T
to discussing and Illustrating

superfluous fleah or keeping In
check the tendency thereto that It
Is reirvshlng to And on woman possessed
til uii abundance of weight rejoicing over
fier good fortune. Writing to the New York
World ah Inalata that "fat women are all
right, and aa ahe admits weighing Sao
fkmnds, her word must be taken at par.
furthermore the tell her allin, willowy
bisters that " a mnjorlty of 'successful men
Want fat wlvea." Listen to her Joyous
song:
"I have weighed 300 pounds since 1 waa
a girl of IS, and I have had so much the
beat of the girts I knew who were thin and
dreamy that there Is no comparison to be
made,
' "In the first place, a fat girl has the best
Of the willowy creatures In ahowlnesa and'
In temperament. Usually ahe haa a Jolly
disposition, and that counts more with
mankind than looks.
; "I do not' think that they count for more
With mashers than the thin girl, but then
A masher la seldom a provider.
"The man you can depend on aa a steady
tnealtlcket producer likes a good disposi
tion, and if a man lovea a Woman In the
good old-faahloned way, be loves a lot of
her.
"Borne girls when they are fat get aensa
tive about It and hate to go out because
Chav have heard soma one make a aneerlng
or a foollah remark about their alee. That
it all a mistake. When I waa girl If any
Oct made a funny remark about my also I
lapped their face, and if it waa a boy too
big for me to whip I got soms boy to
promise to do It for me, and they generally
did. That made them reapeot me, and out
in Klrwln, Kan., where I grew up, they
treated me pretty near aa nice aa they did
any of the little doll faces that went in
my eel.
, "They say a fat woman baa such an
awful appetite, but I have sat with long,
thin Bernhardt-ahaped women who could
eat and drink more at a meal than I ever
ate In a week.
; "When you go Into a gathering of men
who have been successful and done things
and are living with the wife they really
love, you'll find that the majority of them
re fat, if they are over thirty-five, and
sometimes they get heavy under that.
' "That's because they are not worried as
to where the next month's rent la to come
from, and don't have to bother about where
the children are to get the clothes to go
to school with.
"I'll take any sinuous-form, poetic girl
and match her with a man who don't give
her any worry, but Just goes right ahead
doing the providing without any fuss, and
If she don't get fat she's not well. 1
"Where .women suffer with bad nerves,
that can't be so, but most any set of nerves
can be made practical by the use of cold
water baths and a dally exercise at not
worrying.
"I am the mother of eight children, and
the three girls are all going to be fat and
I'm glad of it.
"When my first husband was courting me
as a girl out in Kansas, there were two
girls who had willowy waists and moon
light eyes who would have given their
souls to have had him. He was a fine
.looking young fellow, and about the best
'available catch in those parts. He waa a
steady fellow and didn't know a line of
poetry. He waa the worst dancer I ever
tried to; waits with, but he could drive a
team of bronchoa further than, you wanted
to go.
"He never could sit still in the parlor
While any one waa playing sonatas and
rhapsodies on the organ, but he always had
a horse and runabout hitched around some
where that waa easy to get at.
"When he married me the rest of the
girls all wondered how It happened,
and one day when we had been having a
fuss I said to him: Dick, why did you ever
marry me r Then he made me feel fool
ish for being angry at him by replying:
Well, Jo, I'll tell you! When I thought
Of those other girls and thought of hav
ing bad luck any time, I thought I would
see them crying because they would have
to eat bacon and beans, but you always
seemed so natural and healthy that I al
ways figured that If we had any bad luck
you would be so robust it would take a1
long time to starve you out.'
"Dick never had cause to regret bis
choice, and If he hadn't against my advice
taken the Job of sheriff down in Durango,
and put himself in the way of being a
target for a lot of drunken law breakers,
he would tell you so himself.
"I am a champion of fat women, because
I' have made a great aucceaa of it, and I
have the word of lots of others. I know
that they are glad they're what they are.
and so I say to all complaining fat women i
Cheer up!' 1
Crael Treatment ( Mother.
"Few heart wounds go deeper, last'
longer, or cause a keener ache than when
a mother learns her daughter Is married
Without her knowledge, on the mere im
pulse of a hot aad heedless love affair,"
says the Philadelphia Press,
i "Buck marriages are often the fruit of
genuine love, hay about them the rosy
side ot romance and end happily, though
n marriage, as in all things human, haste
and happiness are a team rarely success
fully hitched to the same apple cart, aa
Eve, who picked the first apple In baste,
discovered. '
"The love of man ' and maid doubtless
has its lights. 80 has mother love. "A
mother comes nearer her daughter than
come any human beings in all life's round.
The daughter Is often unaware of this,
until she, too. Is the mother of a daughter.
The mother alone knows how deep, how
near, how tender and how invincible is
her love. She' cherishes its confidences.
In her inmost soul she worships her daugh
ter's affection. -

which a woman can be called, a daughter,
aa doee almost daily some heedless maid,
marries without her mother's knowledge,
the heart wound la deep. Inevitable and
Irremediable, often all the more when the
marriage Is one to which her mother would
gladly have consented, because the wound
Is causeless.
"Never again will there be quite the
unflawed confidence and trust which ex
Isted between mother and daughter before.
The daughter, as she gains life's best and
knows its holy relation, has wilfully thrown
away the dearest treasure of the past. A
moment's confidence, and an Instant's trust
In her mother's love and Judgment would
have carried this treasure on through life,
until she knew what It was to lose a
mother. When the pang comes, its keen
est pain to the daughter who has married
without her mother's consent, will be the
heart wound she inflicted, often unwittingly,
but none the less with torturing pain.
"No man whose love is worth having
In his heart of hearts desires to win It at
the cost of all this, and the daughter who
dretds her mother's knowledge of her mar
rl.lte has soms secret, perhaps unoonsclous
doubt, over her decision."
Honeymoon Enterprise.
Early In the winter, relates the New
Tork Times, a young American couple
decided to take their honeymoon trip with
a tourist excursion party booked for a
rather extensive trip through Southern
Europe and the orient.
t a cost of MOO
each. Including all expenses except per
sonal tips. The bridegroom provided him
self with two good cameras and an un
limited quantity of films, Intending to
make enough , photographs of out-of-the-way
soenes to cover part of his traveling
expenses. The bride had a very different
scheme In view. She had managed, when
engaging her passage, to secure promise
of aooommodatlons at the best hotels on
the Itinerary, such aa the Cecil In Lon
don, the Grand In Paris, Shepard's In
Cairo, and she saw to It that those prom
ises were rigidly fulfilled later on.
At every one of the twenty-three hotels
that she visited she procured hotel labels
for her trunks or hand baggage In as
great quantities aa possible. In some In
stances she obtained as many aa twenty
through Judicious tipping, in others only
six or eight. No matter If she stayed only
one day, she saw to It that her band bag
gage was labeled and meanwhile she
sought and found her opportunity to add
to her collection. At Monte Carlo and
other fashionable resorts she made shift
to secure labels from hotels which she
simply visited for that purpose. All told
she accumulated 230 by the end of the
trip. Also she bought 150 worth of Mal
tese lace at the moment of the ship's de
parture from that port, when the vendor
sold his entire stock at a ruinous reduc
tion rather than hold it over for the next
uncertainty.
Meanwhile her husband, who had lost
no opportunity in the photographing line,
had gathered together a valuable collec
tion of scenes which he displayed among
the passengers on his return trip, with
the frank explanation that he had made
them for the purpose of selling them at
home. Many of the passengers who were
without photographs offered good prices
for certain favorite scenes never less than
tl a picture, and sometimes $2. By the
time the photographer arrived, In New
Tork he had sold a little over 300 pictures
for $400. He disposed of the remaining
scenes to a magazine writer at $1 a picture.
All told, he cleared 1421, deducting the cost
of his materials.
The bride sold her Maltese lace for ex
actly four times the amount she paid for
it Then she set about the disposal of her
hotel checks by advertising to the effect
that she had a few of the kbove for sale
among the people who liked to give their
baggage a muoh-traveled appearance. She
received numerous answers, and so eager
were her customers to buy her odd wares
that she had no difficulty In obtaining $1
apiece for the labels. Her profits amounted
to $370, while her husband's reached
$421. Their four months' honeymoon, trip
cost them exactly $22
. Hew One Woman Succeeded.
Such success aa I have had, writes a
business woman in the Outlook, I trace
back to four cause :
First A father who would never answer
a question, at random, but invariably gave
me the clue by which I could find lor my-
self the information sought There Is noth-
lng ilk standing on your own feet, men
tally and physically. - -
Second An early training in accuracy at
an old fashioned English school, where a
slip in a date meant staying after hours to
write out a list of the kings of England,
with the dates of their ascension and the
riims of their wives.
Third A bit of advloe George W. Cable
put into one of his southern stories to this
effect '.'Be always worth to your employer
a little more than he pays you."
Fourth A phrase I came upon one day by
chance:' "Find out what your employer
least likes to do, and do it for him."

thoroughfare these warm evenings you
might imagine yourself on the Boardwalk
at Atlantic City, the plasa at Manhattan
Beach or the verandas at Saratoga. In-
stead of wearing a towering, weighty,
uncomfortable bunch of straw, feathers
and flowers or a dinky little sailor hat at
all, she gets her hslr done up In the after
noon, puts on her gown with the elbow
sleeves and goes to the theater in comfort.
As a matter of fact, it was the women
visiting New York who inaugurated the
costume of going to the theater and to
supper at the big restaurants bareheaded.
Tbey wander about hatleas In their uwti
towns and could see no reason for making
themselves uncomfortable when In New
York. Their New York sisters were quick
to see the advantage of the scheme and a
chance to display new styles in halrdreas-.

she did It, though. Before her time all

"The wife of William Kastes. one of the

eighteenth century. In passing- through the

Mrs. tastes decided to say nothing about It
"The paper In the vat which should have
been white, came out blue. Th workmen
were mystified, Castes enraged, while Mrs.
Eastes kept quiet. The upshot was that
me paper was soot to London, marked
'damaged.' to be sold for whatever It would
bring.
"The selling agent in London was shrewd.
He aaw that thla blue-tinted paper was
attractive. He declared it to bo a wonder

hot cakes at double the white paper's
price."

i Appreciates Her Salato.
A Philadelphia society woman who Is in
the habit of taking- long- drives and auto
trips into the country surprised her friends
the other day by ooquettlshly waving her
handkerchlef at a brakeman on a passing
freight train which hod held up their ma
chine at a wayside crossing. When her
companions demanded an explanation of
her queer aot ahe said: "I suppose It's
foolish of me, but It seems at if those
poor fellows had awfully lonesome work
and as it their bravery were not half ap
preciated. There they stand or sit on top
of thosa old cars for hours at a time, with
never a soul to talk to, with no one t,o no
tice if they should fall off even. I have a
lot of admiration for them. Every once in
a while one gets killed and nobody gives
the tragedy a second thought On a pas
senger train a brakeman can hobnob with
the men in the smoker, Indulge in conver
sation with helpless old women and little
children and get into touch with his kind,
but on those freight train a brakeman
must have a dreary time ot it They are
always ready to wave back at me and they
always act as if they appreciated my sa
lute. Sometimes they yell a few words of
greeting, as if they were glad to pass
the time of day with someone."

clothed in a gorgeous dress, white, and em
broidered with large, coarse flowers In a
brilliant hue, probably red; there are heavy
rings In her ears and on her hands and
three white ostrich feathers upon her hair.
Her havy face tells Its own stnry; the
hard, thin lines of her mouth, the square

malevolent in expression, are those of a
