What's What By HELEN DECIE A young woman does not gain credit for superior knowledge when shj corrects her mother in the pres ence of others: on the contrary, the gneral verdict must be, "How gross ly ignorant she is!" For it is far worse to be ignorant of hlial duty than ignorant of grammar; it is more vulgar to be unmannerly than to be unfashionable. Education through textbooks and through fasliionbooks is common property nowadays, but good breed ing still remains the distinguishing mark of superiority. And good breeding never attempts to exalt it self by humiliating another. -To do that would be to play Humpty Dumpty with its high tradition, to have "the great fall" from which Humpty-Dumpty could rise never more. Consideration for others is the foundation of courtesy courtesy which has been defined so admirably as "benevolence irt small things." If politeness were merely surface polish it would have worn itself away long before our time. CopjPHht. 3921. by Public Ledger Co.)

Miss Council Bluffs: I have had many requests for methods of mak ings introductions. I will quote you fully from a well-known au thority: "The simplest method is always the best. Mrs. Edwards, may I pre sent Mr. Vincent, is a form properly used on almost any occasion Let me make you acquainted with is an awkward and now obsolete phrase. In introducing men to women, the woman's name is always spoken first and the gentleman is presented to the lady. Very frequently, where a man introduces one of his own sex to a woman, he uses the fol lowing as being somewhat more complimentary: Mrs. Edwards, Mr. Vincent wishes very much to be presented 'to you. When asking permission of a lady to bring up and introduce a man who is, a stranger, it is only necessary to say, Miss Brown, may I present my friend Blank, he is very eager to know you. "The imperative and too casual Mr. Brown, meet Mr. Jonca. has never been used by people of tht best taste. "In making a stranger known to a group of guests, a host or hostess, if. the newcomer is a woman, usually says, Mrs. Edwards, may I present Miss Brown. Miss Dora Brown, Captain Blank and Dr. Jones? But should it be necessary to perform this ceremony in behalf of a youni woman or of a gentleman, the mas ter or mistress of ceremonies may dispense with all superfluous word ing and mentioning first the rame of the stranger, specify the guests or friends present by their proper titles and surnames-Mlius: Miss Edwards, Mrs. Jones, Mrs. Mann, Mr. Mann. "The mistake must never be made of leading a lady about a room full of guests and introducing her to as many persons as possible. Only a debutante or a youthful member of society may be c6n ducted across a drawing room or ballroom, and then in order to be presented to a woman older than herself. When the .introduction to be made is of a man to a woman, HOLDING A Adele Garrison's Revelations How Madge Guessed Her Father'i Mission. I hastily picked up the two tiny pieces of yellow paper, stepped back into the room my father had just vacated, and closed the door. The good woman of the house, who had given me unstinted, smil ing permission to look over his room, was busy in her kitchen below stairs. I could hear her pinging about her work, and the other mem bers of her household were out doors. I was sure of being abso lutely undisturbed, for I had left Dicky in the car, smoking a cigar, his head on the seat, his feet on one of the doors, a picture of contented laziness. . With trembling fingers I turned the two pieces of paper over. One was absolutely blank. The other, evidently the edge of two lines, held on each line a fragment of a word. The first line showed the letters "ncc." the lower "ake," and a line of a letter before the "a," which might be almost any one of the alphabet. But to my mind, with its memories of the stressful times and the asso ciations of my father's work in secret diplomacy, it was an easy thine to reconstruct that telegram. "Come at o-nce. Allen Dra-ake." This must have been the message, no doubt the culmination of a pre arranged agreement, which had sent my father hurrying toward New York. New York? I repeated to my self. Washington was far more like-' ly his destination. As I stood there, there flashed into my mind the remembrance of a queer little speech my father had made when I had told him that Grace Draper had been released from prison.' t "So the wolves are abroad," he had said, thoughtfully. "Then it is indeed time for the old cogs to slip their leashes." Was it on account of Grace Drap er, fear of her possible plots Egainst me, that he had taken this trip? An Apprehension. I put the possibility from me with an amused little laugh at my own conceit. That Allen Drake had seen to it that a watch was kept upon the girl's movements I was practically certain, but that a man so busy and brilliant as he should summon a veteran of power and prestige like my father to a conference upon my perils was ridiculous. I knew there must be some other answer, some important task upon the tapis, and I felt my heart chill with inexplicable loneliness and ap prehension at the thought, which on account of Dicky's necessity should have cheered me, that with Grace Draper coming back into my Activities of Women Women now can hold office in Mis souri, the question having been car ried by a large majority in the recent state-wide election.

Lady Surma, first executive of the new Assyrian republic, practically created a nation when she obtained from England the grant of 80,000 the gentleman is always taken to ths lady. ' "Where there is evident difference in the ages of two women the younger is introduced to the elder Mrs. Brown, may 1 present Mrs. Jones? An unmarried .woman is in variably presented to a matron, un less the former is very obviously much the older person. Two ma trons between whose ages there is little distinction may be formally introduced by a mode that holds the balance of deference "due them quite even Mrs. Thompson, this is Mrs. Brown; Mrs. Brown, Mrs. Thompson.

HUSBAND New Phase of of a Wife life again both my father and Allen Drake would be far away from my vicinity. I put the tiny pieces of the tele gram carefully away in my purse for destruction when I should have op portunity, and went down to my waiting husband. "Well, old dear?" Dicky asked. "Did you gather up all the dis carded neckties and bills?" "There was very little to gather up." I replied sedately. "But I saw that everything was in order. The Irony of Fate. "So now its little soul is satisfied," he said banteringly. "All right, old dear, satisfy me by running me home and letting me measure those windows and doors in the corncrib. Will you have time to run up that stuff into curtains and draperies for me today? lerry Ticcr said Iw'd give me a hand with the thing this afternoon, cleaning it out and cut ting some windows' in the walls, and I'd like to put the, draperies up to morrow." I caught my breath in dismay. These were the.traditional "million things" for me to sec to before the coming of Katie and Jim on the morrow.- How was I to execute this unreasonable request of my hus band's I had no idea. His thought lessness was aggravated, also, by the fact that he had taken away Jerry Ticer from the important task of getting a decent place cleaned for Jim and Katie to eat and slecp. But the thought of that long ago , time when he had shut tne away from the preparations for his studio, entrust ing the work to Grace Draper, in stead, made me decide suddenly, with feminine inconsistency, to make no objection. ' "I think I can manage them, I said slowly, "but I'll have to get a sewing machine somewhere. I have itl There's an agency in Sag Har bor. We'll just go on past the farm to the village, rent one down there and cart it out in the back of the car." . "Blessed be a resourcetul wife. Dickv chanted, "and also thrice blessed be flivvers. You can trans port anvthing from men to mowers in them.' ' n ' "I'd rather take the men, I said saucily, banally. but T had a sudden desire for any sort of idle .conversa tion to keep my mind from dwelling on the curious contrast between that first fitting up of Dicky's studio and this one. Then, Grace Draper had made the draperies, and I had been the one to view and criticise the finished production. Now, by the irony of fate, I was fit ting up a room in which Grace Draper was to pose for my hus band's work. square miles of land in the Kurdis tan mountains.
