Dainty and different, 'ellm and sweet,
She smiled on tho sinner she chanced to meet,
And her eyes for an Instant seemed to shine,
Not like eyes that are bright with wine,
Not like eyes that are hard and cold
From gazing at things that are left untold.
They questioned his, and bo camo to know
All he had been In the long ago,
All that he was In the wilder years
Of riotous revel and wanton leers.
Girl though she was, she was quick to tell
All the falso gods ho had loved so well.
But ho felt, somehow, that sho understood
And found in his heart a mine of good.
Though ho said farewell to the maiden slim,
In the years to come sho will seem to him,
When he dreams of her In tho twilight's glow,
Like the strange, sweet Mary of long ago.

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

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.
"Quoting poetry, too; and his wlfa
came' round the corner. I felt so sorry
for her, I couldn't bear to look at her."
"Here he Is," said the sportive widow
to her escort. "Grandpa Googoo Eyes.
1 met him with his little girl this morn
ing and he stopped talking to her and
made an excuse to ask me the way
somewhere. You ought to see the way
he takes off his hat, ugh he makes me
shudder."

A beautiful Jewel deserves a rare set
tlnK. 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. Getting
away from peoplo and near to nature
will bring you back to the city ready (o

work. And If your 'best self means a
self minus ten or twelve pounds, why ex

this diet. For breakfast orange Juice, a

enjoyed. For luncheon two eggs, boiled
or poached, some very dry toast and tea
with lemon. For dinner-boiled fish or
roasted chicken, saled. and non-starchy

acid fresh fruit"

The Ether Theory
liy EDGAH LUCIBN LAKKIN.
Q. "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

with great appropriateness. Thus, if

A Token of Love
By IJBAT1UCK FAIRFAX.
"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
