Natives Arc Outnumbered by Orientals Buddhism Gains
START THIS STORY TODAY
TT WAS Just about thU time, shortly
A artcr Jane hnd received the welcome
news from Washington, that bIic met the
boy. In all her life .Inne bail never
really Imagined just vlint kluil of a
man she wanted most to marry. Some
clrls have an Ideal man that they have
created out of, their own imaginations, a
man wh6, In spite of Everything else
that may happen In life, standi riearout
in their dreams as the man they might
have married. Jane had never created
an ideal of this hind. Jane lived life,
she fccldom dreamed about It. In the
instance of her firbt leap at marriage In
the dark, she had not stopped to con
sider results, tt was the thing she
u anted to do at the time, and that wns
sufficient. It was in the same way
that this new man came Into her life,
suddenly and unexpectedly.
lie was only a boy of twenty-six,
and Jane was tho most entrancing
woman he had ever met. He had
formed his knowledge of women from
those ho had grown up with in a small
western city. There girls married when
they were n certain age, settled down
and had children, went about doing
small social stunts and were thoroughly
conventional types of womanhood. Jnne
was different. She wns like n flame
darting here and there. Iter manner of
talklug. the way i-lie shook the black
hair out of her ejea, the tragic look that
sometimes showed Itself on her pointed
lit'tlc face, nil these were different. He
hnd never known that there were women
MKe this and quite suddenly he waited
her.
And what about Jane herself?
She was overwhelmed by his dog
like devotion, the homage that he gave
her and that she had never received
irom any other man, the struggle to
make both ends meet, and the care of
loy. It was so wonderful to shift re
sponsibilities to another's brood shoul
ders, to feel that there wns some one
Alio cared and would protect her. Jduo
elt all of this before she felt any kind
of response to the feeling that had been
roused iu the heart of Hob West.
She had met him first at a dance given
or returned soldiers, and she bad
Inured with him and ninny others.
When he had asked shyly nt the end of
he evening if he might take-her home,
lie hnd been surprised, for he had mnde
m impressiou nt all on her. That hnd
icen the. beginning of their friendship.
He had called on her twice before she
ild him about Joy. it was chnrac
eristic of .Tano that she had not men
'nned Joy before. Joy wns a memory
f other days, n result of a horrible
listake, nnd Jnne rebelled because she
quid not be ns other girls who could
left their lovers frankly with no dark
hndnw of the past to haunt their fresh
oung love.
They had been sitting in the dark
out parlor of the boarding house, nnd
ft me, looking about nt the dingy sur-
nindingi-, at the flaring gas jet show-
ig through the frost glass shade, "sull
enly became restless.
"I.it's take, a. walk," she suggested.
And walking down the hot street
rough swarms of playing children, she
id mentioned Joy.
She told it all in n few word". There
nsn't much to, tell, and she had n
ih to dwell on it. Hut when she
urncrt curious ejes upon Ins face to
re what he was thinking she wns Mir
rNcd and almost nwed by the look he
uriied on her. It was filled with pity
einpered with a passionate longing,
'hi- had entered the purk and were in
omparntive rrclusion, nud he turned
her impulsively. i
"Oh, Jane, if I could only mnkc it up
you, nil of it !"
It was then that Jane felt the first

nation -wide f-ampalgn headquarters of
the Episcopal Church.
The Jnpnncsp far outnumber the
Hawalians and the worship of Iluddhn
Is gaining ground rapidly In spite of
the work of the Christian missionaries,
it Is reported.
The Hawaiian Islands, "the I'nradke
of the rnelfic," have a most cosmopoli
tan population. The Japanese, the
Chinese, Koreans nnd other foreigners
arc greatly in excess of the native
population.
Don't I.lhc Clothes
The unlive Hawaiians hae little
use for clothing. However, the mis
sionaries have dressed them, ns they
have dressed down their native vn
garles in n great number of other
matters.
There is a story about a young maid
who walked several miles to church to
be married, carrying her trousseau and
wearing little else but smiles, and who
then put ou her wedding gown outside
the church, that she might parade
nrnndlv down the nWe. .The clothes
were useless to her for an thing
for decoration.
As it was the women's ptivilcgc not
to wear any clothesr It wns her duty
to propose marriage, according to Ila
wallan rules of etiquette. "None of
the girls has asked me yet." replied one
fine-looking Hawaiian youth, when
asked by an American why he never
married.

comes to pretty girls, give mc Phila

Ever hear any one say that? It's
true. Philadelphia always has been
noted for its beautiful women.
Ever since the da.is of William Prun.

In a "narrow waist girdle, n green silk
scarf thrown over hs shoulders, n
necklace H large beads and a crown of
scarlet feathers."
Soon nfter the missionaries had got
settled in their own bouse on shore
the king, uccompnnled by his five wives,
all of them without one stitch of cloth
ing, came to visit them again. It was
hinted that he would receive; more ror

tells us, "old maids were not to be
met with, nnd the children were gen
erally well favored nnd beautiful to be
hold." Philadelphia has been distin
guished for the loveliness of her daugh
ters. The fame of Peggy Shippen needs
no annotation, and the piquant and de
mure Quakeress, Sally Wister. and
others 'of that period are equally well
known.
Then there was Miss Emllj Scham-

the uever-to-be-forgotten beauty'
in the
throb of response to his feeling. She
had been pitird before many times by
many people, but never In just this way.
This 'was a broader comprehension of
what she had gone through, n willing
ness Jo share the present worries that
were troubling her and to takn upon
himself the burden of another man's
child, all for love of the child's mother.
It wasn't, either, as If this boy had.
plenty of money, lie hnd his own wbj
to mnke in the world. Jane felt all this,
and the bigness of his nttitude stirred
her as a more selfish passion would not
have been able to. Thin was a dif
ferent love from any other sho had
ever known, a love that did not think
of itself ns much as it did of the loved
one.
She slipped a cool little linntl into
the big one that swung by her side,
nnd his fingers closed over hers in
tiinatriy. There was n consecration
nlmnt liii silenl.nlcdee that filled Jane's
heart with pence. She felt as it sne
had reached u blessed haven of rest.
Tor a time they said nothing nt nil ;
they walked along in the cool darkness.
Then they turned nnd walked slowly
back to Jane's boarding house. The
sordidnpss of the street seemed more
than ever noisy to June, and when they
finnllv reached the outc nnd she bnw
several people sitting on the stone, steps
she felt a certain dread of facing them.
She had kept Hob ns much nwny from
the hous" as r-ossiblo since she had
known him. Any bonrding house seems
out of place for romance, and tonight
ns the two walked up the steps they
were met by close scrutiny nnd no few
giggles on the part of two shop girls
who whispered something ns they moved
aside for the two to pass through.
. In the darkened front parlor Hob took
her gently in his arms and burled his
face for a minute in her flurfy hnir.
Ills kiss on her lips when he left her
was boyishly brief, and Jane was grate
ful for it. ' She lovrd him for tho fact
that he did not force his passion on her.
Jane was rather familiar with the utter
selfishness of man. She had bcenmar-

Will Save You $500
The instant the war was over, Paris began to
dance, and, curiously enough, the dance has
determined the mode of even the most sedate
autumn street frock. In repose, the silhouette
remains slim. But the instant one moves
walking, dancing, crossing a room it must
have grace and flow of line.
How can you get that floating effect? How
should you stand when you wear it? How can
you know the favored colors? How can you
assure yourself added distinction of dress and
save yourself from misguided or haphazard
buying?
The secret is not more money. Tt is Vogue's
authoritative, advance fashion advice.1
The gown you buy and never wear is the really
expensive gown. Gloves, boots, hats, that miss
being exactly what you want arc the ones that
cost more, than you can afford.
