CINDERELLA'S DAUGHTER
By HAZEL DEVO 11ATCIIELOR

The First Question of Finance
SVNQPMS
Virginia West meets Kathleen
Foster at boarding school aud fiom
that time on they become close
friends. They have entirely different
temperaments, as Kathleen is entire
ly selfish. Both girls become engaged
at the same time, but, while Kathleen
is in love with love und is plaiug,
Virginia' is very much in earnest.
Mrs. West disapproves of the possi
ble marriage because Jimmy Auder
son lias no money. She removes Vir
ginia from the school m that the
young people can be kept apart.
jVTRS. WEST thought that the best
1VJ. Way to bring Virginia to her senses
was to lavish clothes on her and keep
her mind busy. When Virginia arrived
home from Pnlmcrtown her mother met
her with the promise of all kinds of
good times. Once if her mother had
suggested that the two go ubout to
gether, Virginia would have been over
joyed. Now she could not contemplate
anything with pleasure; the thought of
Jimmy made her miserably unhappy, and
the very fact that her mother treated
her like u womnn about most things
and like an infant- about this one was
hardest of nil to, bear.
Mrs. West seemed to live in n whirl
of extravagance. Virginia wondered
vaguely if they were rich, and once she
ventured to expostulate with her mother
when in an exclusive milliner's Mrs.
West paid more than $150 for two
hats. She had opened her expensive
beaded bag to pay for them, and Vir
ginia had seen its contents of not more
than a couple of bills with some loose
change.
"I never have any money with me,"
she laughed, snapping the bag shut and
looking up laughingly at the svelte, un
responsive saleswoman. "Just put that
on my nrcount."
And then as they bad been going out
Virginia bad rfverhcard this same woman
complaining to one of the girls that
Mrs. West hadn't paid her bill in six
months and that Madame would be
furious when this new Item was dis
covered. But when Virginia mentioned this,
Mrs. West laughed at her. "Every one
does those things, child," ,
Virginia frowned. "But they must
pay their bills some time. If they don't,
what happens?"
"Of course they pay their bills some
time," Mrs. West returned, "Just as I
shall pay my bills some time when you
decide to be sensible and majry a rich
man." ' ,
It was the first time that Virginia
had felt a real sense of responsibility
for her mother, and It worried the girl
more than a little. Was it possible
that her mother was spending money
that she didn't have and had no way
of getting? Was it possible thut her
mother was actually expecting her
daughter's brilliant marriage to null her
out of all difficulties? Virginia could'
hardly believe that; her mind kept leap
ing ahead into impossible delightful fu
tures, futures that included only her
wlf nnd Jimmr. with no vulgar in
trusion of wealth. Of course. It would,
be nice to have money, but, then, it
would be fun to have to economize und
to do without things at first. This was,
of course, the idealistic viewpoint of a
girl who has never known poverty, and
what it Strang to do without the things
that money will

they would be happy. It was very
beautiful to lie iu her soft bed in her
b up room, under an electric light that
gleamed out frostily from n pale blue
satin shade, and dream of love and
sacrific", but Virginia, iu spite of the
sturdy strain of clear reasoning in her
iintnrc, was just u child aud quite un
tried. Just before Jimm.v was to graduate
from (.rant Mrs. West took Virginia to
the moiiutnins. If there hud been nny
lingering hope in Virginia's heart Hint
her mother might relent nnd take her
to see Jimmy graduate it was shattered
then, for hhe realized that they were
going principally to get her away from
the city. She was inconsolable at first,
but she was oung, and when one is
eighteen it is hard to be cold nnd un
responsive. It isn't in the heart of a
girl of eighteen to mope forever, and
it was excitiug to buy new frocks and
dainty slippers and frilly underwear,
and to pack everything in tho shiny
wardrobe trunk nnd to be going off ad

to Jimmy, but she did accept the present
more philosophically than she bad be

Dear Cynthia This is the first time
I vo troubled you, but I don't know
whnt to do iu n certain mutter. I
nnd a boy of sixteen. I went to a party
with a girl. At this party she Infro
duced me to a girl friend of hers. After
the party nnolher boy nsked me was it
all right for him to take the girl 1
brought home. I snhl lie had iu' per
mission, but to ask her. and lie did.
So he accompanied her "home, while I

girl's coinpnn.v very much and I hifve
met her n few times after the party, but
I haven't seen her for over two weeks,
although she lives only around the

I have known hint for ten months.
1 met a boy my nge on the street
whom I have known for six months and
he nsked tne If 1 were going to the
movies. As I "was golug, he nsked per
mission to accompany inc. I assented
nud he paid my way into Hie movies.
Was it proper for him to pay in.v way?
BLACK-EYED BETTY.
You might send the boy a pretty
Christmas card, hut not a present. At,
Cynthiu-hns often said in lite column
the boy should make the first advance
of that kind. It was nil right to allow
the boy to pay our wit to the movies
under the circumstances.
Why Are They So Aloof?
Dnnr C.vnthin I am but a recent
arrival in this city.
There is a matter which has been the
source of much wonder to me and bus
somewhat aroused tuy curiosity, so T
have decided to bring it to ou fox nu
nnswer.
I have traveled extensively, both on
the Continent and nbroad, und have
been a close Observer of human truits
nnd character. Now what I wunt to
know is this: Why nrc Philadelphia
girls so distant and nloof? This fact
is greatly iu evidence, even though they
write letters to your columns (to the
contrary.
For oxumplc, one only Iibb to observe
the crowds strolling about the city most
any evening or on Sunday afternoon.
You will find a very largo majority
of the girls strolling in couples or in
threes, fours or even lives, but seldom
or ever. with a male companion. Those
who do have n male companion ute
usually young married people.
Then while the girls nrc so disport
ing themselves you'll find the men, es
pecially the young and iniddle-uged men,
standing in knots or groups on the
various corners or some other likely
place.
Now who is to blnmc for this condi
tion ; is it one or both?
I have also noticed that a number
of the girls fail to recognize one when
passing on the street when they have
had a previous introduction.
Now, if there are so many girls who
are good pals, as per the letters in your
columns, where are they? 1 mean real,
houest-to-God American girls.
"DOC."
I think they're here, "Doc," in spite
of all you say.
Merry Christmas, T. B. P.
T. 15. P. So glad the splint is gone;
also glad you arc golug to spend Christ
mas in such a wonderful place. Are you
qttito fair ou this one-sided argument?
When scientists can prove what you
hold they can, without employing cheap
mediums and other unreasonable means
perhaps we could argue better ou the
matter. When 1 sec that fakp nnmo nnd
address I II send an argument to thut.
How about that?
A Word to the Boys
Dear Cynthia Will you kindly pub
lish this iu your paper to young men
from about nineteen years of nge to
twenty -two:
When nineteen years of age I had a
decent, respectable girl and, of course
she had her faults, just like others.
But I thought no, I don't waut u
wife yet. I'll wait about four years
and then get married. I'll find a girl
just as good as she is. So it happened
that wc had it little scrap und I said to
myself, 'This is a good way of giviug
her up." So when it was time to g5
home T said, "I'll sec you at u dunce
such and such a time."
Then she said "No. Jack: I won't go
this week." So I said. "Drop me a
line or give mc a call!" Her answer
was "No." I thought, "Ob. she
feels the same way I do ; she likes a good

she told mo I was the only fellow she
had ever loved. I took all this for a
Joke; and bhe was a girl -who had lots

she loved me in a way, so I always told

OF MANY THINGS TO CYNTHIA
What Would You Advise?
Dcur Cynthia I am n girl
twenty. one years old, , This seems
to ntc like a very sad story. What
do you tiling?
Some years ago I was Intro
duced to u young man by my sister.
We fell In love nnd he proposed. He
presented me wllh tin engagement
ring and 1 accepted him. Neither
of us dances, as we don't care for it,
and wc have never been out with one
of the opposite sex. I don't even go
out with u girl friend. When wc go
out together he makes believe he Is,
flirting with another girl, trying to
make me Jealous, I suppose. Al
though I enre, I wouldn't show it.
If I only go to n store ho always
asks mc if I was with another man.
I have to side In with him In every
thing we talk nbout. If I don't wo
have au argument. He has even
struck mc scvernl times when I
hnven't agreed with him. Of course,
he said he was sorry. He was out
of work twice; each time I paid hH
board, went to the shows and bought
sweets ou my money, but no one
knows it outside of us two. The last
time he wns not working for three
months. As I dress in good clothes
you sec I had to give up all new
clothes to keep up what I just stated.
I use n little rouge once in a while.
When he is working he says he will
buy mc anything I Want, but it
seems like throwing money away. I
have been dreaming of a nice home
all our own, but no money is baved
as yet. He tells me he loves mc and
couldn't do without me and I havo
been believing him all theso years.
Shull I keep ou believing under these
circumstnncesV Cynthia, I love him
very much and it would break my
heart to give him up.
1 know this letter is too long, but,
dear Cynthia, you are the only one I
can tell my story to, so please let
me know through your column
which road to choose? I will wait
very patiently for your answer.
Maybe some readers could help too.
A WORKING GIRL.
her I lovrd no one else but her. But
when it came to a good time I left her
out of the game. I used to tell her
nbout different girls I met till I got
her blue. But I'd laugh at all that.
She hud friends who were jealous of her
and who told tne things that were never
so. 1 told her of them nnd she would
cry.
I just realize now what a great treas
ure I lost. I thought more of my boy
friends than of her.
Today 1 um just twenty-eight years
old and I'm looklug for n wife. But
no, I can't find one like my dear lost
girl. Boys, I travel from stntc to state
trying my best to forget her. But
there's nothing to be done. I nm a
broken-hcurted chap since I was twenty-three.
I never thought of her for
four years straight. I um writing This
letter with tears in my eyes for ray
best pal. I come home from work now
looking for some one at the door to
meet mc.
Boys, if you will take my advice,
wlnn you find a girl that you know will
make good kidnap her so no ono else
will get her but yourself. Don't listen
to her friends ns I did. or "to your boy
friends. If I were nineteen years old
again I would show you boys what to do.
You know u good girl nowadays is
hard to find. If I find one she always
bus a fellow already, so that's what I
get for not being true to my lost sweet
heart tho one I love, but too late to
have,

I am on cx-Chicagoau and have been
here a few weeks but have made no
friends except those at the office. 1

What About It, Friends?
Dear Cyntliiu May wo not have a
word about the trend of modern t,o
cietvV Is it not a good time for self
analysis? The present generation has
witnessed some startling changes In our
sociological condition, borne inevitable
with the inarch of time, others vicjous

MOTHER DOESN'T ENTHUSE
OVER JIMMY'S NEW TIDINESS
Because She Knows Tlxat the Reason of It Is a Girl That
Means That Her Baby Is Growing Up
QOMETHING has happened to Jimmy
s Hntith, the worst-looking boy In the
neighborhood. His hair (has always
stood on end as If he were continually
looking at something terrifying (his re
flection probably, the. neighbors said),
but now it's slicked straight back, nis
necktie, for the first time since ho
first -hod one tied on him, hangs under
bis chin instead of under his car. His
fnce is clean twice a day, his collar
seems to belong to blm, nnd there is
every reason to believe that pretty soon
be will appear with a shine on his
fircat big, awkwafd shoes. It seems
ike a miracle.
"What's the matter with you, sick?"
his candid young friends inquire solici
tously. "Well, at last!" remarks his father,
heartily, "It's just about time you be
gan to take some interest in the way
you look."
Jimmy has nothing to say. He grins
sometimes, and sometimes he keeps a
haughty, dignified silence. Ho has his
own reasons and they are going to stay
his.
riOMEHOW Mother doesn't seem to
ljoin In the enthusiasm about Jimmy's
sudden neatness. "its wonuerlul,
she ngrces, but her whole heart doesn't
seem to be in tne words, remaps the
reason is that u certain part of that
heart aches a little when she, looks at
that sleek head that used to be so
mussed up. It may bo that she misses
that daily question, "Jimmy, did you
wash your hands before dinner? Well,
look at them, you can't cat anything
until you take some of that dirt off."
Perhaps she feels just a bit wistful
when she compares that obvious new
necktie with the old dark blue string
thnt he used to knot carelessly.
You Bee, mother understands what
the others don't know asyyet. She
knows that tho one thing in. the world
that would ever have the power to
make Jimmy bother nbout his 'personal
appearance is a girl. Aud she knows
that that mcaus that her noisy, clumsy,
irrepressible, lovable little b5y is grow
ing un. She knows that it won't be
long now before her task of correcting
all his little habits of forgctfulness nnd
untidiness will be given over to some
one else. She loves to correct him be
cause he makes such amusing retorts.
She knows thnt after while she won't
be the first to hear of his good times,
that she won't be the only one who Is
nblc to straighten out his terrific prob
lems and smooth nway the worried look
in his puzzled young eyes.
Sometimes when Jimmy rushes in and

TF YOU nrc one of the unfortunates
who happen to need shoes about

be Interested in the shoes I-eaw today.
in me urst place, you have but to

good shoes. They have an expensive

with tan buck tons. Oh, yes, and1 they
nre laced shoes. Thcro is something

shoes, did you know that you can buv

prefer them for dress, with a omnrt
