'WALTER BRINGS MI8S RALSTROM ; HOME ! Chapter 17 Walter "was not as particular about getting home promptly as was the case when his mother first came; And Grace Harter was once again the one who told me why. She said: "It's a disgrace the way yon stay at home and let Walter run around the country with that Ralstrom girL" "Ride around, you irean, don't you?" I asked, trying to speak lightly. I had mistrusted he was with her, hut doubt la on thing; certainty another. I was proud. I would not let Grace Harter, a-woman who acknowledged she once had thought of marrying Walter, see I was Jealous. "What's the difference! I declare, Doreen, you're the mast accomodating wife I ever knew. That girl's too attractive. When it's too late you'll wake up." "If he went with you or Claire, there wouldn't be so much danger?" I had purposely stressed the "you.' "Claire's safe! I tfont know about me. But he's not with me. He's with

that Ralstrom girL He's an artist,

Doreen, and he sees her only with, his artist eyes. I don't trust her, Doreen. There's something slinky about her."

That was just the word to express

Helen Ralstrom: Slinky! But I only

laughed at Grace, told her she was jealous if I wasn't, and declared I

really was more jealous of her than of Helen. "You're not slinky, Grace, but you're suave." I told her. "And I think it the more dangerous quality." I "All right! I've warned yon.", she said when she left. "Your onhappiness be on your own head." Soon after this conversation Walter did come in to dinner. "Have you telephoned the studio?' his mother asked, much to my surprise. "No-he always leaves by five." "1 should call and iee If I were you. I don't approve of a man being absent from hLs homj at meal time," she said, "it is a bad habit." She seldom criticised- Walter and I felt quite puzzled as I went to the telephone. Could she have heard Grace and me talking? Had she heard any rumors? She had one or two old friends in town whom she called upon. As I expected I got no reply. "Ill doesn't answer," Central said after ringing some time. "He's not at' tho studio," I said, "We'd better have our dinner. He may be late." "Very well," she replied coldly. Yet I noticed she looked worried all through the meal; and she made scarcely no response to my attempts at conversation.

We sat in the living room, she with

Fido on her lap, I, sewing. Nine o'clock struck, then ten, and 11. Unless she was out for the evening she

always retired at that time, but she

still sat on. Just as midnight struck we 'beard- a

car; then, after a moment the elevator

stopped. It was Waler perhaps. The door bell rans he always let himself In with the aey. I hurried to

let him in, thinking ho had forgotten

it. I feu back gasptng He was white as a she ei. ' and supported by Helen Ralstrom, who seemed in a fainting condition. "Don't av-tc questions, Doreen. Had an acident. Help mo get Helen on to the couch.Without -a word I did as he asked, and together we carried her into the living roota. As we entered the door I heard hiJio mutter: "The Mater 1" and knew 13 was annoyed she was up, that she saw him. Mrs. Paga never spoke until we had laid Helen on the couch, and I had removed her hat and coat Then she said: "Walter, please explain." "There's nothing to explain. I had a slight accident. Miss Ralstrom has sprained her ankle I think. She faint

ed, and as B'e were nearer here than

her home I brought her here." He had taken off htr shoe while he talked. "Please call the doctor, Doreen."

"You call lim, Walter, I'll remove

her stocking; and put on a cold com

press until Imj comes." He flashed me a grateful look but his 'mother sat in stony silence, disapproval in every line

or her aristocratic face. It's long paist your usual time to retire." I told her. "It isn't necessary for you to wpit. I can Attpnrt tn MIra

Ralstrom." 3ie had cried out when I took off her stocking, but now lay quiet her eytwi closed. Yet I had a feeling that she was watching me. "I shall remain," Mrs. Page said, and strangely I wi glad. I did not want to be alone witli them not just then. Tomorrow Ai Tower of Strength

the arms. Sometimes the fact woman's elbows are even dimpled.

A great writer on feminist subjects says that elbows and toes are never beautiful. I don't agre with him at all. Toes would be beautiful if they were

not cramped in modern pointed shoes,, while as for elbows they are only ugly

when grimy and bony, and they needn't1

he either. The treatment is the very simplest sort. First, scrub the elbows with very hot water and a good qual

ity, mild soap. Use a. fairly stiff scrubbing brush. Then rub the elbows with a little cold cream or olive oil, working the oil. thoroughly into the skin. I advise this to be done at night because if you go about now wearing a dark dress you will rub an extraordinary amount of dye into the oil saturated akin. The elbows will tage up a remarkable amount of oil. This treatment can be given every single day until your arms are as perfect as you could wish. Gradually, as the oil or cream

softens and feeds the skin, so the elbows will stay wean with the ordinary washing every day If olive oil i3 used the thinnest elbows will begin to look plump and rounded. This is the most satisfactory sort of treatment to give for the results can be seen instantly. You need not wait months, you will see a decided improvement after the

first scrubbing. Vanishing cream Is splendid for the

elbows, particularly if used after they

have been scrubbed and before they;

are powdered.

should do to keep your skin ciear. you should have a perfect digestion, also

CARE OF THE ELBOWS If you have gximy elbows you have a problem that "will stay with you winter and summer. One of the advantages of being fatp (the only advantage in my opinion), is that the elbows aren't the grimy sort but nice and cushiony and soft just like the rest of
