Why, love hitn, of course, lov
him as he bad loved no other man
Lffore because the desert chieftain
tvirn so masterful.
That in brief, is the story and the
thesis of "The Sheik," the sensational
novel bv h. M. Hull, which every
one is reading or talking about. Thf.
, film version will be shown in uma
ha soon.
E. M. Hull maintain! throughout
nine 300 Daces that women like
rotieh and tumble methods in woo
x inar. oarticularlv petted, pampered
spoiled girls who have always, done
as they please. -
To the healthy male rwho woul
voo and win, hrre is the reeips:
Grab her; show- who s bossj
I'.ominale her,' bully her; declare your
mental and physical superiority.
Then she'll come groveling to you.
For after all, she is a woman, one
of the weaker sex. and a greater
strength delights her.
K. M. Hull is, indeed, a woman,
Edith by nanic. From her home m
London she has traveled in France,
Belgium, Italy. Holland, . Germany,
Bavaria. Switzerland. Algeria, India.
Spain and in Canada and the United
States. She knows the desert of
w hich she writes in "The Sheik" and
the Orient described . in "'ITie
Shadow of the liast," her forthcom
in a novel to be issued next During.
I.ike another English woman, more
iiotedas a novelist, who sprang into
fame, with the" sensational , book
"Three Weeks-.". Edith M. Hull
ngrces with Elinor Glyn about the
kind of men women like. ' '
Etinnr filvn'e Ideal.
"My ideal man must be as strong
as Samson, is courteous as Bayard
- - i r i ,r
rtim as aiuuHiuus as idyvn:uii, aaa
Elinor Glyn. - I haven t found quite
such a man yet, but in the great
western outdoors I have seen many
specimens who approach that ideal
much more, than any man I ever saw
in F.nglandi' . ; .
. "And your Amrican men have this
quality of . rugged strength, of firm
technique, which is so entrancing to
women." . .
"American men are ' too kind to
their women,", yas the way i Vincent
lilasco Ibanez put it. The Spanish
. novelist further expressed himself as
follows: ''', ' ;'
"American husbands are afraid of
their wives. They should be firm with
them. American woman love to.be
dominted. A woman likes a master
and not a 4Iave. Treat them rough
once in a while. Be a cave man
again, and your women will like it."
But Agnes Ayres, the film star who
was the recipient of such treatment
in the filming of "The Sheik," insists
that is no way to treat a lady.
"It's a worn out idea, started by
some one who wanted to be unique,"
A ,41 1 f
srtys ivi i.ia nyis, . J., uuu i uciicvc
a woman could ever learn to love a
man who1 had been brutal in the be
ginning. To mc, at cast, it seems
that always, no' matter - what; hap
pened, I would remember the past
and that I could not really care for
such a man." '
Not Brutal Strength. ,
s But Rudolph "Valentino, who
played the masterful 'Sheik in the
picturization of E. M. Hull's novel,
believes in Sheik methtds even when
away from the motion picture studio.
"A woman likes a man who makes
her do things," he declared with a
conviction admitting of no argument.
'Even if she be a suffragette or a so
called new' woman espousing femi
nism, she likes a strong malt.
"I don't mean J brutal strength,
necessarily, although, there, is , a Cer
tain type of woman to whom only
physical strength, appeals. ' He may
dominate her with., intellectual
strenggth, and some women like that
most. He may. combine brain and
brawn in his mastery of woman.
,. "When the English girl, played by
Agnes Ayres, fell into the hands of
the Sheik on the Arabian desert she
was a cold, indifferent Tom-boy. She
needed someone to arouse her. . No
European had ever interested her.
Then she met the Sheik, and lfc was
fcrutal. . -Ah
He Beat Her.
"He beat her mentally. He was
cruel. He dominated her. Yet it was
not she, but the masterful Sheik,
who was the victim, bectusc he fell
v Ii-kirA will, htV '
"While the - circumstances which
brought these two young persons
together on the desert are quite un
usual, still the emotions which there
asserted themselves arc universal,
although the degrees vary with the
individual, dependent upon race,
character, moods.
"Every woman and every man
Ioes according to his own makeup,
for there can be no absolute stand
ard of love and passion.
"Still, some principles seem es
tablished to me, and one of them is
that beauty alone gets very tiresome.
A woman cannot hold a man with
mere beauty unless she is also in
tellectual. Loveliness of face and fig
ure -becomes monotonous. Unattrac
tive women usually cultivate mental
and spiritual qualities to make up for
what they lack physically. Why
don't more ' pretty women look to
their intellect, rather than content
themselves lazily with mere looks?"
. Delightful Humna Touch
One of the most delightful human
touches in ?Thc v Swamp" Scssuc
Hayakawa's picture, shows the
' progress of a wedding in the tene
ment district in IS'ew York. .
In this section, where such events
are the signal for much excitement,
guests do not wait upon such a use
less formality as an invitation. The
entire neighborhood, mothers with
r-cepins children clinging to their
skirts, men on their way to and from
work, and kiddies with an c.cuse
for playing hookey from school,
turn out en masse to cbecr on the
blushing "bride and nonchalant
bridegroom.
