For to bc boieil Is rnshloiinble, and to exhibit symptoms of genuine enJo.Miienl and satisfaction with lire Is cunsnleteu Just a shade Itlbictl not quite "commc 'I fnut," as It weie! The reason for tlih stranucly disillu sioned point of view In so many young people is just n little odd! Why on earth aren't they having 'a better time? And If some of them by any chance are having a pood time, and If It's only our stupidity Hint falls to see the merriment thoy iso successfully hide, then why on earth don't they show their reelings n llttlo more? Why do they maintain that wonderfully Stoical calm, that cool ac ceptance ot all the pood things or llfu and With no word of gratitude to an all-wise Providence for bestowing so many won derful things upon tlicni? To call the .voting-old class Stoical, by the way. Is a contradiction In teiina. For tho Stoics accepted pain and disappoint nicnt with Hi. miiim calm, icululc out look as they accepted good fortune. Hut the modern uung man or woman does nothing of the sort. While they accept the good things of life without so much as a woul or thaul.s, most asauicdly do they uplift t'nelr voices In loud lamenta tion If the slightest little iIlo of ma chinery gets out or gear In theii we.l ollcd II e of amusement. Tho ince fot pleasuic, the wild competi tion In social lire the rear or what people will say, all do much to produce this "don't care'' altitude In the modern man and maid. Not even In their love affairs aie they enthusiastic. And a hair-heaited love alTalr Is the most depieaslng thing under the sun. moon or stars or, to be mu accuiate, under the clcctilc light. Yet these odd, liuir-hearted love affairs are rashlonable nowadujs The young folks don't seem to find much plcasuie THE DAILY STORY 5M ' dj l a Lily of Norah Fogarty knelt In the dim church nd prayed not for absolution, but for a new gown. It was the Wednesday before Hauler. Tim McCarthy's Invitation to tn annual ball ot "The Older or the Golden Fleece" on Kastcr Monday night luj tear-stained and ciumpled on the cushion beiilnd lift . and Noinh. like her predecessor lu woe, Floia McFllmsey, had nothing to wear that Is, nothing wot thy of Hie annual ball of the aforc-mcntlnned association. .And Norah loved Tim. She hud told him at his very urgent request some months before, and they bad agreed to wait patiently and decently until Tim's two young sisters had become self-supporting and the lover could afford to set up an establishment of his own at a safe distance from the noisy Hat occupied "by his widowed mother and her brood. Norah, too, had her responsibilities. Her father was one of those happily constituted Individuals who believed that the world owed him a living, and It happened that from his point of view just now Nornh repiesented the world. And when one'w mother sprains her wrist and cannot malte buttonholes for threo weeks, and one's little brother Is so Inconsiderate as to contract u stub born nttack of measles, one may not lay tip money for bull gowns. So Norah prayed In the firm belief that tho Mother of Sorrows, who had answered her petition for her own mother's recovery two jears back at the hospital, would incline her ear to bo personal a request as a new dress. The answer came In less than 10 min utes, Norah acuriied mound the corner and plunged Into the lunchtlde throng nhlch filled Broadway from window to curb- A man Jostled her rudely, and with the tiue womanly Instinct she turned to Uie nearest window to see , hether her liat vvus on straight. The window lipid PEyIIv .j IK ti nothing but paper, crepe paper, tissue ifor uaeiaper, stamped paper, paper shades for lichool JirnPs paper (lowers, paper frames and . JC- UU11D pins cNorali forgot her hat. and her artistic e eiiiya rejoiced In the wealth of dainty (n cor colorings. She had never dreamed that pauer came in much ueautltiil patteruu. Then Norah gasped. Her hand closed qouvuUlvely over her puise it held a dollar that she could spare. Norah shut her eyes far Just an instant, as if the thought made her dizzy, then with ery vlnk cheeks and her bead held high Rnd marched Into the store. " "Yea, we have It In pink the brocade, yqu. mean? Twenty cents a roll, eight yards to the roll. For a dress um-um! Why, if you sewed It on a foundation of tariatan or cheese cloth. I think two roJJ wou'd make it Yes. we have the mme abade In plain tissue. Twenty-rlve kherta? No. 1 tblnk I'd use the sage tsreep. for stems. It's softer. Sixty-three. Thsuiks." And Norah wan again speeding MP the istrtet, bcr eye very bright and a bulky jiacKase tucked securely under her arms. For the ball or the Order of the Gol jdort FItece was to be a fancy dress af fair, pd if Mary O'Hearn could go as "Uopep" In Mewed calico and a straw hat, why could not Norah Fosarty wear $am tbat looked much finer than calico? f$ i sure," Wiry O'llaro. was hiring tetr wwtuawr at the exorbitant price of Jgjft Nimiuj knrw for eh usd rouu to tt tmm iffliimfi a e wlislbw ay jhjn w4 tw rj4 for one dollar.

For their lack of aidor Is scarcely llatteilng to either patty. And ct they would be curloutly "lost" without them; that Is the dlsagieeahle patt of It. To lake no very keen pleasure In the affair, and .Vc'. to be oddly unhanpv without It Is typical of the model n engagement. It seems to be merely n question of custom, and not n queillon of youthful ln fatuatlon nl nil. One wnti'il expect this at lltudo of inlii. I In old folks and not In tbo Jounger generation. After ninny, many cnts of matrimony, one would e.pcet the Great Adventure to cease being the wildly thrilling alTalr It was in the eatly days, and settlo Into something much more prosaic, easy-going and comfort able. Hut one nowadays sees nothing of the sort. For the old folks nt home nre the pcoplo who really are romantic, and the young folks who arc foreer gadding abioad are the bored, half-hearted, blase loveis! Have you ever heard the modern en gaged couple talking to each other over the telephone, for Instance? Although the telephone Is not n p.iitlcularly romantic Instrument, one would still expect more romantic or, at anv into, less prosaic lit. terancCK to be wafted over the wltc. "Hello, Mary," the enamored lover will murmur Into the phone In an absent minded Way. "Haven't seen ,ou for nearly 10 days! Guess I'm too Hied to cotno mound tonight. I may look lu to monow If 1 feel like It." And Mary. In no way nnno.ved by these stratmc manifestations or cnthusLiMii, will reply bilsUly, "That's all light, John, hut don't bother coming to see me lo uioriow night, an I've ananged to go to the theatre with Jim Smith." John licicupon showed sjmptom of quito obvious iclief, tlie'whlle Ills faithful little lldiu'co continues clicoi full : "I've IKed up dates for every evening this week and Sundav I'm going away for the day. I guess you could come to see ! me Monday night, and anyhow, It would j bc a good time foi mo to stay home and mend stockings. Theie's such a pile walling to be done and mother never slops talking about them: Yes, como ainund next Monday night, John." So John possesses his soul in patience till Monday night. At the rated hour he duly nrrlvos and with him his trens uied companion, the evening paper, lie greets Mary with a bicezy "uello," sinks Into Hie almchulr. lights his pipe and opens out his paper with an anticipatory sigh or enjoyment. Mary settles licisclf to thai darning busbies and there Is a piofound and peaceful silence In the loom. Both ale quito content and both aro peifectly satisfied with the arrange ment. And this Is perfectly typical of many a modern engagement. d ' ' id - d the Field lands of blossoms to trim her gown as never u 5th avenue belle Impoited from Pat Is. Precious little did Tim McCnithy see of -his sweetheart for tbo next few da.vs, for Noi.ih had much lo do. and she put him off on the plea that he bad a gicat surprise coming for the ulglil of the ball. And surprised he was. When he called ut the Foguity lint on Hastcr Monday night, honest iiin could hardly believe his own e.ves. Never outside of plctuio books had he been such n vision In pink as Norah, her eses Bhlnlng like twin stars, her soft, blown hair waved above her Ivory-white brow and crowned with a dainty wreatli of carnationn Just burst ing Into bloom. "Stand your distance, Tim," said Norah with a nervous little laugh. "Suie, mother and mo have worked the week like twin slaves, un' you mustn't mu-a it now." "I'm glad I brought a carriage," said Tim, his eyes glowing ptoudly, "for no fairy like me Norali should be walking to Powers' ball. Sine, It wouldn't sur prise me at all If Mr. Huggan, president of the association, asked you to lead Hie grand march with hhn.' "Uon't be teasing me, Tim." said Norah, but It was to her mother that she turned to have tho fleecy fascinator and tho old-fashioned paisley shawl wrapped about her. Hut Tim proved to be a good proplut, for the president of the association had a keen eye for Irish beauty, and It was Norah'H pretty faco he saw long before he noticed the dress with its garlands ot Mowers. "Sure, you nero the bello of the ball, Norah, an' I'm that proud of you, I can t tell It. I asked llnggau to be the best man, Norah, an' he accepted on the spot How's that for a compliment to ou'' And your card looks like the pencils had been daucin' a jU on it, with Ivery dance di vided Into parts. There wasn't a girl In the room could touch you, Norah, and you made me think of thlm verses from the Hlhlo about the lilies of the Held givin' pointers to Solomon himself," Norah did not answer. Something very like a sob followed bis words, and then North's bead drooped wearily. She was crying softly. "Norah, me elrl, what's wrong with you'f" asked Tim, anxiously, "Maybe you've danced too much?" "No, no." sobbed Norah, "but I'm ashamed to look you in the face, Tim. I've deceived you, you being a man and knowing nothing about clothes. Me dress was made of paperand the girls have been making fun of me, as you tbousht was the belle of the ball," Tim reached fr her hot. trembling hangs, and smiled In the darkness of the cab. "Sure I knrw It from the start, Norah You niver decayed me a bit. "Twaa Mary O'Hearn that let me know at once whin you walked 'iff with Haggan. Sure she was that Jealous, he couldn't hold in the information. An' listen, me girl. I d rather oud wear paper that's paid for, than satin that ain't, or hired clothes that there's no tellln" who's wore before you. It tells me pialn that you won't be run pin' up bills for me (o pay when we're roarrled; an' now being as the dress won t (ver be worn again, there's no harm doue."

If he Is don't take him too seriously. And why? Because, if jou do, there Is alwajs n gicat piobabllity that be will Imagine Hint there Is a good roundatlon for his foolish want of trust. A lover Is Inclined, perhaps naturally, to be a trifle Jealous of the beloved one; but even this usually haimless character istic should not be Pneourugcd overmuch. As for suspicion. It should never raise Us ugly head In the pnradlse of love; If It does. It will spoil everything nnd cast a gloom over what should be undiluted happiness. A wise girl will therefore always try gently to laugh her sweetheart out of such unplensant fancies; of course, she will be careful not to give him reason to begin them, but If they do unluckily crop up, then bhe will do her utmost to banish them. Kindly laughter will often do more lo make a man see that he has been foolMi and wrong than any nmoiint of the best lutentioncd scolding or leproachcs. The latter aio apt to le.ne a soreness and resentment behind them, whereas a good-natured laugh leaves no sting of any sort. The very fact of smiling over a matter together makes a bond of union and har mony.

SPRING STYLES AS SEEN ON FIFTH AVENUE The coming of spring Js heralded by the appearance of new smart styles in suits, millinery, fqotwear and all that goes to make the toilette of the fashionable Woman, In particular is this spring productive in new fan cies.

She sees her husband off to the city every morning na If It weie a last farewell; nnd If by any chance ho should be half an hour late In the evening, he llnds his wife In ii perfect frenzy of anxiety as to what may have happened to him. This kind or thing Is so unnecessary and very boilng lo a man. She Is Just the same with her children. "Be careful," "Mind jou don't hurt yourself," nre her most constant remarks to the little ones. Well, of course, all mothers aie an xious for their families.' welfare, but It t Is a great mistake for any woman to al low herself to get Into tlm habit of al ways anticipating troubles nnd worries. Don't allow yourself to llvo in a stute of fear. Hnlf the things you worry about will never happen. Troubles are bad enough when they do come, but by constantly dwelling on gloomy eventualities one loses tho sticngth which will cairj one successfully through the teal worries of life.

An Afternoon Froclc- 1 saw the most effective afternoon frock the other day, nnd, as I had almost for gotten to buy any new clothes for my self in my rffotts to help Elinor out, I went Into the shop Immediately for ft closer inspection. I said the frock was effective, mid I know this Is a terribly overworked wold, but this was such nn odd go nn Hint It Is tho only wny to de scribe, It at nil. It was a very handsome bended affair, more like a bizarre evening gown than nn Afternoon frock, although the woman In tho shop said It might bc worn on both occasions If I wanted to economize. 1 don't know whether It is economy or not to buy n gown which mounts up to three figures, but I did It Just the same.

All tho smnrt tai lored suits and street gowns aro made In dark colors, navy nnd midnight blue being the most lu demand. Here are n few street gowns which may bo bought nt a large Market street store for JIG. One was a navy blue taffeta house dress, with tiny straps over tho shoulders, nnd a full, flaring skirt, laid In deep plaits at tho hips. A black and whlto striped belt outlined tho high waist line, and was rather wider than tho ex tremely narrow ones seen on tho gowns this season. Novelty black-and-white buttons decorated the front of the blouse, which was also made of the taffeta. A combination of materials Is always attractive, and another gown nt tho same prlco was shown with this effect. The blouse wns mado ot natural silk pongee, nnd the skirt of navy blue taffeta. Tho popular straps were used over each shoul der, and tho blouse Itself was finished off with dainty collars nnd cuffs of batiste. Buttons were nlso used as trimming In the front and the skirt wns wide. A rather elaborate gown was made of taupo faille, with gold nnd gray em broidery. The skirt was entirely made of knlfo plaits, with two pockets on the sides, a short and very ornato coatee. Trifles Once In n lifetime, perhaps, we como to some gieat turning-point, when wo have to decide whether wo will turn to tho left or tho right. Some great oppor tunity arises, the taking or ignoring ot which will make or mar the whole of our career. Ah Shakespeare says: "There Is a tide In the affairs of men Which, taken at Its flood, leads on to for tune; Omitted, nil th9 voyaeo of their life Is bound in shidows and In miseries." But every day and all day lltUe op portunities and chances are cropping up in our path, and though no big crisis may disturb this present hour. It Is almost cer tain that some llttlo incident will occur which we shall havo to meet with calm ness and good humoT or with vexation and Irritability. For every moment of our lives we are choosing deciding for the good or the evil, being selfish or unselfish; giving or taking; helping or hindering. Discontented people call this life a trial; really, It Is a series of little trials trials whi;h we aro bound to undergo In order to make us fit for the next life. The tiials nre, no doubt, sent to us for our good, but the decision of how wo aro going to use them rests with us. Our domestic affairs go wrong, tho cake burns In the oven; hero Is the crisis of tho moment. Do you decide to be cross or calm? , Your child needs correcting, but It Is easier to let her have her own way, bad us It Is for her. Are you going to bo lazy or firm over the matter? You get the chance of snapping at some A Tale Ro BY George Randolph Chester You know Chester of "Get-Rich-Quick Wal lingford" fame.
