>/ A NEW COIFFURE Excitingly new is this h&irdress de- signed for Ann Morriss. From a left part, the hair is waved up and into a long roll at either side; the re- mainder is combed straight, to the nape* of the neck to break into brushed-out curls, held close to the neck with a .single deep wave. â-  Household Hints Saturate thoroughly small cubes of granulated' sugar with fresh or- ange juice and push one cube well down into the top of each tea bis- cuit. When baked they should be a shining golden brown on top and1 deliciously orange flavored. A comfortable living room 'has some.sort of table within reach of eevry chair, It’s mighty unhandy to cross a* room every time one needs an ash tray or wants to lay down a book. â€"oâ€" To keep lettuce and greens fresh over a long week-end, re- move waste leaves, and after thoroughly wetting the outside only of a paper bag1, place lettuce, cabbage or spinach inside and twist the top. When you open the bag you will find the leaves crisp and delicious. â€"0â€"- If jelly has not “set” success- fully, beat up with a fork and pile in a glass dish with custard or cream around; it will then "set” itself in a pyramid. Jam that is rather juicy, or a custard mixture, frequently scales into' the pastry when tarts are made with these fillings, and makes it sodden. If, however, the pastry .is, first brushed over wish beaten egg it will keep quite cripp and dry. When glass gets broken be pa ticuiariy careful about picking the pieces. A damp cloth will talk' them up, or on linoleum or woo a cloth well moistened with floo: polish. Use an old cloth that ce be immediately destroyed. Jelly that has molded tinder seal is not necessarily ' entire^; spoiled. Skim off the top a: taste to see if the balance of jelly is unharmed. If so, and it not to be used immediately, r parafin and .store in a cool di- place. pp e d -r n the y lid th To prevent fading when .drying colored garments ;• outside, hang them in the shadeWrong side out.

The Goose Woman by REX BEACH SYNOPSIS â€" Amos Ethridge is- found murdered in a country lane with a crude cross of twigs on his breast and a scented sheet of note paper in his pocket. He was the richest man in the state with power and influence enough to make him- self candidate for Governor. With his death came hints of an unsav- ory private life, of wronged women and betrayed husbands and fathers who had reason to wish him dead. There was also a powerful secret political organization opposed to him . . . Mary Holmes, called “the goose woman” by newspaper reporters, lives nearest the scene of the crime on a small chicken farm where she ekes out a poor living and tries to find in drink the forgetfulness of past glories when she was Maria di Nardi, world-re- nowned opera singer , . . Ger- ald Holmes, a talented young ar- tist is hated and loved by his moth- er who is embittered because his birth caused the loss of her voice and wrecked her operatic career. He has been ebfriended by the murdered Ethridge, and is engaged The New Monk Silhouette For Youth! By LOUISE LENNOX Here’s an exciting new sil- houette that is so outstandingly flattering to youth.

O Smith * Corona Typewriters of Canada Ltd., «7 Front St. 13., Toronto to another of Amos Ethridge’s pro- teges . . . Hazel Woods, lovely and .brilliant young actress, has been helped to success by Ethridge. She lives in a small cottage owned by Ethridge . . . Jacob Riggs,- eccentric old-time actor, now a doorman at the theater where Ha- zel Woods plays, has appointed himself her guardian and lives in a room over her garage. CHAPTER XIX “Iâ€"I only told what I saw,” Mrs. Holmes declared, uncertainly. ‘T swore to it and you know what it means when you swear to a thing. Whyâ€"they’d arrest me, for all 1 know.” “But there’s a . terrible mistake somewhere,” the girl earnestly as- serted. “I can’t explain the car with one headlight -â€" the ear that passed you after the shootingâ€"and yet Jerry declares he left your own house an hour before the murder and drove straight to town. He is telling the truth : 1 know lie is.” ‘‘They claim he laid in wait.” “But they couldn’t prove it with- out you! It’s your evidence that contradicts him. You didn’t actual- ly recognize him â€" you said so! And if it had been Jerry you’d have known him. Of course you would! You’d know your own boy any- whereâ€"”, “I â€" was to.o far away.” Hazel protested breathlessly:'. No, no! Think! Oh, God think of some- thing to show it wasn’t tie.! Some action, some gesture, some pecul- iarity! Maybe there were two head- lights on that last car and you were mistaken. It’s so easy to be mistak- en and just that one point might save him. Think! If it were me I’d â€"think of something..I’dâ€"But they have discredited me; there's noth- ing I can do. I’m utterly helpless.” She broke down now and, hiding _her face in her hands, she sobbed wretchedly; the tears came right through her fingers. There was a poignant quality to her grief. She was very young and very frail. Mrs. Holmes realized that this tragedy had broken her like a butterfly, A curse on men like Amos Ethridge! Yes, and on men like Vogel! A Chance To Think After a while the mother said, roughly: “Go away! Give me a chance to think. Mind you, I don’t believe it’s any use butâ€"” Again she broke out in gusty vexation. “Oh, why does 1 everything 1 do turn out wrong? It’s his fault as much as mine. It’s easy for you to tell me to lie, to perjure myselfâ€"” “I don’t. 1 merely say what I’dâ€" be willing â€" to do.” “All right! All right! Go along now. I’ll let you know if I can think of anything, but I’m sick. That’s;mÿ luck. Sick! That’s how things go with me. Iâ€"1 wish I were dead!” That afternoon Vogel called at the hotel in accordance with a re- quest from Mrs. Holmes, and after she had beat about the bush for a while she told him haltingly that she wished to make a new affidavit. There were certain points in tier first one that she realized, upon a lot of careful thought, needed ex- planation, modification. Vogel lis- tened until she had finished, then he said: “I’ve been expecting this. Save it for the trial,” “Butâ€"the trouble is Jerry’s being tried how, in the newspapers. The verdict will tie. in before the jury goes out.” “Justice Must Be Served” “Don’t you believe he’s guilty?’ The woman averted her eyes.5 “There are some people who could not commit a murder, and tie’s one. There’s nothing vicious about him. He liked Mr. Ethridge and he knew nothing whatever about the Woods affair.” “Nothing vicious, eh? Nothing vi- cious about his mother, either, 1 suppose?” Vogel grinned derisive- ly. “Tell that to the reporter you shot at.” KOMOL *n th6 great struggle for life, everything depends on the age you appear to be; biit don't be discouraged.

Street____________;...................... City________________________________ Mrs. Holmes feebly agreed until he broke in: “I understand you per- fectly,.; and your feelings do you credit. But I am a, servant of the people, and the law rhust be upheld. I sincerely regret that in doing your duty you placed your son in jeopardy, but it’s not the first time -such a thing has happened. Justice must be served and murder will out. Truth is more sacred even than a mother’s love. It’s my task to discover the truth.” “But you Haven’t. I was â€" mis- taken,” the woman protested, “I’m not going: to let an innocent per- son suffer for my mistake.” “Mistake!” ‘•‘Well, call it whatever you want to. I gave wrong testimony. I â€" lied!” “Indeed? It’s too bad you are so late confessing it. Now see here"â€" the speaker’s tone changed â€" “we will end this foolishness right now. I’m not going to let you make a monkey out of me, whatever your natural impulse may be. Y dare say you’ll testify that I deceived or co- erced you; put words into your mouth; induced you to sign some- thing you didn’t read. Wé’ll see! Are you going to play straight, do your duty as a citizen and stick to what you said, orâ€"?” “No. I can’t. I’m going to tell the truth.” Her Past History Vogel rose. “Thanks for letting me know. If you choose to discredit yourself in any such manner I’ll make a good job of it. You see, I’ve looked up your whole history, and I’ll make you tell it to the jury, with your own lips. It won’t help the defendant any, believe me.” “What do you mean?” Mrs. Holmes faintly demanded. “You understand plain English. You’ll hear a lot of it if you main- tain this attitude.” There was a pause. “You must have some affec- tion for this â€" this ‘son’- of yours. That’s nothing more than animal nature! But the more lies you tell, the more the jury' will believe in the story you told me and sw-ore to; the more firmly you will convince them that you are swearing falsely to save your illegitimate child.” “I gee. If 1 don’t do what you say you’ll tell all about â€" Jerry?” “And you! Exactly. I’d. like to spare you both, butâ€"” the speaker shrugged. “Better grit your teeth and go through with it. You. can’t save him, no matter what you do.” With these words, Vogel left. (CONTINUED NEXT ISSUE) Highways in Germany now have a total length of 50,000 miles.

Trade today ! mw The Secrets , Sf Good Looks REDUCING IN SPOTS It is important, in trying to re- duce, that first of all you give close attention to your posture and car- riage. Surplus - fat in various parts of the body is often caused by incor- rect posture. A double chin is also brought about by constantly hold- ing the head down. Layers of fat accumulate at the part just above the waist, because of wrong car- riage when walking and careless posture in repose. The base at the back of the neck is fatty as the re- sult of incorrect head posture. Hold your head erect, chin in, the shouulders back, and your chest high, with abdomen flat. Walk and sit to your full height. Not only will you gain in height but you will gradually flatten out some of those curves of fat you've accumulated. There is no -use indulging in vig- orous reducing exercises if your posture is going to offset these ben- efits. Here is a sit-down exercise to bring about a youthful neck and chin. Drop chin forward onto the chest. Then raise head upward and let it tall backward, chin in air. Turn head sharply to left, then to right and return to first position. Do this five times and repeat the movement several times through- out the day. My leaflet on “Reducing in Spots” gives complete details and suggestions.
