‘WHY?’

IK3[ ADV ENTURE-S It -1 of The twins IrSi by Olive Roherij* Barton mßtLdSui THE TWINS GO TO THE PALACE. ALONG THE ROAD rattled the little car on Its way to the palace of the Land o’ Lost Things. The twins were so anxious to ask Queen Rag Doll if she knew anything of their lost monkey that the tin soldier made the car fairly fly. Besides —well, you know Nancy and Nick were w earing their green shoes all the time, and no doubt they were putting a little speed into the automobile, too. Or It may have been the penny wheels, who can tell? They say pennies go fast these days. Anyhow, they whizzed along at a fearful rate, through towns where all (he little lost people were living. Suck funw little people they were, and oh, so many! There were jackknives and pins and thimbles and quite, oh, quite, a number of collar buttons, too, besides other things.

The twins went into a large hall, where Queen Rag Doll sat on a throne. At last they were there, or near enough, at least, to see the towers of the palace, which glistened like diamonds in the sun. The palace was made of a hundred biscuit tins, and it had a tower on every corner. "Now,” warned the magical mushroom in Nancy's pocket, “you're going to have a surprise, but don't show it. When you see the queen, just don't let on.” “Let on what?” asked Nancy and Nick, rather puzzled. “Oh, just don’t let on. You’ll see.” And the mushroom wouldn't say anything more. Still wondering what they were not to “let on” about, the twins went up a hundred tin steps and through a doorway into a large hall, where Queen Rag Doll sat on a throne. "Why, it's Ruby Joan, my own lost rag doll!” Nancy was just about to cry out, when she suddenly remembered the mushroom's words, "not to let on.” So she stuck her tongue into her cheek to keep it quteL—Copyright, 1920.

Confessions OF A BRIDE U — L “Jane, dear!" Cbrys called softly. She -'ose as she spoke and Jordan Spence rose also, and they emue toward me, band io hand, like little children. Evidently they expected me to accept their love affair as a matter of course! That was quite easy be'-ause I hail accepted it long before they themselves had dared to admit Its existence to themselves! I made no comment on the familiar clasping of their bands. Chrya continued: “I’m selfish. Jane! Just think! You might have gone down " I stopped her with a caress! Then I turned to Dr. Spence with: “Gene Archer! He was on hoard, you know! Where do bis relative* live?” The question roused Spenre from his dedication ta the service of Chrys and set him to consider the wider demands which the tragedy made upon him. Dr. Travers, coming slowly with evil tidings, was vastly relieved to find that we knew the worst. Together the men as sumed all obvious duties and Invented many more. They wired Mother Larimer and Jim. Jr, assuring both that they did not believe the report that the “lone” had gone down. She was a sunreme example of non-sinkable craft They Insisted that she must be afloat and that she would be discovered as soon ae the high sea subsided. They forwarded the news that I had not been aboard the “lone” when she sailed, although the wire service reported Mrs. Robert Lorimer and Dr. Henry Travers as belonging to the party on the missing yacht. . Jim. Jr., wired back tha* he bad obtained permission to go to n gulf city from whlett point he himself would take up the search for the yacht in a plane. “And I wouldn’t wonder If the kid picked up some clews! He was always a lucky devil," I heard Spence remark to Travers. “A score of flying men are on the job, but I’ll bet on Jim!” Said I to myself. "There are lots of new things under the sun. Never before bns a boy set out in a plane to rescue his father from a derelict. In the name of high adventure. It ought to follow that .Tim should sweep down and snatch his father from a life raft.” By such mad Inventions I counted the chances which would bring Daddy back to us. Underneath my anxiety about Daddy was the deeper concern about my husband. Finally I realized that everybody was caught up with the shipwreck and I had to remind (hem that Bobs fate might be worse than his father's. I said to Cbrys : “I'm going to ask Dr. Travers to go out to (he hacienda with me at once. I see that you are depending on Jordan Spence.” “I am,” she said simply. “Thank you for letting him remain here.” IVhen Dr. Travers anil 1 were started, at last, for the harlenda. I thought of what, Daddv Lorimer had decided about us when he found that we ;iad left the yacht together. I felt hysterical and awfully sorry for myself. It semed dreadful that he who had oved me so should l arbor such a dreadful notion about me. Travers drove the car. We seldom spoke as we tore along, but I knew that be was brooding over the disaster from which he hnd escaped, while my mind was divided between the catastrophe we were leaving behind us and that which wc wore about to face. I couldn't plan what to do at the hacienda and Travers knew nothing whatever of the situation there. We would have to adapt ourselves to circumstances as we found them. One thing was sure: If life ever did HOW ANY GIRL CAN HAVE PRETTY EYES No girl or woman la pretty if her eyes are red, strained or have dark rings.

Gold Star Mother Pleads That Hero Dead Be Untouched NEW YORK, Feb. 26,-Gold star mothers of America were addressed today by Mrs. Mabel Fonda Garelssen, whose only son, Lieut. Scott McCormick, was officer "o few of whom are jjmjjF personally touched ,(Mf 1/ /"WA by grief, the gold J /MABEL star women, those I ‘/fO/YDA most deeply con- GARE/SSEN cerned, have been conspicuous by their silence. With many the matter was settled when their loved ones were burled; In France their bodies should lie tn peace. “Asa gold star mother, who served with the A. E. F. in France, and whose only child lies there, I now make a plea to all my sisters who suffer the same anguish I do. "When our boys wen to France, bad our government not thoughtlessly promised us that the dead as well as the living should be returned, we would have been spared the additional distress to which we are now being subjected. Before making such a promise our government should have considered the hideous menace It. would be both to France and America to bring over fio.ouo mangled, decomposed bodies from that country to this. “The sacrilege is unbelievable; still that is just what is being agitated, what we are facing -one of the greatest disgraces that have ever descended upon America. Deep wounds that ttme lias helped us to endure will be tom cruelly open, to bleed afresh. For what? Fat bsnk accounts for steamship companies, coffin makers and undertakers. “When thf gold star women were benumbed and bewildered with grief, when they could think of nothing but the utter emptiness of life, Imposing but anonymous circulars were sent out to bereaved families directing them to urge thelf congressman to bring pressure at Washington to return the d&ad soldiers Gold star women, those who have the good of the people at heart, do not write anonymous letter*. Now that we can all think clearly, let us gold star women save America from a disgrace. “1 hope all gold star mother* of America will write roe their feeling# on this mutter to my home at 610 West 114tb street.
