The Girl Wfro Had No Chance By MARION RUBINCAM

and the people from far back in the j Then I'm buying bonds and the per-

country wno had never seen even so small a town as the one Kuth lived in, began to flock to the factory centres. Marketown caught the boom. One day Riley, the real estate man, came into the office, looking bored ad sleepy. Ruth began to take things up with him. "Here are some leases made out for the old John Street houses. Do you want to look them over? And I've three tenants asking for Number 8 Park Avenue, I've let it to the highest bidder. Then " Riley yawned a little. "All right, you fix it up. What are you leasing the Park Avenue place for?" "I asked $40 a month. It used to be $15, but people are coming here fast, and this man was clearly able to afford that " "You're all right!" Mr. Riley opened

his eyes for the first time and began to laugh. I don't know why I ever come to the office, you can run it so much better than I could. Miss O'Neil, do you want to be a partner and take over the wohle thing for half the profits? I'll pay the otnee rent, and go shooting, I'd much rather do that and not worry!" That was one way that Ruth began to realize her career. "This winter I'm going to study law at least all law having a bearing on real estate," she told Langley. The man laughed. "Will you never stop?" "Why stop?" Ruth asked. "I have to make more money, and I want to be a success. Besides," the added with a change of tone, "the roof needs to be repaired, and they want $300 for it and $200 to paint the house, which also is badly needed." "When do you start your law studies?", he asked. "Two evenings a week with old Mr. Johnson." Johnson was the first and oldest lawyer in Marketown, and had the reputation of being "very smart and slick." "You're going to the Club dance Wednesday?" "Yes, with a senseless little boy home from college. He's 22 and has the brains of 18." "Grandmother! And how old are

Langley answered bitterly. "There was a girlr by heaven, if I make a million out of this I'm going to Chicago and make her leave her husband. I'll make her get a divorce, she'll marry. me fast '

TREATING THE ELBOWS The elbows are always a problem J unless the arms are quite chubby. In that case the elbows are apt to be round and soft and even dimpled and decidedly an ornament to the arm itself. But alas for the woman who has thin arms, or a dry skin! The elbows are sure to be sharp, wrinkled, and so apt to be gray looking even when they have been thoroughly scrubbed with soap and water. The only way to Keep such elbows in condition is to keep them well rubbed with oil. Cold cream cleansing cream, I meant or the ordinary sort that you buy in any store will help a little, but it will get into the pores where the dirt has grimed in and. by cleaning the skin more thoroughly than soap and water, it will at least make the elbows pink rather than gray. But to fatten them and make them round and smooth and pretty, other measures are necessary. The Honey Almond lotion, the formula for which is often given here, is very good for this, for it is a bleaching, fattening lotion readily absorbed by the skin. And a vanishing cream is excellent. In fact, the only time I think a vanishing cream is good, is for this purpose. If any cream or lotion is used on the elbows before going out, it is a good idea to powder them. Other-

Would it be proper for me to marry him? SISSY. You are too young to marry at this time. If the man is really good, thoughtful and worth while he can keep you cheerful and show you wholepome pleasures until you are at least three years older. His parents, who you say ?-re kind to you, should look at tl.-e matter in the same way. It would be perfectly proper for them to invite you to their home frequently, and this they could do to help you. Talk the matter of marriage over quite frankly with the boy's mother.
