The Middle Ground . By MARION RUBINCAM

A CLIMAX. Chapter 54. Of course this change did not take place all at once, no great change ever does. Some days she would be miserable because of this new point of view; some days she would swing back into the narrow crabbed old woman that she was when she first came to the city. But gradually contact with educated people, leisure, rest, occasion a I frivolous pleasure, had the inevitable effect. Amy Talbot was broadening out in her ideas. Amy Talbot really was beginning to think. So when the climax came she was in shape to meet it. , She had written Jordan telling him she had no intention of returning to the farm until her duty in the city was done. It was more or less a repetition of her first leter, Jordan being the sort that understands a thing better if it is repeated to him. She went over a few more of grievances about the farm house, as she had done before, and then at the end remarked that she was enjoying life in the city! Truly this evidenced some faint remnant of childhood mischief that was still alive inside her. It was not the sort of thing she would usually say, she knew how angry Jordan would be. Meantime Donald Moore began coming to the flat again. He made himself as charming to her as he could. And she found again that she could not dislike him, though she wanted to. Then one day he appeared for dinner. He was restless and by turns talkative and glomily silent. Jane, who took his-moods sensibly, watched liim calmnly all through dinner and took him off to the living room later, whore she began to talk a hospital case they were both interested in Luther ana Amy were bot bout. Mrs. Talbot cleared away the dinner, taking n.s much time .is possible, so as to leave the two alone in the front room together. In such a small flat, it was always n problem as to how two people coali be left aJcce for a visit. There was only the one room, so if Jane and Amy both had callers, tno two crowds i.ad to mix fo.- the evening. Usually th.i results were disastrous, for Jane's re; :ous friends h?.d nothing in common with Amy's frivolous ones, and such mttics, Amy d-clarcd, '"bored her to death." Donald was walking back and forth, smoking cigarettes and talking hurriedly in low tones. Occasionally Jano murmured something. At last, when there was not an excuse for staying iiny longer, Mrs. Talbot went up to the living room intending to stay a polite length of time and then retire to her bedroom. "I want to talk to you," Donald be gan abruptly. So with surprise and a little dismay, she sat herself down to listen. Jane pat. as usual, on the straight chair by the desk, chin in her hand, her eyes never leaving Donald as he paced back and forth over the room. Donald smoked rapidly. Then he said: "There is a big mining syndicate that is opening up some silver mines in South America. It is back in the hills, hundreds of miles from the coast, several days journey from the nearest seaport town, and three weeks' voyage from New York to the port. They have to have a company doctor. They offered me the place some months ago and I refused. I thought I could suc ceed here as a specialist. I am being helped by a very kind lady who has done everything possible to get mo started I haven't succeeded in my profession it takes years, almost a lifetime to do that. "I refused the place because I did not want to leave Jane; that was as much my reason as a hope that the winter would see, at least, a beginning of a career here. The company did not pav very well, u was an even ch?nce the mines were worthless and that they would fail and close down jn a year or so and a year or so outside New York now would set me back ten years in getting hold. "Since they they have made the offer again, giving more money. Also they have convinced me that they have a good chance of making the mines pay. I want to go." "And give up your work here!" Jane interposed. "And make my career there. Wby not?" He stopped, and stood facing the mother. 'I want to take Jano with me. I am going to take Jane with me. I asked her tonight, to marry me." A feeling of enormous relief went over the little woman on the couch. It was all right, then! Tons of weight dropped from her shoulders. She turned, radiant, to Jano. Donald went on: ".Tane refuses." "It is all right while you are down t!iorc, v.-Wch may be a year or so." iano said. "P.ut after that back ere in New York, making a start

yond Mrs. Talbot's Comprehension, 1 What had suddenly gotten into her i daughter? Tommorrow Fresh Climaxes. Beauty Chats By Edna Kent Forbes -4 , i ' aits v X. $ ,t1 M .7 1' This helps you to stand-well. j Many girls complain that they feel self-conscious in the company of strangers, thatthey do not quite know what to do with their hands and feet. This feeling of being all hands and feet 'is the commonest form of shyness. Now self-consciousness is very hard to cure, but I think this suggestion might help. If a girl felt that she stood very well and that she walked well, or if she felt that she made a graceful picture when she tat down, I am sure she would lose most of that self-conscious feeling. In other words, she needs to acquire grace of movement and poise. Here is one way to acquire that: . There is a simple beneficial exercise which strengthens the ankles, makes the calves of the legs well-developed and shapely and strengthens the archest and toes of the foot. It will make you stand beter and it will make you walk more gracefully. It is as follows Stand in your bare feet or stocking feet, preferably before a mirror, so you 'can watch yourself exercise. Raise the heels from the floor so your whole weight is on the balls of the feet. Go back to the first position, then rise again to the toes, a little bit higher this time, so that the weight seems to go almost enirely on the toes. Repeat this at least a dozen times. Then, after you have rested, walk around

Try to make yourself fatter by taking two tablespoonsful of olive oil with grape juice every day or by drinking a great de"al of milk with cream in it. Then take exercises for the arms and legs. Stand with the hands stretched out in front of you and the fists clenched and pull the arms back to the shoulders, tensing the muscles and resisting yourself as much as possible. This is an excellent arm exercise. Dancing is good for developing the legs.
