She Favors Politeness Dear Cynthia In answer to the ic qucst of a certain reader, "N. Y, S.." concerning the plausibility of "smack ing fellows iu tho face," my candid opinion is that it is wholly unwar ranted and does not conform to the laws of good conduct. A gentleman wouldn't give cause either bv word or action to experience "a smack iu the face." But, on the other hand, a gentle and icfincd woman would not resort to the ex tremes of resentment in such a manner. Personally, I do not think ,mnch of a man vvho would excito the tender feel ings of a woman and so cause her to retaliate in an unladylike fashion. But women out of respect and deference to themselves, in my humble opinion, can easily find a way out of an exasperating situation without bravado. In the long run politeness and discretion conquer all things. M. L. F. N. N. Answers Dear Cynthia Would jou kindly give,, my answer to Conshohockcn? Conshohocl.cn I nm very glad to hear that jou agree with me in my points, except that one. it might be all right to have your friend in jour parlor when your parents are in bed, but I don'tj agree with you, I will leave that question to Cynthia or to some renders. Now jou doubt that I am a gentleman. I am a perfect gentleman and have it. That might not be right, but thnt respect for every person vvho deserves is my way. P. N. N. You ore quite right, F. N. N. ; it is not n good plan to receive visitors, after one's family has retired. What Shall She Do? Dear Cynthia Is it perfectly pioper for a young lady to ask a joung man to take her to a dance, the young lady having purchased the tickets from the club of which she is a member? At n formal club dance should both par tics wear evening dress? How could a written invitation to said dance be worded? THANK YOU. Quite proper under such circum stances. Both should wear evening'drcss. Write a little informal note, askin; the .voung man if he enn go with you and telling him what time to come for jou. Another Shot at EJuek Private Dear Cynthia I beg this opportunity to answer the letter of "Sophie D." where she makes the statement that n girl closes her eyes when she is being kissed the same as she might do when she smells a delicious perfume. I just had a hunch that maybe "Buck Pri vate" uses perfume or perhaps bando line or some of those exquisitely scented face preparations which one sees ad vertised in the cut-rate ads. My real opinion of the matter is that some 'smart oung lad just wrote that article ito tec if ho could get a lisc out of some of jour readers, for I am iurc no per son in his right senses would ask you such an absurd question, "Sengas' " I letter can't expect to receive much more than a laugh fiom this source, for I am sure that kissing business with her eyes closed is all "hull." It sounds to me thnt she is either extremely soft or is trjing to appenr very coy. I hope jou will excuse my sarcasm and any rash statements that I might have made, Cynthia, but they are my Sincere thoughts. MONDAIN.

It looks all right for now." But, of course, she didn't fix It up. She waited so long' for tomorrow or home time that somo one clso got tired of looking at it nml fixed it herself. What was it? Oh, Marian's messy bureau drawer or tho threads nnd pieces that she had been throwing on the floor in the sewing room, or a stain on her skirt, or n hole in her stocking, or the greasy, sticky pans in which she had been making fudge. It really doesn't make any difference what it was j no matter how badly it needed fixing, Marian would always be able to "see the bright side of It," nnd decide that tomorrow or some time would be soon enough to fix it. Marian's friends envy her, some limes. "Oh, wouldn't it bo great to take life as easily ng Marian docs?" they sigh, "Never worry about keeping things neat, or remembering where things arc, or cleaning up anything or anything." It would be n relief to take life with as little worry as that that is, tho disagreeable things of life. Rut what about the pleasant things? Do wc want to take them easily, too? Marian does. She goes to a 6bow that everybody has been talking about. "Oh, well," she concedes, "I've seen worse." All the other girls have a "perfectly marvelous time" at n party. "Oh, weil," Marian remarks, indiffer ently, "I wouldn't rave over it." Her pleasures slide past her as easily as her troubles do. She has never exerted herself to reach out and stop a few of theSdutles nnd obligations, because she didn't want to be bothered. But now enjoyment and interest have caught the Adventures . With a Purse rnOAST crisp, brown, piping hot! a - dab of butter and n spoonful of lus cious marmalade! Well, there's no use talking, it takes real toast to make a good breakfast and it's always a wel comed dish for afternoon ten. And here's a toaster to use over a gas range it's a sort of metal plate with holes in it and wire racks that fold down flat when not in use. You can mnkc four pieces of toast nt one time. You'll find it worth many times over the reasonable price, thirty-five cents. If you're thinking of buying a clock for your living room and somehow to me, a living room without the friendly face and cheerful ticking of a dependable timepiece seems not quite alive! wouldn t you like one with hands "id numerals of radium? Aside from this advantage, the clock I nm speaking of is of an especially attractive design, simple and good, with mahogany finish. And the price is reasonable $5.50.
