POOR GIRLS HAVE HOPE—RICH
\ GIRLS NONE.
Oh, that a dream so sweet, so long en
joyed,
Should be so sadly, cruelly destroyed.
I knew, I knew it could not last.
’Twas bright, 'twas heavenly, but ’(is
past.
It is often a wonder to many why
poor girls often wed their first loves
have. Hope is her
guiding star at this happy time.
With a rich girl, it is entirely dif
ferent. She does not pin her faitli
to finding in the first man who pays
attention to her a life partner saying
to herself, “if I do not accept him, I
can never get another opportunity to
wed.” She counts on having plenty
of suitors. It will be which one she
will take instead of which one she
could get. Hope is not one of the
blessings which make life's joy for
her. She attends the theater with this
one tonight, goes to the dance with
another one next week, sleigh riding
with still another at a week-end party
and has no time to crown any one of
them the hero of her day dreams. She
does not realize, that, with hope’s
lamp not lighted she misses a gleam
of earthly paradise.
The rich girl is never entirely sure
that she will be wedded lor herself
alone. She never fears missing wed
lock ultimately. Some rich girls im
agine—erroneously—if a. poor young
man is polite he will marry her for
her wealth if not for love of herself.
This is not hope but a-delusion on her
part. The poor girl hopes for a long
life of wedded bliss after she marries.
' If she finds that the partner of her
‘ life has traits which she did not know
I of, she bravely does her best to bear
with and make the best of them. She
I has no other home to go to, no other
heart to lean on, none to take her part
, against him and tempt her to become
estranged from him.
If the rich girl finds that her wedded
path is not as rosy as she expected,
she is perfectly independent with him.
She knows that she can gain her free
dom, that she will not suffer thereby
as far as support and a roof over her
head go. The relatives who have an
I eye to her money take every little act
of his as a lover to help them widen
the breach between them and the hope
of reconciliation is crushed in her
heart.
Os the two, the one who has hope
has everything to live for. The wom
• an who is without it finds life dreary
and the thought of the future un
pleasant. It is not wrong for young
girls to have love dreams. It is nature,
therefore naturaj. Poor girls are not
I building their hopes upon finding a
1 rich young man to wed. All they ex-
I pect is a loving and true heart. With
such a man they hope to win happi
ness and good fortune, if the latter is
intended for them.
MARRIED ACTRESSES.
Give a man a girl lie can love
As I, oh, my love, love thee.
And his heart is great with the pulse of
fate
At home, on land, or at sea.
What is the subtle charm about an
actress which fascinates the hearts of
so many people who know them only
as they appear behind the footlights?
If the actress is fair to look upon,
youthful, there are many masculines
j to whom she appeals, irresistibly.
Perchance one of a party of young
men sitting in a box, or in a front
row, catches her eye as she utters
some bit of sentiment. He has a re
sponsive heart. In an instant the
torch of infatuation is lighted in his
bosom. He besieges the box office for
an introduction, if he knows the man
ager. It does not occur to him that
it is artifice when the manager puts
him off with one plausible excuse and
another. He sends the actress notes,
flowers and bonbons. Fate seems to
be against him because of the fact that
they do not reach her. The messen
ger boy always returns with the gifts
or notes bearing the same story—she
,was not there. If his infatuation for
( the actress has taken deep root, and
^e is a young man who has leisure and
Jmoney to follow his inclination, he is
Japt to present himself in every town
jwhere the charmer is playing, quite
^oblivious to the fact that he has had
Ino encouragement.
t The people from behind the foot-
Jlights, from the stage hands to the
Zstar, are having no end of merriment
at his expense. To the actress her-
Jseif, this homage forced upon her is
intensely annoying; especially if she
is a wife and mother. Her coquetry
and alluring smiles are her stock in
trade, her meal ticket. If men will fall
in love with her on account of it, she
is not to blame.
Every night before she goes to her
bed she writes a long letter to her dear
hubby, who is traveling on the road
with another company. After two or
three pages filled up about their chil
dren off at school, she devotes anoth
er half sheet telling him of the foolish
“Johnnie” who follows the company
from town to town, still bombarding
her with letters, which she returns un
opened.
There are true and good wives and
mothers to be found among the pret
ty. girlish, stage beauties. They would
not care a flip of their finger whether
they were known as “Mrs.” or “Miss”
if they could draw’ the same salary in
either case. Indeed, many of the fa
vorite actresses wish that they could
tell the world what a happy home life
they have at least three months in
the year with an adoring husband and
large family of boys and girls about
them. The sensible man who falls in
love with the actress should make it
a point to find out at the outset wheth
er she is free to receive his addresses
or not. She is one person on the
stage —quite another off. Men’s de
votion does not flatter her. She loves
only one true heart, and that one she
is lawfully bound to.
WHAT HAS BECOME OF THE
DUDE?
Tias thy uncertain bosom over strove
With the first tumults of a real love?
Hast thou now dreaded and now bless'd
his sway.
By turns averse and joyful to obey ?
What has become of the dude, that
pink of masculine, so-called, perfec
tion, he with the scented Jocks and
curled mustache, who wore a crim
son rote in the lapel of his coat, pat
ent-leather shoes, and who sported an
ebony, gold-headed cane?
He was a picture that many a rc
mantic girl glanced furtively at as he
stood on the street corners with his
boon companions watching fair maid
ens flit. by. Parents frowned him
down unless they happened to have
sons just. like him. Women who could
air their opinions without fear or car
ing a snap whether they offended or
not declared that the dude had a waist
too much on the hourglass type to
be quite natural. The tattlers whis
pered to the scandalmongers that
they were sure he wore stays and
pulled them in pretty tight at that.
The dude walked with a mincing
gait. His trouser legs were as tight
as the girls skirts are today. He
spoke with a drawling accent, and
flirted shamefully. He was a walking
fashion plate, whose sole occupation
seemed to be to catch the eye of a
pretty girl and bring a blush to hey
cheek becausd of his bold star®.
It has taken a decade of years for
the species to disappear. But where
have they gone? They certainly have
not developed into sensible business
fellows. They haven't brains enough
under their tilted silk sats for that.
The answer to the query is—they have
married foolish girls whose papas
were rich and able to support daugh
ter’s hubby. They have been trans
ferred from the street corner to the
old gent’s office, where they strut
about with important mien, flirting
with the stenographers and roundly
abusing the male clerks for being so
unfortunate as to be under their con
trol. They live in brownstone man
sions owned by their rich Wives, flit
about, in automobiles and are first
nighters at operas and theaters. The
dude will never work. He is of the
poppies in life’s field of sturdy oaks.
If one sister in a family has married
a dude that has been quite enough of
example for her younger sisters. No
wonder the younger girl profits by her
experience. Her choice of a husband
falls upon the ambitious, energetic
man, who looks what he is. a self
made, sensible, energetic youth who
dresses well, but not extravagantly:
who has a stock of good sense in his
head and the right kind of love in his
heart, and is pushing and capable of
supporting, without her father's aid.
the woman who weds him. It is well
for romantic girls that the dude has
vanished and sensible men now have
come to the fore.
Skiing on the Water.
This ski is recommended as both
a life-saving device and a pleasure
craft, combining safety with novelty.
It cannot sink; makes better speed
than a swimmer, and does not tire the
rider as swimming does. It is more
practicable for long distances, and can
go through water where there is a
heavy undertow, as it sets so high in
the water that it is not caught in the
grip of the undercurrent as the legs
of the swimmer are. It doesn't take a
long time to' master, as the surfboard
does; requires no skill in balancing
and sticking on, and has the great ad
vantage of being equipped with -a mo
tive power, whereat the ordinary surf
board must be pushed and paddled out
to sea before it can be ridden in.—
Outing.
Significance of Book Platys.
No book collector should be with
out a book plate, and a book plate
once inserted in a volume should nev
er be removed. When the plate is
that of a good collector it constitutes
an indorsement, and adds a certain in
terest and value to the volume.
I was once going through the col
lection of a friend, and observing the
absenc^of a book plate, I asked him
why it was. He replied, “The selec
tion of a book plate is such a serious
matter.”—A. Edward Newton, in the
Atlantic.
while rich girls do
not. The explana
tion is simple:
When the poor girl
meets a young
man whom she
likes and who has
shown interest in
her she builds her
future hopes abouL
him. She is satis
fied, nay happy, to
be wooed and won
by him. She looks
no farther for a
possible lover. She
is not expecting
to find faults in
him, nor hiding
any that she may

Conflict Alleged to Be Causing
Bad Dreams.
Women Relate Tales of Visions That
Came to Them in Their Slum
bers— Stenographer Had
Harrowing Experience.
There is no better evidence that the
European conflict is depressing and
disturbing this country than the weird
dreams which, everyone is dreaming.
And each dreamer has to narrate his
or her particular dream; then the
listeners go to dreaming in their turn,
i “Why, why, why—” said a plump,
' dovelike little woman, in evident
i amazement at herself, “last night I
' dreamed that I was leading the Ger
| man army down a hill, playing a slide
trombone the while. And the worst
of it is I do not sympathize with the
Germans, and I don't know how I
came to be leading them in my
dreams. I’m ashamed of myself”
“That's nothing,” said another wo
an, wearily, “I’m all tired out from
I the dream I had last night. Every
time news was reported of a-German
1 advance I had to plant a telegrapn
pole, and I'm all worn out this morn
ing.”
A man joined in. “Well, 1 crossed
the Alps last night, and I’m some tired,
too. I thought I was Hannibal march
ing to help the allies, and I was going
to show 'em just how to lick every
thing and everybody. - '
“Ugh!” chimed in another dreamer.
“My dream was worse than any of
those. I was appointed crown under
taker by Kaiser William and I had to |
bury all the dead in a certain time or
have my head chopped off. I guess
it was a nightmare, for I awoke my
self by my own heavy, labored breath
ing.”
। The college girl had this yarn to
tell:
“I dreamed I was arrested as a spy.
I don’t know which country arrested
me, but when I tried to explain that I
was an American all I could say vias
to decline the Latin noun mensa. Im
agine it! I haven’t declined Latin
nouns since my high school days. But

everyone knew I was a spy when I
talked that way. I woke up in a cold

I Girls, young, ladies and misses, it's
, no use to spend your coin on rouge

. beautiful. It will not improve your
■ looks. And if you insist upon wearing
. small, tight shoes with high heels, you

Another menace to beauty is a four

is all according to Dr. Ida C. Nahm,
, who makes a sweeping denunciation
. of these things. If you want to retain
। your youthful beauty for ever and
, ever, follow these dictates, says the
doctoress: Plenty of soap and warm
, water, lots of outdoor exercise, espe
cially walking, and drink two quarts
; of water every day. These will insure
. health, red cheeks and a slim, youth
■ ful figure. Doctor Nahm recommends
the water cure and walks especially
i for ladies with too much embonpoint.
. She says it’s the safest, surest and
. quickest way to reduce.
