The Girl Who Had No Chance By MARION RUBINCAM
ANOTHER HEART. Chapter 60. "Now tell me all about why you are going away, and where, and what you're to do," Ruth said to Langley Williams as they started off on the Ions Sunday afternoon tramp that had become almost a habit with them. Langley outlined his new work briefly. He was going on to Ohio, where two large factories in one city had sent for him to go over their plants and "re-organize." There were methods of eliminating costs, of adding new machines, of putting certain types of labor on certain types of work, that made production 'easier, quicker and cheaper, and profits a little higher. "I can see how the efficiency prin
ciple work? out at home," Ruth said after a short silence. "It's a pleasure to watch mother work, for instance. She never makes a false motion or an unnecessary step. She does an enormous amount of housework with very little effort. When father is given any manual work he does it clumsily and badly, though he is the most intelligent member of the family." "It often wxrks out that way. I think you have a good combination of what, in my work, I call both mental and physical intelligence. Keep up the thing you are doing now. Get your playgrounds in the town and put through your present ideas for clubs and concerts, and I think in the end you'll find organizing social work your career." "That needs training, too, which I can't afford." "Some social workers are trained. I think you have a talent for it, owl can overcome the lack of technical training by reading, and by practising your ideas here in Marketown. By the way, I've gotten the factory here to promise you $100 for the work you did in getting -up the playground and gymnasium. It's not much, but busi
ness is bad just now; otherwise I would have gotten more for you." "I'm grateful for that." Ruth answered. "It's needed at home." "And you can't put it aside toward this business training course you want?" Ruth shook her head. They followed a road that lead up a steep hill, and went through a spare bare bit of woods. On the other side was a broad flat rock, sheltered from the wind, with the sun pouring full upon it. In this warm place they sat down awhile to talk. Miles or winter landscape spread out before them; tho collection of houses that made up Marketown, the river, the railway and beyond, flat meadows that went into a gray mist of distance. "In a way your work supplements mine. I wish you were coming along to investigate home conditions anions the factory people. I could get you a well paid position doing that." "I can't leave mother not with father as ill as he is." There was a little silence again, which the girl broke. "I'll miss you, and I'll miss our long walks." "I'll miss you. You can believe that. I've never found quite your combination of courage and ambition and hardship. You simply look very seriously a the job to be done and do it. I didn't know there was a type of fdrl like you." Ruth looked at him curiously. He had neved spoken quite like this. "I don't know why I haven't fallen in love with you," he went on. but his tone was bo matter of fact that there was no sentiiner' in it at all. "I admire you and like you more than any girl I've ever known. And yet the thing I've liked best is your cwn freedom from sentimentality." "I'm free from sentiment, as you call it, because I'm in love with another man," Ruth said simply. "I knqw that. I knew it the afternoon you came to my office and askd me to take you on a ton-mile walk before dinner." "The the man isn't in love with me. That is, he was. but he Mked another girl better and married her". "Does he live here?" "No." Ruth gave him no further clue, and
he asked for none. And after a time Langley drifted into talk of his own romance. "She wasn't a bit like you.' She was tiny. She hadn't an idea beyond the next dance or a new dress, yet she was clever enough to give an impression of knowing a lot. She was the essence of everything feminine and frivolous. And I adored her. I've knocked around a lot and met all sorts of men and women, but this one weii, she seemed to fit my idea then of everything a woman should be." Ruth waited, wondering about the rest of the story, hating to ask. "She threw me over four years ago
to marry a man with a lot of money, and the last I heard she was living in
a huge house in Chicago, with four
motors and a staff of servants and the
finest pearl necklace in the state. Well, God bless her, she wanted that sort of life and she's got it. I used to hope fhe'd be miserable. I've thought that all women who married for money ought to be. But she isn't. For money is about all she wants money, and all the clothes and the admiration and the luxury it will buy for her." 'Did you hate her a lot? You should have." "I hated her for a week, maybe. No, I don't hate her. I can't. I'm still in love with her at least. I can't be in love with anyone else. For the image of her as I used to know her when she was in love with me, that is keeps coming up between me any any other woman and I " "I know," Ruth said gently. "It isn't a bit logical but it happens that way. I'm rather glad you are as foolish and illogical as I am. I know men much liner than than he is but 1 can't like any of them as well." Monday Alone.

Heart Problems
STEAMING THE FACE. Every week I receive quite a few letters from readers who want to know whether there is really any virtue in steaming the complexion. They write that some people say steaming the face causes coarse rores and want to know whether this is true or not, since the steaming process has been so widely used in connection with beauty treatment. Face steaming can be of benefit oi harm to the skin, depending entirely upon how it is done. If the skin is very sallow, very oily, coarse pored or full of blackheads, face steaming, properly done can be of great benefit. The best way to do it is to remember this advice: Do not hold the face over a basin of steaming water with a towel thrown over the head to hold in the
steam. I know this is a time-honored method, but it isn't a good one. It is quite true that it opens the pores, but it opens them too effectually and therein lies the trouble. The best way is to take an old soft turkish towel, wring this out of very hot water, as hot as you can stand
it, and hold this over the face. When it cools wring it out of the water again and hold it over the face, and continue doing this until the skin is red and glowing. This may take anywhere from two to five or ten minutes, depending upon the condition of your skin. Steaming in itself is not a face treatment it is only an introduction to a face treatment. Its only value is to open wide the tiny pores of the skin which act like an infinite multitude of little mouths, and which close up upon the dust and grime of the atmosphere. Once you have opened these pores, you can go on with whatever treatment you find most effective. You can use the Blackhead Powder to dry up the hard oil that forms a blackhead, or you can use a cleansing cream. R. S. The formula for my Blackhead Powder is as follows: Cornstarch or wheat Hour, 2 ounces. Borax, 1 once. Almond meal, 1 ounce. This is to be mixed and used in place of soap. E. W. The camphor will do it, as it dries out some of the tissue undei the skin. T. N. T. Cocoa butter should never be used on the face as it may induce a growth of hair. Circles around the eyes usually come from internal troubles, often from a sluggish liver. Curley. Vaseline or castor oil feed the roots of the lashes, which increases
; their thickness. A beautiful way to arrange the hair, when it is so abundant. is the coronet braid which is
wound entirely around the head, bring ing it as near the front and sides as you find becoming to you. Mary McW. A good lotion for hands inclined to chap is made from glycerine and rose water, equal parts

All Inquiries addressed to Mrs. Forbes in care of the "Beauty Chats" department will be answered in these columns !n their turn. This requires considerable time, however, owing to the great number received. So. if a personal or quicker reply Is desired, a stamped and self -addressed envelope must be enclosed with the question The Editor
Dear Mrs. Thompson: My husband is always making fun of my people, especially my mother, and doesn't appreciate what 6he does for us. I have three small children and they are always anxious for her to come. He seems to think what his people say is just right and they don't do anything for us. We lived In a large town until a few months ago, when we moved to a small town where my husband said he could make more money, but he doesn't make as much now and we don't have things as convenient as we did in the large town. I want to move back there, as we go there to church and it would be much
handier. People say we made a mistake by moving here. How can I persuade him to move back? THANK YOU. Sometimes it takes infinite tact for a woman to keep harmony between her husband and mother. In the tirst place, I think you should notice every little thing that your husband's people do for you and show appreciation. You may think they do nothiug, but if you are observant, you will notice that they do things which please your husband at least. Your kindly feeling towards his people will make him more charitable toward your mother. Love your mother with your whole heart and try by your devotion to make up for your husband's indifference. At the same time, however, you must be very careful not to talk "mother" to your husband or to point out to him bow much she does for you. It is a great mistake to run the risk of antagonizing. You are not in a happy frame of mind. It seems to me that you would
enjoy life more if you picked out the pleasant things and did not place so much importance on the unpleasant. A small town lacks many of the attractions of a large city, but on the other hand it has its advantages. When you are annoyed by lack of conveniences, try to content yourself with the thought that it is better for your children to have country air than to
be couped up in a large city. Your husband may be making less money than he made in the large city, but I think you ought to be thankful that he has work. Probably you would find that the firm where he worked in the city has laid off a number of men and has cut the pay of those remaining. Conditions have changed all over
and will continue to change until there is further re-adjustment. Do not try to make your husband go back to the city until you- have reason to think he can get a position when he does go back. To urge and tease will defeat your end. Drop the subject of moving for a while and when you open it again use as much tact as you know how.

What Service Do You Expect?
You hear a great deal said about service, but it is difficult oft times to interpret the exact meaning the term is supposed to convey when used by a merchant in expressing his sense of responsibility to the customer. The manufacturer is not often in direct contact with the ultimate consumer of his product; therefore, he is not privileged to look after all the details connected with the sale of his goods, while he desires above all else that the customer be given such service as he is entitled to, realizing that the proper service is an important factor in establishing confidence in his line or. in other words, "good will." A few manufacturers are so fortunate that they can supervise the handling of their product from factory to the ultimate consumer through their own organization. The Starr Piano Company is selling to the user the line of musical instruments it manufactures and is, therefore, concerned in making every instrument sold give perfect satisfaction, both from the standpoint of manufacturer and retailer. This responsibility carries with it any service which in justice to the company should be called upon to perform. When you buy a Starr-made musical instrument you are taking no risk.
