UBIQUITOUS GIRL GUSHER
SUBJECT OF M'LISS'S COMMENT
, She Throws Her Superlatives Around With Care
less Indiscriminateness and Has No
Opinions Worth Hearing
THERE are many speoies of gtrl from
which wo would llko to bo delivered,"
aid the man who thinks he knows wom
en, "but those that head the list aro the
rusher.
"They aro the girls who exhaust all
. the superlatives In tho language In the
eourse of a half-hour's conversation.
lSvery play that they see, every book
, that they read, Is tho "most wonderful"
a book or play. They are tho kind who
wouldn't know a wonderful book or play
, If they met one, but you couldn't con
vince them of that fact.
"Every baby that they meet, too, Is
rushed over. It may be In reality the
ugliest tittle mutt that was over born
, .Into the world, yet to the gushers It Is
the "sweetest little tooteto-wootslo ever."
X often wonder what would happen If
the mother of the little tootsle would In
vite the gusher to mind It for a day or
two."
Ho rrumped away, leaving me to re
flect on his words and on the wild gush
ers I have known.
They have been many. Some have
been pretty and some have been Intel
lectual and some have been both, but
sot many of them were blessed with a
' rai and lasting popularity.
After all, the most abiding, the most
' lovable attribute that any one can pos-
aesfl Is sincerity. It Is that quality which
the gusher lacks. Sincerity cannot be
hidden under a bushel any more than in-
' sincerity can. X,lke a beacon, It shines
forth from & man's every word and act.
The sincere woman can summon a hun
dred frlonds to her side In time of trou
ble: the gusher has nothing but her su
perlatives. I often wonder what the gusher does
when she really wants to express a genu-
. tna delight or horror. The hyperbole of
her daily conversation has left her help
less. Every day she meets situations

WAR IN GOATVILLE
By Farmer Smith
It took Billy Bumpus exactly two hours
and a half to get the flypaper off Missus
Goat.
While he waa doing this various pieces
of paper were walking around Goarvtlle,
each piece of paper attached to a goat.
Biuy Bumpus had given some flypaper
to friends of his to put on the outskirts of
aoatvlUa. but Instead of doing this they
had put It around Billy's house, so every
cn who came anywhere near the house was
stuck up with flypaper.

that are the "most terrifying in the
world" and tho "most wonderful."
Should a. real crisis overtake her she
would bo forced to console herself with
a solemn, Inadequate silence punish
ment enough, perhaps, for years of gush
ing. But few persons are born gushers.
They seem to acquire the habit; to de
liberately cultivate It. It Is their Idea
of enthusiasm and vivacity. They must
be Interested, or seem so at least.
It Is a trait found almost exclusively
among women. I don't bellevo I have
met more than two mate gushers In my
life. They were social climbers endeav
oring to gush themselves Into some
sacred Inner circle. The last I heard of
them they were still on tho outsldo look
ing In.
Girl gushers seldom have any real en
thusiasms; henco they have no charm.
The fancy of the unwary man may be
caught and flattered for the nonce by one
of these psoudo vivacious creatures with
her set smile and her extravagant ad
jectives. But the gushing habit, like the
waters of a swollen stream, cannot be
controlled. The gusher gushes over
everybody and therefore no one appre
ciates It.
Many women, however, misconstrue
sincerity for an unflattering frankness
that searches out the weak points of
all who como within Its radius, blight
ing them with loud-mouthed criticism.
Slnccro remarks are interpreted as sour
remarks. In righteous tones, this type
will tell you that It Is nothing If not
straight from the shoulder; that It says
exactly what It thinks. What It says,
Incidentally, Is a sad commentary on
what It thinks. This is the ono species
of womankind that I know of which Is
worso than the gusher the sour-minded
carp who tries to pass as sincere.

THE blow seemed never to Jar blrn the
least
The hope swung again, and there stood
Billy Byrne like a huge bronze statue, tak
ing blow after blow that would have put
an ordinary man down for the count
The fans saw and appreciated the spec
tacular bravado of the act and they went
wild. Cheer on cheer rose, hoarse and
deafening, to the rafters. ...
The white hope lost nis sen-ronvrDi mm
what little remained of his short temper,
and deliberately struck Billy a foul blow.
But before the referee could Interfere, the
mucker swung Just such another blow as he
had missed and fallen with In the second
round. . , , t.
This time he did not miss; his mighty
fist caught the "coming champion" on the
point of tho chin, lifted him off his feet
and landed him half-way through the rope
There he lay, while the referee tolled off
the count of ten, nnd the fickle crowd
cheered and screamed In a delirium of Joy.
Despite tho law. the decision was plain.
Cassldy crawled through the ropes nnd
threw his arms around Billy.
"I knew youse could do It kid !" he
howled. "You're as good as made now, an'
you're de next champ, or I never seen
one!"
The following morning the sporting
sheets hailed "Sailor" Byrne as the great
est white hope of them all. Flashllgnts 01
him filled a quarter of a page.
There were Interviews with him. Inter
views with the man he had defeated. In
terviews with Cassldy. Interviews with
tho referee. Interview, with everybody;
and all were agreed that he wai the most
likely heavy since Jeffries. Corbett admit
ted that while In his prime he could doubt
less have bested the new wonder, he would
have found him a tough customer.
Every one said that Byrne's future was
assured. There wai not a man In sight
who could touch him. and none who had
seen him fight the n'ght before but would
have staked his last dollar on him In a
mill with the black champion.
Cassldy wired a chaSnee to the negro's
manager, and received an answer that was
most faorable. The terms were, as usual,
rather one-sided, but Cassldy accepted
them, and it seemed before noon that a fight
was assured.
Billy was more nearly happy again than
he had been since the day he had renounced
Barbara Harding to the man he thought she
loved. He read and reread the accounts In
the papers, and then, searching for more
references to himself off the sporting page,
ho ran upon the very name that had been
constantly In his thoughts for all theso
months Harding !
Ferststent rumor has It that the enrare
roent of the beautiful Mis Hardlnr to Wil
liam J. ilallory has twn broken. Miss
Hardlr.r could not be seen at her father's
home up to a late hour last nliht. Mr.
Mallorv refused to dlscuo the matter, but
nouia not ueny ir.e rumor
He sat with his eyes bent upon the floor,
and his mind was thousands of miles away
across the broad raclflc, upon a little Island
In the midst of a turbulent stream.
And far up-town, another sat with the
same paper In her hand. Barbara Harding
was glancing through the sporting sheet
In search of the scores of yesterday's
women's golf tournament And as she
searched her eyes became suddenly riveted
upon the picture of a giant man, and sho
forgot about tournaments and low scores,-
Hastily she searched tho heads and text
until she came upon tho name "Sailor"

Yes, It must be he! Greedily she read
and reread ail that had been written about
him. Tes, she, Barbara Harding, scion of

"They've" found a name for It at last;
It's the Henry II collar. You've been look
ing at It since the earliest spring openings;
It made Its Initial bow on the Parisian
gowns brought over for this occasion. It
was called the French collar and various
other names, but you usually know what
they mean because It Is so different from
other kinds of collars.
I'll attempt to descrlbo the collar I mean,
although it's as hard to picture In words as
it Is to avoid It on the smart dresses. It
goes straight across the neck in a horizontal
line, aa if the head was just stuck through
an opening in the top of the dress. It may
be finished off with a ruche or a white
batiste collar with four points, or it may
have a band of Chinese embroidery across
it But they call It the Henry II collar.
A neck fixing of this type Is more or less
exacting. It calls for sloping shoulders and
a not too long throat. No other type can
carry It with the proper amount of style
distinction that this creation merits. It is
smart but trying!
Dear Madam Do you think I can mak a
sports coat of Slav silk? How shall I make It.
and what kind of trlmmlnr should I put on It)
My material Is yellow. 1 have dark hair and
dark ee and am tall and slender. Do you
think this color will become met a. Y, R.
I suppose you mean to make the coat at
home. It Is easy to do. The work must be
carefully finished inside, because you have
no lining on a coat of this sort Choose
a loose, raglan-shouldered model, with shir
ring at the back, and a loose sash for a
belt Trim with white or dark-brown mara
bou. Have a wide sailor collar, edged with
a band of the fur across the back.
Dear Madam Can tou tell me Is there Is any
pedal way to wash smocklnct I have a coupl
of mock that ar trimmed with this work at
th front and back. Every time they are laun
dered they look aa If all the work Is preased
down Bat; It doea not look like smocklnr at all.
Any help you can xlv me In this metier will
bo appreciated. JOSIE.
The reason your smocking looks flat is
probably because It was ironed on the right
side of the material. This Is wrong. Smock
ing should be Ironed on the wrong side of
the goods. If you notice, the smocking
forms pleats on the wrong side. These
should be Ironed Oat putting each pleat
down separately, one overlapping the other.
The right side will take care of Itself.
Dear Madam la ther anrthlnr I can us to

way. Do you think Beah pink stocklnxa will
look all rlxht with wtolte buckskin shoes?
MRS. H. K. F,
Once the stockings have turned, you can
not change the color unless you dye them.
Use crepe paper or red-Ink solution, and be
sure to test It by dropping In a bit of stock
ing before you use it Flesh pink may be
worn with white buck shoes.
To keep your stockings white, wash them
In lukewarm water with good white soap
and hang In the shade to dry. Do not iron.
Watercress Butter
Here's the proper way to make It:
Cream a pound of fresh butter and have
a bowl of finely chopped, clean cress on
band to mix with the butter. Season with
salt paprika and lemon juice. Spread
over white or entire wheat bread, add cress
leaves and serve.
Ironing Hint
When It is necessary to iron a rough-dry
garment at once, dampen It roll tightly and
wrap In a cloth, then In paper, and put It
In the oven while the Irons are heating.
Evaporation will cause It to be thoroughly
damp In a very few minutes, but do not have
the oven too hot

PrAehalf-hour later a messenger hoy found
Sailor Byrne the center of d'r'n
throng In Professor Cassldy's tnlrd;"fn0'
gjwnaslum. With worshiping eyes taking
in his new hero from head to foot the youth
handed Byrne a note.
He stood staring at the heavyweight un
til he had perused It
"Any answer?" he asked.
Wo answer. k!d." replied Byrne, "that I
can't take myself." and he tossed a dollar
to the awestruck boy.
An hour later Billy Byrne was ascending
the broad, white steps that lead to the en
trance of Anthony Harding's New York
house. The sen-ant who nnswered his ring
eyed him suspiciously, for Billy Byrne w-as
still dressed llko a teamster on holiday. He
had no card.
The servant left hrm standing In tho hall
way and started to ascend the great stair
case : but half-way up he met Miss Harding
coming down.
".Vever mind. Smith," she said. "I am
expecting Mr. Byrne"; and then, seeing that
the fellow had not seated her visitor, she
added: "He Is a very dear friend."
Smith faded quickly from the scene.
"Billy!" cried the girl, rushing toward
him with outstretched hands. "Oh, Billy,
we thought that you were dead I How long
have you been here? Why haven't you been

Byrne hesitated.

be different so I kept away."
"Billy! How could you?"
"You don't mean," he faltered, "that
that everything Is tho came now as It was
on the Island Barbara?"
She looked up at him wistfully.
A great, mnd hope had been surging
through his being since he had read of
the broken engagement nnd received the
girl's note. And now, In her eyes, In her
whole attitude, he could read, as unmis
takably as though her lips had formed tho
words that he had not hoped In vain.
But some strange Influence hnd seemed
suddenly to come to work upon him. Even
In the brief moment of his entrance Into
the magnificence of Anthony Harding's
home, ho had felt a strange llttlo stricture
of the throat a choking, half-suffocating
sensation.
The attitude of the servant, the splendor
of tho furnishings, the stateltness of the
great hall and the apartments opening upon
it all had whispered to him that he did not
"belong."
And now Barbara, clothed In somo won
drous foreign creation, belled by her very
appearance the expression that suffused her
eyes.
N'o. Billy Byrne, the mucker, did not
belong there. Xor ever could he belong,
any more than Barbara Harding ever could
have "belonged" on Grand avenue. And
Billy Byrne knew It now.
His heart went cold. The bottom seemed
suddenly to have dropped out of his life.
Bravely he had battled to forget this
wonderful creature, or, rather his hopeless
love for her her he could never forget.
But the note from her and the sight of her
had but served to rekindle tho old fir a
within his breast
He thought quickly. His own life or
hnpplness did not count Xothlng counted
now but Barbara. He had seen the love
light in her eyes. He thanked God that he
had realized what it would have meant
before he let her see that he had seen it.
"I've been back several months." he said
presently; In answer to her question; "but
I got sense enough to stay where I belong.
Gee ! Wouldn't I look great comln' up here
buttln' In wit' youse bunch of hlghlifes?"
