4 fiHf U J JilLr Making Mother Over By BEATRICE FAIRFAX. BEAUTY SECRETS OF BEAUTIFUL WOMEN Little Viola Dana, "Ihe Poor ljttle Rich Girl," Talks to Girls in Their 'Teens o WITHIN THE LAW A Powerful Story of Adcenturc, Infringe and Love W HEN a glrj reachos 16. and her head Is turned as easily as thistledown, for the reason that it is ulmost as light, she becomes possessed with the belief that she is superior to her family, a delusion in " hii h her foolishly fond parents un consciously encourage her. £he is her parents' own child; that is stubborn fact that even romantic theories of being .the stolen offspring of royalty, of which she has read in the fairy tales, can't conquer. She is a rare blossom on a. parent stem that looks like a weed, and she wonder that there is no explanation of such a phenomenon. She learns at an earlier age than one would guess that she can't change her father. She can rule him, and dbes. but. being a man. he is satisfied to be what he is. He admits his off spring is a rare blossofri, but does not for a moment think that the father stem is a weed. Mother is different. One reason is that she is a woman and knows not that self-content that is wrapped around a man like the bandages around a mummy. And a greater reason is that she is Mother, and, therefore, humble. She also recog nizes that her offspring is a rare blos som, the quick eyes of her love mak ing this discovery the moment her baby daughter was first laid in her arms. Because of her love she makes humble comparison, and knows als i that she Is a weed. She doesn’t resent h r daughter’s air of superiority, but weakly and foolishly encourages it. thereby turn ing that little thistledown head i little further out of place. She Is Displeased. Naturally the conditions that exist in a home where a girl has been permitted to think she is a princess do not please her, and she begins the process of making over, alternating her work of reformation between the parlor and mother, the former receiv ing serious attention when she ex pects company and the latter engag ing her energies all the time. Mother's methods of pronunciation are not those in use now. and she is corrected and called old-fashioned, a term that loses its sweetness when a princess daughter applies it. Mother is too tired when night comes to pm on more becoming clothes, and daugh ter begins at the wrong end of the ( reformation by complaining about her | mother’s appearance instead of at taining the same end by making the work lighter. The family purse will not support more than one peacock. Mother Is glad to give daughter that roym plumage, and the girl accepts, and later complains when she struts around that her mother Is not dresse i a» well as other mothers she knows, forgetting that in those families the*' 1 are no peacocks and the sum alloted for royal plumage Is more justly di vided. I do not want girls to cease in th's reform of making mother over, but I want them to go at it in a better way. One can’t change a mother’s old-style clothes into new by complaining, but the change can be wrought by buyiug mother new clothes. If $10 is given a girl for a new hat and mother says she will make last season’s do. the daughter can make mother over by giving her the new hat and wearing the old herself. Another Way. If mother shows the unbecoming traces of hard labor, another way is offered for making her over by taking the burden of the home off her shoul ders. If the latest whim in a ribbon, a tie, hat. gloves. dress or shoes will improve daughter, wouldn't they als*. improve mother, and isn’t her need of improvement greater? One has ;hc adornment of youth and needs little, the other is showing all the disfigur ing marks of time and needs every assistance pretty clothes may give. Make mother over by making her think more of herself and less of oth ers! Such a reformation will be good for the whole family, but don’t, gins, I implore, go at this reformation i:i a high-handed, selfish way. Have pride in her and she will begin to have th< pride in herself of which many years of monotonous and unappreciated household work have robbed her. Make her over! Make her younvt and pretty and carefree again, and use in working the transformation the fairy wand of Love! By LILIAN LAUFERTY. I F you were only fifteen and had already begun climbing the high ladder that leads to success, would you be simple and natural and truly sweet? Little Viola Dana has net Come to the lofty estate of “Sweet Sixteen’’ yet, but she has already worked -her way from music hall dancing and “movies’’ and vaudeville skits to the enviable position of “A regular Broadway star.’’ And th. earnest little girl means to climb higher and higher, and be right at the top of her chosen profession some day if hard work can win her way to the top. In her dainty pink dressing room at the Hudson Theater in New York the 15-year-old star of “The Poor Little Rich Girl” looks like a real little rose bud of a girl—just as real a little girl as the Gwendolyn whose life she has stepped out of after living it for three hours. She was pulling black silk stock ings* over little bare feet and ankles as 1 came In, and with the sweetest, unself-consclousness she shook back her soft brown curls and rose to greet me with a mixture of childish en- things. Girls who art* willing to Juat stand still aren’t ever truly pretty, are they?” The little star’s eyes glowed with earnestness. Yes, those wonderful, deep eyes are green, and she frankly confesses It. “Maybe that’s jealousy,’’ she laughed. “I am Jealous if the people 1 love don’t love me enough and show it. You have to be worthy of it, or you don’t get it. And some day every girl wants to be found worthy of the biggest love. She wants to marry. 1 do! ” “You are planning an even fuller SYNOPSIS. Mary Turner, becoming an orphan, is thrown on her own resources She finds work at the Emporium, a de partment store owned by Edward Gilder; Is accused of the theft of silks, and sent to prison, though in nocent. She tells George Demarest, Gilder’s head lawyer, that the way to stop thievery is to pay a living wage. In prison she learned from fellow convicts why girls go wrong. She understands their point of view and sympathizes with them. Aggie Lynch, a convict friend of Mary’s at Hurnsing, sees good “possibilities’’ for her in the world of crime. Upon Mary’s release the slogan “once a criminal always one,’’ prevents her from securing work. She is contin ually hounded and In desperation throws herself into the North River. Toe Garson, a forger, rescues her and keeps her and Aggie In luxury, though living chaste lives. Mary reads that a famous financier escapes prison through keeping within the letter of the law' She follows his ex ample and becomes the leader of a band of swindlers, rotfbing only the unscrupulous. Gilder’s son Dick meets and loves Mary, who seeks to wreak vengeance on the father through the son Aggie poses as her cousin, and they pretend to be re spectable. They are visited by de tective Cassidy', who tries to scare Mary Into leaving town through threats. He Is laughed at for his pains, because she was “within the law." The detective, before leaving again, tells Aggie and .loe Garson that “there’ll be trouble’’ for them unless they get out of town.

A very girly leghorn hat went with it—and I could fancy Miss Viola looking like the dear little girl she is, instead of the silly, near-young-lady that some girls fancy they can ape more successfully than they can real ize the flowerlike sweetness of their own precious never-to-come-again- youth. “Girls have to be serious about th** qualities they want to cultivate,” I said, after I had paid due tribute ta the embryo woman wanting sartorial praise.

T HE Kingdom of Childhood is peopled with wicked elves, ghosts, ogres and hobgoblins, and we hide our heads under the bed covers and long to be grown up that we may vanquish them, little know ing that the Land of Grown-Ups has a greater terror. It Is the tyranny of criticism, and its name is “What Will Folks Say?” "No,” a girl says, “I am not going to the party. I want to,go, but I would have to wear my last season's party dress, and what would folks say ?.” “We can not afford to give that dinner,” a woman. will frankly con fess, “but if 1 don't u^y my social obligations what will folks say?” The sickness had been long, painful and costly, and when at last the suf- | ferer was mere!fill'v released the fam ily realized that the long siege had materially diminished the bank ac count. There were doctors’, drug gists’, undertaker’s and nurses' bills to pay, leaving scant protection against want. “But wo must buy mourning," the family declares, “for if # we don’t, what will folks say?” • Once Again. foolishly conjured to torment us. We are not honest, we are not nat ural. we are • distressingly self-con scious, w'e are not kind, we are cow ardly hypocrites in the presence of a hobgoblin that has no real exist ence. "What will folks say?”, you plead in defense of foolishness. Did you ever realize that you are of the "folks” to whom you credit such powers of condemnation? And do you, as one of the “folks," despise and condemn the woman who wears an old garment because she can not af ford a new? Do you look with an air of superiority at any honesty that dares to be honest? Don’t you really envy the spirit of the woman w ho can rise above all consciousness of clothes? Your Reply.

Her eyes steadfastly retained their clear gaze into his; her voice was still coldly ! formal, as before. "If it’s blackmail, Mr. Irwin, why don’t you consult the police?” she inquired, with manifest disdain. Mary turned to the maid, who now entered in response to the bell she had sound ed a minute before. “Fanny, will you ask Miss Lynch to come in, please?” Then she faced the lawyer again, with an aloofness of manner that was con temptuous. "Really, Mr. Irwin.” she ! drawled, “why don’t you take this matter to the police?" The rqply was uttered with con spicuous exasperation. Police Wouldn’t Keep It Secret. “You know perfectly well," the law- j yer said bitterly, “that General Hast ings can not afford such publicity. His position would be jeopardized.” “Oh, as for that," Mary suggested evenly, and now there was a trace of flippancy in her fashion of speaking, “I am sure the police would keep your complaint a secret. Really, you know, Mr. Irwin. I think you had bet ter take your trouble to the police, rather than to me. You will get much more sympathy from them.” The lawyer sprang up. v/ith an air of sudden determination. “Very well, I will then,” he declared, sternly. “I will.” Mary, from her vantage point at the desk across from him, smiled a smile that would have been very en gaging to any man under more favor able circumstances, and she pushed In his direction the telephone that stood there. “3100 Spring," she remarked en couragingly. "will bring an officer al most immediately.” She leaned back In her chair and surveyed the baffled man amusedly. Tho lawyer was furious over the failure of his effort to intimidate this extraordinarily self-possessed young woman, who made a mock of his every thrust. Hut he was by no means at the end of his resources. “Nevertheless,” he rejoined, "you know perfectly well that General Hastings never promised to marry this girl. You know He broke off as Aggie entered the drawing room. Now. the girl was demure in seem ing almost beyond belief, a childish creature, very fair and dainty, guile less surely, with those untroubled eyes of blue, those softly curving lips of warmest red and the more deD irate bloom in the rounded cheeks. There were the charms of innocence and simplicity in the manner of her as she stopped just within the door way, whence she regarded Mary with a timid, pleading gaze, her slender little form poised lightly as if for flight. “Did vou want me, dear?” she asked. There was something half- plaintive in the modulated cadences of the query. “Agnes,” Mary answered affection ately. “this is Mr. Irwin, who has come to see you in behalf of Gen eral Hastings.’’ "Oh!” the girl murmured. li|*r voice quivering a little, as the law yer, after a short nod, dropped again into his seat; “oh, I’m so frightened!” She hurried, fluttering, to a low stool behind the desk, beside Mary’s chair, and there she sank down, drooping -lightly, and catching hold of one of Mary’s hands as if in mute pleading for protection against the fear that beset her chaste soul. "Nonsense!” Mary exclaimed sooth ingly. "There’s rtally nothing at all to be frightened about, my dear • hild." Her voice was that with which one seeks to cajole a terrified infant. "You mustn’t be afraid, Ag nes Mr. Irwin says that General Hastings did not promise to marry you Of course, you understand, my dear, that under no circumstances must you say anything that isn’t strictly true and that, if he did not promise to marry you, you have no case—none at all. Now, Agnes, tell me; did General Hastings promise to marry you?” “Oh, yes—oh, yes, Indeed!” Aggie ‘Tied, falteringly. "And I wish he would. He’s such a delightful old gentleman!’’ As she spoke, the girl let go Mary’s hand and clasped her own together ecstatically. He Scowled Disgustedly. The legal representative of the de lightful old gentleman scowled dis gustedly at this outburst. His voice was portentous, as he put a ques tion. "Was that promise made in writ ing?” • / “No,” Aggie answered, gushingly. "But all his letters were In writing, you know. Such wonderful letters!” She raised her blue eysh toward the ceiling in a naive rapture. "So ten der and so—er—interesting!" Some how, the inflection on tne last word did not altogether suggest the ingen uous. 1 Yes, yes. 1 dare say,” Irwin agreed, hastily, with some evidences of chagrin. He had no intention of dwelling on that feature of the let ters. concerning which he had no doubt whatsoever, since he knew the amorous general very well, indeed They would be interesting, beyond shadow of questioning, horridly in teresting. Such was the confessed opinion of the swain himself who had written them in his folly—horribly interesting to all the reading public of the country, since the general was a conspicuous figure. Mary intervened with a suavity that infuriated the lawyer almost be yond endurance. "Hut you're quite sure, Agnes," she questioned gently, “that (xenera! Hastings did promise to marry you?” The candor of her manner was per fect. And the answer of Aggie was* given with a like convincing emphasis. “Oh, yes!” she declared, tensely. "Why, I would swear to it.” The limpid eyes, so appealing in their soft lusters, went first to Mary, then gazed trustingly Into those of the routed at torney. "You see. Mr. Irwin, she would swear to that,” emphasised Mary. "We’re beaton," he confessed, de jectedly, turning his glance toward Mary, whom, plainly, he regarded a« his real adversary in the combat on his client’s behalf. "I’m going to b^ quite frank with you. Miss Turner, quite frank,” he stated with more gen iality. though with a very crestfallen air. Smnehow, indeed, there was just a shade too much of the crestfallen in the fashion of his utterance, and the woman whom he addressed watched warily as he continued. “Wh can’t afford any .‘■ •andal, so we’re go ing to settle at your own terms.” He paused expectantly, but Mary offered no comment; only maintained her alert scrutiny of the man. The law yer. therefore, leaned forward with a semblance of frank eagerness. In- stantly, Aggie had become agog with greedily blissful anticipations, and she uttered a slight ejaculation of Joy; hut Irwin paid no heed to her. He was occupied in taking from ids pocket a thick bill case, and from this presently a sheaf of banknotes, which he laid on the desk before Mary, with a little laugh of discomfiture over having been beaten In the contest. As he did so. Aggie thrust forth an avaricious hand, but it was caught and held by Mary *be fore It reached above the top of the desk, and the avaricious gesture passed unobserved by the attorney. “We can’t fight where fadies are concerned," lie went on, assuming, ar best he might contrive, a chivalrous tone. "So, if you will just hand over General Hastings' letters, why, here’s your money.” Much to the speaker's surprise, there followed an interval of silence, and his puzzlement showed in the knitting of his brows. "You have the letters, haven't you?" he demanded, abruptly. Aggie coyly took a thick bundle from iti* resting place on her rounded bosom. “They never leave me.” she mur mured. with dulcet passion. There was in her voice a suggestion of deso lation a desolation that was -the blighting effect of letting the cher ished missives go from her.
