WHAT EVERY WOMAN WANTS TO KNOW THINGS THAT INTEREST MAID AND MATRON ELLEN ADAIR MEETS AN AMUSING GIRL, WHO ADVISES HER r m Br TO She Learns to Typewrite, and Takes Up a Tempor ary Position in a Large City Office, xv. The seeing ye nnd understanding heart find kindly folk abounding everywhere. My second night In Philadelphia I felt et sad, and then a kindly thing occuned Vo cheer me on my lonely, quiet way Outside tho movlng-plcture house where I hail seen that lovely play called "Hearts Adrift," I was accosted by a cheory.glrl ksh Voice. "Gee whiz, there, kid' Aln t Jqu the little English girl who didn't un derstand the working of the phone up In our oltlce?" 1 tumid around, nnd saw one of the girls who had so laughed at me before. I nodded, and a lump came to my throat 1 felt Just like the story-girl In "Hearts Adrift" for I was drifting, drifting all alone, quite penniless, and with no friends at alt. "I know I blundered dreadfully today," I sadly said. "Oh, Ish geblbble about that, my dear!" finld she, "after ou left, we all did feel real mean. The boss pitched into us Just . .jrlBht and left iald you were a real lady, and wu all were mutts! I know l m tough, but I should worry Still, I did feel so sorry after I seen you run right out llko that. I chased right to the levator after you, but you had gone. ' "I know I acted stupidly, and proed quite Inefficient, too," I said. "It was the best thing I could do. to go!" The girl seized both my hands In hers. "Say. klddo now," she cried, "maybe you ain't the sweetest, most forgiving little soul! Let me advise you about get ting another job. Can you typewrite"" "I cannot but I'd like to learn," said I. She nodded sagely In reflective mood. "I have a gen'l'man friend, u real cutey he Is, Just the dandiest lookln' chap, that works for a typewriting firm in town I'll tip this guy a wink, and then I guess he'll fix It up so's you can go and prac tice on his firm's machines. I reckon you could learn within a week from now. If you Just practiced hard. Do you get me, Steve?" Her language did seem strange, but still I saw she was a kindly gill, and I accepted her kind offer then and there. A FRIEXD AT COURT. "If you are stuck for money " she con tinued cheerfully, "just take my tip, and pawn a thing or two! I have another gen'l'man friend, a Jew he is, who doe3 a little business In that line. He has th cutest little pawnshop on the street! No, don't thank me. oecause I always like to put a bit of business In Abraham Ebe nezer Cohen's way! I figure out that if I work things well, why some day I mav be why. Mrs. Abe! I have a heavy date with him tonight, so I'll be off' Meet mo tomorrow right at Glmbel's door at S o'clock!" and she was off. I spent the following week In hardest work. I moved to a much cheaper lodg ing house and sold some little trifles of my own to none other than the respect ed Mr Abraham Cohen, so that I could have this one, clear wcel: for cultivating the gentle art of typewriting. I prac ticed till my eyes and head and heart all ached together! "Why. klddo you can hit the ivories like a streak now!" said my new-found champion chcei fully, at the end of the week. So I secured a temporary post a "sub stitute" In a big office close to Market street. LIFE IN AX OFFICE. In all my life I never shall forget that week! The sun shone blazing hot until the very pavements cracked, and human heads seemed fated to emulate the strange antics of the cracked pavement, too, in sympathy. I sat all day at a large, awe-inspiring desk, with a great typewriter In front of me, and by my side the assistant manager Bat all day, a little, dark, good-looking, nervous man. We worked from early morn till dewy .-ve, and oh! my ineffl clency worried him' Those endless, end less orders to be entered! "I get so neivous," he explained to me, confidingly, while he dictated, "for all those infernal orders must go through tonight, although the very heavens should fall! For heaven's sake, Miss Adair, don't you get nervous, too, or we are lost' Please, please, don't twist your fingers, or you'll make me Jumpier than I am' Oee whiz, life Is Just one darned thing after another, isn't It?" From 9 till " o'clock we worked away, the little man and I. Without a coat or collar he sat there, the perspiration trickling down his anxious little face. At Intervals, his zeal to help quite got the better of his common sense, and he would fall upon the typewriter and turn Its rolling wheel with such strange vio lence that it gave on gentle sigh, and, with hurt dignity, refuted to act' No chauffeur ever cranked his motorcar with keener energy than did the assistant man. nger that .indent typewriter!

"Within three joars." said Miss Dom ina Marlnl, premiere danseuse, "every body will be doing classic dances. Thuy are not dlflirult, and will come Into their , own when people take them up and learn what they are llko in their pursuit of j dancing novelties." , Miss Marini has tho stellar dancing part In "Pilate's Daughter" at the Chest nut Street Opera House. She appears In i the Roman dances that were the prevail- , Ing mode MOO years ago. In which time i tho scenes of the play are laid. "The modern dances," she said, "after starting out badly have developed Into very graceful nnd altogether delightful pastimes. Cut the novelty is bound to , wear off and people grow tired of them. This will come. I should say, In two or j three years. Then will come the turn j of the classic dances, for the world at large, having tasted the joys of dancing, will not abandon it. It is simply a ques tion of variety, that Is nil. "Everybody should bo able to do them. They are an expression of feeling, nnd all that Is essential is a thorough under standing of the spirit of them. To dance as one feels is surely easier than to school oneself In the complicated se quences of mechanical steps such as a pioflclency In the modern dances requires. "Even if the classic dances do become a fad, I do not mean to say there will be many great dancers. The great exponents of the modern dances arc ft-w and far between. But I do believe that the aver age classic dancer will be Just as pro ficient nnd Just as easily so as the aer- age dancer of toda " O The touch of fiost in the air makes the question of sweaters and sweater coats a timely one. It Is 11 garment that has emerged from a very seveie form of the purely practical to something quite shapely and boautl fullv colored, like a butterfly from Its chrysalis. It is true that beauty has its price, nnd the day when $3 purchased tho best sweater In the market might be relegated to the Middle Age of those garments. There Is one nt that price, however, that Is most attractive. It is a woven mixture of the autumn reds and browns and greens, with the giecns predominat ing. It has an '""ira-llke surface and Is called Angora cloth. Knit sweater iu.it- aie sold at J6.50. These have coliais and cuffs, pocket flaps and belts of a continstlng color to that of the sweater Itself, or white on n color. There are two weaves at this price and two weights. At $9 a sweater similar In stylo but of a liner wool is sold. The colors are softer, as If the wool were hand dyed. A sweater, scarf and enp are sold, each one separately, but designed so unmis takably for wearing together that no one would dream of buying only the sweater. The sweater costs $", the scarf $2.50 and the cap $2.50. They would be very suitable for tho college girl. The artificial silk Introduced recently makes most attractive sweater coats. With coat collars and lapels and cuffs, pockets and a belted back the price Is $13.C0. In the simple sweater form the price Is $12. These are light but warm, nnd tho colors are particularly beautiful. From here the prices soar until the sweater becomes a rare exotic far re moved fiom-the i-enslble, serviceable gar ment of its origin. HE DID HIS BEST At a seaside resort a lady bather got out of her depth, nnd her screams soon brought to the rescue one of the boatmen whot.e business It was to succor anyone In difficulties. A few strokes carried him to the spot, and he reached out a muscular arm to grip the poor lady, who was just about to sink. But her frnntic struggles just at this moment dislodged her bathing cap, which soon floated away, earning with It, which was more precious, her wig. "Oh, savo my hair!" sho cried. "Save ijv hair'" "Madam." replied tho gallant rescuer, hauling her in. "I am only a llfeaver. m t a hair-restorer." :?tx wiu 2Ll (htfSPlHHt WWW smM kmMSmsM M EXTREME MODELS EXAGGERATE NEW IDEAS IN FASHION They Are Sign Posts Indi cating the Way, but Dei Not Constitute the Way Itself. A woman who shops with care nnd who selects tho modified styles lather than the extremes runs no risk of finding 4icrsclf In possession of garments thnt have be come pnsso after n few weeks' wear. Many of the models are an exaggeration of new Idcns In fashion. In order to at tract attention they must be conspicuous. But they should servo ns sign posts to point the wny rather than tho way It self. Only the woman who can afford to toss a garment aside nftor appealing In it a few times should buy anything bizarre or extrangont in style. Not even then, in tho opinion of some of the arbiters of good taste. The shops now nre full to overflowing with blouses from the simplest to tho very elnbointe and from the reasonable In price to tho most exorbitant. The tailor-made suit has returned to us, nt first unobtrusively, as if afraid of its welcome, but now steadily gaining In as surance. For morning wear with the tailored suit there nre any number of simple blouses made of bntlfite and flno linen and the thin, soft silks. For afternoon wear nnd for dress oc casions there arc blouses of chiffon or lace, or both. TiACK COVERS CHIFFON NOW. Last season lace was veiled with chif fon, but now there Is a roverscmont, n turning Inside out, for the lace covers the chiffon In the new blouses. This feature Is Illustrated by the blouse shown In today's picture. The pattern of the lace shows to much better advantago over chiffon than It would over satin or silk. The collar Is high, and It Is wired to hold It In position. It Is made of black satin, faced with white satin, and the blnck satin Is used again for girdle and cliffs. The sleeve Is not only long, but very long. The lace iiiffle fnlls over the hand, coming out from under the pointed cuff, which Is ornamented with a motif of soutache braid. The wido girdle of black satin Is treated In an Individual way. Tho Inset nt the back, which Ik defined by a piping of the satin, Is quite heavily trimmed with the braid. Last season soutache braid was seen on an occasional silk or chiffon blouse, but this year, prssibly owing to its mili tary character. It Is having a genuine vogue. A'ery often the single width Is used in quite Intricate designs. Again it Is seen in rows, set solidly or apart, as one pleases. The blouse pictured would not be a difficult one to make at home. And nn original or Individual design for the braiding would give It distinction.

WKB& WKT1 y a,?M..WTTfj.-Mfi-.nyr1rm -Y ff r mrmt sr DOMINA MARINI Premiere danseuse, who foresees universal adoption of classic dancing. By BURTON X. STANDISH ROME,. Ga., Sept. 30. When some on In years to come writes the life history of President Wilson much of It will be woven around this little city where Ellen Louise Axson-WUson, the President's wife, was born, nnd where, on August 11, 1914, she was burled. Almost every one here repeats at the least solicitation beautiful little stories aoout the President "love affair" with "Mips Axson." Almost every one knows that the President was formally intro duced to her here In the First Presby terian Church, where her father was pas tor for 1" j ears. And many relate how, beside the Third Street Bridge over the Onawah Rher, President Wilson proposed to the minister's daughter. When one knows that the President "fell in love" with Mrs. Wilson here, that he courted her here, that he pledged his life to her here, one can understand why he, as President of the United States, should travel TOO miles away from Wash ington to bring her to her final resting place. Tho President's feeling Is believed to be exactly as expressed by his brother-in-law, Professor Stockton Axson, In a tele gram after the funeral to a sister of Mrs. Wilson, who was III In Oregon. When the funeral party was on the special train. Professor Axson sent this telegram to his sick sister: "i:erythlng was beautiful. We left sis. ter with father and mother." And they did, for Mrs. Wilson was burled In Myrtle Hill Cemetery beside her father and mother. While the President remembers meet ing Mrs. Wilson here; In fact, he had met and plaed with her years before he was a young man. For one week, when the President was only three or four eara old, Mrs Wilson's father and mother went to Atlanta to visit Presi dent Wilson's parents. There the Presl dent met Kllen Axson, then a cute baby only a year old, and for the whole week refused to leave her. It Is even stated that the President cried bltteily when the Axsons left Atlanta for Rome. A few ears later Thomas Woodrow Wilson and his father, also a minister, went to Rome, Oa., to visit the Rev. Mr Axson Here the President again met the little girl. Then she was about ihht years old. and they "ran hoops" ai.d played together along the Etowah River banks. But the future President was destined to make another shift, and from then uottl he was a young lawyer living in Atlanta he did not visit this city. Atlanta is about 6S miles from Rome One day when the President was carry ing on his unsuccessful law practice he journeed over to Rome, spent the Sun day here and attended the Firit Preb Ujtenan Church At the service he no t ced a oung woman whose beautiful face attracted him and he asked to be introduced It was another case of "love at first eight " and It Is declared that the Presi dent and Mifcs Axson "had an under ttandlng" ver shoitly afterward, al though the were not ensued for several weeks Within a year or so they were rrarrled, and Rome, ua the seene of their early love, was endeared to them forever afterward. Joins in Discussion on Believing Wo man of Weary Drudgery. Dealing with the topic of Wife's Dull Round of Household Duties, first dis cussed In tho Issue of Soptembcr 2S, many letters have been received. Great dlveigency of opinion continues. The views of "Hopeful Bachelor" offer a solution to the problem. Tho Editor of the Woman's Pago will be glad to pub lish letters dealing with this topic. Happy Married Man Writes To the Editor of the Woman's I'agc, Evening Ledger: Madam "Appreciative Husband," It seems to me, takes a very myopic view of the duties of a wife. In not taking his wife Into his confidence. In not sliming with her his business troubles, he falls to nvall himself of one of the most blessed privileges of the married life. The wife should bo a mate In every sense of the word. There should be mentnl accord. Neither should con ceal anything from the other. Psycho logical comfort Is more to be desired than physical. , HAPPILY MARRIED MAN'. Philadelphia, September 23, 1911. Xike "Modern Wife's" Letter To (lie Editor of the Woman's rage, Evening Ledger: Madam I think the letter of "Modern Wife," as published in your paper of yesterday, is exceedingly sensible and very much to the point. I only wish I hnd the courage and the initiative to take up a stand such as she does In my home. My llfo seems to be ono long round of cooking and preparing meals, and If I can find time once In three months to go to the theatre with an other woman, I feel very lucky. My husbund believes that the wife's place Is In the home, and, Indeed, I have so many household duties that his belief works out very thoroughly. I have been married for ten years, nnd have had very little of the gaieties and pleasures that most women of my age enjoy. "Modern Wife's" letter of yesterday's date encourages mo to take up a more determined stand In the future, for I feel that I am growing old before my time. HARASSED HOUSEWIFE. Germantown, Sept. 30, 19H. Bachelor Offers Advice To the Editor of the Woman's rage, Evenlnn Ledger: Madam Woman's sphere Is tho home a very trite phrase, indeed! Is the woman perpetually bound to her four walls by tho marriage vows? The mod ern woman fortunately does not take this archaic view. She is hungry for culture and self-development, the acquisi tion of which comes mainly from con tact with the great world outside, far from her own Penates. Recently I heard propounded a very workable and rational solution of one phase of the marital problem, whereby the Irksome and monotonous round of exlstenco can be much mollified nnd brightened by an occasional Interlude of wholesome relaxation. This plan does not go to the Havelock Ellis extreme, but provides for one night of absolute freedom each week, for hus band and wife. They may go whither soever their Interest may Impel them. the man to his club, the woman to hers, nerhnns. or to some other object of feminine Interests. This occasional break In tho dlly, aye yearly, intimacy will help to dispel the dread dullness nnd boredom that hovers about so many homes todny, and makes for so many marital mishaps. As a bachelor, contemplating matri mony. I humbly offer this suggestion for the careful consideration of those already , in double narness. HOPEFUL BACHELOR. Philadelphia, Sept. . 1814. MISSION COTTAGE FURNITURE ADAPTED TO BUNGALOW Soft Dull Finish Preferable for Camp and Enameled for Seashore. Mission cottage furniture is partlcu. larly appropriate In a bungalow bedroom of this type, and, with a wide cholco of color and finish, It Is posslblo to carry out any scheme of decoration at a very reasonable cost. Tho soft dull finish In tho many brown similes, silver gray or sage green, Is en peclally desirable for camp bungnlows, while the enameled finish seems pecu liarly npproprlato for tho cottage at the seashore. Of course, all varieties of this attractive furniture may be used de lightfully in the suburban house. Tho rafters In the room here pictured seem to be part of tho furniture and add greatly to the checrlness and bright ef fect of tho room, tho note of color, of course, being In tho curtains. And what an endless variety of color and pattern can bo found these days at little prices Many reproductions of ex pensive English chintz patterns may bo bought for IS to 25 cents a yard, and tho most commonplace room oan be transformed with dainty cretonne cur tains, ruffled bedspreads and chair cush ions made to match. If tho wall paper Is self-toned or plain, one may select most any pattern, dashing or otherwise. If, on tho other hand, the paper Is fig ured, a plain material must bo used or the effect will be restless, an Important feature to consider In a bedroom. Ad justable curtain rods of the cornice type arc much more desirable and new or than the rods with the hopelessly ugly balls on the ends. Curtains with a valance ruffled or plaited aro always attractive, but a new, or rather old idea rovlvcd. Is tho wooden cornice covered with cretonne concenllng the rod, on which the curtains may be opened or diawn at will by means of n cord with tassel ends, which can cosily bo applied, making a very pretty finish. The floor of this dainty room, in two shades of wood, Is a new and good ef fect, while tho sturdy little mission beds completo an attractive room.
