LETTERS TO GIRLS
ELLA WHEELER WILCOX in this’letter—the second of the
series—advises a schoolgirl about her studies and her attitude to
her teachers.

T O a Schoolgirl:
You tell me you hate Latin and

spend so much time on a dead lan

English has many more desirable
i liances for gaining a good salary
than one who knows only English.
Therefore, I would advise you to
apply yourself to your Latin earnest-
\y\ and then it will be less of a labor
to acquire the French, Spanish, Ital
ian and German—one or all of them.
Rut unless you mean to study some
'nguage I see no benefit in your giv-
:ig time to Latin.
Be thocough in English and study
ts niceties.
Do not be stilted or pedantic, but
no matter what sort of slang and
oarseness your associates may in
dulge in and think it “smart.” in the
American way of applying that word,
avoid all loose and sloppy language,
as you would avoid soiled clothing.
The rarity of good English (or good
American) among our high school
and college graduates is shocking and
humiliating to one who takes pride
in being an American.
The rarity of well placed voices is
equally shocking and ear-bruising.
An important part of your educa
tion should be in learning how to
use your vocal organs in speaking.
of being common
in your looks or
actions. Then
avoid the com
monest qualities
possible in a hu
man being—jeal
ousies and gos
sip.
Teach yourself ;
to praise freely
and criticise rare- i
ly; and when you 1
have a criticism
to make, make it
only to one whom
you feel can be
helped by your
words to over
come a fault
—never behind
the back of the
offender.
Learn to sympa
thize witli your
schoolmates i n
their trials, but
also learn what is
harder still: to
rejoice with them
when they sur
pass you in any achievements, or win
any prizes for which you may be
seeking.
Root out envy and jealousy from
your nature, and know in so doing
you will make yourself more lovable
and more admired than by attaining
the highest school honors.
Character building is a greater
work than brain building.
Be ready to share your best friends
with others, and do not be one of
those exacting and unreasonable
girls who wants no one to love or
be loved by her friends but herself.
In every community and school
such types are common, and it always
savors of pettiness and lack of broad
GOOD many husbands labor un
der the Idea that if they give
their wives a good home and
are generous in money matters they
are doing all that should be expected
of them.
"Woman’s place,” a man argues, “is
at homo. She should be quite happy
attending to her house and children;
they should fill her life. As for me—1
am a man of affairs—it is necessary
that I see life from all sides 1 .”
He expects his wife to be perfectly
content in the narrow.confines of the
home circle. If she grows dull and
unattractive he finds recreation in the
society of some other woman.
Too much of any one thing is^bad
for everybody, and too much home and
babies is bad for even the most do
mestic of women.
It is very easy for a woman to get
it into her head that the house and
children can not possibly get on with
out her even for a day.
The Difference.
Her husband, who should be the one
to gut her out of her rut. is too much
absorbed by business, politics or out
side pleasures to notice, what a dull
routine her life is.
He is vaguely aware that she is not
ay attractive a» she used to -be, but*as
long as his meals are good and he is
comfortable he does not much care.
He loves her, of course, but in a
very prosaic, take-it-for-granted sort
of w^v. He would miss his comforts
more than her companionship if she
went out of his life.
Sometimes he wishes discontentedly
that she would be as gay and viva
cious as young Mrs. So and So, whom
he met the other day. He does not
realize that she is swamped with
household cares and a growing family.
It is absolutely necessary that the
mother of a family should have relax
ation. The father has 1 his business,
with its varied interests and excite
ments. He probably belongs to a club
of some kind; he has plenty to keep
his mind alert and interested.
But the mother sometimes for days
does not get away from the house and
children. Her husband comes home,
reads his paper* and goes to bed. H*r

sed, now you hurry up & git yure
breakfast finished and go to skule. If
you ast me another question about base
ball I am going to use the pam of my
hand for a bat, Pa sed, and preetend
that you are a baseball yureself.
So I finished my breakfast & on the
way to the skule hous I bought a pa
per. 1 thot that if I got to skule
erly, I cud git the prin-ciple to read me
something about how the players was
gitting along at the beginning of the
seeson.
The prin-ciple was thare wen I got
thare & i gaiv him the paper and ast
him if he would plees reed me some
news on the spoarting page. What do
you want me to reed the spoarting
page for, the prin-ciple ast me. I want
to know if Brady’s wing is alright, I
toald him. Brady’s what? said the prin
ciple. His wing, I sed, his whip, T mean
his arm. I am sure 1 am not inter
ested in the person you speek of, sed the
prin-ciple, and beesides I think it would
look a'lot better for a liddel boy like
you to come to skule with his skule
books under his arm than to walk in
heer and show me a vul-gar spoarting
page.
Thare was newer a grait man, the
prin-ciple sed, that started erly in life
reading spoarting pages. Do you sup
poas, he sed to me, that George Wash
ington would walk 12 miles to buy a
newspaper with a spoarting paig in it?
No, he sed, wen he walked 12 miles for
sumthing to read, it was always a law
book or the work of some grate mas
ter that he brought home with him.
I am sur-prised and dis-sapoint-ed in

he was consulting, “is this: If a man is

the former is a ‘slope up,’ and the lat

An Englishman who had been for a

“Surely,” objected Beatrice, “yqu db
not mean to intimate that .1 tried to
attract you, or that I tried to make
you pay attention to me!”
“On the contrary,” declared Robert
Maynard, “the fact that at times you
seemed to avoid me, piqued and irritated
me. You know men always want that
which is beyond their reach. So I
made a fool of myself.”
“By admiring me, you mean?” queried
his companion-. “You are hardly com
plimentary.”
She smiled as she spoke, but there
I was a hint of acerbity in her tone, and
the mart was conscious of it.
“Ah,” he begged, “dear Mrs. Minor,
don’t misunderstand me! And please
hear me out! I want to make a clean
breast of the matter.
“I thought myself in love with you.
I was lonely, and when you discouraged
my attentions I was angry. Then I met
Miss Damerei frequently. You know
how lovely she is. I asked her to mar
ry me. She accepted'me.
“Then she went' away to the country
and I was left without* the charm of
her presence, and suddenly I found my
self caring a great deal about you. 1
saw that you were tired of me, that you
doubted me, that you disapproved of me.
And one day when I was unhappy I
took more liquor than I should have
taken—and I called on you and said
many things for which I now apologize.
Will you pardon me?”
Beatrice thought quickly, hut there
was no perceptible pause before she re
plied: "Certainly, 1 pardon you. And
I am more than willing to forget it.
Moreover, I consider that the matter
now is none of my business."
“Because I am engaged to be married,
you mean?” he asked. •Well, let me
explain that I found, when I went to
the mountains where Miss Damerel was
staying, that, after all, she Avas the one
woman in the world for mo. Then I was
heartily ashamed of my behavior while
away from her.”
Beatrice’s sense of humor asserted
itself, hut she repressed it. The words
“How happy could I be with either

said themselves over in her mind, but
she did not allow them lo rise to her
lips. Instead, she gave heed to what
her companion was saying.
“\Ye are to be married In ten days,
you know,” he went on, “and, of course,
my dear little girl wanted to send you
cards for the wedding, but I asked her
to wait, for 1 wanted to make my peace
with your first."
“You did not tell her that, did you?”
asked Beatrice abruptly.
“Oh, no. Indeed!” Maynard replied, “I
told her it would be best to wait until
I could learn from Mrs. Robbins where
you were. So I wrote and asked her.”
“We came into town last week,” said
Beatrice, to fill in the sudden pause that
followed his speech. Please accept my
hearty congratulations on your happi
ness.”
She had stopped thinking of this man
and his affairs, and was wishing she
dared ask him about’his brother. But
she was afraid to trust her voice. As
if in reply to her thought Robert May
nard spoke suddenly.
“Paul’s Wife Is Dead.”
“I was shocked to hear of your mis
fortune by fire, and of the accident to
poor Paul,” he said, heedless of the ex
pression of pain that swept across his
listener’s face. He was one of the men
who like to impart news, and he had
come to tell. “It was strange that this
-accident should have happened to my
brother just w’hen it did. For on that
very morning he had received the news
that his wife w f as dead.”
“Dead!” ejaculated Beatrice. “His
wife?”
“Yes—I thought you probably had not
heard of it. She led him a dance all
right, neglecting his only child when it
was a tiny baby, so that it died at less
than a year of age. That woman made
an inferno of his home when she was in
it, and stayed away from it as much as
she could.
“At last she ran away, without the
shadow of an excuse. Poor old Paul
waited until he was certain that there
was-no chance of ever having her before
he got a dviorce from her. And in less
than a fortnight after he got his divorcee
—in fact, just when he had completed
the entire business—she dropped dead
of heart disease opt West somewhere.
So—a merciful Providence freed him .at
last. Poor old chap! I hope he will
have some happiness yet in his life be
fore he dies!”
Beatrice tried to speak, but her tongue
failed to do her bidding. Her hands
and feet were like ice. The room
seemed to swim before her eyes. The
sound of the children’s footsteps in the
hall roused her from her stunned con
dition. but. before she could speak, Rob
ert Maynard arose hastily.
“I must go!*’ he exclaimed. “I left a
taxi waiting down below for me. Good
day, Mrs. Minor! And thank you! And
please come tQ the wedding!”
He shook her hand quickly, and, be
fore she could find words in which to
ask the question that trembled on her
lips, he was gone.

P INK Morning comes with petals in her hair,
As fragrant as the kisses of a bride:
Bright noon comes marching with its dazzling glare
To scatter spears athwart the countryside
The purple twilight follows dreamily,
Soothing the senses like a mother’s breath
Each of these changes through the yean we see,
And then comes Night—and Death.
How many, many changes have 1 seen-
Dawn, Noon, the purple Twilight and the Night.
How often have I watched them with a queen.
Dear queen of love who made my years so bright.
Still shift the scene and still the seasons whirl,
And eagerly I watch .them, for 1 see
In every tint the tresses of the girl
Who .smiles and beckons me.

HEN all of a family start\out
together, it Is onp of three oc*
casions that calls them: A
family reunion, a visit to the photog
rapher for the purpose of perpetrat
ing a family group, or a funeral.’
It was the second of these occasions
that was causing Lysander John Apr
pleton to walk up and down Impa
tiently waiting for his wife and
daughter to get ready. At last, th«y
appeared, and the sight of his danglife
ter caused his wrath, w’hich had' l&ng
been smoldering, to burst into ffatne.
She wore low' shoes and silk stock
ings, though the day w’as cold. Her
skirt was so tight she walked gin
gerly, and her hair was so combed
that only enough of her face showed
to prove she was not afraid to fool
with her complexion.
Her large hat was adorned with a
long feather, and the skin of an. ani
mal which she wore as a fur w r as so
draped as to show her bare chest.
“Now, what makes you rig yourself
“lit like that?” he thundered. “If you
want to look decent, w’hy don’t you
dress as your mother dressed when
she was a girl?”
He scolded louder and longer, elab
orating and emphasizing, and de
nouncing th»> horrors of modern dress,
so absorbed in his eloquence he did
not notice that his daughter had left
the room.
He was still clawing the air and
storming, after the manner of tha
male worm when it thinks it is turn
ing at Inst, when his daughter re
turned.
< >n her head she wore a poke bon
net of such depth that her face looked
a if at the next turn of the sub
way. Her hair was plastered
straight, with a circle of bow-cateber
curls that suggested a snake .charmer.
Her sleeves were large and volu
minous, and her very full skirts
swayed just enough over immense
hoops to show that her feet w’ere clad
in heavy, cumbersome arctics.
But it was her waist that was-most
appalling; so squeezed, so small, that
had she swallowed an apple it would
have showed up like a big button at
her belt.
"I am ready,” she said, giving a
curtsey that displayed lace-trimmed
pantalettes that reached her ankles.
"Do you think,” roared her father,
“tlant T would be seen on the street
with you looking like THAT?”
"1 am dressed,” said his daughter,
making another curtsey, “as mother
dressed when she was a girl.” y -
Lysander John threw himseK' out
of the room. Reaching hjs den, he
shut the door with a crash. . 0 ,
There was no family group perpe
