A SWEETHEART AT THIRTY The Story of a Woman's Transformation BY MARION RUBINCAM

OUR NEW FRIEND Chapter 34 y Gradually, as the winter came upon ' us, Violet and I grew to be a part of the vast whirling life of the city. Our corner was a little aside from the active places. The stream of the city flowed to the east of us, and we were a little quiet pool where occasionally Fome part of the current swept in and away again In the evenings the streets were quiet, except for the children who played until dark. And with the cold weather, even this stopped at the din ner hour, and the place was nearly as still as our own village at home. Yet we Wd only to walk a few blocks to be in the district of queer little restaurants, of shops that sold smocks and batiked silks, where the girls wore bobbed hair and the men soft : collars and ties and where they talked a lancuaee and philosophy strange to t both of us. i Gradually we came to know a great imany of these some had studios in the house around us. And there was one but I am going ahead of my f story. "I would never recognize U3," Vi said one evening. She was standing before our one mirror, trying to see I the full negth of her figure in the J glass. ! had finished a new dress for I her that very day. And this was really a dress. It was silk in the softest shade of blue, with I a round baby-like neck and short sleeves that showed Vi'a pretty elbows. I embroidered it around the podges with a cobwebby design. It made the girl surprisingly lovely it J brought out her really wonderful complexion, it emphasized the gold of her i hair and made her blue eyes bluer f still. I always thought her beautiful but I never realized how lovely she I was until I saw her in the simple. I stylish, clinging frock. "How are you going to make your t new dress?" she asked. I was sitting with a remnant of brown silk in my hand I had bought both in a bargain sale before. i "Like this," I began to describe a I way. "It's plain, but Esther would not I like It. She would say it was too I youthful." I held the material around t me. 5 "Say what's too youthful?" We t turned to greet our guest, a young I woman whose acquaintance we had ? made some days before. This was f Helen Barlow, who kept a tiny restaurI ant in the Village and who' designed I smocks and dresses as well. Vi and I met her when we went off on a lestive .party one evening. She served a delicious meal for 73 tents, it was that ,which lured us first into her little place. Then "we found she roomed with our landlady and lived on the floor below. "The way I'm going to make my dress," I said, and told her the plan of it. "I wish you would let me dress you, ' she paid. "I missed my vocation in "DiamondjDyes" No Risk Then! Don't Spoil or Streak Material in Dyes that Fade or Run. iain package of "Diamond Dyes ' contains directions so simple that any woman can diamond-dye worn, shabby, skirts, waists, dresses, coats, gloves, stockings, sweaters, draperies, everything, whether wool, silk, linen, cotton or mixed goods.

Lately she has been using cold cream and rubbing her scalp and doing things like that but I know she's ashamed to admit it "Old? Why. how old are you?" Hel en dropped down on the floor she pretended she liked sitting there better than on chairs. "Thirty-five," I answered. "Thirty-five and you call that old!" Helen's astonishment was genuine enough. "Yes, it seems old to me. And look at me!" "Do you know how old I am?" In her sudden excitement she jumped up, and stood facing me. "Twenty-five," I hazarded. I looked at her more carefully than ever before it was hard to guess her age. For she wore her hair short, after the Greenwich Village fashion, and she dressed in short straight skirts and loose, colorful smocks. Her gray eyes always hid a laugh in them, her eyebrows were very well marked and dark, there were lines around her mouth, but it was a firm mouth, and her whole face was very intelligent, She was not pretty, but she was interestmg. "I'm 33," she answered. "I'm two years younger than you. I'll admit I look younger but that's because I've kept myslef young. No woman if older than she admit". Will you let me take you in hand?" I wag glad to do it. "First of all, give that sober brown im

We'll put a lot of orange with it anyway, to relieve it. - Now you are the type that should - be dressed smartly, in rather a sophisticated fashion but not too exaggerated. First " she began making a list using pencils and paper from Vi's books on the table "A tailored suit of blue velour, and a rich brown fox scarf and muff,- and a brown velvet toque. A black satin dress, draped, rather short, and silk stockings and high heeled black satin slippers. A black velvet housegown, clinging, with fur bands on it. A mauve chiffon " "But the money " "It won't cost as much as you think. A corset have you ever worn a corset?" "Not a good one," I confessed weakly. And so Helen entered as another factor in the process of rejuvenation. (Tomorrow A Discouragement) Heart Problems Dear Mrs. Thompson: Would like advice about a pension for the blind.
