And if you have had Rheuma tism for any length of time, the chances are that you have kept the liniment bottle pretty busy but you have realized by now that gallons of liniments and athcr locally applied remedies will never rid yon of this body wrecking, pain-racking disease, rhe best that you can expect From such treatment is some lit tle temporary relief from the sharp, shooting pains. But you want more than mere ■elief.

If Ger ald does not want to dine with us, he needn't. I, for one. don't want him. As for Milton —I don't care to have him stay either. Kindly do not propose that he does it." Her mother stood motionless for a full half-minute, her face stern. Then, without a word, she started towards the door. "Mother!" Dora spoke tremu lously. "If I was cross, lam sorry. I guess I see things a bit crooked because of my scare about Cynthia." "Perhaps you do," her mother admitted, unbending slightly from her dignity. "I suppose I should not have made any suggestion about Milton. Parents nowadays have lit tle to say in such matters." With which martyr-like observa tion she went from the room, clos ing the door behind her. "There, I have hurt her feelings!" , Dora burst forth. "But she does try i me sometimes. Oh, dear Cyn, don't you ever get tired of it all?" Dropping into a chair Dora buried , her face in her hands. Cynthia, surprised and distressed, i stroked the bowed head. "There, dear," she soothed. "I I don't know what the matter is, buti it's too bad that you should be so I upset." Dora Is Inattentive "Nothing's the matter!" Dora de clared, suddenly springing to her feet and laughing away her tears. "I guess I'm just cross—that's all, and here you are suffering like an angel of patience and I am not doing a thing for you. Take oft your sleeve and let me look at that hurt place, please." Then, as she saw the bruised shoulder: "Oh, it's all red and purple, honey! You poor dear! I will bathe it with witch" hazel. That will help it" When she had suited the action to the word and had laid a cooling compress on the bruise, she kissed her cousin tenderly. "You were the one that had the accident, and I was the one that got the nerves," she said penitently. "I don't know what ailed me for a while." "You were startled by the acci dent, and over-tired by an afternoon of shopping, dear," Cynthia said. "Now go and dress for dinner, and I will try to get a little nap. I will promise to lie still and rest." But, left alone in the darkened room. Cynthia could not sleep. In stead. she lay thinking of the look on Dora's face when Gerald Stewart had brought her, Cynthia, up the steps and into the house. She re called also the look In Stewart's eyes as he gazed at Dora as she sat in the car. What did it all mean? Was Dora glowing fond of Gerald, or—the idea was not a pleasant one—was she dis tressed because of Milton's attentions to her cousin? Cynthia moved impatiently, but a sharp twinge in her shoulder re minded her that she had promised to lie still and rest. (To be continued) Couple Married 64 \ Years Celebrate Collingswood, N.

Advice to the Lovelorn By BEATRICE FAIRFAX A CASE FOR YOUR OWN AID! Dear Miss Fairfax: What would you do if you were I? I am well educated, pretty, and have had unusual opportunities for meeting men. Yet I have never made a hit. I think I am just naturally stupid. I was not a success socially, and now that we have lost our money and I am a stenographer at sls per, I do not feel that I am a success in business either —it is only that I am working for an old friend of the family's or I would not be able to ' hold down the job." I am one of those foolish women that have dabbled in many things, but have never stuck to any one thing long enough to make a success of it. Though I look much younger, I am thirty-one. "OLD MAID." Your estimate of yourself is not a very enthusiastic one, is It? Can't you find something in your self to admire and cultivate? With a good education and good looks and enough critical faculty to write about yourself as you have, surely you ought to be able to treat your own case as well as to diagnose it. Because you have spent most of your life "dabbling" need not pre vent you from now settling down and mastering one thing. Why not stop thinking about yourself and your shortcomings and give your entire attention to your present po sition and its opportunities? Per haps it hasn't any! Well, then, in a world as teeming with chances for women as is our present little old globe, I suggest that you look around for the place into which you will fit! Take stock of yourself. Perhaps you are a good executive, perhaps you are a sympathetic stenographer who brings out the ability of the person who is dealing with you. Perhaps you would be a good saleswoman. Maybe you have some artistic ability—or know a lot about cooking. Find out what your marketable ability is—then take it to the market and insist on getting the best possible price for it. Your letter suggests humor and is dis tinctly indicative of character and ability. I fancy you are really a clever, worth-while woman, and that you can make a great deal of yourself if you simply choose. Go ahead, my friend—choose! DOMINEERING DEAR MISS FAIRFAX: I am engaged to a girl a year my junior, whom I love dearly, but she has a habit of scolding over the merest trifle, and always wishes her advice to be taken in all things. When I can, I do, but of course her advice isn't suitable for all purposes, as I try to point out to her, but of no avail. She may get angry and not talk to me nil week, (I call three times a week) or until I give in to her point. If we have no particular engage ment on hand for Sunday, I call about 4 p. m., no later, but she gets angry and won't go anywhere, say ing the day is gone for any amuse ment. Now, Miss Fairfax, can't you tell me what to do to get her out of that domineering habit? A. B. C. The domineering woman is likely to be a vexenisli. srewish wife and unless the man who loves her teach es her to conquer her habits, it is likely to net her and him as well a great deal of misery. I think what is required of you is firmness and com mon sense plus determination. Per haps the uncertainty as to what time you are comig gets on the girl's nerves. Have enough respect for her to make your appointments and to keep them. Have enough re spect for yourself to demand that she listen to your viewpoint, meet it half way, and stop nagging at you when your ideas differ from hers. Take a firm stand. If she becomes petty and ugly about nothing, tell her that you will leave her unless she acts differently. Tell her that and stick to it! Lift Out Your Corns ICE-MINT THE SEW DISCOVERY ENDS ALL Foot Troubles This new discovery, made from a Japanese product, is certainly a won der the way it draws out inflamma tion from a pair of swollen, burning, aching feet.
