"The Love Pendulum" By MARION RUBINCAM

. WIN'S MESSAGE Chapter 84 Never before tad I done so much or accomplished so little, as during that mad, feverish, wasteful winter. Ordinarily I had a great deal of poise that 'winter I had almost none, none. At first I went about because my aunt wanted me to, then I began wanting hourly distraction. At first I felt it my duty to please my aunt and my father, since they were giving me a very generous income. To be sure, it was my own money, some from my mother, and there was no one to inherit from either my aunt or my father but myself. Yet I felt dependent and bound to please for that reasonthough all the time the money meant little to me. Part of it was reaction from the narrowness of the little town, too. "They were bo self-satisfied, so smug, so sure their way was the only right one," I told Colin one day. And Colin nodded, slowly puffing away at his cigarette. So I plunged into every frivolity the city offered and the city offered many distractions. No one ever mentioned Win to me. Everyone seemed to have forgotten him but me. Aunt

Harriet now and then referred to my "late unfortunate affair,' 'and father once remarked that he had seen Win on the street From mother Taylor, who now wrote me faithfully, I heard only that Win was still in the apartment we used to have together that he was "doing very well," and that he wrote her about once in two months. In spite of her devotion, she managed to get along ery well without him, she was busy running several "worthy cases" at home. So I went everywhere I could. Luncheons, teas, dinners, theatres. Week-end parties for skating were the rage now, and summer houses were opened for winter guests. My aunt approved of a marvellous 6kating costume of blue and white wool that I bought, and had a lot of expensive pictures of me taken in it. These went about, with the usual "social r.otes." I wondered whether Win saw I hem? The pictures were very flattering, so I hoped he had. Meantime I made myself very charming to Nardonski, having found cut that Gwendolyn wished to keep him in her crowd. Meantime I helped my aunt in her gentle and clever little game of 'getting Gwen out of things." She was so successful that at the end of the winter no one saw that lady except at large parties or about lpwn "with people one wouldn't know," as my snobbish aunt put it. Several times I saw Gwen when I was dining out. I always saw her in the audience at the big concerts,

though no longer in the box where Nardonski bowed to her. She was an extraordinary figure that drew everyrne's eyes. This winter she affected black, and went everywhere, in a time when short skirts and youthful styles

were worn, in long, clinging trailing

gowns or velvet and fur and satin. I began to lose my dislike of her.

I began to admire her rich hair in its

eccentric fashion, and her curious, cat

like eyes.

Then came Win's message, and then more rumors, and once again I hated her with all the strength I had. His letter, in his strange but so familiar handwriting, fairly leaped out at me from the morning's pile of mail. I tore it open with trembling fingers, my breakfast forgotten, the other letters neglected. "My dear Connie," he began. "You seem to be the most popular young woman in New York, judging by the publicity you receive. You used to say you hated that; in fact, you quarreled with me violently once because I wanted you to send your picture to a magazine. I meet you now on every news stand. "I have been thinking that, as you

j are so popular, you might find it incon

venient to be tied to me. If you want an entire separation, I shall do everything I can " I don't think, I ever finished that letter. After all these months, Winthrop could still rach across the space between us and hurt me in a letter as he had so often hurt me in sreech. The rest of the letters stayed there until night . After I had gotten over the first sick pain of it, I dressed and went to my aunt's. I had to go to someone, and she would know whatever gossip was about. I showed her the letter. "What have you heard about Win? Why Ehould he suddenly write me like this?" Aunt Harriet suddenly softened, and grew sweeter and more lovable than I had ever seen her. "I suppose you had better know. A

friend of Nedda's heard that he wanta

to marry Gwen. I thought, you know.

that she would drop him as she drops all these chaps she grows enthusiastic

aDout. But he hangs on to him though I haven't seen them together for a long time. Win has a great deal of charm she may really like him " "But a separation a " "Well, why not?" asked aunt Harriet calmly.

"I couldn't bear it," I said, and borst

tuddenly into hysterical tears.

But I was ashamed of showing my feelings, so I controlled myself as soon as possible. . . . . - "Now, don't go and call up ihat little Colin "she said as I left. But that was my only refuge. I needed Colin'3 sympathy and strength as I had never needed anything before. Tomorrow Heart Balm.

Heart Problems

Dear Mrs. Thompson: Please give

jme a good shampoo for blonde hair.

MKS. G. H. S. S. Dissolve half a cake of white floating soap in a quart of boiling water. Let it simmer half an hour over a slow fire. Dissolve a tablespoonful of washing soda in a quart of boiling water. Add it to the soap mixture. Stir together and let cool. Use as a shampoo. Rinse the hair always in six clear waters after using a shampoo mixture. In the last rinse add

A DAILY FACE TREATMENT

The average good complexion will react to ordinary methods of cleanliness but the average poor complexion needs special care. When I say "average good" I mean a Ekin without pimples or such blemishes, fine grained except for coarse pores around the nose, and only a little sallow. That's an "average good" that's what most women have. The "average poor" complexion has a few pimples, or perhaps some blackheads, and is coarse in texture and not very clear in color. Pimples require special treatment in the way of medicines or foods to clear the system. The. skin will rid itself of a great deal of waste matter, but this daily face treatment will help amazingly to reduce coarse pores and clear out blackheads, and to improve the color of the skin. Tie the hair back. Then wring an old soft Turkish towel from very hot water, hold over the face for a minute or two. Rub in quite a bit of cleansing cream, working it well into the pores. Wash out with hot water and a mild soap castile for preference. Rinse with hot water, then with cold, then rub a piece of ice over the face, or use an astringent. Witch hazel is very good for the skin, a few drops of Tincture of Benzoin in water makes a milky fluid that is a standard astringent. This treatment not only takes off the dirt near the surface of the skin, but gets down into the pores, clearing them thoroughly. X. Y. Z. The Pilocarpine tonic does not change the color of the hair. It is a tonic that acts on the scalp in such a way, that the natural secretions are so stimulated, the tendency to premature greyness is apt to be overcome. A. M. M. M.

Natural warmth comes from nourishing foods that are easily digested. Shredded Wheat is better than mushy porridges because the crispness of the shreds encourages thorough chewing and complete digestion. For a warm, nourishing meal heat two Biscuits in the oven to restore their' crispness and pour hot rnflk over them, adding a little cream and a dash of salt. Nothing so strengthening and satisfying and the cost is only a few cents. Delicious with fresh or stewed fruits.
