NO HOUSE LARGE ENOUGH FOR TWO MISTRESSES Chapter 53
in ine oajs iouowing nailers an-1 nouncement that his mother was toj
make her permanent home with us I :scarcely thought of anything else. I liked her much better than I did at first, but as a visitor she might be far more agreeable than she would be -as a. member of the family. The more I thought of it the more disheartened I "became. If she paid part of the expenses she would feel she could interfere even more than she had; discharge help and so on. Finally I determined to have a good talk with Walter, then one with her if I could get up the courage. "You see." I told Walter, "she has been accustomed to live very differently, more style and better service. We are sure to clash if there are two mistresses which is what it will amount to." "Don't cross bridges until you come to them, Doreen," he answered in his careless way. ' I don't see but you have gotten along all right, and she's been with us months."
"Visiting, yes. It will be very different when she feels she is one of the
family. Then the larger apartment
more servants, means more care for
me."
"It s time we lived better! I m a fairly successful man. Doreen, and a
man has to live up to his success. "I just know it won't work!" I de dared. "What do you propose, may I ask'
That I tell mother she can't come?" Me was angry, the little veins on his
forehead swollen.
"No, but there must be some way so v 9 won't clash. If she will board with w.s .pay her board if she like?, and have I'pr own rooms, a private maid if she
ishes for herself and Fido, I think we would get along all right, just as well
;is now. But the other way, never! No liou.e was ever yet big enough for two mistresses, and I do not propose to -iep aside, even for your mother." I had spoken earnestly just as I felt. "Why don't you propoe that scheme to her?" he asked. "T shall unless you prefer to do so." "Me! Not in a thousand years! You women-folks are a queer bunch.' Fix it up to suit yourselves." He turned away. For him the subject was settled. Should I talk before she left or upon her return? I decided it would be
fairer before she left, although I hated to do it; knew I should stammer and be frightened when I began to speak. It was a hard thing to do with Mrs. Page. I could expect no help, no sup
port from alter.
"May I talk to you for a few min
utes?" I asked her. She had commenced to pack, refusing my assistance, as she had to unpack, saying:
"I prefer to do my own packing.
Then I know where things are."
"Yes, I can listen and go on with
my packing," was her not very encouraging reply. It isn't easy to talk seriously to a person whose mind is occupied with other things.
"I have been thinking what sort of
an arrangement we could make so that
everything may run smoothly when you live with us," I began, my voice not quite steady, my knees shaking. "You know, from long experience, that
no house can have two mistresses, and be satisfactory. Maids will not take
orders from two people, and in many
other ways it doesn t work out and "You are telling me you don't want me to come?" she fairly glared at me. "No, Mrs. Page, that was farthest from my thoughts. But I have a plan I think will obviate all trouble, make your being with us a comfort to us
both." I never in my life had tried so
hard to be tactful, but the frown didn't leave her face. Her lips were drawn in a straight, thin line. "Let me hear that plan." It was an order.
"We will take a larger apartment, where you can have a sitting room and
! bedroom. Instead of paying for maids land helping with the expenses as you i proposed, you pay us a stated sum. jThat includes everything, unless you
wish a personal maid besides. I will manage the house just as I do now, give the orders and so on. I am 6ure, when you think it over, you will agree with me that my plan is a good one; the only way in which we can be comfortable and happy." I had said all I had to say. As Walter after remarked "now it was up to her." Tomorrow Mrs. Page Gives Doreen No Satisfaction
Beauty Chats By Edna Kent Forbes
Heart Problems
Dear Mrs. Thompson: Every summer I go to visit my sisters who live in another city. Two years ago while there I met a young man whom I liked as a friend and ever since then I have been going with him when I have been in that city. He has come to this city to see me a few times and we correspond regularly. As I am planning to visit my sisters again next summer a friend of mine said that I was running after this young man. Does it. look that way, since I go there every summer? M. E. To visit your sisters would not be running after the young man. Disregard what your "friend" said.

too sharply pointed, as though to show the world how long a point could be filed and kept, and a brittle brilliancy of polish will meet your eyev That's from not enough wholesome 'neglect. So, if you do your own nails most of the time, ad most of us do, take a warning from both extremes. Once a week is enough to manicure your fingers the daily treatment consists only of pushing back the skin with an orange wood stick when the hands have been washed in warm water of a quick polish with your buffer a touching up of the ends with the emery board twice during the week and if the naila are dry or old rubbing in oil when it senis necessary.
If you don't know the value of oil for the nails here's a bit from a recent letter: "So my arm was in a sling six months and my hand of course almost useless. I didn't manicure that hand much, it was so awkward, and I massaged my face daily with cold cream, using my good hand. Now the nails of that hand with which I worked are younger looking and prettier than the nails of the hand that rested "
The letter was on another subject, but it shows the value of oil, for daily the "good" hand has its nails soaked in nourishing, softening cream. Shape your finger nails prettily with a file, or have them done by a professional. Then keep them so yourself by a little care now and then.

Sage tea will darken the hair and with a shade of light red such as yours it should cause it to be somewhat of an auburn tint. F. D. D.
