RUTH'S PROPHECY COMES TRUE It was odd what comfort Edith derived from things the little dressmaker said. Ruth Alison was only twentyfour, Edith Ferrol was ten years older. Yet It was Ruth who talked, and Edith who listened to her homely philosophy. "It's because I've always worked for a living," Ruth laughed, when Edith one day asked her how she came to have thought out so many satisfying "answers to things." "The girl who marries young has her lifework mapped out for her. She takes things for granted. But the girl who struggles almost from her childhood with big responsibilities finds herself perplexed. She wonders why things happen as they do why she has nothing but work and loneliness and others have so much that is golden By and by she digs out reasons. And she comforts herself with the belief that all things have their 'compensations and Bome day the light will come into her life, too, and the struggles will be forgotten." "I've had struggles, too," said Edith. "Marriage doesn't mean pure golden happiness." "Of course not," said Edith briskly, "but it brings you more quickly to the things in life that are worth while. When you are married you at least have a definite aim. You have some one to do for, to build for, to improve your character for. And perhaps you have children. Children alone," and Ruth lifted her eyes from her work, and looked off into space, as she had a way of doing when very earnest, "can make a woman's life worth living. They are absolutely the greatest possibilities! They're sheer raw material, to do with as you like; aren't they? It's only when mothers have finished molding and educating and developing their children that they look round for some cause to work for; something where their experience and understanding can be used to help the world along." After little Miss Alison had put her scissors and work apron and all the tools of her sewing trade away in her satchel and taken her leave for the day. Edith Ferrol sat a long time thinking. She began fully to realize how much she wanted to do for people and what a blessed opportunity she now had to do it. For the Heater Company was buzzing along merrily, and every few weeks John come home waving a slip of lavender-tinted paper before her eyes, which he explained was a "dividend check." Ned Flowerton was one of the people Edith wanted to do something for. Ned had been away. Edith asked no questions beyond the fact that he was going to a ranch in Texas for a few weeks where he could live in the open and "let out a yowl once in a while if he felt like it." Edith knew he did feel like it. For while Fay Summers had been about as "light" a sweetheart as could be imagined, still Ned had cared for her in his fashion. While his fashion was not the deep, tempestuous one-love-in-a-Hfetime sort (and preci-1 ous few loves are), Ned was far from a philanderer and his vanity, if not his soberest feelings, has been badly hurt by Fay. He was coming back soon, and Edith had spent many joyous days selecting furnishings for his room, insisting that he must live with them for a while at least. "I shall use the plain striped chintz," 6he decided suddenly. "I'll chdose blue and cream men always like blue. It'll go perfectly with the fumed oak furniture. Floral designs would be too feminine. And I'll get two or three substantial fat chairs. And there must be nothing in the room that will tip over easily. I 'shall leave plenty of space, wall space and floor space. Men hate clutter " It occurred to Edith all of a sudden that these Ideas for her brother had j actually come from little Ruth Allison. They had talked of Ned, and Ruth had ' HOME-MADE COUGH SYRUP Cured Husband and Child, Wife And Mother State. Mrs. A. Jennings, , 1734 Armitage avenue, Chicago, 111., writes: "I heard of Mentho-Laxene about two years ago, and since then would not be without it. My husband had been coughing for about four years, summer and winter, and- now he is cured of it, and for my child I think there is nothing better in the world for a cold, for it helps at oncer" - The best cough, cold and catarrh medicine ever found Is the essence Mentho-Laxene. Directions with a 2H ounce bottle concentrated, tell how to make at home a full pint of delicious, curative medicine. Adv. i

the armistice terms reached therm A parade through the city was staged. The U. S. boys were dressed in their new winter garb. made suggestions about the furnishings from time to time. A big thought abruptly entered Edith's mind. "I snatched Fay Summers away from him,'; she said to herself, her eyes wide with the inspiration of her thought. "I'll bring a REAL girl into his life! I owe it to him, dear old boy!" So Ruth Allison's prophecy, made a while back, that Edith would find her richest happiness in doing things for people she loved rather than "ornamenting her own mind," was put to the proof. (To be continued.) MIAMI BACK TO PRE-WAR STUDIES OXFORD, O., Dec. SO When Miami university reopens on January 3, all traces of government regulation, and the military atmosphere which pervaded the Institution during the first term, will have vanished. That the demobilization of the Students' Army Training Corps will affect the enrollment of the coming term Is conceded by the university authorities, but the decrease in numbers will not be serious. Several important additions will be made to fie regular curriculum, with particular emphasis upon the study of governmental affairs. Greater stress will also be placed on the study of state and municipal government, and comparative government. Also, at the request of the government, the girls of the institution will be offered a. three-months' course in preparation for becoming trained nurses. There will be no military training in Miami for the remainder of this year. Commenting upon the work of Miami's Students' Army Training Corps, President Hughes said that it had been most satisfactory In all respects, both to the military and to the college officials. The members," he said, "gave their best efforts to both." SIMPLICITY MARKS DEBUTANTE'S GOWN Est. 1890

"Am on my way to Germany with the Third Division army of occupation," writes Cnarlea G. Bowen to his parents, Mr. and Mrs. Will Bowen of Lynn. Bowen was recommended by a French general on the morning following July 14, for a croix de guerre, but had no one to verify the deed for which he was recommended as his comrades were killed In the skirmish. ' "We are now on the heels of the Germans." he writes, "and stopped here in Luxemburg long enough for them to clear out. Luzemburg Is a very pretty country, and the natives are treating us royally. They speak the German language and use German money, because for fifty years Germany has required this. They all seem glad that the war has ended as it has. "Everything is very expensive here. Soap is very scarce and the bread is black, and it appears that the Germans were very hard up for food. A pair of shoes costs 40 marks, which Is about $8, and a suit of clothes is anywhere from 650 to 700 marks near $175. I have at present French francs. Luxemburg marks, German marks and American dollars. I prefer the latter. "As we came through Alsace and Lorraine the people had the villages decorated with holly and flags floating: above all the Stars and Stripes. "We have been on all fronts except with the British at the far north," he explained. "Have been through four of the biggest battles of the war. At the ending we were on the Argonne front: we put the Germans back at Verdun: in September we were in the St. Mihiel salient; held back the Germans at Chateau Thierry. In other words, I have been through Hell from start to finish. Almost got picked off several times, but somehow managed to be lucky. "The Verdun ground was the hardest to fight over as every point had to be fought out over and over again. They rushed the Third Division In in time to save the day at St Mihlel's: also at Verdun. The Boche would meet us of the good old Third on every front. Prisoners would question how many Third Divisions there were In the American army. Every place they came we would be hurried up against the Prussian guards about the time they would be rushed in. They stacked their best divisions against us at the Marne and were confident that they would reach Paris In five days. "The part we are taking now Is the most pleasant going through these

Indiana Men Will Be Disbanded at Taylor CAMP TAYLOR, Ky., Dec. 30 Hoosiers are among the members of the Thirty-ninth Division now returning from overseas who will come here to be mustered out of the service. Word was received yesterday that a detachment of nine officers and 287 men of the One Hundred and Four teenth Ammunition Train of this division' Will come from Hoboken. Last spring thousands of Indiana and Kn tucky selects were transferred from Camp Taylor to Camp Beauregard, where they were Injected into the Thirty-ninth Division. Capt. David W. McNabb of Indianapolis was here today visiting his brother, Capt. C. R. McNabb, assistant, camp adjutant. He is executive officer at Dallas, Tex., and is on a leave of absence.

Believe me, it's a pretty sight I am in the Sixth Brigade headquarters. It is composed of the 36th and 38th Infantry regiments. The Fifth Brigade is composed of the 4th and 7th regiments; and the Third Brigade Is composed of 16th, 10th and 18th field artillery- We have the Sixth regiment of engineers, division headquarters, the supply trains and the signal battalion; and various other units. You can no doubt imagine that it is a fine sight when we all march forward. People certainly show their appreciation of us. "When we came into Lorraine, the girls all ran out and kissed us." From Rennich, Luxemburg, Bowen wrote: "This place Is on the Moselle river, Just across from Germany proper, but we are not allowed to cross until after Dec. 1. The old Luxemburg lady with whom I am housing treats me like a mother."
