I ain't never cooked and waited on no dog, and I ain't goln' to begin now!" "Oh, Jennie!" I almost wailed. "I don't like dogs either! I am afraid of them, always have been. ' But Mr, Page's mother must have things as she wants them while she stays. It won't be long," I added, the wish fathering the words. "Well, IH do it for you but not for her!" Jennie said, but with a frown "And, Jennie., please try not to lose your temper before her. I don't know how I should get almg- without you. You see I don t know Mrs. Page at all She lives out West and Is quite a grand old lady." "I guess she ain't eo grand or you wouldn't be so afraid of her yourself". Jennie quickly replied, cleverly read ing my fear of my mother-in-law. As I turned away I wondered if I had made a mistake In speaking to her; yet I would be loath to lose her. She vu a good servant, a good cook knew very well she would not like Mrs. Page, that her supercilious manner, the extra service she would require, would set Jennie against her. So I had spoken. As we kept but the one servant I had dispensed with, many little amenities to save her work and steps. Dinner ready she rang the table bell as - usual. Walter and I went into the dining room and waited. Jennie had put the soup on 'be table and I trembled for fear it would get cold. 'I'll go up for your mother. Perhaps she Isn't dressed. I told her to rest," I said to Walter .In answer to my rap she called: "Come in:" She was sitting stiffly erect In a straight chair, the 'log on her lap. "Dinner is waiting." I said. "Perhaps you didn't hear the bell." "I never pay any attention to bells. While I am with you kindly have the meals announced at my door," Mrs. Page answered, then rose majestically and followed me, Fido still in her arms. I wanted to tell her to leave him In the room : that I hated a dog In my dining room, but I said nothing. Jennie's eyes flashed when she saw the dog and even Walter looked surprised. A warning glance from me kept him silent; or it might have been the 'expression of his mother's face. - "My soup is cold. Please reheat it, ! the lady eajd, then turned to Jennie and added: "Never serve the soup until I am at the table. Cold soup spoils my whole meal, and my temper also." ' "You should have come when the bell rang." Walter said laughingly. "If you will stop to think, Walter dear, you will remember my aversion to announcing meals by means of a bell." "That's so. Mater! I had forgotten. 'ell, when the rest are busy I'll come to the door and say: 'Dinner is served, Madam! how will that do?" I was delighted to hear Walter joke so unconcernedly with his mother. It was very evident he was not afraid of her.' But Jennie who had just brought back the soup, giggled. "Servants should know their place!" Mrs. Page said looking at the girl severely.' "Jennie has a sense of humor," Walter replied as she went into the kitchen. Then : "she's rather spoiled.

Tomorrow A Visit to the Studio Beauty Chats By Edna Kent Forbea 4 A At times the scalp needs special attention In my chats to young mothers I men tioned the fact that the hair is almost sure to suffer during the months im mediately before and after the child is born. Your doctor will explain to you what particular elements this growing little organism is taking from the body, and of course, from the hair. I have not space to go into that here. Besides, I only want to tell you not to worry for this condition is temporary if you give your scalp the proper sort of care over this period. We' all know many women who have sacrificed its beauty because of children. I can only say that such sacrifice was never necessary, that proper care would have prevented it . . I don't think I can do any better than to repeat my directions for the general care of the scalp. All hair that is in weak or noor condition needs a tonic, ii a cniia is expected a tonic is imperative to supply these elements which the body is using up. Also the hair should he cut as short as con venient during this time, since short hair requires less nourishment from the body that long hair. Many women will not want to sacrifice the long hair that has been their pride. They need not do so, they need only cut off little for it will grow back as beautiful as ever in a few months. This applies to any woman whose hafr is in poor condition or who is in subnormal health. . ' The hair should be thoroughly brush ed and combed a couple of times a day, while every day it should be given a brisk massage with the fingertips Three times a week a good tonic should be used, once in three weeks the head should be shampooed, the scalp XMAS GIFT FURNITURE WELDON'S Formerly Heed Furniture Co.

being first thoroughly rubbed with oil several hours before, or the night before. Dandruff and poor health almost always go together, therefore even oily hair needs this oil rub. Polly, You will avoid the regular manicure if you give the nails a few minutes of extra attention each day. If this is done a professional manicure is only needed once in four or five weeks. Keep, the skin from growing over the base of the nails and polish frequently. Use the file at the corners to retain the rounded or pointed, tips, and if a little attention will keep them in shape continue it; but there will always come that time when the thorough work will be needed which should not be oftener than four weeks. It is the neglected or abused nails that re quire the weekly manicuring. Niartna M.
