Advice to the
Lovelorn
By BEATRICE FAIRFAX.
NO.
| AEAR MISS FAIRFAX:
■*-' I am 15 and have been (jo-
Inp with a man of 27 for the f>a»t
throe months. He says he loves
me dearly, and has piven me
some nice presents. The last
time we were together we had a
quarrel, but he wants to call |
again. Do you think It would be
proper for me to accept his com
pany? Every time wo aro to
gether he insists on an early
i marriage. Would it be all right
for me to marry him when my
parents object? BEI.I-.E.
Tou foolish little girl, don’t you
know that this man Is not a good
man?
If he were he would not cons a girl
of 15 to marry him against her par
ents’ wishes. Tou must promise me
that you will not see him again.

but she says It is foolishness,

neither will she allow me to go

She is always telling me I

Is partly her fault. Do you?
LONESOME. i
She Is right In refusing to let you i

In twitting you with being friend

P ITY the poor rich girl who has
nothing to do but to amuse her
self doing things that bore her
stiff. Her lot is, indeed, a hard one.
and much more deserving of our tears
ihan many of the woes of the poor over
which we art' accustomed to weep.
There has recently been a great furor
■ ver a young heiress, moving in the
most exalted circle of English society,
who ran away from home because she
wanted to make her own living. The
r uble was almost torn up by the roots
in an attempt to find out if the bold
adventurer had come- to America, de
tectives were put upon her track, and
finally she was found and returned to
her gilded cage, from which she will
probably never have the courage to at
tempt another flight.
The young woman’s mother was so
prostrated with horror that she took
to her bed.
Society was shocked ami shrugged its
shoulders, and tapped Its empty fore
head with a significant intimation that
there was something wrong with the
poor girl’s mind, for her mania was to
do something terrible and Incomprehen
sible.
She wanted to go to work. She want
ed to be a doer, not a waster. She
wanted to be of service to her fellow
creatures, not a parasite on society.
She wanted some real interest in life,
not make believe ones. She wanted to
be of some use in the? world, not a mere
cumberer of the ground.
And she was rich! And she didn’t
h iv*’ to work. And she could have ev
er/ mortal thing that money can buy!
And she wasn't satisfied.
Nc Wonder They Worry.
No wonder her family wrung their
hands when they thought of her, and
- ailed her peculiar, and wondered what
on earth they would do with her. for
likely as not she wouldn’t want to mar
ry a sapheaded youth with a few more
millions, or even he willing to purchase
a degenerate old roue with a title for
a husband.
But however her family and friends
may feel over this poor girl’s futile
break for freedom, she has my hearty
sympathy, for I can think of nothing
else that human ingenuity has ever in
vented that would be such a martyr
dom of boredom as to have to live the
life of what we call “a society woman,"
unci that is nothing but just one party
after another.
Unless you happened to be built that
way.
There are, of course, women who find
their highest happiness in buying clothes
and who ask no more blissful occupation
than to be continually taking off one
dress and hat, and putting on another
dress and hat. To them it Is a great
and noble achievement to have been the
first to wear a Robespierre cpllar, or
to have had a skirt slit two inches high
er in the knee than anybody else, and
If they could choose their epitaph they
would have, “She Was a Swell Dresser
and Was Buried in an imported Shroud."
carved on their tombstones.
The Auction Bridge Career.
There are other women who can make
a career out of auction bridge, and who
satisfy every need of their natures by
-shlng from card table to card table.
There are others who keep themselves
from perishing of inanition by pushing
everything to the extreme, by tur
key trotting hader than anybody
else, by flirtations that border on the
ragged edse of scandal, by spending
thousands of dollars for lap dogs, and
y rushing from place to place as fast as
steam or gasoline will carry them.
And there are others whose highest
ambition is to know the people that don't
want to know them, and who consider a
laborious life of striving well spent if it
lands them at last within the sacred
precincts of the four hundred where all
of your family affairs get into print.
To cure for all of these things enough
to make them worth while you must be
born that way. and that Is w’hat makes
the tragedy of the rich girl whose brains
were not cut on the bias and frilled In
ue middle and hobbled with a blue rib
bon tied about them.
Dress doesn’t seem to her the most
Important thing in the world. Nor does
she feel that bridge Is the chief end of
life. To spend her time In dancing like
a monkey on a stick seems to her noth
ing less than a crime, and she abhors
the fat dinners and luncheons that she
eats to the accompaniment of fat talk,
with the same fatheads for perpetual
company.
She wearies of the artificial interests
of those who are forever at their wits’
end to devise some new way of killing
ie time. She wants the real thrill of a
real interest where you pit your own in
telligence and skill against that of oth
ers. and struggle for a real prize. She
wants to do something that Is of some
account, something that will upbuild.
She wants work and to be a worker, not
to he a dressed-up doll.
And the thing she wants most she
can’t have. Nobody will let her try,
even, to find out what Is in her. what
strength she has, what are the measures
of her taJents. There Is nothing left
for her but to go in for philanthropy,
and she hates philanthropy. She wants
m save herself, not others.
And that’s why 1 say, pity the poor
rich girl. Her only salvation is to be
born without any human qualities That
is if she is to be happy.
Criticism Widespread.
There is a great deal of criticism of
women who want to do things, and we
hear much of the discontent among
women. People say of such-and-such
a woman that she Is rich, that she’s got
a tine house, and Jewels, and automo
biles. and money enough to buy every
thing she fancies; and they throw up
their hand** and say, “In Heaven’s
name, why Isn't she contented?"
The answer is. because she’s got no
worthy outlet for her energy’ and Intel
lect. Very likely such a woman Inherit
ed from her father a talent for finance
loat would have made her a Wall Street
magnate, or an executive ability that
would have put her in the Governor’s
chair had she been a man; and to spend

| Some Practical Suggestions by
a Practical Business Woman,
Who Says Happy Marriage Is
Made Up of Little Sacrifices on
Both Sides.
“M
By Margaret Hubbard Ayer
ARTICLE II.
ATRIMONY is a fine art. To
criticise it properly one
must see it at a distance,
then one can find the small flaw's that
sometimes spoil the masterpiece."
Mrs. Isabelle Kellie, a writer and
a business woman, who has been suc
cessful at many things, including
matrimony, gives her ideas on this
subject to the Newly Weds to-day.
"A happy marriage is made up of
little sacrifices on both sides. When
these sacrifices are appreciated by the
other half they turn in to mutual
plf :;sures.
"It takes a great deal of thought
to make a fine art of matrimony. Few
young married people are willing to
study each other’s needs and make
allowances for each other. Married
couples soon get into the habit of
ordering each other about without
saying ‘please’ and ‘thank you.’ A
woman will do many little services
for a man if he voices his wants
politely, and the same applies with
equal truth to the other sox.
“Generally one finds when a mar
riage is not ideal that the couples are
suffering from too much of each
other’s society. In the days when
most people lived in houses sur
rounded b'y gardens the harassed
hero or heroine could flee to the arbor
and indulge in the luxury of soli
tude. But there is no such thing as
solitude in the modern flat. And
every human being feels the need of
being alone and absolutely quiet at
. times.
Does Not Harp on Trouble.
"The girl who has been in business
before her marriage realizes that her
husband is fagged out w'hen he comes
home from his day’s work and, if she
remembers her own experience, she
knows that he can recuperate and get
rested sooner if she will refrain from
pouring out the trials and tribula-
MRS. ISABELLE KELLIE.
tions of the day in his ears or adding
to his nervous state by a weepy sym
pathy. Many people are like animals
when they are ill or very tired. They
want to be left absolutely alone.
"Every person is entitled to a room
or den where they can retire and
commune with their own souls when
they need to do so, without fear of
hurting the feelings of the rest of the
family. The small apartments where
all privacy is impossible have had
their share in adding to modern
‘Nerves.’
"As modern living conditions make
it impos^ble for people to get the
privacy that went with larger houses
and more space, that sense of privacy
must be recognized and respected
and fostered and the odious familiar
ity that inevitably breeds contempt
must be guarded against. One can
do it if one is forewarned and T think
that problem lies in he hands of the
wife.
Love Doesn’t Bar Politeness.
"Love should not be a bar to polite
ness, and the fact that one is mar
ried is no good excuse for forget
ting those small phrases that go with
ii request such as ‘Do you mind?’ or
’Will you be kind enough?’ which
one would never omit to a stranger
and which smooth the rough places
wonderfully.
"There is such a thing as seeing
too much of one another, and I have
known of many couples who seem to
forget that a man needs the compan
ionship of other nun just as a woman
craves that of other women.
"Once the honeymoon is over I
think that a man should be allowed
one night a week for his club or his
friends, providing that the compan
ions are of the right kind, of course.
It is a good thing for him to see oth
er men than those he meets in busi
ness.
“On the other hand, I think later
r.n when there are children and a
! woman has no nurse for them the fa-
j ther could arrange to take charge of
I them one evening a week and give
the mother an absolute rest, ‘an even
ing off,’ to go to the theater or see
her friends and family. Of course, a
man says that she has the entire day
to herself, but a woman with small
children has not a minute day or night
to call her own, unless some one else
takes the charge of the children.
"There would be fewer bored mar
ried couples if men and women culti
vated a hobby. The hobby may be
anything from suffrage to golf or
yachting to suit the income and taste
of the individual, and husband and
wife should not necessarily have the
same hobby.
"A diversity of interests of this kind
stimulates the mind and helps con
versation when the inevitable time
comes where husband and wife fin*!

Married Life the Third Year
“O
H, where ARE the goos scis
sors? l ean t out with these!"
Helen threw down her sew-
I ing and again searched through her
! work basket.
"What In the Sam Hill do you want?”
growled Warren, as she moved the read
ing lamp, and raised up his papers to
look on the table.
"The scissors—we’ve only one pair
that'll cut. Oh. maybe Alice has taken
them In her room,"
Alice wait writing—A voluminous let
ter. from the pages of closely written
note paper. She looked up with a slight
frown as Helen entered.
"Have you the good scissors in here,
I Alice? I’m sorry to disturb you. Oh,
! yes, here they are,” seeing them on
the dresser.
Helen went back and took up her
sewing, cutting ovenly with the sharper
scissors the material the duller pair
had only “chewed.”
"Pear," as she thoughtfully threaded
a needle. "I don’t know' what to think
about all the letters Alice w-rltes. Every
day since she came she’s spent hours
writing to some one."
"Well, what of it?” snapped War
ren. “What business is It of ours how
many letters she writes?”
It’s Only to One Person.
"But it’s only to one person! It
isn’t as if she were writing home or
to a lot of school girls—ehe’s writing
to some man!”
"How do you know It’s a man?”
“Why, no girl is going to write a
twenty-page letter to another girl and
write one every day! And, besides,
there’s a man’s picture in her locket
1 saw her looking at it yesterday. And
somehow I feel it’s somebody her folks
don’t approve of or don’t know anything
about.”
"Fiddlesticks! You’re always imag
ing something. Why shouldn’t a girl
of eighteen write to a man if she wants
to?”
"Tf her mother knows it—yes. but
I feel that Aunt Emma doesn’t know
this." persisted Helen. “And that pic
ture in h«*r locket—It isn't any one
of her own age—It’s a man of thirty-
five or forty. And I don’t like his face,
but it’s Just the type that would attract
a young girl."
”Oh, cut It! Can’t you see I’m try
ing to read?"
Helen sewed on in silence, but in
spite of Warren’s lack of interest and
apprehension, her thoughts kept revolv
ing about the many page letter Alice
was always writing, and the man’s face
she had seen In the locket.
Things Were Not Right.
Intuitively she knew that thinks were
not right, and the fact that Alice was
here under their protection gave her a
haunting sense of responsibility.
The next day the noon delivery
brought Helen a leter from Alice’s
mother. Alice was shampooing her
hair In the bathroom, and Helen called
to her cheerily as she opened it.
"Better hurry up! Here’s a letter
from your mother.”
But as soon as she glanced at the
letter, she realized It was one that Alice
could not see.
“A letter from mamma?” asked Alice,
coming in, shaking her wet hair over
her towel-covered shoulders.
"But it’s only a business letter," fal
tered Helen. "Nothing that would In
terest you."
"I know what mother wrote you," ex
citedly. "I know why you won’t let me
see that letter! She wrote about Mr.
Hampton! She’s afraid I’m writing to
him. or that I’ll see him—isn't that it?
Oh, you needn’t answer. I know it is."
"Yes. that’s what she lifts written
about.'' Helen looked at h&r steadily.
“And don’t you think, Alien, that your
people have had enough trouble without
you causing them thi6 exU* worry?"
“Then why don’t they let me alone?
I’m eighteen—I’m old enough to know
what I’m doing. Why shouldn’t I write
to Mr. Hampton—and see him, too, if I
want to?"
"Alice, I don’t know anything about
this man, but I do know that your
mother wouldn’t object to your seeing
him without some good reason."
“Oh, mother!” with an impatient
shrug, "w’hat does she know about
Mr. Hampton? Just because he’s, a
little older than I! And he's sq much
more interesting and clever than any
of those Dayton boys I know. Why
I’ve always said I couldn’t care for
a man who wasn’t a lot older. And
the fact that he’s divorced—I don’t
see what that’s got to do with it?
l^)ts of people have been married un
happily and it isn’t their fault.”
"Divorced! Oh, Alice, he ISN'T
divorced?”
How Foolish.
“Well Is there anything disgrace
ful about that? Aren’t lots of people
divorced—nice people, too? He’s tdld
me how unhappy he was with his
wife—how they were never con
genial. Her tastes and interests were
so different—they’d nothing in com
mon. Oh. his life* has been so sad?
You can tell that by his eyes—the
most wonderful dark eyes! And he’s
so distinguished looking, and has the
most glorious voice!"
Helen sank into a chair with a help
less gasp of dismay.
"I suppose it’s useless for me to try
to tell you how foolish you are. Can’t
you see no man of any principle would
talk to a young girl about his divorced
wife? Why, everything you say about
him shows”—
“Cousin Helen, I happen to love him
and I’m engaged to marry him, so
you will please not say anything
more!”
“Then I must say this, Alice, that
while you’re here, you are not to
write him another letter. I can’t
have the responsibility. Your moth
er’s to send for you the first of the
month, then she can handle the situ
ation, but while you stay here—you
must not write him again.”
“And how are you going to keep
me from writing him?"
"If you won’t respect my request—
I shall have to ask Warren to see that
you do."
"Warren!” sniffed Alice. "Do you
think I’m afraid of him? Because
he’s always lording it over you doesn't
mean he can bully everybody else. I
don't care if he IS my cousin. 1 think
he’s about, as selfish and overbearing
as any one I ever met. And since
you feel so free to say things against
Mr Hampton, just let me tell you that
if I marry him he’ll be a lot kinder to
me than Warren’s ever been to you!’’
And before Helen could recover
from her amazed indignation Alice
had flounced int'' her own room, slam

D earest kitten:
"I’ve been to the animal
fair, the birds and the beast
were there, the old baboon—" and
that Is about how a New York ball
strikes me to-day. But I took it
far more seriously last night. And,
oh, how I wish I hadn’t! Honey, you
may call some of the 11 tie dances in
Savannah and Macon and August*
"slow," and wish Joe could take you
to a real function up in Atlanta, hut
dances are happy youn; things, and
balls are painful old affairs, and I
know.
Besides all of which, the R 0 y c ,
girls have not the costumeB for bails,

felt in a blue funk when I behJId

pale pink and apple green chiffon all
done with posies and pearls , n d
priceless lace.
He'd Call It Inadequate.
Now, I don’t doubt tiat a fashion
editor would call this i. most Inade
quate description, but how you'd
come closer to describing the b'e«i|.
dering fluff that dwelt under Glory's
skyline plush evening coat, I don’t
see. But 1 just about ; erished when
I beheld the utter spU ndlferousn sa
of all the ladies fair at the ball.
And T. Albert Jo instone was
ashamed of the little Hoositr he had
brought along in his paity. Of course,
he was very polite and took a dance,
but It was a turkey trot, and v.e had
to sit it out. Neither he nor Glory
introduced me to a soil, and if Mr.
English had not been perfectly line
about his little CinderelU partner, she
must have been a hopele ss wallflower.
But he took many dances and signed
all sorts of scriggles, so it really ap
peared that I was quite a belle, and
all his -introductions w * re so clever
and flattering that he fairly per
suaded the men 1 was a personage
instead of a mere little scribbler who
may never amount to anything at
all.
And how I hate the turkey trot and
the bunny hug and all the menagerie
wriggles! Why, the Inventors of
those far-from-dances forgot all
about the fact that dancing is an ex
pression of noetrv and hythm! The
turkey trot is very' bad meter—lots of
•xtra feet and so much swing that it
drowns out all delicacy. And a more
go-as-you-please affair you never
saw—you follow' the leader—who is
your partner pro tern.—and Just
when you’ve learned to wriggle and
twist as his fancy dictates you get
a new dictator.
Kitty, think of being glad and
thankful and joyous when a dance
concludes to end! Bu I was, and
when T. A. and Glory decided to stay
for the supper and cotillon, or what
ever they' have at these Manhattan
functions, I was happy to hear Mr.
English declare that we were both
working folk and would now proceed
to buy us a little taxi and ride home
in it.
I was so tired end felt such a social
failure—badly dressed i nd unable to
mix. I just wanted to drop my head
down on mother's shoulder and cry it
all out. And the only shoulder handy
was Mr. English’s—so j sat up very
straight and bit my' li >s and swal
lowed all the bitter thoughts that
were trying to choke me.
I ’Spose I’m Engaged.
And then Mr. English suddenly
said: "Poor little girl, you have had
a stupid evening. It was like putting
one little anemone into a bunch of
hothouse roses. Will the delicate
little wildflower forgive me for tak*
ing her out of her wotds into that
atmosphere?” And thfn—oh. Kit'y,
don't ask me to explain how it ever
could have happened—b it it did—Mr.
English took me in his arms and
kissed me. Am I engf ged to him?
T suppose I am. and I don’t want to
