Things You'll Love
To Make
ppliouid Linge
III
If you are looking for something
"different" make some Appliqued
Lingerie. For each ornament shown
cut a two-inch circle of one color
and a one-inch circle of another
color. Hemstitch by-'hand or ma
chine the smaller one to the larger.
Cut three leaf-shaped pieces and join
them to the underside of the large
circle. If you use pastel shades of
green for the leaves, pink and lav
ender for the flower, the effect will
be most dainty. Hemstitch these
flower motives to the bodies of your
chemise to your gown or bandeaux.
With the use of other color combina
tions and simple geometric forms
charming Appliqued Lingerie is
made.

Problems That Perplex
Aoawercd by
BEATRICE FAIRFAX.
A Worthless Suitor.
Dear Miss Fairfax: I have been
going about with a mail for two
years. U always said he loved me
and I loved htm. My parents also
liked him. Now they are dead and
he has told me his family objects to
his marrying me because I am poor.
Ts there -such a thing as love? I
hardly believe so. If there is, why
did he listen to hts parents and
leave me heartbroken?
' SORROWFUL.
The man for whom you're mourn
ing isn't worth another thought, my
dear. He was cither a weakling
who hadn't enough strength and
courage to make a fight for you. or
a Tnercenary creature who was eas
ily persuaded to look for a richer
wife than you. I'm sure you are a
fine, sweet sirl, worthy of a true de
votion. The man who failed you
when you needed him so would have
made you miserable once you had
entrusted your life's happiness to
him. Try' to believe that you are
well rid of him and that you will
meet ' with a kinder fate than be
coming his Wife. '
Asklne the Girl.
Dear Miss Fairfax: I have been
going about with a girl for about
sis months and would like to know
if she cares enough for me to war
rant, my continuing. I have always
appreciated being in her company
?nd have learned to love her very
dearly.- but I cannot understand why
he dos not express herself as to
whether she cares for me or not.
',' , ANXIOUS.
. Suppose Instead of askinr me
whether or not your sweetheart
ares for you, you ask her. This
may be all she is waiting for. Why
hould you expert a delicate young
reserved and dignified, to tell you
of her devotion until it is asked
for?
Simple Arithmetic. '
Visitor: "To what do you at
tribute the fact that today you have
attained the great age of 102?" The
oldest villager: "Becoz Oi was born
a long time back, my boy." '
Brown Kje: 1 do not know any
thing about the company you wrote
to. The most helpful suggestion . I
can make is that you see the Wo
man's Exchange authorities. Their
place of business Is at 1517 Douglas
street, second floor. They might be
interested in your work.
H. O.: It is certainly not your
move. If the man wants to. know
you better he will find the way. . If
he doesn't, anything you might do
would not help your case. He would
only think you silly if you pursued
him. :
Tuncbug: I do not know the law
in Iowa on the subject you mention.
Write the attorney general of Iowa,
at the Des Moines capitol. He will
gladly give you the information
without charge.
Forgct-Me-Xots: Watch Ths Bee
fashions for spring styles. I would
not listen to gossip about the boys
you are going with. You probably
know them better than the people
who talk about them. Tou ask if
you should apologize for not kissing
some boys. I think you should
apologise to me for asking such a
March baking."
F. H.: Tou know if you read "my

lie put into mv hand one ot m
own big linen handkerchief;!, and the
humorous flouri.li with which lie
embroidered the act had the effect
which I fancy he secretly intended,
and I burst out laugiug instead of
crv ing.
Madge Is Puzrled. i
Dicky echoed my laughter, potent
ly relieved, but he held me close i
until my rather hysterical outburst
had erased. When 1 put up the
handkerchief to wipe away the tear
the laughter had brought lo my
eyes. 1 slipped off the bandage from
the iniured eve and forehead, and
heard Dicky give a dismayed gasp.
''God gracious. Madge 1 Have you
had a doctor? Are you sure there
isnt a fracture somewhere? Here!
Let me get up. This must be seen
to right away."
I put mv hands on his shoulders
rcstrainingly.
'"Listen." I admonished, purposely
using one of his especial aversions
in words. "1 have had a doctor.
The hou?e physician examined the
injury very carefully, and he savs
it is not scriou. In fact, the only
reason he wishes mc to stay here
for a day or to is on account of
the shock. And there was no rea
son for my wiring and frightening
you. You didn't much expect me
home until tomorrow. And now
it's my turn to ask questions, and
I warn you that I shall cive you
no mercy until you answer them.
How in the world did vou know
what had happened, and where I was.
and how did you get here so quick
ly?"
I wa indeed wild with curiosity.
Dicky must have had some impera
tive summons from some one who
knew exactly where I was. And I
knew of no one save the mysterious
foreigner whom I had met on the
train, who even knew that I wa
in the city. It must have been he
who had notified Dickey, and I paid
a mental tribute to his powers as a
PsJeuth. My efforts to elude him, of
which I had been so proud, had been
utterly useless. I listened with all
my . cars for Dicky's first words, and
was utterly taken back and amazed
when I heard them. ':
Dicky Explains. ' '
"Why, some woman, I couldn't
quite catch her name, called up the
Lefflevs. and asked them to send for
me, said she would call up again in
20 minutes. She must know the
neighborhood down, there, for that's
a correct estimate of the time it gen
erally takes for the Leffleys to notify
us, and for use to get to the tele
phone. If we ever get a 'ptone put
in but I'll not tantalize you with
remarks about that now."
He drew a deep breath and went
on:
"Anyhow, over I went, to hear a
most dulcet contralto voice sweetly
inquiring if I were Mr. Richard Gra
ham. And then she sprang the pleas
ant news that you had met with an
accident, that some friends had taken
care of you and escorted you to this
hotel, where I would find you. Be
lieve me, the next few minutes were
serious ones. I did the tallest kind
of lying of my life to convince Moth'
er that it was a most important bus
iness matter which called me into
town. I think she's still divided be
tween two theories one that you're
n some morgue, and the other that
some wicked luring woman has ask-
me to dine and dance with her
while you're temporarily off watch."
Mv thoughts were wniiine maoiy
bv this time. A woman had tele
phoned, a woman who said friends
had cared for me. and had taken me
tn th hotel. What Dicky took a
fresh breath and began again.
"Of course, there was no use my
tianrfincr o d Lil any spiel like tnat,
T r.M tier the truth, and she's very
much on the job until I get back
again. I promised to wire her as
soon as 1 touna you, pnrasing n su
Mother won t catch on, to anytmng.
Guess I'd better attend to that right

He rose, put me back in the chair

wall telephone.
"Take a telegram, pieasc, ne. ai-
rected crisply. . '
I had no ears for the short, simple
message he sent to Lillian. All my
thoughts were engaged witn a puz
zling question.
Why had the mysterious foreigner
not telephoned Dicky himself? ,
"Was it because he feared to trust
his voice to Dicky's critical ears and
perhaps knowledge over a tele
phone:

One Meal Will Tell
of a Finer Flavor
I JERE'S a worthy suggestion. Try
' one meal of Puritan Ham or
Bacon and learn how great is the im
portance of particular 'care in the
'selection of young, tender meats for
curing and smoking.
And judge also, how skillfully fine
flavor has been given these meats by
our Puritan method. That one test is
sure to make you a Puritan enthusiast.
But be sure, to say "Puritan, please," .
when you order.
