WILFUL OUIJA BY RUTH NEELY (Copyright, 1920, by Ruth Neely.) CHAPTER X It must be admitted that the con solations offered by Christian faith had in no way impressed Nora, al though this was due to no special ne glect in religious education, either on her part or those about her. As a child she had attended Sunday schools in the desultory way charac teristic of her desultory family life, and for a time during her high school years Nora had a period of great interest and activity in the work of a young people’s church or ganization, attending regularly the services incident to such member ship. But in truth, to whatever cause this failure was due it had meant nothing vital. She had not known this, of course, until the test came. Now she knew. Hope and promise of were to Nora’s type of mind insufficient in that they held forth hope and promise only. No body really knew. Well, yes, some claimed to. For instance, Rosalie. Very present and insistent at this time wag Rosalie, greatly advanced to the skilled circle of the elect, urg ing quie’ly, persistently and ines capably on her friend the philosophy of the higher life, founded —abso- lutely founded—on facts. On real inescapable and fully demonstrated facts. According, of course, to Rosa lie. How could Rosalie know? Rosalie now knew—she disclosed this to Nora one evening as they talked together in their apartment— because of messages that were being transmitted to her and through her. Rosalie had discovered ability as an automatic writer by accident, she told Nora. She had been seated at her desk —she was now in full charge of the local circle and main tained offices at the temple—when suddenly the pencil poised above her note book began to write. “I had been making some memo randum of new lecture dates and at first I thought I was jotting down some ideas of my own.” It was impossible to doubt the clear sincerity of Rosalie’s gaze, fix ed on her friend. “How do you know you were not?” Nora’s question was still somewhat perfunctory. The message of the ouija board announcing Roger’s death, later confirmed by the war de partment, had overcome her at the time But later she had set it down as—well, what? She did not know. But her old distrust permitted no place to the possibility tha tit really came from Roger. And yet— Because of this tiny, new born, “and yet;" Nora had come to listen carefully if dubiously, to her friend’s developments in the field of psychic research and spiritism. “It seems to me,” she said, while waitlne for Rosalie, who seemed hes itant to go on, “that the things which come through automatic writ ing, at least all that I have read In the magazines, are so vague and general that nobody could ever know who did write it—or ever care. “Honestly, Rosalie—you see, to me, if. I believe at all the thing would be so important that I can not help saying what I think—well, most of that stuff I read seemed just that way—just stuff. It was beau tiful and ethereal and ethical in a way, but It did not have any sense to it. I cannot see why it was worth sending. I am afraid I just cannot believe it—unless something really happens to make me.” “Perhaps, then, this will." Step ping to the table where lay the leather letter case, Rosalie drew out her note book, turned the leaves rap idly and pointed to a page. The writing in no way differed from Rosalie’s usual hand, with which Nora was familiar, except that it was more flowing and less negible. Nora began reading— “ Glorious is the change these psy chic revelations will make in your own life and those about you. What the older church has lacked you bring to suffering humanity, absorb ed in needless grief when not slav- DOROTHY_DIX TALKS ARE YOU A_GOOD WIFE? BY DOROTHY DIX The World’s Highest Paid Woman Writer (Copyright, 1920, by the Wheeler Syndicate, Inc.) DO you ever wonder If you give satisfaction as a wife? When you see your husband of an evening with the smoke of his cigar curling about his head, and a far-away look in his eyes, do you ever wonder whether he is thinking that the best investment he ever made i nhis life was when he bought you a wedding ring, or if he is spec ulating upon what the doing not to get his number on the day he undertook to be your meal ticket for life? If you are curious on this subject, apply these acid tests to yourself: Have you thrown away the salt with which you caught your fish? You baited your hook with good looks. You were always so clean, and fresh and dainty, with your hair combed so becomingly, and your nose nicely powdered, and your feet and ankles so trim and neat. Have you grown sloppy and slovenly and dow dy? Do you screw your hair up into a little hard knot, that would make the Venus de Milo look like a scarce crow, because it’s the easiest way to get it up? Do you wear run dbwn-at-the-heels slippers around the house and consider a much-be soiled kimono good enough to adorn yourself in for a mere husband? It takes a man with a superhuman tal ent for loving to keep enamored of a woman who looks as If she needed to be sent to the laundry, and whose kisses taste of cold cream. "You also baited your hook with flattery. You made the poor sucker who nibbled at that alluring tidbit believe that you thought he was the biggest, strongest, handsomest, wis est man in the world. When he ex pressed an opinion, you appeared to rhink it the utterance of an oracle You asked his advice and let him tell you how he would run the world if he was at the head of things. You ’aughed at his sentries and applaud ed his jests. Have you quit burning incense at his feet? Do you interrupt him in the midst of his best story to tell him that the woman next door has got a new hat? Do you remind him that you read the joke he has just told in the column of the funny pa per? Do you openly flout his opin ions, and criticize everything he does, from the way he has his hair cut, to his pronunciation? It must be a terribly disillusioning thing to marry a woman because you think you are getting an admiring ■■.udience in her, and then find out ■hat you have got a cricket on the dearth who is the president of the "DYE HIGH I ~ 3uy only “Diamond Dyes” Each package of “Diamond Dyes" contains directions so simple that any woman can diamond-dye ‘worn, shabby skirts, waists, dresses, coats, gloves, stockings, sweaters, draperies, everything, whether wool, silk, linen, cotton or mixed goods, new, rich, fadeless colors.

In the Current of Higher Life you have been borne through gates of truth and the current will carry many others. Pilot them and—” CHAPTER XI ROSALIE’S voice broke ’in and her impatient finger pointed to near the end of the page. “You do not care for that first part; it means much to me, of course—but right there! It broke right after the other message, just as I wrote it. “ ‘Give a message to Nora Sander son from her father Paul. He is here and has this to say; The past, your mother; all was pitiful but can be explained; it must not wreck, your future. Roger is not forever gone. As token, that which you wear against your breast.’ " Involuntarily, Nora clutched the spot over her heart where was pin ned inside of her lingerie a tiny chamois bag containing a locket with two pictures, one of Roger and the other of her mother. The locket, a cheap, flimsy affair bought by Nora’s mother before her marriage, had been laid carelessly aside by Mrs. Sander son, with the picture of her first husband still Inclosed, when she had made her second marriage. Nora had found the locket and taken possession. But she had never worn it until, notwithstanding her distaste for sentiment, the thought of her lover’s picture resting on her heart made irresistible appeal. Nora knew that nobody had ever seen Paul Sanderson’s picture since the death of Nora’s mother, nor the little photograph of Roger. Ashamed of what she felt was girlish silliness, she had kept the locket in its hiding place both day and night. In the privacy of the bath she removed it from one undergarment and fastened it to her fresh clothing. No one had ever seen the change. But, as it gradually dawned on Nora, there were other features of the message almost as striking.- She had never told Rosalie her father’s first name nor mentioned her childhood at all except to say that her parents had died while she was quiet small. To be sure, no family history is impossible to secure. But assuming sufficient interest, the task of such uncertain and tedious research was rreat. Nobody knew this better than Nora. Had she not ofjen seen her mother’s “dope book,” m which Ed and Mrs. Dulany had written and pasted data of all kinds concerning townspeople, even to inscriptions taken from the cemeteries? ' With a shiver of disgust at the recollection, Nora stared hard at her friend. Could it be, could it be, that Rosalie, too—oh, how hideous, how unthinkable! Rosalie was speaking. "It shocked me as much as it has you,” she was saying. "I never had, in writing, a message so evidential. “Os course, there was the one that came from Roger over the board. And this one is true, too, isn’t it, Nora? Tell me! It means, in away, almost as much to me as to you. It s true, isn’t it? You have something from Roger that your father meant? For answer, Nora reached beneath her blouse, unpinned the little bag from its soft resting place, opened the locket and laid it in Rosalie s IS “i knew it,” exclaimed Rosalie. “I was certain he meant something of Roger’s. But the other picture, Nora. Who is it?" “My father," said Nora. There was no misreading the sur prised delight on Rosalie’s face. She leaped to her feet, waving both hands above her head, clapping the palms together, her eyes glittering with ex citement. "That settles it.” Evidently oblivi ous for the moment of Nora’s pres ence, Rosalie rocked her tall, lithe figure back and forth, the embodi ment of joy and fulfilled desire. “I have the power! I can do it! I’ve gotten It myself! At last I’ve got ten it myself!” She was recalled to herself and surroundings as Nora suddenly arose, crossed the room swiftly and closed the door. (To be Continued) Almalgamated Order of Lady Knock er Dld you let your first baby put your husband’s nose so completely out of joint that it has never got in again? So many women never think of their husbands as anything but their children’s father, a convenience mercifully ordained by Providence to supply the wants of Johnnie, and Tommy, and Mary, and Janey. He has no rights where the youngsters are concerned, and if he has to oe worked to death to indulge them in everything their greedy young hearts crave, well, it’s a pity, but it has to be done. Are you one of these all-motner frives? Do you let your husband sit up alone while you hold the baby’s hand while it goes to sleep until some other woman begins to hold his hand? Are you merciless in sqiieezing money out of him for the children? Do you let him see that he is no real account in the family, and that your first thought is for them, not him? There are not many men so humble, and with so little self love, that they enjoy knowing that they are nothing but the cash-register in their homes, Are you a good housekeeper? No matter whether you have every other virtue under the sun, but are a poor cook, and keep a messy and untidy house, you are a failure as a wife. It’s just as much a wom an’s business to be thrifty and eco nomical and spend her husband's money wisely, as it is his business to make the money. What sort of a dinner d 0 you sit your husband down to at night? Did it come out of paper bags, or is it the kind of a meal that a man thinks cheerfully of all the way home? Do you buy finery that you cannot af ford, or do you keep within your in come? A man can’t think many nice loving thoughts of a wife when he realizes that she has sold him into bondage to milliners and dress makers, and that his whole life work goes to their enriching. Are you a good sport? Have you got the courage to smile, and buck your husband up when things, go wrong with him? Do you make' him feel that no matter what happens, he has got one loyal friend who will fight with him, back to back, to the bitter end? Or are you one of the whiners and complainers who are always fretting because they can’t have things like Mrs. Astorbilt, and who take the last bit of nerve out of man by telling him they don’t know why he can’t get along as well as some other man? Do you show your husband any appreciation? The average man doesn’t get a thing out of his daily toil except his board and clothes All the balance of it goes to the support of his family, and if his wife takes this tremendous sacri fice without one word of thanks, he is bound to feel that he is the goat that is offered up on the do mestic altar. Do you ever tell your husband that you realize all of this, and how wonderful and sublime you think his conduct is, and that he's one of the unsung heroes of the world? Finally, do you make your home a place of cheerfulness, of quiet, of peace and rest, a place to which a tired man may come and gather up new strength and courage for the next day’s battle? Or is it a place of nagging and fretting, and quar rels and discomfort that nobody would return to if he could help him self? Do you think the ind of a home you make is the realization dream of the bachelor you married? Just listen to the turn of the key in the front door tonight when he comes home, and you’ll have a close up, as our movie friends say, of how you look to your husband as a wife.

I'ELTON THS USE OF LEMONS—AS REM EDY FOR CONSUMPTION I am continually solicited for rem edies for the dire disease—known as tuberculosis in modern days, but called consumption in earlier times. A friend who knows of these con tinuous appeals thus writes me: "Put a dozen whole lemons in cold water, and boil until soft, but not too soft. Roll or squeeze until all the juice is extracted from pulp and rind. Sweeten the juice—be- cause sugar and syrups have a sooth ing effect on throat and helps great ly to lessen the cough. Use the drink freely. A dozen lemons a day would help if the acid does not hin der indigestion. Just keep it up faithfully. I know of two cases where the patients were abondoned by their doctors and both are still living after the lemon cure was faithfully used. One lady in particu lar was bedridden very low —had tried the drug store reliefs in vain. She not only survived but gained flesh—with lemons. She began in February, and in April had acquired strength to be weighed—the scales showing 140 pounds. She is in apparent good health and likely to live as long as the rest of us. If people would use less vinegar and use more lemons they will be benefitted.” Consumption is an insidious dis ease. It is called by some cancer of the lunge. We hear nowadays that there is consumption of the bowels —maybe it is cancer. There is, doubtless, some affinity between cancer and tuberculosis of other vital parts of the human frame. Consumption has been known to be handed down to succeeding gene rations. You often hear it said, “so bad she has consumption. Her mother (or father) died with it.” The truth is that a very bad cold —protracted and stubborn can bring on disease of the lungs. If the system is run down and the cold and cough neglected, and the sanita tion or ventilation poor, there are many chances for development of lung trouble. Sometimes it begins with catarrh —diseased tonsils are provocative. , x,. • When people understand that their bodies should be cared for like a costly vase or some delicate plant, as an individual duty, with personal responsibility for those who may come after them, we will take a long step towards the preser vation of health and long Anything which diseases the parent can be inherited by the P*’®" geny. The germ theory is generally accepted by scientists of today—and when we recollect that facial re semblance and shape of limbs —and even tones of voice, are so frequent ly transmitted from one generation to another, the inheritance of dis ease. seems possible and probable. THE AUTOIMtOFIT.B FATALITIES IN ATLANTA There are grewsome stories sent out by the Atlanta papers, where the killing of three grown persons, well known citizens, were either killed outright within thirty-six hours, or who died very soon after in hos pitals. x . Really automobiles seem to be get ting more dangerous than railroads. Os course there are a great many persons who are incautious at street crossings. Some do not hear, some times vision is defective. There is too little caution. Nevertheless it should be the duty of every city and town to stop reckless driving—where people are obliged to go to attend to their legitimate business. Some of the most awful automo bile tragedies ever chronicled have occurred in the town I live in. One has to see what such things stand for to appreciate the terrible conse quences of reckless driving. When I see little children playing out in the middle of the street, near my dwelling—l am always uneasy for them. Delivery wagons, with horses, were bad enough, but an au tomobile under full speed can do more damage than a dozen smaller and slower vehicles. Too many little boys are driving autos. Too many girls are fast drivers. Too many chauffeurs have tasted booze. No matter how careful one may be, there is danger of being run into by other reckless folks. It is a serious thing to ride in an auto and watch for accidents. The pleasure of joy-riding has in jected something like a speed-craze in the drivers —male and female, young and old. It is dangerous— and should be curbed or confined to set-apart speedways. I have a plan, that I have adopted in cities like New York and Wash ington. There are always policemen in evidence at crowded crossings. I have waited very often, not patient ly, but determinedly, until I could c-itch the notice of these officials Then I cnll them to see m< across Better wait a half day than be run down and injured. Young peonle cn be nimble and dodge. Old folks like myself, must be very careful, because they are slow of gait and short on hearing and eye sight. Make yourself known to the policeman.

All letters not s o exceed 150 to 200 words. My Dear Children: I have just received a letter from Yvonne’s' grandmother; you know our support for her is paid in quarterly in stallments, and this to thank us for that amount. I will quote it to you. Lovingly, AUNT JULIA. ‘‘We thank you infinitely—my little one and myself—for the sums of money that you have had the kindness to send us every three months. They have been a great help in supplying our ma terial needs, and, more than that, they have brought to us the great joy of realizing that there are generous souls far away from us, who remember the unfortunates of the war. ‘‘My little Yvonne now has a vacation from school, so I have her constantly with me. She is very well. Last month we had roseola. There was much of it in the neighborhood, but now we are complete ly cured. This sickness is not dangerous if one is not imprudent. Although my little one does not know you little ones, she loves you much, and not withstanding her young age she realizes all that she owes you. “Receive, dear benefactors, the assurance of my entire gratitude ” JULIANA DUPOY, Razac d’ Eymet, Dordogne. France. Dearest Aunt Julia and Cousins: Will you kindly open the door and let me in this hot afternoon? I am so lonesome I don’t know what to do, as I am at home all alone this evening. I have no brothers or sisters, and no mother, either, as my mother passed away August 6th, 1918, so I suppose you motherless children can realize how lone some I am. I certainly can sympathize with all the orphans, because I know how bad it is to be without a mother and father. Lis ten! How many of you cousins remember me? I am an old cousins, because I wrote to the Letter Box last September and my letter was printed and I received many nice letters from some of the cousins, t cer tainly am grateful to Aunt Julia for print ing my other letter, and I will thank her many, many times if she will print this one. Cousins, don’t you think she is a dear? If Miss Bertie E. Maloy, of Argyle, Fla., sees this letter I wish she would please write to me again and give .me her correct address, as I wrote to her and my letter was returned to me. I’ll not fright en anybody this time by describing myself, as I gave you all a description of myself in my ether letter. I don’t think there is much need in describing one’s self, because you can’t tell from a description how any one looks. 1 am seventeen years old, and would be delighted to hear from some of the cousins near my age.

I am a girl nineteen years old. I went with a boy three years and we broke up for some reason and every body tells me that he loves me, and he just stands about at church and watches me all the time every where he sees me. He don’t talk with any girls, and he always was jealous of me and when I talk with other boys he gets worried, looks like, and I love him. My mind just dwells on him all the time. There is a boy wanting to go with me, but I don’t like him. So please give me your advice. I don’t feel like I will every be happy without him. Do you thing he loves me the reason why he watches me so. Awaiting vour renly MINNIE L. W. It was Indeed too bad you and your boy friend parted company, for I am sure he still loves you, and you acknowledge you love him. Is there not some way you can mend the broken place in your love, and be sweet hearts again. If you are to blame you should not let your pride stand in your way of re conciliation. I think the young man loves you still. Dear Miss Meredith: We are two lovely girls coming to you for ad vice. I have blue eyes. Am in love WI U I , a a t the age of nineteen, ana he wants me to become engaged to him, but he hasnt’ been going with me more than two months, Do you think he could love me enough in that length of time to become engaged and later break the engage ment? I have brown eyes. I am in love with a widower and love him very dearly and he wants me to marry him, but he has five children. He is a Christian man and has a big lot and other propetry in Blun. Your advice will be appreciated. BROWN EYES. It depends largely whether "you” are in love with the widower. Five children are a lot to contend with. You must have the patience of Griselda, the diplomacy of a statesman and love enough in your heart for them to bear up under the strain of being their stepmother. If you can do all this, then go ahead and take a chance, but it is "rather risky.” I am a girl sixteen coming- to yqu for Some good advice. I have been going with a. boy twenty and he said he loved me dearly, but he has not been to see me in a month, but every time he sees me he smiles and waves at me and still writes to me and * still says he loves me. I am sure I love him, but he don’t know it. There is another boy coming to j eomwsfyiciNTtxucatOL I £ A L (mga Owe Their Health To Lydia E.

A Proverb Puzzle Can You Solve It? ■ wav M i- r 1 rijl ] j'iijw I I | ■’"'VP |l| > ® O(J1 ;i/. 3 7 The answer to The Tri-Weekly’s last puzzle proverb was “As Is the Master, So Is the Dog.” Did you guess it? « Here’s another. The little cartoon shown above illustrates an old, fa miliar proverb—one you’ve probably heard many times. Can you figure it out? Look for the correct answer in the next issue of The Tri-Weekly. House-Plants From Slips To grow a house-plant from a slip, take a half ripe branch and cut a slip three inches long. After taking off all the leaves except the upper two, plant it in wet sand, exposing only half of the slip. The sand should be kept moist. When the roots begin to grow, transplant the slip into a pot with ordinary soil. Plants such as oleander and ivy will root in water. see me and I’m sure he loves me be cause he is as true to me as my mother. There are dots of other boys, too, and they seem to be crazy about me. The people think I am real pretty. Hoping to see this in print, with many thanks. RED ROSE. The trouble with you is you have "boys on tl - brain,” and while you may be pretty you must use common sense to be at tractive. Men soon get tired of addle-pated women. And my ad vice to you is not to believe all they tell you, and put your mind on pursuits other than boys. You will be the winner in the end.
