Great Desert Drama
... Alma Jctuebens is at tne Columbia
theatre in a great drama of desert life,
titled "The Firefly, of Tough Luck."
.They called her "The Firefly" on Broad
. war. where she made life merry for
" Tnanu fvlr. Rha ' wax r by rahinti
Queen at one of the big restaurants,
and. until the great war closed the cafes
early and made all-night life a thing
of the past past. Firefly knew no other
world. Then there came the days when
there was no work for her In all New
Tork. .
Driven by her culture-like husband,
the, Flrely started West. Her husband
s remained in New York to enjoy a life
of ease and luxury from the money the
Firefly was to send him. At Baxter
City, rough mining camp, the cabaret
waif found prosperity, real happiness
' and the love of a strong-hearted man.
Thens. her parasitic husband appeared
' on . the scene. . Torn ' between love and
- the sacredness of marriage vows, the
. Firefly faced one of life's hardest
problems. But her answer came clear.
"For better or for worse," she mur
mured, and ' followed her brute of a
f husband out into the desert, after he
had been given 10 minutes to leave
town for having robbed the asaayer's
office. In the desert there was a den
of rattlesnakes. A 14-foot Texas rep

all the letters I receive

trarlo question, "How can X - keep

All . my readers -want youth mat

often lost In the seeking. But why sail

Youth is 1 our- stats of mind. How

this and knew there was some way of
keeping it forever 1 But they looked In
the wrong- place for the 'secret, which
only lies within.- .-'.'
In the spring .of the year everything

The old-fashioned teaching is that at
a certain age we begin to lose our youth
and beauty, and any exception to the

has marked oof certain years when' cer
tain changes occur. Wa are youthful
until 25. Then we feel we must take
carethat .we .begin to go off in looks.
Then we look so arduously for the first
signs that we find them, and from that
day on we never stop looking for them
and finding them. .We would Just as
quickly find the contrary if we only
looked for It.
The prospector looking for gold gen

therefore allowing- to slip by the signs

I wonder how many really know what
quantity of food we really need to feed
and properly nourish us. How- terr-bly
shocked we would be by the difference
between that and the unnecessary quan
tity of which we dispose, and by the
consequent awful strain on the whole
system. .Tet we go on cultivating out
taste for
this
or that thing not in the
nourishingnot . considering
whether it is necessary or good fnr uk ;
In fact, we often know to the contrary,
but whether we like It or not. -
If 'you watch your own figure and
view its ouUInes frequently you can
form an idea of what you are doing for
your own well-being. . . i .
Fat is a disease, and disease is oon-
tagkraa. . Control your appetite, eat
simply and regularly and cultivate
health. . Health is contagious therefore
mmgie witn neaitny people, with healthy
minds. Do as they do think as they
in ma. unve out the old-fashioned lim
ited thought.' Keep youthful, E?pet u!.
ambitious thoughts in your mmd . and
live on and on, distributing health and
encouragement to all who corns your
way.
Deny age and its devastating, de
stroying influence. Be youthful alwaya
onto two 'needles, to be called "left"
and ."right,- as at first. Pick up all
stKches on left side of -heel piece onto
left heel needle, about 1$ or 1$ in addi
tion to those already -on the needle.
Kalt across front needle. Pick up the
same number on the right side of the
heel piece as you did on the left, and
add them to the right heel needle. This
loaves your sock on the original three
needles. Knit arouml plain one row.
New- narrow on heel needles every
other, row. as follows I i . ' '
On the left needle knit plain .to last
two stitches. Knit these two together.
-. Knit across front needle plain.
On first end of 'right needles, slip X,
knit X, slip the -slipped stitch over, and
continue t plain to end of needle.
Knit clear" around plain, aad repeat
the narrowing until the stitches on the
two i heel needles together eaual the
number on the front needle. (The aamei
number altogether as the number after
narrow for ankle.)
Distribute stitches more equally on
the three needles, and knit plain untO
foot (from tip of heel) measures within
about two and a half inches of the
intended length of the finished foot.
(Allow less for toe if you started sock!
with $4 stitches.)
Tor "Kitchener toe" Knit stitches,
knit 1 together, knit s. knit X together,
etc! once around. Knit rows plain.
Knit 6. knit 2 together, etc around
onoe. and knit S rows. . i
Then a row of narrowing with ln
tervals of 4 stitches, and 4 plain rows!
then on with intervals of 1 sti tehee, and
I plain rows ; and finally 2 stitches
and 1 plain rows until you have only
24 stitches left In all.
Divide these stitches en two needles,
XX on front. 12 on heel needle. Tou will
have to have knitted beyond the mid
dle, to have your thread at the end of
the heel needle. -.
Break yarn off thread length and
thread into darning needle.
Holding the knitting-needles together
with front needle next to you, yarn atJ
right end. we are new ready to finish
the "Kitchener toe."
Be sure to -keep yarn always under
knitting needles, snd at right of darn
ing needle. Now slip darning needle
through the first front stitch in the
position of purling, slip it through the
first heel stitch in the-position of knit
ting, "drawing yarn close as in knitting,
but leaving the tl tehee on the needles.
