"Wo must save material," say the designers, so hem-lines are 17 or inches above the ground -- about iwo inches shorter than a year ago. (2) Slick-titting jackets for suits with a well-defined waistline, big pockets -- four is the ordinary allowance on a coat. Jackets come about four inches below {he hip- bone. (3) Wraparound coats are very loose with a full back, are some: times belted, or closefitting to the waist and flare outwards at the hem, (4) Fur being on the "luxury" ~ dist , its use as trimming is strictly rationed. Tho majority of wrap around 'coats are plain and collar-_ lees; some have a shallow fur col: lar, and a narrow band of fur out lining the pockets.

Health First "Aid to Charm Protective Foods Are Neces- sary to Good Health Charm and buoyant health are so intimately related that seldom does one exist without the other, Probably no attribute is more greatly desired by women than charm, that elusive quality defin- ed as "the power of alluring or delighting; fascination, and what- ever gives this power." If a woman has this, she docs not need to follow the whims of fashions of a scason. She really has something that will stay wit her as long as she lives. .

Lost Kingdom cra by OREN ARNOLD CHAPTER XXIV Mary Melissa was on the fourth rung down when Honey Bee dart- ed forward. The slim ladder tee- tered outward! Lissa screamed in. terror. Below, Bob had a very narrow footing. 1t was not enough from which to exert a counter-balance on the ladder; to try it would send both people crashing down. He leaped instantly to a rocky knob a short way up, dug one toe and both hands into cracks there, and with his free foot reached out and steadied the lad- der, swung it back to the cliff. It was a miraculous move, a mat- ter of seconds at tremendous risk. "Slide down, quick!" he shrill- ed. "To the ledge." ' From above Honey Bee had seen only that her first attempt was a failure, that the ladder hadn't fallen. She stepped again to the rim, leaned to take the ladder in her hands and literally throw it and the white girl down to destruc- tion. She was crouched for the determined thrust. when-- BANG!--a shot roared nearby. The ladder went over this time --and with it went Honey Bee herself! . . * FROZEN IN HORROR Mary Melissa had slid down as~ ordered, clung now with Bob on the rock shelf no bigger than a 's table top.

He had weathered enough crises to last most men a life- time. He needed white men's food and rest. He had a right to be jittery there on that cagle's eyrie , of a ledge, clinging fiercely to the girl he loved. , "Fust time I ever had "to shoot a Indian squaw," remarked Hades Jones from the rim, conversation- ally, "but by dads she had it com. in' to her! She'd a murdered you, Miss M'lissy, ef I hadn't shot her." | - "Yes! Yes, Hades." Bob looked his 'gratitude. "I'll never forget it. You saved her life, You were there!

We'll have to go right in today. I--we're going to be married. 'Lissa and I, Hades." Lissa was much calmer now. She smiled up at the old man. - She: would have spoken, but-- "I know all about that, young feller! You been sweethearts ever since the day I seen you both in Blanco Canyon.

Lissa beamed up at him. His grizzled old head protruded over the rim in comical fashion. He was lying prone to talk to them. "Will you marry us? You shall! He's got to, Bob! 1 won't marry you unless he does." Bob grinned. "You hear that, Hades. It's war if you don't." The Reverend Zachary "Hades" Jones was shining happily, and apparently none of the three gave thought to the amazing cii- cumstance, the position they held, clinging there on the sheer face of a great mountain liketso many birds.

About Peaches Last year we went into the different canning = méthods for fruit rather thoroughly, hence I have been saying little about jt this year, However since I have received so many letters com- plaining about fruit not '"keep- ing," 1 feel duty bound to write a Jew remarks on the subject, for conserving fruit is of vital importance this year. I have no desire to sound boast- ful, but all fruit which I have canned is in perfect condition and once again I will repéat my favourite method. It is true we have had a very wet season; your personal selection of fruit must be done with -the utmost care, never buying after heavy rains; all this is most important. How: - ever, there are other matters very important, Be sure that your jars are all well scrubbed with a soft brush and soap and water,-- every corner and crevice, rinsed thoroughly and if possible dried in the sun. Then just before plac- ing your fruit in the jar, rinse with boiling water (be sure you - know the trick how to protect your jar). These first steps are the most important to obviate all danger of spoiled fruit, Those of ~you who have 'filed an. article - from this column last year "Hints on Canning" refer to it; for those who have not these helps I might say I consider the next most im- portant thing is to be sure the cloth you are using (for wiping © your jars top and elsewhere) cloth is sterile. Having tried kettle boiling and the different "pack methods" I much prefer this type, it is sim- ple, sterilizes and cooks the fruit perfectly but not to a breaking- up stage: ; > } CANNED PEACHES Choose ripe (not over-ripe) fruit without blemishes, Dip in boiling water, remove peels, dip in cold water and place in jars in this manner. First a layer of sugar, then peaches in propor- tion:--% measure sugar to one of peaches for medium syrup; for heavy syrup % sugar to on of peaches. 1 tablespoon of cor syrup added greatly enhances th flavor, Fill' jar: with (old water to, point: of overflowing. Now place on. glass tops, then' the screw tops; place in steamer or other arrangement for oven, Now -lo¢sen tops 2 turns to the left; steam 20 minutes, Remove from stéamer, screw tops tightly, test for leakage. The next day steam for'12 minutes, follow steps fof stdaming as for the previous one, and be sure and test for leakage before storing in a'cool and dry place, Never use a jar or glass tops that is cracked or chipped or' damaged any way. : } PEACH CONSERVE 16 large ripe peaches 1 lemon, 1 orange and 1 grape- fruit 1 teaspoon almond flavoring % 'teaspoon nutmeg 1 up blanched shredded al- monds Sugar equal peaches, Peel and slice peaches, .add orange, grapefruit and lemon.
