THE housewife 1 like tin Saxon
term very much. The word "wife"
meant) wenvcr. therefmo the lious.oife
or liousewcuver. in the ilcen sene of
the word, menus the waver of tin
home nnd fortune. This. I renllv be
lieve, is u soman's place and peAver.
The cheerful housewife hoc spiriti
arc not affected by little disappoint
ments wet days or other discourage
incnts and who cheerfully strives to
send forth men and womeu from her
liousehold who are able to eopc with
the world, is reullj nccomiilMiiiij; won
derful work
Housewifely pride in preparing at
tractive and nalat.ible food should l'f
the mission of everv woman. Do not
Kesitate to bovcott the high-priced and,
oxnensive fcioils. rutlier nrenarc the low
"ost foods in such a manner that the
family will prefer them to those that
J'OU taboo because of their excessive
price.
Now the real housewife must know
that if she ii to feed her family ef
ficiently she must bake good, palatable
hread, pastries, cakes, etc., and not de
pend upon the delicatessen shops to
pJipply her with relishes and salads.
These shops were intended for thoc
people who, because of emplojnient or
other living facilities, could not prepare
wore than u not of tea or coffee.
'For you, Mrs. Housewife, with ur
cheery, sunny kitchen and its rows of
shining utensils, these shops should
hold no charm. Then, too, the pur
chasing of foods that are already pre
pared is expensive and does not help
to cut down the high cost of living.

ALL RUFFLED AND
READY FOR DANCE
'1 lie color is light blue, except for
the sash and the roses, which are '
corn color. TalTet.i makes the perky
little ruflles stand out in their com
placent way
A Daily Fashion Talk by Florence Kosc
DID it ever occur to you that ruffles
aie distinctly occidental and dis
tinctly modern? They teem to beloug ,
to the last two centuries of our ro,
tumery. You can't imagine a Venus
de Milo in a rufflnl ehitnu or a Homan
matron in beruHled draperies. You may
look aud look in vain through the pic
ture galleries for ruflles on the clothes
of the women of the Middle Ages or the
itennissunee. Jo be sure, m tne later
period material began to be frilled and
Uuted and perhaps that was where the
ruffle idea came from. And. of course,
the verj idea ot a Japanese kimono or a
Chinese trouser costume with rtilflVs i
preposterous.
And lately wo have been taking om
inspiration from the Middle Ages and
from the Orient. Aud that may be
why we have had so few ruffles. But
when we come to revive Pompadour
fashions from old-time Prance or seek
for inspiration the costumes that were
worn bv the fine ladies of mid-Victorian
days then we come to ruffles. And ap
parently it is In that direction that
the pendulum of fashions is swingiug.
If we have bouffant hips and nu ex
tended skirt silhouette generally, if vve
are to have u titted waist line, then it
follows that we shall icvtve frilliugs
aud tlutings and ruffles.
Iu the .iketeh bhowu today I am giv
ing you an idea of such n charming
little light blue frock thnt I saw re
cently in tlie wardrobe of a young wom
un who was going south for the ro
nittlndiT of the cold weather. It was
decidedly mid Victorian, with its little
upturned ruffles ou the bodice that is
cut higher at the front than on the
shoulders. The ouly touch of color con -slsted
of the sash aud the roses at Uie
belt, both ot which were of corn yellow.

"Cinderella's
Daughter"
By IIAZKL DKTO UATCHELOK
CopirloM, IDtt, bii JuM(a Ledger Co.
SYNOPSIS
.If boarding school the paths of
Virginia West and Kathleen Foster
merged and then divided, VirpliiiH
married o ;ioor innii ii( Kathleen
broke her engagement to a poor man.
Immediately Virginia began to meet
pioblcms while Kathleen's life was
entirely pee of worry. Voverty and
the sordid problems of life lost Vir
ginia many of her illusions. Her
mother married again and went to
Japan and Virginia had no one to
turn to but Jimmy's mother, who did
vol- understand the girl at all. Then
came Jimmy's illness and death and
the birth of the baby. At first Vir
ginia was prostrated under cverythiny,
but slowly thnt magical something
that was youth began to slir in her.
and she decided that life was ot over
after all.
IT came to Virginia in the Light with
a sudden burning conviction that
there was just one thing thnt she could
do and that was act. The thought
of going on the stage lillcd her with de
licious fear. fc?Iic knew nothing about it
save through stories she had read, but
she realized that she was without talent
in any oilier lino, aud that there was u
chance of rnukiug good in this one wav,
All night she tossed from side to side
and turned the matter over in her mind
and by morning she was convinced thai
she ought to try to see what she could
do. !
At breakfast she seemed to have more
determination and tirmncss about her
than usual. Mr. Anderson finished bis
second cup of coffee and was about to
go to his study when Virginia stopped
him. "I want to tell jou and Mother
something," she begau.
He dropped back iu his chair.
Virginia's announcement that she
was going to the city to look for a job
was received in stony silence by Mrs.
Anderson, who had more or less expect
ed something of the kind.
"And what do you propose to do with
Harhara?" she asked abruptl.v.
"I was coming lo that. I thought
that perhaps you would keep her just
until I got settled. I can take care of
her after that."
"But, my dear," expostulated Mr.
Anderson, mildly . lie did everything
mildly. His entire outlook on. life
' was tentative, and although he did
not know it. everj thing he did was gov-
1 erued anil held iu check by his more
I positive wife, who nlwnvs planned be-'
forehand just what he should do. Mv
dear, what do jou propose doing?
You've never worked. It seems like a
risk that jou oughtn't to take. You're
very joung, you know."
"But I can't stav down here for the
rest of my life," Virginia protested. "I
want to live. I must get away."
"Some people arc mude t be sacri
ficed, my dear," said Mr. Anderson.
"Perhaps it's jour dut.v to stay here.
You could be a great help to Mother."
"Not if I couldn't be happy," Vir
ginia insisted. "Oh, please try to un
derstand," Something in the intensity of
the remark awoke a long-lost dream iu
the heart of Mr. Anderson. Once he
had been joung, with all of life before
him, with tierce dreams and tierce long
ings smoldering in his heart. Life
hud changed him sadly and he had
become weak aud easy-goiug. but once
he hadbecn as determined us Virginia
was tills moment.
"Well, Mother," he said, turning
to Mrs. Anderson, "I guess v.e'11 have
to let the child have her way. You'ie
a woman, Virginia," he said, turning to
the girl, "and jou must do whatever
vou think best." Unconsciously he
squared his shoulders nnd held them
more erect as he walked off to his of
fice, leaving Mrs. Anderson staring
after him iu amazement.
Virginia wrote that very daj to Bill
I.jous. She told him that she was de
termined zo get work, nnd thnt she had
an idea of something she could do. She
sked him if ho would get her a place
vherc she could stay, aud Bill answcied
her letter immediately, promising his
help. He met Virginia at the train and
with him was n tall, -very smartly
dressed j'oung woman. She had a small
hat which came down over her eves
and a tycuvily dotted veil, and Virginia
did not know that it was Kathleen uu
til she was kissed lightly and caught
the fragrance of the delicate French
perfume that hung about Kathleen nl
wa.vs. Then quite suddenly aud in
eougruouslj Virginia felt shabbj. Her
bluo suit was smartly tailored, but it
had been djed black and somehow Vir
ginia did not feel comfortable in it.
She felt travel-wear, too. and there
was a freshness about Kathleen that
smacked of scented baths, the confi
dence born of silkeu lingerie, and care
ful grooming of one's entire appear
ance. "I just made Bill bring me." Kath
leen was bubbling delightfully.
Bill had grasped Virginia's bag and
caught both her hands for a moment
in a strung, comforting clasp. She
looked uii into hib very blue ejes and
they were full of protection. But vague
ly she wished that he had come for her
alone. Why was it that at every turn
of her life Kathleen seemed to appear
1 aud to play an important part?
(Monday Virginia starts her guest.)

Certainly, Speak to Him
Dear Cynthia I am a joung girl. A.
few mouths ago I met a fellow who iu
his bilent. quiet way made mo cure for
him. I have met many fellows, but
he is the ouly one that I really care
for. He is quite u good-looking chap,
very neat in appearance. One of my
dearest 'girl friends told me that he said
something about me. Ho really did
seem to care for me. After that time I
never even spoke or looked at him. He
is also a ery stubborn boy, and, as
ho once gave me the satisfaction of
speaking first, he won't do it agaiu.
Even though I am angry at him, I still
cure for him. Do you think, dear
Cvnthin, that it is proper for me to
speak to him? DATtDANELLA.
Certainly, speak to him und apologize
for jour behavior.
Why you girls aud boys listen to tales
about each other from a third person,
und act on these stories, is very hard
to understand.
No matter how dear this girl friend
is the boy bus a right to a fair judg
ment from jou until U is proved thut he
said the things the says he did.
He Was Not True
rie.ir rvnthin I'm u girl of eighteen,
can keep house ns good as any of our
mothers can, am a brunette, only use
n Utile nnwilor when I think it ntces-
sar.v : no rouge of any kind. I am living
in the country. So you see, dear read
er Tm insl n nlain. old-fushioned
country girl. Now when I read Alpina's
let lee mv heart sank down to my sliees,
fe tin snirl "I want my ideal girl to
have clean, unkissed lips." Do not judgo
me too harshly aud please give me some
advice place joursclf in my position
and see what you .vould do as you read
my story.
I was keeping company for two years
with a young man twenty years old,
whom I thought a gentleman. He
proposed nnd I accepted, so wc were en
gaged, which gave him the privilege to
kiss me whenever he chose, which he
did. I was desperately in love with
Jim, but lie didn't love me and I didn't
know, for he called upon me whenever
be could.
I was true to Jimmie. I never went
out with any one else. I never was kissed
bv or kissed any man except Jim. One
nieht
Jim said he wished Ins lips were
n elean ns mine (for lie kissed "billions
--' . . . - . .... . ...... ....
of girls), l tnlcimm to lorgec i lie past,
nnd live in the future, vv ell, lie did. llu nevcr B0CS out ut ujgut except on a
for he stopped culling and vent nroutid Saturduy, when he goes to a moving
with other girls, and now he is going ,,jcturc show nlonc. He knowb a few
around with one steady, so I gave him Biris nua has beeu out with them to a
his ring buck and told him never to call I f.noWi anj ije treats them like the
ugain. .Mirr j uo not. juuge an men
alike, for I trust the Lord has a mate
somewhere for rac who is worthy of me
What worries me is those kisses, but I
won't make that mistake again. I will
learn their ways better, but wc all
know experience is severe teacher.
Alpina, what would jou do should you
meet a girl in this case? Well, my love
turned to hate and I regret every kiss
be took. i
BLACK-EYED BILLIE.
You have nothing to regret, dear.
You intended to marry this man, who
had asked you to do so. Because be
was not true to you is no reason why you t
slioulu grieve over your uaving nuoweu ,
him to kiss you. Just forget it and never
have anything further to do with him. j
To "Orlean" '
It seems to Cynthia that a young
woman should rather take it as a com-1
pliment than otherwise if n man wants
to talis to ner anu spend an evening
with her, rather than go out to a show. I
It proves that the woman i attractive
and charming in uerself. Of course it,
would be nice to go out once in a while, '
nnd it would be a simple enough thing to i
bring it about if you are tactful.
Of the Plays of Today
Dear Cynthia I am writing in exit- f

T may bay in this letter, for surely no

vaudeville and burlesque, but also of the

with a trine less coldness, it. is true,
but with its veneer covering very, very

of Many Things to Cynthia
Would the Readers
Have Done the Same?
Dear Cynthia I am not nineteen
years old. My friend is two years
my scuior. Wo passed a group of
fellows on a comer. They begau
to whistle at us. My friend told mo
to go on, and he went back and
started a fight. Do jou think he
did right? E. B.
rassed by the "sinuttj-" suggestion so
provulent iu our twentieth - century
theatres.
Hus the mind of the theatre-goer so
degenerated that it can no longer accept
the pure, the innocent, the simple
thought contained in our old English
miracle plays and their subscqucuts, the
masques and interludes? Can it be sat
isfied only with plots iusluuative of all
thut is unwholesome und immoral? I
do not claim that our playwrights should
model their productions after anything
so old-fushioned bh the masques and
interludes, but I do maintain that the
thought could be kept as lresh and pure
in a modern, up-to-date betting as it
was In those days befoic those old
plays became victims of buggebtive con
ception. I am inclined to give the theatregoer
the benefit of the doubt and firmly be
lieve that good, pure und wholesome
production isjnet with more true enthu
siasm thau the impure one. Am I
right? JAPHKI.
She Is Lonesome, Too
Dear Cynthia I am a young girl
about twenty years old and not bad

somehow I seem always to be lonely.

again. What seems to bo wrong? Is it
because he docs not caro for dancing?
Ho says that if he can't get a girl to
go out with him because he cun't dance
he will not bother with them at nil.
And he swears that he will never
dance. Ho would like to get a girl who
doesn't care for dancing, as he says that
is all the girls now care for. I can't
seem to understand why such u tine
joung man can't get n girl to go out
steady with him. They will go with
him once, but thnt is all, and ho is a
gentleman and treats a young girl with
respect. He certainly would make' u
model husband 'for some nice girl.
E. J. J.
It would seem to be the young man's
own fault since ho does not persevcro
iu asking the girls to go out with him.
But why do the girls have to be taken
out? Why can he not call on tbcm and
spend an evening at their hoae. ?
Girls who aro unwilling to t tertain
their men friends at their homes arc not
worth cultivating. This constant run
ning out at night is a mistake.
Another1 thing, let him have many
friends among the girls. It would be
strange if a girl must consent to go out
only with one special mab after having
only been once with him.
Why Don't They Dance With Them?
Dear Cynthia We arc two young
girls, sixteen and seventeen years old :
ordinary Americans. We are both good
dancers, having taken lessons from one
of the well-known professors teaching
in the city. The other night wo at
tended a dance at ouq of the balls given
for tho benefit of a society.- Now wo
sat there all night, as wc hadu't brought
any of our own boy friends. As wc do
not look babyish, can you or any of tho
readers of your column tell why the
fellows danced with the sumo girls all
evening?
BROWN EYES AND BLACK EYES.
Did you know any of these boys who
did not dance with you?
It is never wise for two girls to go
to a benefit dance without a chaperon
and some men to dance with. Benefit
affairs are apt to have an audience of
various uges and every oue goes in his
or her own little clique, therefore tho
boys who go with the girls to these
dances or affairs feel obliged to stay
with them, even if there are other
friends ot theirs iu the room.
You've Worried Her, "Dan B."
Dear Cynthia Through a misunder
standing I have lost a dear friend. I
thought Dun B. might bo he, so I au
bwered his letter containing the poem,
"To Oue Who Has Forgotten."
He thinks me some giddy young thing
without brains. I am troubled. I have
wounded and been wounded.
Let me ask Dan B. a few questions
in your valued paper.
I don't want to tight. Why use the
word combat? Is Dan B. a nom de
plume? What is u live wire, a good
salesman or a returned spirit? Who
are members of the suappy organization?
Why can't you fathom mv letter? la it

Rupert Hughes's "The Unpardonable
Sin"?

KEEPING .DISAPPOINTMENTS '.
ENTIRELY TO OURSEL VES

THERE was gloom throughout the
whole household. Tho dinucr table
was a thing of horror. Voices were
involuntarily lowered nnd conversation
vyas stilted and quiet. Something
seemed to bo all wrong." And so it
was, for .Toscphlne. the daughter of the
house, had been disappointed.
A friend had been expected to spend
tho week-end with her. At the last
minuto tho friend had telegraphed to
say that she could not come. Aud then
the situation suggested that line from
Tennyson's poem on tho death ,ot
Elaine: "And that day there was dole
in Astolat!" The family -extended con
dolences, and offered consolations. But
it was all iu vain. There was a certain
course of gloom and Belf-nlty which
must bo allowed to run. Tha family
understood this, because they had been
through disappointments with Joseph
ine before.
Her tioublo was not thnt she
mourned and niadt herself disagreeable
conmlainlre over it. No. indeed : thnt
would be easy to bear; but Josephine's
idea or ruiiiug disappointment "like u

nothing about it, and simply be silent.
She was in the right track, but she
was not traveling in the right direc

quietly within her own heart, no mat

oh, bo obvious appeal for sympathy and
pity destroyed all its value.

Her Fur Files
To the Editor of Woman's Page :
Dear Madam I would like to know
what is good to slop fur from falling
out? Every time 1 wear it, it gets my
clothes full of fur; it is an expensive
one. D, S.
There must be moths in the fur. Tho
only way to stop it from falling is
to take it to a furrier und have the
moths baked out. As long us they arc
ju it the fur will fly.
Turkish Dress
Trousers are being discarded by Turk
ish women and girls in favor of the
American one-piece dress.
Miss Elsie Tanner, of New York,
Young Women's Christian Association
worker with the American relict (mis
sion iu tho Near East, is authority for
the statement. Miss Tanner is ono of
the directors of a home for Armenian
girls who have been rescued from Turk
ish harems in Harpoot, Turkey.
After the girls have been In the
Rescue Home for one month they arc
given cloth enough for u dress. Miss
Tanner has reported to Y. W. C. A.
headquarters in New York that recently
seventy -five girls were given enough
cloth for. a dress and for underclothes,
nnd that they were ull busy sewing.
A tailor had been found to cut out the
dresses from an American pattern for a
one-piece dress. These, will be worn
in place of the Turkish trousers of va
riegated hue now worn by tho women.
The women in these homes range from
fourteen to thirty-five years of age. Miss
Tanner says. They came originally
from the villnges nnd many of them
havo been brides of Turkish boldicrs,
while others have been servants aud
have worked very hard.
