The End of the Romance

Bjr DOROTHY D1X.
i A middls aged woman, with hair that
was getting griuled and (ray. with a
form that wis losing 1U llthenc and
scttllns Into the gvmtneea of
fac where the rosea had faded and th
wrinkles wrra com.
tng. ahot hereelf a
few day. ago before
an open window
through which aha
could sea the. man

young girl who waa
her rival.

family. 8ho was
educated and re
fined. She had been
married and had
had an honorable
place In society, bnt
ah fell In lov with
a. man whom ah
believed to b her
affinity, and ah
had left all that a
woman ahould hold dear and tarred and
(allowed him.
for sixteen year the had known what
It wan, to endure ostracism, to have other
women draw away their skirt from her.
to know that people never mentioned her
nam without telUnc of her shame. She
had sacrificed everything for the man
Bd hla love, and he and hi love were
literally all that she had. Khe was de
pendent upon him for her happiness as
women of her kind are upon men. and as
ne food woman with blessed family ties
and friend and children and home ever
Is upon man. even her husband.
Sixteen year went by with the woman
living In lltU cottage, a Httle teolated
from Its neighbors, and across whose
doorstep fe visitors came. At first ahe
a happy madly, riotously happy. The
man spent every hour In her company
that he could spar from business, and
they loudly proclaimed that the only
BOne was "ll for love, and the world
well lost." Then as til year went by
lh man began to grow tired of her. He
did not com to see her so often. He waa
Irritable and Ill-tempered when he did
tome. Rumor reached her of his atten
tloos to other women.
The Cookee
The woman knew that his love for
her waa dying, and ah began that hope
lers and pathetic struggl that many a
woman make to hold a man who Is
wesry of her. and to blow Into fresh
flam a passion that ha burned Itself
out. and that I nothing but a little
pinch of dead ashes. 8n tried by all
Hi ana by which a desperate woman

self 'look pretty and attractive. She
studied how eh might not anger him.
he met hi own sngsr with gentleness
and forgiveness.
She Implored him. with tears and pray
ers, to com back to her, to be faithful
to her. Hh reminded him of ail that
ahe had given up for him. flhe pictured
to him her desolation If he left her.
But to no avail. Such a man always
follow the bent of hi fancy. He was
tired of lh woman. A new fancy beck
oned him, and at last the woman knew
herself forsaken and deserted. Che fol
lowed him to hi ewn home, where a
pretty young girl-young nough to be
her daughter was spending Christmas ere
with ' him. Ah looked through the un
shuttered window at the two, and then
she fired a bullet through her own heart,
and died In the snow on the doorstep of
the man whom she had once believed
to be worth th price of her own dis
honor. . , - ,
The story of this woman's life Is pot
a pevulla'r one. Kzoapt for a few dotalla
It Is the story of practically every mar

sakes husband and horns and respecta
bility for some man of whom aha n
amored. Tou cannot pick up a news
paper without reading of some such
woman, deserted by th lover for whom
she hae sacrificed her honor, who has
taken a bloody revenge by killing him, or
else. In deeps IrJ committed suicide.
It Is th Inevitable end of the romeiic

Th end of the romance Is alwavs tenre
nd aorrow unlesa Its first chapter Is
written In truth and honor. It sounds very
alluring to the dissatisfied married woman
to tell her that ahe has a right to hap
piness and love and to live her own life
In her own way. It sounds noble and
beautiful for a nun to tell her that ha
will take her away from an unsympa
thetic life and devote the balance of his
daya to mi kin her happy. She may con
vince herself that love Is the only bond
that ran hold people together.
That ts the beKlnnlng of what she thinks
a lilxli advent-ire and a rhapsody of love
and Joy. She doe not realise that once
th pursuit la ever, and eh Is his, the
man will tire of her. tfhe doe not
rcaJlte that In hi heart the man will
despise her because ah has been weak
enough to yield to him; that he will be
Jealous of her and distrustful of her, for
ha will argue to himself that the woman
who has been false to on man will be
tAlse to another.
She doe not foreee that In time her
life wlU become one mad, frantic, heart
breaking effjrt to hold a man who la
trying to gel away from her, and that
with every shred of Ihe dignity of her
womanhood torn Into tatters and dragged
Into Ihe durt. she will be on her knees
begging hlin not to forsake her.

wiy the romance ends for "th woman
who dares."
Novelists and poets have filled the
minds of sentimental women with glow
ing pictures of hs ecitacy of eaortflcing
everything fur love. This poor creature,
who shot herself while she looked through
lh window at Ihe man alas had adored
with her pretty young rival shows how
tills theory works out In sotuai II f. The
novel end when the. couple go away

Ev?rr woman' knovi tttat when she

on thr account? No. Indeed. Being

can be.
Kmc. Xaeterltnrk, who used to he
Georgette lblane when she was the Idol
of Parisian rates, says that the slavish
way women foilow fashion is their great
est folly. No doubt It Is. but It will take
a long time before a woman win not
envy some new trinket which some other
woman possesses and will stop maklnn
every possible effort to acquire the ammo
thing.
Why, evn row lots of women are

adoiit to her own style as suits a woman
of her Intelligence.
It Is the art of adapting things to suit
one's own personality that Is so hard to
learn and whku moae people totally
ignore.
Take the matter ot carrine, for in
stance. The woman who Is in the be
twixt and between age, who Is In no
longer quite young and yet can't quite
decide to admit it, well, she must never
wear earrings at all or she will appear
at least five years older than she says
she It and not especially youthful, though
she may look handsomer than before.
.Then the woman with the long, hag
gard face. Why she will always wear
earrings about an inch and a half long
and usually of a. sombre color which
throws a shadow on her sunken cheek?
Simply because a small, round-faced
woman whom 'kite adr.iires for those
curves which ahe doesn't possess displays
a pair of dangilng pendants at each ear.
If you have a long, oval face and are
rather thin, don't affect the dangling
earr.ngf. no matter how smart they
may be. They are not for you. A set of
opalescent pearls or ptnk coral beads or
balls which fit tightly to the ear will be
niucii better and make the face look
rounder.
But If yeu are large and Inclined to be
stout arear the pendant earrings by all
means. Long, black enamel earrings set
with diamonds are quite Impressive If
worn by the right p-rson and give a
majestic air to a person otherwise in
significantly dumpy. Bt. of course, they
win make her look older unless she has
reached th ace when she does not mind.
I wonder If there Is such an age.
Many people Insist that earrings are
Just a relic of barbarism Well, lots of
other nice things have come down to us
from barbarh; times, audi as bracelets
snd necklaces, and earrings with screws,
which do not require pierced ears, cer
tainly are quite harmless.
When the ears have been pierced,
however, it is a misfortune, as the small
hole always shows, and one should al
ways cover It with a small. Inconspicuous
jewel If one Is not Inclined to wear a
pair of modern earrings, some of which
reach to the shoulder.
American women make a great mis
take In wearing diamonds In their ears
during the daylight hours. Nothing Is as
fatal to beauty as the odious comparison
of the pure ray of the diamond and a
skin that might be better or eyes which
could be blighter.
lar!s are always becoming, and now
that alt gems are eofled so wonderfully,
any woman who wants to can at least
own excellent ImitatVma.
CoyaJs are moat becoming to brunettes,
but the turquoise Is the blond woman's
color and sets off by day or night ths
bide of her e'ca and the Sold of her hair.

Ask im young

Because th Ideal

In their minds.

There are million dollar palace along
