AMY'S PARTY. Chapter 88. Once home, she found herself too busy to think of anything but the party that Amy vr&s giving that night. Any was sure she could be home that afternoon to help make the arrangements herself the. mother got into a dark flat, "without even the first prepara Hon for dinner, and a note from Amy that a special rehearsal had been cal'ed and she would be back by seven. She pulled a big apron over he;1 street dress, silently giving thanks for the convenience of the city that supplied ready cooked meals when necessary. Soup and a vegetable and a desert came out of cans, and whi'e the potatoes boiled she ran around the corner for a cake. Amy came in. a slim, well-tailored figure in her new tan covert cloth suit, with a heavier collar that rolled up to her nice little nose, and made her brown eyes prettier than ever. A

brown beaver hat rolled back from her face and showed off her .rich tinted auburn hair to perfection. Amy, under Claire's tutoring, had learned the art of dressing well on a small income. Her one suit she spent all her money on. her evening dresses she made up cleverly from odd3 and ends out of sales. Amy on the street was trig, self-possessed, smart, her little nose tilted to a pert but becoming angue. Amy before her party was a hard working little housewife who made dainty sandwiches with- amazing quickness, and deftly arranged the inexpensive family possessions so the house looked rather well. Amy. when the party was in full swing.was a slim little figure in a dress much too sophisticated for her, a child glorying in "dressing up," havw ing a glorious time at her own party, and looking exceedingly sweet aiu: young and innocent when she smoked a cigarette. There was Dave, and Mark Adam Arnold, of course, "The Tweedle Sisters, Dum and Dee," a dancing act from the vaudeville circuit, consisting of two girls who had met three weeks before when the "act' went on and made an immediate hit there was Dick, who had been arouad three times a week ever since the Talbots returned from the country, and the one guest Amy was not glad to see a little brunette with noisy spirits, whom Arnold was suspected of liking too much. "She sct3 the pace at every party." Mark whispered to Dave while the little brunette was burlesquing the tragedy queen of the current season "She always spurs on Aimee, who isn't going to let any black-eyed chit get ahead of her,' Dave agreed. "Some pace, too! I'll bet on the black one." Mark laughed, watching the extravagant gestures of the girl, and glancing across the room at Amy. Amy concealed her dislike by being particu

larly sweet to her guest but when she bad her doing "stunts" she slipped onto the couch by Adam who put a possessive hand over hers. The party went on Amy danced, ! nnd Mark did an imitation of her ianee which made them roar. After

the shows were out some others came in, and sat on the floor when the chairs ran out; and made more sandwiches and laughed and smoked and flirted. One man sang the song that was to be "plugged" hardest at a ne-.v show opening the following-week, and they made a mock court finally, with Adam as king in a crown from silver paper. Adam had to choose his queen blind-) fold there' was still more noise until some long suffering neighbor on tfca floor below hammered on the steam pipes and the party hushed and giggled. "We will all bundle into my car and Mark's, and finish the party at mihouse," Adam declared, enjoying his paper crown and position in the party too much to want to stop. Luther excused himself and went to bed Mrs. Talbot went along on a

courtesy invitation. But she was no longer considered "that old lady" som-i one the young people had to be nice to when they couldn't get out of it. In Arnold's big house they could make as much noise a3 they wanted. There was his grand piano taplay on. his big drawing room to dance in, and more and more things to eat. Blindfolded, he pursued his "queen." The "Dee" sister pushed Amy into his arms, and an imitation Italian antique chair was declared the throne. Adam became .intoxicated with the idea of being dramatic. "Ladies and gentlemen, behold my queen the queen of er well, I don't know what. And I might as well nounce now that she has promised to be er my queen that is, this is th; best time I can think of to make public bur engagement! A hush one girl's black eyes turned blacker yet, and she bit her lips till they hurt. One chubby faced boy.fck the world go out like an extinguished candle. One old lady felt her heart stop, and something say, "It's done, it's over then.'' And a tumult of er) plause! Tomorrow Being Engaged.

THE PROFILE

The most discouraged letters that 1

receive are rrom women who are dis

satisfied with their profiles. Nothing, they think, can be done to improve the side face. There is the bad chin and the bad nose, the forehead that slopes too much, and what can be

done to change them? Of course the answer is nothing at all. But to balance this discouraging statement I always write that a great deal can be done to make the profile seem prettier than it really is. The woman with a poor profile must be particularly careful cf her complexion, which should be flawless, and

j of her hair, which should be" perfectly

uressea. in iact sne can aress ner hair so as to make an ingrowing chin an attractive part of her face! The usual way to do this is to fluff the hair softly around the face and then to draw it into a very high knot at

The side face shows character. the back. A little experimenting will show each woman the very" best way for her to do this. Curiously enough the shape of the eyebrows and the length of the eyelashes have a great deal to do with attractiveness of profile. If the eyebrows are kept well shaped by brushing them constantly and pulling out all superfluous hairs it will help immensely. If the eyelashes are treated with the proper sort of creams and ointments so they will grow long and thick, this, too, will aid the appearance of the side face. If the cheeks are pink and round

with health, they, too. v. ill help to make the side view of the face attractive. H. W. L. A boy. 16 years of age, who 1b underweight and taa no appetite, requires something to build him up. Since this boy goes to work every day and is also being taxed for growth he could not keep up his pres

ent good health taking only about

one-third as much food as he should

and with his Dresent weight of 102

pounds.

G. T. I 6hall be elad to, mail you the formula for the eyelashes if you

send me a stamped addressed envelope. . MRS. H. C Your skin Is probably too dry which accounts for the chapping each time .after you wash it. If you use a cream sometimes to cleanse the skin and omit the water, or cream following the water, you will not have this trouble. PEGGY. With hair as oily as yours the lemon juice and baking soda will be all right ,to use in the last rinse after the shampoo.

Heart Problems

Dear Mrs. Thompson: I am a girl of 17, and am just starting to go with boys. Should gins invite boys into their homes when they have brought them home from somewhere? What should a girl do to entertain her friend when he comes to see her? Should she invite him to come again? THANK YOU. It is all right to invite the boy ;o come in if it is not later , than 10 o'clock. If it is too late, ask him to

come and see you some time. She might make candy, read a story, take a walk, play a game such s cribbge, or just talk. Yes, she should invite him to com-j again, but leave it for him to set the night.

MRS. MYERS WANTS TO CUT EXPENSES Believing in true economy, Mrs. Myers yesterday told Mrs. Smith how she had tried to keep her household expenses down" but didn't seem to be able to save a penny. "I'll tell you what I do," said Mr3. Smith. "For one thing, I save quite a bit of money on my soap bilL You've heard of that Rub-No-More Washing Powder that the grocer sells? Well. I find that it saves me at least half of my soap bill, for it is a wonderful water softener and it doesn't leave that soapy film so objectionable with ordinary soap powders. Besides, it dissolves and removes the grease instantly from my china, glassware, dishes, etc., and leaves them perfectly clean and sparkling." "I'm going down to the grocer's this morning and I'll sure get a package of that Rub-No-More Washing Powder, '
