For Freckled, Rough
or Muddy Complexions
The freckling, discoloring or roughen
ing to which delicate skina are subject
after exposure to wind or aun, often ap
pearing In early spring, may readily be
gotten rid of. Mereoliied wax, spread
lightly over the face before retiring and
removed in the morning with soap and
water, completely peels off the diafigured
skin. Get an ounce of the wax at any
druggist's. There's no more effective way
of banishing freckles or other cutsneoua
defects. Little skin particles come off each
day. ao the process doesn't even tempo
rarily mar the complexion, and one soon
acquires a brand new, spotless, girlishly
beautiful face.

The Way Madge Smoothed Leila
Fairfax's Troubles.
Mother Graham fulfilled my
phophecy and "bossed Katie around"
so successfully on the tomato can
ning job that by late afternoon of
the next day the cans of Mjs. Dur
kee's scarlet tomatoes were all
cooled, labelled and ready for trans
ference to the dark recesses of the
cellar.
I put in a hectic day myself, for
even ly minimizing the work at our
own house and giving Alfred his
meals with us thus doing away
with two separate processes of
cooking there was enough to be
done in the two houses and the care
of Mrs. Durkee to keep me busy
from morning until night. Alfred,
of- course, was a great help with
his mother, aiwl Dicky had volun
teered to escort Leila and her suit
case from the studio she and her
sister shared out to Marvin bu the'
evening train. It was, of course,
only the most natural of courtesies,
but I could not repress an uneasy
little jealous thrill of which I was
deeply ashamed at the readiness with
which Dicky undertook the errand.
This feeling had nothing to do with
Leila, but with the fact that Ldith
Fairfax shared the-.Studio.
I had kept the exact time of
Leila's arrival from her prospective
mother-in-law, for I wanted the girl
to have her dinner before she went
over to take up the task which I
foresaw would hold many tangible
and intangible difficulties for her.
Dicky, according to my instructions,
brought her straight to me, and
after removing the dust of travel I
took her down to the dining room,
where Katie served us the first help
ing from the dinner scheduled for
the family in another quarter of an
hour.
"Some otic has to stay with Mrs.
Durkee all the time, at least within
call," I explained as I caught her
look of surprise at our tete-a-tete
meal. "Alfred and Mother Graham
are with her now, and when we have
finished eating -you and I will go
over and relieve them. Dicky, of
course, will wait to eat with Alf."
Leila's Confession.
"Oh! -Are you going over with
me?" she queried and there was
such undisguised joy and relief in
her tones that I suspected she was
dreading he- next two weeks as
sincerely as her prospective patient
was.
"I I want to ask you some
thing," she said nervously when we
had finished our dinner.
"Yes, dear," I replied encourag
ingly. I slipped my arm around her
as I spoke although my acquaint
ance with her hardly warranted the
familiar caress1. I am usually chary
of intimacies unless with those I
have known and loved for a long
time, but there was something
pathetically appealing in the dark
eyes looking into mine.
"Do do-you think Mrs. Durkee,
really wants me?" she began fal-'
teringly, then evidently swept by
some urgent feeling she hurried into
rapid speech. "You see, I have no
way of telling. Of course, Alfred's
first thought was naturally for me
to come to his mother, and I could
not refuse him. And I do want to
come. I'd just love to take care of
her. I'd wait on her hand and foot,
but I'm so afraid that Alfred has
urged her so that she couldn't re
fuse him. I( would be perfectly
awful if she didn't want me, and
had to have me around when she is
helpless this way."
Madge ms Literal.
I interrupted her ruthlessly. '
"Do you know what I think?" I
asked lightly, giving her shoulder
a caressing little squeeze. "I think
you're being a very foolish little
irL and are giving yourself a great
deal of unnecessary bother. You
see, I happened to be present when
Alfred said he thought you would
be glad to come, and his mother ex
pressed herself as delighted, said
"there was no one she would rather
have than Leila."
"Oh I Did she really?" The girl's
delicate face was suffused with
happy color. I felt like rushing
over and shaking my obstinate little
neighbor for not realizing the treas
ure of an affectionate heart which
was offered her.
"She really did," I smiled, "and
the only objection I heard her make
was to the effect that it was an im
position to ask you to put off your
own work to come to her."
"I had nothing to put off." A quick
shadow flitted over the girl's face,
and I guessed that her lack of op
portunities to earn money hurt her
cruelly. "And I am so glad she
wants me. Tell me, please, just
what there is to do."
I outlined briefly the treatment
Dr. Gibson had ordered, then un
folded the household arrangements
Mother Graham and 1 had already
planned.
"You are not to do any cooking
except the things Mrs. Durkee
wants, and we wiil send over most
of those, she won't be on any spe
cial invalid diet after today. You
and Alfred will take your meals
with us, and some one of us will run
across and sit with her while you
are over here at your meals.- Now,
not a word. It is all arranged. But
there is one thing which is going to
be very trying I am afraid. Mrs.
Durkee was right in the midst of her
canning and preserving, and there
is a great deal of fruit on the place
which she is afraid is going to
waste."
"Oh-h!" Leila carolled like a little
girl. "That's just what I love! I've
been just, crazy to fix Alf some of
the jams and things my old black
mammy taught me, and now I'll
have the chance."
I turned my head to hide a dis
mayed but whimsical smile. I
foresaw fun ahead for the dis
interested onlooker in this contest
of canners.
