Chapter 40. CHANGED FRIENDS. The sudden, unexpected change in Myra's voice over the phone, combined with Ruth's nervousness, made her feel suddenly unwelcome, suddenly s 'range and awkward with Myra a curious condition to exist now between two girls who had been bosom friends since they could first walk ami play! "When did you get in?" Myra asked. Ruth told her, and added that she had been so fu3y with her aunt that she had not time to look up anyone she knew and felt amused when she considered that the only people she "knew" were her two friends from home. Then Myra's voice came back more cordially in fact, with a sudden high pitched cordiality that , puzzled Ruth more than the former consternation. "Well, darlin" exclaimed the voice, "it's too sweet to hear you again. Do come up and see me right away.; "How can I get there?" Ruth asked, her curiosity getting the better of her nervousness. "Just a minute till I think. You're in the station now, you say. Well, you go up Fifth avenue " The directions came slowly and jerkily, there was quite obviously a consultation between Myra and some
one else as to whether Fifth of Madison was the easiest way to come. Ruth caught the tones of a man's voice could i,t be Tim's? Was Tim with Myra now? Sho did not want to see him vet. She certainly did not want to have to face him for the first time when he and Myra were together. But she could not be sure who it was. The voice was too faint to catch through the phone. Finally, when she mdestood just how she was to reach the little apartment, she started on her way.
But her hands were cold and her face was hot. It must be Tim if he and Myra were engaged. Who else could it be? She must see him, but she did not want the dreaded encounter to take place so immediately. Hew ever, when she entered the tiny apartment, Myra was alone; and this was an immense relief to her visitor. "Darlin" I'm just too glad to see you!" Myra rushed over und embraced Ruth enthusiastically, kissing her on both cheeks. "It's too nice of you to come like this! Of course we I knew you were here. You and mother both wrote and I sent my address to you. But 1 didn't expect you would look me up! Obviouslv Myra was fearfully emharassed. Ruth opened her eyes in surprise. "Whv not?" she asked. Why not. indeed wasn't Myra after all her best and oldest friend? But Myra did no. answer this question; instead, she sat down on the deep cushioned couch, and piled the tea table and its lamp a little closer. Ruth had been proud of her new suit, and thought she made a very good appearance, but she felt her insignificance painfully as she looked at her old friend. Myra was dressed in a long, clinging gown of a soft satin, so draped that every fold caught the light and gleameU Her white neck md arras were bare. Her lovely gold hair was piled high up on her head, pnd her lashes were amazingly ions and black. Ruth learned later that this was done with paint. She was really exquisitely beautiful, highly artificial, very expensive looking. - Ruth sat on the other end of the .i couch, and gradually a little of th-j unexplainable reserve dropped away. As they thawed out, Myra's high keyed manner changed too, and she talked in the way she used to at home except for new phrases and mannerisms which Ruth credited to her new city
educate me but Lord, I've done with school!" To this philosophy there was no answer. Ruth recognized the gulf was widening between them. It began the day after they graduated, when Ruth had the first inkling of her real financial situation, and when she began taking up new studies, having fiinished her old ones. For Myra, education stopped with a diploma. Indeed, she felt virtuous that she had carried it so far as that! They chattered awhile of home. Ruth gave her the latest news of everything. "I'm glad you're alone tonight," she said once. "It's nice to see you and talk with you again. I thought when I phoned that you might have company especially when I arirved and saw your dress." "Oh yes, alone!" Myra echoed vacantly, but caught at the last word "dress." "It's a last year's style. When Emily sailed she gave me all her clothes, except what she needed for the trip across. She went first to Paris to get new things. Most of these are ready to wear out." The door opened out in the hallway, and a voice hailed Myra. Myra's face lighted up eagerly. Tomorrow A New Type.
Heart Problems j Dear Mrs. Thompson I have been married ten years and have no child ren. For the last five years I have
been very unhappy. My husband does not seem to care for me, and as he has been untrue to me, I find that my love for him is dead. He mistreats my people and me. Of late I have found a man whom 1 really care for. He is a bachelor and has plenty of money. He acts as if he cared for me, but does not want to cause trouble between my husband and me. Please advise me what to do, as T am not happy. I am still young and don't want to go any further through iife unhappy. BROKEN-HEARTED. Do not nlaee confidence in the
J bachelor. He may be all right, but
there is a great chance that he enjoys an affair with a married woman, but would not be willing to marry the married woman were she free. If you and your husband have nothing in common and are unhappy together, I do not blame you in the least for seeking a legal separation. Let me warn you. however, that you can not expect anything from your bachelor friend. You will have to be ready to make your own way through life. Be sure before it is too late that you really want freedom. Dear Mrs. Thompson: A year ago next month I married the only woman I ever loved and ever will love, and whom I lost through my own foolishness. After we were married a few months I neglected taking her out except once in a great while, although I always remained home with her, knowing she was my wife. I didn't think it was necessary for her to have the pleasures she had before we were married. When I did take her out, I was not aa particular in dressing and asked her not to be either, as I would like her just the same. We got so used to each other's ways that when we did go out I neglected talking to her, but admired other women and hurt her feelings by telling her about their nice forms, and wished she had one as nice. I also looked and smiled at unknown women, which my wife could not help noticing She never complained to me. although I noticed she was not the same
cheerful girl I - had married. Finally she was taken ill, and she asked me to take her to her mother's home, where she had a nervous breakdown. She is better now, but told me she could not come back to me as she had no more love left for me. She didn't have to explain why, because I certainly did not treat" her as a wife should be treated. Please tell me if tnere is any way I can get my wife to love me as she did before. HEART-BROKEN. Write to your wife and tell her that you realize your mistake. Say that you love her and want her if the time ever comes that she will come back. Ask her if she will let you come to see he as you used to in the days before your marriage. If she
gives you permission, court her as you did then. I would suggest that you send her flowers and little gifts while she is sick so that she wili know you are thinking of her. Do not thrust your attentions upon her too often. See her about once a week so that she will look forward to your coming and not have a chance to gefc tired of your being with her. I would suggest walks and picnics in the country. Getting close to nature brings two people to a better understanding of esach other. Spring weather and moonlight nights are great elements in courting. GARFIELD RECEPTION ENJOYED Pupils of the SA grade of Garfield, and members of the freshmen and

Practical Suggestions Given by the Women Whose Letters Follow
Afton, Tenn. "I want other Buffering women to know what Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound has done for me. During the Change of Life I was in bed for eight months and had two good doctors treating me but they did me no good. A friend advised me to take Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, which laid, and in a short time I felt better. I had all kinds of bad spells, but they all left me. Now when I feel weak and nervous I take the Vegetable Compound and it always does me good. I wish all women would try it during the Change of Life for I know it will do them good. If you think itwill induce some one to try the Vegetable Compound you may publish this letter' Mrs. A. KELLER, Afton, Tenn. Mrs. Mary Lister of Adrian, Mich.,adds her testimony to the value of Lydia E. Pinkham's Vecetahla flomnnnnil
to carry women safely through the Change of Life. She says s "It is with pleasure that I write to you thanking you for what your wonderful medicine has done for me. I was passing through the Change of Life and had a displacement and weakness so that I could not stand on my feet and other annoying symptoms. A friend told me about Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound and the first bottle helped me, so I got more. It cured me and I am now doing my housework. Your medicine is certainly woman's friend and you may use this testimonial as you choose." Mrs. Mary Lister, 608 Frank Street, Adrian, Mich. It is said that middle age is the most trying period in a woman's life, and owing to modern methods of living not one woman in a thousand passes through this perfectly natural change without exp eriencing very annoying symptoms. Those smothering spells, the dreadful hot flashes that send the blood rushing to the head until it seems as though it would burst, and the faint feeling that follows, as if the heart were going to stop, those sinking or dizzy spells are all symptoms of a nervous condition, and indicate the need for a special medicine. Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound is a root and herb medicine especially adapted to act upon the feminine system. It acts in such a manner as to build up the weakened nervous system and enables a Woman to pass this trying period with the least possible annoying symptoms. Women everywhere should remember that most of the commoner ailments of women are not the surgical ones they are not caused by serious displace"Tnents or growths, although the symptoms may be the same; and that is why so many apparently serious ailments readily yield to Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, as it acts as a natural restorative and often prevents serious troubles. Lydia E.

INGROWN TOE NAIL
How to Toughen Skin so Nail Turns Out Itself
Movie Actresses and Their Hair
Thirty miles of subway are being built in Tokio.
Did it ever occur to you that every movie actress you have seen has lovely hair, while the most popular count their curls as their chief beauty? In fact, many are leading ladie3 just because of their attractive looks.. Inquiry among them discloses the fact that they bring out. all the natural beauty of their hair by careful shampooing, not with any soap or makeshift, but with a simple mixture by putting a teaspoonful of canthrox (which they get from any druggist) in a cup of hot water and applying this instead of soap. This full cup of shampoo liquid is enough so it is easy to apply it to all the hair instead of just the top of the head. After its use, the hair dries rapidly with uniform color. Dandruff, excess oil and dirt are dissolved and entirely disappear. The hair is so fluffy that it looks much heavier than it is. its luster and softness are delightful. Advertisement.
A few drops of "Outgro" upon the kin surrounding the ingrowing naii reduces inflammation and pain and so
j toughens the tender, sensitive skin underneath the toe nail, that it can not 1 penetrate the flesh, and the nail turns naurally outward almost over night. "Outgro" is a harmless, antiseptic I -.manufactured for chiropodists. How
ever, anyone can buy from the drug store a tiny bottle containing directions. Advertisement.
