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.

ARTHUR JAMMES. Nashville, Ga., R. F. D. 8. WILFV L CTOKJ 111 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, New Wai'stlines for Old; Dieting Is Solution for The Reduction of Girth From correct standing position stretch hands high overhead; bend from trunk and try to touch floor with finger-tips, keeping knees straight.

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. (To be Continued.) / \ Assume correct standing posi tion. Hands on hips. Raise right thigh and knee forcibly, with muscles tensed until they are at right angles to the body; lower leg to floor. Do not derange po sition of trunk, nor relax muscles on lowering knee. Stretch foot to toe tips. Repeat five times. Then with left foot. 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.” Diet E (By use of this diet a person reduced twenty pounds in twelve weeks.) Breakfast Gracefruit. One egg. Two to three ounces lean meat of fish. One slice dry toast. Black coffee without sugar. Dinner Meat soup (fat carefully skimmed off). Lean roast beef, four to five ounces. Stewed tomatoes, one helping. Unsweetened fruit or half glass Spinach, one helping. orange juice. Supper Two to three ounces cottage cheese. Unsweetened fruit. One slice dry toast. Tea with lemon. Note —In this diet the big meal is a ken at noon to avoid the after-din ner rest. It is not a strenuous diet and is a very good one on which to begin reducing. 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. SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 6, 1920. 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.) Type of Adam Sideboard R-—i 4 |; v v v | 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.

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.

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. ■ MARY MEREDITH’S ADVICE' TO LONELY GIRLS AT HOME Will you please print just a few lines for me?
