The family will have to stand in the doorway, I need the whole room for this. Loo, turn the lights low." In an instant she was back, her hair hanging, her dress a Greek gown ot gray silk crepe that scarcely came to her knees and that was slit at the side so she could dance. Bare armed, bare limbed, her skin pearly white against the gray, she stepped into the dim

keep away from Amy, poor chap. He's coming in tonight to see her." Mrs. Tabot glanced at a clock on the mantel it was nearly 12. What an hour for Amy to be out! There was a ring it was not. Amy, but Dick that arrived. And there were more greetings. Mrs. Talbot was growing tired in spite of the excitement of her trip and seeing her children. Then Amy came in a transformed Amy, with a black cape around her s-houlders, and a fur collar coming al
most to her eyes, and a hat of black, rualine w ith a jet tassel on her head. J A transparent piece of millinery that in no way hid the glory of her auburn hair. Her hair gleamed and shone through the mesh of the material and fluffed out around her face from under the hat's brim. She kissed her mother, apologizing prettily for not being home to greet iter. She turned in surprise at Dick's voice. "Well, you are unexpected!" she exclaimed, giving him a charming smile and holding out a hand. Dick had turned alternately red and white when she ran in, his hand was almost wet from nervous presplration as he touched hers. But Amy, amazed as she was, never lost her self-control. She greeted her devoted lover with charmed surprise and friendly pleasure though she knew he had come to the city because he iou!d not bear to be away from her. "You see, it's my classic dancing class," she explained. "And I dare not miss one of them."

classic dance, while Jane played. She
was a little sylph, a charming, impersonal little figure that danced for love of music and motion, that succeeded in spite of little practice. But the mother, frozen with horror, saw only the "indecent exposure" of arms and legs, and gasped that her daughter had no thought for Dick. This was the sort of thing that went on in the city!
Heart Problems
Dear Mrs. Thompson: I am a girl eighteen years old and have been going with a fellow nineteen years old for over a year. He says he loves me. He never goes out with other
girls and he comes to see me three or lour times every week. I go out with two others, but not very often. The first doesn't like to dance very well, while the others do, and I also like to dance with them. Do you think I should quit the other two and only go with the first? I never have a very good time unless I . am with him. I know two of them will give me a Christmas present. Should I give both of them one? BOBBY II. The first young man probably is not in a position to marry and therefore does not mention an engagement. He may also doubt the depth of his love and not want to tie himself to an engagement which he will regret later. Since you are not engaged, however, I would advise you to keep the other

those persons who fail to see their common duty when it stands before their eyes. Tuberculosis is a social disease, and no one is sare from it until all are safe. Tuberculosis is one of the penalties of community life; its prevention and cure form a social privilege. Taxation ought to take care of every social need, but since it does not extra means must be made use of in its p!ace. It has been computed that two per cent of the average community support its charities and philanthropies. The 98 per cent seem to lack that human quality known as sympathy.

MENU SUGGESTION BY GREEN'S FORK WOMAN MAY HELP
Perhaps one of the wisest suggestions for providing three meals a day for two persons at 80 cents a day has been received from a Green's Fork housewife. This woman recommends that supplies for a week be purchased at ons time. Instead of buying in small quantities. In this way she explains that two people can be provided with three meals a day for a week on a little less than 80 cents a day. Such suggestions are of invaluabla
aid to those women who have the burden of managing the menu end of the daily house-work, and should be sent in to the "Menu Editor" of the Palladium for the benefit of others. Each menu will be printed as received. Do you know a novel way of furnishing the table economically? Then write it out and send it in. Following is the leter from Green's
Fork: "I have been reading the articles in regard to whether two person:-, could live on 80 cents a day in Richmond. I do not live in Richmond, but have relatives that do, and would like to suggest a few items. I do not believe two persons can live very well on 80 cents per day if they run to the store and just buy enough for one meal at a time, but I would buy enough for a week this time of year, and by doing so, can buy cheaper, and have more in the house to make
changes. "I would start by buying the first week, flour, 85 cents; sugar, 25 cents; coffee, 25 cents; bread, 25 cents; inert, $1.50; potatoes, 25 cents; sweet potatoes. 25 cents; breakfast food, 15 cents; beans. 25 cents; one half pound
of butter, 30 cents; milk, 35 cents;, salt. 5 cents; lard, 25 cents. This would total $4.90, an amount, I think if properly divided, will board two people a week. Besides, you still have 70 cent3 to buy a few eggs or some cabbage, celery or whatever might ba wanted and the next week I wouh) not need the flour and perhaps tne beans and some other thing would not be needed. "So I would in their stead buy ap pies or other fruit and possibly sal mon or dried beef so as to have a change. I believe if properly divided two people can live well on 80 cents a day or less."

"It looks so silly with shoes stockings," Amy objected. "I'll you, we'll have something to eat
I'll dance what we learned tonight." Jane and Luther disappeared into; the kitchen. Somehow one felt that in : this modest little establishment, young i Amy was the centre, the spoiled one around whom the place turned. Mrs. Talbot noticed for the first time then how everyone ran to do things for Amy. She had only to sit still and smile, and admiring friends of both sexes rushed to wait on" her. Even j Claire, spoiled and lazy as she was, made Amy dresses and spent hours teaching her music. J "But you haven't been out alcne this late and in the city?" Mrs. Talbot asked anxiously. "Why not?" Her brown eyes opened in surprise. "It's quite safe, mother." "Tn the city!" "The city's no ogre, ready to bite me. It's much safer than a dark country road for tramps sometimes are out on the roads, and here there are policernen and people all round." "Usually Ted brings me home, but I didn't want to bother wiih him tonight because you were coming,
mother dear." j "Who is Ted?" Dick asked jealoubly.j Jane and Luther came in w ith p1aes j of sandwiches and a percolater where I
coffee was beginning to bubble. Amy sank down in a chair, pulling her feet in under her cloak. 1 "Oh, he's in Claire's company, he's an actor," she explained carelessly.

About 1,500 letters containing one dollar's worth of tuberculosis s?als have been mailed to certain persons in ; Wayne county. It was hoped that'
every letter sent out would bear at least one dollar's worth of fruit, but so many have been returned that grave fears are entertained for the success of the mail method. It is admitted by those in charge of the

Enterp:
SOME bake at home with economy in mind, chiefly. Some pride themselves on baking as a practical accomplishment. Both reach utmost satisfaction when they use Enterprise. Valier's Enterprise Flour is an economy because its high strengtft produces so much more to the sackful. It has that strength because it is made only from the marrow-rich heart kernels of the finest hard wheat. Its richness is doubly an economy because its Suality never varies at I. So you can use Enterprise with perfect certainty. It does not ever disappoint 1
