HT EEE (ALY 4 ] < bd TANIA, A TE LLLAAL IL 18 Son, a star--Octave Feuillets The Potmpadour Has Returned Horse-and-Buggy Hairdo Is All the Rage -- Hats Design ed to Accommodate It Pompadours are here We had heard tiny, almost imperceptible whispers and then suddenly we did awaken one morning to find that pompadours were here, Whelthos, they fre here to stay, is difficult to say. But since millinery is boing de- signed to accommodate tho now colfture, they are here to stay for awhile, at least. Thero are little pompadours that hardly stand up at all; both thoy and their wearers peep out, looking over the world in a very shy and embarrassed manner. Then thore are the frank pompadours that are waved and stand up four or five inches and their owners, while sell. -conscious, hold their heads high-- more, we believe because they are afraid their proud poompadours will "come tumbling down. SHOW HAIR IN_ FRONT Both large and small hats are made to emphasizg the pompadour coiffures. Many hayd dwshidentation undef the brim to keep the pompa- dour from becoming a bang. Most new hats have a long back line and this is necessitated by showing the hair in front. This lino is often achieved by the uso of a close-fit- ting cap of a knitted weave in wool that holds the brim firmly on the head, Introducing a New Coiffure Ann Rutherford's high-low coiffure " adapts itself to either daytime or evening wear, and she recommends this hair style for the sub-deb.

Crisp Curtains 'Cool-Looking Newest Ones Take Tip From Fashions in Lingerie Many homemakers realize that tho best way to make a bedroom look cool, dainty and restful duting the hot weather is to anchor clouds of colorful crisp curtains at the _ windows.

"SAL FCED TEA 4 Lost Kingdom . . by OREN ARNOLD CAST OF CHARACTERS ROBERT BARRY -- hero, ex- plorer. : ' MELISSA LANE -- heroine, Barry's partner. HONEY BEE GIRL--Indian; member of Barry's party, HADES JONES -- pioneer; member of Barry's party. LJ . Last week: Starting out to search for Bob after his long ab. sence, Honey Bee Girl grows in- creasingly bitter toward Melissa. CHAPTER XXIII . "We have about a hundred matches here, and six candles." Bob was inspecting his shoulder pack, now reclaimed. "They would serve us in event the flash- light failed." : Lissa smiled up at him. They were alone in the cavern again, but she was not afraid now. "I should have had the flash- light in my own pocket, of resumed. "But it's kind of bulky. And I never dream. ced of such an emergency as we faced." ' "Let's forget all that," she sug- gested. "Let's--plan things!" He caressed her, pausing to kiss her twice. "Say, partner, you're wonderful, aren't you?" "lI want you to think so, any- way, Dr. Barry!" - They walked very close to- gether, with her head touching his shoulder. "What shall we plan?" he quer- ied. "Home? Carcer? Happiness? . Where do you want to live, sweeti- heart?" "With you." "I know, but--where? New York? 'Arizona? Timbuctoo?" - She smiled up at him again. "With you. That's all I ask." The climbing was not easy. Bob remembered that they had to go up a total of 600 feet, and must walk perhaps three times that distance because of the turhs and curves in the great underground. room. The floor was very rough, too. : "We must be over half way up," he told her, after a while." "Want to rest a moment?" "No. But, Bob--I'm things again!" o "Yes? What?" "I just saw a flash of light, of reflected light, when your pocket lamp wasn't turned that way." L * . < seeing iy JOYOUS REUNION It was true. Two minutes later "they saw the pinpoint of direct light gleaming from above them, "HELLO!" shouted Bob. "WHO IS IT? "Bawb" . . Bawb? Are you all right? It is Honey Bee. Bawb?" The two hastened to join her. Her brilliant gasoline lantern il- luminated a really joyous reun- ion there. - There was much an angle talk. 'Lissa thought she had never seen- the Indian's face show such anima- tion. Suddenly she felt a' surge of pity for Honey Bee; the poor girl thought herself in love with Bob, 'Lissa suddenly remember- fir, ISSUE. 34--40 a ed. In that instant, oddly enough, 'Lissa's mind skipped back over th: 3000 miles to New York City, back a few years, to single out a statement made by a university professor whom she had greatly rsepected. "Life has only one real tragedy," the professor had said. "It is unrequited love." 'Lissa set herself to he cordial to Honey Bee, but the cordial- ity was not reciprocated. Appar- ently only Bob existed to the red girl: Bob didn't notice the slight. "Did you tell?" he was de- manding, "Did you tell the oth- ers?" : "No," .she shook her head. "They think you went thee other way, maybe back to town. Holli- man iss gone." "Gone where?" "He disappear. He do iot say where." "THEY'VE DISAPPEARED "And Hades Jones?" Bob was intent on his questioning. "He iss go crazy almost, look- ing for you." "I'll bet!" snapped Bob, grin. ning. "Good old Hades. Well look, Honey Bee, you're great, 'not to tell. I'm sure glad, because it didn't pan out anyway. I mean, the cave is nothing but a big hole, and if we hadn't gotten lost in it we'd have been out that samo afternoon. And if we--" * »* * HATRED IN HER FACE Bob had to think fast. He hadn't expected to meet Honey Bee or anyoné up there, and he hadn't fully prepared -the tale he must tell. -- ] "--you see, I ought to be kicked, but the fact is, Honey Bee, I lost my pack, I--I had some candy, and a sandwich or two, in my pockets, and had the canteen, or we'd have been out of luck sure enough. We just found the pack a while ago. And we're starved, too, There wasn't much food in it, you remember." "Why did you not come back out, Bawb?" Honey Bee was con- cerned. "Oh! Oh, I forgot to say--we-- I dropped the lantern and we 'were lost. Dropped it after I had put -the pack down somewhere, It fell over a rock, the lantern, I mean, and exploded. Then we ~couldn't find the pack again, or our way back out. All my match- es, even my pocket flash, were in the pack." 'Lissa spoke up then. "He means I dropped the lantern, Honey Bee. I did, I am sorry, for everybody's sake. It was inexcus- able." Honey Bee made no reply, but her face underwent such a pro- nounced change that even Bob was concerned by it.. The red girl literally reflected hatred; She glared at Mary Melissa in a man- ner almost fiendish, It was ob- vious that she silently - accused the white girl of negligence, of endangering Bob's life. 'Lissa couldn't fail to see her feelings, but she could think of nothing to do about it. ! "Why, Honey Bee, of course it was an accident!" Bob stared in- tently at her. "Miss. Lane's life was in as great danger as mine." 'Lissa smiled a little, "You missed the point, Bob, Please let's go on out." + THE EDGE OF THE CLIFF Without further words they, moved upward and presently came within the whife light of day. First it also was a pinpoint, then grew to become the cave mouth, where Bob: had: labored to remove the rocks days ago. It was still early morning and the sun was pouring: into the: cliffs castle area with: great brilliance. "I "was never so glad to sce anything in all'my life!" exclaim- ed 'Lissa. She ran to the edge and peered down. "And the camp ~=it looks heavenly, Bob, Oh!" Thére. were sundry other ex- clamations and sighs of relief. The two were, indeed, almost ec- statfe with joy. Bob took both "her hands and danced in a circle with her, kid fashion, Then he swung her into a close embrace and kissed her, long and thor- oughly. Neither of them really looked at Honey Bee, so intent on each other were they, or they surely would have observed the wild jealousy that suffused the Indian girl. The squaw was literally mad, insane. : "Let's hurry "down," 'Lissa urged, happily. ""Come on, dear," Bob climbed to the foot of the first ladder, as customary, and waited for her there, his hand held up to assist her. It was, how- ever, quite a long climb down, 20 feet nearly to that first narrow ledge: Caution was essential. 'Lissa remembered the total height there was 600 feet, and it looked 6000. Above on the rim, Honey Bee stood glaring. She was still glar- ing when 'Lissa stepped onto the ladder. Suddenly ; the Indian girl saw her chance! All the pent-up fury in her came to life.

CHAMBERS Peaches and Cream ---Then More "Peaches Dessert planning these days should not be a difficult problem with all the delicious fruit on the market, from which to choose. Peaches are always one of the most * popular, Perhaps that is why something which rates high is: called "a peach." Served with cream and sugar, peaches that are perfectly ripe and richly flavored are a dish fit for a king. Fresh peach pie and peach shortcake are treats ex. pected by: the family each year, now that the peach season is in full swing, Serve these often. The rest of the dinner should be rather light since either the pie or the shorteake is rather a hearty dessert. For instance you might start the meal with. tomato |. juice mixed with a little lemon juice. Then serve broiled ow fried fish, with lima beans and a cu- cumber salad. The market will have to guide you regarding the fish, but we hope it will be brook trout. In preparing, sprinkle the fish lightly with lemon juice, roll in a mixture of flour and corn- meal (equal parts) and broil or fry crisp, first on one side then on the other. After the fish is on the platter sprinkle with salt and pepper. PEACH PIE 10° perfectly ripe peaches, 3 eggs, 1 cup sugar, ¥% cup flour, 3 tablespoons butter, 2 table- spoons butter, 3 teaspoon salt, 3 tablespoons water. Scald the peaches, slip off the skins and cut in halves. Sift salt and flour and work in lard or butter or equal quantities of each. It is best to work in with pastry blender. Add water (very cold) a.few drops at a time, cut- ting it in with a broad bladed knife. Shape' into a round flat cake, roll on a lightly floured borad, roll into a sheet. Fit into a nine inch pan, which has been greased. Pink the edges and fill with the peach halves cut side up. Beat eggs until light, add sugar and a sprinkle of nutmeg; pour over peaches and bake in a hot oven for 12 minutes. Reduce heat and cook until peaches are tender, about 30 minutes longer. PEACH SHORTCAKE 2 cups pastry flour- 3 teaspoons baking powder ¥% teaspoon salt 5 tablespoons butter or lard ¥% cup milk 10 peaches 1% teaspoon nutmeg + Sift flour once; measure and again into mixing bowl. Cut in shortening with a pastry blender; add milk, cutting in with broad - handled knife. Turn on to a slightly floured boatd snd knead ° very lightly 'with the tips of the fingefs, which must be well flour- ed. Divide dough into halves and roll gently into two rounds not more than 1% inch thick.

THOSE FAMOUS IN HISTORY This being the day of the woman, librarians In the city of Toronto thought it would be well to tocus some aftention on the exploits of women famous in history, those fa- 'mous in today's lie being pretty well known through the medium of the press, Accordingly, they dug into statls- tics, reference books, encycloped- las and private opinion and emerg- ed with the following: . Tho three things for which wo- men became famous in history were, In order of precedence, beau- ty, power and goodness, They have no explanation, they say, why the goodness should be last, but there itis. - : BEAUTY, POWER, GOODNESS Citing statistics, they explain the woman has been relatively slow in emerging from obscurity, Of the 26 billion people who have seen the light of day since the beginning ot the world, only 5,000 'have been im- portant enough to be celebrated In histories, encyclopedias, and "Who's Who". Of these 5,000, only 200 were women. Biographies and histories round into a well greased round 9-inch dish and brush with soft- ened butter.
