You just naturally can't respect
others in this world if you don't
Tespect yourself, an" you can't
respect yourself it you're not
neatly dressed. Now isn't that
the truth? 'Course t'is! If you
haven't got such a suit, it will
pay you to go to J. C. Penny &

put you on a self-respectin basis.
It sort o' makes one fearless too,

Qear Cynthia:
Two weeks from today is Christ
mas! Think of it, Cynthia
makes me feel all het up, sp to
speak! Something like a North
Dakota senator's wife did rn,jn
she was attendin' a high fluittin
affair in Washington. The! at
mosphere of the rooms was very
warm. She was aeciaeaiy on iae
fleshy order and was trying tcj im
prove her condition by the vigor
ous use of a fan. A gentleman
approached her and said:
"Madam, you're perspiriig!"
and she replied:
"Yees, un' svetin too."
That's a true story, Cynthia;
you needn't think I made it up!
We'uns all say foolish things,
sometimes, and it don't do us
a mite of harm to -laugh at them
either, s'long 's we're not qurt
An' anybody's feelin. We'd ail
feel a heap better, if we'd lush
more, and I don't mean by ithat
trigKlin'. If there s anyone
earth that can take the joy
of life,, it's a giggler.

two strangers. One was pleasant,

how he must o hated himself!
First thins I knew I was slippm
my pocketbook out of the pocket
next him and transferrin if; to
the pocket on the other fidn.
T'aint human nature to trust
folks like that! A' cheerful liar
is preferable to a grouch any jday.

I found myself actually relnct
ant to leave home for my pro
jected trip so fascinated had I be
come with both the personality
of Harriet Braithwaite and tne
problem she subtly suggested to
my mind.
But all our plans had been
made, and so effectively had e
all worked under the spell of get
ing ready for our guests that on
ly the most necessary last things
remained to be done, and I had
plenty of leisure to spend with
the sister-in-law whom I hai
learned to like immensely.
Dickv had DroDosed ta take
Lillian. Marion, my father and
me out in the big car jointly
owned by Dicky and Alfred Dnr-
kee. But his mother had effect
ually squelched his plans by de
claring that the car must be kept
m readiness for the entertain
ment of his sister and her hus
band "You know Edwin sold all of
his cars and hasn't bought a new
one yet;" she sputtered to her
son when he casually mentioned
his intention of going with u.s.
"It'll be a fine howdy'do if he has
to get a taxi every time he wants
to go anywhere while he's bete."
"He'll have to get a chauffeur, i
he might as well get a taxi, too,"
Dicky responded sulkily. "I
can't stay at home to chauff him
around.
"No, but you can take two days
to go to the other end of the is
land?" his mother retorted caus
tically. "But that's all you know
about it anyway. .lust because
Edwin has had a man to driv3
him for years doesn't mean that
be can't drive a car himself. He
has always driven, and is perfect
ly crazy about it. Harriet was
saying just a little while ago that
Edwin had been over looking at
vour car. and his hands were just
itching to get at it."
"Let him go to it, then." Dicky
said carelessly. "Sorry, old girl."
turning to me. "You'll have to
go by train, I guess, unleps "
"I'm going to leave that to ia
Iher," I said demurely, smiling
across at my equally demure
looking parent. "He is in charge
of this expedition."
"I don't envy father." Dicky
observed caustically. "Judgin?
from the baggage you and Lil
have been getting ready, father'd
better engage an old-fashioned,
white-covered emigrant wagon
for the trek."
"Thank you for the tip. Rich
ard." my father returned. .
mav have to act npon "It. Z
I had hard work to keep my
"nirits down to a mark where
Dicky would not suspect my re
lief at my mother-in-law's inter
ference with his plans, and I
therefore kept my face averted
from my father, and the mischiev.
ous twinkle which I knew was 1t
his eyes- For nothing would
have suited us better tiian this
plan which kept Dicky at home.
I knew that my father had
planned to have Doran the gar
age man who was teaching me to
drive take my new car out to
our temporary abiding place, and
that I was to have the chance to
drive the car myself after we had
passed the more thickly settled
sections of the island. I so long
ed to prove to Dicky my prowess
in driving a car, and I needed the
experience which this long tour
and later drives near our destina
tion would give me. before I
should be ready to meet my hua-
band's good-natured criticism.-
A Hesitant Beginning.
"Everything's all arranged
daughter." mv father whispered
to me a little later. "Doran will j
call for us tomorrow mornmgi
and. of course, everybody wm
think the car is his which we have
hired for the trip."
My anticipation of the expect
ed chance to drive was positively
childish, and put out of my mind
for the time being all thoughts
of my siste-In-law she recalled
herself to me most vividly, how
ever, after dinner that same eve
ning when her husband, my fa
ther and Dicky were enjoying
their cigars upon the veranda and
my mother-in-law had gone to her
room to be sure that "Richard
Second" was asleep.
Lillian had taken Clarion to
the city in the morning, .and was
to have an early dinner in town,
and go directly to the Durkees
from the train. This left Har
riet and me alone together, and
I saw by her quick, furtive glance
around, her drawing of her chair
nearer mine, that she had been
waiting the chance to speak to me
without danger of being over
heard.
"Margaret " she hesitated.
"How long are you going to bo
gone?"
"About three weeks." I re
turned promptly.
"Would you mind?" she paused
again. "Having us. stay here
until after you come back?"
"Mind!" I eiaculated. '"Have
you taken leae of your senses?"
What She Wondered."
"Sometimes I wonder if I may
not have." she returned a trifle
mournfully, "but I am perfectly
sane upon this topic. "Don v
think I can't see what mother's 4
been up to before we came, and:
Is still keeping- up? She's a darl-
; ing, but as cantankerous an old
dear as youll ever want to roeeu:

The Theft Evil in Stores
WE HAVE noticed with indignation and concern, the
increasing faculty of pickpockets and sneak thieves. As
the holidays dfaw nearer and everybody's errands accum
ulate, these sneaks will have richer and richer plunder
for their loot.! '
WE HAVE doubled, our store wafchfulneslf foprotect
our guests and! our stocks, but we'suggest that customers
guard themsefvfe8 with greater thoughtfulness and care
than hertoforef 5
PLEASE do nfot lay your purse or. bag on the counter.
Please do not jtoirget to take proper care of your parcels,
never trusting them loose n the counter while you
examine merchandise.
PERHAPS thl wisest precaution, as you pass from
counter to cointer and from store to store about your
Christmas shopping, will be to use one of those capacious
string bags td slip your parcels in. Whatever appeals
to people becomes the fashion and this would be an
independent, sfensfble one.
BETTER carry i those gift-purchases home in a string
bag than loHejthem altogether! There is a frankness
and opennesis about these convenient, if plain com
modities, that is just expressed by the mesh itself.- You
can see whai's within, and so can everybody else. Yon
can doubtless get one in almost any department store.
We sell them.
LET US all realize that each one of us Is responsible
for intelligent prevention of misfortune, and for min
imizing temptation to the sick-minded who would stoop
to rob us. A little forethought frustrates much evil. ..
