"The Love Pendulum

By MARION RUBINCAM

THE STRANGE LADY 1 Chapter 9 I have always thought that this new woman had a strange effect on me from the moment I saw her. For when my aunt introduced us. I did not hear her name. And that was very unusual with me, for Aunt Harriet had been very particular about that sort of thing when I was a child. It was no use asking Win Win never heard the name of a person he was presented to.

But Aunt Harriet was calling her Gwen, bo I knew her first name was Gwendolyn. I never liked the name, it seemed rather a silly word, but

that was my prejudice.

I looked at this st ranged. She was

tall and thin, so thin as to almost be awkward. She had a quantity of reddish hair, quite red in fact, which was cut short and bushed about her

ashamed of myself. I knew I would be humiliated by all the sweet pink and white creatures that knew how to - manage a fan and make eyes at

the men." "You made eyes successfully, I should say." My aunt seemed strangely indulgent to this woman I had never seen. "At first! Yes. Ted was an ideal husband in the beginning. I never have been sorry I eloped with him. It's a splendid experience." Win had been looking at her in a fascinated way, as I had also. "That sounds rather ominous as to the ending," he said. The woman laughed again, with a little humorous twist to her mouth. "Perhaps it was a bad ending; perhaps a good one. It depends on the point of view. I divorced him eventually, of course." Just so lightly did

she dismiss the husband ana tne

it followed the very latest silhouette.

It was soft and shimmering, a greenish 6ilver, and from her arms, fastened at ntervals wth emerald bracelets, a long shimmering fringe hung, a fringe that seemed to be alive as it quivered and waved and shone with every slightest motion. She was so magnificent and so darm and sr different that fnr a mv

that her eyes were 6mail ana almost

green, that they squinted, that he-

skin was merely nice, but not lovely: that her hands were almost too large.

I could give no guess as to her age

she might be a raw-boned girl of lt

in a strange costume, she might be some wonderful woman of 40 who did not look her age. "The eloping couple!" she greeted us, extending a ringless band to each of us. "Your aunt has been telling me about it. She was so disappointed not to be able to bring you out as a deb last year. But I've been consol

"She does look like a goddess, with

that classic column as a background," Win said as we walked toward her. "She knows it, that's why she stands . there," I answered. Then I felt ashamed at beine cattish.

"Have you met the newcomer?" Nedda asked as we came up to her. "Yes. Who is she?" Win wanted to know. "That's what we are all asking. She must be someone great to be here. Mrs. Risdon is obviously making her the guest of honor." We all turned toward the group of which this woman was the center. The music was beginning softly, some couples left the various groups and began dancing. "Mrs. Martin has forgiven our hostess for getting ahead of her," Nedda remarked, looking toward the door. "Here she comes; she's decided to accept and bury the hatchet. My word, she's bringing her count, too!

What do you suppose she wants out

of the Risdon's for that honor.'"

Dear Mrs. Thompson: I am a youcs lady of twenty-three. I am worried about my weight I am five feet six inches tall and only weigh 102 pounds.

I have been doctoring for my nerves and have taken different medicines, but I lose instead of gain. I take life easy. I worry some, but not much. Can you tell me what to do to gain strength? I am considered good-looking, but I would prefer being a littli heavier for my height Physicians only say I am nervous. Would that alone keep me thin? TOOTS. To gain flesh, take plenty of olive oil, eat eggs, butter, cereals and fatty

broths, potatoes, peas, beans, corn,

carrots and parsnips, figs, dates, nuts,

bananas, underdone beefsteak anl

roast beef.

Avoid food that will not digest eas

ily, ana be careful to masticate thoroughly what you do eat.

Give up pickles, vinegar and all

acids.

Exercise freely in the open air, and

iase pienty or sleep. Don't fret or worry; this will keep

one inin more than anything else Cultivate an easy-going disposition

if you possibly can. Worry is really a habit and if vmi retnso n vau

mougnis aweil in unpleasant channels

you can ao mucn to overcome yoiu

nervous condition. Do not take life

too easy becase idleness is the begin

ning of a wrong mental state. Work

Is wholesome and good for anyone

BROWN-EYED SUSAN": I believe you should ask the young man to release you from your engagement since the time of marriage seems to be far
