The king and queen looked back and saw a thick hedge spring up all around the grounds in the center of which their palace stood. Higher and higher rose the hedge, covered with 'sharp thorns, so thick that no one could possibly make his way through. Then the fairy waved her magic wand again and giant trees sprang up in the palace >ard, hiding the palace, so that only its towers could be seen from the nearby hills. "People will soon forget there was ever a palace here." said the good fairy. "The lovely princess can sleep safely until the end of the hundred \ears. when her prince comes to waken her." (Here i* a cloak, to be colored green, which the queen pul on when she left the palace. Watch color cut-outs next week for the coming of the prince). t Vote, right, >__ Her Parents Object. Deal-Miss Allen: I am IS.md t liave a young man friend who is a few years my senor. 1 like him very much and he has always treated me very nicely. My parent* do not w ish me to go about with him. and t do not feel that I can give him up. Please give me your advice. D. Your parents’ advice should guide you, my dear—at least for a few years more. t AVIiat Is their objection in (Ids young mah? Tliky probably have a good reason for wishing you to give Hint up. Parents, In all they do. arc usually trying to help their daughters find real happiness. Peggy's Problem. Dear Miss Allen: I am 19 and have been going with a young man for three years. Mv folks did not object to our marriage, which was to be soon. Now he does not write to me. 1 have written to him several times, but lie does, not reply. Should 1 con sider our engagement broken? Is it, wrong to so with other boy friends? PKGGY. If you are reasonably sure that the young man no longer cares for you and has stopped Milling to make you see how he feels, try to forget him and go with other young men. Not I.adylike to Flhi. Dear Martha Allen: I noticed that a. certain girl Mould like to know' what a refined young man thinks of a flirt, and embarrassing for the young man she is trying to flirt with. This applies whether it is done in a \ ill gar manner or in a so-called ladylike manner. A girl that will flirt is not very much of a lady. A YOt NCI MAN WHO KNOWS. Thank you very much for express ing your opinion of flirting. Puzzled Pally: You're a little trou ble maker, and your sister's fiance is a pretty poor sort to engage in a flirtation with you behind her hack. Better tell your sisier the whole truth and if I can read handwriting on the wall she will rid herself of a double croaser and philanderer before he causes her further trouble and dis tress. As for you, nothing good can be said of a girl who doesn't know' how to be loyal to her own sister. Brown-Kjed Susan: I would advise you to see a skin specialist. Semi me a stamped, addressed envelope and I will give you names of several. Don't be overly sensitive about some thing you can't help. Wear short sleeves and low neck if possible. I wonder if the skin spoOr are as bad as you think they are. Come In and see me. Perhaps I can help you. Polly: Certainty leave your high school sweetheart if you have found some one you like belter. You arc under no obligation to continue going with the former boy. Thank You: 1 do not bring about acquaintances through these columns.

For a few seconds after Lillian had settled back in her chair, ready to hear the things I wished to tell her. I found myself at a loss to begin. 1 had two distinct problems in the solv ing of which I needed her help. .Neither of them were mine, although both concerned me nearly. Hut one of th queere little intuitions which some times comes to me laid its inhibiting hand upon my lips as they were about to utter Hugh Oruiilland's name. So I pushed aside the story of his disap pearance and the advent of Lee ClioW for some future confidence. “it’s Mother Hrahain’s problem,” T began lamely at. lost, the while 1 was conscious that Lillian's keen eyes were searching my face. “It always is some other person’s problem, not your own,” she retorted with a warmth of affection in her tone which made mo flush: “But go on, spill it. What on earth has our doughty mother-in-law been doing now to get herself blackmailed?” 1 am afraid 1 was guilty of a wide gaping stare af. Iter, so' astonished was T at her prescience. “How—how—did you know?” I fal tered. but met a look as astonished as my ow n. "I didn’t know,” she said. "I was only attempting a bit of alleged humor. Suffering chipmunks, Madge, you don't mean to tell me the old girl—but go on. Tell the story your own way. but bo quick about it. I haven't been so excited since my first government case, years and sears ago. when T was only pdrd as sistant bell boy.” ‘ It s a Sweet Mess. I experienced a little thrill of childish triumph at having been able to disturb Lillian's poise, although I realized that if anyone save an in timate had been telling her the story, she would have evinced no sign of excitement. I began at Mother Gra ham's first encounter with the mys terious tramp, and gave every detail down to my refusal to permit my mother-in-law to fill In the blanks until she was stronger. Only one thing did I omit, and that was Lee Chow's .participation in the affair. That would mean the revelation of the mystery surrounding Hugh Gran Hand which 1 was not yet ready to mention. That the problem presented no errat 'difficulty to Lillian. I knew by her attitude. She leaned hack in her chair, her e\cs fixed steadily upon mlnp, her hands clasped lightly In her lap. If -■lie had been greatly puzzled. I knew only too well, the familiar attitude of concentration into which she would have fallen, elbows on knees, and chin eupitetl Into her palms. "It's a sweet mess.” she comment ed when I hail finished, "with the chances about 50-50 on the fellow l»e ing an impostor.

Along with a radio and a motor car. Of course I can't tell a thins until Mother Oraham tells her end of the yarn. Do you suppose she'll let, me listen in, if 1 don't clatter the ca: phones?" Lillian's Pleasure. "Oh! didn't I tell you that tbit story L retold to you at Mother Ora ham’s distinct request, or rather coin mand?” 1 exclaimed contritely. Lillian * face flushed with pleasure, a betrayal of emotion so rare w ith her that T gazed at her curiously. "The old darling!” she exclaimed. "That is n tribute, for she's about a« hard-boiled an old iconoclast as one would wish to find. Tell me—how old was site when she married the Dicky-bird’s father?" "I don’t know exactly,” T returned, "but I think she was in her early twenties.” "Be sure it wasn’t her teens?” Lil lian countered quickly. "You know what crimes in thfe way of early mar rlages those earlier generations used to commit and permit.” "I am positive she was o\er twen ty,” I returned, "for T have heard her say as much. But her exact age 1 cannot tell you.” "il in!” Lillian frowned, then shot another question at me. "Do you know the relative ages of herself and her husband?” "That I ran tell you,” T replied. “'TTe was at least fifteen years older, perhaps more.” "Any previous marriages on either side?” •'1 nc\er heard of any," T answered Special Announcement We purchased from the Brandeis Store the entire Bur gess-Nash Piano stock.
