THE WALL FLOWER
Chapter 4. Jim Nicholson liked to think of his daughter as a little Cinderella with lis sister-in-law Maude and her daughter playing the part of the cruel stepmother and step-sister. It was so like Jim to sentimentalize over the situation and do practically nothing to help! As a matter of fact the eirl was not at all imposed on. except as every sensitive character suffers bv contact
with coarser natures. Both father and
uaugnter nad a home and a comfortable one with the prosperous Peter Nicholson. To be sure, Peter took a very slight advantage of the relationt ship, and Jim's obvious dependence vpon him, to give him less than the usual former's wage. He paid Jim ' 520 a month in a day when $25 was considered fair. And Dora, old enough and strong enough to be "useful around the house," was paid $8 a month for "helping." "The thing is,- Jim remarked to his daughter as though imparting a Piece of news, "that we live here That costs nothing." (which was true of every similarly emploved laboreof course!) "And we are like one of the family, not like hired help." Peter Nicholson had a farm some three miles possibly a little less from Norris City. Thev lived here from early spring until after harvesting; then for a few months when the country was buried under snow, they moved to a house in the center of the town. Aunt Maude found the isolation of the fanrn too much for her sociable disposition. It was too far from school . when Gladys was school' age. and the house in town, when it could be rented, brought practically nothing. On-? of the farm laborers, who had a small house on the farm itself, looked after the livestock. Peter wanted Jim to help at this, for the work was almost too much for one man. But Jim had always saved up his wages, and once the harvesting was over, had disappeared to the south where the weather was warm He had tramped it, stolen rides on freights, "ridden the rails" he used to call it now and then paid his fare; once he hought an old horse condemned to the glue factoryand had somehow ridden the poor beast through half a dozen states and then shot it because he could not bear to sell it to another owner when he had to go back to work. When Dora was old enough to leave school, he had taken her along, living in a much more respectable fashion than ever he had when alone, yet gipsying it for more than three months. And Dora had loved the discomfort and adventure she was never afraid And yet now, as she entered the par
lor, sne was in a state of nervous terror.
She was greeted with 'Hello, Dora." Some "Dory."
She slid into a chair and crossed her arms. Then she remembered that wasn't a nice position it didn't look "partified" so she uncrossed them, and clasped her hands over her cross ed knees, her back hunched a bit because she was tired. "Uncle Jim's going to plav, so we can dance," Gladys announced. And Jim, who performed upon a violin, a

cornet or an accordeon not knowing one note from another but reproducing by ear a lot of familiar melodies obligingly sat down and became an entire orchestra. "Don't you hate them to dance you never dance," one girl asked of Dora. She had a lame foot, so always had to "rit out" the dancQs. "Oh, I don't mind." Dora answered and the talk lapsed. Pandora knew all these people, some had been brought up with from childhood and yet somehow, she couldn't talk to
them. "Gladys looks pretty tonight" the other girl went on. She acknowledged it enviously. Her lame foot kept her out of many things, and had embittered her whole outlook. "Yes, doesn't she?" Talk lapsed again. Dora watched her cousin indeed, she thought her very pretty. Gladys loved parties, her cheeks flushed a hot red, her large eyes, of which she was so proud, had an exultant gleam, she was conscious of her fancy dress. Tonight it was a. blue taffeta, trimmed with a profusion of rhinestone banding. Gladys was the belle of every party. Her hearty laugh, per haps a little loud, rang out every minute. There were 11 young people in the room. Four couples danced; the lame girl sat and frowned. Dora sat and rested. The eleventh was a boy of about 23, with a lot of dry, sandy color hair and watery blue eyes, a wide, homely, gentle looking mouth, and so many freckles that -one wonderec where one freckle left off and others began. They were scattered separately over his face, they touched, they overlapped, they grew on top of each other and on one cheek was a large wart. Morton Newberry was almost as shy as Pandora, "Why don't you dance, Mort?" Gladys called across the room. "Aw,
go on: Go dance with Dora
haven t even snoken to hpr vet
Obediently the boy got up and went
to Dora. But he couldn't quite ask her to dance. He sat,by her instead, watching the others. The lame girl was talking to Peter Nicholson. Dora longed desperately to think of something to say to her companion. She couldn't find any comfortable place for her hands, which were suddenly in her way and sizes too largs for her. Tomorrow A Shy Friendship.

Dear Mrs. Thompson: Kindly print a lotion for blackheads. G. H. Try the green soap treatment for blackheads: Tincture of green soap, two ounces; distilled witch hazel, two ounces. Let this mixture stay on only a few moments, then wash off with hot water. If the green soap irritates the skin, as it sometimes will, use it every other day. Apply a cold cream. Green soap may be purchased at any drug store. It is not a regular "cake soap," but is of about the consistency of custard. Open each seed acne with the point of a fine needle. The hardening mass must be picked out. The empty sac of the gland should then be bathed with a little toilet vinegar and water, . or with a very weak solution of carbolic apiH and water' tVna naadla
. ! before using it by dipping into boiling
jv.aier, as tne use ot any instrument,
unless the needle as well as the skin is thoroughly cleansed, is always dangerous.

Investigate Mystery Surrounding Deaths (By Associated presa.) WILLIAMSPORT, Pa., July 20. County authorities today were investigating the mystery surrounding the death of a man and a woman believed to have been Mr. and Mrs. H. M. Shearer of Buffalo, N. Y., whose bodies with their throats cut, were found last night in Lycoming creek, near Bodines 20 miles south of this city. The bodies were discovered by passing motorists attracted by the cries of a three-year-old child standing in an automobile calling "Mamma" and pointing toward the creek. No blood stains were discovered on the bank and no weapon with which the pair could have hmn cioir.

The car. bearing a New l ork license had been standing along the road all day but attracted no attention because motorists frequently stopped at the spot to fish.
