JDwre Are Two Types of Women Those Who Wait For

MEN do delight In reeling oft trite ob.
aervatlons and -cynical sayings con
cerning that strange piece of rnentnl
mechanlam, Womnn. And yet. In a way,
men are more Inconsistent than women.

The soul of the Eter
jial Feminine Is, gener
ally speaking, exceed
ingly Illogical. No one
really can dispute that
fact. Bhe goes right after what she
wants, without any rhyme or reason for
tier actions, beyond the fact that she
Mindly wants the thing and as blindly
has got to get It, no matter nt what cost.
The love pirate Is a product of tho
times. So is the vampire woman. Uut
the woman who wants all men's hearts
has a reason for It. She wants them
because she has none of her ownl

were young and were beautiful act as If
they are young atl(j are beautiful."
was Informed recently by nnother
warned gentleman at least, he consid
ered himself learned, and no ono had the
heart to disillusion him that a man
should never believe a word that uny
woman says. "The little dears don't
mean to be untruthful." he observed
complacently, "but prevaricating has be
come a sort of second nature to them.
Their Imaginations, too, are so powerful
that fiction takes on alt the aspects of
. 'Hty In their eyes. Therefore, they
-Cnly have to state a thing, or mako a
i""v erroneous ODservatlon, to be
;w Kiusnea 01 us truth."
....
I bellem-tKat this is true In the case
of a certain type of woman, but not as a
general rule. She often does say one
thltt and mean another but she Is
quite unaware of her own motives in
the matter.
...
There are two types of women those
who wait for and wait on. and those
Who are waited for and on. Lots of
women seem born Into this world for
'BLOEDSIMG'-WHAT
DIDPAPENMEANBYIT?
Authorities Vary on Interpre
tation of Term Applied to
"Yankees" by Captain
Blocdslnnlg.
That word, written by" Captain von
rapen. the German military attache at
Washington, to his wlfo to describe cer
tain "Yankees,!' and subsequently brought
mi capuviiy wun tno now famous
SJumba letters. Is causing much concern
tUmy.

NobodWHeems to know, for opinions vary
so greatly that it really is doubtful what
the word really means. Jlost persons
hyly declined to be quoted on the sub
ject. "The word Is not uncomplimentary and
It doesn't mean 'Idiotic.' as It was trans
lated by the British," said a German.
"Ono uses It In referring to backward
children. It means you haven't got 'em
all. It means 'dull-witted.' It is not an
Insult at all."
A German savant at the University of
Pennsylvania thought differently.
"It's decidedly uncomplimentary." he
aid. "But It's not nearly as bad as some
of the things that have been said about
the Germans. Here, the dictionary tells
one. 'Weakmlndcd, driveling, silly, idiotic.'
Idiotic' Is the strongest term and 'silly'
the mildest,
"It's much ado about nothing to find
out what It means. Captain von Pnpen
was only writing to his wife, but nt that
It was extremely bloedsinnlg of him to do
It. And It'd be bloedsinnlg on my part
If I'd allow you to use my name."

The Lightning Bug
All HB, but I am sleepy," sighed a
Xjl. little lightning bug who had been
Working the whole evening long. "I light
jny lamp; I fly over the garden; back
and forth over the flowers do I shed my
glow, and never a minute for rest do I
have."
He hesitated a second on a tall Illy

his body. "But I suppose that Is what

the sole purpose of serving others. And
such generally cot the credit for being
most untrclflsh. 'lie that as It may, I
think that weakness of character nnd a
failure In proper self-assertion llo at the
root of tho matter more than disinter
ested love of ministering to the needs of
mankind. The woman who perpetually
sinks her own personality, nnd allows
herself to be Imposed upon by all and
sundry, I essentially weak.
Thcro Is nn old Scottish proverb which
tells us that It Is the willing horse that
aye gets the load. Uut why should
womnn become a beast of burden nnd
allow herself to be foolishly nnd un
necessarily Imposed upon?
...
Another type of woman Is ahe who
ntnays Is waited on by a circle of
friends, and who will do nothing for
herself If sho can possibly avoid It, or
get some one else to perform the task,
Sho Is a moral shirker, and life Is re
garded by her as n burden.
...
The worst of peoplo whose life Is a
burden Is that they alwnys make some
one elso carry tho burden and generally
a lapdog, and parcels, and a bag or two
along with It.
...
I onco heard of a very good prescrip
tion for the curing of male homage nnd
adulation, once that homage nnd adula
tion had becomo obnoxious and devel
oped Into something unwelcome nnd no
longer ncccptable. The young woman
who was the object of these attentions
devised a plan for their permanent rc
movnl. She Invited her unloved Homeo to ac
company her on n shopping expedition,
and forced htm to carry all the parcels.
Not only did she hang him with pack
ages tin he looked like
a human . Chrlstmns
tree, but she kept him
waiting outside half a
dozen different stores
until he grew so weary
thnt his love began pei-
cepuniy to fade.
...
This strenuous treat-1
ment the all-wise dam
sel kept up for four
days. On the morning
of the fifth, when she
telephoned him, she, was told thnt he had
gono out and she hasn't heard from him
since.

Even the strongest passion, then, can
be successfully cured by tho wiles of

"you don't know any more about It

This mm become a famous saying, but
It will not be inconsistent, for there Is
nn nlllgator In Darby and It arrived in a
most peculiar manner. The 'gator came
to life In a candy Jar In the window of
Guss Pappus' store on Mnln stieet. and
It Is doing nicely. The egg from which
it made Its debut was put In the Jar 28
days ago nnd the shell finally broke, as

branches of tho Municipal Court here

the Bureau of Municipal Research to de
vise a sybtein for the mechanical tabula

at Moaerataaitceg
NOW 1 the time of year
when the fashionable
maiden makes her plans for
the winter campaign. How
successful this planning Is
depends in a great measure
upon the careful planning ot
her wardrobe, for whatever
women may chooseAo say to
the contrary, they dress to
pleaso men. They may have
an Innate love for beautiful
thing s nnd who of us
hasn't? But underlying this
In almost every case is tho
not Impossible "he" whose
frown or smile makes the
costume possible,
i A fastidious woman
wouldn't havo much trouble
In selecting an evening coat
for herself this season.
Everything is elaborately
trimmed tassels, beading,
furs of every Imaginable de
scription, even laces made
of metalllo tissue are In seen
In the shops. Evening wraps
at any figure are possible,
from the very exclusive
models with wide bands of
Russian sable to simple lit
tle white fox-trimmed panne
models for the school miss.
Russian lines and colorings
are noticeable on the fash
ionable cloaks. The peculiar
shade of green which made
Its appearance last season
Is again popular in pannes,
plush and velour. Black
velvet, with white fox, Is
another most effective com
bination, and Is being worn
by the younger generation
to very good effect this sea
son. Today's fashion picture
shows a neat and simple
evening cape for Informal
occasions and for school
dances. It Is suitable for the
young miss, being nlmost too
plain for evening wear by an
older person. Rose-colored
panne velvet Is the material
used, and the cloak has no
trimming but collar and
cuffs of skunk fur. A loose
tuck of the velvet breaks the
plainness nt the hips.
Stay Young
When one begins to grow
old, at least In years, pleas
ant and cheering thoughts,
which are in themselves the
best of medicine, must re
place gloomy, hopeless ways
of thinking. Every Interest
that departs must be re
placed by another so if
there is nobody to love try
gardening, n course of In
structive reading, charity
work. Anything that takes
jou out of yourself, as the
saying Is. Is rejuvenating.
Keep young Inside, for It is
the slump of tho spirit that
brings the first marks of
age.
GIRL
'gator measured 12 Inches when it first
appeared nnd nas growing rapidly. As
some vauilans grow to n length of three
or four yards when they're only two
years old. It Is said, it Is only reasonable
that this one would extend Itself rapidly.
It miy be necessary to call a meeting of
the Borough Council to decide who owns
the teptile. The egg from which it burst
forth wns laid by a veteran alligator,
which was a part of Finnegan's Circus.
Tho circus has been In "hock" In a liv
ery ftable on account of financial diffi
culties. But it Is possible now that
Finnesnn, who has n habit of being "up
agin and down ncln," may ask a substan
tial sum for the 'gator, and therefore get
his combination out of the livery stable.
On tho other hand, Policeman Josh Heaps,
who conceived the idea of hatching out
the alligator, wants to go "fifty-fifty" on
exhibiting the 'gator. There will have
to be some deep thinking in Darby and
It will havo to be dene quickly.
Meanwhile the alligator continues to eat
and Gus Pappas Is paying Its board.
It looks as though some Darby lawyer
will hove lots of work. -

low In Blackwood, N. J. .
Mr. Munro last evening delivered be
fore a crowded house at Broad street and
Columbia avenuo a lecture entitled "The
City ot Happiness is In the State of
Mind."
Fourteen years ago the Munros moved
to 1737 North 5th street from Frankford.
The new section was the worst word In
the city for Infant mortality. It grieved
the heart of Mrs. Munro.. She started to
do things to alleviate the misery of moth
ers nnd little ones. She soon established
a Neighborhood House, where she taught
mothers how to caro for their babies.
She also established a baby clinic In the
old Cohockslnk School. Soon the neigh
borhood started to call her "Mother."
Then, with her husband's- credit back of
her, she started a profitless store, whero
the poor of the section could purchase
things at cost and many times below
cost to the detriment of her husband's
purse.
After tho good things have been eaten
and spoken tonight the table and chairs
will bo set aside and "Mother" Munro
nnd her husband will dance for It was
at a dance they first met somewhere
around Perth. In bonny Scotland, where
tho grass Is beautifully green.
