"The Love Pendulum" By MARION RUBINCAM
ACQUAINTANCE. Synopsis of . Preceding Chapters. Constance Bennett has spent all ber life at fashionable boarding schools and smart summer resorts and even before she Is 20' she becomes very tired of the empty life of wealthy so-, ciety. Her millionaire aunt with whom she lives when she is in New York, intends to bring: her out in society, but a week before her formal introduction. 6he is taken sick with
pneumonia. At the end of the Ion? sickness, she finds herself in the little sanatarium of the Wellesvivlle, a tiny town in middle New York. The quietness of the Tillage and the unworldly sympathy of the people so delight her that Rhe takes a cottage in the town for the summer. Here shemeets Winthrop Taylor, son of an elderly lady who has been so kind to her while she was sick. .. Chapter 7. "I am awfully glad to meet you at last." Winthrop said, putting his hat down on the table, as I had suggested. He gave his head a little shake, to toss his hair back from his forehead. It was a gesture that was lo mean great deal to me. later. This time I noticed it as a curiously attractive characteristic. "Mother has talked so' much about you," he went on. "She promised to bring you around sometime, but they seemed to keep you tied up at Dr. Engel's. . Hello, mother!"
He turned from mo as, Mrs. Taylor came into the room and greeted her
with a hearty kiss. I liked that about him he seemed so sincere in his
pleasure at seeing his mother. Of course, the men I had known were

courtesy and the natural courtesy that
comes from kindiness.' "Everything ready but the whipped eream," Mrs. Tayor announced. "And Win makes such good whipped cream I think I will let him do it. His strong arms can beat it up in no time " Chattering about the details of the cooking, she led us back to the kitchen. And Winthrop " whipped the cream for the dessert while we put the dishes on the table. .. , . It was one of the pleasantest dinners I ever remember. It was such a delight to eat things I had helped to cook myself, and I ' enjoyed every bit of it. "She is really such a fine little housewife,". Mrs. Taylor praised me. "She's so quick at earning! And she can be a first-rate cook. Cooks are born, not made." "Now mother, you say that every meal." Winthrop protested. "What are you doing, trying to make our hostess into a good housekeeper like yourself?" "I am no longer a housekeeper," Mrs. Taylor answered, net tones anything but cheerful. "I am only a sort of boarder in my own house, now you have made me get a woman to do ail my work." ' , . She turned around to me for sympathy, s. "He did. I never complained, I like to work. But he said we had so much money I had to have a housekeepef. He said it looked badly. I tell him it doesn't look nearly as badly, as the way my house does sometimes when
she doesn't dust. Besides, I like to cook for ny son." "Never mind," her son consoled her. "I haven't yet forbidden you to darn,
and I have two pairs of socks that are all holes!" "Oh, I want to learn to darn, too," I announced. "At school they taught us embroidery, but I never learned sewing or darning or such useful things. I am really very ignorant. Winthrop stared at me. .
Why should you learn to sew or
darn when you don't have to?"
"Oh, I want to., I know so little." He laughed suddenly. "You know more than I. I don't know how to run a car. Mother never would buy one, she didn't like them but since you have been taking her out in yours, she is beginning to like them aren't you, mother of mine?" He reached over and took her hand and patted it, an impulsive friendly act for which I nearly adored him. His mother drew her hand away.
"I don t mind them so much. It
isn't that. But you are so hot-headed
Win. If you had a car you would run it into every ditch and tree along the road." Winthrop smiled at me". "You see what a bad opinion my respected parent has of me! She won't even let me learn to run a car she
is so sure I will smash the car I practice on." ' "Practice on mine!" I said promptly. "I will show you how to run.it your mother isn't afraid of my machine." "Will you show me?" He was as pleased as a boy. Mrs. Taylor smiled. When she smiled some of the grayness left her face ,and she became very warm, and
friendly and delightful. "That's an excuse," she said. "He wants you to show him so he can come around and see you." . "Do I need an indirect excuse to come and see you, Constance?" . he asked. He called me sq casually and naturally by my first name that I did not think any thing about it I was very glad he had used my name instead of the very formal "Miss Bennett," so glad, somehow, that I might have blushed a little at it for I blushed very easily except that it
seemed the only name he could pos
sibly use.
And long after they had left, and I had gone to bed, to lie there and read awhile, I found myself thinking more and more about him. He had called me Constance as though ' he had
known me always! Yet we only met that night. But I was so glad about it, it was only part of the simplicity
of the life here. He liked me, nc wanted to know me and why should
he fence about as we did in the city and wait until we had met the prbpev number of times to be considered
friends?
Were we going to be friends, this
young man and I, I wondered. Tomorrow The Village Life.

The problem of keeping the hands soft and white is always a complicated one, because in the winter they dry
and chap, and in the summer they become brown and sunburned. Most of
us hate wearing gloves always In the summer, and many of us find that in the winter not even thick gloves are a sufficient protection. To make it still worse, it is hard to rub oil on the hands during the , day because of the dust the oily skin will collect, and it is impossible to use oil
at night,' without staining the bedclothes, unless one is willing to sleep with gloves on. Altogether the inconveniences are so many that most women, without, meaning to do it, neglect their hands' shamefully. Obviously the best thing is to find some lotion that is not greasy. Personally, I have found the Honey Almond Lotion best for this because it bleaches the skin and keeps it white, and is not sticky nor greasy. It is a bit difficult to make, but not impossibly so. Here is my formula: HONEY-ALMOND LOTION Quince seed 1-3 ounce Cold water 1 pint Steep this over night for 12 hours,
strain without pressure: then take
one ounce of sweet almonds, blanch
these in hot water, and while they
are stil warm and wet, pound them fine.

The minuteness of these spores or seeds of organisms, which, are sometimes of the animal kingdom and sometimes of the vegetable kingdom, is something marvelous. . , , Imagine a microscope capable of magnifying an object, two thousand times not being competent to make

The poisonous or disease-causing bacteria are our enemies and must be destroyed .or avoided. . They are frequently brought to us in dust Last fall I was riding with a nose and throat specialist, and a cloud of dust, blown by the winds of coming winter, enveloped us. I shut my eyes and held my breath, and so did he. And
when the cloud was passed, he said: "That dust is money for me." He meant that some who breathed the dust would be given so-called colds by the cold-causing bacteria it contained, and ne would be employed to try to remove with medicines distress proceeding from public imcleanliness.

than wild animals or arsenic or other j mineral poisons. Dust injures the. eyes as well as the breathing organs,! and it may even pentrate the ear andj cause trouble of a serious nature. I
Again, dust gets into our food and the havoc wrought against health can not be computed. - All diarrhoeal diseases, from typhoid fever down, are caused by disease bacteria, and frequently: these
bacteria are introduced into our bod
ies with dust
In view of these facts, we should
cease using articles of food which are exposed to dust Formerly numerous
food articles were handled in bulk by grocerymen; and the longer they were exposed to the air in bulk, the dirtier
they became.
Fly specks (fly excrement) covered
such exposed articles, and what dis
ease germs might not be in fly excrement and upon the feet, of these nasty insects? The writer was passing a grocery in Indianapolis recently
and observed boxes of fresh straw
berries exposed for sale. They were
slightly gray with dust and swarms
of flies were present Flies Carry Disease.
On the sidewalk, within six feet of
the berries, some poor diseased mortal, perhaps a consumptive, had spat The sputum was circled with flies, and a moment's observation discovered that they flew back and forth not only between the berries and the sputum, but also between the berries-and the gutter filth and street manure, yet people purchased" those nasty berries and ate them raw. The druggist nearby was asked if any diarrhoea existed in his neighborhood and he immediately replied
"A good deal. I put up several diarrhoea prescriptions today and sold several bottles of patent diarrhoea mixtures." Some of the people in that locality will have typhoid fever in the fall and perhaps some will die. Surely, it is plain that all foods should be protected from dust and flies. But why do we have dust? Is it because we are wise. The cost of abating dust would not be one-half as much as having it. The "Impractical health Cranks" would quickly abolish dust if the self called practicals would permit.
EXPECT HEW TRAINING SHIPS AT CHICAGO
(By Associated Press) U. S. NAVAL TRAINING STATION. GREAT LAKES, 111.. July 19. Thousands of middle western and western boys who trained for naval ; service here during the war without ever seeing a naval vessel may come ' back next year and find training ships and submarine chasers riding at anchor at the high bluffs of Lake Michigan. Work began this month on a 1,500,000 harbor which congress recently authorized for training station. When completed late next summer, the basin will provide room for six or
seven ships drawing twenty feet to ride at anchor. A breakwater of riprap and concrete is being built to enclose an area approximately a half mile long and a quarter mile wide, with an entrance to the southeast The enclosed harbor, besides affording an anchorage on this unprotected shore for training ships and chasers, will be used as a take-off basin for seaplanes of the aviation mechanics' school and for small boat drill. Owing to the lack of protection from the open lake the seaplanes are now unable to fly in rough weather. .- .

Made from Cleopatra's famous oils Palmolive is blended from palm and olive oils, the beautifieri discovered in ancient Egypt. They were the basis of Cleopatra's elaborate toilet and the foundation of her lifelong beauty. Whatever the embelKshmer.ts of her elaborate toilet, however much she called upon cosmetics to increase her beauty, thorough cleansing was the ceremony never neglected, as the ruins of her sumptuous bath are mute testimony.
Stormy days may keep some girls at home, but not one with a fresh, smooth skin which rain and wind only make the prettier. Such a natural complexion is beautiful at all times, by flattering evening light or noonday glare. It is the greatest charm a woman can possess and the one charm every woman can achieve. How to beautify your skin Women who think that bleaches, lotions and mysterious applications will give them a beautiful complexion are sadly in the wrong. These are more apt to increase bad conditions. They clog the tiny pores and keep the minute cells from doing their important work. And it is the resulting sluggishness, their dangerous inactivity, which makes skins dull and sallow and produce blackheads and ugly blemishes. . Wake your skin up, put the cells and glands to work and revive the sluggish circulation. Wash cold creams, cosmetics and dirt away with simple soap and water and give nature a chance to do its workBe careful what soap you choose In beginning this cosmetic cleansing the choice of soap is most important. You mustn't use'a harsh soap, drying and irritating, but one that is mild and balmy.
In the mild, soothing, creamy lather of Palmolive you find an ideal cleanser. It is the facial soap which satisfies millions of exacting users. It is lotion-like in its action. It soothes while it cleanses. It is a real complexion beautifier. Pay only 10 cents The luxury of Palmolive is a gift of modern science which ancient beauties never enjoyed. Their luxurious oils are blended in a wonderful combination which produces the finest facial soap the world has ever known. Science while perfecting quality, has also reduced the price, with the help of millions of users who keep the Palmolive factories working night and day. The great demand also allows economy in the purchase of the costly ingredients in vast volume. Result, the practical 10-cent price which puts Palmolive within the reach of all. You can afford to use Palmolive for every toilet purpose. Enjoy the luxury of bathing with it. Use it on the wash stand to keep your hands smooth. Palmolive is a luxury offered at a "utility price.
