THE VAST DIFFERENCE BETWEEN
BEING "FUSSY" AND "FASTIDIOUS"
So-Called Particular Girls Who Are Totally Un
mindful of the Little Things That Count.
The Gnawing of Loneliness
MY MARRIED LIFE
Hy ADELE GARRISON
T"0 YOU know glrli who prido tlionv
J-'selves on being fastidious when In
reality they nre only "fusay"7 It Always
makes mo tired to hear some people
claim with pride that they nre "no par
titular" about this or that, when most of
their discerning frlonds know thoy are
really dreadfully cnroless and nllpshod
In many Ways and only fussy In "spots."
Thoy always lemlnd ma of the Rood
peoplo In somo parts of Holland whoso
womon folk tnko such scrupulous caie
of their properties thnt they srrub the
very sldownlks on their hands nnd knees,
yet who sleep nil huddlod together In
tiny, airtight compartments.
Or of tho farmers up-State, bo amus
ingly exploited by Mrs. Flske tn "ErBt-
wlillo Susan," who would not for worlds
bo guilty of such n, faux pas as bathing
"nil over" except on Saturday nights, al
though their farms nro "models of orderli
ness. I know ono woman who regards her
solf as a porfect housekeeper. Her houso
Is always splo and span from cellar to
garret with ono exception tho pantry.
8ho will allow food to stand around un
covered for days, collecting dust nnd Its
attending microbes and oven I nm some
times afraid drawing other less desirable
nntmalculae.
Another girl I know who always glvei
tho nppearanco of being perfectly
groomed has a most nnnoylng way of
picking up,, n hairbrush or comb be
longing to ono of her friends, or a towel,
nnd using It without as mu?h as "by
your Icavo." It Is, after all, theso llttlo
thlng3 that count.
' A GIULi said to mo tho other day, "Fro
" quently when I nm obliged to stay in
town during tho evening I go to an at
tractive llttlo tea shop Just around tho
corner from my odlce. As It Is such a
mail place, one always becomes familiar
With tho faefs of other patrons. Almost
Invariably I seo a young woman of
thirty or thereabouts nlways alone. From
her nppearnnccher manner, her speaking
voice I know she must ho very attrac
tive. J'I have often felt Impelled to speak
to her, yet. somehow. I cannot bring my
elf to do so. "Would you?
"Sho may be suffering from loneliness;
yet, on tho other hand, It may Just hap

room occur on tho samo nights as mine,
and nt other times sho Is not without
companionship."
Loneliness Is tho most deadening In
fluence surrounding many young men and
women in a largo city. It bailies oven
tho most resourceful. A naturo opon to
every valid Interest nnd sympathy strug
gles whon companionship Is denied.
I very thoughtlessly tho other day said
that In my opinion It was only rather
colorloss, unattractive pcoplo who lacked
friends wherever they went. Whereupon,
a woman, whoso charm no ono could deny
nnd who camo to this city as n total stran
ger four or flvo years nso, told mo that It
was nt least three years before sho know
ovon ono person.
Sho said that sho had lived In a sub
urb of Philadelphia for two years, nnd
during that time, although sho saw nu
merous attractive pooplo at church and
near her homo, not ono woman had ever
spoken to her, although thoy must have
known sho was a stranger, until tho week
sho was. preparing to move.
Of course, this Is bound to happen In a
largo community whon no letters of in
trodvC'on nro brought. But oven theso
sometimes nro ineffectual. They may
mean a call or two. n dinner or two, but
after that a gradual dropping off, unless
tho persons happen to bo unusually con
genial on first acquaintance.
IT SEEMED nn eternity before Jaok spoke.
The tal rolled on northward' and turned
lnlo.Centrnl Park. As it flashed cast ono
of tho wnlks bordered with empty scats
under tho leafless trees he turned his head
nnd sold quietly:
"Would you like to get out and walk a
little? Tho air here Is stifling."
"Oil, yes, yes!" I said quickly. "I can't
brcatlio In here."
Ho sent a quick, pitying glance nt me,
then took up tho speaking tube.
"Stop tho car, please."
Tho chnurfeur obeyed Instantly. As tho
man held tho tail door open for us to alight
Jnck spoke to him.
"wait hoio for us." he said, "wo nro
going to walk a little."
The chauffeur hesitated a moment as If
lie were about to speak. I could not Imaglno
what hr wanted.
"Dirt you wlili to pay for tho marhlno
now, sir?" ho n.ild deferentially
Jack looked nt him blankly for a moment
Thin h brought out Ills bill book
"Afraid I'm going to skip?" ho naked
kindly, "llnw much?"
"Oh, no. sir I ono twenty-five, sir."
Jack handed hint a $2 bill.
That will pay for part of your wait." ho
said. "I'll settle ngaln when wo go bark "
"If I might suggest, sir." the eliaurCour
said, "this Is a very bad place for tbo ma
chine to wait. Just two or three blocks
farther along this path thcro Is a parking
plnco."
"All right, wo'll find you. Let's see, your
number Is "
".I 78 1 C, sir."
Jack scribbled It on a card ho took from
his pocket.
"Cio ahead. We won't bo long."
Tho chauffeur touched his cap. Jumped
Into hl.i inachlno nnd the next mlnuto was
out of sight around tho curve.
I could not help contrasting Jack's treat
ment of tho chauffeur with the way Dicky
would have ncted under similar circumstances
If a driver dared to ask for payment of
his bill before Dicky wa'.i ready to dismiss
him. my husband would havo scored the
driver roundly, threatened to get hJs license
nnd to do other ridiculous things nnd dis
missed him Instantly.
I know that In reality Jack had ns hot a
temper as Dicky, nnd a far moru dangerous
ono If really aroused Hut. while Jack had
been trained to control his from babyhood,
Dicky had never learned to restrain his In
tho least.
It was not tho first tlmo I hail Involun
tarily contrasted tho two. men. Jnck Hlck
ctt. tho cousin who had been brought up
with me. who was tho only brother I had
ever known, was tho only man In my life
until I met nnd married Dicky.

Falling Hair Sallow Complexion
To the Editor o Woman's Page:
Deer Madam t am a devoted reader of the
Ern.vihO Lsnoen and wish you to kindly give
ml soma lnfnrtnallnn m In IhA InllAnlnir. T am
a younr girl fourteen "years old and have a ureat
deal ot dandruff. My hair Is short, endy and
falllnr out. What can I do to set a clear coin-
Slexion, as mine Is yellow end always looks
IrtyT As w are very poor, I wish you would
kindly publish a safe and Inexpensive remedy
for me. HTJILLA u.
Bhampoo your hair thoroughly with liquid
green soap, an Imported soap which can be
bought at any llrst-class drug store. Then
apply the following- tonlo to tho scalp once
a day. massairlne well: Four ounces of
glycerine, flvo ounces tlncturo of canthar
Ides, four ounces of bay rum and two ounces
of water. Do not Imaglno frequent sham
pooing will harm the hair; on the contrary,
oxcept in rare cases.frequent cleanslngs are
necessary to keep tho pores in a healthy
condition. Many persons shampoo the hair
overy week; others, once or twice a month.
If your complexion is yellow It may be
caused by a disorder of tho liver, by In
sufficient exercise and lack of fresh air or
tho wrong kind of food. A. girl of your age
should not eat too many sweets and should
never eat pickles or other things containing
Vinegar. I should ndvUe you to consult a
physician, as he alone can prescribe for
you. Many girls of your ago are slightly
anemic, and In a year or so you should
outgrow this; bjt try to take exercise in
the open air regularly every day.

You were quite right in refusing to go
out with a young man you met in this way.
If he seems to be a desirable acquaintance
and persists in his attentions you might
ask him to come to your house and meet
your parents, then they can judge whether
he is tha right kind of man for you to

nfter n whirlwind woolne during Jack's
absence In South America, No thought of
.lack In nny other light than that of a
brother had eer crossed my mind
Hut two or three times slnco my mar
riage I had wondered why I had not fallen
In love with Jnck Instead of Dicky. I had
nlways stilled tho thought almost lieforo It
came. It oecmoil so disloyal to Dicky.
Now tho disloyalty soemod doubled.
Against Dicky's unreasonable nnd angry
protest. I had gdno to dlno with Jack, my
first meetlnpr with my brother-cousin nftor
his year's absence. Foolishly I had waited
until tho dinner was over to tell him that
I was married.
And tho result of tho waiting had been
that beforo I could prevent him Jnck told
mo that ho had loved mo for years.
Jack in lovo with me I could not real
lzo It.
A queer little wonder crossed my mind.
Kupposo I had known of this n year ago.
Would I havo married Jack, and never
known Dicky? Would 1 havo been happier
so?
Then thero rushed over mo tho realiza
tion that nothlns In tho world mattered but
Dicky. I wanted him, oh ! how I wanted
him ! Jack's Buffering, everything else, were
but shadows. My lovo for my husband, my
need of him theso wero tho only real
things.
I turned to Jack wildly.
"Oh, Jack. I must go home !"
"Yes. yes, presently, dear. Sit down hero
a minute '
He Indicated a bench near us. The nlr
was crisp, but tho sun was shining bright
ly and I waa warmly clad. I sat, down,
more because It did not seem possible to
disobey the command In Jack's volco than
through any volition of my own.
"Margaret," Jack's voice was so different
from his usual one that 1 started tn fear.
"Yes. Jnck."
"I don't want you to reproach yourself
about this. I understand, dear. The right
man camo along, and, of course, you
couldn't wnlt for me to como back to glvo
my sanction."
"Oh, Jack! I ought to havo waited. I
itnow It. You havo been so good to me."
LOSS IS DISCOVHRHD
"I've been good to myself, being with
you." ho returned tenderly. "But I almost
wish you had told me over tho telephone.
You would never hnve known how I felt,
and It would have been better all nround."
He bent toward me, nnd crushed both
my hands In his, looking Into my face with
a gaze that was in Itself a caress.
"Now you must go home, little girl,
back to your husband." The words came
slowly.
"When shall I see you again. Jack?"
I knew tho answer even bofore It camo.
"When you need me, dear girl, if you
ever do," he replied. "I can't be near jou
without loving ynu nnd hating your hus
band, whoever ho may be, and that is a
dangerous state of affairs. Hut, where
ever I am, a note or a wire from the Hotel
Alfred will be forwarded to me, and, If tho
Impossible should happen and your husband
ever fall you, remember. Jack Is waiting,
ready to do anything for you."
My tears were falling fast now. Jack
stood up and laid his hand an my shoulder.
"Como, Margaret, you must control your
self," he said in his old brotherly voice.
"I want you to tell me your new name and
address. I'm never going to losu track of
you, remember that You won't see me,
but your big brother will be on his old
job Just the same."
I told him, and he wrote It carefully down
In his notebook. Then he looked at me
fixedly.
"You would better put your engagement
and wedding rings back on," he said. "Of
course, I realize now that you must have
taken them off when you removed your
gloVes In the restaurant, with the thought
th(it you did not want to spoil my dinner
by telling me of your marriage. But you
must have them on when you meet your
husband, you know"
How liko Jack, putting aside his own
suffering to be sure of my welfare I I put
my hand In my muff, drew out my mesh
bag and opened It

A cont for rough-and-rcutiy wear.
DAD gave us tho surprise of our liven
by announcing that ho Intends to take
n five-nillo walk every day. Kor years
Doctor fJnrrlson has been trying to mako
him leavo his stuffy olllco nnd exercise out
of doors. Now, without nny ono having
mentioned "walk" to him, ho calmly says
th.it ho Is going to cover the dlstanco be
tween his onico nnd tho Country Club every
morning, providing I go nlong for company.
Tho llrst morning I met him downtown,
nil togged out for our walk, ho found fault
with my coat nnd hat. Hn refused to walk
a step until ho had bought mo tho kind
of nn outfit ho thouslit I ought to wear.
Of course, I offered no objections, and
A Coat for "lilusicrj" Days
went trotting nlong with him to thp fihop.
Ho nked to see a "roomy, mannish-looking
coat." I knew when I slipped tho first ono
on that ho wouldn't like It. for I am not
tlio typo that can carry "mannish" clothes.
Ho picked out n good-looking vclour coat
next, It was a. wonderful shade of Bor
deaux red trimmed with moleskin. Thero
was n broad band about tho hem, a. cape
collar nnd cuffa of fur. Tho extravagant uso
of fur teally mado the coat much too heavy
Finally, Dad saw n cont of a. heavy
i:ngllflh mlxturo that appealed to his sen
sible taste It has a rough surface, and the
predominating color Is tan, flecked with
red. brown, crcen nnd bluo It Is tho kind
of material that snow or rain couldn't pos
sibly harm.
The' coat Is built on Itusslan lines with
a semintted bmllce. Below tho waistline
It hangs In deep folds Tho bodlco nnd
skirt nro cut In one, which makes tho coat
much moro becoming to mo than tbo models
with filled bodices nnd full circular skirts
Two slot pockets, outlined with mnchlnc
Htilchcil strappings, trim the front. A belt
of medium width, fastened with two coln
Jiaprd brown Imrn buttons nnd button
holes, defines the waistline.
Tho long sleeves lutvo wide, pointed,
turncd-bne'e cuffa of the material, each
trimmed with n single button. Then there
ii a wide collar of beaver thnt ran bo but
toned snugly about tho neck or turned down
na ono wishes. Thrco buttons fasten the
front.
Tho coat Is lined with a nllk In a soft
tono of gray-green I think this particular
color Is called cypress green.
I wore tho coat and had my old ono
sent home. Then Dad took mo to tho mil
liner's. Tho only small hat that looked
well on mo was a military-looking turban
of black velvet. It Is trimmed with a
wheel-like ornament of black giosgraln rib
bon. I had tho milliner ropy It In Itusslan
green velvet and ribbon of tho same tono.
Dad also bought mo a barrel-shaped
beaver muff to match the collar of my
cont. He says that ho considers this tho
most fseiislhla outfit I've had slnco I grew
up. Mother agrees with him.
Wo took our first 'lilko" today nnd
had luncheon nt tho Country Club. Dad
nto llko a starved lion.
I think I'll ask l'eggy Crawford to come
on for a visit. I need an excuse for giving
somo parties.

any In tho world; thero Is only ono thing
that surprises me, which la to una one
of the windows unfinished,"
To this criticism Alnddln nnswered: "Sir,
tho omission wns by design, slnco I wished
that your majesty should havo tho glory
of Mulshing this hall."
Nature very rarely, If over, rears an
absolutely complete hall ot beauty. Thero
Is nlways an "unfinished window" thnt sho
allows you the "glory" of finishing. In
other words, thcro Is almost always a fen
turo of your physical make-up In which
you can discover n flaw. It remains for
you to correct this defect and to mako your
beauty ns perfect as you can.
YOtJU "UNFINISHED WINDOW"
Perhaps tho "unfinished window" In your
hall ot beauty Is a doublo chin, a badly
shaped mouth, shaggy eyebrows, n "pug"
nose, hollow checks, a muddy complexion
or lifeless hair. You will not need tho
magic help of n genie to perfect nny ono
of theso "windows." A llttlo tlmo dovoted
to tho dally care of your beauty will correct
many of theso defects.
You can "wear away" a double chin by
massaging It In tho right manner, and
"melt" It away by wearing n chln-rcducer
during your sleeping hours. If this Is tho
defect thnt mars your beauty, do not allow
nnothcr day to pasi without making nn
effort to get rid of It.
