"The Love Pendulum" By MARION RUBINCAM

GOSSIP. Chapter 72. Aunt Harriet considered. Evidently she had not expected to tell me all this about my mother. It was the first time I had ever been able to find out anything definite at all, and I did not want to let the opportunity slip. v "Please go on," I begged. "After all, there Isn't so much to tell." Aunt Harriet continued, playing with a handsome black pearl ring she wore. "It was evident your father and mother were unsuited to each other from the start. She was not born to the sort of life she had to lead with him. and she made him look ridiculous. How?" "She hated to spend money for things. She dismissed servants, she wanted to do her own work. She hated to spend money on clothes, having always made her own. She thought it wicked to have more than three courses at a dinner your father used to give dinners where there were 15 and 20." "How awful," I murmured. My aunt smiled. "Of course in those days things were done differently. But your mother would not try to conform. She believed her own narrow, economical way the best. The odd part was that she looked so dainty and pretty, and when the was dressed up in the sort of clothes, fit for her station, she was one of the prettiest women in the city. She could have made him her slave, if she had tried, for your father has always been susceptible to beauty in a woman. "I suggested taking her abroad. Europe was the great place to 'finish off' one's education. She was seasick, she hated the strange new cities, she disliked the people she met. Poor girl! I suppose we should have been sorry and helped her more than we did. We were both a little impatient. "She disapproved of so many things. Perhaps, from a strict standpoint she was right. But we all have to make allowances. Our own code of honor cannot be applied to everyone else. Thafs where she was narrow. One evening a very distinguished woman was present at a reception in her

house your father's house, too, remember. The woman said something which offended your mother's scruples, and she insulted her, there, with all the room looking on. Everyone your father cared about was present. "He was furious. They quarreled and she went back home. But they made it up. outwardly at least, and you were born six months later. You lived with her in the country for two and a half years, and she died then. I went to the funeral. Your father had gone to Europe, he came back as soon as he could. I took you away with me and you've been under my care ever since until you ran oft with Winthrop." I asked for more details. Strangely enough, T could not entirely sympathize with my mother, when I knew all my aunt could tell. Yet I longed more than ever to have known her. "So when your father heard of you deliberately coming down here, he naturally thought it was your mother in you, her odd instinct for getting away from people, for burying herself in the country. I suppose you do inherit your recluse instincts." We talked of other things later. She told me what she had heard of Win. which was little enough. "I saw to it that our set dropped him,' she said, "He runs around with quite another group not very nice people, rather fast, I think. Gwen won't drop him. of course." So it seemed that things were the same with him! If only he would see the shallowness of those people. If only he could be made to see the -r-orth-while things of life! I felt all the old longing more strongly than ever. Colin came again for two weeks and left. I had kept away from the village people while Aunt Harriet was with me, knowing she would not like them. When Colin came, thev feemed to avoid me possibly feeling hurt because they had not been invited to meet my aunt. So I was alone all the time now, except for Mother Taylor and Ella's occasional visits. A sudden and sickening revelation came to me one day when May was calling, the first, visit from her for weeks. The baby was on the lawn and I called her for her nap. "Connie,' I called, and as she did not come. "Connie Anderson! You little witch!" I ran down and picked her up

to carry her to the house. May surveyed us with uplifted eyebrows. "Connie Anderson, you call her?" "Yes, that's her name." "But, of course, she's your child." "Xo. She's the daughter of of a friend of mine. She was named after me." May's mouth curled a little. "You surely don't expect us all to believe that, when she looks so much like you. We thought at least you would give her your own name that is, Winthrop's name." I stared, wondering what she was driving at. "What do you mean?" I asked.

though in a flash I guessed guessed i

irom the horrible expression in her eyes. Tomorrow More Gossip.

CHINESE WOMEN WANT ABOLITION OF MONEY ENGAGEMENT SYSTEM

(By Associated Press) TAIWAN, Formosa, Oct. 3. The world movement for woman's emancipation has struck Formosa at a time when the high cost of wives is being felt severely. The women, who are mostly of the Chinese race, are demanding the abolition of the system of engagement money which is paid by their suitors when the marriage contract is made, declaring that the payment of money to their parents is an insult to their dignity and position as free-born women. A young woman of education, a graduate from a girls' school, commands as much as 1,500 to 2,000 yen ($750 to $1,000) ' as engagement money and such a sum is a very desirable addition to the famUy fortune these days. But these girls refuse to consider themselves livestock and decline marriage without personal consent and with a bridegroom of decent appearance and sufficient education. Have No Choice Most Formosan marriages are arranged on the basis of the engagement money and the bride-to-be has little to say about the matter. There are young women who insist that the trouble with engagement money is that it is too high and desirable suitors are often kept away because they cannot pay the price demanded. There is much in this argument which appeals to Formosan women, and a certain number of the less modern women are demanding that engagement money be radically reduced to a point where matrimony will be easier of accomplishment for them. The Formosans are polygamists. But the modern tendency is to remain satisfied with only one wife. And it is said that if engagement money does not decrease soon the habit of plural marriages will decrease too, because very few men can afford to purchase more than one wife at present high prices.

Dear Mrs. Thompson: Please advise how to reduce enlarged pores in the face and stop them spreading? T. J. The following lotion is recommended for enlarged pores: Boric acid, one dram; distilled witch hazel, four ounces. Apply with a piece of old linen or a bit of absorbent cotton. The face should be thorougb.lv cleansed every night before retiring so that secretions will not fill the pores and cause them to enlarge. Verv often powder is left on the face during the night. The result is coarse skin and enlarged pores.

She indicated that. nowadays men are satisfied to purchase these things for purposes of shaving, brushing their teeth, smoking and nursing a cold. "We middle-aged women loathe the picture of a chicken," Mrs. Fredericks remarked, explaining that old-time posters showed women in evening gowns operating washing machines. She appealed for honest advertising.
