And this evening he would be here determined to see nor As soon us Alice was out of the loom Helen phoned to Warren. ’‘It’s about Alice! (’an you hear me? I can’t talk louder—she’s in the next room. That man is in Philadel phia now and he’s coming here t< take her out to dinner at half-past 0. I‘can’t do anything with, her: she’s determined to go. How soon * yn you get here?” Warren Takes a Hand. Warren promised to be there be fore 6. and he kept his word. "What’s all this about that man coming here?” he demanded, as Helen met him in the hall. “Hush-sh, dear; her door is open. Come in here.” Warren listened grimly while Helen told him of the special delivery let ter. the telephone call, and of Alice's determination to see the man when he ca me. "Well; you just leave it to me." It was plain that Alice was expect ing to go out. for she had put on liei prettiest gown. Helen hooked it up for her without comment. At ti:3o, .just us Maggie was put ting the dinner on the table, the phone rang. Warren strode over to answer it. Helen heard his curt— “Tell the gentleman to come pp.” Alice fluttered out. flushed and ex cited. "Oh, isn't it some one for me. Cousin Warren ?" "1 believe it is.” answered Warren grimly. ‘Shall 1 receive him in the library, eagerly, "or the front room?” “I’LL recelVe him." There was an ominous note in Warren’s voice. "Why—why—, Cousin Warren surely you're not going to make things unpleasant! You wouldn’t say any thing that would—” A peremptory ring of the door bell | cut short Alice’s appeal, and Maggie ushered in a swaggering, self-assured j man of about forty. Immaculately but flashily groomed. The large diamond j stud, the heavy walking stick and gray suede gloves were typical of the 'man. There was sointhing in Warren’s i manner that had made both Alice and [ Helen retreat to the next room, j When Mr. Hampton entered he saw only Warren. “I—I called to see Miss Willard," he announced assertively. "Yes, I know you did," rr# died Warren. "I’m Miss Willard's cousin, with whom she’s staying. I’m sorry to say you can’t see Miss Willard while she’s here.” ‘ An Outrage.” “Can’t see her! what do you mean, sir?” blustered Mr. Hampton. "I think my meaning is quite clear Miss Willard’s mother lias written that #she has forbidden y ou to call on her daughter.” “Why. this is an outrage, sir! I’m engaged to Miss Willard. She’s of age—you’ve absolutely no right to keep me from’ seeing her. I’ve come from Cincinnati for no other pur pose.” "That’s unfortunate. I must ask you to excuse nie now. as it is our dinner hour. This is the way out." Blustering, protesting, but plainly disconcerted by Warren's cool, high handed domination, he .stalked out, declaring wrathfully he would find some way yet to see Miss Willard us often as he pleased. As soon as the door cloed after him. Alice rushed in to Warren, hysterically denouncing his treat ment of the mart she loved. "Now we’re not going to have any of that." roared Warren. "If you want to have hysterics—you have them in your own room. You’re go ing back home next Tuesday, but. while you’re in my house, young lady, I’ll see that you do just about as I say." Alice flung herself Into her room. \vher t . they ceuld still hear her angry I sobs. In grim, glowering silence Warren j sat down to dinner. Not a word was I sooken as Maggie served the soup. ! Ti len. as Helen rose from her chair, lie demanded, scowlingly: "Where’re you going?” “Oh. 1 can’t let Alice cry like that —she'll make herself sick.

I am madly in love with a young man one year my senior. But 1 do not be lieve that he loves me, as 1 see him flirt with other girls. Now, as 1 love this young man dearly, and as he says he loves me, I do not know whether to give him up or not. 1 know that I could not live without Archie. Yours des perately, MABEL.’ Of ’course, you could not live with out Archie. You are just of the age when if some wicked, designing girl came between you and Archie it would break your heart, and you would pine | away to the tomb. Without doubt you j have spent many a sad moment gaz»- J ing pensively out into the dark, tak- I ing melancholy joy in the thought of how Archie will vnourn for you when | it is too late. Your imagination of the distress of i your family, the remorse of Archie, and j the contempt the world w ould bear for i the wicked, designing girl who stole j him away has brought many tears to your eyes, and even taken away your I appetite for chocolates and pickles. You are suffering "much extremity for love." and though your elders may scoff at you, they know that your dis tress is as real as the sorrow that comes in later years. Greater—because ex perience makes one philosophical. At j seventeen you are sure you could not j iive without Archie. At thirty-four you will decide, when you have trouble with your lover, that you can live without I him very comfortably. He Is Perfect. The Archie of your love dreams wears a halo and is the handsomest, the most adorable, the wittiest, the brightest and !the most desirable of his sex. Ail tk-se I perfections he gains because you look j at him through eyes that are only sev- I enteen. I When you reach thirty-four you will J see no halo on the head of your lover. I You will behold only a weal;, vain, aver age specimen of his sex, and if you love him it will not be because you are blind to his faults, but in spite of them. The years develop the maternal In stinct In every woman, he she good or bad. If this were not* so, no woman past thirty would fharry. She has no illusions: she worships not a perfect man, but one, who appeals to her through his weaknesses and imperfec tions. 1 might tell you, Mabel, that Archie is only eighteen, and is so immature that his mother can’t tell If he will hatchout a goose or a swan. I might add that Archie is green and gawky, can’t support himself, and that no man who is not able to support him self is qualified to make love. I might suggest that he is conceited and arrogant, and makes love to more than one girl at a time to ratify a pet weakness for adulation. I might hint at fickleness for adulation and shallow ness; F might insist that you come out of your trance, and behold him as he is. But that would be equal to turning tlie pages for a child who is learning the A. B. C’s, and commanding it to learn the lesson in the middle of the book. You Must Learn. You must learn each lesson in turn. You must go through every stag*; of the growing pains of love before you can know it in its completeness. Of course, you cannot live without Archie. You will insist on that to day, a little less forcibly to-inorrow, and the next day you will find your self still alive, very comfortably so. and with no thought of Archie in your mind. Perhaps by the time you read this you will have progressed so far ahead of Archie that memory of him excites only a laugh. A laugh, when at one time the thought of him carried with it the conviction that you could never imile again! . i hope this is so, but if you are still mourning, if you continue to be* “des perate." I car *tff'*r you no comfort that time will not bring All 1 sug gest is that you give him up. it Is always more romantic to renounce than to he renounced, and seventeen finds great solace in romantic woe. Advice to the Lovelorn By BEATRICE FAIRFAX DRIFTING THAT WAV. 1 \ EAR .V IS*! FAIRFAX I met a young man year and a half ago. Since then I have met many more, but I care for none but him. He Is ten and a half years my senior. He has written to me and his letters are nice and polite. I see him sometimes sit times a day. but mostly twice. Whenever be is away l like him just, tiie same. He always speaks to me and seems glad to see me. lie said he like*I me and speaks well of me wherever he goes. Every one likes him. Do you think he cares for ine and that I love him? INQUISITIVE. He likes you: you like him. If jour friendship is drifting Into love, don’t hasten it. And don’t puzzle your head over your feeling for each,other. That will develop in due time MAKE HIM PROVE IT. FA LA H MIBS FA 1 It FA X : I am engaged to a young lady nineteen years old and would do anything she would ask of me. But since Christmas her parents have objected to my keeping company with her, all on account of a boy who told a falsehood to hurt us. I love the girl anti my love is returned by her. What must 1 do? Steal her. or gn ask for her and get re fused? p. \y. t. You must not rest under a false ac cusation, no matter what the result. Prove th* young man is false. That must come tlrst with you. Then the rest will be easy. KNOW n woman who is one of the darlings of the gods upon a whom no harsh wind of fate has J ever blown. In addition, she Is a woman who is, herself, sweet and love ly in every relationship of life. She is beautiful, intelligent and high minded, a beloved tlgure In her own home and in society. She is married to one of nature’s noblemen, who has been the tendcrest and the kindest of hushahds, and she has repaid his devo tion with an equal affection and has I been to him an ideal wife. She has j borne and raised a family of splendid hildren. She is a fine housekeeper, and has made her home not only a haven of rest for her own, but a tem ple of refuge for strangers. You could not conceive of a fuller or a more useful life than this woin- ! an has led. and yet she Is consumed j with a burning ambition to achieve | something outside of her home, to do something that will gain public rec ognition and that will bring her In some money that she has absolutely turned herself and that does not come to her from her husband. She Shakes Her Head. She despises -as trivial the things she has done She feels that the money her husband furnishes her and he is as liberal as the day—is i gif'. Hite bus no sense of having earned it. When you say to her that to have made a beautiful home, to have been a good w’ife anti made a man happy, and to have reared fine children is the greatest work thut any woman could possibly (hi. and an achievement far surpassing the writing of a popular novel, or a play that runs a hundred ' nights on Broadway, or a picture that ■rets hung in an art gallery, she shakes her head. "I want to do something that will •nuke mv husband and children proud ! of me," she says. "I want to do some thing that will justify my friends’ af fection for me.” And you talk to deaf ears when you try to make her see that she is more to her husband anti her chil dren, just as she is. than if she were the most famous woman In the world, and that all that her friends ask of ter is just to be what site is. So this woman who is so blessed, Mil who blesses so many, in the do- J mestie relationship, misses the fine flower of happiness which should be hers because sin* has no sense of achievement, no thrill of victory, no realization of a great work well done. Instead she Is tVfnnented by an inces sant longing to do something that will have a public recognition and a price tag attached to if. Attitude Not Peculiar. Nor is her attitude toward her life work peculiar. It is practically uni versal among women. The women who are most envied are not the wom en with the best husbands,* th** finest homes und the most beautiful children. They are the successful professional women. Every woman who is before the pub lic knows what it is to have thousands of other women, women who are well married; who are handsomely dressed and have fine social positions, come to I her and say that they wish “they could do something.” “But.” says the working wornan ( “you have you husband and children and 1 home. Goodfiess knows, to take care of them is enough to keep any woman hustling." “Oh, yes," responds the domestic woman, “1 am kept busy about eigh ; teen hours a day, but I wish I could <io something that counted, something worth while." And there's no use arguing with her and try ing to make her see that there Is no other profession in the world that requires such varied attainments and such skill and wisdom as the rearing of a family, and the making of a real home. Nor is there any other work or* earth so important. Nothing More Pathetic. There is nothing more 'pathetic than that women have so little pride in the great work to which they are called by nature, but the reason of it is not hard ! to explain. It Is because wifehood and mother ; hood ami the making of a home are the only work in the world that is not con sidered to be worth some definite re- ; ct.rnpcnse us Its own reward. The sales girl is paid for her labor. The stenogra pher draws her salary. The actress, the singer, the newspaper woman, all have their weekly checks as a return for the service they have given, but the wife and mother gets only her board and * lot lies, and these are supposed to be given to her through the generosity of ' her husband, not us a return for her work. No ether laborer toils so many hours as the wife and mother, r»o other has ;uch heat \ responsibilities, and yet the woman who works her fingers to the bone cooking, and washing, and sweep ing, and nursing, and baby tending, is -poken of as being "supported” by the man for whom she does all of this in credible toil, and even the census report .cnies her a place in the list of working women. Never Has a Dollar. In the majority of households the wife and mother never has a dollar of her own that she can spend as she pleases. Often she ran run up extravagant bills, but she has the handling of no money, and when she does, it is always her hus- I band’s money. It is only in rare cases that a man is just enough to turn over to his wife money that he makes her feel that she bus earned, and that is her very own. an*l that she may spend as freely as the woman spends the money that she earns outside of the house. It is men who have taught women to huvo a contempt fthe work of wife and , mother and home maker by j listing it among the occupations that are not worth paying for. Men also have taught women to put a slight value upon the work of wife md mother ami home maker by with holding their praise. The domesli*' 1 woman’s angel <»f fame Is her husband. He cun eiown her with laurel or not. j And lie withholds his tribute until he ; Las it carved <*n her tombstone. Which j is a little late. The woman who does good work out- si.I*- of the home gets the glad hand from *11 about her. The woman who does superlative work in the home never hears « t it. It Is only when she makes mistakes and tlie hammer is brought forth that she hears what her husband thinks of her. and inasmuch as we are all more or less vain and thirst for praise it is no wonder that the out- d*lo world scents alluring to women. What He Needed. Among the members of a fashionabh club are a doctor and a minister, who delight in th** exchange of repartef touching their respective, professions. As they met one day, the minister ob served that he was “going to read to old Cunningham." adding (as lie was aware that the old man was a patient of his friend, the doctor), "Is he much worse?” With th** gravest of expressions, the physican replied: "He needs your help more than mine." < *ff his guard, the minister exclaimed anxicusly: "Poor fellow! Is It as bad as that?’ "Yes; he is suffering from insomnia. - Teacher (sternly) - Johnny, what Is the matter with your eye?
