The Middle Ground By MARION RUB1NCAM

growing tired of me. That's why

said just now I wouldn't marry you." This was a curious sort of lovemaking! Mrs. Talbot watched these two with utter lack of comprehension. First of all, it seemed so odd that she, Amy Talbot, should sit in a room and hear this conversation going on between her daughter and this man. She had to stay, for when in confusion she : rose to go out, Donald held her back. How strange young people were nowadays! The love-making of Amy's courtship Deriod was always carried on 'in some quiet moonlit spot, or sitting ;cozily before a winter fire there never was an audience! Moreover, the girl hesitated and blushed. Mrs. Talbot was sure she had blushed when Jordan proposed to her. And the man was anxious, diffident, a little awkward

in asking the important question. This man was threatening to leave Jane if he grew tired of her, before ihey were even engaged! And they would not let the mother go away, where she could settle down to think over the strange ways of the new generation! But this was not all "There's such a thing as taking a chance," Donald went on to say, a little humorous gleam coming into his eye.. "I don't think I would grow tired of you. Jane. You're different from other women. You might tire of me." "Of you!" Jane's incredulous laugh and glowing eyes as she faced Donald said all the words she left unspoken. This was better, thought Mrs. Talbot this was more as a love affair s-hould go. "It would be all right for a year,

or for the time you were in the min-j , ing camp." Jane said after a pause. I You probably would be glad to have me ! 'hen. because there would be so few intelligent people to talk to. But afterward "We would come back and be poor, pnd have all the struggle you began this winter to go through again worse, because I would be making my career too. You say you don't think you'll like the life there, it would be rather a bore, hundreds of miles from civilization, so even if the mines did 'pay, you wouldn't stay more than a . few years." Ryes wide and serious, Jane was trying to look into the future and see what, it might hold for both of them. "Meantime, we would be comfortably off in the camp. And we would be , tempted to have children. We've al- ; ways agreed there's no us1 for two intelligent people to be married if they don't have children. Then coming back find being frightfully poor would be impossible and and you would grow to hate me and the child too!" This left Mrs. Talbot gasping. In hr day two people never discussed . having children much less the possibility of not having them before they were married, certainly not before they were even engaged. And after marriage the subject was untouched

But here sat Jane and Donald calmly discussing whether or not they (ould afford a family, if they married! - Amv's head was running around ag-v'n, as it ued to in the nmtner when new idas were brought out and discussed. . "If I'm not afraid of being poor, ! why should you be'" Donald urged. "You are as brave about things like

llat as I am. and much less temperamental. Or haven't you the courage to face the prospect of poverty with me?" Donald's steel blue eyes never left the girl's face. "Do you think I would ever grow fired of you? Or that poverty, or discomforts, or loneliness, or anything c!?e would matter, if I had just you?" Jane had forgoten her mother's presence as she talked. She rose and walked across the room toward DonaJd. and stood facing him. ' He was leanins back aeralnst he

only if you wear special gloves to keep

the oil from staining the bed imen. Therefore, such a cosmetic as the hqney-almond lotion is invaluable because it is absorbed into the skin, softens and nourishes it and, incidentally, bleaches it white, yet contains no grease at all. It is a little bit difficult to make; that is, the almonds contained in it must be blanched ,and then pounded up into a paste. But if you can do this you will not have a bit of difficulty in making this lotion for yourself. It is as follows: Quince seed Va ounce Cold water 1 pint Steep this for 12 hours, strain through a cloth or a fine strainer, without pressure. Then take Sweet almonds .. 1 ounce These are blanched (shells removed before they are weighed), bruised and pounded fine.
