It can easily add a few civic topics to Its pro gramme, create a civic department and have one or more civic days each sea son. It can easily do a few things to make your town a better town to live in. "Some of the things your club can do: Provide public playgrounds, open the schoolhouses as social centers for pub lic recreation and discussion; improve the sanitation of the town by attend ing to its garbage collection, keeping its streets and alleys clean and free from files: urging sewer and water systems, if there are none; provide for the teaching 'of citlienshlp and morals In your public schools; improve your moving pictures.

"The reason for your club doing and studying these things, in addition to whatever else It Is doing or studying, Is because life and people are more valu able than anything else In the world, and civic study and work mean the first step toward the bringing more abundant life to greater numbers of people In time, even to all people." A woman's club of Ipswich, S. D., has arranged to plant a row of shade trees on each side of the Twin City Aberdeen Yellowstone Park trail for a distance of three miles on each side of the town. When the trees have made sufficient growth travelers over the trail will have six miles of splendid shade. It Is believed other towns will take up the movement, until eventually the trail will be made a beautifully shaded driveway all the way from the Twin Cities to Yellowstone Park. sAnne Rtttthouse Is War or the Normal Swing; of Fashion Responsible for Our Gay Colors f PARIS, Aug. 18. Perhaps it is be cause at this time of catastrophe black has quickly assumed the appear ance of mourning that vivid colors are gaining in favor. You remember it was at Deauville last year that black came Into high favor. There in the gay setting of blue sea and blue Bky and colorful surroundings black dressed women walked with distinc tion. They were full of life and hap piness and their somber clothes de tracted nothing from their gaiety. But today, when many women are already mourning and many more must mourn before peace is restored, the wearing of bright colors cheers us. This Is only one phase of the color question. Probably we have normally reached a time when bright colors would naturally return to high favor. And if world-wide peace had not been broken, we might have had just as much color in our Winter wardrobes a we seem likely now to have. In the midst of all this color talk, lie It remarked that there are predic tions that pastel colors are on their way, with pearl gray and much black and white. And be it also remarked that the favorite model among Amer ican buyers in the Cheruit collection Is made of dark-blue cloth. Dark blue, once established, is with great difficulty supplanted, especially in the taste of Americans. We always did like dark blue and wa probably always shall like it, and mere popularity can not spoil It for us. Bright Colors In the Kirnins. Much white Is still used for evening, but most of the white frocks, show bright color of some sort. A favorite model for dance frocks is made of white tulle, with a long tunic edged with bright ribbon. Bright flowers are used, also, to give color to white even ing frocks. And of course there are many frocks made entirely of metallic cloth and lace and chiffon. Purple and American Beauty red are combined, and so are orange and green, cerise and white or black or silver, magenta and Nile green, and brick dust color and blue. This is a favor ite combination of Premet- Tulle literally of rainbow hues Is lavishly used on evening frocks, and chiffon shading from light pink through all the shades to a deep or ange rose is another gay fabric. The bright velvet hats that one sees now are another evidence of our de sire for color. And so are the metallic brocades, the figured chiffon, the won derful embroideries of beads and metal threads, the brilliant figured silks and the brocaded velvet and velours. SWEETBREADS. The chief secret in the successful preparation of sweetbreads lies in their treatment when they first come from the butcher's. They must be parboiled at once for from 15 to 20 minutes in water and salt, never allowing them to boil, and then plunged into ice water and lemon juice or vinegar for an hour to blanch. The sweetbreads found In veal are considered best, although those found in lamb are also delicious. In the economy of an animal the sweetbreads are the two large glands thart He along the back of the throat anrl In the breast. The lower or heart sweetbread is round, compact and much nicer than the throat sweetbread, which is long, narrow and easily di vided into sections. ' Sweetbreads should always be han dled with a silver knife, on account of the phosphorus which they contain in abundance. After parboiling, the little strings and membranes can easily be removed, after which the sweetoreads may be cooked in any of the following ways: DfvoreedLife JfelenllessanpfUesso.

"Seriously," resumed Challoner, whatever decision remains to be made In this case by the high and supreme court of appeals, I can see no reason why it shouldn t be handed down in open court. Your letters, whatever their contents, are charming, of course. but word of mouth in this case is im measurably sweeter. Let's talk It over. anyway.

Other things being equal, moreover. there is a reason for the success ot lawvers in Cupid's high court of claims. as compared with the love-lorn of other callings. I feel that I have made it clear, resumed Challoner seriously, "that my love for you is not a flimsy, flighty, irresponsible thing. Whether you realize it or not, you have reached out with strong. Invisible arms, seized me and held me fast. I have capitulated unconditionally. There was nothing else to do. What Is more, you care for me. I believe you love me. Whether you decide to act logically or illogically. we are each others never theless. I wish you would admit that you love me, Marian, if for no other reason than to confirm my conclusion and to keep my persistence from ap pearing not wholy obnoxious." "Yes. I do love you." answered Marian, "much more than I wish I did, much more than I have any right to.' "Love often makes its own laws," said Challoner happily. "Every love Is a new revelation a beaming, blind ing revelation, defying prophets and lawgivers, establishing new precedents, running away from the old and Into the new." But It Isn't right," protested Ma rian. '"We have no right to care for each other. I tell yoiv. No love can be right that inflicts an injustice upon another. What of Mrs. Challoner?

One day he took his books and slate under his arm, but instead of going to school he went Into the woods and lay down under the trees. Presently he felt the leaf of the book he was reading move. and. looking up, he saw a fairy sitting on the top of the book. "Why didn't you go to school?" she asked. "Run along, like a good little boy, and do not be Ignorant and lazy." "No, I shall not." replied Otto, with hie eyes still on the book, and he did not notice that the fairy had gone. Otto kept on reading until he saw a shadow on the page where he was reading, and when he looked up he saw hundreds of little brown men around him. "Come along," they said, and Otto felt himself being dragged over the ground. The little men stopped in front of a rock, and. as it did not have any moss on it, Otto knew that his captors must be the gnomes. They tapped on the rock and when It opened they dragged Otto In and he felt himself sinking down and down until he felt water, but they did not stop; through the water they went. At last they 6topped. and as they let go of him Otto sat up and looked about. Everything was dull-looking, not a green thing to be seen dirt, rocks and the little brown men looked about the same. "Why did you bring me here?" asked Otto. "This Is a dull-looking place." Xhla U Just the place for you," re- We Can Make Every Drug We Need WE hear a great deal about shortages of drugs and chemicals. Many other industries are halting until needed ingredients can be supplied. We have leaned on Europe when we should be making fhese things ourselves. Listen to what Prof. E. L. Newcombof the University of Minnesota has to say: "America for many years has been the dumping ground for European drugs of poor quality. If development work is now supported America will no longer be at the mercy of European dealers, who charge whatever they please for inferior drugs be cause they have a monopoly. There will then be no chance for unwarranted price boosting such as there has been in this country during the last two weeks." Time for America to Get Busy piled one of the little men. "You are a dull boy. Your head cannot help you. so we will take off your head and let your body do your work. Twelve of the little men lifted Otto's head from his shoulders and placed It on a rock. Then they put a shovel in one of his hands and a pall in the other and led him to a hill. "Dig here," they told him, "until you make a cave." Otto watched his body working, and for a while he thought it was great sport, but It suddenly occurred to him (his head, I mean) tnat nis Dooy was digging the cave in a very foolish way. The top was left so thin that Otto felt sure it would fall and bury his body. "Oh, dear," he said at last, "what a simpleton that body is. It will surely be buried under the earth in a short time if I do not stop It. Here, here!" he called. "Stop digging and listen to me." But the body did not notice the call, and he called again, "Otto, Otto!" "What do you want?" the head answered. "How mixed everything Is!" said Otto "I call myself and myself an swers. That poor, foolish body of mine will be lost In a minute. It hasn't an ounce of sense." Just then the body took a shoveful of earth from a weak place, and down came the earth and covered It. "Help! help!" screamed Otto. The little brown men came running from all directions. "What is the mat ter?" they asked. "My body is buried under that pile of earth," replied the head. "Oet It out quick or I or It Oh. dear! I do not know what to say; but hurry or my body will die." "Boys who do not go to school and study," a little man continued, "can never do anything that Is worth while." Just then Otto saw his body walk ing along trying to shake off the earth which clung to his clothes. "Please put m head back on my shoulders," he said, "or It will surely get into more trouble." "Will you go to school and learn to guide It In the right way?" asked the Protect the Purity of Home Baking The leavener you U9e is largely responsible for the flavor, texture, wholesomeness and appearance of your home baking.

"Now up with him." they said, and Otto felt himself going up and up, and then the sunlight fell upon hie face and he found himself under the tree again. He felt of his head; It was there and securely fastened. Otto jumped up, took his books and slate and ran to ward the schoolhouse. thankful to have his head and body together again.

Everyone stared t her. It was not her beautv of feature that held our eyes, nor her costume. But there was something about her face and expression I risked It and asked: "Would you mind telling me how you keep your complexion so dax zllngly pure? Don't think me Imper tinent, but you seem over 10, yet haven t a line in your face, and your cheeks are quite peach-like. How do you do it?" , Laughing, she said: 'That easy. I remove my skin. Sounds shocking, doesn't It? But listen. Instead of cos metics I use only pure mercollxed wax. procurable at any druggist's. I apply this nightly, like cold cream, washing It off mornings.
