Novels of Delight
Are Named
"The young girl and the old maid
are two new types which current fic
tion Is giving us," said Mrs. An
thony French Merrill in her Monday
morning lecture at Hotel Bltckstone.
"To the continental, the only type
of woman suited to fiction was the
kind for whom love was the 'whole
existence.' "
In Sedgewlck's "The Little French
Girl," both the new types sre found,
according to Mrs. Merrill. "The girl
Is an exquisite figure," said Mrs.
Merrill. "She went from a French
civilization so different, so fine, Into
a roistering English home where
everything was looked In the face.
You surrender to the book and are
taken with the little girl everywhere
she goes It Is a novel of delight."
Another novel of delight named,
was "Andorra," by Isabelle Sandy.
"The •wild beauty of the setting of
this story Is seldom equalled," said
Mrs. Merrill.

r”Your Problems |
_ j
Bride's First Dinner.
Dear Miss Allen: Will you please
tell me how to serve a simple dinner
in courses. Please answer as soon
a? possible, as I am to have com
pany and don't know the least thing
tttnuf serving. A BRIDE.
First, consider the number of
courses you are to har e, if you serve
n fruit or oyster cocktail, serve that
first with crackers.
Soup *is served next, also with
crackers, and may he your first
course instead of cocktail, if you wish.
Olives, celery and such relishes are
served with this course.
Meat and vegetables are your main
course. With them serve hot bis
cuits, or rolls or cold bread, If you
prefer. Have jelly appropriate to
your meat, pickled peaches and such
appetizers.
Salad is usually served next, though
In some parts of the country It ts
served first. Serve your salad on cold
■plates, and crackers, or salad wafers
with it.
Your dessert follows, with coffee
ut the cIosr of the dinner. Candled
Ringer and nuts are sometimes added.
Many people like to finish a meal
with crackers and cheese, snd some
with fresh fruit.
Have a bread and butter plate a
little to the left a glasN a little to
the right. On the right place the
necessary knives slid tire soup spoon,
If soup 1* to lie served. To the left
place the necessary forks.
Serve all dishes that are passed
from the left of the person.
Jf you have no servants, make the
ser'-irc as simple as possible. Have
everything on the table in order to
minimize delay and effort on the part
of the hostess. It Is much better to
have only a modest dinner and make
it. seem an easy task than to let your
guests know you are worried, trou
bled and hurried and bound to give
them a big spread.
Your linen should he spotless.,
It Battery: Chicago is shout 500
miles from Omaha. Fare with sleeper
is a little less than $25, one way. You
could doubtless drive through for less
tf you have your own car, hut If you
are short of funds and can’t afford to
take a risk, the train Is tho safer
choice. Via automobile you would
have meals for several days to pay
for, and at this time of your yon
might be held up on account of
weather.

A Wife’s Confessional
Adrle Garrison's New Phase of
REVELATIONS OF A WIFE
(Copyright, ,3924.)^
Why Madge Followed I.ee Chow's
Suggestion.
It was the awed sensation of being
n the presence of something* both
nomentous and terrifying that I
icrutinized the snapshot print of mv
self * which the mysterious Chinese
tad put into my hands, evidently with
he idea that it would explain his
tpylng into my windows, and his dis
concerted appearance upon the beach
where I was gathering firew'ood with
which to cook an outdoor dinner.
I remembered the print and its
aking vividly—almost too vividly, 1
old myself a bit shamefacedly as I
recalled the length of time which
tad elasped since it had been snapped.
Little Mrs. Durkee, her childish
maxing way had persuaded Major
ilrantland to take some snapshots of
Per with his favorite camera. I had
mme across the lawn just as he was
photographing her, and to my em
barrassment and his, she had
insisted that I he photographed
with her. 'When, the prints were
completed, he gave her, as I
supposed, all that he had made. She
offered me one, but because I knew
Dicky would not like me to have it .
I had carelessly refused it. But I had
remembered It perfectly, and T re
cognized it now although the figure
of Mrs. Durkee had been cut from
it leaving only mine.
My Boss Man—”
shoulders. "J.ee Chow must wait and
tee. I know now you Missee Graham.
Rest can wait. No hurry."
There was the deliberation of the
ages in his words, but there was none
n the alacrity with which he stepped
across to my heap of firewood and
stones, and stooping began to" gather
them up In his arms.
"Missee, Graham show Lee Chow
where she wants these," he said def
erentially.
"But X cannot let you do this," I
began. “Vou are not my servant,
and—."
"Missee Graham mistaken." the as
tounding man -firmly answered.
"Missee Gfaham now I-ee Chow’s
boss lady. He do all things for her.
Missee Graham not carry things like
these. Too heavy. Too muchee work.
No can do.”
He had arranged a really incredible
pile of the wood and stones in his
arms by the time he had finished
speaking and with his eyes on mine
stood waiting.
"Missee Graham please walk ahead
show Lee Chow where she wants
these.” he said "Lee Chow come
hack for rest himself.”
I mentally measured my will
against this astonishing visitor's and
lost ineontinenly. j
But as Junior and I walked toward
the plare we had selected for our
campfire while l.ee Chow strode
heavily a few paces hack of us,
could hot help wonderlnp; with un
easy amusement what Katie would do
when she comprehended the situa
tion.
p Mrs. E. W. fJunther has taken an
apartment at the Blackstone for the
winter.

“This reason Lee Chow climb
porch, look In window," the Chinese
affirmed in monotonous sing song in
flections. “Must see you lady in
picture, Mlssee Graham. No can talk
anybody else.”
“But why must you talk to me?”
I persisted.
He looked at me steadly for a few
seconds, and I had a sensation of be
ing weighed and measured. It was
with an odd little feeling of triumph,
as of an examination passed with
high marks, that I saw him nod his
head ever so slightly.
“Because you only person In
world my boss man cantrust." he an
swered, still in those fascinating mo
notonous accents.
My pulses accelerated distinctly and
my accents were breathless as I put
the question whose answer I had al
ready guessed:
“Who is your boss man?”
“You know,” he returned turpria
Ingly. You know w'hen Lee Chow
Bhow you little picture. But I tell
you. My bos* man Major Hugh
Grantland,”
There was no monotony in the ac
cents now. Ffe rolled the title almost
as if he had been an ancient man
darin pronouncing tha name of his
emperor. There was no more doubt
of him in my mind, so unconscious
ly devoted were his voice and eyes
when speaking of the officer whom
he had served.
What Will Katie Do?
My brain.flashed back to ths queer
Incoherent ietter J had received from
Hugh Grantland. an epistle wrhich had
made me believe that my old friend
suddenly had gone Insane. The ap
pearance of thie faithful servant of
his-^for I could not doubt that he was
anything else—put a different aspect
upon the matter. I felt it both my duty
and "an urgent wish to solve the mvs
tery of that letter. Had the solution
come to me without my volition?
“Have you any message for me
from Major Grantland?” I aeked
eagerly.
His eyes changed to their former
stolidity at once.
“No can tell now," he said with
Bn almost imperceptible shrug of his
