"Don't you worry. Daddy." The face hi.s child lifted to him was so like her mother's his hrca'.h caupht. "I'll take good care of Gram and the store too." "Okay, kitten." The father kis.=ed her tenderly. "Vou'rt the jnan of the house."

After her diath there was the child with tho same s^lcek black hair, the same brown eyes and small dainty features. Maternally, Judy had taken on the task her mother had laid down and put childhood behind her to look after her father as Julia, the mother, had done. Ho cheerfully, did she do this that it had never cccuiTed to Kalph Miller she was niissinK anything. So he put his mother's frequent complaints be- hind him with a .smile. Judy was just different. Her mother's uirl. She didn't lake to silly clothes and beans and modern things. At noon Judy came home from the drujf store and took some hot vegetable soup to Marlie for his lunch. She found him in the kit- chen eating an onion sandwich two inches thick. "Hole' out your hands." Judy 60t thfc soup down. "1 must in- spect and see if you cut any fin- ders off with thp bread knife." Marlie grinned and obeyed. "Not even a nick." "Remarkable," Judy's brown eyes sparkled. They both laugh- ed self-consciously. "I'm surpri.sed your mother thinks it proper for me to come over to look after you," Judy said as she opened the ice-box. "Oh, Mom trusts you." Marlie fell into eating his soup. "But you're the only girl she does trust. She thinks all tlve rest are lost souls." "WeJi, I hope she doesn't find mc out." "That would be too bad," Marlie grinned. "Say, maybe you're leading a double life, at that." Judy went to the cookie jar and helped herself to a handful of ginger snaps. "Grani think.-; I should be," she laughed. "She says it's better to play with fire and get your fingers burned a little than to grow old before your time. Gram's funny Bometimes." "^rah." Mnrlif got uj) and rfiided the cookie jar. "I guess .â- jhc'd change her tune if you'd start changing and getting like other girls." "Am I not like other girls, Mar- lie?" Judy sat down thoughtfully. "You're nicer." Marlborough smiled down at her from his great height fraternally. "I mean â€" you're good. Judy, just Unik at you for a sister." "Why, thanks, warmed to the sincerity in his %'oice. "That's the way yoii seem lu ine, loo. Good, and just like I'd 'want my own brother to be if I ha<l one." "Hi. Sis!" Marlie saluted. "Hi. Buzz!" Judy finished hor cookie.-, and jumped up. "I've got to get back to the stoie. Now do everything your mother told you to do, and don't forget to turn off the cat and put out the radio." "Ah, Judy." Marlie lo(,kid dis- tressed. "Vou don't think I'm not capable of looking out for myself, do you" I'lcHse don't bother to <-on'!c in and make beds and Ihing.s. I can do it." "Of course you enn,'' Judy as- •ured liim.

"I want to be sure you get enough nourishment." "Okay," Marlie promised. "It's a date." Marlie spent the aftcrnuon at the lake, which was just begin- ning to awaken with the usual Summer activity. Nothin;; of im- portance happened. A part of the time he spent teaching some of the younger children to swim, but mostly he just lay in the sand letting his thoughts wander, or fade away altogether. It seemed to him the skies had never been bluer nor the sun more mellow as it shone down on the little lake colony in the shadow of the Catskills. It made a fellow feel like reading poetry, some- how. The next day he'd bring down his favorite book of poems. Aloud he recited as much as he r< membered of one of them: "And what is so rare as a day in June'/ Then if ever, come perfect days: "Then heaven tries the earth if it be in tune. And over it softly her warm ear lays." A few of the young people of Marlie's age were swimming a lit- tle farther up the lake. He could hear their shouts of laughter. But it never occurred to him to join them, nor they to invite him. Big Mike Tulling passed and liailed him. "Hi, Angel!" Marlie winced, but greeted him agreeably. After all the.se years he should have been able to get used to being called Angel, but somehow, it always made him feel foolish. If his mother just would not brag so much about his virtues in public. And had Marlborough Jones been aware of it, he was not only in the thoughts of his mother at lluit moment, but in the thoughts Jabot Frock That Slenderizes I'ATTKKN 10 -I 'J By ANNE ADAMS This is a frock to be you; sal- vation all springâ€" especially when you're attending club meetings or entertaining, and want to look your slimmest self I Kver see a smartest nuinbcis.

And she bad been thinking of him all day. Liaa had seen Mrs. Jones at th« station, when she went down to meet her best friend, Kentucky Louellan. When she learned Mrs. Jones was to be away for a week, an idea came to her which had, at first, seemed absurd. For days Lisa had pondered over the problem of a boy friend for the belle of Louisville. But one by one she had eliminated ev- ery male of her immediate circle from the list. She just couldn't spare one of them to fall in love with Tucky. Men always did. - It was inevitable. Then she thought of Marlbor- ough Jones. Marlie, she decided after cai\:ful thought, was really ((Uito good-looking. If he'd loos- en up and slop hanging to his mother's apron-strings ho was really <]uite an attractive citizen. Six feet tall, brown curly hair, very nice gray eyes. Large hand- some features. About as good l(>oking, come to thing of it, as any of the other Leebrook younger set. But he was such a tightwad! r.ven if he did agre to date Tucky, could they depend upon him to loosen lip with a little cash to take her out? She knew he had the income from a hundred thou- sand dollars in first mortgages that his father had left him. But from the way tlie Joneses lived, you'd never know they had a penny. Marlie was an old skinflint, just like his father had been! The more I.i.sa pondered over the idea of Tucky's getting stuck with Marlborough Jones on a double (late, the more the idea ap- pealed to her. It would serve her right. She was so all-fired sure of herself, and her charm over men! The way she'd tried to take Tom- my Lee away from her in Louis- ville last summer ! Lisa wouldn't admit even to herself that Tucky liad succeeded. When Lisa had made up her mind, she lost no time in starting downtown in her car to find Mar- lie. She found him sitting at the counter of Miller's drug store, bent over a huge banana split. "Hi, Judy!" Lisia gave out her sweetest smile and slid into a seat beside Marlie. "Believe it or not. Toots, but you're just the nian I'm looking for!" A slow flush suffused Marlbor- ((Ugh's tanned countenance. "Me?" He managed to find his source of repartee. "I guess you must have been looking for a cou- ple of other fellows." "But certainly not!" Lisa put her elbows on the counter and gave him the full glory of her slow burning gre^n eyes. "Aren't you going to buy me a soda?" Judy almost dropped a glass she was wiping. (To Be Continued) Every Girl Must Have Two Natures The Clever Woman Cultivates A Double Personality To Be Liked By People Of Both Sexes. There's no getting around it, a girl ueetls two sets of attractions to bo liked by both girls anil meu, writes Ruth Millett. A man will be attracted by her good looks. A woman will be sus- picious of her just because she Is good-looking. A man will like her helplessness, or pretense of It. Hut women have to drop their dependent ways wUcu tUey are out "with tho girls". A man doesn't blame a girl for j)luying up to other women's bus- hands, lie just tries to get her at- lentiou himself. Hut women have no good to say for her. Meu like a girl who is very sure of lierself. But If slio doesn't bold lier "sureness" in leash when she is with otiier women, she maltes them iicli lo j'ut her in her place. They Don't Lil<e Wit Few men nppreciato wit in a woman â€" especially if It is the luast l)it down to reath. Men like a girl that other men like, while oilier girls seldom liks a glamour girl. And yet wo wonder why so many girls change the minute a man walks iulo the room.

In many parts of Ontario and Indeed throughout Canada there has been more or less reversion to old-liino square dancing and old- time Qddlers' contests in prefer- enco to the ultramodern ''Jitter- bug" and ''rug cutter" routines with swing music accoinpanlment. W. K. Hlntoii, of Glenavon.

In Caledon a children's square dance competition was held in which school pupils between the ages of nine and thirteen years showed mraked aptitude in the dance rou- tines popularized by their grand- fathers and great grandfathers.

It does not pay to neglect even apparent trivialities, because they can so quickly become big and tire- some. A frequent problem concerns fingernails that break or flake off as soon as they grow fairly long. This is usually caused by lack of calcium and Insufficient fat in the system. Include more butter and cream in your diet, and start tak- ing calcium and cod-liver oil. In addition, paint your nails with a little colorless iodine, meanwhile avoiding the use of nail varnish for a few weeks. Tired feet take half the joy from life, so when you suffer give them this llttio treat. Soak them in very hot water to which you've added either bath salts or a handful of ordinary salt. Dry with a soft towel, then massage with warm olive oil. Follow up by rubbing the soles with methylated spirits, llnally dusting with talcum. For corns, iheio is only one remedy. Get a good corn plaster and remove the corns. Ar« the muscles of your chiu starting to sag? Use an astringent lotion and pat It briskly In. Have you any personal beauty problems?

CASSEROLE DISHES The trick of easy-to-make and tasty-to-cat casserole dishes is one which every cook hopes to acquire. The following recipes will prove useful in learning the art of pro- ducing really delicious casserole concoctions.
