They are for the . moral uplift of so

know that ..overy thought of his mind

and ruined lives, and so she had made
for herself this life of pain and loneliness.
But so sweet and patient and kind and
brave was she that her lesson seemed

Sister's beau comes to see her twice;' a
week and whenever he gets a ohonc he
tries to make love to ou, does heT
And once he gave you, a box of coijdy.
and once he Sent you two matinee ijclt
cts and didn't say one word to slater
about It, and he told you you were pretty
and said he liked, blue eyes and yours
aro blue, and what must you do about
He's, awfully good looking ind too lovely
for sister, you think?
Are you sure sister's beau really does
try. to rnako lovo to you,, or are you one
of tho girls who thinks every man who
saya a courteous word to her or pays a
little compliment Is in love with her?
Where's sister beau from?
The south. ,
They say all kinds of things down thcr6
to' every girl they meet and don't mean
a .word of them. , , .
-They would bo horrified to be taken
seriously their own girls are used to
them and know how to Uko them. This
may be what is tha trouble with sister's
beau.
He may be. trying to get you to like
him so you'll say a good word for mm to
sister. Borne men are Just that foolish,
Uttle sister and are you sure you don't
do some flirting, too? .
What do you say when he tries to
make love to' you what If fie did say
you are pretty maybe you are why
shouldn't he tell you so-and the bluo
eyes remark, what Is there so serious
in. that, do tell?
He'a probably said that to every blue
eyed girl he's' ever seen for years.
Think It all over, little sister, think It
over carefully and If you really be
lieve the man Is trlng to make real lovo
to you, there's Just one thing to dowalk
right into the room when he is visiting
lster, and tell her alt about it right be
fore Him. ' ' 14
That will give them both an equal
chance-and; of course, you would never
16t your own sister marry a heartless
flirt If you could help It,
Tell sister Just what he said, nnd what
he did, and tell It so he can hear and
then you've done your duty, and sister
will have to do hers, as she' sees It.
Too lively for sister is he how do you
know he Is?
Uvely men like quiet women, and lively
women like quiet men, didn't you know
that, little sister and what affair is It
of yours, anyway, as long as sister and
sister's beau are satisfied and happy?
You probably don't know half so much
about sister as you think you do or
about yous sister's beau either so be
very careful what you decide and what
you plan when it Involves other people's
affairs.
Of course, you owe your sister a duty,
and, of course, you should pay that ob
ligation If the man Is really what you
think ho Is. If he Is you don't want any
thing to do with him, do you?
If he's deceitful to sister he'll be de
ceitful to you. Oh, no, you are no won
drous exception, you belong to the regu
lar rule, Uttle ulster, blue eyes and lively
disposition and all. He'll fib to you If
he fibs to sister, and If he ribs to you two
he'll fib to every woman he knows, That's
his nature, and you and your little charms
and fascinations have not a thing In the
world to do with it.
You may be a. Cleopatra stunning
men's souls with alluring smiles, but
the chances are you are Just a romantlo
Httle girl, and sister's beau is having fun
with you. Not very kind fun or very fine
fun of a very fine art, but fun neverthe
lees for him.
Don't, deceive yourself one minute or
let him deceive you or .sister either, for
that matter. Think it all over carefully
and do what you would want stattr to do
' for you in your own cass.
I And listen don't believe alt that a man
says who tells you you are pretty. He
doesn't expect you to ypu know and If
ytu do, it Is so awkward not only for
him but for you don't you see, little
sister?

- Are you an Individual or an example of a cer
tain type? In all probability you have alwaya
prided yourself on being different from blhor' peo
ple. And . yet! Arid yet you clothe yourself so
that to tho casual observer you look .exacjily Uko
evry other woman who passes by for casual ob
oervation. - .
The world la In a hurry.
People are likely to glanco at you and tb form
a snap judgment based on what tho eye beholds In
that momentary glimpse.
Your appearance breakB the lco of acquaintance
ship for you.
If you wanfe to be an unnoted member of a uni
formed chorus, accept calmly tho clothes that are
offered to you as "So smart! Why, everyone Is
wearing .them I"
But If you want to glvo your personality a
chanco for a fair hearing, dross so that the.'oyo'of
the beholder will observe that you are an Individual.
Thenjthe mind will glvo you va fair chance and you
will be "one of the principals," not a mere member
of the chorus!
Today I am showing you two frocks and two"
hats of my own designing. My idea of a smartly
dtessed woman Is not a dressmaker's manikin.
It Is rather the woman who shows In every in
dividual line of her garments that, she has studied
Dame Fashion's demands and has, made a fow do
ruands of her own.
Reject, accept, modify and combine. But Jf you
aro a disciple of tho art of making living, breath
ing human beings attractive pictures, pray do not
wear a costume that you will see duplicated In
various grades and prices from Tallahassee to
Seattle.
Behold, then,- two of my gowns. They are
doubly "mine," because they are of my designing as
well as of my wearing.
Is not the black one a pet? And If the little
homo dressmaker does, not want to be so extrav
agant as to purchase black Chantllly lace, fine net
of point d'esprlt will make her a very dainty frock.
The upper bodice- Is kimono to the elbow. There
fitted cuffs of the. lace are added, A cross-ploce of
the lace comes between girdle and kimono. This
slopes high at the middle of the front and back and
narrows away at the underarm seam.
Tho walking stick tho high-massed rosos at tho
sldo of tho glrdlo, tho graduated necklaco all add
notes of individuality.
The little luco frock has a fitted velvet girdle
lengthening over ono hip. This soinowlmt modifies
the abrupt note of tho black glrdlo on white. Try
various slopfug lines in tho lowor edge of your gir
dle. Your eye will toll you which Is most flattering
to the lines of your flguro.
'This dress Illustrates a number of points I think
' you will do woll to consider. Tho skirt nurrowod
at tho hem und with a peg-top fullnusa at tho hip is
fashion's edict. See how I have modified and soft
ened this by tho shaped girdlo ft ml soft-pleated frill.
Tho neck 1b the universally becoming V In the
tiurpUce line. Over the surpllco under blouse Is 11
little "blouson" of tho black net. Tho Inner frill
forms A-Modlcl frill at the nock and a very becom
ing .background this black frill mukes. See how
whlto and clear your own skin will look If only
you find the right background!
.The long, slightly full slcevo, narrowing Into a
fitted cuff that extonds half way to tho elbow,
inakoo tho arm appear long and slendor and glvo3
the hand a very graceful appearance.
Tho black velvet hat has. a. soft swathing of
mallne. At either sldo of tho back are clusters of
roses from which upstanding aigrettes arise. Of
r course, aigrettes are not permitted here. Loops of
ribbon, quills, "fantasies" of ostrich or even soft
loops of mallne will take their place. If the nar
row lino of trimming massed at tho back Is not
good for your face, try this separated trimming.
Tho Idoa of my whole chat today is find what
suits you In tho catalogue of fashion; don't Just
suit yourself to the fashion. Express your own
perconalality In every way. And let the world feel
you aro going to do this bucauoa, of the individual
expression of tho clothes you' weur.
What is It
Cowards
Fear?

By WINIFRED BLACK.
Jupiter Is throwing off a new world,
they suy. I wonder who's on it? If you
could havo the ay, what would you do
about that world?
What would you
keep off of It of
a 1 1 tho human
qualities and all
tho human fallings
and oil tho human
vices, which would
you banish from
the new world If
you could?
I believe I'd tako

Cowardice Is at
the bottom of so
much that Is wrong
and foolish and
cruel, no much
that Is terrible In this world of ours. I'd
shut all the cowards out of the new
Jupiter If 1 had my say.
It's the coward that commits nearly all
tho murders. He's afraid some one will
kill htm. so he shoots first. He saw the
other man first. He saw the other man
put his hand toward his pocket, so he
grabbed his, knife.
Ho had heard that the other man was
looking for him, so ho didn't wait for him
to find him.
He Is too cowardly to ask a man for a
Job and stick to It, so he kills somebody
for money, or he's too cowardly to dany
himself luxuries ho cannot earn, so he
puts poison In the cup of his benofnetor.
I've seen many murderers, and I never
saw eno who was not at heart a coward
and who did not show It In every line of
his weakling face.
All the poor women who are left to
fight for a living for themselves and
their babies are left so by cowards men
who cannot face tlw. cold or who are
nfrald of the sun, or who fear to under
take any responsible work at all. 80
thoy run away and let their wives face
the cold and the heat and the worry
alone. Poor cowards I I wonder If they
can help It, really?
It Is tho cowardly girl who goes wrong.
Hho Ib nfrald of displeasing some onp If
she doesn't do as the "rest" do. 80 she

By RKATRIOR' FAIRFAX
He Doesn't Lovo Von,
Dear -Miss Fairfax: I have been keep
ing company with a young man 23 years
of age for two years. I had a diamond
ring from him at Christmas and some
how or other we had a quarrel and I re
turned the ring. He still calls to see
mo, but he never asked me to take the
ring again. Now he has gone to the
country for business purposes and sent
ine a few letters and I answered them,
Lately 1 wrote him several letters and he
never answered.
I am afraid, my dear, that you have'
lost him. I am very sorry, but, believe
me In this: Fretting will never bring him
back.
If he doesn't hunt you up when he re
turns and rendw his attentions It will
prove that he no longer cares. Love Is
so precious a possession I am more than
grieved that It was risked In a quarrel.
Trr Indifference.
Dear Miss Fairfax: I am IS and In love
vtlth a man three years my senior, and
we aro oinployed In the same place. When
I whs first employed there he spoke
quite often to me. Now he never shows
the slightest attention to me. Kindly
let me know how I can guln his love.
ANNA BKL,U
I am afraid that In your eagerness for
love, you havo showed him you care for
him.
Don't speak to him; don't look at him.
If there Is any tihance for his caring for
you, your Indifference will awaken his
Interest quicker than an attitude of in
terested anxiety.
I am so anxious for you to know the
Joy of loving and being loved that I
don't want you to lose It.
Try Htratrirr.
Dear Miss Fairfax: .Met two young
ladles two years ago, and became engaged
to one of them a year ago. We expect
to get married this year, but this other
young lady Is In our way. Wherever- we
go she goes with us.
1 do not speak to this young lady; and
I don't want her to come up to my lady
friend's home, but she Is there when I
am there. Hhe comes to my home on
Thursdays. jf. C.
I am quite sura you have exercised a
man's privilege and complained to your
fiancee, and Just as sure that it was
without effect.
Suppose you try being a little attentive
to this other woman. ; I am positive your
sweetheart will resent it and show her
lescntment by keeping the troublesome
third party away.
Certainly Wot.
Dear Mlu Fairfax: I have had many
girl und boy friends and they all aoted
nice until one tltne they all played false.
Now, should I break friendship with all
of them and stay home without friends?
II. 1L
And grow sour, suspicious and cynical?
Certainly not. Go out and make more
friends, and bo quite sure that none of
the blame of unfaithfulness lies at your
door, - i
. boy who couldn't add to save his life and
who never had a square meal till ho went
out nnd earnod one In tho one who "made
good" from my town. He-whs always a
fighter. Not quarrelsome .or bullying.
Ho'd do anything In reason for a little
boy and all the girls used (o beg him
to pull their sleds for them.. But one day
somebody said something' about his
mother and he whipped three boys in
succession nnd asked how many more
wanted a tasto of tho same medicine.
No coward, that boy. And -one.-of the
boys gave him a good,- hard beating, too,
but ho wouldn't give uphung on till the
boy's patience gave out and ho won.
That's tho way he .did when Jiewent
to town. Ho hung on. Ho wouldn't .give
up, and so ho won.
He's head of a big concern now and
the leading man In his city. He ran it
by courage nothing on earth , hut shoer,
bulldog courage. His cousin, from tho
san)o town, wits ' cleverer " than he,
quicker, had moro money,, a' better edu
cation, but he was a coward. He's a
clerk working for Redhead now and
grumbling nt the long hours he has to
keep.
Deceit, trickery, fraud knavery of all
sorts-look closely at them nil, and al
ways at the back of them stands somo
skulking coward. That's where he be
longs nnd whero he will stay In tho
background poor coward.
A woman escaped frorrfn "sanitarium"
the fither day. Bhe was sone ,and well,
but her relatives wanted her money, so
they shut her up, and wlfen she brought
suit for false Imprisonment It turned out
that half the village where she lived
knew that Bhe was a good woman being
cruelly wronged. And not ono of them
would protest why? Cowards, every ono
of thorn-shaking, trembling cowards
afraid somebody wouldo offended. One
man said his cousin was a doctor at tho
sanitarium nnd, of course, he
And one said his wife's slater married
the superintendent's brother and so, ot
course- .
And they weren't In the least ashamed
of themselves, didn't seeni :to know or
even suspect what It was that, thoy were
confessing. Count up any gang of
thieves and malefactors you 'ban find and
thoy'll be cowards-all dolngj-what some
stronger man than they tells them to do
for fear of what, I wonder?
What Is It the towards, fear,? f
I saw a man run over byastrcet car
the other day. It was plainly and clearly
the fault of the motorman. The con
ductor went through tho car asklnir do-
i'ciouii uii u. rowuea car
gave a namo and' addresa, . C-np said,
"You can't get me into this' And an
other grinned and said, J,Not friiC' "Jffbr
me," said a third.
And they went home"feellnif appartytly'
very proud that they had been so clever
os to "keep out of rtrnbfe Und let a
poor man's case against' the company
go for want of witnesses.
What did they fear, I wonder? Who
was It they stood In dread of?
"I knew that man was stealing his
partner poor for years. I often thought
I'd tell John about It. he's such a good
friend of mine: hut I thought I'd better
not."
Bo the "good friend" stood by and saw
poor, good John robbed, for fear of
what?
Keep the cowards off the new world,
ploasc, Mr. Jupiter, and seo what a Joy
ous place of abode It will be.
