A problem that confront! every girl at
Home time or other Is where to draw
the line between prudery and prudero
In her dealings with men. She doesn
want to be a
prunes and prisms
sort of a girl,
one of the kind
who la alwaya on
the lookout for a
chock, and who
tskes hold of a
nan'a arm as if
she would prefer
to use the tonus
In touching- It.

and fearless, and
yet her malden'.l

any familiarity
frora one of the opposite sex, and ao
tha question of how to maintain a thua
f ar-and-no-further attitude toward men
becomes a very difficult one for a young
and Inexperienced girl.
The difficulty la further enhanced by
the fact that every normal gl.l desires
to be admired and to receive attention
from men, and ahe acea that the popu.nr
girls the girls who have howta of beaux
and are overrun . with Invltationa for
theatera and partlea anu every amuse
mentare the free-and-easy girls who
permit Jlttle. liberties ana In whose pres
ence a man doea not need to put much
restraint upon either h.m tongue or hta
manners.
An older woman could tell auch a girl
that ahe wi, taking a ahort view of the
uubject, and that while the faat woman
will alwaya get the moat service, admira
tion and attention from men, ahe la
seldom the woman that they marry.
They ilk to be with her when they want
nn hour's amusement, for ahe is Jolly
and amusing and easy to talk to, and
they have to make no effort to change
their mental attitude In. her presence.
ut when a man thinks of a woman as a
companion for a
lifetime, and not
day. he wants
something better,
pur e r, more
w o m a nly, and
one for whom he
has more respect.
Men are cruelly
I n e on alstent In
their, dealings
with women.
They amuse
themselves with
one type of
woman, and then
marry another. A
roan will teach a girl to drink cocktalla
and then refuse to marry her because
he doea it. He will spend weeks per
suading her to k!sa him, and then be
auspicious of her because she does It.
He will persuade a slrl to go to see a
problem play and then condemn her be
cause she went.
No girl need ever be afraid that ahe
hurts herself In a man's opinion by wo- I
manly reserve and dignity. He may laugh ;
I 1
at hir a bit for a little Puritan If she
won't go t restaurant with him without
a chaperon, and If the very suggestion
of an off-colored st.-ry drs her Inno
cent cheek with starlet, but in his heart
he rciccts her for it. She la the kind
of girl tliRt he would like his sister to
be and that he hunts up for himself
when he marries. '
If you will notice you will see that the
gay, biilllant, go d

maidenly reserve nay be found in the
fact that man's leading passion 1b the

No rnan cares tj kiss the Hps that are

Why We Quarreled
The Man Whose Wife Can't Keep a Secret Tells
His Story. . ' .
, By VIRGINIA: TERHUNUE VAN
DE WATER.
V
(Copyright, 1913, by Star Company.)
My wif cannot keep a secret. I eome-
times wonder if she Is utterly incapable
of doing so. 1 know Ruth would not talk
to mere acquaintances about my private
affairs. With people whom she does not
love ahe is the soul of discretion.
"I will be discreet." she will assure me
when I caution her.
"Secrets make their grave with me,"
he informed me once.
"You assist at their resurrection then!"
J retorted bitterly.
This was when she had taken her stater
5nto confidence wtth regard to a scheme
I had on loot for leaving the house by
which I was employed and accepting a'
nltuatlon offered me Dy another firm1 In
the same line of business. The position
would be ready for me In three months.
Jt would mean a larger salary. Natur
ally, until the matter was -settled and I
had told my present employer of my
plans, I wanted nothing said about them.
Vet, as Ruth's interests and mine are
one, I did feel that I ought to tell hoi
of the prospective rise In our fortunes.
All this time the was worried because
we were finding it hard to pay doctor's
bills which we had incurred when our
baby was born. To do this, yet meet all
current expenses, was somewhat ot a
problem.
"And a baby gels older our expenses
will increase," Iluth said, anxiously, one
evening. ' "Is there no sign of your get
ting a raise in sa'ary?"
"No," I told her, "there is not." Then,
as i saw ner iace ran ana xrve auuressea
look come Into her blue eyes, my con
science smote me because of my reticence.
Was she not my wife, ard had she not
a right to know r.f ny prospects?
So after warning her that what I was
about to tell her must be a profound
secret, I pound forth to her my hopes.
She was delighted.
"Oh," ahe sighed In happiness. "I am
so glad! In three months, you say, you
will take the new position?"
"Yes. if all goes well," I replied. "Hut
of course nobody knows of this except
ourselves,'- and the head of the firm tJ
which I am going."
"Of courso;" she echoed. "It would
not do to tell euts ders, would it?"
VNo," I eald. 'for If It got V my pres
ent employer he might feel trat he did
not caro to retain longer a man who was
going to leave so soon. I will notify
htm a month before I take my new
place."
Is it strange that I was stunned when,
a fortnight later, I waa informed by the
head of the concern for which I was still
working that my services would not be
required after a certain date six weeks
before I was to go to my new position?
"I understand." explained my employer,
"that you have accepted overtures from
another concern, rio, aa 1 know an able
nn who wants your place and would
stay here for some years, I may as well
break him In soon."
How could he have learned of my
plans? Ruth had eald nothing about
tin m. I assured myself. Yet when I
reached home that night I asked her

Tha Must Famous Using Urauty.
For the woman of 40 there exist the
two tnual dancers of excessive leanness
or excessive fat. Forty, a middle ground
of age, is not a middle amund of weight.
Nature's tendency Is to smother old age
In disfiguring layers of fat, or permit
tha soul to wear through lis thin, envel
oping layer of body. As persons grow
old they mut bat
tle the bent toward
coarse obesltv. or
tow ard wralthtlka
thinness. The ten
dency begins to
manifest Itself at or
before 0.
This tendency the
wonmn of 40 must
meet and conquer
with the weapon of
Intelligence. A criti
cal survey of her
figure In a duplex
or triple mirror will reveal the truth. Has
nature deslgmd her for a spore old wo
man? Phe muet decide, and. having de
cided, aha must checkmate nature, which
is prodlirnl and Inclined toward extreme.
If nature's plan la toward thlnnes she
must bountlfi'lty nourish her bodv. shut

ltient light meals Instend of the Ameri
can one of fewer and heavy onea It la
1-etter for persons of any ass t eat
every threa houra a Tittle than to eat
every five hcuira a great deal.
For the woman of 40 who fears that
about the matter. She waa very Indig
nant, "You might know I Vould not tell our
secret to any outsider!" she said.
"Did you tell it to anybody?" I Insisted.
She flushifl and stammered. "Why, no
that is, to nobody who would count;
only to Mary."
Mary is her tister.
It was my tarn to flush now, but with
sneer. "And Mary," I accused, "Is en
gaged to John Thorpe, who is on Inti
mate friend of the treaaurer of our con
cern. Good heavens, Ruth, can you ever
keep a secret?"
Then it was that she declared that se
crets made their grave with her, and 1
taunted . her with the fact that she res
urrected them. ,
"But," she argued, her voice quaver
ing "you told me not to talk to sny
ouu:der about this affair. And my own
sister is not an outsider, please, remem
ber." "She is to me," I returned, grimly. "I'
she had not had a drop of your blool
in her veins, ahe could hardly have dviiq
us a meaner turn."
"She did not mean to!" she exclaimed.
"You know Mary loves me and would
do anything for me. I think It's pretty
hard if I can't talk to the only sister 1
have in the world about what Interests
ne so closely."
"My secret is my secret!" I asserted.
"And th's be ng the raae you have no
risht to give It to another person."
I was cruel, the said. lld 1 mean to
imply that I would not trust her wll'i
another such confidence?
I meant just that, and I informed her
of this ft t.
I also reminded her of the time wbn
she had told her mother that the phytl
dans had found that my father's lllnens
was of an Insidious kind that was sap
ping his life away, and had ordered thai
he muat not suspect the nature of his
disease. Ruth tad considered It entirely
proper to tell this to her mother.
I also spoke of the time when she hsd
mentioned to her father that my brother
Jim was engaged, although Jim hxd
ufcked Ruth and me to keep It secret
for a while. Of course Ruth's fathe
said noth ng of the matter, being a man.
i added now trat I wished hla daughto
were capable of similar discretion, and
reminded her that we had qjarre'ed
over all these matters In turn upon man,
occasions, and 11 to no purpose.
"And t.ow we are at it again!" I burst
forth, "and a I because you think that
a secret Is a thing that one may sha'e
with a person one loves. Just as one
would share a box of cardy. A scent
la not violated unlets one tells it to out
tlders eh? That's It Isn't It?"
But she only repeated that ahe could
keep a secret as well as anyoudy In the
world could, and that I was tiorr.bly un
just. Perhaps I am but I cannot see It

New conditions create new types of per

and it Is my resolution, backed by the
fresh vigor stored away in my camp lifo
In among the redwood, to draw her.
I see the girl of the future as one whose
head dominates,' but who, by- very reason
of the exercise of her brain, always takes
her heart into counsel.
The greater exercise of her brain is de
manded by new responsibilities. There
is no doubt that eventually all women
will vote In the United States. 14 states
where they do not vote they are making
themselves ready to cast the ballot, un
derstand lugly, and with discernment and
discretion. Also the fact that girls are
becoming factors In economics, as proven
by every fifth one earning her living, Is
having its effect upon tha character.
Modifications in character carry with
them modifications In features. Any in
ternal change ' has its outward corre
spondence. The changes In the feminine face are
striking to those who know what those
changes mean. The lower Jaw is more
noticeable in woman's face than It has

Something like ten years ago Prof. Dol

declaring that the whole of space is
loaded with energy. Every cubic lhch

This energy resides
In what we call.
"ether," and out of
It come all the forms

the energy of the steam engine to electric
work by employing dyramo; we adapt
electric energy to lighting purposes by
employing a suitable lamp, and so on.
