI (Copyright, 1916, Star Co.) At the beginning of the fourth week of the Webbs' stay at The Heights Grace spoke to her mother more freely with regard to Mr. Dayton than she hail yet done. •■■ml?*? ' ook ed at her Inquiringly. \vhat s the matter?" she asked. "Oh, nothing unusual," the girl replied. "Only, mother," with a sudden outburst of confidence, "I wish I had been born rich, or hand some—or both!" laughed as she uttered the words, yet the mother's keen eyes | « a w that they were prompted by a feeling that was not as trivial as they would seem to indicate. "I am satisfied with you Just as you are, dear," she smiled affection ately. gone wrong?" (< t Grace Is Jealous (( "Nothing much," Grace replied, "At least to you it might not seem much, and It certainly' is nothing new, but I do wish I were hand some, or at least could havo clothes like-—some other girls." No, -Grace was not pretty, but surely she could not look In the glass without seeing that she was attractive. This thought made Myra say now: "Dear, you are not beautiful, but your face is better than pretty." Grace interrupted her with an abrupt laugh. "Oh, mother, dear; please don't try to solace me by that bromidian speech!" she protested. "From my babyhood I've been told of the many advantages a nice looking girl has over a handsome <-ne; that I have a 'bright face' or a piquant face' or an 'intelligent face,' and I know that each of these supposed compli ments has been handed to me as a kind of consolation prize. ' But I tell you that they are a very inadequate compensation to the girl who is not pretty, unless she has the money to dress stun ringly and I haven't. But never mind " The Change Does Her Good Springing up and crossing the room she dropped a light kiss on her mother's forehead. "I am your daughter, and that's much more good luck than I deserve." she said. "I was horrid and self-absorbed to tf.lk as I did Just now when you have been doing so much to try to make me happy and well." Myra Webb shook her head. "All that I have been doing for you, as you put It, Is that I have given my self the pleasure of bringing you to ADVICE TO THE LOVELORN By Beatrice Fairfax TALK IT OVER WITH HER Dear . Miss Fairfax: I am in love with a girl three years my Junior and I believe my love is returned. When I ask this girl to go out she always asks to have another man with me to accompany her friend. Now as none of my men friends cares for this sec ond girl it is hard for me. ANXIOUS. Your girl friend seems to have an exaggerated sense of loyalty to an other girl. I suppose she has a gen erous nature and likes to share her pleasures with a less popular girl. But she is not quite fair to you in demand ing that you always furnish an escort for her companion. I think you had better tell her frankly that it Just hap pens that most of the boys you know are independent chaps who insist on choosing their own companions and that they are not willing to have you arrange 'parties of four all the time. Ask her to show you some of the gen erous loyalty she shows her girl friend. An honest little talk will probably straighten things out. GENERAL JOFFIIE IN LONDON London. Jnue 9.

"Well, then, I will include father [ in my statement," Grace amended. | "But for you two I should have | spent the greater part of this past j month In the hot city, and you [ know it. It has meant much to "me to be out here in God's country, where I could gain the health and strength I need carrv me through the work of the Fail and winter." "It has meant more to me to have you get well than it can have meant ! to you," Myra objected. "So now," j with a desire to change the subject, "why did you sigh so desperately a while ago? Why," teasingly, "has intimated that you were neither beautiful nor rich? I acknowledge that you are neither, but who has reminded you of these lamentable deficiencies?" "Oh, I suppose I should not mind," Grace admitted. She was evidently in a more confidential mood than wes usual with her, for she con tinued, "I had been playing tennis, mid Mr. Dayton and I had won the set. I was feeling quite elated and proud of myself, for he was con gratulating me on my good game, and then as we came up the front steps we met Sylvia Ainslie." She stopped, blushing. Sylvia Again "Well?" Myra queried, "What of that?" "Well, she looked as if she had stepped out of a picture, and of course Mr. Dayton hurried forward to speak to her, and to say admir ing things to her, I suppose. Can you wonder men rave about her? "There was I, red, hot and dusty, my hair straggling about my face, my dress at best only a duck skirt and muslin shirtwaist rumpled and messy, my tennis shoes looking sprawling and soiled and there was Sylvia dressed in the daintiest of embroidered linen frocks, her hair all fluffy and curly about her face, her eyes darker and bigger than ever, her dainty little white shoes and stockings immaculate!— I tell you I looked like a blowzy Bella beside her and somehow it doesn't seem fair!" Her voice broke, and, with a movement as if to protect her. the mother drew the girl Into her arms.
