The Girl Who Had No Chance By MARION RUBINCAM

Chapter 85. 1 THE VISIT. Ruth wished again and again that she did not have to go to the dinner at Myra's. But she had promised. Myra told her in a special call that morning that the dinner would be ;i little after 6 o'clock. "But come early so we can talk. Tim won't be in until nearly 6, and I want you to see the baby while he's awake. He's in bed before six, you know, and then I get dinner." "I'll try, but I have an appointment," Ruth was able to promise only that much. Nevertheless, by cutting out the last appointment on her schedule and by hurrying the man who drove her car, she managed to present herself at thu proper address by a quarter of thv hour. But the traffic was heavy; Rutr. was sure every car in New York was hurrying up Park avenue. When she reached the address, she looked about her doubtfully. It seemed very far uptown. It was dusk and the streets, seemed a little dirty and the houses very shabby. "Where are we?" she asked hei chauffeur. "Harlem," he answered indifferently. "It's all like this, only some is worse. Shall I wait. Miss?" "No, you will need dinner. But come back for me at ten or half past, and ring Mrs. Turner's bell. She stumbled over the word's. To be sure when she had answered Myra's letters, she had always addressed them to "Mrs. Timothy Turner," but somehow it sounded odd to pronounce if, eo, out loud. She turned into the small hallway, hunting the proper bell. Finally she found it and pushed it. Nothing happened. There was a clicking at the door, but no one behind it; she could

steps glad for some unknown reason, that she was looking so pretty. Myra stood at an open door, a bij checked a proa covering her dress. "If I'm not glad to see you!" she exclaimed, and put her arms around Ruth, to give her a big hug and a kiss. "Think how long It has been since I have seen you," she went on. "Come into this room and take off your coat but wait, I must see you first. How grand you look! Why Ruthie. that's a wonderful suit! Who made it?" She had the coat off by this time, and looked at the label inside. "Well!" she exclaimed, her voice holding a new note again. "You must be making a pile. He doesn't sell a thing under $150, and this was $200 if it was a cent. And that hat." Woman-like she put it on, looking at herself. It made her look very pretty, as gray always did. "But not with this apron," she ex

claimed, whisking off the undesired I gingham garment. "That's better.'

Doesnt it look well? I must masts one like it." While Bhe chattered, examining the hat, Ruth looked about her. She was slowly pulling off the soft gray suede gloves she wore.

SHOULDER EXERCISES. A great deal has been written about j

the danger of a woman over developing her shoulders. Square shoulders are not supposed to be beautiful in a woman. This is one of the few remnants of 19th century prejudice that we have carried over into the 20th century. The more feminine sloping shoulder may be better looking than the square shoulder, but there are certain types of figure to which only the square shoulder is becoming, so a

woman need not refrain from develop

ing her shoulders because she fears to

At a larding, where there was a light, she paused a moment to look at herself. She had no blue suit with its quantities of gray squirrel fur, and on her head a small velvet hat trimmed with the same fur. Her cheeks, which had been pale, had been "touched'' by Marie with a little rouse. "Just a flush, tnadame," that little maid had exclaimed.

There are two excellent, exercises,' both very easy to do at home. One is to stand upright with the arms i stretched out in front of you and the ! hands doubled into fist?. Draw the i

hands back to the shoulders, tensing the muscles as though you were pulling a great weight. Fancy yourself out rowing a heavy boat against a strong current, that is the sort of exercise you are doing and it is one of the best for developing thf shoulders and giving a beautiful shape to the upper part of the back. The next exercise is somewhat like this only the hands are held out at the sides and drawn into the shoulders, so that when the elbow is bent the fists rest on top of the shoulders. Once

for general adaptability. A high j school graduate should be able to pass the examination for cadet, it is said. The examination of cadet engineer candidates will consume four and a half days, the additional day and a half being devoted to an examination in mechanics, electricity and steam engineering as ordinarily given in colleges. It is stated that there is an unusually large number of vacancies to be filled at the Coast Guard academy. Successful candidates will report to the academy about four weeks after the close of the examination.

dent of Indiana university, has inferred that he does not approv such legislation. He sent to each Indiana congressman a booklet, written by President Finley, of the University of Illinois, in which he expresses opposition to a policy which federalizes education and takes away the initiative of the several states. Mr. Hines' letter reads: "We are much in favor of the Towner-Sterling bill creating a department of education, with a secretary in the president's cabinet. We are absolutely opposed to submerging education in the proposed public welfare department. We have no objection

is very nice to me, dul i inins i snan ' never learn to love him as he will

want me to. The reason is that l have met a boy who is 24 years old. My parents and friends like him because be is a perfect gentleman everywhere. He told my aunt one day that, if it were not for the other boy h would take me places. 1 would like to have you tell rrv? how I could have this boy call on me. Would you ask him to come to your home? I like this boy very much, and would onlv have the other for a friend. THANK YOU. . The young man does not care very much for you or he would not stay away simply because you see another friend occasionally. Perhaps your aunt tan help you by telling him that you are not engaged and that you do not intend to go with one young man exclusively. I would not advise you to invite him to call unless he shows more interest in you to you directly. Dear Mrs. Thompson: My wife is poing to leave me for no other reason than that she doesn't like to live in this town and doesn't love me. We used to livp in another state, bu' I don't want to go back as I cannot, pet my job back. I have a fairly good job here. We have three children. She says she is going to take two of the children, but I want to keep the two oldest, and let her take the baby, who is two years old. Has she any right to take any of the children against my wish. She was born and raised in this town, an.l

she is doing the right thins;. When I threaten to sue her for divorce on the grounds of desertion, she says she doetn't care if I do or not. H. A. R. I can not give you any definite legal advice. The only satisfactory way will be for you to consult a lawyer. Your wife can not take th"1 children away from you all the time unless there is something in the case which ou have not mentioned. You may be

ana thoughtfully live teem over. I find myself, at seventy-one, frequently drifting' back a quarter of a century, when 1 see myself in the little dreg store I owned at Bolivar, Mo., making and selling a vegetable compound to rny friends and customers what was then known only as Dr. Lewis' Medicine for Stomach, Liver nnd Bowel Complaints. Tor many years while I was perfecting my formula I stndied and investigated the laxatives and cathartics on the market and became convinced that their main fault was not that they did not act on tie bowels, Lat that their action was too violent and drastic, and upset the system of the riser; vhicuwas duo to tho fact that they were not thorough enough ia their action, some simply acting on tne tipper or small Intestines, while others would act only on tho lower or lar!a intestines, and that they almost invariably produced s habit requiring augmented doses. I believed that a preparation to produce the best effect mutt first tone the liver, then acton the stomach and entire alimentary system. If this was accomplished, the medicine would produce a mild, but thorough elimination of the waste without the usual sickening sensations, and make the user feel better at once. After experimenting with hundreds of different compounds, I at last perfected the formula that is now known as Harare's Remedy, which I truly believe goes further

and does more than any laxative on tb market today. The thousands of letters from users have convinced me I was right, and that the nser of Nature's Bsmesy as a familv medicine, even though ho may have nsed "it for twenty-fivo years, never has to increase the dose. My knowledge of medicine and the results of its use in my own family and among my friends, before I ever offered it for sale, caused me to have great faith in Nature's Remedy from the very first. And now as I find myself Bearing the age when I must bow to the inevitable and go to another life, my greatest pleasure is to

tit each day and rosd the letters that each mail brings from people as old or older than I, who tell cf having vised Nature's Remedy for ten, fifteen and twenty year?, and how they and their children and grandchildren have been benefitted by it. It Is censojieg tbonght, my friends, for a man at my age to feel that aside from h:s own success, one has done something for his fellow man. My greatest satisfaction, my greatest happiness today, is tho knowledge that tonight more than oca million people will take a Nature's Rsnetfy (NE Tablet) and will be better, healthier, happier people for it. I hope you will be one of them. A. H. LEWIS MEDICINE CO.,

Every woman will want to choose from these modish new styles H ere are Voiles, Swisses and Organdies In assembling these interesting groups of moderatelypriced Wash Frocks we have been most careful to offer for selection only those modes which are assured of an allsummer vogue. You can wear them at any hour of the day and feel appropriately dressed. There is a profusion of flower patterns among the fabrics employed in these timely frocks. And polkadots, cross-bars and stripes are well represented, too. And when there is such a diversity in styles as characterize this display, choosing becomes, indeed, a pleasure. Below we will endeavor to describe a number of the choice presentations.

Smart Modes of Gingham They were designed for morning wear, but they are quite stylish enough to be worn even in the afternoon. The gingham is very neatly patterned and of exceptionally fine quality.

Frocks of Cool, Crisp Linen They keep their nice, fresh look for such a long time, and are offered in such a gratifying variety of summery colorings. Most popular are those made in jacket effects.

The Voile and Organdie Frocks Are Veritable Gardens of Posies

Posies in all sizes and colorings are general favorites, but among the fabrics from which these frocks are so youthfully developed you will note that patterns include, flowers of almost all kinds. Collars, cuffs and sashes of plain toned materials oftimes add piquant touches, and in other frocks trimmings of self-fabric ruffles easily capture one's fancy.
