Pretty Lady reading from a fashion book trying to get a little brain picture of what she’s going to have to wear THIS winter. . . . “It is hard to say just WHAT Milady will wear—
but we know it will be quite simple! There will be no plain skirts—no plaited skirts—no full skirts—and no tight skirts. You see? There will be peplums,)godets, tunics and panniers. And
PLASTRONS Ah; ah! Sleeves are—hesitant. The waist line is a—blur. You will be, Milady, quite safe, if you get yours either under your arms or below your knees. There will be fur
everywhere it can get aboard. Lace as deep as possible at throat and sleeves —probably touching Milady’s dimpled knees before the spring. As far as lace goes—look just as much like a baby's
bassinet as possible. If she will picture in her mind this charming winter mode Milady will see how inexpensive—and how quite, quite SIMPLE it is.” Up against it, as usual!
BROADWAY JONES .4 i of "The Great White Way”
Based on George M. Cohen's Play Now

Mi’s Gerard exclaimed at this and
Broadway hastened to add:
“I mean she said ‘yes* Beatrice said

Wallace looked from one to another,
more mystified than ever, when the tit
tering voice of the woman broke In:
"We're going to spend our honeymoon
in Spain."
"Yes, dear, sunny Spain." rhapsodized
Broadway. "I'm going out this afternoon
to buy a sombrero and a pair of casta
nets" he took a few dance steps and
hummed an air from "Carmen."
"Well, aren't you going to congratulate
me'”'
"Now, see here. Jackson, if you're fool
ing me. I want to know." returned Wal
lace roughly.
Mrs. Gerard shook from head to foot in
senile anger.
"There he goes again. Jackson." she
snapped. "I'm not going to stay here and
be insulted In such a manner 1
Broadway interposed. He assured Mrs.
Gerard that tn a few moments alone with
Wallace he could convince him that there
was no Joke. They didn't want Wallace
to repeat to all their friends in town that
the engagement was a farce. If she would
go out In her ear for a half hour ami
return everything would he smoothed
away.
She consented.
"Bye-bye. dearie, she lisped.
"Au revolt-, sweetheart." returned

"No. him won't, little Beatrice. Him

She kissed him fondly
With "Oh. you dear boy," and with
one glance of scorn and fury for Wallace,
she was gone

In considerable more bewilderment than
anger. Wallace sat in his chair, staring
before him for a moment after the widow
Gerard had left Jackson walked slowly
to his friend's chair, laid one hand quietly
on Its back and then looked at Wallace
intently. »
"Say. are you going crazy!" roared
Wallace.
Broadway ignored the query.
"Now. In the first place." he com
menced deliberately. "I want you to
thoroughly understand that I'm positive
ly serious about the whole affair and
that nothing that you can say will change
my plans '
"Well!”
Mrs. Gerard and I are going to be mar-
Hed and It's going to happen very short- 1
It So whether jou like the Idea or not. If
you care to reUna friendship, vou
must get used to It tits asms M 1 have
to do."
"I'm listening

"The natural thought will be that I'm
marrying her for her money.”
His friend laughed shortly.
"They know better than that. Every
body's aware of the fact that you’ve
got all the money you need.”
It was Broadway's turn to laugh.
"Do you think so?" he asked.
Rankin entered with a telegram which
Jones absently put In his pocket as he
Informed the retiring butler that he didn't
wish to be disturbed for a few moments.
Then, when they were again alone, he
paced back and forth for a moment.
Turning sharply he said:
"Bob, I'm going to let you in on a
little secret my secret. No one else in
the world knows. I wouldn’t tell ypu if it
weren't for the fact that we've been so
close and such good pals for the last
few years, hut remember it's Masonic.”
"Certainly.”
"I'm broke.” said Broadway, all pre
tense at happiness gone from his face.
"You're what?”
1 "Broke —dead broke."
"Say. is this another of your jokes?
’ You're rich in them today."
"It's no Joke to be broke. Bob: but it’s
even worse than that with me, Bob: I'm
tn debt."
“ "What!"
' "I owe about fifty thousand dollars."
"Well, what have you done with all
I of your money?”
“Put it back in circulation, where it
■ came from."
WHERE IT WENT.
"Wall street?" suggested Wallace.
"No, Broadway.”
Investments gone wrong'"
"I never invested any. All 1 ever did
was to spend it."
Wallace's Jan dropped. Truly this was
! a day of surprises to him.
"But you couldn't spend the money you
had," he said, as though his business
i like mind tillered the Idea of the impos
sibility of expending legitimately more
than a fixed sum.
Broadway smiled. His tone was al
most sprightly as he answered:
"t didn't have any trouble in getting
rid of it. Everybody seemed very glad
to get it. and also 1 owe tailor bills. Hower
bills, restaurant bills, jewelry bills, boot
bills. I've got a flock of bills in my desk
that would make Rockefeller complain
about the high cost of living, and 1 can't
pay them because I'm broke."
"Why, you always gave me to under
stand that you were a millionaire'"' ex
claimed Bob.
Jackson grinned sheepishly.
"Well. I lied a little." said be "At that
I dare say 1 could have been worth a
million by now if I'd had anj business

left me that when I was ten years old.
I didn't come into it until I was twenty
one about $75,000 in cash, some real es
tate and a half interest in a chewing gum
factory. The first thing I did was to get
rid of the real estate and sell out my in
terest in tlie gum factory. I wanted
cash Hadn't any use for anything else.
My father's partner, his brother (my
uncle, old Andrew Jones), bought me out
and cheated me, too. A measly hundred
thousand, that’s all I got. Since then I
understand he's made a dozen fortunes

"No.”

"Yep, 'Broadway Jones,' " returned the

The two young men sat in silence
for a time. Wallace was trying to find
some way out for Broadway, and the
latter was immersed in mournful reflec
tions. Yet such is the strange mixture
of pride and regret in the career and
temperament of the average spendthrift
that Broadway could not have been said
to be entirely unhappy. He broke the si
lence with a laugh.
'‘When 1 go into a restaurant, the
waiters come to blows to see who’ll get
me. If I go in to get shaved, you’*
think some one had yelled ’Fire!’ the

a quarter of a million, but I've had a won

“How long have you been broke?" asked
Wallace.
“About six months. My credit carried
me on. You know when I first went
broke I made up my mind that I wouldn’t
run into debt, no matter what happened.
I put on an old suit of clothes that morn
ing and started out looking for a job.

I was willing to be elevator boy, mes
senger boy—anything. I walked about
the streets looking for a ‘boy wanted'
sign. My intentions were the best in the
world. But somehow' or other, I got to
thinking of something else, and when I
came to where do you suppose I was?
Sitting at a table in Delmonlco’s eating
breakfast. Forgot all about the job and
turned right in there out of force of
habit. I made a dozen attempts to do
the right thing. I cut out the automo
biles and rode in street cars for two
or three days.

The Kind You Have Always Bought
Daysey Mayme
and Her Folks
By FRANCES L. GARSIDE
Daysey mayme appleton
looks so artificial from the
crown of her golden head to the
tips of her high-heeled shoes she gives
the impression that if some one punch
ed her in the belt she would squeak
' Ma-ma. just like a French doll.
She wears a coliar so high in the
back and so low in the front it looks as
if her halo had slipped down, and she
waves her hands when she talks just
like a switchman.
At first glance one might think Day
sey Mayme superficial. But she is not
—she is temperamental!
As a child she didn’t keep up with
the class in the public school, and h.
mother sent her to a private sehoo
"The teacher.” explained her mother
"didn’t undei stand her. She is SO tem
peramental.”
The word explains so many things!
Al! mothers of backward children use it
When an attempt was made to teach
her to cook, she served over-done steal
with a fresh rose lying on the plat.'
and thought her father lacked the fire
of imagery because he looked at the
steak instead of the flower.
She plays the low tones on the piano
' e, T !o ". and pounds for the loud ones
and her friends encourage her by sav
ing she plays with expression.
“It takes an effort to be temnera
menta she explained to one. who wa «
not. All my life long I have taken
time to read descriptions of sunset* "
On one occasion Daysey Mayme was
left to take care of a young babv. am!
when its mother returned she found th.
balw almost drowned and floating oft
in Daysey Mayme's tears.
“I got to thinking," she said, between
sobs, "of the many weary steps that
await, those poor little feet before theii
journey through life is ended—’’ but he"
sobs choked her, and she could Jay no
more.
She will gaze at a flower and sigh
and look out into the dark with a yearn
ing look in her eyes. All her life slm
has Indulged in this poetic sorrow when
other glris of less sensitive organiza
tions have studied and scrubbed
. "I feel,” she said, "just like a mourn
ing dove sounds.”
And that is what it means to be tem
peramental.
