They're here In full force the elderly flirts.','! met two of them down at the springs Just now. The first elderly flirt was a man, 45 If he was a day; straggling along behind his good, comfy, kindly, middle-aged wife making eyos at every girl of 20 years or so he met. I walked behind htm and heard the girl s after they had passed. I really wish he could have heard them; he would have been edified. "Here'a father again," said one pretty thing In plnki "Oh, do look, he'll get cross-eyed, ho ogles so." "I heard him calling the telephone girl 'honey' at the hotel this morning," said a sweet sister In blue, "and you should have seen .the face she made when he turned tho-other way." "Father certainly Is a giddy old thing," said tho prettiest of all, in mauve. "I fcaw him holding hands with teacher, tho one with the glasses,? out on the porch Just. at sunset.

Pauline Frederick's artistic little home, set high above the pavement with the beauty of a perfect vista of green Central park swirling In waves of at mosphere up to greet your delighted eyo furnishes exactly the background that this lpveltest of women should have. And this "loveliest of women" tho Zulelka of "Joseph and His Brethren" turns out to be a trimly smart ehlit waist girl, whose delightful sense ot humor and simple enthusiasm of manner clnlm place with picture prettlnoss In the category ot her charms. Instead of sitting back In lackadaisical loveliness and merely being In the pic ture, Miss Fredericks Is ever working and striving for success In her art, for su preme health of tho healthy out-of-doors, free-to-everyone-klnd, nnd for the supple slenderness that sho and Dame Fashion agree in admiring. "I like the idea of being Just as slender as perfect health will permit which means 'make haste, slowly' In the melting process. A lot of fresh air, and a little of food seem to produce the fewest num ber of pounds and the most health," said tho woman who has been called by Har rison Fisher the prettiest American girl. Once upon a time, my story goes, I trlea to melt twenty-flvo pounds all off at oner. I did it In five weeks and almost deprived my heart of the ability to work at tho same time. I used to swathe my body In sheets of medicated rubber, and thep finish my costume with a few sweat ers, and then go on little tramps up the Alps in tho neighborhood of Thun near Lucerne, you know. I was combining too many methods at once. The outdoor air of the mountain country Is a wonder ful tonic, pane exercise Is a reducing factor, and the medicated rubber has a Turkish bath effect In melting off rounds. But one thing at a time In the thinning process or good red blood and air-pumping lungs wll be reduced to trtere onlookers In the struggle for ex istence. "The simple life In summer Is a won derful topic hair down In braids so It can Join you In breathing in clean, pure air, and In breathing out paeons of pralno for the glory of out-of-doors.

"Is the ether theory necexsary for explanation of magnetic lines of force, the flow of electric currents through con ductors and the forces of gravity? Is it not possible that some of the substance of the magnets passes out and through space?" A. The passage of magnetism, heat, light or any other phase of radiant energy from sun through space seems to re quire the presence of ether In all spac and within all matter. In all problems of space-energy-trans-mission the ablest mathematicians have formulated equations seeking to discover properties of an ether that will convey light waves varying In length between limits of 33,000 and 63,000 to one Inch, with set specific speed of 1S6.280 miles per sec ond; and with rates of oscellatlon rang ing from 43 ti lllton for low red to 739 trillion per second for high violet. The results of the computations are diverse, varying In deduced densities from mil lions of time less than hydrogen to the enormous donslty of "2,000 million limes that of lead," according to J. J. Thoniion. I heard this great scientist, the dis coverer of the base of nature, electrons, say this. But this density ot ether, he OMAHA, FRIDAY, Al'dl ST 1913, National News Ah T Pauline Frederick Tells the Secret of H.r Great Charm and Dazzling Loveliness on the scintillating star.

The question comes In hero with great appropriateness. Thus, if electrons are shot 'from the sun with known velocity of light, and they surely are, then the density of ether exceed ingly close to the flying particle Is ot this aenormous degree. This deduction does not relate to the donslty of other In spaco when at absolute rest, If It can be quiescent. It may bo millions of times rarer than hydrogen. This Is unknown, for the most refined experiments ever made, those by Mlchelson, failed utterly to detect the exlstenco of ether, All that Is known Is that tho space sur rounding an electron Is an eluctrlo field whose Intensity Is powerful beyond all imagination. These are a few arguments for ether. The question Is, "Do not par ticles fly from magnets?" This may never bo known, for let 1,000,000 electrons per second escape from an ordinary steel magnet during 1,000,000 years, then only Instruments of precision could detect tho lOfcS.

"Do you think," writes a young girl, "that It Is proper for a girl to kiss a man when they are merely friends?" I onco heard a girl describe a box or candy an admirer sent her. "It was Just subllmo, sho gusnea. I never saw a grander, more magnifi cent, more beautiful, more arusuo or finer box of candy in all my we. woroa can't describe It" What words, would yon use," I re sponded dryly, "to describe the Grand Canyon?" Bho hod seen the Grand Canyon. After a moment' thought she replied that she would use the same; that sho knew no words tbat would express more than grand, magnificent, beautiful, ar tlstlo and tine. A girl asks If It U proper to kiss a man who is moreiy a inena. cupposo I enyt "Entirely proper. Ho Is a good friend; no wrong Is thought or Intended. Go ahead and kiss him." She kisses him. She klssea him often. for that Is a pleasure that once Indulged In knows no limit Some day she has a lover. It Is a parallel case with the girl who exhausted her adjectives on the box of chocolates nnd would havo to uso the same on the Grand Canyop. The lover asks for a kiss as proof of her love, and she gives) this man She loves with all heart, and who lovea her, the same prrfof of affection she gave n. man who was merely a friend; one who Is hero today and gone tomorrqw, and kissing all the girls who arc foolish, n6ugh to kiss when on his way. One of the greatest offenses a man can commit Is to kiss nnd tell. Hit coaxes a girt to kiss him, and the kiss, which is tincrt! with hor, la only a passing inci dent with htm. Ho laughs about it afterward, as ono laughs at ah easy conquest, and tells. It was gjven in all Innocence. It la not accepted as a proof of Innocence in tho more vulgar minds of men. It cheapens a girl In the eyes ot the man aha kissed, and degrades her In the eyes of those who hear of It Not any man can kiss her, hiit they get that Impression, and the love ofia girl whom any man can kiss Is not valued highly nor eagerly sought for. H Is a privilege with a price, and the girt pays. She commits no crime; sho is guilty ony ot folly, but It Is an In justice for which there Is no redress that one of her sex must always pay a greater prlco tor. tolly than ono of tho other sex pays for a crime. There Is a rule which clever wives heed. It is this, "Always leave some thing untold." Curiosity is the founda tion of Interest, and the man is always interested In his wlfo If she keeps htm guessing. There should be a rule somewhat simi lar In the gamo of love. "Don't gva all." The kiss should follow the engage ment ring. If It precedes it, there la usually no engagement If there are few kisses, there Is always a longing for more. The caress that la given grudgingly and shyly is tho caress most highly prised) , Love is all thera Is In lite, but It he. comes only a passing sentiment If treated lightly. The love that Is erreetnl with n. jklss that was given' the mere acquain tance of yesterday hever lingers long. Don't kiss this mere friend, my dear. Somehow, I can't believe that he la a real friend, or he would not ask It HEAL BABY'S ITCHING SKIN WITH RESINQL For babies tortured by eczema, prickly heat teething rash, or other Itching, burning skin eruptions, there la Instant relief In a warm bath with Reslnol Soap and a gentle application ot Reslnol.
