Why you I ought to have JEFF had a pocketful of nickels, he followed her to the change booth. He stood behind her in the line, his eyes noting every detail from her soft, short black curls to her doll-siz- e suede shoes. He even approved of her hat, a warm plum color the exact shade of coat and shoes. He was so busy with his survey that he failed to notice the nickel she left in the worn wooden cup In the shelf. "Hey, Lady," the money-chang-yelled after her, "You left your chancel" the tracks at the uptown platform where he saw her, Just before the train pulled in. He skidded all the way down the stairs, landing in an ungraceful and thoroughly disgruntled heap at the bottom. By the time he untangled his long arms and legs and got across the mezzanine floor and back up the uptown stairs, the train was pulling out and she was gone. He was sunk, stymied, and he didn't have the remotest chance of catching her of finding out what any half-wi- t should have asked her before he returned the precious you thrown In the Jug!" In about 40 seconds, Jeff was standing dazed and furious outside the subway station, back where he had first maneuvered to walk close to the lovely little black-haire- d stranger. Why had she raised such a rum-pus? She must have seen him be-fore, when she doubled back at West 4th she must have run nwnv from f fff'".

Jeff tried to make his voice sound casual as he told the man, "I'll give it to her." The man grinned. "Sure don't blame you." Jeff fumbled In his haste to get through the turnstile. He followed her downstairs and spotted her in the middle of the crowd on the plat-form, watching the F train roll in. "Your change," he panted, "You left your change at the booth." She stared up at him, and the Im-pact of the Incredibly dark velvety eyes tossed his heart Into tome rosy world far, far away. Desper- - atcly be searched for the smooth, brilliant, exactly right thing he never could think to say until It was too late. But, "You left your change," he repeated Inanely, and held out the nickel. "Why, thank you very much," she said, and her voice was Just what it should have been low and soft and sweet. "How nice of you to chase after me!" "Oh, that's all right," he said. "I . . . I . . ." and there he stuck. She smiled rather vaguely at him, waited a minute, and started to turn away when he failed to think of any-thing else to say. "Wait, please"!" he shouted at her. He didn't need to shout he was right beside her so close that the crowd rushing out of the train threw her against him. For a breathless moment, he saw her tiny hand clutch at Vila mat implied the wonderful Jeff spotted her In the middle of the crowd on the platform, watching the F train roll In. "Your change," he panted, "yon left your change at the booth." nickel. Who was she? Where did she live? Did she travel the same route every day? Did she work-- did she he didn't have the slightest clue as to how to find her again ever. Cursing himself for a blithering idiot, he stepped on the next train that came along. Might as well go back to 42nd street and ride his usual train back to his lonely room and his lonelier thoughts. Of course he decided to be at that change booth every day for the rest of his life, if necessary, until he found her again. He pondered an ad to run in the Times: "Will the beau-tiful lnrlv wntVi tVi rfnrlr vi tt'hn fnr. him! What was so frightening about him? He puzzled and groused over that problem while he drank two cups of coffee In a little place across the street. He didn't get the answer until he reached into his pocket for his wallet to pay his check. The wal-let was gone. Jeff remembered the appealing way her dark eyes had held his when she was thrown on his chest on the platform remembered those pretty little white hands as they clung to his lapel tugging at his heart strings and his wallet sweetness of her perfume as she laughed up at him. Ht supported her elbows and helped her catch her balance. ; "This seems to be your day for rescuing me," she said, "Thanks again." Before he could say another word, she was inside the car and the door was closing. Then he realized he hadn't found out her name or any-thing about her except that her left hand was innocent of rings wedding or otherwise. He darted down the platform and found a last late-closin- g door. It didn't help much to know that he was on the same train with ner one that he had no business on. It was Jammed and he struggled hope-lessly to get back to her car. He died a thousand deaths at 34th street, 23rd and 14th, afraid she would get off and he would miss her in the mob. It happened at West 4th street, but he saw her in time and bounded after her, down the stairs to the Sixth ave-nue platform, barely keeping her in sight. He thought she looked right at him, Just before she wheeled and ran back up the stairs. "Hope she isn't afraid of me might peg me for a wolf," he told himself. "No that's silly! Probably didn't even see me." He chased back up the stairs to find that she was not on the downtown platform. He looked behind the news stand, at both ends of the long pla-tformshe was not in sight It dawned on him to look across got a nickel at the change booth at 42nd street on the night of. . ." Back at 42nd street, he stood gloomily staring at her for several minutes before he realized It. She was standing on the downtown platform again, right where he had first muffed his chances with this girl he had dreamed all of his life of some day meeting. She was talking to a man, so absorbed that she didn't eren glance in his di-rection. Once more Jeff dashed upstairs, downstairs and along the platform until at last he could reach out and grasp her arm. She looked up then, surprise widen-ing her dark eyes, and let out a blood-curdlin- g scream. "Help! Po-lice Help!" She backed away from him, still screaming and started toward a subway guard. ft o o o g ' Pfe d' i . .sM0( If1 Kabobs Help You Keep Cool (See recipes below) Cool Tactics As soon as warmer weather starts seeping into the house, many a wom-an asks the question, "How can I keep cool and still cook for the family?" That is a neat trick, but you can do it, too. The first thing is to plan your menus so there are no long cooking ideas in them. Make a point of not selecting anything that will require more than 30 minutes cook-ing. The second is to do most of your work in the cool of the morning, so that you won't be spending too much time right at supper time when it is so warm. The third is to plan all-co- meals and get the preparation out of the way before hot weather really hits you. There are a number of cool Ideas such as meat or meat-fortifie- d salads that can be whipped together early and stored until supper time. Do this once or twice a week and see how nicely it works. Here are several ideas that won't require much actual cooking prepa-ration. Use them often for variety.

Salad That Satisfies Salad suggestions always intrigue the homemaker who is interested in varying her menus, particularly when she wants to "dress up" a cold meal for hot summer days. Here is one slightly different from the uru;,l salad: Make lemon jelly in the usual manner, using lemon flavored gela-tin or the plain unflavored gelatin and following the standard recipe. Turn into molds which have been rinsed with cold water. Fill molds about one-fourt- h full. Let this gela-tin harden. Then fill molds with a combination of chopped apple, grat-ed coconut celery and a bit of chopped pimento for flavor. To two cups gelatin, use one cup chopp?d apple, two-third- s cup chopped cel-ery, one pimento and one-ha- lf cup grated coconut. Fill molds with gelatin and chill until firm. Serve on salad greens with French dress-ing or a sour cream dressing. Released by WNU Features LYNN SAYS: Color, Flavor Contrast Will Whet Appetite If you don't want warmer weather to wilt appetites, keep in mind in-teresting texture, flavor and color contrasts in preparing foods. No appetite wanes when food platts look pretty. Roll oranges and lemons until slightly soft before squeezing to get more Juice. For crisp, dry bacon, broil on a cake rack. Drain on unglazed paper. Vegetable plates are interesting if they are carefully planned. Have you tried a nest of spinach with poached eggs. French fried onions, tomato stuffed with peas and cream-ed carrots? Here's an idea that's as good as it is beautiful: Broccoli with sauce, sliced beets, corn fritters and green peas. Stuff peppers with Spanish rice, then serve them on the same plate with buttered carrots, fried eggplant and cole slaw with Russian dressina MAKE A FROCK IN CRISP CHECKS I I A slmP1 delta ' (JJ1jPJj dr. to detest fc ..

FIRST AID TO AILING nOUSES By Roger Whitman QUESTION: Is there anything that I could use to fill rather wide cracks which have appeared be-tween baseboard and moulding? ANSWER: That Joint can be closed with a form of moulding called quarter-roun- d. This should be attached not to the baseboard or flooring, but by long nails passing at an angle through the opening be-tween baseboard and flooring and Into the timber behind. There will be continual movement in the floor-ing and baseboard through the sea-sons, and secured in this manner the Joint will remain covered. LET'S TALK ABOUT yoiL BY CHARLES B. ROTH Tact A Daily Need One of the chief qualities of those whom you like and admire is a quality known as tact Chances are that in your lifetime you've known very few men and women who were completely tactful. But haven't you known scores and scores who were not? You know the kind I mean men and women who always are saying untactful things that make you un-happy, that fill you with doubts about yourself, that give you moments when you wonder whether there is such a thing as a kindly person in the world. Tact is without doubt the essence of charm, graciousness and of gentleness. But do you know what it Is? It's merely the perception of what to do or say under delicate or diffi-cult circumstances. That's a defini-tion of tact But tact is much more than a definition really. Tact is really a way of life. You can't be tactful unless you are thinking about other people, about what they like, about their rights and feelings more than you thinft about your own. The real value of tact in your life is that it relieves tension and glosses over situations that might endanger friendships or cause you to lose self-respe-in the eyes of other persons. If you have tact you balance both sides and never willfully offend an-other person. At the risk of appearing untactful, let me tell you that no one ever Is born with tact but everyone who ever had it acquired !t And you can acquire it Just as easily and just as surely as anyone else can. Do you want to know how? I've already hinted at that earlier In this article. I hinted at this when I said that if you wanted to be tact-ful you had to think more about the other person than you think about yourself. And that's the advice 1 am going to give you now. Think of that other person, try to see his viewpoint, try to see what his likes and dislikes are. Ask yourself what yon would do If your respective roles were re-versed. And then when you ex-press yourself either by word or action, express yourself in unsel-fishness In the way you think he would like you to.
