CLEVERNESS DOES NOT CONSIST
IN BEING MERELY CAUSTIC
.The Girl Who Only Scintillates When She Is Cut
tingSuffragists Versus Suffragettes Their
Respective Attitudes on the War
SEVERAL girls were discussing an
absent acquaintance. All agreed that
ho was extremely clever except one girl,
Who said: "Sho says clever things, yes;
t)Ut cutting. Real cleverness, to my mind,
means saying funny things without
making them cutting, for It is dead easy
to be caustic."
Thus sho Illustrated har point.
Gut, after nil, Is there not a great deal
of truth In what sho says? Somo girls
have undeniably a ready tongue when It
cornea to making cutting remarks at the
expense of their friends whoso weak
nesses they have carefully studied, but
the really clever person is sho whoso
email talk is not limited to tho fallings
of her Intimates, but who can express her
elf entertainingly and originally on al
most any subject.
I know one girl who is habitually silent
When others are conversing In a group
about things at largo. But let tho con

all movements of tho kind, it seems un
just to womankind that the hysterical

Is a time for something more than brass

Etiquette of Weddings
To the Editor of Woman's Page:
Dear Madam Kindly answer In the Woman's
Exchange tho following questions.
First. In sending out wedding announcements
should the cards be Inclosed 1 x same for tho
reception or should they be sent separately?
Second. How should the guests be entertained
at the reception
Third. In It necessary that refreshments be
ered from table or car. they be sened In
dividually? Fourth. When a wedding 1 announced at a
party how should It bo worded'
Fifth. Should the engagement ring he a dia
mond or could It be the blrthstone? X. Y. Z
First Inclose the card In the wedding In
vitation. The announcements are only sent
out after the ceremony has taken place.
Second. The guests at a wedding reception
need no further entertainment than to speak
to tho members of tho bridal party and the
family and to partake of the collation pre
pared for them. It is very pleasant to have
music during a reception, but not necessary.
If tho presents are displayed, It Is custo
mary to lnlte the guests to see them, where
they hae been arranged on tables In an
upper room.
Third Refreshments may be served In
cither way. That is, the guests may be
seated at small tables and served by waiters,
or they may be given a buffet collation. At
the latter the women remain standing and
are waited upon by the waiters provided and
oy tne men guests.
Fourth The best way of announcing a
wedding at a party Is to tell It to several
persons and let It go from one to another
by word of mouth. A forma! announcement
Is apt to be rather stiff. If this Is pre
ferred. however, the father of the family
should ask for silence and then say that
he wishes to announce to the assembled
company "the marriage of his daughter
to Mr. , which took place at
church, and on (the date).
Fifth. This question Is answered above

Suggestion Not Taken
To the Editor of Woman' Page:
Otar Madam The letter signed David X.
Wltmer furnishes a humorous side which I hope
"Lonesome Boy" enjoys as much as I do It
reminds me of the preacher who. on going to
a new charge, was taken aside by the sexton
and told that several members of the con
rreaatton were In the habit of rolrsr to alaer
during the sermon, but that the sexton made It
a practice to tip up to the pew they occupied
and waka them up, to which the preacher replied:
You can leave that off. and If you see any
members of the congregation asleep while I
am preachlnr. please come up and wake me
up. It would seem that "lonesome Hoy" has
started the waklng-up process with the aid of
the Evening Ledger, but he still seems blinded
and would appear to be it. the same light aa
"Chilton Orlsmer." In Robert V. Chamber.'
"Restless Sex," meaning well from his point of
view, but like Saul, his eyes can only see
from his own position, which is not tenable from
our positions possibly others are located, as
I am to Illustrate. When I have supped and
am dressed It Is at least 7:30 o'clock. It
would take at least an hour and thirty minutes
to act to the location mentioned, which would be
time to Hart home. Again. Admission free,
nrst thought, when it should be the last. Help
ing your fellow man should come first. But not
Ulve us a dollar first. Next, who will vouch for
Sou? Nay, I ask If you find anywhere In the
ood Book that you must go to the Saviour with
a letter. I think He has taken care of that.
Yet man Is trying to lock the door and collect
aamitiance.
Again, who would have known of Mr. wit.

Let Them Visit Your Home
To the Editor of Woman's Page:
Dear Madam If two girls meet two boys at
a picnic and the boya ask if they may call on
them would It be all right to let them comet
My chum and I went to a Sunday school plcnto
last week and w met two .boya there. Our
minister had not known them before, but he said
they could come to the picnic. They seemed
awful nice, but I did not know If we should en
courage them. ADA.
Aa they asked to come to your house, I
think I would allow it, as your parents can
then meet them and be the judges as to
whether the acquaintance should go on or
not. n would b. mistake to se. them
elMwhera than at home.
THE GOOD HEALTH
QUESTION BOX
Ry DR. JOHN HARVEY KELLOGG
MOST of us have noticed tho marked
benefit that wo have gained from the
use of acid fruits. Not Infrequently one
suffering from fly. peptic disorders Is grently
relieed by taking tho Juice of a lemon
soon after meals. Others have been bene
fited by apple Juice and others by mod
erately ncld fruits.
The naturo of this beneficial effect of
fruit was not understood until the recent
experiments by Pawlow nnd others, which
have succeeded In demonstrating two things
first, that the acids of fruits stimulate tho
stomach to produce gastric ncld, which Is
absolutely essential for good digestion;
and, second, thnt tho ncldt of fruits are)
ablo to tnke tlio placo to somo oxtcnt of
tho natural acid of tho stomuch when this
Is absent.
These facts emphasize the Importance of
acid fruits. Including the tomato a cge-table-frult
as an aid of digestion, espe
cially In cases of persons suffering from
hypohydrochlorla, or nchylla, a condition In
which thero Is a deficiency or nbsenco of
hydrochloric acid, the normal acid of tho
gastrla Juice.
Ono of the Important functions of tho
hydrochloric ncld of the gastric Juice ii to
activate the pepsin; that Is, without acid
the pepsin Is unablo to do Its work In
the digestion of protein. Tho addition of
hydrochlorlo acid to pepsin renders it nc
tUe and efficient, and the acids of fruits
have been proed to bo to somo extent
capablo of replacing the hydrochloric acid
In activating pepsin Tho nclds of fruits
aro valuable foods, like sugar and starch.
They hold In solution the vltnmlnes which
arc essential to life.
Tho nclds of fruits do not cause rheu
matism, ns many people liellee. They do
not acidify the body fluids us do uric acid
and oxalic acid
Grapefruit and Oranges
Are grapefruit nnd ornrmos Rood to rat by
one who has rheumatism'' NOD.
Certainly They nre among the licit
things to eat. Tho fact that grapefruit and
lemons and oranges and things of that
kind are slightly acid discourages a gruit
many people In their uno when they think
they have rheumatic tendencies, becauso
they think the acid will cause rheumatism,
nnd so anything ncld will he harmful. Now
vegetable nclds, like tho acid of a tomato
and fruit acids of all kinds, hao tho effect
upon tho body of an alkali. This fact has
been known to phslologlsts for tetr.il
jears, but new discoveries of this sort are
ery slow In becoming known.
Proper Underwear for Summer
What Is tho b-st kind of underwear for sum
mer? M. I. f
Cotton Is the best to wear next to tho
skin all tho 'year round. In cold weather
woolen should be worn oer tho cotton.
Cotton next to the skin Is always best, be
causo It Is less Irritating to the skin. It
dries quickly and m does not produce a
poultice edict upon the skin ns woolen does
when one perfcplrcs The underclothing,
as well as the outer clothing, should nlways
be porous and loosej
Exorcise Before or After Meals
Is It proper to tnke anv lgorous exerrlso
Just before or after u meal1' O. H K
No Very violent exercise should be
avoided both beforo meals and after meals,
but gentlo exercise nftcr meals Is Just tho
thing In many cases Persons who suffer
from a tendency to heaviness in tho stomach,
or distress, should lie down forty or tlft
minutes after eating Deep breathing th it
Is, taking very full, deep breaths Is a most
excellent after-dinner exercise
Onions
Are onions wholesome" ANNA T
Yes. The onion Is an excellent flavor and
It has also one special lrtue. It contains
a relatively large amount of a erv eally
assimilable form of Iron, and so is good for
blood building.
Buddized Milk
Ma milk be sterilized without bolllne
J ' -J
Yes. By a process known ns buddizlng
commercial milk may bo rendered virtually
free from germs and apparently without
In any way Injuring the milk. The steriliz
ing agent Is peroxide of hydrogen, which Is
added to the milk In the proportion of about
a teaspoonful to a pint of milk. The milk
must bo kept for a certain time at a tem
perature which permits tho peroxldo to act
most eltlclently Buddized milk will keep
several das with ordinary care. Tho method
has long been In uso in Denmark It Is
also In successful use In one of the large
hospitals In Chicago This method Is much
preferable to pasteurizing.

OLD MAN JINX ON THE JOB
TODAY WITH A VENGEANCE
Friday the Thirteenth Is "In Our
Midst" Again With All Brands
of Bad Luck
This Is the day every human Bhould keep
tabs on his temperament
All sorts of things are scheduled to hap
pen, no matter how efficient you may be.
For the seers have told us that Friday
tho 13th is fraught with the gravest gloom.
It's a good day to keep off railroad tracks
and out of airplanes unless you're a regular
fighter. It Is also unwise on such a date
to stand under a safe which Is being hauled
Into a tall office building
Eat your food slowly, for the Jinx Is
lurking In restaurants as well as elsewhere.
If there are thirteen passengers In the car
which you take home, get out and walk.
This Friday the 13th Is more ominous
than all Its predecessors It is Just pos
sible that potatoes will take another Jump
skyward, and the milkman may even de
cide not to serve you unless your name Is
in "Who's Who" or the "Blue Book "
If you are going to move, change the date
until tomorrow. When you think of all
the trouble that follows moving on any
normal day, Just Imagine the horror which
would accompany such a task today.
The piano may fall out of tho window
and the moving man Is liable to havo In
terior burdens which will make him fall
Just as he Is carrying your cut glassware
Into the new house.
Watch every move you make. Walk
slowly and be careful what you say. It is
the day of Irritable moods and the spirit
of combat Is In the air. There are many
brave persons who will wed today In spite
of the date.

LIVING UP TO BILLY
By ELIZABETH COOPER
This powerful, hnman document, written In the form of letters to ,
yonng mother serrlnr a term In prison, Is one of the most crlpplnr llterar
prodncts of the twentieth eentnry.
XLI Continued.
Jim said, "Oh, can the hot air. I want
the kid, I'm going to get out, but I'm going
to take him with me." I said, "Yes, you are,
nit" Jim looked at me kind of curiously
for a mlnlt nnd said, "What aro you so
crary about him for. why do you want
hlmr I said, "1 don't know what I want
him for. I don't know, but you won't have
him He's tho nrst thing I ever had In my
life that's seet nnd clean, and he s the first
thing that over loved me without thinking
what they could make out of me. Why.
when ho was In tho country and he d come
to the gate to meet me, with his eyes shin
ing with love and his faco all dimpling with
laughs, I'd choke up and somo times not be
ablo to speak. Billy's made mo live. Hos
made something new come to me. lies made
me see all llfo different, nnd I'm going to
pay him back for what he's done for mo
by giving him a chance." Jim laughed,
"You glvo him a chance," he said, "what
kind of a chance can you give him?" I
said, "I don't know for sure. I ain't got
It all figured out, but he's going to have
his chanco to grow up llko other men."
Jim acted soro again and said, "Ah what's
tho uso of talking. We're wasting time. I
want money nnd I'm going to have the kid.
If I can't find him I'll put the gang wise,
and somo of them'll find him all right"
At that I think I Just went off my head,
and I didn't care whether tho police heard
me or not I said, "Jim, don't you dare to
try to take Hilly. Don't you daro to put
any of your dirty gang on to get him away
from me. I tell you I'll peach on you, I'll
find out whero you'ro hiding and I'll bring
the pollco thero myself. I'll fight for Billy,
I'll fight as any tvoman'll fight for a baby.
If you dare to touch him or let any of your
sneakln' pals come near him, I'll follow you
till I sco you behind tho bars If I have to
follow you till Hell freezes over."
Jim seemed as If he couldn't speak for
a mlnlt, then his faco got red and he came

'Tell mo whero that kid Is." I said, and
moved away from him, "I won't toll you."
Ho said again to mo, "I Bay, tell me where

bit, he said, "Now, I will tell you what you

will take you up to the old lady's. You
