LUCRE&A BORFS TALK ON ARRANGEMENT OF THE COIFFURE-FASH
ABOUT THE MARRIED WOMAN

Why Should She Not Lend Her Efforts Toward
- ' Increasing: the Nest Egg? High Price of

APROPOS of married women holding

"Many women havo tho Idea that tho

THAT the present high cost of living
Is not without Its advantages Is proved
by this optimistic letter written by Mrs.

aentlmental young girl and a widow, fair, plump
and aenalble ,1 admire thorn both and feel
aure that either on would find my attention
acceptable. I am a phlegmatic perton, rontld

Inexperienced, klndhearted girl happy. Maybe
the would demajid of a huaband more exprea

altter thinks Bucn a girt wife might brlnir out
thoae qualtlea which maybe are lying dormant
In me I wish I know. Now, the widow has
had experience wtth a huaband, has probably
met aom dltappolntmenta. haa been found "too
heavy" when ah aat on her hutband'a lap:
haa eaten her breakfaat looking at the bark of
a newapaper, and haa learned that married Ufa

that th young girl would look only for love

and to the one I aelect or who accepta me. Al
though I admire the young girl very much. I
feel that the widow would make a more ault
able wife for a man of my dlapotltlon, and
happlnca would lie moro laatlng. If you or
your readera would take a little Intefeat In a

Street Car Etiquette
To the Fditor of Woman'a Paaa!
Dear Madam The other day on enterlns a car
a man offered ma a teat, whirr-1 accepted po
litely, when 1 noted an old gentleman standing
up near me. and Inttead of alttlng down 1 offered
him th seat, Th man who had offered me hie

It seems to me that young persons can
never show too much respect to older per
sons, and I think, my dear Bally, you did ex
actly the right thing. Tho young man
would have been far more polite to have
offered tha older one his seat before you
ever appeared on the sceno and surely could
not blame you Justly for doing a kind ns
well as polite thing, I am sure the old
man's appreciation was more valued than
many a younger man's smile-

MARRY A CHILD, JAMES
URGES, AS DIVORCE CURE
Lamplighter Very, Very Happy
With Girl Wife, Who Wed
at Fourteen
If you want to train a wlfo In the wny
that w'es should go, marry her when ho
Is very, very young.
This Is Jnmes Kgnazco's reclpo for mari
tal happlncea. Two years ngo James, who Is
twenty-five nnd was a lamplighter, "fell In
love" with Jutcnlle May de Olacomc. out
nlda of whoso home on Agate street there
waa n lamp to which he applied his torch
every night. Slay was then ItvcUc. It was
her custom to watch the ceremony. With
her straight llttlo noxo pressed nut of all
semblanco of Its classic shape nnd her xoft,
pink little mouth which It still tho mouth
of a child pressed hard against the win
dow pane May would watch for the arrival
of the lamplighter. It was this picture
with which James was smitten
"I marry your girl," he said to Father
de Glacomo. 1
"It Isn't done evert In Italy so speedily,"
the latter replied In thoso or similar words ;
"wait three years."
James waited one year. Once more
Father was consulted,
"I don't wait longer," said tho ardent
lamplighter, "I don't want old wife."
Uy that time May herself was Interested
and thero was a marriage with tulle and
rice nnd a carnation bouquet. The girl
bride was Just fourteen.
Now James Is a weaver and the youth
ful wife has a home of her own at 32S8
Memphis street. She Is not yet fifteen ond
Is probably one of the youngett and hap
piest wles In I'hlladelphla.
"Sure, wo nro all right and good and
happy," ho said emphatically. "May Is
a good little wife. She does all tho cooking
ond tho housework. I weave now In a mill
nnd work is good. In n little while In a
year or two when the girl " a glance at
tho child-wife ".b older I open a grocery
shop here. She can help with that then,
and we will malco monoy.
"My girl was young when I took her, but
I don't Illte tho American way, American
girls they wait too long to get husbands.
They are spoilt. A man can't do nothing
with them. They want thla and they want
that. They don't llko this nnd they don't
liko that. They are old maids even It they
fire married. Sometimes they run awny
with another man. They hard to manage"
May, small and serious, who would cer
tainly be more easily associated with a doll
house than with a home of her own, nodded
her head In approval.
LIFE looked very dark to me as I sat be
I fore the glowing gas grate In our living
room after Dicky had Indulged In his tem
per fit and gone out, presumably to Lillian
Oales "party " . ,
I contrasted the little leaping flames,
trying so hard to Imitate an honest wood
fire, with the heavy shadows upon my
married life. Mine was only an Imitation
happiness, I told myself bitterly.
Then I put myself through a course of
severe self-analysis. Was mine the fault
.., . n..h nf Metering had been crowded
i Into the first few weeks of our marriage?
If this wero the Index of our future, better,
fnr better, that Dicky and I should part
nt orco and ao our separate ways.
A wave of utter misery swept over me
at that thought Life without Dicky, evert
with his faults, would be unbearable. With
him there might bo misery, without him.
nothing but utter blankness, life devoid of
any meaning.
I remembered my old cynicism about
married happiness. I had not believed that
there could bo such a thing until Dicky
swept me off my feet with his love. Now
I asked myself If ever man nnd wife had
so much bitterness nnd quarreling packed
In such n short space of time as Dicky and
I had experienced this last week.
I know one solution to the problem, but
I could not bring myself to take It. Dicky
was a darling when not crossed. I only
had to study his overy whim, to subject
my will always to his, to Ignoro his out
bursts of petty temper when household
pffnlrs nnnoyed, and I would have peace.
Hut my selt-rcpect would not allow me
to tako that course. Katie's philosophy
came back to my mind.
"If you do all times vat dcy want, no
times nt you want, den dey tlnk you one
carpet, dey wipe feet on you."
No, for Dicky's good and my own I
could not blot out my Individuality. The
problem looked unsolvable from any angle.
Katie's voice startled me.
"Missis Graham, you not hear telephono
boll? It ring, ring free times. I answer
It for you?"
At nny other time Katie's costume would
hate provoked a smile from me. Her
hnlr was elaborately twisted up In crimp
ing pins, and she wore a gorgeous pink
flannelette negrgee of tho quality which
tho cheaper stores sell at a dollar. But I
was In no mood for smiling.
"I will answer It. Katie." I replied.
Thank you for reminding me."
That's nil right." Katlo still Btood by
my chair IMdently sho Intended to stay
while I talked,
"That will be all, Katie.- I said gently,
ns I took down the receiver, and Katlo
disconsolately went Into tho kitchen and
shut the door.
Lillian Gale's voice answered my hesitat
ing "Hello"
"Is that you. Mrs. Graham? Good Your
husband has Just told us how bully you
were to Insist upon his coming alone" what
on earth had Dicky been saying? "and I
told him I was going to call you up ond see
If wo couldn't persuade you to come oer
for Just a llttlo while. I'll end Harry or
Dicky with a taxi for you. Harry says ho
Is coming and we'll make Dick come home
early, regularly Bhoo him out If you feel
you can't stay Won't you please come?"
Her voice was eager, cordial, but I fan
cied I detected beneath Its apparent friend
liness n feminine triumph that Dicky had
como without me, and a feline curiosity to
know how I was taking his defection. Al
most nny bride of three weeks' standing,
I fancied, would show some resentment If
her husband left her alone and went to the
home of another woman, cen If the causo
of tho going wero a bitter quarrel.
Till: DIPLOMATIC KEPLY
A cold determination took possession of
me. This woman should learn nothing from
me of my real feelings. Dicky waB evidently
playing tho game. Fcertalnly would not lay
down my cards. My olco was as cordial as
her own as I answered her:
"Dear Mrs. Underwood, If I only dared
I would be with you now. Hut I have things
on hand this week that absolutely must be
attended to. If I do not rest after one of
these headaches of mine I am apt to have a
real lit of lllnens. I am going to bed now,
and pleaBo tell Dicky that there Is no reason
why ho shouldn't stay as late as he likes.
I am bo glad he could go, and you may be
sure. If you'll forgive me this time and In
vito mo again. I will surely come to you."
There was a noto of admiration in her
voice when she spoke again. Real or
feigned. It gratified my vanity.
"You're a dead rams little sport, any
way," she said, "and I appreciate your let
ting Dicky come. It wouldn't seem like one
of my parties without Dicky here. You can
wager anything you llko I'll Invito you
again, and make sure you come, too. Good
night."
Sho did not offer to have Dlckv come to
the telephone, for which I waa devoutly
grateful. I was not so dense, cither, that
I did not grasp her Parthian shot concern
ing Dicky's constant attendance upon her
whims. Unless I was greatly mistaken,
Lillian Gale would never glvo up my hus
band's friendship unless Dicky himself ban
Ished her from his life.

I knew there would be no sleep for me for
hours, but I longed for the darkness of my
bedroom. At least I could rest If I could
not sleep. .
I turned out the gas grate, pushed bacX
my chair, took from the table the money
which had been one causa of our quarrel
how I hated the ery touch of It I went to
my bedroom and put It away.
Kvery nerve In my body was throbbing.
I decided to take a warm bath In the hope
that the effects of It would enable me to
sleep after a while. I went to the bathroom
nnd turned on the hot water, then went
back to my room, undressed, and put on
my bathrobe and slippers. In the bath
room sgaln I tempered the nearly boiling
water with cold water, and when It waa at
the right temperature, slipped Into Its grate
ful warmth.
I thought that It would quiet me, but after
drying the moisture from my body and get
ting Into my nightgown I found myself
shivering with a nervous chill. I threw on
a heavy bathrobe, and without waiting to
plait my hair, my nightly custom. I hurried
Into bed. drawing tho covers tightly around
me.
After a while I grew warmer physically,
but I felt as If my heart were frozen. I did
not expect that Dicky would come home
before the early nornlng hours, and I lay
with eyes wide open wondering what I
should do when he did come.
I heard the clock strike tertl eleven I
twelve 1 A few moments after the stroke
of midnight I heard a queer fumbling at the
door of our living room, a muffled, sinister
sound. I sat upright In bed listening. What

On an Island
You've pluck'd a curlew, drawn a hen,
Waih'd the skirts of seven men,
You've stuff'd my pillow, stretch'd the sheet,
And flll'd the pan to wash your feet,
You've coop'd the pullets, wound the clock.
And rinsed the young men's drinking crock;
And now we'll dance to Jigs and reels,
Nall'd boots chafing girls' naked heels.
John M. Synge.
