Dear Children: I wrote you such a long letter last time that. I

Remember, you h»ve only two months in which to finish your
Christmas gift to an American child. Lovingly,

P. S.—Rosie Mae Holliday, please send me your address so I

Dear Aunt Julia and Cousins: I want to
| tell you all what a nice time I had Satur
' day. Two of my friends and myself went
,to n cotton gin and watched them gin
cbtton. We went into the fireroom first.
The fireman showed us tlie furnace. I
have never sen such a large one in my life.
He showed us the boiler next. We could
see tlie smoke going through the pipes. It
certainly was interesting. He showed us
the engine and all the large belts that
turned the wheels. We then went upstairs
and watched the cotton and seeds separated.
After the cotton was separated it went
through a large pipe and a man was getting
it ready to be pnekeed. After it was
pafked it went into a large box. Some men
were getting the bagging ready to put on
tiie cotton. About this time my friend’s
sister called her and we had to go. All
you cousins write me. I am nn old cousin,
and will be glad to hear from all of you.
I guess you would like to know my age—
it is 13 years. Your cousin,

CHAPTER XXXIX
IT was ten days later that Rosalie
Gates wired Dr. Hathama, who
had temporarily established a
small private hospital at Chi
cago, to come at once, If possible.
“Case critical,” the message said.
It was. Nora had gone about her
work as usual. But in the ten days
she had two narrow escapes from
“accidents,” of which Rosalie learned
each time by merest chance. First
she almost stepped down an elevator
shaft, the door of which was “open
by accident.” Rosalie turned sick
and cold when a stenographer In
Nora’s office told her by telephone.
“A man just barely caught her, but
she did not seem a bit frightened,
really,” the girl said.
The second “accident" had occurred
when Nora slipped and fell in front
of a huge motor truck. She had
been slightly bruised and the driver
insisted on accompanying her home.
By chance, Rosalie met them. Per
haps other things equally sinister
had happened, of which she never
heard. She had searched with care
ful stealth all Nora’s effects; noth
ing suggestive of danger was to be
found.
It was evident that with the cun
ning of a sick mind, Nora was plan
ning to avoid —doubtless for Rosa
lie’s sake—any method of self-efface
ment which would not permit at least
a possibility of doubt as to its being
voluntary.
Nora did not talk of Roger or of
anything connected with their past.
And she avoided, with a success that
showed her intention to be unchange
able, any meeting—which Rosalie
tried hard to arrange—with Dr. Find
lay. It was indeed upon Newton
Findlay that Rosalie relied for ad
vice during this anxious period. He
had never reproached her. There
was nothing, in his knowledge, to
merit real reproach. He believed she
had acted in good faith.
But Rosalie was now too troubled
to make any effort to retain even
Newton Findlay’s good opinion.
“Would It help, do you think, if 1
were to tell Nora that message I got
was in reality my own, or that I
moved the board those other times,”
she asked him.
“Did you?” asked the specialist.
“I cannot answer ‘yes’ or ‘no.’ The
matter is not that simple. But I
will willingly say I did to Nora if
it would ease her mind.”
“What’s the use, when she had
that table message?” answered Dr.
Findlay. “I was there. But try it,
try it.”
Nora actually smiled, a rare occur
rence for many months, when Rosa
lie came forward with her “confes
sion.”
“You’ae a good friend, Rosalie,”
she said, “but it’s no use now. I
know better. The truth is he—he is
calling me. And every minute I am
delayed—But don’t look like that,

BY MARGUERITE DEAN \
(Copyright, 1920.)
WHEN you are thin and thirty—• .
Take care lest you be fat '
and forty— j
Instead of slim and sixty!
That is the moral of a story which |
will interest at least 75 per cent of <
the men and women in New York
City—the regiment of the rotund, the j
companies of the corpulent. For them i
the story has been written, the ’
story which its author, Antoinette j
Donnelly, has called “How to Re
duce: New Waistlines for Old,” and
which is published today by D. Ap- 1
pieton & Co. The fatties may as well ,
take Miss Donnelly’s word for it; in
a recent competition with Dr. J. D. :
Robertson, Chicago’s health commis- 1
sioner, she reduced twenty-five male !
victims of obesity in less time than ■
her opponent could perform the same '
service for twenty-five feminine .
heavyweights.
“Thirty is the dangerous age,” she
begins her good advice to avoirdu
pois. “It is the turning point in
many a slender career. It is the age
when waists generally begin to
spread and thicken. It is the age
to decide your figure shall have no
more birthdays. It is the age to
decide whether you are good for
thirty years or for thirty years more.
“It is the age when the wise young
man provides against a possible ob
structed view of his feet and a com
plementary slowing up of his mental i
processes ’ and the useless waste of;
years accumulating and ridding one- |
self of superfluous flesh.
“It is the age when the woman In
business and the professional woman .
must decide whether she is willing ,
to be superseded by a younger per- I
son or remain as mentally and physi- ;
cally active as that younger woman. I
“It is the age for the woman at ;
home to make a critical appraisal of ■
herself—for the very nature of her i
life makes the home woman more I
susceptible to the wiles of Mr. Adi
pose—and to decide whether she shall
get fat on her job in mind and body
or keep up with her progressive mate
for years and years to come.
“For, after all is said and writ. I
man is as old as his figure! And !
woman more so!
“Since fat contributes in large per
centage to the old age bugaboo, how
then shall we prevent this wholesale i
sacrifice to old age and rotundity? j
By watching the diet and by suf- \
ffeient daily exercise to keep the ;
weight at approximately the average
weight for thirty, the age of full
maturity.”
Each person, as Miss Donnelly
points out, has a normal weight pro
portioned to his or her height. And ,
the scales won’t lie, although a high
priced corset may camouflage. So
her advice is to get on the scales
often and get on a diet if you are
imitating Hamlet, whose own mother
called him “fat and scant o’ breath,”
dear Rosalie. I will be patient. Don’t
worry about me.”
The answer from Dr. Hathama was
a disappointment. “Have critical
case on hand here,” he wired. “Send
your patient on if necessary.”
It was impossible to send Nora
alone, but Rosalie could accompany
her. How, though, w'as she to be
persuaded to make the trip.
CHATTER XI.
A PLAN of action finally came
to Rosalie and when it did
she opened the subject with
out delay.
“I know, Nora, that you are try
ing to communicate with Roger,”
she said. “The medium you called on
has told me so. I know her well.
But she has no power—if there is
such a thing as power.”
Poor Rosalie! What an admis
sion for a supposed adept, deep
versed in eternal mysteries.
“Yes,” assented Nora listlessly,
“that medium is a fraud—like my
poor mother. Did any one ever tell
you about mv mother?”
Rosalie nodded. “Yes, long ago—
but thit is not the point. There are
people, but only a few, who have
really penetrated any of these se
crets. The greatest psychic I know
is in Chicago right now. He can
tell you much that you want to
know:—about Roger and yourself.
Will you go and see him?”
“What’s the use, dear Rosalie? I
know already.”
“Then go—just to please me,
Nora. I am going with you. Won’t
you, Nora?”
It wag not in Nora’s nature to re
fuse such earnest pleading when it
was in her power to comply. She
promised, and in feverish haste
Rosalie completed arrangements.
The next night they were on the
train. In Chicago they awaited an
appointment with Doctor Hathama.
On the trip Nora had shown a
growing excitement, in strong con
trast to her recent apathy. She ate
nothing, but this was no new thing
for she had lived almost without
food for several weeks. She was
very weak, very white, and piteous
ly emaciated, but her speech was
freer, more vehement, than for many
days.
At times he started forward and
seemed about to answer an unseen
speaker.
“I know what you think, Rosalie,
but I am not insane. It’s that Roger
is coming nearer to me all the
time. It wil not be ong now, dear
Rosaie, unti I see him. I am not
afraid, that is, not much, except—
well —this man, perhaps, can tell me
things about that shadowland where
lam to meet Roger. I will be glad
to see your Hindu Rosalie.”
Not half so glad, thought Rosalie,
as would she, for her own mind, she
felt, was failing under the strain.
The answer finally came to Rosa
lie’s telephone call, stating that Doc
tor Hathama was waiting at his con
sultation rooms. They started at
once.

and who naturally wished that this
too, too solid flesh would melt.
“Diet,” says the author of “How
to Redruce,” is the dictator, com
mander, ruler of weight. You are
the power behind the throne, how
ever. Yours the power to curb
the dictator and to direct him into
different channels if his present
course is spelling ruin to your figure.
“A neat classification of those who
should wield that power to the ut
most are the ‘plump,’ the fat and
the obese. The ‘plump' person
weighs about five pounds more than
normal; the ‘fat,’ thirteen to nine
teen pounds, and the ‘obese’ twenty
to forty or over normal weight.”
’Fess up! Where do you go on
the list?
Bread, potatoes, pastry and sweets,
of course, are the tabooed articles
on Miss Donnelly’s diets. But they
are more appetizing, at that, than
many handed out to poor puffers on
the road to the paradise of the thin.
Here are, two of them, which have
been used, the author testifies, “by
real flesh-and-blood persons with
less flesh and healthier, cleaner blood
to testify in their behalf.”

Soap Beneficial to
Skin. Says Specialist
A well-known New York skin
specialist says that it is an errone
ous idea that soap will hurt the
complexion. According to him,
women who wash their faces with
soap have clearer complexions and
do not suffer from enlarged pores.
His advice is to choose a soap free
of alkili, either scented or un
scented and wash the face thorough
ly at night with the soap, rinsing
with cold water. In the mornings it
is sufficient, says this skin specialist,
to wash with warm water and rinse
with cold.

THE COUNTRY HOME
CONDUCTED BY MRS.W.H.FELTON
THE MYSTERY EXPLAINED
It was an assassination of two
’itled personages closely related to
the emperor of Austria, (the oldest
of the ruling class in all Europe),
which precipitated the great world
war. If the heir of Emperor Franz
Joseph (the veteran of al) the kings
and emperors here mentioned), had
lived, the crown of Austria would
have gone to his son, Prince Ru
dolph. The aged emperor set great
store by his only son, expected great
thing of his heir and descendant.
And Rudolph was handsome, rich
and popular with Austrians.
The old emperor, like old Queen
Vic and the queen of Denmark, who
all lived and reigned about the same
time, had it in his mind to combine
matrimonial alliances that would
stabilize their own thrones and fur
nish mates from other ruling king
doms of Europe.
There was a Belgian princess who
was picked by these royal match
makers to be the future empress of
Austria. She and Rudolph were mar
ried in due time and order, and both
“went the pace” as they waited for
the aged Emperor Franz Joseph to
sicken and go hence to the burial
vaults of his fathers.
The young couple did not agree.
They had a noisy time of it. She
was accused of being insanely jeal
ous of another woman, and all the
royal courts of Europe were ac
quainted with their martial difficul
ties. And she had good reason to
be disagreeable, for the Crown Prince
Rudolph was infatuated with a cer
tain baroness, and was not careful
to be secret in his pursuit of her and
she was no better.
It now appears that the baroness
was betrothed to another person, and
gium.
Crown Princess Stephanie of Bel
her betrothed was as jealous as the
Matters approached a crisis. And
the crisis eventuated, In finding the
crown prince dead —in a hunt' ig
lodge, along with the dead body of
the Baroness. The dead body of
the heir to the Austrian throne was
carried to Vienna and buried. Franz
Joseph .and his magnificent wife
were plunged into depths of sorrow
because there was no other son or
daughter in their family. Franz Jo
seph’s line had played out. The
mother never recovered from the
agony of that tragedy. She was
restless.
In one of her visits to a small
town she was set upon by an Ital
ian desperado and stabbed to death.
The old emperor had to pick out a
successor, and Rudolph had no child.
FACTS ABOUT
FURNITURE
(In this series of illustrated
sketches, The Tri-Weekly Journal
presents the most Interesting* and
important points concerning “Period
Furniture.” Each little article will
be complete in itself.)

The Adam brothers derived their
inspiration from the ruins of Pom
peii and Herculaneum and conse
quently their furniture is construct
ed along simple, classic lines.
The sideboard illustrated shows
the straight lines and the delicately
fluted legs which are a characteristic
of the Adam period.
Cottonseed Flour as
A Meat Substitute
Meat is the most expensive food.
Increasing population and dimin
ishing numbers of cattle, sheep and
hogs will compel poor folks to get
from other sources the “protein"
they need for making muscle and
blood. , , , ,
The American Food Journal thinks
that cottonseed flour will important
ly help to solve this problem. Al
most any bakery product can be
made from it —bread, rolls, ginger
bread, doughnuts, ginger snaps,
cake, etc. For such purposes it has
been used for fifteen years in Texas
and other parts of the south.
Cottonseed flour Is bright yellow
in color, swet and nutty in flavor,
and with an agreeable odor. It will
keep indefinitely if dry, being not
affected by changes of temperature.
It is four times richer in protein
than eggs, three times richer than I
beef loin and twice as rich as cheese.
It contains five times as much pro
tein as cornmeal and ten times as
much fat.
It should not, however, be used
by itself, because too heavy and
rich. Four parts of wheat flour
with one of cottonsed flour makes a
good combination. Cottonsed flour
should be regarded as a meat sub
stitute, and not as a flour substitute,
inasmuch as it contains no starch.
Cottonseed flour contains nearly 6
per cent of mineral matter, where
as wheat flour has only one-half of
.1 per cent, cornmeal has 1 per cent.
This is an item of much importance,
inasmuch as minerals are necssary
in all the vital processes of the
doby.—Kansas City Star.
Successful Way to
Iron Tucks
To press tucks so they may look
decorative and not have the usual
flattened appearance, stand the iron
up on end and run the tucks over
the iron, holding the material firmly
between the hands with the tucks
running downwards. In this way.
the material between and beneath
the tucks will be pressed as well as!
the tucks themselves.
Pressing Material
Having a Pile
When pressing velvet, or any ma
terial having a pile, the iron should
be held bottom side up and the vel
vet passed, wrong side down, over
the iron. Thme velvet must be held :
tight so it will keep smooth. To
prevent finger marks, the velvet
should be held in each hand with
the pile touching.
Designers Sponsor
Hats of Ribbon
The leading French milliners are
employing ribbon instead of fabric
for their hats this season. The claim
is made that felt, velvet and duvetyn
make, the scalp moist and dry the
hair, while ribbon, especially gros
grain, is light and gives air to the
hair.
Necklaces of Silk
And Colored Stones
Fashionable necklaces are now
made with silk and colored stones.
Yellow and black, white and green
are popular mixtures. Necklaces in
silk and cut jade motifs are also
seen frequently.
Use for Worn Blankets
When blankets have become ter !
worn and are not being used the;
can be made up into attractive sill;
quilts. Put two or three together
and cover them with pretty sateen I
or silk. To kep them in proper shape
they should be buttoned down here
and there like mattresses. A frill ol
sateen or silk will make a nice fin

After many and serious consult?-
tions, a couple were picked—nq-ii.”
akin to the aged emperor—and they
were announced as his successors.
They felt quite sure of the covet
ed position, and doubtless prome
naded in frequent dress parades in
the capital of Austria.
Again the unexpected happened.
The couple were set upon by an as
sassin—or maybe some sort of pa
triot who was ready to die—if he
might be instrumental In freeing
Austria from what he deemed un
worthy rulers.
Their murder plunged Austria and
neighboring kingdoms into a turmoil
of indignation on one side and a tu
mult of hate on the other side.
The kaiser , saw his chance and he
took it—unfortunately for Germany
and for his preious self. This was
the fuse that ignited the blaze and
caused the shock of the World War
in 1914.
The public has been led to sup
pose all this time, that Crown
Prince Rudolph and the baroness had
some sort of a suicide pact—and
that thev went to their deaths by
reason of their unwillingness to live
apart, and the decree had been re
corded that they could not live as
affinities together.
But the mystery has been explain
ed after years of suspension and con
jecture. The man who had been
picked for the husband of the baron
ess had grown tired of his neglect.
A quarrel followed. As the new
story goes tfie Crown Prince was
knocked in the head with a brimful
bottle of champagne, and the baron
ess, alarmed by the noise, appeared
at the door, where the revelers were
assembled and somebody shot her
down on the threshold. An orgy was
at its height, and it became necessary
to put a face on the recital; so the
suicide-pact was promulgated and
spread abroad throughout the two
great continents. »
If the Crown Prince had been mas
ter of himself and half as decent as
his disappointed parents, he would
be now most probably the reigning
emperor of Austria, and no world
war, to intervene, which convulsed
two hemispheres, and from the ef
fects of which all Europe will suffer
in pocket and unparalleled sacrifice
of human life for a century to come.
The United States of America will
feel it also for many decades.
Righteousness exalteth a nation,
but the wickedness of mankind can
always be reckoned with in carnage
and devastation.
Poor Austria, seems to be fatally
dismembered at the present writing.
