Keeping F.use With the Hoopers [The Hoopers, an average American family of five, living in a suburban town, on a limited income, will tell the readers of the Daily Times now the many present-day problems of the home are solved by working on the budget that Mrs. Hooper has evolved and found practical. Follow them daily in an Interesting review of their home life and let rn to meet the conditions of the high cost of Uving with them.] TUESDAY. There had been no difficulty about ob tainlng money on the house ani after tße few necessary formalities demanded by the bank, the thouusand dollars was handed over to Henry and the Hooper home .hat had been for so many years absolutely free from debt was again burdened with a mortgage. She had decided to take out SSO a week for the month of January and use it just as she had done the contents of Henry’s pay envelope for so long and then charge all her other expenses to a special account to be deducted from the remaining SBOO. To make it convenient and so they would not have so much money around the house she went downtown again after lunch and after consulting the cashier of the local bank, who was one of her neighbors, she deposited the thousand dollars and opened a checking account. This was the first time she had ever had an account in the bank against which she could check to pay her bills. She had always kept the small sum of money she had left from month to month from her income in a cash box at home and had never succeeded in assembling enough at one time to open a bank account. “Whatever we have left of this thousand dollars when we get settled in the city I shall put in the baul. at once,” said Mrs. Hooper, "and pay all my bills with checks in future. It is much more satisfactory and makes one’s bookkeeping simpler.” "How much money h3ve you rn hand in your cash box?” inquired Henry. "Three hundred and fifty-five dollars and twenty-six cents.” answered Mrs. Hooper consulting her last talan sheet, “but the greater part of that must be paid out this month to settle the insurance premium that is due and the taxes and insurance on the house, the doctor's bill and the balance on the washing machine.” “Well since you’ve already opened a bank account the thing for you to do is to take that $355 down and deposit it also,” said Henry. "Then you can pay all those bills with checks and begin your new system of keeping your accounts before you leave Mayfield.” “Os course'” exclaimed Mrs. Hooper. “That's the very thing to do. Then 1 can draw out $25 at a time so that I can still buy my food'supplies for cash and do the Liecesßary shipping for th<= house and not Be bothered with the balances from my Pkmumte accounts that I keep around for using.” make rh.- least difi'erer .4 in t- “ r ’ ' - - : ~ :■ c>k • ■ r■ ' 1 ■ Kfluß Jour separate balar. will shew !<3pKgf“ as they always did ixc.-pt 'hat will be in the bank instead of box up stairs.” menus for the three meals on SESpnesday are: WT BREAKFAST Sliced Oranges and Bananas ’ Omelet Cereal.

Men You May Marry By ETHEL R. PEYSER Has a man like this proposed to you? Symptoms: Can’t stand for anything that he isn’t. He didn’t go to college so he despises college and college men. He thinks they are fools and have wasted their best years and all that sort of thing. He thinks a man that always dresses up to schedule is.a fop and thinks that as long as a man has a dinner coat and a good looking set of clothes for work, It’s “all any man needs.” Hates any one with a car better than he has, “A Ford is good enuf for me.” Loves you, but can’t get over the fact that you would have married a very charming college chap had he lived. IN FACT He would people the world only with his kind. Prescription to h!s bride: 0/J Be gentle with him and try to show him that J\r, the various things he condemns are not so bad.

Has Hubby Whipped ..... . Ei Es, >:/ * <J7kite3t*ul \ f ( /*rl. If you can’t do It yourself, ladles, hire a strong-arm man to do it for you. This is what Mrs. Ella M. Whitehead did when her husband publicly insulted her. She hired John Hartnett, a Providence (R. I.) strong-arm man, to give him a beating, and be dirt. Result: Hubby had her in court on an attempted murder charge, but she explained to the judge that she had no intention of assassinating him, but felt that he deserved a licking. Whitehead, she claims, is old enough to be her father. She also told of having to call a policeman to eject another woman from her home, and is now seeking a divorce. The beat ing cost her SIOO, and she sag3 the satisfaction was worth double that sum. PUSS IN BOOTS JR. * Br David Cory ’ When the snow storm was over, Puss Junior turned in the Good Gray Horse ahd said: “If I take you from this barn, I may be caught for stealing. Nobody will believe that you are really my horse.” "Why not?” replied the Good Gray Horse, “the man who put me in this stall said that when my rightful owner came along he would gladly turn me over to him.” "In that ease,” replied Puss Junior, “I will ride you away. And if any one try to stop us, you shall tell him what you have just told mo.” Puss then put on the saddle and bridle and mounted his old-time steed. Tom Thumb sat behind him holding on to Puss with both hands lest he slip and fall off. Robin Redbreast seemed uncertain what to do. Ho looked at Puss as If expecting an Invitation to join our two small travelers, “Would you like to come along?” said Puss. "Indeed I would,” replied Robin Redbreast. "Come along then,” cried Tom Thumb, “the more the merrier.” As they traveled on. laughing merrily —for Tom Thumb was a funny fellow and could tell many a fine joke they came to a milestone. Near the milestone stood a pig. Taking his hat off. he showed to the astonished eyes of our small travelers a very bald head. There was hard'y a hair upon it, except, perhaps, three or four. 'Tt certainly would have been an easy matter to count them. “Whoa!" cried Puss Junior. “Whoa!” eaehoed little Tom Thumb. The Robin alighted on the milestone while the Pig stared at the Good Gray Horse. "You’ll get a dreadful cold in your head if you don’t put your cap on,” cried Puss. “So I will,” said the Pig, and Input his hat back on his head. “May I join you?” "Yes,” said Puss Junior, “come along’’’—Copyright, 1921, David Cory.

Paiiy Fashion Hints i9ibO That a frock may be practical, suitable for street wear, woolen and warm, and at the same time strikingly smart. Is conclusively proved by the afternoon dress shown In the accompanying sketch. Made of marine blue cloth, the first arresting note is its generous trimming with pure scarlet. There is a loose scarlet collar, a scarlet vest that runs down to the hips and ends in a perpendicular land on the skirt. Rather short, three quarter, flare sleeves ire eked out by a band and narrow tight cuffs of the s'-arlet, said scarlet being broken up by appliqed diamonds of black satin set on a design of narrow black latticed hands. But perhaps the most striking note of all is the little cluster of cut steel beads in the center- of each black diamond an i from which flash and dangle three pendants of shining cut steel. We have tired pretty thoroughly of beads, having done them to death in the last two or three seasons. However, they have so fur become a habit that we can not quite give them up all at once, so we have so'erly and conservatively chosen cut Jet and cut steel, satlatediy pushing away from us all the rest of the multicolored pile. This little frock also advocates the uneven hem line with its full side panel tunic, and a conservatively low waist line, the girdle beln placed Just below what we call our nor: waist line. However, it la loose and unfitted enough to preserve the popular straight silhouette. ILLINOIS WOMEN IN STATE SESSION Constitutional Convention Questions Discussed. CHICAGO, Jan.

DEVILS UNLEASHED By EDWIN G. WOOD A Story of Tropical Seas That Will Hold You From Beginning to End

Chapter L The schooner Bald Eagle rolled lazily In the long swell, as she moved slowly ahead under her auxiliary power, toward a blue-looking, cloudlike object on the horizon, bearing on her starboard bow-. She was running at low speed, cautiously, as thought uncertain and feeling her way. The eyes of the man at the wheel were bloodshot and heavy and he seemed to he a little unsteady, although he had small difficulty in holding the vessel to her course. An alcoholic aura surrounded him, the vile, stale smell of heavy drinking, an odor that oozed through the pores of his skin as well as breathed from bis lungs, polluting the air about him. In the waist stood a group of men, their voices rising now and then In angry dispute, and the atmosphere surrounding them was also heavy with the odor of rum. They had the appearance of being well-soaked; Just enough to make them reckless devils, while still retaining control to a certain extent over minds and bodies. All but oue, that Is, a man about (i feet tall, heavy in proportion, with long arms and huge, red fists, and coarse, determined features; this man showed less evidence of drink than the others. Just aft the cabin two figures were leaning against the starboard rail, apparently Intent on watching the clou*like object on the horizon; a man of about 80 and a girl of pronaoiy 2.3. The man's face was pale and a look of Intense worry and anxiety hung about his eyes. The girl was pale and careworn, too, and kept as near to the man as she could, without In reality clinging to him. During the days these two ha* been fellow passengers they had exchanged scarcely a dozen words up to the present. Now they conversed In guarded tones, to avotd being overheara by the man at the wheel, who leered at them now and again in a suspicious manner. with the light of the beget in his eyes when they rested on the girL “Can you hear anything they are saying, Miss Jameson?” the man asked, his voice lower and almost to a whisper. “No. Now and then an oath and a few disconnected words when they get excited: that’s all. I can't get the meaning of what I do hear.” The two remained silent for a space, straining their ears to catch the drift of anything they might hear, but getting little satisfaction. The girl spoke. “Mr Hunter, do you suppose that blue-looking thing over there is an Island?” "Most likely; and uninhabited, by civilized beings, at least, or they wouldn't be putting in toward It.” "How far do you suppose it is?" “Heaven knows I'm no Judge of distances on the water. Not many miles, though, I guess." Th man at the wheel was scowling at the two, his ugly face screwed up with anger in bis disappointment at being unable to hear what was being said : "Avast there, you two by the rail, an’ stow that gab!” he finally snarled, ending with an oath. Hunter looked down at the girl as she cringed closer to him. “Pay no attention to the beast," he muttered; “he'il not leave the wheel. If he starts anything— * Hunter paused significantly, while his hand closed ever an automatic In his coat pocket. The girl shuddered, then looked up. “Did they leave you armed?” “Yes.” he answered disgustedly. “Thev were so drunk and so crazy to do away with the captain and first mate that they didn't make a clean Job of anything except the murder of the two officers. And the second mate, Jnnsen, for some reason insisted that neither of us should be armed—-at first. So there you are. Can you shoot?” “Yes.” “Move a little closer to the rail—nearer to me, so as to hide our hands from that beast at the wheel. Now Hide that And kill—you hear?—kill. If you are attacked, but never give up that gutv, even If you have--” “I understand.” she answered quietly, but with an Inward shudder. “But you? You will need this.” “I have another. One was In my trunk. Got It out while they wore squabbling. There’s a rifle there, too. I was equipped for hunting—after my Intended visit to Australia. But what brought you here ?’’ “I am—or was—going to Australia to my brother. Captain White was a friend, I chose this way to avoid people on passenger steamers. I like quiet, sometimes You see, I’ve Just lost my father—all I had but my brother.” “I see. I was running away from people, too. But no matter. Listen!” The knot of men in the waist had fallen Into a louder, angrier dispute. The big, bullying mate, Jansen was having trouble to keep the others in hand, was facing them now, threateningly, with a revolver in hts hand. Some of the meu were armed with iron belaylngptns. deadly weapons at close quarters; some had knives. Nothing but Jansen's bullying front kept them back, for all respect for authority was dead in them, avid they were Insane in their determination to gain their ends. Jansen's brain was clearer than theirs, he having less, and he was looking furtltfr ahead. “Back, I tell ye,” he stormed, waving the revolver. ”I)o ye want to ruin everything? I tell yj we don't want no petticoat— ’’ Hunter suddenly glanced In the direction of the wheel. The man there was in the act of leaving his post, (o spring forward with a 'knife in his hand. Hunter turned swiftly and fired. The man pitched to the deck, sending the knife clattering against the cabin. “Ootfie,” Hunter cried, seizing the girl's hand; “into the cabin, quick!” The disputing, snarling seamen stopped their wrangling in amazement at the sound of the shot, and stood staring, with open mouths for a moment, then regaining themselves, charged aft with a roar. As Hunter and the girl reached the companionway, he fired again, and a sailor in the lend .threw up his hands and slumped to tho deck, those behind stumbling over the body. This short delay gave Hunter and the girl time to dart into the cabin, close the two smalt doors that swung together, slide the hatch, and fasten both doors and hatch. Hunter drew the girl into his own storeroom. closed and bolted this door also. “They can’t be kept out very long, he said, turning to the girl and smiling. “They'll soon batter in, but when they tackle this door we’ll account for a few of them before they get us. J’ve put two of ’em to sleep already, 1 think. That leaves eight or ten more of ’em, not counting Jansen. Just how he’ll stand toward ns after this, I don't know.” The girl turned to him with a brave look, but she was colorless. “Did you hear what Jansen said—about me?” "Yes—but don't worry. We'll squirm out of it some way.” They could hear the angry voices on deck at the companion hatch, Jansen s raised above the others, threatening and trying to reason alternately. Blows began

to fall on the hatch, and the girl shrank against the wall. “Keep clear of the door,” Hunter directed, taking his stand to oue side, automatic in hand. “When they break in, they may shoot through the door. Be ready to kill when they get In.” "What about the port over the berth —can't they get In through that?” “Too small. We’ll keep an eye on It, though. They might try to pot us that way.” The Bald Eagle was huuilt on peculiar Hues. There was but one entrance to the cabin, that of the companionway. The cabin was used as a dining-room also, the galley being at the forward end. The food was hauded through an opening, or port, cut into the wall separating cabin and galley, by the cook to the cabin boy. This opening was also too narrow to admit the passage of a human body. In the cabin were four staterooms. Two ov them had been occupied by' the captain and first'mate; Hunter and the girl occupying the other two. The second mate, Jansen, had given up his room to Hunter. The schooner was now roiling heavily, evidently having gotten into the trough of the sea. Hunter remarked that she must be without a steersman, and as if In answer to this, they heard Jansen bellow an order for someone to man the wheel. The sound of blows ceased, and the two men in the cabin heard footsteps drawing away and the muttering of voices. “Holding a conference,” Huater smiled at the girl. They seated themselves on the side ov the berth, weapons ready. Hunter cast side-long, uneasy glances at the girl near him. She was pale, but steady. He admired her courage, bu,ut she was so frail, so delicately built, not much more than a little girl, that she filled him with apprehension. dread of what might be in store, and fear that she might not be able to hold up under the stress. Surrounded by hums a devils, penned in this little room wlih every element of hazard against them —well, he could do but one thing, fight till he was down, and the rest would have to come as it would. The girl was armed, said she could shoot, but He looked at her again as she sat holding the black automatic in her small, white hand. He scarcely knew this girl, for he had studiously avoided her. He was morose, running from an ugly disappointment, and had kept to himself She, seeing his d-sire to be let alone, of course, had not intruded. When mutiny broke out that morning the captain and first mate being killed and thrown over the side, the girl and the man naturally drew together; he to protect her r.ud she seeking his protection and companionship She caught hi* eyes resting intently upon her. “What is it? Why do you look at me that way?” Il laughed nervously. "Nothing." ”1 know tetter,” she retorted sharply. ”1 can almost read your thoughts. You’re thinking I am so uterly helpless—a handicap, maybe—” “Not by a d—n sight!” ho snapped. “Oh. I—” “Never mind—l’ve heard that sort of thing before What is It. then? If you are unduly worrying about mfe, stop it. I'm sorry to be a burden, but I promise to do my part when the time comes.” The pow wow on deck was still proceeding, but they could hear nothing of what was being said. Presently the girl’s feelings smoothed out and she asked: “What is the meaning of all this, anyway? Everything seemed to b peaceful and orderly until this morning—. What was the cause of it?” “Loot," was the terse answer. "You see. Captain White had considerable money in gold at oard, and in some way it leaked out, and- well, there you are. Motive enough for such os we are dealing with. That's the whole simple solution.” “And Jansen, what part does he take in it?” “I think ie's at tile bottom of the whole thing. lie's a filthy, brutal scamp—” “But why Is it that he seems so anxious to protect us?” He hesitated before answering. “Well, you see, yesterday morning I was with the captain talking privately. I noticed that Jansen eyed us suspiciously, whenever he got the chance. And then I went down into the captain’s room with him. Jansen has been keeping his eye on roe ever since. He thinks the captain told me where the gold is hidden.” “The~v didn’t get It, then?” "They did not: T feel sure of that.” “I>ld the captain tell you?” she asked anxiously. "He did. He seemed to get an inkling of what was coming, and so took me into his confidence. So Jansen's hope is In making roe tell where the stuff is—l couldn't do that very well dead.” “And you won’t'do it alive,” she suggested. He thanked her with his eyes, relieved by the spirit shown in her words. "Not much.” ho confirmed, and then added dryly: “It make much difference anyway, for after they got what they went, we’d ho in the same pickle.” “What Is their intention toward me?” hesitatingly. He looked at her and she saw the pain and reluctance to speak in his dark eyes. “Tell me,” she urged. "Keep nothing back. I think frankness is best. It can do no good to keep me in ignorance of anything.” “Very well. From what I could gather, Jansen wanted to Bot ns both ashore on that island we are heading for, and leave us there. Be figured they could make their getaway before wo were picked up, I suppose. The men objected ” He paused and she took it up. "I see. They were willing to let you go. but not me. You needn’t finish. But why is it that Jansen wishes to let me go?” "I suppose he thinks you would hamper their chances of getting away, and —thero would be quarreling and dissension ” A noise near the porthole above them attracted their attention, and the gruff voice of Junsen broke in on their conversation. Chapter 11. “Below there—Mr. Hunter I” Jansen hailed. "Well, what do you want?” “I want to talk t’ ye.” "Talk away then. I can hear.” Jansen, paused as though trying to frame his message. "We can’t talk thisaway. I want t’ talk to ye private like. "Open an’ let me below so’s we can talk sociable.” “Nothing doing. Jansen. Talk where you arp, or let it alone—l’m satisfied either way.” Jansen paused again, then whined: “Now, loolty here, Mr. Hunter, you knows I been your friend? it this any way to treat a friend? I asks ye polite, now, it is?” “I appreciate your friendship, Jansen,” Hunter returned quietly, “but Just the same, you’ll have to talk where you are or not at all.” (To lie Continued.)
