The Girl Who Had No Chance By MARION RUBINCAM
Chapter 33. RUTH'S BURDEN. Wtiile Tim, then, was walking the city streets torn between his conscience and his new-found affection for Myra, and while Myra was serenely running abou; me ion buying warm weather clothes and thinking triumphantly of Tim while all this was going on, Ruth was following her deadly, daily, unvarying schedule. Ruth was thinner. The winter had been hard on her. Serious though she was, she still liked fun and variety sufficiently to miss it during the long winter. Hut she was even prettier than before. Her thin cheeks made her eyes seem larger and her pallor made their blue a little more intense. Her schedule was always the same. She got up at 5, the loud buzz of the alarm clock a rectnt purchase bringing her to wakefulness with a shock that sent an ache through every part of her head. She slid into a bathrobe, ran down the cellar and fixed the furnace so the house might be less chilly when her lodgers wakened She shut up the kitchen range, so it would be hot enough for breakfast when she came down again. Then she went up to her room and dressed. But there was a wee little luxury that came here. Mrs. Belding was awakened in her room by the alarm, and while Ruth was down the cellar fe always got up and lighted the oil hunter in the girl's ioem. So when Ruth came back, chilled and still
sleepy, it was to find a room already j warming and cheered bv the glowing j Art-. I Then there was the breakfast, forj the two hungrv men and herself and '
Mr?. Beldin?. The teachers came down to prepare thci'- own meal about the tine Ruth was finishing hers, and the manager's wife invariably appeared late, so thar FuHi had to keep thins ho for her atid table pet Then thero was the furnace the a. -he?, the kitchen stovo, the piles of dirty dishes. There were be.? to make and rooms to sweep, mark-Mi ns to he done, a hasty lunch to stop for, special cieaninjr. visits to shops for things about the house that would get broken. There was a heavy laundry to be done
on day. a heavy ircning the next.
Rnth, at the end of it all, was nearly a physical wreck. Only her sound young constitution carried her through more work and worry than any girl of 19 should be given. "At least Father will be back. And we can read together. But I wish I would hear from Tim or Myra," she said every day. And Tim's letter when it came was
vague, evasive, casual. He signed it i poor health. However, your cold water
"hastily yours," without even the little three-word line, "I love you," that had gone in every letter before. What could it mean? , And why didn't Myra write? She was flirting with Tim but was Tim really falling in love with her? Or was it some other girl? Finally, feeling she could stad it no more, she decided to write and ask. Tomorrow Questions.

Heart Problems
1 - k?2,
Dear Mrs. Thompson: I am a mother in much distress. I want to do tbe right thing and still not be too bard on my daughter. There is a young man about twentysix years of age who is no good, as he only lies around and lives on his widowed mother's income. She runs a hotel. Just because he is a good dancer and shows his nice ways to
my daughter 6he will insist upon going with him since Bhe thinks she is of age to do as she pleases. She will meet him at other places besides her home, while before she always had all her friends call at her home. Now sho is going all the time and we don't know where she is or with whom.
It breaks my heart to have her think
as she behaves she doesnt care what people think about her reputation, BROKEN-HEARTED MOTHER. Since your daughter is determined, I believe you should let her have her own way. Now that she is of age you really have no other alternative. Tell her that you will not oppose her any further and that you are willing she should entertain the young man in her home, just as she does her other friends. Tell her that you would
rather have him call for her at her

while I am only trying to bring her up respectably and for her own good. It is not because-she has no friends, for she had a very aear friend whom I know she lost because she goes with this other man. I am afraid she will lose her other friends, who are nice boys, if they know of it Can you advise me what to do? My daughter claims he treats her like a gentleman and as long as he is so she does not see why she cannot go with him. She says that as long
meet him. Perhaps the young man really loves your daughter and if he is given a chance will prove worthy of her. I do not blame you in the least for your attitude, but since you are helpless, you might just as well make the best of your defeat. Try to win back your daughter's confidence by looking at
matters from her point of view. Canvasback ducks get all their food by diving.

"Probably he's too busy," Mrs. Belding murmured vaguely. Personally f-he did not bflieve it: she guessed rather shrewdly what was going on. but she wanted to make the girl feel better. .
