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

MARGARET WILSON ' MAID OF HONOR AT CAPITAL WEDDING

Chapter 71 ' -.' RESPITE The days 'that followed were, on the whole, quiet and happy a respite really, from our summer of hard work, and a brief rest before the serious events which were to follow. Vi settled down to her studies, finding her college work even more difficult this time than before. , "It would not matter so much," she eald one evening, when I urged her to go to bed instead of sitting up late studying, "it wouldn't matter so much if I could stay on and finish the term until June, that is. Then I would not take so many things this time. But as we, don't know yet that I can go on oftr Vn mW.u'lntAi- prams. ' whv. I

want to crowd in everything I can. j

Therell be time enough, she aaaea gloomily, to go to bed early. I won't have lessons then to keep me iip." "I'm going to get a position," I said suddenly. It was a new Idea. Now this may seem strange to the woman who has been brought up to Independence. But I was not. I knew that as long as Jim and Esther had a roof over their heads, that home was mine too and that my presence was always welcome and my cost more than paid by the service I gave. "What would you do?" Vi asked, laying aside her books for the time. "I can't do anything but keep house and do embroidery and darning," I answered rather sadly. "I'll get a position too, when this term ends I don't know what," the girl said. But I'm young and lots of offices will take me in and train me for office work o fsome sort. I can be a telephone operator, or a clerk, or assistant in a dressmaking establishment such places pay small salaries while teaching the trade. I've been asking about it." "At least I'm a proficient housekeeper," I said.

"If you go off to become a housekeeper, then you won't be here with me, and it's no use staying on In the city if I haven't you with me." It did seem a puzzling situation.' "How is our money holding out?" Vi asked, closing a big book. We had allotted a sum for each week, so it would stretch until February and cover all necessary expenses. "Not so well," I answered. "Two weeks we've spent more than we should. You see, I must get. a position, or work of some sort that will bring a little money." VI had an idea, "Let's ask Helen," she said. So it was settled for the evening. Helen was so practical, so full of new ideas, so sure, that the very thought of her cheered us up. Vi gave a tired little sigh, pushing back her gold hair from her forehead. Her cheeks were less pink these days, her blue eyes sometimes had faint shadows traced under them. But she was even prettier so. "Well, it's a funny life," she ohserved. "Here we are as cozy as can be apparently, but we don't know what we're going to do when our money runs out, and J don't know from day to day what is going to happen to Dud, and there's mother miserable because of father, and Laura doesn't sem as happy as she thought, and my last letter from James made me cry." "Never mind." I consoled her. "We'll meet each problem as it turns up. Meantime, there's the dance Saturday. You must look fresh and pretty for that." - I did an extravagant thing, and I da,red not tell Vi until the day of the affair. In spite of our rapidly decreasing capital. I made each of us a new

dress. Helen was an eager helper. "Your dresses of last winter were worn rather badly," she said. "At least they're only second best thi8 season. These things were bargains, weren't they?" She looked over . my materials, taking pleasure in their low price as only a woman can. I had found remnants at very little in some of the shops, and from them we made for VI, a frock of flowered chiffon that combined the two most becomine colors for her bine and rose with a girdle of corn yellow the shade of her hair. For myself. I bought a bronze color satin, and made it draped high on one side, and cut a little low in front and with a train, since they were wearing them that season. "It's the very thing," Helen approved, while I sewed madly all week. "It given you the figure of a girl IS. and its simplicity makes it look rather French. Don't make sleeves. Your arms are quite firm and round now, 1 hanks to the exercises I've made you take just throw a little bronze tulle over your shoulders and you'll do fine." ' "Do von know, you look like a young phi?" she said, oomina: In as we

dressed for the affair that night. "I'm going to marcel your hair sit down vntil I come back with my curling iron." "That's it," she went on, piling my hair up skillfully and pinning it high up on my head. "I've brought along this Spanish comb of my mother's for you. I never need it, with short hair, Enid, you are awfully pretty, really. A little rouge now don't protest, this is an Occasion.' She stood off, looking us over. Bud came in for us, and stood smiling and waiting. "Some one is sure to fall in love with her. Isn't she enchanting?" Helen cried. I turned red with embarrassment To think that anyone should say such things of me poor, neglected Aunt-of-all-work in the Haines family, the hopeless old maid of Henly Falls! Tomorrow A New Friend

Heart Problems f

. -j Dear Mrs. Thompson: I have one child, a sweet daughter twenty years old her last birthday. She is on the road to ruin and disgrace. Her father died before she was born. She Is going with a married man. He has a wife and child. I have said all I know to her and told her that his intentions are only to dishonor her and that he will bring, her to shame and disgrace. What I say to her only causes her to curse and abuse me. This man is a scoundrel and is no eood. His wife knows all about it and she does not seem to care at all. I don't know what to do. I have an old mother, 72 years old, and I can't get her to consent to leave the girl. I don't feel like walking off and leaving my agedmother in such hands, but I have told my mother if she won't consent to leave with me I will leave them both. - Sometimes I break down and cry for a whole day. I am so nervous. It seems as if she had thrown herself away entirely. I think when a young girl goes with a married man she has lost all self respect and she no longer deserves to call me mother. This is the way I feel about it. Sometimes I wish I were a thousand miles away from her. I am thoroughly disgusted at her behavior. I have a brother in New York, with whom I can make my home. I don't feel that I can stand her abuse any longer. This scoundrel has set my daughter bitterly against me. Will you please advise me the right thing to do? I have been under a strain for many months, but have stood by her in the time of trouble. She has lost, all self-respect as well as the respect of other people. BROKEN-HEARTED MOTHER. Your case is certainly pitiful. I think you are wrong, however, in feeling that your daughter is entirely to blame and has forfeited her right to call you mother. Try to share her blame by realizing that something was lacking in her guidance,.. You were not close enough to her as she developed and did not instill into her soul ideals of morality. It is not enough for a woman to make statemenst .about right and wrong. Statements may be too stern unless they are developed in a sympathetic undertaking. I believe it would be a good plan

-b ir- r

vision and greater strength to bear your burden. . Yes, your daughter has thrown herself away. Just as you say. It is a pitiful thing to see her wilfully sacrificing honor and happiness of a lifetime for short-lived pleasures. That which is evil to the core 1b shortlived. One of these days the man will tire of your daughter and she will turn to you crushed and brokenhearted if you are ready to receive her with a forgiving and understanding heart. Follow the example of your brave and loyal little mother and stand by your child through good and evil. . Let me , advise you again to go away for a while. You a well as your mother and daughter need the change.' Perhaps your shattered nerves only excite your daughter to greater hatefulness.
