There's a story told of a man who
ira visiting in New Orleans nnd when
apologies were made because of the
absence of meat, he said, after returning
home: "Sure, New Orleans 'tis the
lott nlace in
tho world to spend the
jenten season, oy gorry. nnn us a real
pleasure, If I must say so meself. to i
d penance by giving up flesh meat.
Sari, and the most delicious dishes a I
man ever tasted are served dally to .
make hlra forget his meat, and 'tis me-
eU that will be seeking a physician's
advice and urge him the need of ray re-
troat to this Creole town, to beguile the

Hcious fish dishes that the dainty
Creole cooks can connive. Sure, 'tis me
that would welcome such a punishment

I also am a girl past 19 -years of bro,

I would like to become acquainted
with Polly, for I, too, am very lone

ship of a nice girl.
"Would like, to hear from Polly again,
also know her name and ndrtress so as
to.be nblo to commiihjcato with her.

As Cvnthia.told Polly, jou may write
to her through tho column, but your

fellow left her nnd has nopr "Written,
nor has sho heard from him In any way.
Every time I go out with her and she
sees any one who reminds her of him.
she gets the blues and spoils the whole
ovemnff.
Now. dear Cynthia, what I want to
know Ih. how can I make her forget this
other follow, as I feel sure ho does not

I don't know "Whether it Is lealoasv
I on my part or not. but when she tnlkH

do. ROBI7KT.
Ihe, other man probably does not care

have treated her so badly.
The next time she gots the blues try

other engagement with her that evening.
Do not call on her for a couple of
weeks, ' absence makes the heart grow

"Southerner" Writes Again
Dear Cynthia Thank you for print
ing my nrtt letter to your column un
der the capt'on: "He's Ag'ln Powder"
That Ib correct' I am ag'ln powder
when It Is aDDlled so thicklv thni it i
only held on by a liberal spread of cold
cream beneath.
There were two answers to my letter.
One was from "Northerner." and I am
rather relieved to find that at least one
girl trusts to healthy exercise rather
than cologne or powder. The
word she used In connection with the
Chestnut street would-be "wamps" (as
a Boston friend of mine calls them).
"Mosqueraders," Is exactly tho right ono
and could not be Improved on.
The other letter wan from "MnHh.m.
cr No. 2," and ho evidently disapproves
or me, much to my Borrow. I will
answer his questions to the best of my
iiouiiy.
As to "man-haters" and "women
haters": Under no circumstances could
any Intelligent or sane person become
either. Your problom Is Interesting
enough but inconclusive. The girl cer
ta'nly would not be Justified In hating
all men Just because one decehed hor.
She would have plenty of reason to de
spise that one man: but that ono only.
If "Northerner No. 2" does not Bee It
that way and If Cynthia exercises un
usual forbearance I will amplify my
theory In another lettor.
Thfo correspondent also thinks that
Cleopatra used cosmetics No doubt I
she wns what the moderns call a
"vamp", but as she was supposed to be
possessed of plenty of brains as well. It
seems Improbable that Ehe used her ar
tificial allurements to excess, foo phe
would appreciate that real men are not
very much attracted by them. Also, one
of the most pitiful of arguments Is
"They were good enough for our ances
tors, why aren't they good enough for
us?" Sperm and- tallow candles were
good enough for our grandfathers but
we have adopted electricity Just the
same.
Tthe southern girls probably do paint
nnd powder Just as much as their
northern sisters, but you had to admit
yourself that you "never particularly
noticed It"
I did state that np one objects to tha
use of a little powder If not obviously
applied and I don't believe that this Is
cpntrad'etpry. The results of the ap
plication do not necessarily hav to Be
"obvious" Ra "Northerner No. 1" seems
to think. They can be almost indistin
guishable, and the latter Is a far fitter.

To Clean Silk Tassels
To the Editor of H'oman'i raoc: ,
Dear Madam Kindly let mo know
through your column how 1 can clean
white silk tassels. I had them on my
white linen shades last winter nnd they
nre very much soiled from handling.
Something that Is safe and will not malco
the Bilk ull porno out. PEGGY.
You coulif clean those tassels with
lukewarm soap and water, drying them,
of course, In the shade so that they
will not yellow. If this method does not
give tho desired effect, use carbon tetra
chloride, which can bo bought nt any
drug store.
Making More Money
Out of "tVorttile" Nuts
They've been iamlllar with the plnon
nut In tho southwestern section of Ute
country for years past, but unt'iim.A
Fannlo S. Spits began to exp rlment
with It. It was believed to be Jtuany
worthiest. The kernel was delicious, but
tho shell was so tough and th ck that
tho labor of getting at the meat fat
outweighed the result of tho trouble.
Then Mrs. Spitz Carno nonff and founo
ed an industry which bids fair to .be
ono of tho stnndbys ot the New Mexico
section. . .. .-
She hnd tasted some of the plnon
nut6 and found the flavor distinctive and
appetizing In tho extreme. So she s-t
to work to Invent homo machinery for
removing the shells with a minimum of
labor. Mm Spitz thought over the prob
lem for six months, and then, one morn
ing, awolo with tiie basic Idea In her
mind. An soon as posBlblo she put to
gether a rough working model to try
out her Idea. It worked In a crudo
way, of course and sho entorcd an
eastern muchlne shop, one woman among
scores of expert machinists, and for
iiiren nml n half months concentrated
I her efforts on tho perfecting of that ma-
cnine. u menni a natrium.- u, vii ."m
homo life. It meant a great many dis
couragements, for lrtually esery one
predicted that her efforts would be
fruitless. But Mrs. Spitz hnd gone Into
It nnd she wouldn't quit. After three
trips across tho continent she came home
with a machlno which" she said would
work, and setting it up In the basement
of her house, proceded to prove het
contention.
Last winter saw 10,000 pounds of tho
shelled nuts paBS through tho "plnon
plant." Every day brought more orders
from enndymnkers and confectioners
throughout the country, now, with the
pinon Industry on a .fairly firm founda
tion. Mrs Spitz la beginning to cash In
I on
on hrr persistence nnd refusal to bo
downed on her determination to make
more money out of a product which
formerly went to waste.
Tomorrow An Artlit In Flowers
Adventures With a Purse
IN THE matter of hats now, Dorothea
approached me the other dny with n
harassed air, and nskcd: "Where Bhnll
I go to look at hats?" With the wis
dom of n wide and vnried experience I
explained to her that unlcsa one enn
afford only one amount, nnd will pay
neither more nor less, the mntter of
finding a hnt Is almost entirely n mat
ter of shopping. "For," I continued,
"the shop that has a hat that pleases
your fancy one time may be utterly
devoid of anything that will suit you
the next time you arc hat hunting,"
And I hard found that this is pretty
true. But do not take ma too liter
ally. Certainly nt some shops there is
a greater possibility of finding just
what one wants than nt others. It Is
of this first kind of shop that I write.
This shop makos a specialty of Eng
lish clothes suits, blouses and hnts.
I was passing by there nnd saw a num
ber of hats marked ot $5. In nnother
section were somo exceedingly smart
models for slightly higher prices. The
hats hnve Just n touch here or a twist
there that Identifies them-ns something
different from tho ordinary run of hats
one sees. So the next time you go Ih
quest of a bonnet try my shop and sec
what you think of It.

Two Minutes

A Toast
QNB of tbe stories that cropped out in the news the other dny would hTf
- made glnd the heart of our old friend Horatio Alger.
It Is that of Harry J. Choucherle, formerly a porter of the Hotel MeAlplu.
New York city, who hns just ncqulred the Bocond of the chain of hoteh he hope
nnd bids fair some day to own. A few months since be leased the first for a
gross annual rental of a Quarter of million dollars.
"Twelve years ago," sajs this former hotel porter nnd present hotel pro
prletor, "I wns earning over $150 a mouth. Thnt was considered pretty gootl
pay for those days. But I vnuted to be a hotel man. I hod such a hankcrinK
for It, it kept me awake nights. So I quit my job and went to work as a por
ter for the Hotel Belmont at 525 n month that left me about 100 bucks monthly
to the worse, I worked there six yearn nnd learned a lot. Then I connected
with the.McAlpin and worked up to be their head porter end chief of transpor
tation service. I was there six years. How did I do it? Why, I wanted like
everything to do It, and I just made up my mind I would. That's about all
there Is to it. A man can never be more than be believes he is nnd tries to be
I unnted a hotel of my own, nnd I knew I could work up to it. Now I have
one I have two. And I'm not going to stop here."
It Is not difficult to account for 'Chouchcrle's success. His career lllus
tratcs two principles:
First: Decide what you want nnd how to get it.
Second: do nhead and do it, no matter what the cost.
Harry Chouchcric is a first-rate representative of the so-called capitalistic
class in our good old U. S. A.
He is not a giant of commerce. He is not a captain of Industry. He i not
even a "big" business man not yet.
He Is simply nn earnest, hard-working, Bcrious-mlnded man, who knew
what he wanted, started in the ranks, did the best he knew how, absorbed every
thing there was to be known nbout his business and then took the plunge on
his own, all the time overcoming obstacles which seem commonplace enough,
but -whii'h call for nil a real man's nerve nnd grit and stamina.
Today he has attained to a modest working independence which assure
him nnd his nil of the necessities of life, and nil of the luxuries any reasonable
man ought to want.
Which illustrates fnrthjr that n lot of punk bunk is moro than nlne-tenthi
of the parboiled palaver going the rounds nbout tbe monacc of capltallam.
A good many of us tho moment we hear the word capital or capitalist imme
diately become antagonistic.
Wc Instantly conjure a greedy, conscienceless, bloated corporation head
who sits solidlly on the rest of us and keeps squeezing. Our conception Is ven
much "off."
Capital is anything that is useful.
Skill, learning, reputation, friends, ambition nnd good will as well as monev
nre capital.
And, very happily, those things which arc the mort useful are the common
capital nnd resources of practically every single one of us. These are health,
sense, grit nnd time to learn and do.
We are all capitalists capitalists of the first water.
Therefore, Instead of picturing to yourself a capitalist forbidding, in
satiable predatory power that keeps mulcting till we ore dry and then some
thlnk of him as Harry Choucherle, making up his mind to what he wants to
do, giving up n good position for that of a monial at bare bed nnd board, learn
ing and laying by experience and lucre till he feels tho time is ripe, then hanging
out his shingle-nnd making good, nnd giving a Job and opportunity to many
And you will be n couple of million miles nearer the truth.
Anyway, here's to the man who is game enough to sacrifice a "food thing
for what he hankers to do, who works, absorbs, aaves, denies and sticks, all the
while keeping his eye on the ball, till he realizes the universal dream rf being
one h own boss.
nc wins success in about tho best way possible he deserves it.
right now Is well aware that a woman
is hardly considered to be perfectly
dressed unless sh havo a ribbon or
chain about her neck. Now, if it is a
