A Knock for "Star Dancer"
Dear Cynthia Iu answer to "Star
Dancer" : . , ,
In reference io your protossod be
lief that slopping is the only convincing
argmnmt a girl can use; If ou uro
so thick-headed and so ignorant of the
first rules of common etiquette that
only a slap will penetrate jour con
science, then my only hope for jou is
that ou get one of these lady truck
drhers for a wife, and that she has
no scruples for the weal, which will
prevent her knocking jou down wben
ou offoud her. ...
If jou are trjiug to bud a girl whom
ou can respect, do jou thiok that
cafes and dance-halls are likely to be
frequented by the really nice girls? They
come about as frequently as diamonds,
in the coal mines.
And yet another thing, respect docs
uot have to be acquired. The very
moment you meet a girl worthy of it,
it comes instautuneously. If you have
never felt that I'urrcnt toward jour
ores, nt comtiiinioiis in advice is to lose
them and meet some real girls. If our
m illation has so declined tnut gins
mut train to be pugilists, thou Heaven
help the rising generations'. But the
time has not conic when girls must
he prizefighters to hold the eeteem of
their friends, and the sooner jou tind
it out the better for jou.

Why Does She Attract Them?
Dear Cynthia I feel pontho that
you are a niun, so probablj you will bo
good at answering this question.
Win is it that a girl of ordinary
looks, 'of no accomplishments, and ut
terly devoid of stjle. con attract and
charm men? The girl I have iu mind
has been on friendly terms with mo for
vearb, and every word I have written
i's the truth. She could not converse
intelligently to save her life, and yet
she has been enguged eight tunes that
I know of.

of Many Things to Cynthia
What Do the Readers
Think About This Letter?
Dear Cjnthia What do jou
think of gentlemen who take girls
out ou Now Ytnr's Fe to a midnight
show:1 and then allow them to go
homo alnue at -' :30 o'clock in the
morning? Now the girls didn't ac
tually make an appointment yilh
these bojs, but they mot them ncei
dentall. Of course, hod the kuowu they
wouldn't be escorted bonie. they
would not have accepted the invita
tion to the show, but naturally they
took it for granted that they would
bo taken homo. Now what I want
to know is whether it wus proper
for them to tnko the girls homo under
the circumstances. M. K.
ject, but Cynthia won't jou answer this
question'' I know there are many others
who are iu a maze about this, too,
I. C.
Theio is not any explanation of this
tliim;. It simply exists. The fact re
mains that men often see qualities in
women that othc" women do not sec.
And there arc mi'iiy women who are not
gifted witli brains who have sufficient
knowledge of men to charm them for a
time, uud some all their !ics. The
fact that this grl lias been engaged
eight times shows that she is not able
to hold a man long enough for him to
marry her. When a man becomes en
gaged to a gill he actually comes to
know her bolter nnd in this case has
found thai there is nothing there but
an outward attractinu.
Sister Is Worried
Dear Cynthia I have a hiothcr
about twenty-fno jears old who dues
not care for girls to any extent, but
jet lias a girl of his own. Ho has boon
going out with this girl for about eight
or nine years. They sot the date for
gelling married and then ho changes it.
She is, as jou would saj , cra.y about
him, and I think ho likes her, but ho
doesn't realize what n girl's real feel
ings are, and she is led orj easilj.
She likes the faniilV ery miicb and
I think is afiaid of offeudiug us. or she
would become engaged to another fel
low, for she has pkntj of friends, anil
there's a fellow right now who wants
to marry her.
I am afraid if they marry they will
be miserable aud he or she doesu't kno
what to do. Thev will ho obliged if
jou will tell them whether to marrv or
not. A TnOFHI.F.D SIS'ITU.

He Will Not Trust Her
Dear Cjnthia l'e been going with
a young man for about live months. I
want to know why. aftrr going witli
mo so long, that he leally doesn't trust
mo. He doesn't apprme of the good

me, and we are alwajs (uarroling. I

Aio jou engaged to thi-, jouug man,
and has lie theiefnre u right to (iios

foolish to quarrel witli him all the time.
Simply tell him if he dms not like jou

much tbnt people find it bard to trust
jou wIipii jou arc in earnest. It would
lie well to oioreomo that habit. Con

Shall She Keep Friends?
Dear Cjnthia I am writing jou in
hopes of getting some ideas. I am a
joung girl, eighteen jcars of age, and
I am fond of a joung man who lies
quite close to mo. I love him and lie
loves me, but my father has decided to
move to Jersey and he doesn't care for
me to correspond with any one back
here excepting to a few girl friends, but
1 told lilm I would write to this
fricud. M.v father looks ut it this
waj he's goipg in business and thinks
I should leave him aloue because be has
no trade amounting to much. If I
wait until I get up there I might make
a pull with some higher fellow. I am
attractive and cau easily attract a man,
But I care only for one. Do jou ad-
ise me to wait and see how my father's
plans turn out or should I keep my
old friends uud acquaintances?
IIBAItTBItOKBN.
If jou really caic for this man per
suade jour father to allow the friend
ship to keep up remember, a richer
man might not be as good a husband.
It does uot seem as if jou cared
very deeply for the joung man, however,
or jour other friends, for that matter;
it jou did you would not question it.
Be Yourselves
Dear Cynthia Please tell us what to
do, as we are very much heartbroken.
We arc two girls and have been going
with a crowd of fellows we like very
much. I.nst nigbt we wore sitting in

something to the follows that she didn't

; "Cinderella's
Daughter"
By IIAZEL DEVO BATCHELOB
Copvrloht, lite, bu rublto Ltdotr Co,
Virginia West and Kathleen Foster
icerc chums at boarding school and
both girls became engaged at the
same time, Virginia took love seri
ously and in piVc of her mothers
disapproval icus determined io marry
the man ) her choice even though he
vas poor. Kathleen had more worldly
ideas. She liked Dill Lyons, but not
enough to become the tclo of a poor
man, so she broke her engagement.
Virginia was married' and found Ufa
hoi hi( loiiiuiico trith her mother mar
ried and in Japan, and the man of her
choice changed from an ardent lover
to a critical husband,
TUB knowledge that she was to be
come a mother tilled Virginia with
conllictluR emotions. She told Jimmy,
sluly, not knowing how be would feel
about it Hnd bis attitude amazed her.
He caught her up in his arms as if she
hail been u child and fat in the big arm
chair with her. There was worship in
his. eyes and Virginia's heart was tilled
with a great tenderness for bim. She
kissed his stubby boyish balr and felt
awed by his emotion when she biiw
trars in bis eyes.
But when Virginia told Kathleen, the
news was not received in the same way.
Kathleen was horrified.
"A baby!" she exclaimed.
"Yes, isn't it wonderful?" said Vir
ginia wilh shining eyes.
"I think jou're very unfortunate,
Kathleen said lirtnlj-.
To Virginia this attitude came ns n
great Eurprisc; and she showed her
umazemeut in "uer widened eyes.
"Why, you're nothing but a child,"
Kathleen went on indignantly. "Not
nineteen yet, and poor in the bargain,
and then to be tied down with n baby."
Virginia'K eyes blazed.
"Don't you dare, to talk like that."
she flamed. "I think it's the most
beautiful thing that ever happened to
mo. I don't care how poor wc arc!"
Kathleen changed her attitude. "It's
because jou're so young, Virginia; jou
don't understand how it will keep you
tied dowu."
"I cau imagine, and I'm ready for
it."
"And what about Jimmy?"
"He thinks it's the most wonderful
tiling that ever happened."
"Well, that's fine and it's a good
thing jou both feel that way about it."
And Kathleen said nothing more, but
in her own private opinion she decided
! that Virginia was utterly finished so fur
as amounting to anything was con
cerned. Her life would bo a dull rou
tine ft out morning till night. She would
become just like hundreds of other wom
en yho brought up children with their
days built around the' dullest of tasks.
What a chilli Virginia was, and jet no
one could loll her anything. Her na
ture seemed pliable, and yet no one
could influence her to do miylhing she
did not want to do. It had always
keen that way, and jet as Kathleen had
looked back she could not see that Vir
ginia had ever gained by following the
dictates of her conscience.
In the dajs that followed Virginia
learned to sew seams ou line white
cloth, and she was happy. Jimmy was
ery kind to her ntid in the evenings
they were very gay. Virginia loved to
wake up in the morning and to lie still
with half-closed eyes and a brain de
liriously inactive while Jimmy closed
the windows aud puttered about in the
kitchen with a bathrobe wrapped around
him and his feet thrust iuto slippers.
He would bring her n cup of steaming
coffee in bed. and she wiis not allowed
to get up uutil the room was thoroughly
warm. This attention was very gratify
ing and Virginia was very happy.
Their happiness was threatened ono
morning by a letter from Jimmy's moth
er sujing that she was coming to xisit
thorn for a while. Virginia held her
brent h until Jimmy finished reading and
looked up at her. Something in her
ejes must have warned him, or perhaps
intuition made him understand. At any
rate, he wrote his mother that it would
lie impossible just now, us Virginia was
better nlopc. It was the first direct
concession that Jimmy had made where
his mother was concerned and Virgiuin
wii" pathetically grateful. The thought
of Mrs. Andersou taking charge of the
house nnd every one iu it would have
been more than Virginia could bear.

CAROLINE SAYS
ASK FOR ANOTHER DANCE
She Tries So Hard to Make Thorn Do It That She Bores Thcm
With Her Manner She Is Too Eager to Plcaso Them
CAKOMNH wants lo know why it Is
that she cannot make any boy
friends. "I meet lots of them at Ounces,
she tajs, "and they seem to think I
danco well, but they never come back
for a second dance. I alwa try to be
nice to them, and try to talk u lot nnd
bo interesting, but they don't teem to
like me." I'm afraid Caroline's trouble
lies within those seven small words.
"I trv to be nice to them." She tries
too hard. Sho is so vivacious, so talka
tive, so merry, that the bewildered boy
who dnnces with her does not know
what has struck bim. lie probably con
sults other bojs after the dance, "Did
ou dance, with her?"
"Yes, did you?"
"Yes. C.ecl
"I'll say so."
B
Ol'S don't waste any time .trying to
nderstnnd or make allowances.
They bimply dismiss ull thought of
ever trying agaiu. I can imagine Caro
line thinking all the time she is talk
ing to a boy, "Now, I must make him
like me. I miwt bo 'interesting aud
funny. And, oh, jos, I must got him
to talk ubout things that he's in
terested in." And thou she works so
hard, laughs so much, tries to be so
very pleasant, and leaves him bored and
disgusted.
If Caroline would notice the girls
who seem to have lots of boy friends,
she would see how indifferent their at
titude Is. They arc glad to seo the boys,
thev seem lo find plenty to tulk about.
