LIFE IS LIKE RADIO, YOU CAN TUNE OUT DULL PROGRAMS

Absorb and Use What You Like, but Don’t Begrudge Others of Having What Appeals to Tfrem, Says Martha Lee. * By Martha Lee Life is like ;i radio or a department store. You can’t appreciate all its activities. Absorb and use what you like, and don’t begrudge others having what appeals to them.

Maybe you don’t rare for stock market reports over the radio and the bedtime stories may bore you. but they're of absorbing interest to someone else and all you have to do is to tune in on something else and he happy yourself! So it's not postively necessary that you understand and see the "why” of other folks’ actions and pastimes, and it's worse than a waste of time to go about saying, ‘‘l just can't understand what he sees in her" or "I’d like to know how - on earth they think they can afford a new car,” and other pithy remarks of like nature. Annex what you need from the department store of life, but for goodness sakes, allow the other fellow the same privilege! Tries to Boss Her Dear Martha I,re: I wish you would tell me what I should do about a certain matter. [ have a. sister-in-law who spends a preat deal of her time bossing ir\p and tellmg me what mistakes I make in my home k management and she openly makes out that ■ I have poor taste in my clothesA I don't ~ want to insult her. in fact I am not the kind of nature to do that, but she certainly worries me a lot. MRS. MAMIE. Well if you are not the "kind of nature” to tell her firmly to take care of her own affairs, I suspect you’ll have to bear with her criticisms. There's just one suggestion. Has she herself excellent taste slid is she an A No. 1 manager? If she is, you may learn from her remarks and make them of real benefit.' If not. and she just enjoys the pastime of bullying you—why just don't let her —that's all. He Wants to Marry Her Dear Martha Lee: I am in desperate peed of help. I am going with a young man and we had planned to get married later, but now I find myself in a hole. He knows it and wants to marry me. and says if he didn't love mo he wouldn’t ask to marry me. Rut. Miss Lee. I'm afraid he wants to marry me just to save my folks from disgrace. Do you think he really loves me, and shall 1 let him sacrifice his life? • He says that he will go to the dogs if I don't marry him. He is planning to tell my folks in a lew days, but what shall 1 do? I think a lot of him. BETTY. Well, Betty, beggars can’t be choosers. Under the stress of circumstances in which you have placed yourself, I think you're mighty lucky to have this young man so gallantly offering to share the burden of your position. Certainly I think he loves you. He would be "fleeing the coop” in this emergency if he didn't. I can’t believe he wants to marry you to "save your folks from disgrace.”. She Fears Company B Dear Martha Lee: I have a relative Fwho wants me to let her young lady (laughter come and live with me and go to school. Here is why it's a problem to know what to do. I have been married four years, afid almost a year ago my sister. 17 yea's old. came to visit me. My husband tried to make love to her, so she had to leave. Now, I am not jealoushearted. but I know what happened in this way with my sister, and I’m afraid to let this girl come into my house for fear this might happen again. What do you think? WORRIED. I believe you would be wise to refuse to take her into your home. Even if your husband would have no further thought of side-stepping, you would fear this and it would be bound to make you more or less unhappy. And if this is your husbnnd’s weakness you don’t want to put temptation into his path. Her Regard Changes Dear (Martha Lee: I am a girl 17 years nld. and. as most of the girls of this age are I'm pretty crazy about the boys, but

FOUND WONDERFUL RELIEF FOR CRACKED, BLEEDING HANDS Had almost screamed with pain ••I a'*m writing to tell you what great relief Resinol Soap and Ointment have brought me. X had such ; terrible sore hands. They were dry ; and cracked open, which caused J them to bleed. When I put them in fcwater the pain was so great I could * have screamed and I could scarcely do any work at all. I had sent for a sample of Resinol Soap and Ointment, but I had tried about a dozen different remedies which brought no relief, so I had little faith in them and they had not been used. At last, however, in desperation I began to use your samples to see what good they would do. and was greatly surprised and delighted at the wonderful relief they gave. Now I would not be without Resinol Soap and Ointment, and my husband and children are also users of your preparations.” (Signed) Mrs. John Machemer, R. F. D.

the funny part of it is that I only like a hoy until I have a date with him. Then 1 don't like him any more. What do you think of this? Will 1 get over it and some time get so 1 like just one hoy? MAY Me. I hope so. It’s probably not fickleness on your part as much as just an expression of your youth.

TjTie Tinies watched the great balloon bnd Scouty shouted, “Pretty soon ’twill sail on out of sight because it’s going very fast. I wish that we were up there too, and riding through the aid, don’t you?” And all the others answered “yes" while watching it go past. It drifted almost out of sight and then swung slowly to the right, until completely turned around and heading back their way. Wee Clowny said, “Perhaps they’ve seen us way down here, with vision keen. Just think how for that ship could go in just a single day.” And then the ship much slower went. The Tinies wondered what was meant by cutting down it’s flying speed and circling round and round. One of the Tinies said, “Alas, perhaps they've run near out of gas. Why, if they keep on dropping they'll wind up upon the ground.” “Ha, Ha,” laughed Coppy. Then, said he, “That's something that just cannot be. There is no land around us so they'll have to stay in the air. How can they land upon the ground, when naught but water’s all around? If they should come down here they'd drown. They simply wouldn’t dare.” By now the ship was close at hand, and someone shouted, “This is grand. A rope is hanging way down below. Let's try and catch a hpld.” No sooner was that fine plan said, than they all saw, right over head the rope, that almost touched them as their boat on high waves rolled. And then wee Scouty reached right out and all the others heard him shout, “Hurrah, I'm climbing up the

rope. The rest of you all try.” And so, the others climbed up, too, and then the first thing that they knew, the airship carried them away. They bid their boat good-by.

BERET BRIMS Whereas the younger girl may wear the brimless beret, older women are finding a tiny brim more flattering, through the crown remains the same. FANCY CUFFS Dress gloves have fancy turnback cuffs, trimmed with checkerboard patterns or kid butterflies.

Something New Now it’s the “Gondola Bandit.” There have been taxi and auto bandits, hold-up men of every sort from train robbers to those who plied their trade in the days of Dick Turpin upon coaches of the aristocracy. But a gondola robber is anew one and in this case a very charming individual personated by Constance Talmadge, the Joseph M. Schenck star in productions for First National pictures.

Saint aid Smear

By ANNE AUSTIN

Wealthy RALPH CLUNY. 68. waa murdered Just before he waa to have married frivolous CHERRY LANE, 18. Immediately Cherry diaappears leaving a note for her eiater. FAITH, aaying *he could not go on with the weddint Cherry s elopement with CHRIS WILEY becomes known. News of the murder la kept from Cherry s Invalid mother, but she knows ot Cherry's marriage. Cherry has been engaged several times Once she tried to run away with ALBERT ETTELSON. a married traveling salesman, and was rescued by her sister and BOI) HATHAWAY. Faith s fianea and nephew of Cluny. Cherry admits that Cluny attempted to force the marriage, but protests her innocence. Faith suspect* Chris Wiley, thinking he knew that Cluny had willed much money to Cherry. Charles Reilly Neff, who drew up the will, testifies that Clunv made Cherry his chief beneficiary whether or not she married him. The coroner’s jury releases Cherry, but immediately she and her husband are arrested by DEVLIN, deputy district a furious when Bob tells her ATTORNEY STEPHEN CHURCHILL, whom he employed, thinks circumstances are against Cherry and suggests n plea of |ell-defcnae as the best chance of her footprints and a bit of torn strap suggest that the minxierrr might lie a cripple, but this evidence is not presented. NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY “WorA the district attorney nave taken possession of Mr. Cluny’s papers?” Faith asked, still whispering, so that Aunt Hattie’s sharp ears would not pick up any of the conversation. “He's so sure he has the right party under arrest that he’s bothering very little about the usual routine, it seems,” Bob answered. “I believe Banning lias left the flies in the custody of Neff, Uncle Ralph's partner, until he gets around to examining them. It's early, so that my arrival in the buildiag will not be particularly commented on. I’ll get off at the fifth floor, where an architect I know has an office. The elevator man will think I’m calling on my friend, as I frequently do. Then I’ll walk up to the seventh floor where Uncle Ralph’s offices are, and take care that no one is in them before I let myself in. As I told Churchill. I have a passkey to Uncle Ralp's offices. He had it made for me more than a year ago. I used to play chess with him at night, and sometime’s he’d send me over to the office to get a paper he needed. If they haven’t changed locks I can get in all right. I hope Neff’s gone home to dinner and that none of the clerks is working late tonight. But I’m off now, dear. Don’t worry. If they catch me at it —which they won’t—they can’t really do anything to me.” “Finish your supper first, dear,” Faith urged him. “Aunt Hattie will be hurt if you don’t eat three pieces of chicken at least. And you do need food.” she added, her anxious eyes on his worry-ravaged young face. It was a few minutes after 6 when Bob Hathaway left the house, on his burglarizing mission. During the two hours that Faith waited for word from him she was grateful for Aunt Hattie’s unceasing flow of conversation, even for that indomitable spinster’s furious arguments with Joy over the haircut she was giving the child. “You’re cutting it too short!” Joy wailed, her grief for her mother submerged in this new tragedy. “I’ll look like a funny paper kid. I did hold still, too! Ouch, you cut my ear!” "If you don’t quit making all that

rumpus over nothing, I’ll tari your hide!” Jim Lane looked up from his paper to scowl ak. his youngest daughter over the top of his glasses. Faith smiled behind the book she was trying to read. She was glad that her father was asserting himself For years Martha Lane’s word had been law in the Myrtle Street house. Now Jim was feeling his authority for the first time in years. “I’ll be good for him, make him forget his troubles, if he bawls us all out,” Faith told herself. It was juSt after 9 when three short honks of an automobile horn sent Faith flying out of the house. “I wanted to see you out here, away from the family," Bob told her as she climbed into the car and took her eat beside him. ”1 think I found it —the letter, I mean. Os course Cherry didn't remember the name. It is signed with an initial only—and that initial is not C, but B. I had the devil of a time locating it. If it had happened to be a T or an S —good Lord! But fortunately B is the second letter of the alphabet. At that, I had to wade through all the C’s first, then start over again with the A’s. And it takes a whole drawer to hold the first four letters of the alphabet. I never realized Uncle Ralph had such an extensive correspondence file." “Good heavens!” Faith laughed. “Are you going to talk all night? Let me see it. Bob.” “I took the original straight to Churchill. Bad business to monkey
