Newspaper Page TextTHE GEOBOAWS MAGAZINE PAGE T Hunting a Husband T - NO. 7.—THE WIDOW FINDS THAT SHE IS REALLY FALLING IN LOVE AGAIN. TWO days after the theater party Beatrice received a note from Robert Maynard inquiring if he might call that evening. "I want,” he added, "to ask you to go driving with me on one of these beautiful May afternoons, but I be lieve that conventionality and etiquette demand that I shall have called on you before, 1 make such a suggestion. Moreover. I count it a pleasure always to be in your society, and 1 hope th.it you will allow me to see you tonight." “I was told to wait for an answer," said the messenger who brought the missive. Beatrice was ashamed at the un steadiness of her hand when she sat down to pen her reply. “I might be a silly girl of sixteen!" she exclaimed disgustedly. "A woman of my age must be a fool to be so much excited at the prospect of a call from a mere man." Her answer was brief: "Dear Mr. Maynard. I shall be very glad to see you this evening. Beatrice Minor." __ Within ten minutes after she had sent away the messenger her telephone rang. She recognized Henry Blanch ard's voice on the wire, but it brought her no thrill. “I am calling up." he said, "to inquire if you are going to he at home to night. If so, 1 would like to call." “It never rains but it comes down in buckets!" thought Beatrice. “With hosts of evenings all by myself, both of these men have to ask to come on the same night!” But her voice was gently regretful: “Oh, Mr. Blanchard, I'm so sorry! I have just made an engagement with a friend for tonight! It’s too bad! Can’t you come some other evening instead?" Leaving Town. “I am disappointed," said the man. "for I am leaving town tomorrow on a business trip that will keep me absent for a week, and I hoped to see you be fore going. I suppose it would not do to put your friend off until tomorrow? Do you thing she would be offended if you did?" SHE! thought Beatrice amusedly. Did this old bachelor suppose that he ■was the only man who ever paid her any attention? But she resisted the Impulse to tell him that he had made a mistake in the sex. "I'm afraid,’.’ she said, reluctantly, "that it would not do. One's friends are sometimes sensitive, you know. But MRS.

Meanwhile take care of yourself, and think occa sionally of this one of your friends." "Os course!" replied Beatrice. “I could not help it if I would!" Was she really flirting with this old bachelor? Was it sex instinct, or was it because she did not want to let him slip through her fingers until she was sure that she had secured another man'.’ But she did not answer the question. What was the use of analyzing one’s motives, anyway? She found her little tasks about the house uninteresting that day. They bored her, and she kept looking for ward to the evening and what it might bring. She opened her piano and played over some of the old songs she had for gotten for several years, singing them in her clear, sweet voice, and enjoying the sound of her own tones. Robert Maynard had said that he liked parlor music, and that it was always a joy to him to listen to the love songs with which he had been familiar as a young man. Os late Beatrue had neglected her music. There had been nobody especial to play for and sing to. Tom had enjoyed her little talent, and that had been one of the few subjects on which they had not quarreled, as he had always urged her to take lessons and to practice. After his death the sound of the airs he loved had made her sorry for him in a sentimental way tftat brought tears to her eyes, and she did not like to be sad. Therefore, the piano and her songs had been shunned by her. But today It was different, and she rejoiced in the fact that, though out of practice, she could still sing. She found the piano sadly nut of tune, and hurrying to the telephone, called for a tuner, who promised to come up at once. Ready for the Drama. By the time she had eaten her din ner, and seen the children tucked into bed. it was eight o’clock, and Beatrice felt that the stage-setting was ready for the drama of the evening. The visit had assumed to her mind immense significance, and when she heard May nard's ring she was conscious that she was nervous and short-breathed as she wondered if lie would care more or less for tmr at the end of a couple of hours of uninterrupted tete-a-tete. He look ed, she decided, handsomer than ever this evening She had always thought his correct evening dress becoming, as is the conventional dress suit to the man who has a distinguished bearing, although it seems to commonlze the boor. I have known of cases in which a woman never discovered that a man was handsome until she saw him in his evening clothes. Beatrice was glad that she had worn a pretti and dainty frock, a pale violet, because she remembered that Robert had expressed admiration for that particular color. "It Is a strange coincidence,” he said delightedly, "that you should be wear ing tonight .lust that shade of soft pur ple, for as I passed Thorley's 1 saw a bunch of violets that were simply screaming to be brought to you, and they will blend beautifully with your gown.” "I wore it because I knew you liked this color,” murmured Beatrice, as she removed the wrappings from the su perb bunch of sweet blossoms. "Ah," as she inhaled their fragrance, "how delicious! And they are my favorite flowers." "I know it!" "was the grave' response, and as Beatrice raised her eyes she saw a tenderness in the gaze fixed upon her that made.her flush hotly, and she be gan talking rapidly of indifferent top ics. She did not wish her good times spoiled by an untimely declaration of affection, nor did she care to be obliged to give a decided "yes" or "no" until she knew her own mind and just what she wanted. The evening slipped away quickly. It was full of thrills of gratified vanity for Beatrice, as Maynard was one of the men who know how to say pretty things to women, and his admiration for his hostess was sincere. It was like a lovely dream to the widow. She sang in away that surprised herself, while Robert seemed to enjoy her and her music even more than she had ex pected him in do. Before lie left lie 'old her that he would like to take her for a drive the next day. "I keep a fast horse and trap." he said. “They are my.one personal ex i avaganee.” ,\nd Beatrice, concealing her joyous >xi itement. promised demureli to go with him at 3 o’clock the next after noon. e e What Dame Fashion Is Offering > SUMMER MUFFS—A STARTLING NOVELTY FOR JUNE BRIDESMAIDS ■ ~| HERE IS A GENUINE NOVELTY , THAT HAS TAKEN PARIS BY STORM.

(The following article is published by permission from Mr. Thomas Tap per’s book Just published by the Platt A Peck Co., New York, and copy righted by them, entitled, "Youth and Opportunity.") WRITERS of books have often de clared that it is no unusual thing in out-of-the-way parts of Scotland, under smoky rafters of cottages the thatch of which is kept down by ropes weighted with huge stones, for some young fellow to con ceive a passion for knowledge and battle with the evil star of his poverty to some purpose Mr. D. T. Holmes. In his most de lightful volume. "Literary Tours in the Highlands and Islands of Scotland," touches on some aspects of that sub ject He talks of Bard MacDonald, of Trotternlsh, whose croft costs him from two pounds to four pounds per annum, and whose only cow came near being impounded for the price of seed pota toes. who has hitched hfs wagon to the high star of poetry. "I heard him sing a Gaelic poem of his own composition containing 25 verses of intricate verslfii atlon," says Mr. Holmes. He tells also of the Skye student who rode to the seaport, crossed the sound, rode across the breadth of Scotland to Aberdeen, and there sold his mount to pay the college fees. And here Is an anecdote, if not of learning and poetry, at least of learn ing In adverse surroundings. Two sail ors and a shopkeeper were discussing the subsidence of the land on Scalloway pier. (me of the sailors alleged that his grandmother's cabbage patch was covered by the water on which his boat was floating. The big shopman, turn ing to me, quoted the well known pas sage of Tennyson of the sea flowing where the'tr'ee used to grow "<i Earth, what changes hast thou seen." This quotation led to a literary talk, In which he remarked that of all the poets he preferred Homer. "What translator do you like best?" 1 in quired. "Blaekie," he replied, "as be ing tile most faithful to the original. But I rarely read a translation; I pre fer Homer in his own Greek" This remark, made by one whose fingers were glistening with herring scales, came to me as a pleasant surprise. Later on In the day I visited ills house and saw his fine library and splendid collection of classical books. True Culture. These Instances of the true order of culture.

As we do so the one guiding principle that we must follow is the. one that permits us to read the man in his works If the writer and the painter be true men, we shall find tn the writings and in the pictures, not only the men who wrought them, but we shall And that spirit of truth of whieh they were the apostles. This is. as we have seen already, the essentia! value to us of learning bow to read environment. In speaking of the influence of college life upon a young man, William De- Witt Hyde has said: "To be at home tn all lands and all ages; to count nature a familiar ac quaintance, and art an intimate friend; to gain a standard for the appreciation of other men's works and the criticism of one's own; to carry the keys of tho world's library in one's pocket, and feel its resources behind one In what ever task he undertakes; to make hosts of friends among the men of one's own age who are to be leaders in all walks of life; to lose one's self in generous enthusiasm and co-operate with others for common ends, to learn manners from students who are gentlemen, and form character under professors who are Christians—these are the returns of a college for the best four years of one's life." This statement, which may not In appropriately be called the declaration of independence of the cultured man. is. happily, no less applicable to the humble worker than it is to the schol ar. or to the man of leisure In ana call ing. The boy In the office Is no less welcome than they are to know all lands and all ages; he has but to reach foith his hands and the best thoughts about them ale his Io read and to ponder. By the same means and by the same exercise of his thoughts, he may make ait ills intimate friend If he does his own work by putting the utmost of his thoughts into it, lie will thereby know how to value the. work of other men. When he has learned tn read the best books of th- world he has it In his power gradually to change bls own world. To seek by study, ob servation and practice the meaning of friendship will win him friends wher ever he may find himself. To co-oper ate with others to whatever extent he may be able will show him how great even little philanthropies are. If he be not actually attendant upon the. per sonal influence of learned men tn col lege. he may observe them even more clearly in the university of life, of \vhlch he is, by the very fact of his birth, a matriculated student.
