A SWEETHEART AT THIRTY The Story of a Woman's Transformation BY MARION RUBINCAM
(Juaptre 101 THE OLD LIFE 1 had many reasons for wanting to go back or rather, for the soing back itself, because I really did not want to go. My chief reason was to give Esther a little longer visit. I though" perhaps if she stayed on a bit more in the city, that Forae of its inspiration might come to her as it had so wonderfully come to me. And I wanted to have Jim alone for a few days, in order to persuade him to let me adopt Violet. I wanted - sincerely to see James, too. And perhaps I felt it would be interesting to go back to my old way of living, so that the contrast between it and my new life would show up the more. Certainly I did not go back, as one of the villagers accused me, to "show off" my city clothes for I really had few good things then. I do not think my motives were anything but unselfish. In any event, the full force of the dreariness of lhat old life came to me as soon as I got off the train. The station Henly Falls had to use was on a branch line, some miles off. My train was an hour late, since a recent enow storm had played havoc with railroad traffic. The snow had been followed by rain, early January twilight had set in altogether it was most depressing. James met me in the closed carriage. I noticed that his old overcoat was fastened together with string, where two buttons were off, and that his eyes looked tired and heavy. "Had to rush to get here on time,"
he said, rolling one of the rugs around ! james laughed and nodded his head.

"That doesn't matter, we'll have a feast tomorrow," I answered cheerfully. "Tell me about everything. How's the little horse? And is the black kitten grown up yet?" Jim's reports were not encouraging. "I don't understand Father." he confided as we neared the village. "Buttercup wouldn't have gotten sick if he'd sent for a 'vet' at the start. But he kept hoping she'd be all right next da and doctoring her himself, and finally he had to lose her or get the veterinary. Then of course it took longer to cure her and cost more. He doesn't have plain common sense about some things." Jim, it appeared, had tried to make special preparations for my coming curious pathetic little attempts to make the place "nice" the sort of thing that makes a woman smile and wish to cry, too. In order to start supper since we were late he had made the coffee and put on potatoes to cook. The coffee, of course, had already boiled to a poisonous state, and the potatoes, simmering slowly, were so many lumps of soggy starch. No wonder they looked badly, the two, if that's how they had lived while Esther was away! While Jim carried my suitcase upstairs, I poured out the coffee and made fresh, and by drawing largely on Esther's canned goods, I managed to get up a digestible, appetizing meal. "It does taste good," Jim said at length, after hs had finished three
helpings of everything. "Neither James
the advantages of being with us after we were married. s; . And eventually he consented. "Thought I don't mind saying she's my favorite," he said. Pondering this, and appreciating the real sacrifice he was making, I went upstairs to my hideously cold, uncomfortable bedroom. It was so damp I dared not undress entirely and finally I went to sleep rolled in a warm bathrobe and a blanket, to keep the clam-
! miness of the sheets away from me.

Heart Problems J
: J Dear Mrs. Thompson: When a young couple gets married, is it customary for the girl to give the man a ring? If so, what kind? ANXIOUS. Some people are married with a double Ting ceremony. The girl gives the man a gold band ring Dear Mrs. Thompson: About two years ago I went with a girl I liked very well. The other day I met her on the streeL I spoke to her and she did not speak. What should I do, write to her and afk what is the matter, or stop her on the street and ask her? - HURT FEELINGS. Since the girl deliberately cut you.
it peems to me the best thing would be to let her have her own way and 1 not try to find the reason she did not fcpeak.
Dear Mrs. Thompson: We are two girl chums, seventeen and sixteen and would like two cowboys' addresses. We would like to correspond with them. JNE AND MARY. I cannot furnish you with the addresses, and if I could I would not.
Such a correspondence would be de-
certainly talk to a doctor and have him prescribe. Dear Mrs. Thompson: I am a young girl of 15 and attend high school, but have to miss so much that I am disgusted. My sister works all the time and buys most of my clothes. My father will not buy them and he scolds when I stay at home. My mother is dead and I am the youngest in the family. I like to go to church, but my father doesn't belong and whenever he does go, he makes fun of the preacher. My church is having a revival but my father won't take me. I haven't any clothes that are fit to go anywhere. What would you advise me. I am very lonely. Would it be all-right to have a boy friend call on Sunday night? L. G. You should continue in high school even if you cannot dress as well as the other girls, for what you need is an education and not fine clothing. It is unfortunate that your father does not believe in church and ridicules the minister, but perhaps he will see his error some day. You are too young to have boy friends to call on you. You should make up your mind to obtain an education.

The coat, she said, had been hers when she was younger "But I find the weight of any fur coat too great for my poor shoulders. So this, which is Alaskan seal, I laid away for Frances' wife and when I knew he wanted to marry. I sent this to be done into present day fashoin. The fur is as fine as when I had it first, and I hope you will take it. I'm sorry it was not ready for you Christmas." I had just time to write her a note of thanks. I not only loved the coat, which was indeed a beauty and most becoming, but I loved the fact that this was the first overture of friendship made by Mrs. Meade. "Sorry you had to wait a whole hour for the train this awful weather," I said to James, as we drove off. "Well, it'll be so late I can't stop for the groceries. I guess we'll have a slim supper," the boy said, slapping the reins over the horse's wet back.
