THE OEOO>CMAWS MAGrAJZIME PAOrE, The Everydayness of Life By BEATRICE FAIRFAX. -frue love is but a humble, low-born thing hath its food served up in earth enware; | S a thing to walk with hand in hand. Through the everydayness of this work aday world.” —James Russell Lowell. PrHAP? just that one word ex plains why much that passes for love fails to survive; it lacks the qualities that are needed to meet “the eV e-ydayness" of life. A maid and a man meet, and the law p f attraction which is not governed by any rule or reason does the rest. They select under the rays of moon light that which they demand must sur vivo t h ? hot 'beating of the sun. and even =tnrm of every season. Because they love in smooth sailing, they imagine they will continue to love when there is every strain, every test, put upon that love to weaken or break it. The man gets a very small salary. "It fs large enough for two.” they ar gue. having for the time being lost all appetite for such material things as bread and meat. Older heads, that should be wiser, make no protest, and there is a mar riage on an income that, never sufficed for one. Or if older heads do protest, no one heeds. ‘You lack sentiment; you are cold blooded you would kill all the romance and love in life if you could,” the older beads hear when they point to th® high cost of living. Romance is gratified; it always is. gn( j there is a marriage with the wolf mingling among the wedding guests, older married folks know what it means to have him at the door. When a man and woman marry without any means of livelihood in sight, the wolf boldly waits at the altar. Once in the house. It take o the united effort of man and wife to dislodge him and sometimes the struggle that begins with the wedding day never ends, and he is one of the family till the end. They intend to fight him with econ omy. but not many of the young folks of today know what economy is. And by that I mean old-fashioned thrift. The pennies that should go for ne cessities go for adornment first. So often a ribbon is paid for with money that would have bought a soup bone. They are thoughtless because hither to •rrme one has done their thinking for SUPERFLUOUS HAIR “CURES’ THE NEW YORK WORLD COMMENTING ON THESE SO-WLED “CURES" Says—-They "have numbered their victims by the hundreds of thousands.” Th* New Yozflt World, eonoeded by l«w*sSij®ts w&gy where ae one of the ■nee* Independent, feeurteee newspapers •.woted to the public wwtftere. published to article of interest to women about iepllatories While it oommends very ■'.ighly a wej.l known depilatory, it also points out the imposition practiced by inserupulens manufacturers of so »!l*d superfluous hair "cures.” It is ‘"printed in part.

They are impracticable because life has not dealt them any practical problems.

Love is so fragile a thing it will not always survive disappointments, hard ships, complainings, disillusions. It is so fragile I beg those girls who wish to keep it (and that means keeping Hap piness also), that they look on the practical side of life just a little bit more when they ate courted. It will not cheapen romance tn fig ure on one side the cost of provisions and rent, ami put opposite this sum the young man's earnings. it will not rob romance of a single illusion to make a wide margin for such probable "menses as sickness ano the coming of children.

It is the greatest joy life hold® Rut it be comes the greatest sorrow, a dragged out tragedy, if their love can not sur vive life’s ''everydayness." SAVED FROM SLAUGHTER. Young Jorkins is always bragging about his great muscular strength and h.is prowess with his fists. Recently a story went round that he anti Smithton had nearly come to blows after a baseball .match. and Timeon went to the hero to learn the truth of the matter. “Yes,” replied Jorkins. getting red in the face. “Smithton called me a cheat, and I wanted to li"? him then and there Aye. and I would have done it, too. if I hadn’t been grabbed from be hind and held back!" "Really?” asked Timson eagerly. "And who held you back?" “Oh—er-- Smithton!" replied Jorkins curtly. bought with money.

The sale of DeMiracle is constantly increasing, and we hear nothing but praise for it al! the time.' Dike expressions were echoed by the others.” For years we have hr*n cautioning women against being defrauded by so called superfluous hair "cures In spite of all warning. It seems that some are always willing to be humbugged, because, as The World says. "The fakes put on the market ip the last ten years have numbered their victims by the hundreds of thousands." The mere fact that fake-dangerous preparations are short-lived should alone be sufficient warning to avoid the use of any de pilatory but that of proven merit. Don’t be deceived or deluded by al luring and impossible claims of im postors Tell any one of them that De- Miracle Chemical Company will forfeit Five Thousand Dollars if it can be proven that their so-called superfluous hair "cure*” ever eradicated one single growth of superfluous hair. It la astonishing that some women will take the risk of disfigurement by using unknown and uncertain means for removing these blemishes when there Is such a safe method as DeMiracle, whioh is acknowledged by eminent and reputable authorities everywhere as the standard depilatory-the one absolutely non-poisonous preparation that dis solves hair, thereby taking the vitality out of it. consequently retarding and preventing an increased growth. If further proof Is needed as to ths reliability of DeMiracle. no stronger ar gument can be advanced than the fact that It Is the only depilatory that has stood the teat of time There was more of it sold ten years ago and there has been more of It sold each year since than the combined sal**a of the nostrums.

Guilty! Already in imagination he heard the newsboys shouting the verdict in the streets newsboys In busy cen ters at Charing Cross -at the Mansion House, so near by in quiet suburbs In distant Weybourne. The raucous voices of hoys shouting in the street: "Guilty!" Had any other man. he wondered, ever stood there before him. innocent as be was innocent, wrapped about by an inex tricable net of circumstantial evidence, prepared to fight to the last for bis life because of the ingrained instinct which makes men fight, yet caring so little to win the life that would cost so dear? It seemed to Rimington that already he had endured all that a man could en dure- that the future could hold nothing so merciful as death for him. These weeks since his arrest at Paddington sta tion had been like tears of anguish. His first acquaintance with prison life, the unspeakable degradation of the Black Ma rla, where be had been berried with the offscouring of the criminal world* the crushing news of the explosion at West port. where the laboratory hari been blown up and Charpentier and bls assistants killed.

He gave a little upward lift of th* head, unconscious that the movement was ob served and carefully noted by a half dozen pairs of observant eyes: and. look ing across the court, be saw the woman of his thoughts entering it. In company with his solicitor. His heart gave a grist bound, then seemed to stand still Since the miserable day of the magisterial in quiry. when he had realized for the first time how irretrievably he was trapped, he had not seen Betty, save, in those dreams that tortured him nightly In th* brief snatches of sleep that were more full of pain than refreshment. Now het eyes met his across the court far off and distant as she seemed to hint, h* was sure of that- with a message of love and hope She was dressed in white, charmingly dressed as though for a fete day; and Rimlngton's lover's heart read a message in that also.

The Proof of the Pudding FEW people, so it is said, have it in them to be a Lincoln or an Edi s >n. But how do we know this? Who knows what any hoy or girl may be until the boy or girl has tried in every way possible to find out just what there is tn he or she? When they tell you to be content with the simple life, not to want money, not to care for the things that people prize, do not be too quick to act on this advice. You do not go to bed at 5 in the aft ernoon for two reasons: First. You are not tired at 5 in the afternoon. Second. You like to be up and see what is going on in the evening. The same wish holds good in life. Do not shut yourself up in a narrow and restricted way of living too soon. Make up your mind that you have a share in the good things of life. (See rules later on). This is like going to bed early in the afternoon. You miss a lot and y ou miss doing a lot. Now. any one of us can have our share of life's good things provided (and here a.re the rules): I. We think about the work we are going to do. 2. We think about the work we are doing 3. We think about the work, of a harder kind, we want lo do. How the Rules Work Out. This sort of a program acts in an in teresting way- about like this: t.. It keeps you thinking. 2. And that keeps you a take. 3 And. ijteing awake, you know " hat is going on. 4, And when you know what is go ing on. yotf are in a fairway to find your chance. 5. And when you have found your chance all the rest is easy. 6. Then you w ill have opportunity and money: and if you want the sim ple life, you can have that. too. But remember the simple life belongs to the independent man. Mr. Edison has money, and he cer tainly makes opportunii • Yet he sleeps only about four hours, and eats prac tically less than any other hard work ing man in the United States If he wanted to. he could have duck plum pudding and cham'pagne three times a day. Why does he no’ want these things - ’ He can pay for them The ansoer is simple: He would rather get the work out of Mr Edison than put ducks and plum pudding into him fl 1 ’ Anty Dnidge Telh How to Make Easy. Mrs. Fl ordwork- — “I certainly do detest Hon 3ecl eardwg time. Here I've heeri sembhirtff and scrubbing until the skin ie all off rny knuckles, and 1 just can't get the and paint elean.” Jnty Drudgo— “All the eHww greane in the world clean things if you use the wrong soap. Get Fels-Naptha and the grease and dirt on floors and paint work will disappear like magic.” Fels-Naptha is better than an extra pair of hands in housecleaning. • It makes dirt fly from walls, floors, woodwork, linoleum, windows, porcelain fittings and anything else that’s clean able, just as it does from clothes. No scrub-brush or hot water is nec essary, mind you. Just Fels-Naptha, cool or lukewarm water, and a soft cloth. Fels-Naptha dissolves the dirt in a jiffy so it can be rinsed away; it doesn’t have to be scoured off. As Fels-Naptha is also a germicide, it is a good sanitary precaution to do your housecleaning with it. Did you ever try wasn.’ng dishes with Fels-Naptha in lukewarm water? It cuts the grease quick as a wink and makes the glasses shine. Directions for all uses of Fels-Naptha are printed on the red and green wrapper. This is the type of simple life for you to go after. Get work out of your self. with plenty of ideas about it. Don't live for plum pudding; live for what you can do. This la the simplest game In the world And yet— More men play pinochle every day than play thia great game of getting on. More women play bridge than ever try to get acquainted with the power and character of the soul they’ hope, some day. to save. All a Matter of Choice. It Is all a matter of choice until the day you are scared to death, and then th«- plum pudding and the pinochle can do so little for the soul you want to save that you hate them. 11. Well, mister, if the rule is so simple, why isn't every body at work on it? 1 do not know I think that a bit of plum pudding that a man can see looks better to him than the soul which be can not see—-or, rather, will not see. There may be some other reason. But after all. It must be the plum pudding. Successful men have been praising work and its rewards for six thou sand years, and they still have a small audience. They have kept on singing for sixty centuries that you can have all you want if you are willing to keep buay. And still most people want it with out work. So I think it is the plum pudding that wrecks this chance in life. But it may be the duck o» the pinochle.
