"Hello. said the "Iron "voire of the
wife Into the telephone. "I've been
shopping and I'm ho lata that I thought
maybe yoa oiild go out home with me."
"What train tan you taker inquired the
Boss of the Establishment.
"The B:(r5." answered the lady.
"Sure.; I'll meet you at the station," the
Hosa answered, and sallied forth to get a
fresh shave that he might be fit to ac
company bis wife to their suburban villa.
It wa flfteon . minutes before etartlng
time when he reached the station and he
knew hli habitually dilatory spouse had
not bad time to make the longer trip from
the shopping district. Ho he settled him
self at the mouth of the subway entrance
to wait for her.
For five minutes the Boss stood thTre
patiently enounli. It was only now and
then that a woman passenger bridled un
ar bis close scrutiny and managed by
subtle pantomime to convey the Impres
sion that he was trying to flirt with her
and that his attentions were decidedly un
welcome. The poor Boss, who did not know what
dreas bis wife was wearing, was merely
trying to select the lady of his hearth
from the crowd of returning bargain hunt
ers, and his face flushed uncomfortably
and set In rigid lines under the obvious
misinterpretation of his wholly Innocent
glance.
The perception that women misunder
stood him was only less poignantly disa
greeable than the realisation that men
did not.
On the whole, a man would rather be
uapected by bis own kind of villainy
where women are concerned than of ex
cessive good nature.
"I suppose those fellows all know I'm
waiting for a woman and are saying:
Toor thing; I don't blame his girl for
standing him up."
Fired by this tormenting picture, he de
cided ' that he " would not wait a minute
longer and consulted his watoh.
It was eight minutes past t and the train
his wife had said she would take had
pulled out from the station.
Should he wait for the next train or go
' back to New Tork and by returning at a
late hour that evening teach his wife a
much needed lesson 7
Being a fairly well trained husband, the
Doss decided to give his spouse another
thanoe, or, to be accurate, another train.
So he waited till the 1:32 had departed
and then determined that wife or no wife
he would take the 4:08 to Mountainvllle.
rfs did so. but by that time bis resent
ment had ohanged to alarm and It was In
vain that reason told him the subway
must be blocked and his wife, held up
between two stations, was unable to com
municate the cause of her delay.
No, she must have been run overi He
had always cautioned her against her
nabtt. of walking In front of street cars
and automobiles with the placid uncon
cern of a trafflo policeman. " .
' Perhaps there would be some message
from her at the house. If sot he would
take the first train back to New Tork and
look tor her. ..... ;

Unless a Man is a Woman's
Escort He Must Not Pay Her Pare
The; matter of car fare Is one in which
common sense at times must enter, for
what might be required at one moment of
a man would be entirely cut of place at
another. If the man whom you know had
paid your fare the other day you might
have been warranted In thinking him In
trusive. Ton had not entered the car with him;
you were by yourself. You had expected
to pay your fare, and there might have
been soma reason why you might not wish
to accept the favor from him. The actual
manor' value of a fare Is small, of course,
but the fact that it has been paid for a
woman puts her under a certain obliga
tion to the man.
I rsmember an Instance not unlike It In
which a man offended a woman by paying
when it was not expected of him.
Ia this case the woman took a cab at
the station and told the man who had
met her she would put him down at his
Jub on the way to her own home. When
the woman arrived at htr house, and was

his evening paper, and when' a man
shambled over his feet upon getting out
at an Intermediate station the Boss prowled
at him with a ferocity his dog Woof-Woof
had never attained.
When Mountainvllle was at last reached
the thoroughly alarmed Bort started hur
riedly across the tricks to a telephone
booth.
By calling up his Mountainvllle number
he would learn a few minutes sooner If
his wife had been heard from.
But what was It he saw sauntering gaily
down the hill to meet himT

smiling and looking as if she had never

A great wave of relief rose In the Boss'
breast, and was promptly swallowed up
by a larger wavs of resentment.
So It was for that fresh, cheerful, un
concerned young person that he had been
worrying his heart out for the last two
hours!
"Bo sorry you Couldn't make my train,"
cooed the Bops' wife, "but. of course, I
knew you wouldn't want to wait for
you."
"Watt for me!" exclaimed the Boss In

"Why the 1:06. of course. I got aboard
very early and waited and waited for you.
I really thought I caught a glimpse of
you at the subway exit Just a the train
was pulling out"
The Boss swallowed hard.
Then he told his story as calmly as ha
could. But a thrill of anger was In his
final words.
"There I stood cooling my heels for two
hours waiting for you!" ha said. "You
bet I'll never do It again!"
"No," his wife retorted sweetly, "you

her the gentleman had paid for both when
he got out at the dub.
The woman was Incensed, and Justly, for
the carriage had been hired at her sug

he placed her In the position of forcing
him Into an expense he evidently had not
thought necessary. To put It another way,
she has 'invited him to be the guest and

The next time the man and woman met
the latter obliged him to accept the sum

"Following such treatment a piece of
dental or soft silk embroidery floss should
be passed between the teeth, and finally
the mouth should be rinsed. Brush, floss

"In the Image of Ood created he man."
Un. i:Z7.
"Thou hast made man but little lower
than Ood. '-n 8:5, R. V.
It would be unpardonable conceit for un
inspired man to pronounce such a euloKlum
on himself. His Inner consciousness and
his outer observation combine to prevent
him entertaining so exalted an opinion.
But Clod and one of Ood's sanest editorial
writers said these things of man. That
such expressions relative to the origin,
dignity and glory of man makes him feel
Tattered Is not to be concealed: that the
words come with good grace when emanat
ing from the source they do. While man
would truly like to believe they were all
true, yet a question naturally arises which
tends to moderate his conceit. This ques
tion frames Itself something like this, "Do
the texts refer to the Ideal or to the actual
man, to man as he may have been once
or to man as he knows himself to be now?"
A frank answer to this question will solve
the seemingly overstated Idea of the texts.
Man must be stripped of all sin. The devil
ish in hjm must be eliminated; the trail of
the serpent enters into the calculation.
Going back of these phases of his life, ele
ments that are glaringly protruding, we
may discover the man within the man, the
possible within the actual, and satisfy our
selves that the texts speak a solemn truth.
and that man after all is not unworthy of
Ills Divine prototype.
Admittedly man la noble. Even on the
bodily side of his being ho ranks first of
all created things. Man represented the
finest model from the Creator's almost in
finite store of possible creations. But it
Is not on the aide of the physical that
we are to believe we are made In Ood's
Image, Burn a conception would not be
tenable In the forum of man's reason. Man,
while proud of his pre-eminence as an ani
mal and as a material product, has yet
mors .justifiable grounds for believing In
his nobility. Man Is a moral and spiritual
being. It Isn't muscle but mind that digni
fies man and separates him from ail other
created things; it Isn't substance but spirit
that differentiates him from all other visi
ble objects. When Ood breathed Into man
he Imparted to man His own spirit. His
own nature. The holding to this view of
man's thinking, reasoning and moral facul
ties, does not permit the belief that our
human spirit Is a part or particle of the
Drrtns spirit.. Matter may be separated
and extended, but spirit is Indivisible. Each
body demands a new soul; God breathes

I have always maintained that colors
were mors becoming to middle aged, short
stout women than black that la, the aver
age woman of this build. An unduly stout
woman had better wear black, giving ths
neoessary relief by a light shade abovs the
bust line. A short person, even If stout
should wear a color In preference to blaok.
Brown and gray are not colors stout
women should choose, even In dark tones.
Instead navy blue, dark green, black, dark
red, eto., are appropriate.
Dull old rose and deep heliotrope are
also becoming to plump, middle aged
women.
Those who have been fair In their youth
should choose ths latter. Brunettes will
look best In old rose tints.
Materials with stripes that run length
wise are excellent I do not cars for the
pin strips In a contrasting color, such as
black and whits. This combination is
smart when worn by a slight woman.
Plaids and checks should be avoided by
short, stout women.

sense. Man spiritually In God's Image! Can
that be? Man, beastly, debauched and low

to auch creatures as made in His imairs?
Man, though, la something better, you say.
He Is sometimes cultured, refined and

reverent and eloquent. Kven when he la
this, he Is found to be at the same time
ambitious, selfish and sensitive. He Is a
slave to money, pride and prejudice.
Confessedly nun Is Ignoble. Noble as he
is actually and seemingly, he Is neverthe
less ignoble In a most real sense. He Is
a sinner. In this he falls short of Ood's
Image and must be Ignoble. Is It needful
that we stop and argue that sin is In man?
Need we stand midday under the warm
rays of the king oT the day and then argue
that the sun shines? Need rational minds
a demonstration for so universally an ob
struslve fact as that man Is a sinner? Do
not sorrows and sufferings, do not woes
and heartaches, do not clashtngs and con
flicts everywhere, give convincing evidence
to every man that the moral nature of
man la lamentably out of order? But In this
moral defect lies his majesty. Man, a
sinner, argues eloquently for either his

Luxurious looking muffs are now made
from Persian marquisette and marabou,
and their construction Is so simple that
any woman can fashion one for herself if
she Is handy with the needle.
To construct such a dress accessory a
pad of soft down covered with a thin,
closely woven material is a necessary
foundation. This is lined with a heavy
satin and the outside ts draped with the
marquisette, folded or shirred.
A band of the marabou trims the ends
and a third bow passes around the middle
of the muff.
Scarfs to match are easy to make at
home.
I suppose there is no more popular trim
ming than marlbou. It Is used on evening
gowns, wraps, bats, separate waists and
scarfs.
Ths latest Idea Is to trim the veil on

to Kin Is one of the greatest tributes he
lias paid him. We must surely be very
much like God to be his rival; to fare him
with determination to break his command
ments and tranares his will. A menace
or a blessing, this, according to the direc
tion of man'a willing. Unless we were
made not only In God's Image, but also as
the Psalmist assures us. "Just A little
lower than God himself," we could not
exercise such a superb prerogative. Fuch
personal Imperialism can work havoc with
any life that does not choose to control
and discipline It along the lines of life's
nobler impulses. Man, though, In his nat
ural state unrestrained and uninfluenced
by communicated Ideas and Ideals ran look
for but slight advantage from the pos
session of such privileges. Hers ws are
prepared to accept the thought that
happily, Ignoble man can be ennobled. But
for this fact few would boast of ths
doubtful privilege of saying, "No" to Ood.
To be able to say it is well; to Terrain

Long velvet coats, such as were worn

to his owl-like ofrsprlng. J
"Maybe he was looking for a good chance
to grab off a cook for the White House be
fore she got Into the clutches of the em
ployment agencies," guesses Son.
"He wanted to see for himself what class
of men and women are flocking here from
the lands across the sea." continues Father.
"The authorities tiled to prevent a man
from entering because he had flat feet, but
Taft put hla foot down sharply on that
kind of discrimination."
"A rase of coming out flat-footed on the
proposition," sniffs Son. "I don't see why
a guy with that brand of hoof can't make
Just as good a cltUen as the mutt with an
Ingrowing face."
"I presume the officials made their ruling
on the ground of physical disability," ex
plains Father. "They try to carry out the
immigration laws as carefully as possible."
"I didn't know a chap had to own an
Instep like a Broadway chorus girl wear
ing French heels as high as a pair of stilts
in order to pass a government examina-1
tion," says Son. "They've got enough red
tape down there at Kills Island to lassoo
almost any style of beauty that ever
came over the pond if they want to get
fussy. Some of those eagle-eyed inspec
tors would find fault with Appollo Belve
dere If he happened to comb his hair on
the off side of his marble brow."
"To make our American cltlsenship of
the highest type," ' declares Father,' "the
gates of our country need to be guarded
to eliminate undesirables."
"At that a bunch of 'em must be sneaked
in," asserts Son, "If we can believe the
doe .landed out by Terrible Teddy, the
Tooh Bah of Oyster Bay. To hear hira
sputter, the woods are full of undesirable
citizens."
"I understand tnat the president gave
Instructions that more discretion be used
in the future," Father hopefully offers.
"He said the United States needs as many
healthy, strong working-men as It can get."
"Now that Pauline Wayne, the new
Wlilte House cow, is on the Job," suggests
Son, 'Billy Taft knows It's no chinch to
be without a hired man to do ths chores.
In milking one of those highbrow cows
with a nervous temperament ths boy with
flat feet has a big advantage. When Bossy
decides it's time to kick over the milk pall
a bit of slapstick work with the No. 11
brogans is a great soother."

Daughters of
Miss Edith Matilda Thomas, one of ths
foremost living American poets. Is the
daughter of Frederick J. Thomas, at one
time a prominent teacher, and from whom
Miss Thomas inherits her high Idealism.
She was born In Chatham, O., In U&4. Her
ancestors on both sides of ths house were
of excellent New England stock, and not
a little of the passion In Miss Thomas'
poetry Is dus to this meeting of ths old
New England spirit with ths freer life of
the middle west
Mils Thomas' mother was a Sturges and
her great-grandfather on tho 6turgea side
served in ths revolutionary war. In Edith's
early childhood the family moved to Ken
ton and then to Bowling Green, both in
her native state, and in the latter town
her father died. In J8SL Mrs. Thomas soon
after removed to Geneva with .her two
-laughters,, and here Miss Thomas lived
until IKS, when shs csme to New York to
live. When a mere child Edith Thomas
first began to write, and sven at that early
age gave great promise. There was an un
usual quality In her work and a smooth
rhythm that Is rarely found In ths little
verses so often written by children. Her
parents very wisely fostered their daugh
ter's unusual gifts.
Miss Thomaa graduated from the Normal
school In Geneva In Wi, and after a brief
experience as a teaoher adopted literature
as a profession. During her school days
shs had written versa which appeared in
ths Ohio newspapers and which bad been
widely copied. Among those who wsrs first
to appreciate their beauty was ths lats
Helen Hunt Jackson, who Introduced ths
young author to the editors of the Atlantic
and the Century. Since that time Miss
Thomaa' verte has been seen In the leading
magazines.
Her books of verse Include "A New
Year's Masque." "The Round Year," 'Lyiirs
and Sonnets." "The Inverted Torch," "Fair
Shadowland," "In Rmslilneland." "In the
Young Woild " "A Winter K allow," "The

down on the old., farm. That's a Kood
place, too, for the Big Stl.k. because there
Is usually an ambitious mule, a fraction
cow or a fresh ehoat that needs brating
up."
"In permitting immigrants to enttr
America," Father further remarks, "it
must also be considered that they will
eventually take part In governing our
country."
"Don't worry about that, Pop," admon
ishes Son. "The boys on the Job of pick
ing hand made cltiaens can see at least
two votes lit every Guinea they slip the
papers to. Just leave It to them to try
to plant a bunch of Wops in a district
where they will do the most good."
"And of course." remembering Father
"there are the women Immigrants."
"No matter what couniry the damea hail
from," asserts Son, "they are usually able
to get by the yup wearing the blue suit
and the brass buttons. A bright smile
freyuently hides a pair of pigeon toes."
"It is a grave responsibility to permit
young women immigrants to land here,"
avers Father,, "as many of them will be
come the wives of our American youths."
"At that .ruminates Bon, "I'd rather
be the guy tbat says 'Welcome to our
city, little one," than 'the one who takes
out the marriage papers and agrees to
