A hat such as this certainly saves
tho eyes from the glare of tho sunl
my mind to all soits of muchunicut de
vices whereby the man behind the cigar
may burn his own smoku. But none
of these seem ciulto to satisfy. Tho
smoking mortal Is a soclul creature; ho
wishes to be In the midst of tho filendly
group, not coated aloof.

heart of tho motive for my concealment

smoker Is never hulf so easy to dual with
as when hu Is nicely lighted and com

as much tact nnd two per cent as much
entertainment to run an evening's chat
with his cigar as without It.
"That, I think. Is tho reason why a
man, by asking, can luvcr tell whether

they will go thiough llfo convinced that
I do not mind cigars, for I shall tell

It would be rather foolish for you to
travel up one day to noston and your fiance
follow on tho next day, and so on tn Maine.
It might cause gocslp If jou traveled
straight through to JIalne on fleering cars
without a chaperone. but If you break the
trip by stopping In Boston over night with
friends there Is no reason why you phould
not trael In tho day trains together.
Picnic Luncheon
To the Editor 0 tl'onian' Page:
Dear Madam We are clvlnir a picnic next
7,vk 'CvkS? 'aS?.'1 ?bi me mlles 'n he cSun
try. What aort of thlnsa to cat would you
advise our taklns? Aro Klneham dreaaea nnd
ttuffi- hat the proper thlncs to wear for auch a
party? KATE.
Of course, an elaborate luncheon of salads
and cold meats could be taken, but these
things always necessitate llver, nnd then
you hae to carry tho silver home. It is
better to carry such things as sandwiches,
cake, fruit nnd perhaps a vacuum bottle
filled with some cooling drink. Of course,
the vacuum bottle must be taken home, but
as It keeps things cool or hot as desired, it
Is worth lugging about.
Dainty sandwiches of minced chicken and
mayonnaise, ground olives and chicken
livers, or ground olives and cream cheese,
lettuce and mayonnaise are llKht to carrv
and require no forks and knives; fruit also
may be eaten vtlth tho fingers, and cakes
also.
Gingham dresses or white shirts and
skirts would be appropriate to wear, but I
would advise plain hats, sports or stiff,
rather than fluffy ones for a day In the
woods.
Would Motor With Young Man
To the Editor 0 Woman' Jao;
Dear Madam I know oo-oune man who ha
a amall motorcar which only holda two peraona.
II haa aaked ma to so out with Mm aaverai
tlmea. but my mother ha not allowed It; ahe
aaya there ahould be a third poraon with ua aa I
am only aeventeen. I havo known the young
man for lx month and he haa always been very
pollt and not a bit freah. Don't you think It
would be proper for m to no with him?
ANXIOUS.
You must take your mother's advice In
this matter. I think you wilt find she will
consent If you approach the subject tact
fully and do not suggest going out alone In
the late evening. A rde in the afternoon,
In these days when girls are allowed more
freedom, would not be apt to be criticized
by any one, provided you know the young
man to be a gentleman.

Perhaps you have delayed ncqulnnc
a sweater until now. Perhaps you
have been making last summers

any event, If you want your sweater
to conform to tho very smartest idea
in tho modo you must have it finished
with collar nnd cuffs of nngora wool,
with maybo a lower edgo trimming

moro effective for this purposo than
any color that you might select. This
is true oven when the body of tho

softness nbout white nngora that is
lacking in nny color of tho same
mntcrial. And when tho sweater it
self is of color the white collar and

that Isn't reason enough for h's making

that he knows how to make tnem ana
doesn't know how to make anything else.
He sas the last Is tho best reason of all.
This mbrnlng when my father went to bed
to Rleep after his night watching 1 got two
nickels out of his pocket for my dinner and
then Itowdy nnd I rambled. When we came
to the Rectors' new houso which they nre
building where the house stood that Wilbur
Carpenter set on fire and got IiIh face full
of powder burns, which helps It somo. tho
men were not working So Itowdy nnd I
went through tho new houso nnd I went up
the ladder Into the upstairs part. After a
lot of coaxing Rowdy came up too.
I had half a brick trying to drhe a nail
Into a plank when I heard a noise, and ran
to where a window Is going to be nnd looked
out. There I saw Wilbur nnd Dutch and I
smiled at them and they smiled back I
thought If they felt as friendly as that I
would go down and play with them. So I
started to go down the ladder and tho lad
der had been taken away and there was no
way for me to go down. I went back to the
window nnd said. "You put that ladder
back." Wilbur said "Honk-honk," nnd
Dutch laughed. Then they looked around
to see If any one was coming.
Thero was a board against the front of
the house nnd I gave It a push and over It
went and slammed Wilbur on the head
Down ho went In a box of plaster the men
had made to use and he got up squalling
and started for home. Dutch ran away and
I hung by my hands nnd dropped. Then 1
put back the Indder and helped Rowdy and
wo got to school In time, onlj ' 'iad to go
back to the new house for my booUs, which
I had forgotten
The very flrst thing tho tall lady took me
to my teacher and hald, "Here. Miss
Groarty, I am afraid I am handing jou
something this time, but do tho best you
can with It. I don't think anybody will
blame you whatever happens." When Miss
Qronrty saw It was mo she said, "Why,
hello. Patsy " 1 suld, "Hello, teacher. Here
I nm. thank Clod." The children laughed
and Miss Groarty said, "You must not talk
llko that, for It Is wrong" I said, "All
right, If you say so. but 1 don't see what Is
wrong nbout It." Miss Groarty said, "You
must not argue. Patsy"
After a little while something made me
look up and there In the door stood tho tnll
lad nnd Mrs. Carpenter and Wilbur, all
white from head to foot. The tall lady said
to Wilbur. "If you can sec the child that did
It point her out." Wilbur pointed 1110 out
and the tall lady crooked Jier nuger at me
and something made me feel trembly and
ocared ns I got out of my seat nnd tried to
smile at MIsj Groarty, but couldn't
Tho tall lady took me into a little room
nnd as I was going I whispered real low.
"Dear mother which nrt In her,on, your
little gill Is In trouble and doesn't know
what to do. Pleaso tell God and hurry up
nbout It" Then we wero In the little room
and the tall lady said to me. "Did you do
that?" I said, "Yes, ma'am Hut " She
said, "That will do. Remain in thin room
until I tell you to go hack to your class."
Then tho others went nut, Mrs. Carpenter
looking pleased. Rowdy and I climbed
through the window and went home and
crawled under tho house nnd wondered If
the tall lady and June and Miss Groarty
would caic If wn died and wished that we
could try It nnd sec So we stayed until it
wns dark and then I spent my nickels for
things to cat and ate them and I prayed,
"Dear God, please do not let my mother feel

THE GOOD HEALTH QUESTION BOX

medicine, but In no case will he loe the rttk 0 maKlna diagnoses 0 or prescrlMnp tor all-
meiitf reqwlrlnp snroleal frcalmenl or druo. Health Questions uill be rromptfy nn
swered by personal letters to Inquirer tulio Inclose stamped emelopes tor reply.
Flat Foot
THIS condition Is usually found In oung
adults whoso occupation entails long
standing and constant overfatigue, or It may
be caused by a fall on tho feet, with subse
quent Injury. Many persons complain of
"weak arches" without having reached the
stage of "fallen arches" or Hat foot
Properly chosen exercises, with as much
rest as possible, are tho best remedies to
adopt. Rest 'allows the oerstratned liga
ments and muides which normally main
tain the arch to recover their elasticity nnd
tone, and this Is helped by msBsage of the
feet and legs.
A person with this condition of the arches
should walk with toes pointed directly for
ward, If possible slightly inward, for a time,
and when sitting should cross the feet so
that they lest on their outer borders a
position which, if not elegant. Is at least
restful nnd beneficial.
The best exercise Is raising tho body on
tlptoo with the toes turned Inward. This
must not be done to the extent of great
fatigue. Lowering and raising a dozen
times night nnd morning Is BUfllclent for a
start; gradually the exerclso la Increased as
the muscles regain their tone. It Is od
vlsable in this case to have the Inner side
of the heel of the shoe higher than the
outer, and many cases will require arch
supports to be worn In tho shoe.
abstemious Ufa will reduce the pressure.
The cause of the high blood pressure should
be reuwed If possible. A phjslclan should
be promptly consulted.
Intestinal Gas
,. I am troubled with Inttftlral ens, chiefly In
inn morning I do not eat much meat. I drink
milk, eat eg3, eti y. jj, yt
Some people are sensitized to milk and
are not able to eat It. Kggs hIho, If eaten
frequently, do not agree with many people.
You should avoid nil meat. milk, and ent
eggs very sparingly and always soft cooked.
inn yuKrs are netter man tho whites.
Your diet should consist chiefly of fruits,
fresh green egetahles nnd cereals. Kat
bran, grahnm and rye bread Drink at least
six glasses of water dally, between meals.
The right kind of food Bhould result in
three bowel movements dally.

Tho patient should consult a physician

It may be due to excesslvo meat eating or

Interesting person who peddles publicity
of such a wild nnd excessively lendable
nature that his own purple personality Is
burled beneath the 0"ns of adjectives nnd
i'ellons of press matter created by his agile
brain
So this slory, tho (list absolutely accur

about Will A Page, who Is doing tho nd

tacle which comes to the Metropolitan in
September. Mr. Page, ns lots of Philadel

and beyond drnft ngo. A column or two

From the days of the Orphcum Stock

Dramatic edltois grabbed their desks and

a show. They expected strange and
radiant happenings and William neser dis

caused "the biggest painted sign In the

the man who did a landslide business at

seems, but has some sort of comfort
attending it.
The dullest fellows may learn to
be comical for a night or two.

tho I.lttlo Theatre through crimson adver
tising nnd tho announcement of post-mat-Ineo
tho dansants on the stage, and who
became Involved with Art Director Frank
Helchcr In a bloodless battle oer the pro
priety of such stunts. Soeral gallons of
perspiration were shed In this desperato en
counter. He la tho man who concocted
the most outlandish tales ever Invented In
connection with "Kxpcrlcnce," which kept
that "morality play" at the Adelphl for an
aeon. Ho It was who supervised lunches
and dinners back-stage; who swiped tips
from O. Henry and others, and whose
chorus girls did everything from feeding
the pigeons at City Hall to buying peaches
at ndjacent stands while residents of Con
shphocken nnd Haddington gaped at their
garish robes and greaso paint In the sun
light. It was Mr. Tago who exhumed a "nut"
author and planned to put on his "poetic
drama" with screaming ads reading. "Posi
tively tho worst play In the world I" He
dlbcoered that pleasing function, the for
mal Khtep-shearing soiree In connection
with "The Wanderer," and had pressed
(lowers (of a suspiciously New Jersey
origin) Imported from the Holy Land. In
a word, Mr. Page Is an Imaginative and
businesslike young man, who will piobably
offer this city some moro amusing and
melodramatic Inducements to come to "The
Wanderer "
