WILSON fThey Come From the British Traditional TidbitThe and Those From By SI. A. WILSON (Copurtoht. Mi. lii Mrs. if. A. TVisoii. All rloiU reserved:) TN ENGLAND the morning of Good " Friday is ushered in with a uni versal cry: "Hot cross buns, , Ye hot cross buns, Buy them for your daughter, If they don't like 'em, give 'cm to your sons, Hot cross buns." Few bakers today can make a bun that will compare favorably with those sold in the days of old from the royal bun houses. The Chelsea bun house was the favorite resort of the kings of the realm. Intense rivalry existed between these shops. Early in the present century folk of fhe great middle class came long distances to partake of the hot cross buns on Good Friday, as they were served on this day in the Chelsea bun house. A superstition regarding bread baked on this day has taken the popular belief through the entire British Isles. This bread must be kept by the family for the ensuing year, to ward off danger of fire and also to prevent serious intestinal dis orders. A few gratings of bread baked this day in a small amount of water are supposed to be the pan acea for intestinal disturbances. Many wonderful tales are told of the favor conferred by royalty upon the bakers of the famous English hot cros3 buns. Among them is one that says when Edward VII of England was a small lad he person ally made a visit to the famous Chelsea bun house with lots of boys from school. They raided the shop, and then told the proprietor to send the bill to the royal mother, Victoria MrShJ.-srsKs hio nionaiirn. nnn innc trie nueen nau personally left an order for these buns to be sent to the castle. Chefs of the royal household have long held the secret of the recipes for these fnmous delicacies. If you desire to have these buns early Good Friday morning you .a .."., - - J& 1 must prepare them the day before.

I am going to endeavor to enlighten you, to a degree, as to that "sob story" of yours. Where in the name of cvery-day pro priety ami common sense do you con ceive the idea that a true gentleman will want to hug and kis n girl whose couipuny he has enjojed after taking her out for some recreatiou or refresh ment on an imlting eicningV If n girl, regnrdless of the length of friendship with a boy, will net iu n way to make the Idea of kissing and hugging her seem remote and absurd, jou girls may rest assured no fellows will hac such desigus occur to them. You'll admit, "ltabe." that some of jnur sex are so delightfully alluring thnt you can't just help wanting to "love 'em"; but if a girl wilt keep a firm and correct poise, in such circum staucc as seeing a miss to her door, etc., a fellow iu return cau easily curb his temporary emotionalism. Not that 1 don't miss them when T sec them home.; I do, and see no lcnl harm in it; but if a girl makes herself unapproachable I nm stinted as to wanting to become sen timental. Of course, if u boy states his affectiou nfter two jears of respectful acquaintance, dou't ever refuc to humor liiin; that is, on condition his sweet thoughts nrc reiiprocnted. Don't forget, girls, niue chances out of ten it depends upon the way .ou conduct jourself. J ins rule is applicable to Iiavmg a gentleman as jour companion, not any lounge lizard or similar affliction. gentleman who is a good fellow, but likes to be dciilish and sentimeutal. As to your other romplaiut, cheer up, "Babe." A moral runs similar to the fact that n "baby burns f(s finger on a hot stoic but once." If n young man should meet jou nt a party, show you much ntteutiou and after flattering you consiucraDiy escort jou Home, jou mnj consider jourself as baling temporarily attracted the boy. If he forgets the promise about calling jou on the phone or writing jou in order to make a fu- i turc engagement, consider that vour jfirst "burn." Don't be burnt again. Discount what is said nnd done the next time, nnd if n fellow comes along who means what he sajs he'll flatter you less, but majbe appreciate jou more. He'll keep the most of his promises, and then you can cease to be skeptical. Your ideas arc modern, but what are we poor mortal males to do?

The prototype of the modern eil might be traced back through the nges to medie val Europe when the style for wearing eils was brought out of the Orient with the Crusaders; and the Oriental icil is the sign and proof of the attitude of the eastern male toward his woman. He wants to enjoy her beauty nil him self. He denies no pleasure as do our occidental men iu feeling thnt others find her lovely. The Oriental keeps her immured when possible; the eil isthc concession to tho fact that on occasions she goes outside her walls. Surely no American iniiinn ever wore a c'il to hide her loieliness com pletely. . , , , Perhaps she wears it io sinem mi face from the wind, from dust or in sects. Perhaps so in some cases.

Out In Manhattan, Kansas, tills was one of the good things that came out of tho war. It was founded for tho soldiers and their friends, of course, but tho Idea of It sort of sticks. It seems as though tho value of these public homey gathering' places has been so genuinely proved that we ought to keep them up long after the things of war aro all settled. I do not think many people realize tho great need there Is for such places. Mention, for Instance the word court ing parlor and see what kind bf re sponse you get. People frequently laugh nt the very Idea. , Yet hero are thp particulars; There are hundreds who cannot bring boys into their homes. Sometimes there are four children sleeping in what ought to be the parlor and sometimes, pro vided there Is a parlor, it Is crowded with tho wrangles of parents and the walls of sleepy babies not, yet put to bed. "What are theso girls to do? It has become the custom with them to meet the boys on tho street corners. Think -what tho big cosy municipal, better still, neighborhood, sitting room would mean to them. Boys and girls aro wonderfully good at heart.
