V 1 MRT. ELIZABETH THOMPSON
pear Mrs. Thompson: I am a girl going on nineteen and am very anxl ous to do something to help in thii great war. I am away from home working and boarding, and so I find it impossible to do much financially. What can a girl who la not a high school graduate, and with little money, do to help her country? I have heard they sometimes need girls in the hospitals to help with the work. I know nothing about nursing, but would be glad if there were something else I could do. Several months ago I registered to go "anywhere in the United States" as a telephone operator, but have never been called, and have given up all hopes of being called. . ANXIOUS. Undoubtedly there is some way in which yp can serve. Go to the Red Cross headquarters and get advice there. They will tell you the best way to serve after they have learned your circumstances and talents. Dear Mrs. Thompson: (1) My eyes, hair and lashes are very dark, but my eyebrows are very light. Kindly give me a good, harmless remedy for darkening them, other than a pencil. (2) My skin is perfect, except there are a few enlarged pores on one side of my face. Is there anything that will close them? OH! THANKS! (1) Apply- vaseline to the brows every night. This will increase the growth, and the thicker the brows, the darker they will appear. Ee careful not ' to spread the brows by rub
bing the vaseline Into the skin above them. (2) The following lotion is recommended for enlarged pores: Boric acid, one dram; distilled witch hazel, four ounces. Apply with a piece of old linen or bit of absorbent cotton. f in ' Dear Mrs. Thompson: I have been keeping company with a girl who is not of age for several months and we have been so happy together that I am sure our love is true and would stand the test of marriage. This girl's home life is not happy and she is not treated right by her father. She is so unhappy that I want to get her away and into' my home. I expect to be called into service soon, although for industrial reasons I have been exempt so far. The girl's father and mother will not consent to her marriage. Can I be married to her without the consent of her parents? BOB. Since the girl is a minor she cannot marry without the consent of her parents. She will have to adjust herself to her home environment until she is of age.
Dear Mrs. Thompson: I have three children who are always getting cut or hurt. Will ycu kindly recommend an antiseptic which I cou!d armly to their wounds? MOTHER. Boric acid powder ' Is a cheap and good antiseptic when marie Into a saturated solution with boiled water. It Is a good eye wash as well as an anMsepMf for burns cr cuts.

STRENGTH FROM STRESS. The first to speak after John had ihclr rights to the book, was Miss Selden. There was a suspicious moisture in her eyes and her voice shook a little. "As far as my share In the book entitles me to speak, I am most anxious that ycu should accept the offer!" the raid. The Ferrols understood her ns though sue had given all her reasons for the decision. They knew how badly she had felt that all their pavings should depend on the success of her book; how she had thought only of their welfare In its success, and hid trembled at the thought of failure because it wcu!d mean disaster to them. Now that she saw a chance for them to retrieve their risk, her first emotion was of gladness for her friends the Ferrols. Edith leaned over and kissed her in wordless appreciation. John looked at Edith for her decision. She shook her head. "I'd rather not say anything, dear, until I know how you feel about the offer," she said. John urged her. , "I am so evenly divided on the matter that what you and Mi3s Selden think would decide me," he said slowly. "It's a hard matter to decide. If I were single or Just married, then 1 should Joyously keep to the high seas, paddling my own canoe. There is storm and danger and uncertainty in Btore; but there is adventure too, and a chance for profitable ports. But it's not myself only I'm venturing " He stole a glance at the children
who were listening wide-eyed, not in
the least understanding what the talk meant. "1 am for putting In at the port for a time," John said finally. "Now, Edith, tell me how you feel about it." She sat down by his side and without a word laid the letter from her brother' before him. in which he asked

for money to. bring his invention to a successful outcome. When John had read the letter he looked up gravely, tut said nothing. "I should have been content whicnever way you decided about the position, John, John," Edith said simply. "Only I wanted you to know one reason why I'm so glad you're going tack to the salary and and safety " Sara Selden rose and with the habitual self-effacement of the gentle, from other peoples' problems, moved quietly to the door. "I suppose we have all agreed, then, to accept Mr. Carter's cffer,"she sa'd "If so, I am going to take the children into the living room for a little celebration romp, if you will excuse us." When Edith and John were alone.
I Edith hastened to say:
"John, dear, I don't want you to feel I am committing you to lending Edgar our money. Only I do want you to look into the matter for yourself before I refuse him his chance. We have learned to risk our all on the best abilities we have. We have not gambled with it we have only ventured legitimately, taken stock in ourselves and aur ability. We have turned our little savings into an active power for us, instead of letting it lie as insurance money. All I want you to think about, John, is that here may be another chance for us to venture out, another exercise for what little courage and strength we have gained in living boldly and positively instead of hiding in a rut. Don't you feel that way?" There Is not a deeper thrill than that which passes from a man to a woman when one feels a sudden glow of admiration, trust and love for the other. John felt this now and answered his wife tenderly: "Yes, I do think so, little woman. We'll see about this invention of Edgar's. BROTHER ARRIVES With John Ferrol's resumption of his place in the Carter Publishing Company, his augmented salary of $50 a week, and his more inspiring duties as head of the sales department, the little household at Arcadia settled into comparative ease. Carter had passed a nice, lavender-tinted check for $560 into John's hands, being the sum it had cost the Ferrols to put out Miss Selden's book. "The Question of Life." Miss Selden herself had gone back to town, to her teaching, but with a comfortable bit of money in the savings bank as the price of her marketed volume; Though none of them put it into words, they all secretly felt the relief one experiences after a hard trip "at sea. Of course, it was stimulating and thrilling and very Interesting; profitable even, but
ch, how good it dees seem to be ta?k on solid earth again! The hum drum but comfortable 'days take on a tint of actual novelty. Safety becomes a poignant delight. Edith rearranged her . household money to meet the new scale. John now made her an allowance of $25 a week. She felt rich at first, especially since the garden was actually
producing its little quota toward the I family assets.! But another letter came ! from her brother. 'Edgar Flowerton,
urging her to And the money somehow for his wonderful water heater, which awoke Edith to financial realities again. ' -. - " "I suppose," said John when she broached the subject confidently this time, for he had given his promise to look into Edgar's invention-n-"that we had better ask him to visit us for a week or so. He'll have to bring his model and plans and things. I'll have Blake and other fellows I know examine it." And he rushed for his morning train. Edith's sister-heart glowed with the anticipation of mothering Ned once more. She hadn't seen the boy for years; and after all, there were just the two of them now. They ought to hang together. Poor little old Ned who used always to be making fire engines out of his mother's pans and egg beaters! And getting scolded or spanked whenever Edit h wasn't able to take the blame or think of a way out! . So she wired Edgar to "Come at once. . Bring everything. We shall help you, darling." And bustled about like a pretty hen making a nest ready for her new chick. Before nijrht a telegram arrived: "Thanks. Wire $50 immediately. Board and traveling expenses. Ned." The message came collect. Edith paid the boy. who departed on his b'cycle, whistling, pfter the irresponsible manners of f-onveyors of news
which does net affect thm. Edith locked afer him as h sniahed his whel dflightedly through the rainpools and wondered how sh should lay immediately hands on ?E0. If she wpt to town herse'f the savings bpi-'k whre her few dollars vvero stored would be closed. She had rver borrowed of her neighbors. Probably nore of the available ones
wovVl have that on hand anyway. Nor would she ask the butcher, as Lillian Elake often did when ?he was short. Her eves strayed to the desk where her husband's wapers and business memoranda made a sort of neat litter. Ei3ht on top whre he had laid it for a moment was the ca-efully countedcut money for the rent and telephone
forgotten in his rush for the train. A ouick search through her purse and handbag netted Fdith enough besides in cash to eke out the $50 Edgar had Vvj-d for. Stifling a howl of protest from her conscience, Fdith tock the little pl'e of bills and hurried to the telegraph office. Not until after he had sent
Fdgar the money ad words of cheer !
and welcome did Fdith foel a sort of drag upon her spirits. Always the
struggle for money! Always seme un-!
expected expense and no funds to meet it! Always the sacrifice. bcfh material and moral, when finally the expense was covered! Must it be forever like this? Was it written in her stars a' ways to be poor and plodding? Was it? She tc!d Jchn about the rent money that evening a-id her fac burned as he mnde no answer. Edith prayed in her heart that seme day her brother would make good would p-ove hwnsplf the boy she believed him to be. a"d recay, ave, and far more, what she had veed John to do for him. Before the end of the week Brother Tdgar arrived. As Edith took him !nto her arms at the station, raining tears of joy upon his natty clothes, she felt all thf confidence of a mother In her son. His past failures were forgotten. Her handsome, brilliait, easymannered ycung idol could not be b failure! Surelv the gods had favored him with genius! He would make them all r'ch rcme day!

By NINA V. SHORT. Protein is necessary to the diet, because is supplies nitrogen needed for building and renewing body tissues. The foods usually classed as rich in protein are: Milk and cheese, eggs, meat, poultry and fish, dried legumes, such as peas, beans, cowpeas, soybeans and peanuts, and almonds and some other nuts. Wheat, oats and some other cereals also furnish considerable amounts of protein. Milk is the best source of protein for children. ' . There Is about one-fourth ounce of protein in each of the following: 1 glass of milk, 1 esg, iy to 2 ounces of meat. 1 ounce of cheese, and 13 ounces of bread. The proportion of protein In cooked and uncooked foods often varies because they take up water during cooking and thus become more bulky and more, dilute. A man at moderate muscular work is believed to need about 3 ounces of protein a day and a family consisting of father, mother and three small children about 12 ounces a day. A diet which Is made up of the usual combination of food materials and which furnishes the body with enough energy usually furnishes enough protein. . . . Nevertheless, because the proteinrich foods are among the most expensive, and because a proper variety of thpm is necessary to health, they must be considered very carefully in planning an economical diet. . It Is possible to plan an attractive and wholesome diet In which one half of the necessary protein is s iaplied by bread an dother cereal foods which are relatively cheap. The more milk, eggs and other pro-, tein-rich feeds are combined with other foods In cooking, the less proteinrich foods are needed for use as separate difhps. Skim milk is not a substitute for whole milk an a food for little chil-
i dren, but it can be po used as a source
of protein in the diet cf adult3. . A quart in cooking or to drink will add as much wholesome protein to the general diet as a quart of whole milk. Providing they are clean and wholesome, sour skim milk and buttermilk may be used instead of sweet. Real economy in the use of protein foods lies net in leaving them out of the diet, but in choosing and combining kinds which will supply the total amount needed as cheaply as circumstances permit.

i nere s dux vne Safe Way to Buy
I keep in close touch with market 3 conditions of food products. I am correctly la
informed as to the cash and food value of practically every article of table and baking use. My knowledge and close acquaintance with baking materials and their quality and money worth passed on to you in my articles, should aid ia the selection of proper foods at proper prices. You have often heard the expression that "water seeks its own level." This same thought might well be applied to merchandise. Inferior merchandise may find a ready demand when first put on the market but its inferiority is soon found out and its sale usually takes a slump. Hence I have come to the conclusion that the biggest seller is the best buy. When some certain brand is given a wide preference over all similar merchandise i: means but one thing wjn' has proved it best. So it follows that if housewives would purchase only merchandise that meets the greatest demand their buying would be far more satisfactory. I have noticed invariably that the demand for a product always verifies the value of a product determined by scientific tests - which proves my contention conclusively. Take baking powder. The biggest selling brand on the market today proved to me by the most critical experiments that it is entitled to the preference it has gained. There are more pounds of Calumet sold than any other brand of baking powder. Usage has proved its superiority my tests pointed to the same fact. The woman who buys Calumet eliminates all possible waste. She profits by the experience of millions of women who after testing many different brands of baking powder find Calumet best. It is safe to buy because overwhelming choice shows the supreme satisfaction it renders the rat majority cf housewives.
I have made investigations and trips through M
many plants that manufacture food articles, and 1 have yet V to and a finer and better equipped, more tip to date, sanitary plant than that of the Calumet Baking Powder Co. Anyone who will visit this plant will readily understand why they should and how they do manufacture baking powder that fills all the requirements. f
