By JANS M'LEAN. " ; , . . The factory was a grim, smoke stained place with windows that look ed out on a narrow dirty" street. There was a constant buzz of machin ery whirring, and clashing ana tne( new girls always found that hardest of all to get used to. The work itself wasn't hard. "', It meant simply the turning of a lever, the pulling of a handle, minute after minute, hour after hour, day after day, week after week, until the thing became a habit and the habit a monotony almost impossible to face with a brave heart. When Bertha came to work in the factory, she was given her own spe cial' piece of work to do. If Bertha had had an education she would have realized that the feeling she had at h hixrinninff of her day's work was akin to hopelessness, but she did not stop to think about it ana so sne ac cepted her lot far more philosophical ly than many of those do who have easy . tasks ;nd hours of light and .iin.hitl. . .. r."' ' r'. She arrived at trie factory at 8 o'clock.. She worked six days in the week and received $5 a week for her labor. She was the daughter of a wMnw who had two other children in aimnnrt. and from the time she had first walked she had dreamed of the day when she could bring home ner own money to ner motner. , . All dav lona- Bertha sat near a din bv window with a dirty black wall for her- outlooK ana aia me worn re quired of her. She developed slowly into a regular little machine herself and her work became proportionately easy. No one cared whether . tne work was made interesting, no one cared whether Bertha liked doing it or not. As long as she did her part toward the great whole she was left in peace and her thoughts were her own to do as she liked with. One day the manager walked down the grim room with a sweet faced woman at his side. Bertha was busy singing away, her round, stolid lit tle, face turned toward the ray of light that the window threw acrcjss her work. . She1 was too absorbed with her own thoughts to look at the lady, but her hands mechanically kept up .u.:. i t: ' i u.. .u:n i;.. men uua, iuuiiiic aim lie, oiiiiii tle voice sane out the crude melody L .f . , . t. , , , i ii r oi a song mat sne naa ncaru on mv street. Suddenly she was conscious of the fact that some one was speak ing to her, some one was saying above the noise and the clamor: "Do you sing at your work like this every day? Today it is raining, and you are singing about the sun," Bertha A srrinned. "Sure,' she re sponded, not at all shyly. "It sort of shuts out the noise. The manager scowled under his heavy eyebrows, but the worsari spoke again. ' Are you happy at your woricr , "Sure, I'm hapny. i don't think about my work; I'm too busy." The manager passed on, and the lady, interested, questioned Bertha again. The story came out. all the dreams about the country, the pigs and the chickens and milking the enws. ' "Do you think you'd like the country?" Do I think I'd like it?" And Ber tha regarded the stranger supercili ously. Sav. are vou kiddinK mef Again the woman smiled. "Im go ing to send you away tor two weeks, child, where you can see all the green grass you want to and where there will be a brook to wade in." And then Bertha's face did change, -from doubt to awe. "Saturday .I'll come for you," the woman went on. -"I'll speak to the manager; it will be alt right." And with a smile, she passed down the lonK room. Bertha looked around at the other girls dazedly. "That's what you get for singing," siW Maggie Flynn. "Gee, you're the lucky kid 1" ' lomrir ikche ak:zii scsm' GirhWhoAre Dangerous By DOROTHY DIX. I To each man his own fear of some particular type of girl, for, in order that there might be bachelors in the world to fill in at dinner parties and act as godfathers to other people's WrlHipa. and all wise providence has ordained that the woman who is as fatal as angina pectoris to one man doesn't even raise a flutter of the pulse in another. But all girls are dangerous girls ta .nm mini an A that's whv men allV over the country are humming and singing these lines from that popular song success, "You're a Dangerous Girl." . ... And, brothers, that's a particularly good and appropriate song! for this season of the year. No wonder you are haying it played "by request" by ' the orchestras on roof gardens, and that you are plunk-plunking it out on L. banjos as you loll on the cushions of canoes "on moonlight nights, and If that you whistle, and hum, and roacr". it at the top ot your voices along me shady pathways of mountain resorts, for the Summer Girl is a Dangerous Girl. wherever you find her, and you need all the help 'you can get from music, or anything else, to resist her enchantment. Here sne. comes, brother. Its 11 o'clock at night in a make-believe grape arbor aop of a hotel where everything is as high as the prices, and everything is artificial from the grapevines to the winds that flutter the table cloths. - Enter the siren. Gold in her hair. Painted snowon her brow. Painted' roses on her cheeks and mouth. Look of the hunt ress in her eyes. Laughter that is like the cracking of thorns on her lips. The foolish hae- branded her as a dangerous girl, but she's dan gerous only to men who are in their first or second childhood. You can shrug your shoulders as the cynical orchestra strikes up the first notes of You re a Dangerous oiri. X Then there's the domestic gin. brother. Mot a dh snowy, juu uuy. No man would ever stop to stare after her in the street. She doesn t Irnnw whether a cocktail is a new kind of canned goods or war ammu nition, but she can make the best angel food you ever tasted in youi life, and whenou go to see her oifs Sunday night, she always asks you to stay to supper, and the things she does with a chafing, dish. Of course you have no intention of getting married for ever and ever so long, and the very reason that you fall into the way of coming to see the domestic uiri so uircu because you teel so sale witn ner. Nevertheless, wnen aunuay mgui a supper is over, and when filled with chicken a la king, and peace ana tenderness, you return to the par- ilor, rush to the victrola, put on tne N'Darigerous Girl" record, and play I it with a loud needle. . 1 And there's the feirl who works m the office at the desk next to yours. Nice little thing. Trim and neat in her trig little tailor made' suits and her mannish little flat heeled boots. ' Complete, , too. . Draws ., down very nearly as good a pay envelope- as you do. And the best of good (fellows. Reason you,, like her n mtirh ia because sheisn't al- fways expecting you to pay her com pliments, or maKe love to ner.. ju can talk to her as sensibly as you could, to another man, only er with a something different you couldnlt say to another man, if you art what I mean. She isn't dangerous. Oh, dear no. Vnn'H no more think of falling Invp with her than vou would with your little brother. It's friendship vou feel for her. Nothing bu. friendshiD that makes you want kill that fool of a Smith who s taken to hanging around her desk, and makes you so f'gety you can't settle to your work until you see ' her sleek head bending over her ledger of a morning. ' tOf course you're not falling in love with her, oh, dear, no, but just as a precautionary measureyou'd bet ter hire a hurdy gurdy to play "You're a Dangerous Girl," under tfe office window three or four times during the course of the day. Then there's the girl who's just girl, and looks as harmless as a kitten. She wears white, fluffy thinss. and she looks up at you as if you had hune the m6on and made a good job of it, and she's so little. and clinging, ana neipiess, tnat a man begins to pet her as instinct ively as he would a child. And, ot course, you can t help see ing that you've made an impression on her tender little heart, and then you begin to think that all things considered, you'd better be getting out of the radius of those big, blue eyes,, and you tell her youve come to say good-bye, and she begins to weep, and . in i th y lip jT T Beautify the Complexion W TEN DATS Nadinola CREAM yTht Uncqtialed BuutUkr VSZ3 AVD EXDORSgD p ET T.IOCSANDS Guaranteed to remon tia, frechlo, pimples, liver spots, etc. Extra nw , cases about twenty days ftlda pores and tissues of ' Impurities Leaves the skin clear, soft, healthy Two sties, 50c. and $1.00.
