- Mrs. Millie Plush staged a "liv-
' ing model show" in an effort to dis
count the ability as a dressmaker
of Mrs. Marv Weinstock for the
benefit of Magistrate Olin T. Pan
coast, in the magistrate's office.
' Mrs. Plush declared the dress which
Mrs. VVeinstock had made for her
did not fit and she wanted her
money back.
"Why, Judge, look how tight
these sleeves are. I cannot bend
my arm." said Mrs. Plush, as she
exhibited the contour of a plump
;rm. Magistrate Pancost blushed
and stammered slightly and ner
vously whispered to Mrs. Plush
that the sleeves of her ahem er'r
that which she wore underneath
were too thick. He told Mrs. Plush
that if she wanted the new dress to
fit her perfectly she should dress
differently "beneath."
The modern Solomon decided that
Joth defendant and plaintiff were
somewhat 'at fault and divided the
costs between them.

In a Riot of Laugh
and Fun
"A VERY GOOD
YOUNG MAN"
Girls, did you ever meet a
fellow that was so all-fired good
that he got on your nerves?
Well, here he is, and the way he
tries to be bad and just can't will
make you roar and hold your
sides with laughs.
The Way the Motor Party
Started Off.
I was watching Alfred Durkeii
closely during his exchange of rail
lery with Rita Brown.
I saw him look at the girl curi
ously as she made the coquettish re
quest to sit with him in the front
seat of the new touring car and help
drive. Then as if involuntarily drawn
aside, I saw his eyes travel quickly
from her uplifted face to that of
Leila Fairfax, who was standing
with her hand upon the car, gazing
at it with shy admiration. Dicky,
who had come across the lawn at
a tearing pace,' forestalled whatever
answer Alfred meant to make by a
breathless announcement.
"I've fixed everything. Katie says
the Mater left strict orders not to
be disturbed when she went to sleep,
and she's still sleeping. I told our
'blessed damozel' to tell her we'd
been summoned away nothing
more. I'll break the news of the
car when we get back. And now
let's beat it before our news wakes
her."
"Well, if that horn didn't rouse
her, nothing less than a 'Big Bertha'
will!" Alfred Durkee turned to
Dicky with a trifle too obvious care
lessness. "Want to drive, old man?"
"Nothing doing," Dicky declared.
"I drove it out. That's enough for
one day. Get right into the front
seat, but remember to get down,
touch your cap and throw open the
door when we stop anywhere."
"Indeed, Alf shan't do anything of
the kind," Rita Brown purred with
an exaggerated air of protection.
"I'm going to sit right beside him,
and you can just do all the climb
ing in and out that's going yourself,
Dicky-bird."
Rita Is Displaced.
"I've got a better scheme than
that," Alfred Durkee declared, and
I noticed that he was careful not
to look at Rita Brown as he spoke.
"You can't suppress the Dicky-bird
successfully unless you sit near him.
It will take both you and Mrs.
Madge to put him in his place. And
I need a tranquil person next to me
say Lelia, for instance. You have
earned a rich reward, Rita says, by
your devotion to the strawberry jam.
What more could a girl ask?"
He threw open the door of the car
as he spoke, put his hand lightly on
Leila's arm and ushered her into the
coveted front seat with an irresist
ible air of self-gratulation and con
ceit which set us all laughing. But
two women held beneath their mer-

riment something deeper. Leila
Fairfax's fair, sensitive face was
flushed with embarrassment, which,
however, I shrewdly guessed was
strongly imbued with pleasure, and
her eyes were starry as she took her
seat.
There was no flush on Rita
Brown's face. With wonderful self
control her laugh rang out merrily
and her eyes held surface gayely.
But her natural pallor deepened, and
I, watching her closely, saw the fin
gers of the hand hanging loosely
against her skirt clench swiftly,
fiercely into the palm.
"I hope you'll be properly appre
ciative, Leila," she said lightly, then
mounted quickly to the tonneau,
scorning Dicky's assisting hand.
Dicky Winks.
"I only hope we'll all get back
alive. This cheering remark was
her next contribution to the conver
sation after Edith Fairfax, Dicky
and I had joined her in the ton
neau. "I didn't know you boys had
ever driven. Tell the truth how
many times have you had this thing
out before now?"
She had addressed her remark to
both men, turning her. head toward
Alfred Durkee a trifle as she spoke.
But he either didn't hear her or pre
tended not to, keeping on with a
long-winded dissertation upon the
car's merits addressed to Leila Fair
fax. Dicky, however, promptly took
up the gage.
"We've been trotting this thing
around for two weeks steady," he
declared. "And we've put it through
hoops, made it play 'dead,' and all
the other tricks. It eats out of both
our hands now. All we have to do
is to snap our fingers and it stands
up on its hind legs, makes a bow
and turns a somersault."
"I don't doubt your ability
to make it do that last little trick,"
Rita retorted disagreeably. "Oh, by
the way, Alf"
She turned to him with as brilliant
a smile as if he hadn't so greatly
affronted her but a few minutes be
fore. "Yes, m'lady. At your service,"
but he did not take his eyes, from
the road in front.
"I have to telephone to New York
in the next half hour or so. I meant
to do it at the house, but this un
expected trip put it out of my mind.
Will you lend me a quarter and stop
at the next drug store?"
"Surest thing you know," Alfred
returned cheerily, and Rita turned
back to us again, but not until I
had seen Dicky's left eyelid descend
upon his cheek in another long,
significant wink to me.
Evidently Dicky read something
into Rita's decision to telephone
which I had not yet fathomed.

Compares Grand Opera
in Berlin to Picnic:
Lunches Between Acts
Berlin (By Mail.) A night at
the Berlin opera is a picnic, in the
literal sense. In fact, it is like
camping out.
The interesting part of the former
royal opera now is the audience it
differs so materially from the pom
pous gatherings that filled the build
ing when Wilhelm was ruler of
Germany. The revolution has set
its mark -also on Berlin's opera de
votees. The glittering, gold braided ' uni
forms of the imperial era have dis
appeared. So have dress suits and
ven tuxedos. There is an occasion
al plain grey uniform. The rest are
common sack suits of cuts and
shades that for the most part date
back to the pre-war period. The
spirit of the audience is as flat as
the singing on the stage.
In pre-revolution 'times sumptu
ous supper parties were inevitable
opera sequels. Now the Berlin op
eragoers take their suppers between
acts. Everybody brings a package
of "stuellen," as they call sand
wiches, to the opera. And during
the ten or fifteen minutes intervals
between acts the vestibule and cor
ridors remind one strikingly of an
American Sunday excursion party.
Everybody without exception is
munching sandwiches black, un
buffered war bread, with goat sau
sage or choice cuts of rabbit steak.

Says Germany Tried to
Restore Monarchy in
New Chinese Republic
Tokio, Aug. 6. Defending : his
policy towards China during his
premiership, Marquis Okuma, has
made a statement that it was never
his intention to try to make a pro
tectorate out of China.
He declared that the movement
of Yuan Shi-Kai to make himself
emperor of China owed much to the
instigation of Germany and if
Yuan's ambition had been attained
and he had been proclaimed em
peror it was more than probable
that China would have been brought
under the complete away of Ger
many. At that time Japan tendered
advice to President Yuan, and
France and Great Britain took the
same view as Japan did, endeavor
ing to check the realization of Ger
many's designs.

THE EROTIC MOTIVE IN LITERATURE.
By Albert Mordell. Bonl & Liverlght.
$1.75.
"This work is an endeavor to ap
ply some ot the methods of psycho
analysis to literature. It attempts to
read closely between the lines of an

plication has been rendered fairly
unimpeachable by science and expe
rience.
"In studying literature thus," says
the author, 1 aim to trace a writer s
books to the outward and inner
events of his life and to reveal his
unconscious, or that part of his
psychic life of which he js unaware.
I try to show that unsuspected emo
tions of the writer have entered into
his literary productions."
