MANIA FOR POSSESSION OFT WRECKS FAMILY PEACE
We Must Give Up Idea of Completely ‘Owning’ T hose We 1 Love, If We’d Be Happy. By Martha Lee The only real possessions we ever have are ourselves. We possess the affections of qthers and the right to count in their lives only so long as we attract or help them. Yet no instinct of oujs is so illogical or impossible of permanent or complete realization as this instinct for possession.
We want to buy the gown we admire, or the rug we coveet. It’s hard to see and admire the little knickknacks that strike our fancy without immediately planning a way to have them for our own. It’s the same with human relationships, and much of our unhappiness springs from this instinct for possession, but— Having a framed marriage license does not mean that we possess love. Unless we hold it voluntarily we do not have it. Our very children are only ours to a degree. We cannot chain their spirits or live their lives for them. We are happiest when we accept this philosophically and are grateful and happy for good at hand. Let’s not make life intolerable for those we love by our mistaken sense of responsibility and desire for possession. "I can sit on the river bank and enjoy all the beauty of sky and water quite as well as if I owned all the

Lovely Hair in a Few Minutes Hair too often is left to look like nothing more than hair. And when It is just that, it can not attract attention to you. Nothing causes people to lose their desire to be near you like carelessness, and one of the first things we all become careless about is our hair, because shampooing is so much trouble. Hair must be kept clean, always. If you neglect it, the dandruff and film o> oil which attaches itself to each strand steals away the most precious and fascinating charm you have—beautiful hair. Shamx>ooing is ■only a beginning, because it does not "clean thoroughly. Put a few dashes of Danderine on your brush the next time you fix your hair and draw it through with long, even strokes clear to the &calp, so each strand will become alive and glowing. That is the quicket and easiest way to keep it as fresh as the morning dew, because the minute Danderine touches the oily film on your hair it leaves instantly. The result is marvelously soft, silken-like, abundant locks. It will not be dried out, or greasy either. And Danderine is so inexpensive, too. The 35c bottle will last you a long time. It makes the convenience of bobbed hair even more pleasing because it helps to keep in your waves. You will never be without it. Danderine * cMakes Qrearns of t Beautiful Hair I

acres within resych." A wise English poet said that once. He had the secret of happiness within his thought. Her Son Married Dear Martha Lee: I am a very unhappy woman. t ljave an only son. 27 years old and until he met a silly girl two months ago. we were as happy as it is possible to be. I am a widow and my boy and I had been so much to each other. I lived just to make a home for him. This girl does not realize what she has done in taking my boy from me. Howcan I find life worth living again? BROKEN-HEARTED MOTHER. By realizing that ypur son is not a possession of yours. Surely if you truly love him, you can see that his happiness would be considered first. You can view this matter in two ways: That you now have two children, or that you have lost one. The last conclusion would be foolish and would not give _yoy the happiness that the loving desire to take them both to your heart would give you. Try this. “Curly Locks’’ says she is going with a young man whom she loves dearly. She is troubled by the fact that he wants to “pet” to the exclusion of conversation or going places. She wants to keep his love, hates to run chances of losing him, but feels that his inclination is overdone. Well, if you want to keep him, Curly Locks, you're headed in the wrong direction when you allow extrema and constant attention of the kind you mention. You are foolish not to use your judgment, as you will lose him anyway, •in time, unless you succeed in getting ljis affection on a more substantial basis. “Lucy T.” knows a. young man she is fond of, but he has ceased to pay her attentions. Her sorority is giving a party and she would like him to be there. It will be all right to invite him. Lucy. Perhaps he has just been busy lately, rather than entirely indifferent. “Margaret” sees a young man in the elevator where she is employed every day. He looks'-as if he wants to speak and Margaret wants to know if she should break the ice and speak first. L No. Don’t get acquainted that way, Margaret. If the young man has any caliber, and is really interested himself, he will find means to make your acquaintance that will not place you in an undesirable j light.

WHAT HAS HAPPENED: Diana Brooks, beautiful daughter of Roger Brooks, owner and publisher of the Catawba City Times, and a eliain of nine other newspapers, was kidnaped and then released, unharmed. Her father is engaged in a persistent fight against the corrupt administration of Cntnwba City and through the medium of the Times, redoubles his attacks on politicians and the King and defies the Underworld. A few days later Brooks himself disappears. Donald Keene, literary editor in an attempt to lorate Brooks, is wounded ami forced to remain entombed for 50 hours In n sub-erllar with Edna (Teddy) Farrell, his ward, and Sob sister of the Times. She effects their rescue and while both are In a hospital, Roger Brooks suddenly reappears. Out of gratitude and because he has learned that Teddy loves, him. Don asks Iter lo marry him. She refuses, realizing that he does not care for her as she cares for him. Roger Brooks, on his return, finds that Brooks newspaper stork is being manipulated and susperts John IV. Walden, member of a prominent law firm, of being involved In Hie plot to wreck the Brooks organization. Continuing his Investigation. Brooks bribe* Copley, an ez-eonvirt. to tell what he knows of the pint against him. Teddy goes Into Don’s office for a list of new honks and he wonders if pe haps he doesn’t love her after all. NOW GO ON. CHAPTER XVI “Let me have a book. Don, won’t you?” He started guiltily. There was a note of sadness in the girl’s lowspoken > tones, an odd pathos that carried a hint of bitterness. He rose quickly and stepped across to the bookcase against the wall. He selected three books. “Here, girlie,” he said, placing them on the desk before her, “here are ‘The Green Hat,’ ‘The Great Gatsby’ and ‘Dark Laughter.’ They’ll hold you for a while, I fancy.” She rose, picking up the books at the same time. “Thanks. Donny,” she said softly, using the name his mother liAd been won’t to use when he was a boy. "I’ll read my head off now, I’m afraid.” Donald Keene remained scaled at his typewriter wrapped in thought for a long while after Teddy had gone. He was facing a double love problem, but In one, case it was a different love problem than face most men. Instead of unrequited love on the part of the girl It seemed to be on his part. But, was it altogether unrequited, this love of the girl who had responded so splendidly in that great hour of his need when he, unconscious, helpless, lay on the threshold of death? Then before his mental vision rose , the face of the girl with sparkling black eyes, hair with the purple sheen of a raven's wing in it, and full, red lips. But with this girl his problem was the old ayerage one. He was the supplicant and by no means certain of his position. He loved her—or so he believed. But whether his love was returned or not was a question as yet unanswered. The Brooks home loomed like an old feudal castle in the background of terraced lawns, thought Donald Keene as he approached it in the first darkening shadows of a May twilight. It was a fit setting, mused Don in whose veins flowed a strong leavening of Romance, a fit setting for a queen—a queen named. Lola. He had been out of the hospital ten days. His step was again firm, his spirits buoyant. The crisis that.

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES
brooded over the Catawba City Times distunbed him much of the time, it is true, waking or sleeping. But the lure of spring was irresistible. It almost made him forget, temporarily at least, the trouble that menaced Pop. The sun, just sinking below the horizon, was warm although the air was still mildly chilly. Joe, the old gardener of the Brooks estate, tipped his hat to Don as the latter came up the w’alk and ; in the act dropped his hoe. “Been quite a little while since T seen yuh,” he said, his rheumy old eyes peering into the younger man’s face. “Heard somethin’ ’bout yer bein’ shot. Feelin’ better, are yuh?” “Yep, fit as a top, Joe. How are you?” Don patted the old man's round, toil-bent shoulder. “Middlin’ fair —middlin’ fair. Looks like good weather fer th’ shrubs an’ things,” said the gardener stooping to recover his hoe. “See them buds?” he went on quickly as he straightened up. “nigh t’ bustin’ they be. an’ barrin’ a cold spell, them tuberoses I planted last fall ought to thrive.” Joe had got on the topic which, Don knejv, could prove endless. He hastened to cut it short. Diana and Lola were expecting him and he already was late, having dispensed with his car for the sake of a trolley ride to the suburbs. -The walk of five blocks to the Brooks residence, he had felt, would be invigorating. He nodded pleasantly to Joe and walked up to the front door. A moment's wait after lifting the heavy knocker at the side of the entrance and Mrs. Ingram was holding the door wide open, a welcoming smile on her motherly face. Mrs. Philip Ingram, Roger Brooks' widowed sister, was undisputed sovereign of her realm constituting the management of the Brooks household. Since the death of her husband five years before she had been Pop's housekeeper. “Lola, Diana—all of us have been waiting since you called up and said you were coming.” She squeezed his arm lyDiana had hoard the ring of the bell and emerged from the study where she had been ensconced with a book. Her lips parted over a set of perfect white teeth in a flashing smile. “A little late, Don.” “It was so lovely outside I decided to walk.” He took her slender hand almost perfunctorily. “You look radiant, Diana. Is Lola home?” The question was frankly eager. “Oh, then, it was not ao much dad's afafirs that you came to talk about! Now, Don!” she reproached him laughingly, “You really came to see Lola.” v There was the barest quiver of Impatience in Diana’s voice. “I'll call her.” she added hurriedly. “In tli’ meantime make yourself comfortable, Don.” Lola had remained in her room deliberately. Diana told herself as she mounted the stairs. It was just some of her cousin s pose of being unattainable. Then immediately she reproached herself for her cattiness. Lola Mantell sat before a full-

length mirror as her cousin entered. Her round, sensuous arms, were unclad hovering over the array of cosmetics on the dressing table. “Don's here. He asked for you particularly. Can you be down soon?” Diana asked, making an effort to keep her unexplainable resentment out of her voice. "Oh, Dia, shall I wear my black georgette or—or what In th’ name of goodness shall I put on?” Lola's smooth brow puckered with affected concern. She rose and walked to the clothes press. The folds of the short beribboned chemise fell away from the round firm-knees. The picture she made cogitating there might easily madden any man, thought Diana. Envious women had called Lola Mantell cold and calculating. Some said her natural propensities were those of a siren. In appearance she almost merited these characterizations. Her hair was the blue-black of midnight. It swept back from a low cream-tinted brow in the pert sauciness of an extreme boyish bob. Under the brows glowed great black eyes. They could bo velvety with warmth or glitter like flint sparks, according to her mood. In height she was shorter than Diana and without Diana’s slenderness. While the latter’s beauty won admiration it was balanced with a mental and spiritual appreciation. Lola’s beauty struck the senses. In age she was 25. Diana watched meditatively the

process of dressing. She responded half heartedly to her cousin’s warm glances and chummy talk. Lola had always puzzled her a little. Since her father’s death five years before, Lola had made her home with her uncle, Roger Brooks. Her position in the household was that of one of the family. Although dependent upon her uncle’s bounty, she enjoyed the same privileges that were accorded his daughter. "Oh, I think I’ll put on th' black georgette,” Lola announced as If arriving at a very important decision. ' Diana had known all along that it would be the black georgette. Lola knew that Its clinging transparency enhanced the creamy fullnec3 below her throat; that black was especially becoming to her. Don sprang up with alacrity as the rousins entered. His eyes were for" Lola only. “Don came over to talk about dad's stock troubles,” said Diana quite casually. Just a tinge of satire edged her voice. “But he's not much of an actor,” she added. “Th* first question he asked upon his arrival was: “Is Lola here?” Don fingered the buttons on his coat. He seemed as confused as a, miscreant school boy. "Now, Diana,” he protested, a deep red staining his cheek hones, “that isn’t fair. It’s a fact that some pretty serious phases have developed down at th* plant. We’re linking Pop’s kidnaping with th' mysterious stockbuying. for one thing.” He recounted in detail the results of Investigations already made. Diana listened with a rapt attention. Lola paid him the compliment of listening with a far-off look in her eyes. “Pop was held to keep him out of the way while some dirty work was being consummated. Teddy and I probably effected his release unwittingly.” A tender note crept Into Don’s voice as he uttered the name of the girl who had saved his life.
