WOMEN WHO WILL CHATTER
AT THE OPERA DREADED
'
Those Who Really Attend for the Music Driven to
Fury by These Unappreciative Mortals
,Who Disturb Every One
AMI ONB of those professed music
Ci. lovers ho crowd the Metropolitan
Opera Houso on such popular nights as
last night, for Instance, would bo highly
Incensed wero It considered a poso with
them. Grantod that there wero hundreds
and hundreds of those thero lost night
who really understood, but why la It In
evitable that a fow peoplo should mar
tho enjoyment of thoso around them by
talking unconcernedly throughout tho
overtures, when one moat desires alienee
In tho front of tho house?
Last night thero wero several women,
who wero certainly old enough to know
better and should havo been well-bred
enough also, whoso sibilant tones could
bo heard many feet away from their box.
To such as these tho opora ovldontly
meant closo application with their lorg
nettes to tho occupants of tho boxen, tho
sound of many voices and tho flashing of
many Jewels on tho tier after tho lights
go up. These things are charming In
themselves, but to tho real lover of
music thoro Is something moro.
Tho, ladles, like a few men who openly
acknowledge tho opera boron them, might
leave their seats during tho nets to have
a chat and a smoko, as do thoso self
same men.
I doubt whether theso womon aro any
more objectionable than tho ono who
knows it all, who carefully explains when
tha "My Heart at Thy Sweet Voice" is
due' and what tho denoucmont will bo, her
shrill tones echoing for rows around.
But every man will agreo with me, I
know, that tho worst bora of nil Is tho
girl ho has takon with him who iclll In
sist on talking into his ear during tho
performanco and to whom ho must strain
to bo pollto this once!

MY MARRIED LIFE
By ADELE GARRISON
WHATEVEll her other faults may be,
Lillian data Is a tower of strength In
an emorgency, I discovered this fact when
Katie, my maid of all work, uttered n
frightened Ilttlo cry at tho sight of Mr.
Lester coming through the door and then
stood, llko a statue of fear, gazing at him.
Lillian was standing at my side when
the Lester camo In. With a quick, un
observed whisper to me, "Get Mra. Lester
In your room quickly," sho moved swiftly
to KalloVMdo. Dicky said afterward that
tho muttered "Hushl Como with mo," with
which Lll propelled Katlo to the kitchen,
was regular thlrd-act-lo-tbe-rencuo stuff.
I could not see what sho was doing, how
over, for I was too busy trying to obey her
whispered Injunction.
It was a hard taRk, however, Of course
I had to wait until Dicky had Introduced
mo to both Mr. nnd Mrs. Loster. As I
murmured tho conventional things and
started to escort my guest to my room,
Harry Underwood barred tho way.
"Nay, nay, my child, you do not pass
me this way without a word or look that
I may cherish," ho said grandiloquently to
my guest
Mrs Lester dimpled and giggled.
"You awful man. I'm not going to talk
to you nt all tonight Frank says you aro
n, bad man for Ilttlo girls to know."
"Pleaso unsay them croo-et words," ho
burlesqued, nnd then turned to me, ns ho
saw mo trying to draw Mrs. Lester toward
my room
"Aha, mo proud beauty; you do not llko
to hoar mo mako pretty speeches to nnolher.
I shall humblo your prldo yet."
He bowod mockingly, and I reached my
own room with Mr3. Lester. As I crossed
tho threshold I drew a deep breath of relief.
Tho danger of on unpleasant scene was
over. Katlo was Bafo In tho kltchcn( where,
If I gauged Mrs. Umlerwood'n powers cor-rr-otly,
she would Boon bo reduced to san
ity, while my guest, all unsuspecting, na
I hoped, was removing her wrap3.
Of courso, I bad grasped tho significance
of Katle'n frightened cry. I remembered
tho night Bho first camn to work for me,
her terror nt sight of Dicky and her sud
den flight Wo had brought her back, and
Dicky had learned that tho roason sho was
In such fear of him was on account of
the money ho had glvon her with which
to pay a bill when sho waa maid of all work
In tho bachelor apartment which Dicky and
threo other nrtlsta shared. Sho had dis
appeared with tho money, nnd ho had notcr
seen her again until ho met her In our
apartment.
Tho memory of hor broken words of ex
planation of her Illght camo back to me.
"i'ou know when you left that morning,
Mccster Lestalre, bo was painting, too?
Well, Mcester Graham, I always good girl
In old country and here. I go to con
fession. I always keop good. Meester Les
talre, ho kiss mo, say bad tings to ma. I In
frighten mo. I afraid If I stny I no bo
good girl. So I run quecclt away. I never
dare camo back. Dot Meestcr Lestalre, ho
one bad man, ono devil."
Of course, "Lestalro" was Lester I I had
thought nothing of tho coincidence of
names until Katlo's cry had thrown a flash
light upon tho situation.
I looked at Mrs. Lester, who, fortunately,
had hoard and seen nothing. Sho waa a
pretty creature, blrdllko In her smallness
and daintiness, and a certain chirpy bright
ness. I Judged that hor montallty about
equaled tho caliber of a sparrow, hut 1
admitted nlso that the fact did not detract
from her attractiveness.
She was tho sort of woman to bo pro
tected, to be chorlshcd. Sho was loving,
innocent, holpless. And her husband had
amused himself by persecuting an Ignorant,
alien servant! I felt a tubIi of sympathy
for her. I remembored Dicky's comment
upon Katlo's revelation:
"So that was It! Well, that wnn Just
about what that pup would do. That was
ono reason I got out of our housekeeping
arrangements. Ho set too Bwlft n pneo
"for mo, and that was going some In those
days."
Poor Ilttlo Mrs. Lester! Life certainly
could not hold much for hor In tho future.
And then sho turned from tho mirror with
nn appealing little smile.
"I'm afraid I shall be very dull tonlghL
I am bo worried about leaving tho baby.
Sho's only six mouths old, you know, and
I havo had my mother with mo ever since
Bhe was born until two weeks ago, bo I havo
never left her with a maid before. This
girl wo havo appears very competent, says
sho Is used to babies, but I just can't help
being as nervous ns a cat."
"Are you still worrying about that baby?"
Mrs Underwood's loud -olco sounded be
hind us. "Now, look hero, Daisy, havo a
Ilttlo common sense. You have had that
maid over a year; sho has been with your
mother nnd you Blnce the baby waa born;
there's a telephone nt her elbow, and you
aro only flvo blocks away from home.
Wasn't tho child well when you left?"
"Sleeping Just llko a kitten," the proud
mother answered. "You JuBt ought to have
seen her, one little hand all cuddled up
against her face. I Just couldn't bear to
leavo her."
Over Lillian Gale's face swept a swift
spasm of pain. So quickly was It gone that
I would not hava notloed It had not my"
eyes happened to rest on her face when
Mrs. Lester spoke of her baby. Was there
a child In that hectlo past of ber? I de
cided thero must be.
"Why don't you telephone now and
satisfy yourself that tho baby Is all right,
and Instruct the maid to call you If she
Bees anything unusual about her?" I
queried,
"Tell her you are going to telephone
every Ilttlo while Then she will be sure
to keep on the Job," cynically suggested
Mrs. Underwood.
"Oh. that will be Just splendid," chirped
Mrs. Lester. Thank you bo much, Mrs.
Graham. Where Is the telephone?"
"Dicky will get the number for --
Bald Mrs, Underwood, ushering her into the
living room. I heard her shrill voice
"Oh, Dlcky-blrd, please get Mrs. Lester's
apartment for her. Sho wants to be sura
ihA hahv'n fill i-lht"
Then I heard a deeper voice. "For
heaven'a sake, Daisy, don't make a fool of
yourself. The bid's all right" That was
Mr. Lester's voice, of course. Neither the
tones of Dicky nor Harry Underwood bad
the disagreeable whining timbre of this
man's.
Lillian's retort made me smile, it -was bo
characteristic of her.
"Who unlocked tho door of your cage,
anyway? Get back In. and if you growl
again tonight there will be no supper for
you,"
As she spoke she hurried back to tho door
of my room, which I waa Just leaving-. She
made an almost Imperceptible gesture wltl!
her hand, and I obeyed the silent signal,
going back Into the room with her.
"I Bent her to tho telephone because I
wanted a chance to speak to you alone," she
Bald. "You'll have to settle Katie. She's
crying out there, says she doesn't want to
wait on table if 'Meester Lestalro is dere."
I don't know but it would be a good Idea
to send her to bed, say she has a toothache,
or anything else convenient. We can wait
on ourselves: it will be lots more JollyUnd
avoid any unpleasant possibilities, I
wouldn't want Daisy to suspect anything,
Frank's been seventeen different kinds of
swine In his life, but there's no use bother-.
Ing her -with it She'll find it out soon
enough, We all do."
("Then you know?" I asked.
''About Frank persecuting Katie when
she worked in the apartment? Of course.
I rather suspected It at tha time, but 1
didn't think he'd carry things far enough
ao tha girl would havo to run away for
fear of him. But Dicky told me all about
it the other day, after Katie came back.
Wasn't it a coincidence that she should
have applied to you for a position?"
"A coincidence, indeed," I replied me
chanically I felt the old pique rUlng In my heart
Was there anything about our affairs that
Dicky did not tell this woman?

Doctor La Hue explains tt:
"Wisely used, corporal punishment has Its
place. God evidently believes In It, ns wit

flicts on us. His chlldron. Whenever leg
islators pass a law prohibiting teachers
from using corporal punishment at school
they should follow It with another prevent
ing parents from administering Buch punish
ment at home. Neither law should bo
passed; but ono Is as logIc.il as the other,
and both are necessary If we wish really to
make the experiment of abolishing corporal
punishment.
BIRTH CONTROL AND ITS CONVERSE
"As for birth control, thero Is nothing
which the human race can control but
which It ought not to control. At present
tho passion of love Indiscriminately multi
plies tho race and tho passion of hato
blindly divides and destroys It Both these
passions must submit to reason. Wo want

La Ruo's opinion, necessarily Bacrlflco qual

"It depends on what ofse Bhe does," ho
Bald. "It 13 quite possible for a mother to
bear eight, or even ten, children of prime
quality. But sho should be supported sim

mother of eight or ton children most cer

why should any woman feel It her duty
to be so prolific? Thyslologlsts some at

equilibrium Is so upset by bearing a child
that wo cannot count on Its being restored
again In less than three years. The con

FATHER'S PART IN TRAINING
"What part ln tho training of tho child
should tho father take?" ho was asked.
"It most of us men would keep ourselves
free from whiskey, tobacco, Bwear words
and other Immoralities," he replied, "and
treat our wives as respectfully as we want
our sons to treat their mothers, the women
of the country would experience such a glow
of delighted surprise that they would hardly
ask for further co-operation. Then let the
father live with his children during a part
of his leisure at least, for the surest way
to get an education Is to live with some
