'Phoning a Man Out of a Position By DOROTHY DIX "Buy," asked the Bookkeeper, "did you hear tho going over the .boss gave the new clerk who was handing out sweet talk to his girl over the telephone? The old man was red-headed, and what he said raised a blister. , "He told that soft guy that If he thought this was a matrimonial bureau he had an other guess and a rnive-on coming to him. an that If he had any lady friends he wanted to tip them otr that this telephone was for business purposes only.

Indigestion and Stomach Misery Just Vanishes The moment "Pape's Diapep sin" reaches the stomach all distress goes.

If what you eat fermenU into stubborn lumps, you belch gas and eructate sour, undigested food and acid; head is dlxiy and aches; breath foul; tongue coated; your Inside filled with bile and indigestible waste, remember the moment "Pape's Dlapep sln' comes in contact with the stomach all such duitress vanishes. It's truly as tonishingalmost marvelous, and the Joy is its harmlessness. A large fifty-cent case of Pape's Dla pepsln will give you a hundred dollars' worth of satisfaction or your druggist hands you your money back. It's worth its weight in gold to men that gives you the double cross. That's the reason so many pretty boys are al ways out on a-hunt for a new Job.. "If a fellow wants to get queered in business, about the easiest way he can do it Is to have a lot of Mamies and iadles , and ' Carries "calling hint up at all times of day over the phone. "I'm no lady's favorite myself, and so I've escaped that particular hoodoo, I jt I've seen plenty of good fellows get sacked for no other reason than because a lot of silly girls seemed to think they had nothing to do but talk pink tea chatter over the telephone. i "I knew one fellow wha was the whole works as an expert accountant. He was a regular bear in figures, but he could never hold down a Job because he was simply telephoned out of every good thing that came his way. About the time he got busy of a morning, some bunch of dry goods with the "hello" mania would call him up to ask him who he didn't blow into the movies, or show up at the fudge party, and the boss would begin to give him the once over out of the slants of his eyes, and by the time a few other relays of his feminine ad mirers also demanded him at the tele phone booth, the poor fellow was done for. "It was your-servlce-ls-no-lortger-re-qulred' slip in his envelope on Saturday, and all of no fault of his except knowing a lot of women that were batty about the long-distance conversation, and who seemed never to get on to the fact that employers don't hire a man to waft hot air over the wires. I guess that If Mamie knew that her Archibald got cold feet every time he heard the telephone bell ring she'd cut out a few reams of con versation over Mr. Edison's cute little Invention. It's no way to graft a mans heart by Jeopardising his Job." "You never know how Idiotic a girl can be. anyway," said the Stenog rsDher. "until you hear the giggles and Imbecility that she pours into a tele phone receiver. It's enough to burn up even a copper wire. Did you ever listen to the intellectual chlrpfest that a sweet little thing will tear off? "It'll go like this. Business of calling ud an office or store, and having a man stopped from his work. Boss scowling. Man scared stiff. Then a voice over the 'phone: "Mapping silken ban ners, banked green ery blossoms, shift ing, laughter-struck crowds, like a giant harlequin." The sweetly .stifling !ark, the odorous - breath from the rustling wraps of pretty women up to their eyes In furs." The soul of the Horse Show Is there." The Horse Show just what the words, mean, so the Garden is. Can ypu say "Horse Show" and not hear trumpets, the rolling back of circus cUtee, the shuffle of slippered and booted feet, and the rattle of spurs, the glassy tinkle of woman-laughter, the vibrating, soft beat of hoofs going 'round and 'round without seeing flap ling silken banners, banked greenery and blos soms, shifting, laughter-struck crowds like a giant harlequin so varied In colors and restless it is without smelling the sweetly stifling tan bark, the odorous breath from the rustling wraps of pretty women up to the eyes In furs, and that heady flavor of something that intoxicates you into planning how you can own a horse, and a pretty wife Of your own? The soul of the show is there this year, the colors, and the dash, the laughter, the thin little gosling girls with the reed-like legs in terra cotta breeches,- the artillery officers, the pretty women (the busy and the Idle) and the feathers, . ell the festival taint and looming out of it all tte guest of honor, Monsieur Horse, dappled satin, and yearning to kirk the rail into whit tling, all because of the fires and the youth In his heart and legs. How I Discovered Myself Lillian Wald Tells of Her Settlement Success. By LILLIAN. WALD, Of the Henry Street Settlement. Borne people after a period of prepara tion announce themselves ready to take up a certain line of work which Is to be thelr's for life. My awakening was dif ferent, a single Incident startled me from the path I had been traveling, and I became a settlement worker on a cam paign for better social conditions.
