ORY CATASTROPHES-THE
SHORT
Too Many Girls Make the Mistake of Imagining Themselves In
Love" With a Man When Their Real
.Feeling is Friendship.
By ELLEN AbAlIi
TUB younff woman who Is sulricientlv
stronff-mtnded to break oft her en
gagement when aha discovers that heart
cannot truthfully so with hand Is often
an object of mueh censure and a Rood
deal of unjust criticism.
"What n flirt that Blrl 1st" the 'rnr
moralists will exclaim, without In the
least Investigating; the whys and where
fores of the case.
And as for the unfortunate damsel's girl
friends, they will swoop around her like
so many curious little birds of prey, seek.
1n for gossip to retail to me wnoio
neighborhood.
"My dear, we hear you've broken oft
your engagement with Harry!" they ex
claim In chdrus, "can It be true?"
And she replies that It Is.
But Isn't he really nice?"
"res," says tho Mile fitrt uncomfort
ably "Then why don't you marry hlm?"
comes the chorus with a terrible nccent
on tho "why."
to mat sno can
only reply that she
really doesn't quite
know, only o n 1 y
well, thcro was
"something!"
Her friends all de
cided that they
never knew such a
heartless creature.
Why Bhe should
break oft an en
gagement with a man she acknowledges
Is a really excellent creatute Is beyond
their comprehension.
But these Inqulsltlvo friends really don't
understand the circumstances of the case.
When a girl breaks oft her engagement
thero Is generally somo quite all-sulllclng
reason for tho doing of tho same, dcsplto
tho remarks of tho critic.
The mistake docs not llo In tho ending
of tho engagement, but In tho fact that It
has ever existed at all. Hero again the
critics get busy. "She had no right to
accept tho man If sho didn't Intend to
marry him," they dcclaro righteously.
A CHARACTERISTICALLY FRENCH
FROCK OF UNIQUE DESIGN
THE lato s u m m 0 r
styles for children's
clothes are 1 n d o o d
charming enough t o
tempt the most econom
ical parent. I o v e 1 y
plaid and dotted cham
brays of all descriptions
aro Been, simply trim
med In many cases with
bands of colored ma
terial and Irish buttons.
Tho vogue for tho nor
mal walsttlno has re
turned, too. The high
Russian line, which was
almost Indispensable on
a child's dress, has
been replaced by loose
sash effects, or narrow
stitched belts, like
those worn by grown
ups, Cretonne and chintz
patterns are a dlslnctly
new note In the late
styles. Tiny smocks,
hand made of linen In
pals pastel shades aro
seen In many of the
largo Importers' shops:
A pretty French frock
designed by Fayrlland,
of Paris, Is shown to
day. It has a quaint
ness about? It which Is
sure to be accentuated
by the American young
ster. The lines of this frock
are plain to a degree.
It hangs loosely down
from the shoulders with
a short, full skirt The
material Is a very fine
French serge, with col
lar and cuffs of pique.
The tiny vest In the
front Is also mado of
pique, with a typically
French bowknot o f
moire at the throat. No
one but a French de
signer could use black
successfully on a, child's
garment.
Notice the stitched
yoke on the front of tho
dress. The shoulders
are shirred at the top to
give the necessary full
ness to the rest of the
gown. The little hat
worn with this frock lo
roads of butter-colored
straw, with a chlo cock
ado at one side In Bel
Clan colorings.
To Clean Rag Rugs
The Colonial, the rag
rug, Is becoming' more
popular each year for
summer use. One ob
jection to them la that
they soil easily, espe
cially in the light
shades. Cleansing can
be done by tacking the
rug to a porch floor,
scrubbing It with a
brush and a soap solu
tion and hanging- It on
the line to dry.
THE WISE WOMAN GUARDS HER SKIN
AGAINST DUST THESE WARM DAYS
A CLEAN', fine skin Is the right and
privilege of every woman, and when,
In an otherwise healthy skin, a black,
icek appears on the face. It Is caused by
the torpidity of the skin In that particular
spot. It la merely a blemish which can
easily be removed, and when squeezed
out resembles a little white worm, oft,en
called blackhead or fleshwonn, although
It Is no worm at all.
When, hqwever, the points, or black
heads, have once been permitted to form
End. are numerous on the skin, they are
Tiry liable to degenerate Into ugly-look,
trig white pimples, amounting to a dls-

Blackheads are simply the result of
srelesauess. bad digestion and defective

- LIVED ENGAGEMENT
These selfsame critics entirely overlook
the fact that those catastrophesand en
Basements without lovo on both sides are
catastrophes happen through tho
thoughtless manner in which some men
propose. Mot for a single moment do
they give the girl nh Inkling of what their
Intentions reully nro until tho fatal mo
ment when they spring the great question
on her lo find her totally Unprepared.
Instead of working gradually toward
the desired end, theso absurd lovers ex
pect to get there at a single bound. And
this Is precisely what causes tho ship
wreck of many nn engagement. The girl
has not tho slightest Idea thnt "Harry"
Is going to propose to her, although sho
reully greatly admires nnd likes him as a
rriena. nut Hnrry
keeps tho secret of
his lovofor her so
close that she never
suspected It, nnd
when he confesses It
to her she Is utterly
taken nback.
Sho likes him so
much as a friend I
Ho would be so
heartbroken If she
refused him I She
might grow to lovo him as n lover who
knows? What reason has Bho for sus
pecting otherwlso? Ho Is such n won
derful friend. Her peoplo would bo so
pleased.
And so she accepted him, only to
rcatlxo later that sho has mado a mistake.
If nmorous swains would only see to It
that tho lady of their heart has nn inkling
of their Intention to propose, nnd could
consider tho situation well beforchnnd.
what an Immense nmount of subsequent
troublo and hcart-burnlnga could be
saved I Thoy run less risk of being re
fused outright, or worso still, launching
Into an unsatisfactory engagement which
assuredly will bo broken by the dubious
damsel In tho end.
Wlillo girls havo not tho privilege of
proposing, they should nt least bo allowed
tho privilege of deciding whether they
shall bo proposed to or not.

TOMMY IS
OOR little Tommy Tlttle-mousel After
JThe found that his best friend. Billy
Robin lived on spiders and that Billy and
the wonderfpl Mr. Spider could never be
friends, he was hopelessly puzzled. "How
am I to know about this outdoor world!",
he asked Mrs. Tommy, "I don't know
who can be friends and who are
enemies!"
"If I were you," suggested Mrs. Tommy,
"I would go right over to Mr. Spider now
and ask him to explain himself. He can
tell you a great deal."
"That surely Is a good idea," eald
Tommy thoughtfully, and, bidding his lit
tle mate good-by, he started oyer toward
the hedge.
Carefully he crept nearer and nearer
till at last the hedge was reached in
safety. "I surely am getting braver,"
Tommy said to himself: "I didn't mind
that journey one bit," and then he looked
tor Mr. Spider.
At first he saw no one, but he looked
and be called, "Mr. .Spider I Mr. Spider!
I am all alone this morning! Won't you
come and talk to me?" And then, in a
minute, he saw Mr. Spider stlfklng Ave
ot his eyea out from behind a leaf.
"I'm all alone," he repeated. Please
come and talk to me."
"Of course. If you are really alone,"
began Mr. Spider, and Tommy assured
him that be was. So Mr. Spider crept
out and sat on the bqttom of the web
he had made. Though he appeared to
give his whole attention to Tommy, he
really kept four ot bis eyes hard at work
watching tor danger it does not pay to
take chances!
"Well, good morning. Tommy," he said
politely, "may you never have such a

SUFFRAGISTS DIVIDED
IN VIEWS ON SHAW CAR
Followers Say They Will Buy
Auto Seized for Debt Others
Condemn Stand'.
There promise to bo some Interesting
legal complications surrounding the jollow
automobile of Dr. Anna Howard Shaw,
national president of tho Woman Suffrage
Association. Tho constable who seized tho
car from tho suffrnglst's homo In Moylah
to satisfy a delinquent State tax of (126
declared he would advortlso Its public salo
today, nnd followers of Doctor Shaw as
sert that they will buy It.
But some of tho suffragists, It Is said,,
will not support Doctor Shaw In tho
stand she has taken. A young woman
at tho party headquarters In Media to
day said that sho anil other members
could see no reason for tho doctor's at
titude. Meanwhile, a statement comes from
Doctor Shaw herself. Sho is away on
business at Plttsfleld, Mass. Sho said,
"Tho salo will probably tako place, and
tho little yellow motor known ns Eastern
Victory will become famous when history
of the tyrannical and Inconsistent atti
tude of this so-called republic shall bo
written."
Doctor Shaw haB placed the case In tho
hands of three attorneys, and develop
ments are expected when the little auto
will bo put up for sale. It Is contended
by tho luffraglst that she has violated no
law. When requested to make out her
statement of personal property In 1913,
Doctor Shaw Bald that the document
given her explained that the asscsor could
make out such a list himself. He did so,
sho Bald, but took no pains whatever to
ascertain tho amount of her propert.
The suffragist haa witnesses, she said, to
testify to tho fact that instead of comply
ing with this reasonable provision of tho
law, the asscsor boasted that he would
mako tho assessment so largo that It
would compel Doctor Bhaw to make a
statement. Ho assessed her taxable per
sonal property at $30,000.
Tho tax bill Is not tho only ono that
will bo charged against tho automobile
If It Is sold by tho constable. Today Con
stable Mathuea received for collection a
bill for teaching Miss Lucy Anthony,
Doctor Shaw's secretary, to run the- car.
iiua was placed In his hands by W. A.
Stlllwell, salesman of the Johnson Motor
Car Company, and amounts to J3.68. It
Is Itemized as four hours' teaching at
U an hour and 18 cents carfare to Moy
lar. from Philadelphia.
Tonight, It the bill bo not paid In the
meantime, hand bills advertising the car
for sole will be posted.l One of these
will be placed on Doctor Shaw's property,
another at suffrage headquarters In Me
dia, one at Flerson's garage, where the
car is housed, and four others wll bo
posted in various parts of the county.
The salo is scheduled for next Tuesday
and will bo held at Plerson's garage, if
It Is not stayed.
Action will bo taken today to restrain
tho constable from making the sale.

MARRIAGE IMPROVED HER WORK SAYS
ARTIST OF INTERNATIONAL NOTE
As Miss Elsa Koenig She Studied Abroad and Won Salon Prize
With a Canvas She Married a University Officer.
Says Woman of Talent Is a Woman First.
TO ALL of those arguments which treat
of a woman's, inability to be a success
ful wife and rnother and to pursue a
career at ono nnd the same lime, Mrs.
Elsa Koenig NItzsche Is nn eloquent con
tladlctton. For the last 13 years she has been en-
gnged In painting portraits, most of them
of prominent Phlladclphians. It was
when she" was most Industriously engaged
in painting from sunUp until sundown
that Dan Cupid decided It was time to
step In and play his highest trump. He
.11,1 ami r-.ia.-i ifnonlir became Mrs.
George NItzsche, wlfo of the recorder of
tho University of Pennsylvania.
Desplto tho fact that sho now has an
adorable little girl whose "sunshiny"
hair has been responsible for her nick
name "Goldy," nnd that she personally
supervises the running of her attractive
homo at 411 West Carpenter street, Ger
mantown, Mrs. NItzsche Is still painting
portraits, nnd her maturer work fulfils
moro and more the promise of her early
productions.
"It Is perfectly possible. In my opinion,
for n woman to follow her career after
sho Is married." this very feminine nnd
nttrnetivo nrtlst said, "although I am
willing to grant that If she believes her
first duty to bo to her home, husband
nnd children, ns she should believe, sho
will not bo able to accomplish as mucii
work as sho could beforo thero were any
domcstlo ties.
"Tho character of her work, however,"
sho continued, "should bo Improved, bo
causo through marriage a woman's view
point is broadened and her cxpcricnco of
life nmpllfled. Beforo I was married I
maintained a studio In town nnd I
worked from morning until night without
stopping.
"I still work hard, but not Incessantly,
and I now have my studio In my home
that Is tho only difference. If, however,
my sitter Is too busy to como out horc, I
rent a studio In town and work there.
Ho, you see, marrlago after nil need not
wreck a woman's career, though, I will
grant that a woman Is always a woman
first, and an artist or n writer or a sculp
tor nftcrward. Wo aro built that way."
At present Mrs. Nltzscho Is cngnged In
painting tho portrait of Dr. Edward Kirk,
dean of tho Evans Dentnl Institute of the
University of Pennsylvania. When It
Is completed It will be hung In tho build
ing of tho Institute, at 40th and Spruco
Streets.
Recently sho completed tho portrait of
Dr. Arthur Hopcwcll-Smlth, of the samo
Institution, which ho has taken to Eng

Have you ever heard, In the lonesome
night.
The call ot the wind-swept sea.
Mighty and strong the great sea song
Ever pitched In a minor key?
Have you ever stood on a barren plain
When, the red sun sank below
Tho curvo of the world nnd 'the night
was hurled
Like a pall o'er the afterglow?
Have you eyer seen a single leaf
Alone In the wintry blast,
Like an old man, gray, outliving his day.
With his heart in the wistful past?
Then surely you know of the sombre
things
Which God in his wisdom sends
To turn men'B thoughts into kindlier
vein,
When the day's mad labor ends.
