Beauty- Chats By Edna Kent Forbes
I NEW DAY ' Synopsis of Preceeding Chapters Pandora Nicholson is so shy that meeting new people is a painful ex- : perience. She lives as a sort of poor relation with her aunt Maude, her uncle Peter, and their daughter, Gladys who is hearty, buxom and the most popular girl in Norris City. Pandora is in this "set"' too, but generally ignored and overlooked. She has been neglected or snubbed so much that she believes herself repulsively homely,
too unattractive mentally and physi
cally ever to make friends. So when Morton Newberry begins to like her, she returns his affections to an intense degree. The little friend-
shin became love when Gladys de
cided she wants Morton,' possibly be
cause he was the only boy who never paid any attention to her goes after
him and succeeds in marrying him. Pandora is heartbroken. Then suddenly Mrs. Gates, a decorator from New York whom she had met in the
summer before, asks her to spend the
winter with her. Chapter 43
In spite of her tiredness. Pandora was awake early next morning. Her tiny room was so attractive she lay looking at it for some time, taking in
with pleasure each tiny detail.
Gloria had used her decorative
ability to make her cheap little flat into a perfect gem of a home. The guest room, too small for a bed, had a couch instead, with"" a silky rug of varying tones of blue thrown over it in the daytime. The one window was veiled with yellow net, and had long curtains of French blue lined with orange the gaudy lining just showing now and then. The dressing table was veiled with yellow net, and had long curtains of French blue lined with orange the gaudy lining just showing now and then. The dressing table was a kitchen table with orange enamelled top and glass over it, and a ruffle of blue silk that fell to the floor orange and blue ' silk roses edged the top. Gloria, not able to afford a nice dresser set, took wooden -backed brushes and boxes and painted them orange with colored flowers. There was room for a tiny table holding a lamp, and one armchair done in blue and orange cretonne. Pan's trunk went under the bed. "And you limit your supply of clothing to the size of your closet," Gloria had said. But the girl's few things had more than enough room, even in this small closet. Pandors got up and began to dress. She was sure she had overslept; she slipped out to the kitchen to find it was 8 o'clock an unheard of hour for the country. But the flat was silent, even Frankie was asleep. The girl began hunting around for supplies, lighted the gas stove and began making hot biscuits for breakfast. She started coffee too, and found egjes for an omelet. It was a mystery where one ate for the dining room had been made into a bedroom and playroom for the boy. She turned at an exclamation from the doorway. Gloria, rolled in a flaming scarlet silk robe, her straight black hair hanging around her shoulders, was standing there smiling with amusement.
"I was wakened by the most delicious smell," she was saying. "I was sure I was dreaming, for I haven't smelled such good coffee for weeks. I had to come back here to be sure it was true." Dora laughed. She moved about competently, at home in any kitchen, poor child: Gloria began putting dishes on a tray it appeared that breakfast was eaten in the living room. Gloria sat curled up on the couch, her feet under her, about six daily papers scattered about, and took her eggs and coff' that way. Frankie appeared in a dimiutive bathrobe. "I'm interviewing six cooks today," Gloria said after she had dressed and was ready to go to her office. "I'll send one along to you. I didn't bring
you here to work, you know, but for
a rest and a change.
"I'm so glad to be here I'd rather work to show how glad," Pandora answered. "Darling child!" Gloria's eyes showed amusement, but her mouth was tender and trembled a little, as it did when something touched her or hurt her. Dora decided Frankie was too ill yet to go out. So she put him on the couch with some books, and then began a systematic cleaning of the much neglected apartment. No cook appeared none came for weeks, but Dora was perfectly happy. "We haven't had a maid for ages," Frankie informed her. "And all the last ones were sumpin' awful. "We only had nurse, and she was so busy taking care of me she couldn't do any work. Mummy says I take a lot of looking after." "He never got it, if he needed it." Gloria laughed when she got home and this remark was repeated to her. "Nurse fell in love with a sailor, and
found the chap reluctant to marry so
she kept Frankie, herself, myself, and everyone else in such a state of nerves
and excitement that we were ready to
collapse when she did go off and marry
him. They eloped somewhere "
"Maryland," announced Frankie who
knew all the details of the affair.
"You young wretch!" Gloria said
with an affectionate laugh, picking him
up in her arms. "Will you be a good
boy and have your bath and go to bed now? Mummy has people to tea."
People always came to tea, Pandora discovered, except when Gloria was out. "I haven't enough money to entertain," Gloria said once. "But tea costs nothing. It's only necessary to get enough interesting people to sit about and talk." The girl refused to appear that afternoon. She couldn't face a roomful of strange people. She stayed back in the flat, gave Frankie his bath and supper and put him to bed. She had a glimpse of men and women sitting about and laughing. Bobby kept coming into the kitchen for more tea and hot water. She saw exquisite dresses, heard new voices and laughter, and cheerfully went on working in the kitchen. She was happy to be near this gaiety,
without being in it. But this state of
affairs Gloria refused to allow.
Heart Problems
Dear Mrs. Thompson : I am a young married woman of eighteen years. I have a little baby girl sixteeji months
old. She has light hair, which is al
most red, and I am afraid it will turn
red as she gets older. I fairly hate red
hair, but I adore dark hair, as her
daddy has black hair. -I am a blonde. Will you please tell me what I can do for her hair to make it dark and yet not injure the growth of it or make it
streaked? BLUE EYES.
let nature take its course with your
child's hair. .There is nothing you can use that will not injure the growth and spoil the hair. Since it is not red
now, there is no use in imagining that it will turn red. Children's hair usually turns darker as they grow older.
Red hair, however, Is considered very beautiful. Dear Mrs. Thompson: My sister has asked me to be bridesmaid at her wedding and I am very anxious to know whether I should ask a friend of mine to serve as best man or whether my sister's fiance should ask him. Is it proper for the best man to pay the minister, or should the groom? ANXIOUS. Your sister's fiance should choose the best man. The groom pays the minister.
W' s
than anything known - since the old days of hand looms and block printing. The loveliest of these presentday cottons are hand printed, their colors so blended as to give the effect of some of some old hand prints that
have been packed away for a century. And these materials are not only sold
by the yard, but can bo found made up
in completed frocks at any sum from
$50- upward to $100 or more. Such
dresses though made of cotton and
simple in their straight line design
have proved the most beautiful things of this season and are suited to any
summer or early fall functions.
True, these frocks would not be suit
ed to rough usage, although they laun
der perfectly. But they can be easily
copied as to style, and I am offering them as a suggestion for dresses that
are better suited to the housekeepers
needs. Now, as the season wanes on
many bargain counters will be found
the light weight cretonnes or the new
cotton prints equally beautiful in de
sign and coloring. Three or four yard3, at 50 cents a yard, makes up a frock that will not only wash well, but be so picturesque as to transform into a ver
itable eye feast many woman who has
look uninteresting in her other dresses.
How to Keep Pretty Though Busy
There never has been a time when a
housekeeper could look so attractive as thep present. One reason for this is a continued liking for the one piece
loose frock of straight lines. Another reason is that cotton goods are no longer soarce and expensive, as they were for a number of years. Materials now are more beautiful
Discouraged: The fine hair that
grows" on the arms and hands can be
kept- from becoming conspicious Dy
use. of a bleach such as peroxide or
hydrogen. Cherry: The eyelash formula will be mailed to you it you desire it. When
requesting this includs a stamped ed-
dressed envelope.
M. K. M.: Lace a fine toothed
comb and use it on your hair, keeping
it wet all the time by dipping in vine
gar. This will remove the shell but
if vermin are left use kerosene.
Margaret: If you are too thin build yourself up and the bust and neck will also fill out. Masage with cocoa
butter. Anna: Your hair seems a lovely Ti
tian shade to nie. If the eyebrows
are faded rub them with castor oil
each night. It will help bring back
the original color, i
Moist soap rubbed on the puncture from a mosquito bite will cause the irritation to pass away.

Wireless Equipped Car Gives Concert Sunday A radio equipped automobile, carry-, ing a wireless aerial mounted above the top, passed through Richmond Monday on its way to the Indianapolis state fair from Columbus.
