How To Relieve Bronchitis Hawaiian Women Employ Old Art for Camouflage 7383 A There are shortages of all sorts but we get along famously, and look forward to days when we shall laugh at all this. By KATHLEEN NORRIS THAT is the matter A with a woman when she has everything that makes life desirable," writes Anne, "and yet her days are filled with restlessness and discontent? To an outsider's eye I would seem to be one of the fortunate women of the world, but in my own heart there is hardly ever a moment of happiness. "My husband is in the service," the letter goes on, "and we are stationed, through the peculiar and secret nature of his work, at a small, dull post. There are two other officers' families here, neither of the wives at all congenial to me, though intimate with each other. John is absorbed in his work, often returning to his laboratory after dinner, or going to bed exhausted as soon as he has finished it "My daughter, 10, is away at I can take walks, read school. books, knit, manicure my nails. We are in magnificently beautiful country, which no one at the post ever seems to see. I have a horse, but John doesn't like me to ride very far from the settlement alone. Exciting Early Tears. "Perhaps," Anne gtes on, "if I told you something of my earlier life you might understand the situation better. Don't think me vain, but it is only fair to say that my appearance marked me out from my very small-gir- l days for especial notice. I had my first offer of marriage at 14; at 17 I was in Hollywood, rapturous with excitement over being, in very small parts, to be sure, but actually in pictures. Here I met John, handsome, rich, clever, everything a girl's heart desires. He was 34 when at 18 I became his wife. That was 12 years ago. "After Nancy was born I was invalided for four years, gradually getting back to health and strength in the mountains of New Mexico. Here John, who had never done anything serious in his life, met the scientist who developed in him the real gift he apparently has for chemistry. And that was the end of fun for me I No more trips abroad, no more flying visits to New York to see the plays and buy hats; no more feeling myself pretty and admired. Long before America entered the war John was dedicated to this research that they say will be of great value to our armed forcts some day. Nearly Mad With Boredom. "He ts completely happy in hit work, Nancy loves her school, but what about me? I have a fine cook and housemaid; there Is plenty of money; but I am bored bored-bor- ed!

Later she wrote me that she had feared at that time she might lose the other eye, too; "which would have been quite a pity, wouldn't it," she said. "with the kiddies so small." However, the right eye was saved, "and even the baby's quite used to the black patch and crazy about her Mummy. So we're getting along splendidly; I've made lots of jam and the children have been wonderful with vegetables. I've gathered a few mothers and quite a flock of babies together, and we combine forces and have a sort of little school, and we've had the giving out of the things in the wonderful barrels. I did so want your granddaughter's coats for my girls, but they were sizes too small, and Just right for two other small sisters, who were too adorably happy to be so warm and smartl We've no men, of course, and shortages of all sorts of things that I won't list in this letter for I don't know how much you all over there know about it But we all get along famously, and look forward to days when we will laugh at all this." And she ends by asking me if the children on my ranch like good things for supper, and If they wouldn't like this war pudding that her youngsters In England adore. Somehow this simple recipe touched me more, brought me nearer to the situation, than has many an important pronouncement from war authorities.

Chest Colds, Bronchitis TWO SIDES In wartime, as in peace, there are two sides to every question. And the question of women's part in the war is no exception. The fact that we are all working toward the same end does not alter the fact that there are two ways of going about it the right way and the wrong. The "Anne" who writes to Kathleen Norris this week is taking the wrong way. How much better for all is the attitude of the cheerful woman who writes that they are "getting along famously" in spite of shortages, separation and even physical peril. Anne briefly that my one suggestion would be that she turn this dull interval in her exciting and luxurious existence into a book.
