Synopsis of Preceding Chapters Pandora Nicholson is so shy that she dreads meeting people and can never find anything to say to them. As a result shs makes no friends and feels like an outcast, even among her own people. She lives, as a poor relation with her Aunt Maude and Uncle Peter and their very popular daughter, Gladys All of them tell her so often she is hopelessly stupid that she believes it She does make one friend in the vil-' lage, Morton Newberry. Because he is kind to her, she is passionately grate ful, thinks she is in love with him. Then Gladys suddenly decides she wants Morton and goes oft and marries him, leaving Pandora heartbroken. Soon after, Gloria Gates, a New York woman Pan had met before, sends for her to look after her son, Frankie. In the city among kindlier people. Pan begins to find herself and to see that she was an outcast before only because she was superior, not infeiior to the people she had been with. She falls in love with George Ridgeway whom she thinks in love with Gloria. Gloria is in love with Santley Colins, who lives in London. Gloria takes a business trip (o Europe. Pan and Frankie go w ith her. They see Santley. Gloria comes in one day announcing she has just married him.

WHAT GEORGE WROTE Chapter 85 The most unexpected thing is often that which has been expected and is overdue. For this reason Pandora vas surprised when Gloria came into the room and said she was married. Long ago in New York she had thought it would happen when Gloria was free. She wanted it to happen. Later she was sure that George too, was in love with Gloria. That complicated matters fo, t-he was torn between two affections. She wanted Gloria's happiness, which was with Santley; and she wanted (loorge's happiness, which seemed to be with Gloiia. Then, when they had ben in London so long and Santley had disappeared, she gave up all idea that Gloria would rver marry him. Kven when he came back and the disappearance wes axplained, she was noi sure and here, suddenly they come n together, and Gloria, with eyes that glowed raidantly, and mouth that half t rembled while it. smiled, e announced that they had just been married. So Pan was happy, surprised, and a little dismayed wondering what George would think. For all this time, she had thought not once of herself but only of the two people she loved so much. "I 1 don't know what to say I'm so happy, of course," she managed af

ter an instant. Then she put her arms

around Gloria and kissed her. "You don't look it a bit," Gloria answered, returning her kiss and instantly falling into her usual mood of frivolity. "You look as though you had lost your last friend." "Well!" Pan said, with smiling

finality. "In a way I have. You won't j need me any more to look after you. 'I "Dear me, won't I? Someone wiU1 have to relieve Santley now and then ' when I get too much for him! He's! never learned not to take me serious-: ly." This with an arm around Pan j and a hand stretched to the man wh j caught and kissed it. . But Gloria's moods changed rapidly, I and she was sober again now. I

looked surprised and then began to laugh. "I can see my future!" she exclaim

ed. "Henceforth I take orders. It's been years since I've been told what 1 should do. I wonder whether I'll grow used to it." But Frankie appeared at this moment, and Pan, who usually had the practical sense of the party, went into Gloria's room to pack her traveling bags. When she helped select the new frocks and lingerie in Paris, she had no more idea than Gloria, that they were to be a trousseau. Gloria, at a loss how to put it to the child, began directly: "Mother's married Santley, dear and we're going away for two weeks. Wil you be happy staying here witn Pan?" "Of course!" Frankie from his moth er's lap, gave Santley his most serious attention. "13 he my father then?" he asked. To him all parents were centered in one woman, who teased him, played with him, laughed at him, and was gen erally a most adorable comrade, but who could'nt mend clothes, or darn socks as other mothers did, who rarely lectured as other mothers lectured who was quite superior to the usual mother, he was convinced. As for fathers they seemed superflous when one could have such a satisfying sort of mother. "I'm not but I'll do my best to be a proper sort of father," Santley promised. This brought from Frankie a mild. "Oh," and he slid from his mother's lap to the corner of the couch, to consider the matter. But a moment later, his small friends in the hotel appeared to ask him to join in a game, and he causually kissed his mother goodbye and went off, content to leave the olandi jpoinprob-"v jdetmen. problem of step-fatherhood in other hands. His friends had a new puppy who was to be taught tricks, this was a much more pressing matter to attend to. . Pan, with Gloria's help finished packing and dispatched the bigs. Santley found there was time, if they hurried, to make a late train to Paris The girl stood in the doorway of the apartment, upset now by their pack ing, and watched them down the corridor to the elevator. Gloria who was of normal height, looked small against Santley's lean tallncss and awfully young and slender in her smart little suit. Pan saw Santley take Gloria's arm and pull

Smocks make every figure slim. When I decided , to write about smocks and skirts as a simple practical way of dressing I was thinking principally of the expectant mother. One of the worst trials of the young mother particularly if it is the first baby, is to see the disappearance of the kIptkW

lines of her figure. She begins then to sympathize with the woman who is growing stout through overeating; in fact probably for the first time in her life she will find something pathetic about the comic fat lady. A smock will make almost every figure look slim, that is if it is properly made. It is loose and straight, it conceals the waist line or lack of it, it does away with the need for corsets because it was first made in countries where corsets were never heard of. I would advise every housewife to wear a straight dark skirt with a raised waist band or an elastic through the waistband, and over it a simply made smock. This could be of natural or colored linen, gingham or chambray with a touch of coarse bright embroidery. These smocks are easy to launder and hold their freshness for several days. Such a costume takes half a minute to slip into a morning and keeps the housewife looking neat while she works. At the same time it gives her a chance to work without corsets, which is the most beneficial way. The smock is an ideal costume for the expectant mother since it entirelv conceals the figure for five or six months and for the remaining short period minimizes any unusual appearance. Russian or Peasant style smocks, cut on perfectly straight lines, the straight full sleeve gathered to a cuff, are easy to make and becoming to wear. The other most practical style has the raglan sleeve which gives such a good fit at the shoulders, the fullness held by smocking at front and back. Billie B. While you could weigh another 13 pounds there is nothing serthink about this answer later. Should I go with him or go on living as I am? BROWN EYES. The man is not a very honorable type or he would not want a 17-year-old girl to meet him secretly. The fact that he goes with other girls also proves that Jie is not deeply in love with you. I would not advi.e you to see him again unless your parents permit him to call in your own home. It seems to me it would be far better for you to have boy friends of your own age. A friendship between a 32 year old man and a girl of 17 is not natural.

out. Continue to drink milk and exercise. Go in for as many sports as you can. Zoe. To develop the calves of the legs, tense the muscles in the lower part and then stretch them by bending the foot and thrusting the toes downward. This stretching of muscles in the front of leg contracts those of the calf, much the same as the exercise in riding a bicycle.
