In a few seconds came in again as
briskly.

pod. "So I have a chance to draw

Itrrtehed lazily out, and put her

grasping the opportunity to relax
the nervous and physical tension
which is hers, when on a case,
t *‘l Don't Knvy You!"
j "It won’t take long." 1 promised.
Then 1 plunged into the story which

you, what I virtually have promised

She halted abruptly and finished
lamely, “the handicap which natural

gaining Dicky’s approval of my task,
or of keeping him in ignorance of It.
appeared hopeless from whichever
angle I looked at It. But It made me
furious to think that even such
friendly eyes as Katherine's had
guessed my dilemma.
With a contemptuous mental com
parison of myself to the ostrich, I
hastened into confused speech.
“Watch That Girl Carefully.”
“There are so many things for
which i'll have to depend on you.”

“I'll watch her. never fear." Kath

that in her voice which made nie
look quickly, furtively at her. It
was as if she knew or suspected
something she was not yet ready to

sened by her quick turning of the
subject.
"By the wav. when do you expect
your mother-in-law?” she asked.
“I promised her I’d go for her to

She held up her hands wllh a the

“My sainted aunt!” she exclaimed
“Cmi t you possibly put her off for

\ Damsel in Distress.
Dear .Miss Allen I am merelv an
other damsel in distress, coming to
you with a perplexing problem of the
heart. It isn't really a problem, but
1 want to know If you think I am un
leasonable in asking to be forgiven
when I have forgiven the same fault
w illingly in another.
I have gone with a young man for
three ye » s. rare a great deal for him
and aiu practically engaged to him.
While neither of us has altogether
excluded other friends, we have not
had many dates with other people. In
the time that 1 have been going out
with young men (about four years)
three boys, besides this young man
have each kissed me once. I am not
proud of this record and T realize my
mistake. But the young man is angry
and hurt beyond measure. Yet he has
kissed other girls and told me about
it. It wasn’t easy for me to forgive
and forget, but I did. Am I unreason
able in asking that I be treated as
charitably? It Is the old question of
“should a woman tell?" I am inclined
to think not. lie can't see that my
forgiving him has anything to do with
his forgiving me. Please tell me what
you think. II. A. M.*
T think you are altogether reason
able in expecting to be treated wit Si
the same lenience you have shown
your friends, and that lie is unreason
able in being "angry and hurt beyond
measure.” Jle has no ground what
ever for complaint, for your fault was
a comparatively trivial one and not
committed while you were engaged
to him. I don't blame you for regret
ting you confessed it to him. His
lofty ignoring of the theory of re
ciprocity Is one of those exhibitions
of masculine egotism which women
find so exasperating.

that vinegar put into a tea kettle
will dissolve all lime. It does not re
