There are 'no two ways about it--fid. gety hands, restless feet and the roving eye that bespeaks a lack of inner poise cause charm to fly out of the window and greatly detract from physical beauty, however flawless it is. The smart woman knows that she never is at her best when she is very tired. She knows that many a case of jitters is due simply to lack of sleep. She knows, too, that lack of exercise often causes fluttery ges- tures, that 'one of the best ways to regain her poise when she is upset is to take a long, brisk walk. HOW TO RELAX ' Among other things that your woman of poise and beauty has learned is how to relax at odd moments during the day; to think about something pleasant while waiting for the long distance op- erator to get a number or a sales- woman to bring back sales check and the right change.

CHAPTER FIVE Mr. witd Mrs," Thomas were at break iast tho wext--mornhig-when--- 'Mary walked in and placed a com: "pact hearing the letters A A on tho table. She told them briefly of her quarrel with Ted, of Anastasia's letter. Ca, "So I looked back cf the seat and there it was. 1 won't ever go back to him -- never!" "Whatever you do will be all right with us," said her mother, "You weuldn"t want ms to go . back to him, would you, Mother?" "I've been finding rouge on your father's hendkerchiefs for years, but I'd rather he brought 'em home than throw them away --- they cost twenty cenls apiece" Mr. Thomas tried to look his guiltiest. "1 can explain, Chie(--" . "1 know," she smiled. "Some woman weeps. over her insurance policy and your father lends her his handkerchief -- or something equally meaningless." _-"But a compact _that. belongs to someone your husband was In love with before he married you!" "Ted didn't tell you something he should have, Mary -- that's all." The Incriminating Compact "I'm not €o sure he should have told you," sald her father. Mary was genuinely surprised. "Oh, you don't mean that!" "Sometimes," said the mother "not telling something is best thing 1qng as there's nothing important being concealed. Perhaps Ted mero- ly gave Anastasia a lift and, she left her compact in the car.'-- "Mother! Do you suppose that's all it was?" cried Mary, her face clearing. "I guess I have been act- ing silly. I'll . . to the Hellman Agency right away and confess: to Ted how foolish I've been ..."" i Ted Foster was in Mr. Hellman's office explaining excitedly to him: "Last night somo bird comes in and files the deed and transfer. The Commonwealth Metal Co, now owns that factory!" Mr. Hellman summoned Miss Miller, his secretary. "Take a tele- gram: Coronet Motor' Co. Detroit, Rush thirty standard sedans and ten standard coipes, assorted col ors, Imperative you start shipping today fastest delivery."" She went out to her desk to type it. Miss Miller re-entered. "Mr. Fos- tor, there's a lady waiting for' you in the show room." g He found Anastasia Atherton sit. . ting in tho front seat of a sedan. "What do you. want, Stacia?" "I had to come and see you, Ted. 1 tried to talk to you outside at the concert and you were actually rude to me!" "I'm awfully busy just now, Sta. cla. I've just put over the biggest deal df my life!" "Ted!" she cried impulsively, reached an arm through the car window, put it about his neck and drew his head close. "That's sim. ply wormderful!" Ted did not see a woman slart to enter the show room and then, choking hack a cry, suddenly re- treat: He was embarrassed enough as it was, and drew back from her embrace, 'Take it easy, Stacia! Did you I" want to seo me for any reason?" "I came by: for my oompact, I I'll hurry down Just then a boy entered and handed him a compact, Anastasia sald it was hers. Ted asked the boy where he got it. "1 Didn't Kiss Heri "A lady gave me a nickelyo give it to you." ~ "I don't get this' at all, Stacia, but it sure proves your compact wasn't in my car." "But how could that boy get it? Teddy, I'm positive 1 left it in the car." "That's impossible. I'm the only person who uses it except , .." He popping out. "Holy mackrel!" he exclaimed, and. hurried down the street, Anastasiasleaned. out of the living room of his home noisily. "Hello, Mary! I brought you a pre- sent." She did not even glance at him. "Can't stay long. I've got to get back to work." "Nico work, too!" she exploded in anger. "Kissing Anastasia!" Aghast, he cried: "I'didn't kiss Anastasia." _ Mary merely sniffed. He picked up the perfume. "This is that per- fume you like." "I don't want it." "Then I'll take it back--" "Oh, so now you'll give it to An- astasia! All right then! Go and give it to Anastasia!" Her eyes blazed, her volce was hoarse with rage. Ted said in desperate honesty: "Mary, [ begin to believe you found that compact of Anastasia's'in the car. Honest, Mary, that didn't mean a thing. I've spoken to her-only once_in the past six months." "I wouldn't contradict ycu fot worlds." she sald, "but who was it you were talking to at the -band concert last night?" "Last night? I forgot about that!" "So you talk fo her so often you can't remember!" Anger is catching and Ted ex- + ploded: "Don't talk to me about remembering! When I haven't had any buttons on my drawers since we got married!" "You unscrupulous liar! only -yesterday--" 3: "All you eewed was the. front of my drawers to the back!" . "Then got somebcdy elso to sew your buttons on!" she raged. "Maybe I will!" he yelled. ; - "I thought so! You want to get rid of me!" ' Heo controlled his voice with an effort. "I don't want to get rid ot you. 1 love you. I only want to:ex- plain something. Ever since the minute we got engaged I've avolded Anastasia like rat polson. I told her ten times never to come to the of- fico again." "Again?" So she's been to your office ten times!" "No, she hasn't!" he exclaimed In exasperation end threw: the per- When into pieces. " "Ted Foster! You did that so I wouldn't have the perfume after you promised it to me!" "I told Anastasia. ten times on the telephbne not to come to the office." 3 "Sure! Tén times she telephones you for money -- and ten times you sent it to her." "Mary!" his cry was half panic, half guilt, > "After-1 saw you with Anastasia 1 weit to tho bank. And she was there cashing one of your. checks." "I... .I.write a dozen ohecks a month, to all sorts of people. May- be she got one ot them second: hand." "Not that check! I got a look at it.

"That's very easily arranged!" sald Ted. The Deed Signed Mary gasped, rushed into the bed room, slamming the door, Ted, flushed with anger, hurried through the kitchen into the back yard, Each quickly repented of thelr hasty words, but when Mary hur-- ried beck, Ted had cooled off en- ough to seok a reconciliation, Mary had left the house for her mother's, The breach appeared to be un: bridgeable, Weeks went by and the new home {into which Ted and Mary had entered with such pros. pects of a happy married dife was placed on sale with Mr. Thomas' real estate agency. Mary's parents planned one last effort to bring her and Ted to- gether -- an interview between the estranged" couple when it became necessary for them both to sign the deed of sale of their home. They left them together In Mr, Thomas's office. They read the documents her father had spread before them with unnecessary at-. tention. When at last they looked up and their ®yes met, Ted spoke humbly but no longer met her eyes. "Mary, if you'd just tell me you know there was nothing wrong be- tween Anastasia and me. If you would promise me you could never believe anything like that again , ." Sho looked at him, her eyes stricken, hoping for a reconcilia- tion as deeply as he, but too sick and unBappy to take all the blame upon herself, "I think maybe . if you'd sim- about her . . .

And Ted seized the pen, signed his name to the deed, and hurried out. {To Be Continued) Manned By Women The Soviet tanker Embac (7,886 tons), plying in the Cas- pian Sea, has an all-women crew.

Revere Him as Her God'. Girl Children Often Sacrificed... The Hindu woman's husband, however ovil he may be, neverthe- less 18 to be revered as is her god, according to some of the sacred scriptures of Hinduism, says Mrs. Mildred Worth Pinkham in a study just issued by the Columbia Uni. versity Press. Seeking to ascertain to what ex; tent religion is responsible for chile marriage, infant mortality and en- forced prostitution among the Hin. du woman, , Mrs. Pinkham, who spent several years in India finds that these sacred Hindu writings seemed to produce much that was wholesome in spiritual exaltation and actual daily living, but also much that was injurious. "At times the Hindu woman has been'denied freedom of thought be- cause of some of the limitations which are unquestionably present in certain passages," she explains, "She has been fed ancient super- stition and cruel fear in many in. stances. Sometimes direct relations with: the supreme godhead have been denied to her. AGAINST REMARRIAGE "The prohibition against the re- marriage of widows by Manu has heen one factor in helping to bring. | --about--the--pathetic--condition --of | many Hindu widows. Even today their desolation is often pitiable, especially that of the child widows. Orthodoxy has been responsible in many cases for denying educa. tion to girls. Sacred scriptures have been used in many a Hindu husband as sanction to. repudiate his wife unjustly." Mrs. Pinkham shows that there are scriptural precedents and au- thority for the correction of exist- |. ing conditions. She urges the Hin- du to bring about a historical and scientific attitude toward sacred scriptures.

Other expariments showed that those plants which have milky Juices or woody stems keep longer if the stems have been seared over an open flame before placing in tap water.
