Gain Beauty
And keep it—as I did. ^
By Edna Wallace Hopper,
As a girl, I multiplied my beauty
until It brought me world wide fame.
After 40 years In a stage career, I
have kept that beauty. To the thou
sands who see mo daily I look like a
girl of If.
That Is due to cultivation and to
scientific care. Not to ordinary beauty
helps. I have spent years and for
tunes to secure the utmost science of
fers.
Now I have had those helps com
f blned so a down are applied at once.
And 1 am placing them at every wo
man’s call.
One is a super-crcam. Tt is supplied
by all druggists and toilet counters
as Ivina. Wallace Hopper's Vouth
Cream.
It is far more than a cream. It con
tains products of both lemon anil
strawberry. Also all the best that
modern experts know to foster, Hoften,
feed ami protect the skin. All In one
application. I cannot believe that
there exists another beauty help to
compare.
Aly Vouth Cream comes In two
t y | M'S cold cream ami vanishing.
They contain that same important In
gredients. I use the cold cream ns a
night cream, the vanishing In tbo day.
Never Is my face one hour without It.
The result Is a complexion for 40
years admired.
I wish I knew how to Induce all
girls and women to adopt this super
cream. It means so much to them. I
will gladly send you some to try tf
you will mall this coupon. Please do
that if you wish to know how much a
cream can do.

Your Problems
Q
Dear Miss Allen: When I was very
young I married a man with whom I
have lived for nearly 30 years and he
has abused mo in every way. We
have 320 acres of land and I never
get any money from it. I get some
chicken money occasionally. I have
;l.ooo of my own.
Can you refer me to employment
outside of kitchen work? He tells
me nearly every day that If I don t
like his treatment to go somewhere
else.
He Just had one team when we were
married. I feel like a wornout farm
implement which he would like to dis
card. I am not old, however, but
terribly worn.
Would it he safe to answer an ad
and go to the city to nurse an invalid
or children? There is .nothing but
quarrels at home and to think of
being away from it makeH me so
happy. BIN A MAY.
Since you are so unhappy and your
husband tells you to go If you do not
like his treatment, it seems to me It
would be a good idea to go, for a
short time at least. Very often a
farmer does not realize how much of
a partner his hard working wife Is.
Your Idea of taking a position as
practical nurse to an invalid or chil
dren Is very good. Instead of answer
ing an advertisement It might be
wiser to advertise for such a position.
In that way you could take the pick
of answers and also get an Idea of
how much demand there Is for your
kind of nursing.
I presume that after you have been
away a month or two your husband
will realize what you have meant to
him and he will want 'you to come
bark. He might not, however, and
so the only way for you to lay your
plans is with the prospect of sup
porting yourself from the time you
leave the farm.
Big Sister Is Overbearing.
Dear Miss Allen: I am a girl of 10.
My sister, who Is 14, Is treating me
so bafly that I am going to leave
home. My girl friend Is having the
same trouble. Please give us advice
about leaving. It is a shame the way
we are being treated. B. I.
Although you and your girl friend
are suffering because you have older
sisters who are overbearing, there Is
no use In planning to leave home. In
the first place you would be miser
ably unhappy because girls of your
age could not support themselve, and
In the second place yotl would be re
turned to your parents because you
are minors.
Talk to your parent* about your
unhappiness. They may also improve
ths situation when they understand
It by Insisting that your sisters cense

to interfere In matters which are the
concern of parents and not sisters.
Sometimes girl of your age want
freedom which would he harmful, and
their older brothers and sisters, who
have had more experience, say what
they can out of love and a desire to
protect. If that is the truth In your
case your judgment ought to tell you
your sisters are right. X realize, how
ever, that a difference of a few years
makes some sisters feel most superior

pleasant for the younger member of

The Christinas Goose.
A Christmas goose Is as recognized
a dish as is the turkey at Thanksgiv
ing. A fat, tender goose is very ex
cellent eating, hut it Is also very rich,
and for that reason it is well to be
gin the dinner of which it is the cen
tral point with some light, clear soup.
A knuckle of veal, with the proper
"soup greens," will make a delicious
soup which Is a good prelude to the
substantial meal to follow. A goose
should have an onion stuffing.

The Several Problem* Mother Graham
Presented to Madge.
At Mother Graham's ultimatum
concerning her coffee, the hospital
nurse hauled down her colors—there
was nothing else for her to do—and
prepared to make her retreat In as
dignified a fashion as she could
manage.
"Unfortunately, I cannot wait for
the coffee,” she said frigidly, turning
to me. "I must get back to my pa
tients. May I eount on you to ex
plain to Dr. Quinlan that I did my
best to get a report for him?’’
"Of course,” I said heartily, but
my mother-in-law struck Into the con
versation irritably.
“You’ll not be blamed for any
thing,” she said, "i shall talk to Dr.
Quinlan myself. Margaret, I didn't
order a statue of you as Hebe. Get
busy and pour me that coffee.”
With a look upon her face which
spelled extreme annoyance with my
autocratic mother-in-law, and sym
pathy for me, the nurse went out of
the door, closing it after her. and my
mother-in-law drew a deep breath of
relief.
“Starched up gas-pips,” she mut
tered, pulling herself up In bed and
avidly seizing the cup of coffee I had
promptly poured for her even as
the nurse was leaving. Then she
drank, thirstily, deeply, leaving the
cup empty.
“There! That a something like!"
she exclaimed. "Pour me another,
Margaret. What'e this? Katie's
toast? Well, thle is very nice, I’m
sure!”
Her good humor was returning
rapidly, augmented by her glee In
having vanquished professional au
thority as represented by the nurse,
and when she had despatched the
coffee, she declared herself ready to
get up and be dressed.
"But, Mother,” I expostulated, "the
doctor—”
•‘I Can’t Wait.—”
«‘But, Mother,’ nothing!” she ejac
ulated with such vigor that my fears
for her strength promptly vanished.
“It's Just because I don’t want the
doctor hemming and hawing over me
that I'm going to be up and dressed
when he gets here. Then he can t
order me back to bed."
There was a feverishness In her
manner which made me suspect that
there was somethlryj more than her
natural disinclination to remain In
bed behind her autocratic ultimatum,
and her next words confirmed the
thought in my mind.
"I can't wait around on doctors
and nurses," she said. "They d keep
i
me here for a week if I let them
alene, and I must be In shape to go
out of doors by tomorrow, or Tues
day at the latest.”
Tuesday! The day she already had
named to me as the latest date upon
which I was to bring her secretly
one hundred dollars!
Was her insistence upon these
things born of some hallucination re
sulting from her fall In the shrub
bery back of our old home next door
to the IJurkee place, or was there
something real behind her wishes?
If the latter—I drew a quick breath
of alarm. Something furtive, sinis
ter, must have come unexpectedly
Into her life, something which <h®
was frying to combat by herself.
That, of course, I could not permit
her to do. With a sudden warm rush
of sympathy for the indomitable spirit
housed in her frail old body, I re
solved that I would watch over her
secretly—I knew better than to be
tray any open Interest in her plans—
and be ready to step in between her
and any real or imaginary difficulty
which would confront her on Tues
day.
For the present, however, there was
nothing for me to do except to humor
her, and 1 murmured a soothing as
sent to her ultimatum.
"If you're as strong as your voice
indicates,” I said laughingly, "you
surely will be able to do anything
you wish by Tuesday.”
A Remand for Junior.
She permitted herself a reluctant
grin.
"There never was anything the
matter with my lungs,” shs said.
"And there isn't anything else the
matter with me. If you'll only helpj
me get out of here."
“I’ll do that, right now,” I, said,
making a virtue of necessity, and
during tlie next half hour I per
formed the duties of a hospital nurse
and a lady's maid in a fashion that
thought not professional, at least elic
ited commendation from my mother
in-law.
“There!" she said at last, when 1
had enseoned her in an easy 'chair
between the window, through which
the morning Sun was gleaming, and
the old fashioned fireplace In which
a fire of which I was proud, was
crackling cheerily. "Now I'm thor
oughly comfortable. Pleas® bring
that table a little nearer, and give
me my glasses. I’ll read while you
dress Kichard Second and bring him
in here."
I hoped she did not see the look
of dismay that came unwittingly into
my eyes at her words. I did not wish
her to see Junior while his face still
bore traces of the inflammation and
swelling which he had so mysterious
ly received upon the beach.
I knew that excited over his con
dition. Mother Graham never would
rest until she had gone over every
Incident of that excursion, and it
would b» odd. indeed, if she did not
discocer th« fact that the mysterious
Chinese, Lee chow, had made himeelf
a factor in the beach party.
