The Girl WKo Had No Chance By MARION RUBINCAM

. Chapter 30. TRIALS. So while Myra in the city tried to draw Tim's affections away from Ruth, Ruth was facing at home an entirely different sort of problem. But meantime, how was Myra succeedingShe laid ber plans with the cunning; that even the dullest woman possesses, with a cunning that even she was not wholly conscious of. "So you're having a tete-a-tete with your nice Tim?" Emily asked, handing the blue gown from her closet. "Darlln', if you think yon will be more alluring in my bine, you axe welcome to it. Personally, I like, yow

best in those nice, Bi triple things your

mother sent you." "Tim's seen me all my life in simple things." Myra said, holding the exquisitely soft blue garment over her

arm. "And it had no effect! Well, if yon think you can be a vampire in my old evening frock, all right," the woman laughed, turned to the dressing table and shaking down her hair. "Shall I use the vibrator?" Myra asked, wishing to be useful. , "Do, that's a dear." Emily answered, relaxing in her chair as Myra began the soothing scalp treatment. She waited until the buzzing instrument had been turned off and put away, then she looked at Myra's reflection in the mirror before her. Myra was I brushing and coiling the masses of ; gorgeous reddish hair, as Emily had taught her months before. "Myra, dear," she said suddenly, '. "isn't your friend Tim in love with that chum of yours at home the girl who writes so often Ruth, isn't it?" Myra said nothing. But Emily saw ' the change of expression it was refleeted to her in, the glass. "Do . you think .you are perfectly

Heart Problems

Dear Mrs. Thompson: I am a girl of 19 and I love a man of 29. I know

that he loves me. He , was married

J once and divorced about three months ; ago. I have been out with him several

. times and he has asked me to marry

him, but I haven't consented. I love

him and I can't give him up. ' Will

' you please advise me? THANK YOU

" When a man is divorced it is evident that he has failed to make one woman

happy. Then the question arises as

to whether he will be able to make a second wife happy. Very often a divorce results from the union of two natures which are very inharmonious. The first marriage fails, while the second may be a success if the choice of mate i3 wiser. Only too often, however, a person is too selfish to be happy in any marriage. : I would advise you to wait a year or - two and let time test your regard for each other. If you care as much at the end of a year as you do now, you will have reason to think that your natures are congenial.

; Dear Mrs. Thompson: Would it be proper for a couple to become engaged ' and the girl not be given an engagement ring on account of hard times. Do you suppose it would disappoint her, as she is of a good and kind disj, position and brought up without k'now- ? ing what it was to have money all the time? Would it be proper for a couple to talk this question over? A READER. If you knew what an engagement rings means to any girl's heart you

would not dream of overlooking the

gift. It is something the girl waits for from the time she is a little girl. ' Hard times are not an excuse for not making the gift. If a man is so poor that he cannot save money to buy a ring, he is certainly too poor to marry. Buy a ring if you have to save money several months in order to get it. The ring can be sinr,.K., but it should represent as far as possible your regard for the girl. If you find it impossible to make the gift as fine as you would like to have it, explain it to her. It is all right to talk over such matters. Do not hurt her, however, by asking her to release you from the obligation of buying the ring. When a man asks such a thing, the girl almost always hides her disappointment and without showing in the least how much she cares says that it is all right and she wilL be glad to do without.

fair?" she went on: "They say there is no honor among thieves or women, but that's not so. Lord knows, I'll encourage any man who wants to fall in love with me, so long as he is amusing. But even I won't tak away another woman's property. If a man belongs to one woman, let her keep him, don't interfere. The poor dear will have a hard enough time holding him without any other woman coming along and aiding in the process of getting him away! "Myra laughed, as she always did at Emily's half-believed cynicism. "If they are engaged, Ruth would tmve told me," she defended herself. "Oh, well, if it is a free field, go to it, darlin and good. luck. You can have the blue dress if he adores you in it."

Myra adjusted the last hair pin, kissed her and went out.

But Tim did not fall in love with Myra that night. The girl had ad

justed the lights as Emily did, opened

a box of candy and settled herself on the couch. Tim sat beside her, his

arm around her part of the time. Part

of the time he walked about the room.

smoking and talking of his office and his hopes of a raise in salary. "But come back and sit here," Myra begged. And Tim came. And he kissed her he had gotten into that habit during the winter. Myra was easy to kiss, she never refused, and she was a sweet little thing. "Too tired to dance tonight," she murmured once in his ear. "Do you like that sort of life?" he asked. "No," she answered. "It's so empty, Tim. I'd like to do something real

I'd like a real home, not this stuffy

bandbox." There was more warmth in Tim's next kiss Myra thought she had found bis real .weakness. She talked still more about a home but beyond his i casual and sentimental caresses, she made no impression. But she did not despair of doing that. There was a great deal of cunning and a great deal of stupidity in her .methods. But he was falling tn love! She guessed that much. And if Ruth did have any sentimental feelings about him, wouldn't it be kinder, she asked herself, to rid her chum of such illusions? She decided to do that So when she wrote, her letter was all of Tim. "He got a raise last week," she said. "I suppose he told you, as he often writes to you. He told me that, and I'm glad he does, because, I know you like him. And I don't want him to

break off his connection with folks at home, because he has gotten so into a new city crowd." This made Ruth open her eyes. "I don't know what's in his mind, he has been acting queer lately. Or if I know Emily says a woman always does I don't think it is time to admit it yet. Mother says no nice girl ever nows a man is in love with her until he tells her so. But Emily says that's nonsense, and I think so too, don't you? But of course he does

EXPECT DAWES (Continued from Pace One) , more satisfactorily, Absence of necessary co-ordination between the public

health service and the bureau of war risk insurance provides the principal difficulty in the administration of the soldier relief. Harding Interested. President Harding has manifested particular interest in a practical solution of the' soldier relief problem. He no doubt first realized the seriousness of the question when he was a member of the penate and studied the flood of complaints which poured into his office, as well as the offices of other fuembere of the senate and the house, from former service men It is accepted sua a foregoing conclusion that when a practical solution of the problem -is arrived at by the Dawes commitee it will have his active support. It is

likewise known that the leaders of ' him and his dependants adequate pay

congress stand ready to cooperate in every way possible to provide a soldier relief agency which will' function effectively! ' The case or a disabled war veteran whose home is in one of the small towns of Wayne county, Indiana, is typical of the condition many former service men have been placed in by the methods now in vogue. This man is married and has three children. Since his discharge from the army two years ago he has been able to earn not more than $500 because of a disability originating in the service. Before enlisting he earned about $6.00 per day. After his discharge his disability was rated at 1,0 per cent, entitling him to compensation of less than $15.00 per month'. Compensation Conccled. Last December, when he was adraited to a government hospital, his compensation was canceled. Later bis

application for vocational training was approved, which would have assured

during the course of his training, but ! this approval ' was mjbsequerrtly revoked on the ground that he ' was mentally unfit to receive, training; There are ; good reasons to believe, however, that the man is normal mentally, but in the event his mind has been effected the question -has been asked if that is a logical reason for the government to refuse adequate compensation for hiir. , and his (our dependents. It is also stated that this man was advised by the war risk bureau ever three months ago to submit additional aflldavits concerning his case so that an adjustment of his compensation might b undertaken. The affldartt? were sent him but.no action has been taken on them. A member of confei ta and the American lesion hve

now interested themselves in uus case. In the meantime, however, the former soldier's wife has been aewHtg and doing house work to feed and clothe herself and children and keep them In school.

kiss me now and then and then he runs home as fast as he can, as though he were afraid of me " There was more, but Ruth did not have to read it. The cold fear was

all through her now, she could hardly think, she could hardly see the letters on the page. Surely this was not Myra surely Myra would not try to take Tim away. Myra must know even though Ruth had not told her. "Are you engaged to Tim?" Myra asked. "I feel badly about this, because if Tim's been in love with you, I won't have him around, feeling sentimental towards me. If you are in love, or engaged, tell me, and I will send him off. Emily says no honorable woman takes another woman's husband or fiance away " What could Ruth answer to that she wrote simply that she and Tim were not engaged and said nothing

more. She could not trust herself to j say anything more. Why did not Tim write her and tell her this and what 1

was happening, anyway? Were they in love was it only Myra and not Tim? Was Tim afraid to tell her or was he merely sentimental because Myra was willing to be? Ruth hated this idea worse than the others her code being a strict one. She did not know what to do, and she was too miserable to think of a way out. Monday SUCCESS.

Non-Advertisers

These are the 1920 figures of the big commercial agencies. They are interesting statistics, yet there is nothing remarkable in the facts disclosed. The concern that advertises recognizes that advertising is the greatest and cheapest selling force we have. And, moreover, the advertising is in itself evidence of business life. It is enthusiasm for quality and service bubbling out into print. AH advertising does not succeed. Sometimes it is badly done. Advertising in the right place, at the right time, backed by the right goods, will invariably win. The foundation of advertising success is picking the right markets and the right medium. The national advertiser who starts on this basis plans intelligently and has the battle Vialf won. The right medium for reaching the largest number of customers, at the lowest cost, in any market, is the daily newspaper.
