or rather the display of your own neck due
to the necklessneoa of the dress In the

too awell for anything! Mrs. Set-up has
her cut an Inch lower! And her neck
Isn't a way-behlnd second to yours! Don't
you have that changed. It's simply smart L"
All of this explosive exhortation comes
from the dressmaker. She does not have to
wear the gown. She probably Is not a
woman whose social experience gives her
any very definite data about where you
will go and who will see you In your din
ner gown.
And you accept her verdict. The dress
remains an Inch below the modesty mark.
Now, would you like to know the effect
lta revelation had upon one manT For,
after all. urge the contrary as we will,
women do dress to please men as much at
least as to please themselves and each
other. So a man's point of view counts.
"Mlsa Margaret looks lovely tonight,
doesn't she?" I asked, looking across the
table at you.
The man swept us both who. a non
plussed glance.
"I well, I don't pretend to understand;
I gave understanding girls up as a hope
leas task long ago! but I shouldn't have
thought she would dress like that, and I
shouldn't have expected you to like It.
But then, as I said. I don't understand
girls!" he concluded, resignedly.
"And, Just at this moment, there Is a
man I don't understand. Suppose you ex
plain yourself." I suggested.
"It seems so simple to a man that he

Why Do Women
A writer In the San Francisco Chronicle,
evidently a wamnn, asserts the custom of
afternoon calling Is fast dying out and In
sists It never hsd any meaning or cause
for being. The writer continues:
"About the custom there was never any
real spirit of social Intercourse: no fellow
shlp, no gaiety, no lmnptus or argument
or differing points of view. It was a cus
tom insipid, restricted and petty a mere
habit of putting In an appearance at cer
tain stated hours in certain stated houses.
Nothing came of It. either good or bad.
"For the most part all she dos carry
away with her Is an Impression of dul
ness and general Insignificance of talk
mingled. It may be. with relief at the con
pclousnees of a tiresome duty accomplished.
She has shown herself, she has chattered,
shs has smiled and departed as soon ss
she decently could. But as for enjoying

time In explaining," he observed, his eyes
persistently on some one or something be
sides the pretty girl opposite In the low
cut gown.
"I d' n't understand and I am not giving
a seat In front of me to any woman on
the Intelligence paltform ao enlighten!"
"I can't see why the girls whose privil
ege It is to appeal to the best in men adopt
the methods of the women whose only
chance for consideration eomes to them
through the Influence of tbelr sex," he
said.
"You mean that the girls you would
marry attract you by the same way of
dressing that the ones you would not
marry affect?" I asked, so suddenly
stricken with a white light of revelation
that I couldn't quite be sure I compre
hended. That's It! I suppose a roan's a fool for
being disappointed when he does not find
what he does not deserve: but it's a knock
out blow to his best self, to the Illusions
he has cherished, when he discovers that
a girl Isn't modest."
Just at that moment he shot an angry,
fierce look across at you In your low
necked, too low-necked gown.
The dressmaker and your vanity had
cheated you. I raw it in that look. A
dream bad become a nightmare. The best
and the sweetest, the pure and the high
est the love that Is not content with body,
but clasps the loving flesh and soars with
It into realms unspeakably more wonder
fully ecstatic than passion ever opens, was
lost to you. And that look of angry disap
pointment told that the man resented your
t willful destruction of an Ideal.
Dressmakers' bills are notoriously exor
bitant; but the price you paid for that
t gown was preposterous.
Bore Each Other? j
herself well, one does not pay calls
for enjoyment.
"There must be a reason, of course, for
the fact that while man and man can be
Jolly together with ense and on the slight
est provocation woman and woman are
apt to be bored with each other. The
customary masculine explanation has at
least the merit of extreme simplicity. It is
merely this that women dislike each other,
naturally and Inevitably. You must not
really blame them, for they rannot help It;
they were born to dislike ench other being
born to like men so much that they have
neither time nor energy left to like any
thing else in the world. You do not, as a
rule, shine In the company of persons who
are antagonistic and obnoxious to you;
therefore, Veins a woman, you do not shino
when you rail and take tea with your
neighbors' wives. So there you are."

Three Rules
An old woman who always seemed to
be cheerful and happy was ence asked by
a young girl how she retained her joyous
outlook on life.
"I have three simple rules," said the
woman, "which I have followed since early
youth. The first Is this: Commit some
thing to memory every day. something
good. It needn't be much; three or four
j words will do. Just a pretty bit of a poem.
or a Bible verse.
"The second rule Is: Ixwk for something
pretty every day; and don't skip a day, or
It won't work.
My third rule Is now mind, don't skip a
day: Do something for somebody every
day. That is all there Is to It, dear."
These rules will work always and every
where, for women as well as for girls.

for Happiness
They are so plain any one can understand
them, so simple any one can carry them
out If they have the will.
Take the first rule, for instance. Not
only will the habit of committing some
beautiful things to memory every day make
of the mind a valuable storehouse, but It
will broaden one's outlook on life through
contact with the thoughts of others.
If one strives to see something pretty
every day the habit will soon become so
fixed that all of life Will seem to be seen
through rose colored glasses. And as for
doing something for some one every day
this is the best rule of all. It Is a rule
which will turn a farmhouse warm In the
chill of winter, and a tenement cool' In the
heat of summer; It will touch hardened
hearts with sympathy and make all hu
manity glad.
