The Middle Ground - By MARION RUBINCAM

DICK GOES Chapter 93 Amy was home early the night Dick ame, for it .was a double bill that performance, the last was "Le Coq d'Or," in which she was not u'sea. But she had lingered awhile after the chorus was dressed in street clothes and scattered, and standing out of the way behind some 6cenery listened for the girl who sang the exquisite "Hymn to the Dawn." The inger was a young American who was finding the struggle against foreign stars none too easy, and the struggle ngainst foreign jealousies almost unbearable. But she had a voice of poignant , sweetness, with certain notes in it that brought the tears to Amy's eyes as she listened and despair to her heart of ever singing with such artistry. She went home alone, glad to be alone for a change. She was always

in ft soft mood after nn nnpra pvepnt those in which she herself worked. t She was too keyed up and nervous to be affected emotionally then. She climbed on top of a bus, her hands tucked in the new muff sent her by Adam, her thoughts back on the stage with the girls who had sung so beautifully. At home, she found Dick waiting in the living room. Luther was out. Luther had developed the habit of spending his evenings in the library reading room, and of walking home after the ten o'clock closing. But Mrs. Talbot was there, plainly nervous at this meeting, plainly upset by Dick's appearance. Of.courss they had been having a 1 eart to heart talk! Amy knew that by the molstness around her mother's eye. "Hel-hello, Dick." she stammered. from the doorway. Dick rose, but

vv made no effort to shake Lands. "I've just dropped in to tell telt ou and your mother about my new plans," he answered. Hands within her muff, she slipped ff the bulky diamond ring. Then she

laid the muff down, and took off her bat and coat. She did not quite know why she wanted to bide her engagement ring, though Dick knew all about the engagement itself. Her mother brought the hot' cocoa and crackers that was part of Amy's nightly routine to take. Amy bad really gotten to the place where she had to quiet herself at bedtime by taking hot drinks, and where she had to give herself extra nourishment to keep in good condition. Mrs. Talbot retired; Amy and Dick were alone. ' Dick sat off by himself in the arm chair, Amy curled her feet under her in the corner of the couch. "What are your plans?" she asked, as Dick sat quietly without speaking. Heart Problems Dear Mrs. Thompson: I am a girl of almost nineteen, deeply in love with and engaged to a young man of twenty-two. We have planned to be married this spring and have saved a little money. Mother doesn't want me to be married as she says we can't

live on what he makes. She says I lould not marry anyone who has a better character. She also says I am too young and wants me to wait several years yet. I have gone with this man for two years and we have been engaged for ft a year. I have always been a girl who v was more interested in staying at home cooking and keeping house than to go out at night as other young people do. Don't you think it would be all right for us to be married this spring and better than to wait so long, as we love each other and neither of us believes in long engagements? All of our friends tell us that we could be very happy. ANXIOUS FIANCE. To marry would be very foolish unless your fiance's inome is sufficient to warrant it. It costs a great deal to buy merely the necessities and you will find that more money is needed for running expenses than you count upon now. Love is a fine thing and it blinds the eyes to much that is unpleasant, but it cannot provide food and clothing and a house to live in. Both you and your fiance are very young and can afford to wait a year or two longer before you marry. My advice is to save money and have a good

ank account to fall back on before on marry.

"I'm going to South America, and will probably Join Jane and her husband at Camr Aiax." he told her.

Amy went white. But she had dig-; nity to keep up. j "It's so-sudden, isn't it?" she asked.! not daring to lift the cup for fear it; would show her hands trembling. "You're not an engineer or a doctor or carpenter ." Dick explained briefly. "I told my chief I wouldn't be much ! good in the export business until I had seen South America. I've been get-! ting along well enough with my Spanish to want to try it out where they speak it. The boss agreed to let me go for as long as I wanted." He did not add that his chief had asked interestingly how he got along with the wooing he"bought" a vacatur. ,4 tl.t ,1... a l wvu fcw aim mat. iiuui lliui cuxiiidence Dick told hira the girl had finally decided to marry the other man. Which 'was why he wanted to leave the country, he added calmly. ! And the man sympathetically let him off, gave him letters to firms in South America, and promised to place him when he got back. Dick had then gone to Donald's friend in the mining concern and found a position helping trasport supplies to the mountains from Buenos Ayres, at about halt the salary he was making. "When do you go?" Amy asked, voice low, eyes down. "Soon; I don't know when I'm shipping on a fruit liner as seaman to pay my passage down, and stopping off at several ports on the way. I'll have a few days in each; it will give me time o see some of the sea coast towns." "You're giving up your career " Amy began, having one pcfectly good objection. "My career has been spoiled already." Dick said quietly. "So the best thing is to begin a new one in a strange place. It doesn't matter, I'm young yet." No sting was Intended 1n this, Dick was really above that sort of retaliation. But Amy felt it the more sharply because Dick did not mean it to hurt her, Dick was going away. And she would not see him "So this is goodbye." he 'was saying, and stood up ready to go. Tomorrow Heart Ache. CONGRESSIONAL (Continued from Page One.) members, both Republicans and Democrats, announces that they favor bonus legislation which makes no provision for raising revenue. Still another faction shouts for a bond issue, and there are quite a few members who are insisting upon the levying of taxes upon amusements, gasoline, tobacco, etc. Those who stand on the side lines and watch congress wiggle and squirm are wondering whether all of the conflicting views on financing the bonus can ever be harmonized. It has been reported that if congress does not come out of its bonus delirium within the next week or two the president may call in some of the leaders and urge that the bonus question be dropped for this session. He has given no intimation, it is said, as to now far he would be willing to go in order to bring about the side-track ing ot this legislation, hut manv are convinced that he would veto a bonus bill which provided either not a plan of raising the necessary revenue, or else some plan other than a sales tax. Approve President's Suggestion. Republican members of the ways and means committee at this time seem inclined to approve the president's suggestion about a sales tar. Their idea now is for a tax at the rate of one per cent on manufacturers' sales, exempting farm products, livestock and mineral products. It is estimated that this would raise about $200,000,000 a year. They believe the remainder could be provided by ad ditional economies in the general appropriation bills. Getting back to the tariff squabble. With the committees of the two houses having charge of this legislation at sword's points over the question of American or foreign valuation the prospect of an early summer ad journment of congress appears to have gone glimmering. In the event a tariff agreement could not be reached until fall there is a strong probability that a demand would then arise th.-u j often all that is necessary.

GIRL LOSES FIGHT TO REMAIN AT BRYN MAVR PHILADELPHIA. Feb. 23. Miss Marjorie Barker, the Bryn Mawr student whose summary dismissal from college was followed by a civil suit looking to her restitution, lost her case in the court of common pleas when the action of the college authorities was upheld. The college, in defense against i si miss marker s acI Ls 'J Hon., maintained its jT 3 "r5gnt to dismiss ST '! anv sstiiilpnt with or without trial, and without giving public reasons for so doing." MissMarporie ( Miss Barker's Barker dismissal, accord ing to testimony offered in public hearings of her suit before the courts at Norristown, Pa., was made by the acting president of the college without any form of trial, and without informing the student of the nature of her offenses. The information later given. Miss Barker said, was that her dismissal had been caused by "petty thefts," but no evidence was offered to prove her guilty. no action be taken until after the elections in November. Should the tariff measure go over until after the election, the question which presents itself is whether it would be possible to pass a bill in tho short session next wjnter and whether the task would not be thrown on Die shoulders of the congress which will be elected next November and will be gin service March 4, 1923.

TODAY'S BEAUTY TALK You can enjoy a delightful shampoo with very little effort and for a very trifling cost, if you get from your druggist a package of canthrox and dissolve a teaspoonful in a cup of hot water. This makes a full cup of shampoo liquid enough so it is easy to apply it to all the hair instead of just the top of the head. Your shampoo is now ready. Just pour a little at a time on the scalp and hair until both are entirely covered by the daintily perfumed preparation that thoroughly dissolves and removes every bit of dandruff, excess oil and j dirt. After rinsing, the hair dries quickly with a fluffiness that makes it seem heavier than it is, and takes on a rich luster and a softness that makes arranging it a pleasure. Advertisement.

States in the World war. and after-, wards, Col. Davis served with theforces of Great Britain. France, Rus-f sia, Italy, Serbia and Greece. Later he served as military attache In Holland and at Berlin. According to Col. Davis, his most valuable military experience was with the British cavalry during the Jerusalem campaign, and he stated- he was surprised to find that so little was known in the United States regarding the facts of General Allenby's two remarkable campaigns in the Holy Land, each of which he characterized as "an exquisite example of the combined operations of all arms of the service under a master strategist and a great natural leader of men." In both the Jerusalem and Damas HAD THAT TIRED, WOHX-OIT KKICl.ING Do you know that "awful tired feeling," languidness. lame or weak back, sore muscles, stiff or swollen joints, or rheumatic pains usuallv indicate kidney trouble?

You can count on Enterprise week in and week out, month after month, for fine, even-textured, full-flavored baking with never a failure. By milling Enterprise from ordinary wheat, we could sell it for less. But it would be no better than ordinary flour. We'd rather be sure of the high quality of Enterprise and forget that it costs a 'few cents more a sack. Wouldn't you? It costs much less than it did last year.
