ear Mrs. Thompson: I became en- You have made yourself think that gaged to a young man before he vent you are in lore with the young man, to France. I didn't want to become ! 'when In reality you are not. During engaged when he asked me to marry his absence you built an ideal around him, but he begged me to and said- he ! him and you are in love with that

would be able to leave with a much ideaL

better feeling. We had been friends

for a long time and in all our acquaintance 1 had never thought I could love him.

When I became engaged I thought

He is acting in a most ungentleman-

ly way. If I were you I would let hfcn go and apear to be Indifferent to an explanation. Probably the rumor about the Y. W. girl is true and he is

that I was doing my bit. It seemed . afraid to tell you. No matter what such a shame to let a dear friend go hi3 reason for changing his mind In

across, feeling that he had no one back home who loved him. We corresponded for a while and then he -stopped writing. I worried terribly and wrote to Washington to see If he had been killed, but there was no report of It. The strange thing is that after he went away I found I loved Dim more than 1 had ever known. Now he has returned. He did not tell me that he was coming and he has not been to see me since he got back. I have heard from friends that he fell in love with a Y. W. girl when he was (Over there. He talks about her all the time. When we meet on the street he speaks to me, but does not act as If we were engaged. I am heartbroken and want to win

back his love. Shall I write him a j this column. Ask your family physl

regard to you. he should talk the mat

ter over with you. The fact that he does not proves that he is a coward. Forget him and look for a more satisfactory friend. . Dear Mrs. Thompson: In using the electric needle on the face to remove superfluous hair, is there any danger of harming the skin later on? Where can one have it done? Will it cost very much? BLUB EYES. The electric needle is not dangerous. Sometimes a white scar is left when a mole 1b removed, but then the needle is used again to remove the scar. If the scab resulting from the pricking is allowed to fall off naturally there is no danger of scaring.

I can give no recommendations in

letter? Please advise me how I can make him explain his actions. HEART-BROKEN. ,

HOUSEHOLD HINTS By Mrs. Morton

80 UPS. Soup Making Soups are divided into two general classes; soups. with stock and soups without stock. ; Soups with stock have for their f basis beef, veal, mutton, fish, poultry 5. or game, alone or in classified combl- ; nation. V They are classified, bouillon, brown ; and white stock, consomme and broths. Every home where meat is used should be provided with a soup kettle, Into which should go the extra 5 bones and pieces, as well as left overs of gravies, and the water in which vegetables are cooked. ? The lower part of the shank, called j the shin cut from either fore or hind quarter, is one of the best cuts to use I for soup. I It is well to cook a small piece of j lean meat with this to add to the I flavor. This may afterward be re- ; moved from tha soup, shedded, sea's soned well with grated onion, salt. t pepper and celery salt, and molded into a bowl with enough of the soup stock to moisten it. Cover and press r down with a weight. When thorJ oughly cooled, this may be sliced t down and served as Jellied meat. Brown Soup Stock Six pounds shin $ of beef, three quarts cold water, onehalf teaspoon peppercorns (whole

I peppers, six cloves, one-half bay leaf, three sprigs parsley, one-half cup each j of carrot, turnip, onion, and celery cut : In dice, one tablespoon salt. Wipe the !t beef and cut the lean meat in inch S cubes. This exposes a larger amount of the surface and the Juices are more easily drawn out. , Sear a part of the T meat in the marrow fat from the bone and put with the rest Into the soup kettle, add cold water and let stand S half an hour. Browning the meat i gives the stock a better color. Allowii lng the meat to stand in cold water 4 draws out the juices, which give flavor l: to the soup.

THE MAKING OF A FAMOUS MEDICINE

How Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound Is Prepared. For Woman's Use.

A visit to the laboratory where this uecessful remedy is made impresses ven the casual looker-on with the reliability, accuracy, skill and cleanliness which attends the making of this great medicine for woman 'sills. Over 350,000 pounds of various herbs are used anually and all have to be fathered at the season of the year when their natural juices and medicinal substances are at their best. The most successful solvents are used to extract the medicinal properties from these herbs. Every utensil and tank that comes in contact with the medicine is sterilized and as a final precaution in cleanliness the medicine is pasteurized and sealed in sterile bottles. It is the wonderful combination of roots and herbs, together with the skill and care used in its preparation which has made this famous medicine so successful in the treatment of female ills. The letters from women who have been restored to health by the use of Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound which we are continually publishing attest to its virtue.

special purpose, the soup may be

strained, but usually it is as well to leave the vegetables in. With this soup stock as a basis the flavor may be varied as much as desired. DISCOVERIES. Aprons for Rough Work Someone has discovered how to make an apron out of burlap bags. They are fine for all kinds of rough work, such as house cleaning and on wash days. Pick out close woven burlay, wash and boil; put lye In the water you boil them in so as to get the letters out, as there are sometimes printed letters on. When nice and clean make a big skirt apron, and have the belt of cotton cloth. Have it meet at the back so as to cover dress; put a pocket on and a bib and a nice hem at the bottom. They save your good aprons and dresses and are easily washed.

Miss Minnie J. Nlelson.

The fact that woman has entered the

political field does not indicate that

politics and machine-run organizations

are to be abolished and everything run

clean and above board. No indeed

The case of Miss Minnie Nlelson in North Dakota shows what women

must battle while getting their politi

cal footing.

Miss Nlelson, chairman of the pro

gram committee of the General Feder

ation of Women s Clubs, and by virtue

of Buch position chief in the making of program arrangements for the next convention of the general federation to be held at Ashville, N. C, May 27 to 30, this year, finds time to dabble

in North Dakota politics,, with the result that she has become the storm

center of an Intensely interesting fight that is being waged over control of the state public Bchool system. Miss Nlelson was, last November, elected superintendent of schools of the state. During the recent session of the state legislature the faction opposed to Miss Nlelson was in control and a law has been passed which creates a board of three members which would take over many of the duties that are now centered in the office of the elected state superintendent. Miss Nlelson's friends are fighting this legislative step, which they charge Is an infringment upon her office, and they have referred the laws In question to the people for a vote.

The result of the referendum of thej law is that the people themselves will !

VOie on we quesuuu ui wueuier or uui

they will take from the office duties ndw centered there. Miss Nlelson is an active worker for the extension of women's club work to the rural districts. She was for several years a county superintendent of schools before being elected to the state position.

ILLINOIS ON

BLACK LIST.

Illinois is one of the ten "black

states so far as the passage of laws

to sho'rten the working day of women

Is concerned. . The legislature at

Springfield is limping along several

laps behind the rest of the world.

Everywhere a tendency to a shorter workday is manifest. Employers

in umcago ana eisewnere in the state

have been establishing the eight hour

day in advance of the lawmakers:

other states have been writing it into

their statue books; In Paris organized

labor is seeking to have the peace con

gress write an international recoxni

tion of the eight hour day into the peace settlement; the subject is one

which will be considered at the labor

conrerence President Wilson expects to call soon after his return. But at Springfield the legislators, as conservative as ever, are still wondering

whether to pass a law reducing the legal hours of employment for women. At present the Illinois law permits a ten hour working day and a seventyty hour y working week for women. This is ' the longest week anywhere permitted by any state -which has

placed regulations upon hours.

(Indiana)

rpHE Standard Oil - Company (Indiana) always has recognized the men and women who use its products as the ultimate judges of the success of the Company's earnest effort to render a superior service. The Stapdard Oil Company (Indiana) conducts its business with but one goal as an objective that every individual purchaser of Standard Oil products shall experience complete satisfaction with every purchase.

When the Company reaches this Coal, then, and only then, will the Board of Directors, acting as Trustees for the 4623 stockholders, feel that their ideals have been realized.

Neither the Company, nor the patrons, can be satisfied unless the product is uniformly up to the highest standard of excellence unless it can be bought without inconvenience unless the price charged represents true value. To bring about this degree of satisfaction, unerring accuracy in manufacture, complete distribution, and efliciency in keeping down operating costs are essential. Working without precedent, but with high ideals, integrity of purpose, and a keen sense of its obligation as a public servant, the Company believes it has succeeded. The judgment of the consuming public has been for the most part favorable to the Company, as is shown by the ever increasing volume of business which the Standard Oil Company of Indiana is enjoying. The best friends of the Standard Oil Company of Indiana are those customers who have used its goods, and its service, for the longest time. Standard Oil Company (Indiana) 910 So.

the Pennies

Bigger

When James Buchanan was President and tall beaver hats were in vogue; when gentlemen wore broad cravats and ladies wore hoop skirts the pennies they tossed to children were as big as quarters. But the cart-wheel coppers your grandfather got for keeping his lace collar clean were not as big in buying power as the pennies of today.

A penny then might buy a pastry, or ten of them take one to the Fair, but your great-aunt and great-uncle couldn't have gone to a movie at any price. Your great-gran'ther may have driven the fastest horse in the country and paid a tidy sum for it. But the price of a stable of thoroughbreds would not have bought him a fliver. Sixty years ago the ladies could go shopping for dry goods and buy silks that would make you green with envy, linens that were linens and broadcloths that beggar description. But what their favorite store did not have they usually got along without. You can pick up your daily newspaper and in fifteen minutes you can know what the different shops are offering in fabrics, patterns, varieties and qualities that greatgrandmother never dreamed could begathered together under any conditions. Times have changed, and so have merchandise and business methods. One of the influences that has helped to bring

about so much of change, that has helped to multiply opportunities and increased the spending size of our pennies is advertising. Every merchant, every manufacturer knows that advertising materially reduces selling costs by increasing the demand for and the distribution of the products of hundreds of thousands of mills. Indeed many of the things we count today as necessities or simple luxuries could not be made and sold at their reasonable prices except as advertising has created a broad market for them, making millions of sales at little prices and little profits. And so you owe very much to advertising. You owe much to the people of yesterday who have read and been influenced by past advertising and so have made possible the economies and varieties and wide distribution of merchandise that you enjoy. . You owe present advertising a thorough reading. A greater familiarity with advertising, with advertisers and advertised merchandise makes continually for the increasing size of your pennies.
