night's journey from here for a visit with
friends. The Judge In her absence made
headquarters with his daughter and thor
oughly enjoyed the opportunity this at

teresting grandson. Then to the Judge
there came an Imperative aummons from
the friends with whom his wife was visit
Ing, that he join the party and share in
the festivities. He packed his grip and
obeyed the command.
Arriving In the nearby ctty he was
amaaed by the greeting he received. His
wife was at the station. She started for
ward to greet him, smilingly. The smile
fled when aha cam up to him. A ma se
men t ' shone in her eyes:
"Why, James!" ah gasped. Then tried
to smile because her lifelong principle had
been to bellev that anything James did

"rUd!" she replied. "No, Indeed, It la
worse than that, much worse. It la black

"I don't know," the judge replied meekly,
The explanation, aa you may have sus

BY MARGARET WATTS DE PEYBTBR.
NEW YORK, Aug. 13.-The only doubt
that exists over the separation suit of Mrs.
Reginald Ronalds relates aa to where It
will be entered. Whether Mrs. Ronalds
111 enter it in this city, whether she will
go to Reno and aeek absolute divorce or
whether she will return to Erie, Pa., her
native town, are features of the case that
are now cavslng a great deal of gossip.
Reginald Ronalds is now In Europe. His
wife I in thl country. The Ronald

Newport and Washington claimed them for

be the ca'use for the separation. . "Incom

For the first time In the history of New

WOMAN'S POWER AND CHARM
Reasoned Adsairer Polats to Forty-
Five sus Glorious Period of
Life.
A certain staid contemporary has Just
discovered the powers and ths charm of
th woman of tf or 60 years of age. The
world discovered it long sine, comments
the New York Telegraph. The greatest
poem mankind has known Is that which
tells of Helen of Troy, and the mighty
Ills that followen on young Prince Paris'
lawless love of her. And th "fac that
launched a thousand ships and burnt th
topless towers of Ilium" was the fac of a
woman of 46. A thousand years later an
other woman plunged an empire far greater
than that of legendary Troy into general
battle. She was then a woman of 40, and
an Oriental 40. Her name was Cleopatra.
Nor do w imagine for one moment that
Cleopatra would have exercised over a
character and an Intellect aa powerful as
those of Mark Antony so boundless a sway
had she been a green girl, however beauti
ful. History attributes her victory over
Antony not shallow, perishable loveliness,
but to the grace and wlnsomeness of her
disposition, to th witchery of her com
panionship and to th enchanting "skill in
fitting herself to th mood" of th man
ah loved and sought to dominate. It was
the qualities In her that age could not
wither and which boredom that stales' all
things waa powerless to influence.
Indeed, we make far too much of youth,
in men as well as In women. It Is a fetish,
For It Is not In the youngest women that
are to be found the virtues and abilities
that tall the most heavily even In the
artificially defined sphere of women's am
bitions. - Youth is nearly always crude,
blundering, selfish and heartless and ig
norant. It ia here to enjoy and - not to
inspirit, to figii .or its choices, not to
forbear and assist. It knows little tolera
tion and Uvea for its own bright noonday.
These qualities, we need hardly say, sr
not thoss which bestow power or arouse
the better kinds of lovs. Youth, however,
grows beyond these grave faults. Life
deepens and softens character. The lessons
of error, suffering and sorrow round out
ths nature. At 46 a woman may hav
ceased to be young, but she Is far from
having become old. The age of real under
standing has begun, and understanding re
mains the greatest of all human forces.
Men sre drawn to women far more closely
by mental sympathy than by good looks.
There are but few very beautiful women in
the world. There are thousands of ideal
friendships between men and women.
Time and time again have we seen the
woman of 45, the woman who ia no longer
young, win the prises of life, right in ths
teeth of those crude enough to be her
daughters. Tho young can give their
youth, but the mature can give their help.
We all know outh in art, Ita enthus
iasm, its posltlvsness. Its self-sufficiency,
Its failure. It ia not until her youth has
passed away and nature beglna to be at
war with knowledge, craftsmanship and In
tention that the artist-actress, the artist
singer, achieves richest results. "You can
not play Juliet and look it," runs ths
melancholy theatrical proverb.
Herbert Hsyes of Stella, Neb., are also
of the party.
Mrs. Shedd snd Miss Helen Shedd of
Aahland. Neb., are spending the week-end
at Fort Crook as the guests of Mrs. Clem
ens McMlllsn. Miss Amy Ullmore and Miss

ing things, but Mrs. Flfl Porter Stlllman
haa introduced a "feature" to cause the
Jaded ones to take notice. After a recent
dinner party she disappeared and In half
an hour sent word to her guests of both

boudoir. There they found their hostees
in bed robed In a nightgown of most rav
ishing lace negligee. Her hair was stream
Ing down her back and she waa smoking a

smelled suspiciously like whltiky. The

Btlllman says that ahe has other new fea
tures for her Newport series of dinner
dancea. I am waiting with unconstrained
eagerness to know what they are.

cially constructed women's
shoe, made one else smaller at
the Instep and two sizes wider
In the sole. This gives a snug
fit over the instep and through
the heel and at the same time
allows the foot to rest wholly
on the sole, as it should, and
not on the uppers.
The stock is fine soft kid,
and the soles are flexible. We
have them in button and lace,
dress and common-sense toes.
Don't suffer with your feet
when you can get shoes like
these.

Health and Beauty Secrets
BT MRS.
Cinderella: Merely because your hus
band is hopelessly oald after waatlng ao
much money buying ready-prepared hair
tonlca is no reason why you should neglect
your hair. By simply adding a half pint
water to on ounce qulnsoln dissolved in
a half pint of alcohol, you can mak a
quinine Hair to mo that will positively de
stroy me germs in me scaip, atop ail irri
tation, splitting and falling hair, rsmov
dandruff and put your acalp in a healthy
condition. This tonic will not stain th
hair and will prov very refreshing snd
invigorating: rub' it into the hair roots
about twice a week and it will make your
nair son ana glossy.
R. F. D. : Yes, a white aummer dress
makes a stout girl look larger. You can
reduce your weight if you will dlsolve
four ouncea of parnotla In 1 pints of
hot water and take a lableipoonful before
each meal for two or three weeka. Thla
h armies, recipe cutM down flesh rapidly
without any injurious errect whatever,
and you will feel better when you are rid
of that superfluous fat.
H. D. C: This Is ths recipe for spuH
max complexion beautlfer you say all your
friends are talking about, but It la not
new and there is no reason why your
druggist should not know about It: IMn-
solve four ounces of spurmax in a half
pint of hot water and add two teaspoons
rul of glycerine. Put In a bottle and
shake well and it Is ready for use. Your
druggist ran get the spurmax from hla
wholesaler if he doesn't carry It In stock.
Yea, this lotion should bs used Instead of
fare powder. Apply It to the face, neck
and forearms with the palm of the hand
and rub until dry. It will not rub off or
how and "holds" againat perspiration.
It will make even a dark and oily akin
look frnh and youthful.
E. W.: Why don't you try going with
out spectacles fur a while? You say there
Is no constitutional defect in your eyes,
and thst spectacles make you look ten
yeara older than you really are. Let fine
print alone and drop In each eye dally a
few drops of a simple eye tonic made by
dissolving an ounce of crystos In a pint
of water. The tonic rests tired eyes, re
lieves redness snd Inflammation and
strengthens weak eyesight. It has proven
ao beneficial aa an eye remedy that many
oculists now recommend It exclusively
and I know It will help your eyea greatly.
. T)onna: Massaging with a good grease-
less face cream Is the best preventive
In the world against wrinkles and the ap
uaaranre of tut. It keeia the skin taut
and clean and the fleah firm and free
from flabblness. Gat from your druggist

J. K. M.t Ths electric needle for th "
removal of superfluous hairs Is an i pen
sive, painful and time-consuming opera
tion. A much easier and far laaa expen
sive method Is the application of delaton.
although delatone coats a dollar an ounce .
at retail. Una ounce Is all you will need,
however, for even should the hairs return
sfter ths first application, they will b
light-colored, thin and atraggly -and th
aecond or third application will rid you of
them permanently. Just mix a little dela
tone with enough water to make a paste,
covsre the hairs with thla paste and let
It remain two or three minutes. Then
wipe off and wash the skin with warm ,
