Through a Woman's Eyes
Hy JEAN
Fibbing
"What he doesn't know won't hurt
him." explained a foolish mother in
fill aBidc to me when she had instructed
her small daughter, "Now remember.
if father asks you, jou don't know."
In the so-called big things, this
woman is honest enough with her hus
band. She does not go through his
'pockets nt night nor would she deceive
him in anything that seems to her to
have a direct bearing nn his happiness.
But in the little things she appar
ently feels that it is her privilege to
get her own way by hook or crook, if
necessary by lies and petty deceptions.
In which she does not hesitate to en
list tho aid of her children.
Yes, according to licr lights she is a
food wife. Yet she Is doing her nus
band tho greatest possible injury, com
mitting against him the greatest of
crimes. For when she teaches his
children to "fib" to him, she is build
ing n barrier between him and them for
all the years of their lives.
Little children who "fib" to their
father make big children that lie to
him. And conniving with their mother
to deceive him makes them regard him
as an alien, In whom it would be folly to
confide. Many a beuutifu comradeship

OPTIMISTIC.
Pay Her Back First
Dear Cynthia Yon have hvlneil so
innny ueopla in your column that I
thought I would write to you and see if
you nnd your kind readers could help
me. nn I believe I have a very unusunl
caso. Hrlellly It Is this:
I nm a younp mnn of twenty-one, n
very neat dresser, and In brief present
a neat appearance, and have seen nil
thoro la to see. I have traveled nil'
over the United States nnd have had my
upsnnd-downs and have been "through
tlio mill." I-ast Hummer I met n little
girl at n seashore resort. A month
previous to that l lost several thousands
of dollars in New York City, and, to
mnko it short, alio virtually loaned m
small sums of tnonoy and got meals for
me from her own homo for a period of
six moiithu. Xow, Cynthia, 1 know that
I was absolutely wrong In accepting1
money fiom her. but whnt could I do'
I havo nlwaya had vory largo minis of
rnoi.jy, but I had to take ndvantngo of
her good-henrtcdness or starve. My par
ents aro In very poor circumstances, but
I alwnys sent money homo to them
(that Is, when I had It). I am noted
for being a big sport, havo owned sev
eral autos In my day, otc. Hut to get
back to my story. She also met a friend
of mlno about this time nnd did tho
samo thing for him, and I could seo
that sho Is hend-over-hecls In lcrve with
him. Now, this youiiR Inay is very
wealthy and her mother owns several
car3 and Is very well fixed. Now mv
most Important question Is this: I adore
this girl and would do anything In tho
world for her, but I cannot fnco her
mother, as she knows what her daugh
ter did for me
I w.is In a position to repay her Inst
winter, but as sho goes to a boarding
school I could not get In touch with
her Now, the vital question is, I would
like to mnrry her but 1 nm of Jewish
faith and sho is of the Catholic faith.
Xow, do jou think wo could get along"
I think she cares for me and could for
get my boy friend, whom she lovea, in
time , but sho has every thing In the
world that money can buy, and I have
hardly anything, but I would glvo up
my s, orttng life and stop posing around
tho hotels if I were sure I could get
along with her If wo were married. I
think lellglon is the main fnctor, but. as
every ono savs "It can't bo did" (Jew
ish vh Catholic) I think It could. Now
what Is your version .' 1 think I havo
explained everything as well ns I can,
and hoping you will publish this and
that I will eto some answer to mv 1 'ee
dlcament. MITI.TI.
In tho first plnce. pny back every cent
you owe tho girl before you do anything
else. If you could not get in touch with
her surely you could havo sent her a
check or a money order
Mixed marriages aro seldom happy
If you want to many a Catholic you
must be willlrg to be married by a
Catholic priest and promise that any
children of tho marrlago bo brought up
In that faith Also, you must promise
neer to Interfere In tlio wife's practice
of her religion

Icy lips are thin lips
At tho center, this thinness indicates
the oxact opposite of full lips. That Is
to sny, it indicates smull capneity for
conjugal lovo and Httlo desire for it.
But thin lips indicate a good bit more
than this, where the thinness extends
the entire width of the lips.
They tell a story of solf-eontrol nnd
self-repression. They nre tho lips of tho
zealot who for nn ideal deprives himself
readily of creature comforts of every de
bcription. possibly in somo measure bo
cutibo of his desire for creature comforts
Is not so great as that of the average
person.
Icy-lipped people are generally precise
and accurnto in their nctions and in
thalr judgments, providing you find
other indications which tell of the nec
essary mental ability to go wffli this.
Another of their virtues is that they
arc Industrious, canny and have a tend
ency toward extrcmu nnd exact econo
mics In whatever they undertake. Ab
"efficiency experts" tliey have just the
right temperament.
You may look to them for a high senbo
of justice, amiability, good will, and for

Mr. Pieman Itolls Them
jWTK. Pll'MAN laughed so hard as
'-'- he looked at Jack nnd .Tnnet that
the tears rolled out of his eyes nnd
splashed among his mud pics.
Ill ! Ill I III 1" ho yelled. "You nro the
tho queerest roly-poly crcnturcs I ever
have seen." He held n shining pan up
in front of Jack nnd Janet, so they
could seo themselves. And when they
looked Into it, they agreed that in be
coming as bhort ns dolls and us roly
poly us toy "balloons they hnd grown
very odd-looking.
"You can't get through the door, and
will miss the Toyvlllo fancy dress
party tonight, unless you get thinner."
said Mr. Pieman.
"Mnybe I can fix them," snld Bob
by Bouncer. "I made them short and
roly-poly, I'll try to mnku them thin,"
Bobby Bouncer gave n hop und n
bounce und bounded into Jack's fat
stomach. "Woof!" grunted Jack, the
wind knocked out of him. But the
bump didn't mnko him n bit thinner.
It just knocked the fat more to one
side nnd mndo him crooked.
Bobby Bouncer bounded Into Janet
the bnme way, with just the same dis
appointing effect. Ho only made her
fat and crooked instead of fut and
round.
"I can't help them," wild Bobby
Bouncer. "What shnll wo do now?
".Mnybe I can trim them down a
on, sum .ur. l-icmnn, ns 110 seized tn
knife he ubed In trimming the edges of
his pies. He grabbed Janet, but nt tho
same moment Jack seized his hand.
"Don't you duro hurt Janet," said
Jnck firmly.
"III! Hi! ill!" laughed Mr. ricman.
"I wns only fooling you. I'm not go
ing to cut you thin. I'm going to roll
you thin, llko your mother rolls pie
crust."
At thnt promise Jnck and Janet felt
better. They climbed upon tho tnble
and prepared to bo rolled. Mr. Pieman
got his rolling pin nnd ho rolled and
rolled them. Strnngo to say, it didn't
hurt a bit. It just tickled in a pleas
ant sort of way.
Mr. Pieman rolled and rolled, until
they wero no longer roly-poly, but nice
and slender.
"Now j'ou enn go to the Toyvlllo
fancy dress bnll," said Mr. Pieman.
"They cun If they earn nn Invita
tion," grinned Bobby Bouncer.
"To uo sure they will have tn earn
nn invitation, but Unit should be easy
for n kind-hearted boy and girl," said
Mr. Pieman.
"How can we earn nn invltntlon?"
nskod Jack.
"You will have to go back home and
find out," replied Mr. Pieman. "But
to inako It easy for you to return here
when you have earned your Invitation,
I will give you ouch a key to the secret
door in tho garden, and a magic cookie
so you make yourselves ns small as you
aro now. You had better hurry home,
for tho bnll Is tonight, nnd you haven't
much timo left to eurn your invita
tion." With that Mr. Pieman gave each of
them a llttlu cracker key und a cookie,
and offered them a pleco of pie to cat.
No sooner hnd their teeth touched tho
pie, thnn they found themselves lying
on the luwn nt homo, looking up nt
Bobby Bouncer perched in the tree.
They felt ns If they hud been usleep.
"I low shall wo earn nn invitation to
tho Toyvlllo fancy dress ball?" whis
pered Jnnet to JacK.
Tliut wns a problem. How they
solved it will bu told in next week's
story.

Each Person Puts a Different Value Upon I'hings.TL
SHE hnd taken tho greatest pnins to
mnke the green necklace which
everybody thought wns ho lovely.
Tlio first timo she wore It to work nt
the factory she 'almost stopped work
for n few minutes while everybody took
a look at her decoration.
For several .daya she enjoyed the dis
tinction of being tho most dressy one
In the room.
Then, leaving In a hurry one day, she
forgot it.
She had been hot late In the after
noon and had taken it off and laid it
on the tabic, In front of her.
Later sho had taken off her glasses to
wlpo her eyes nnd forehead, and had
laid them bcsldo the necklace.
Just then, ns she sat there resting
for a second, the closing gong sounded,
and In hasty relief she hurried up nnd
went out, forgetting her "vnlunblcg."
Next morning she was In a great
state, looking for them, but n friend
had looked out for her.
"X. picked them up," she said, "and
looked for you, but you'd gone. I
didn't wnnt j'ou. to lose that necklace,
so I put it in n pleco of paper and
stuck it in my bag. Here it Is I"
"But ivhcro arc my glasses? That's
whnt I wnnt, my glasses, I don't care
so much nbout tho necklace I"
Tho thing that her friend would have
prized most was less vnluable to her
thnu n very prosaic article.
YOU never can tell just whnt pos
session another person is going to
voluo most.
Tho piece of jewelry that seems to
you to be most desirable mny be noth
ing but n pin to hold her collar on to
the girl who lives down the street.
And the piece of literature tlint is
just n book to you may bo her most
prized treasure.
Thcodoia Caldtcell has become en
gaged tn Jimmy Bland, and, to her
surprise, is not happy over it, She
tells her employer, Ilichard BlaUcslce,
that she Is leavinp In order to be mar
ried, and he refuses to let her go.
They have a battle of tcords and
Thco apparently wins out.
CHAPTER VI
A Desperate Plan
JIMMY had dovcloped a jealous streak
that did not augur well for the
future. Now that he had made tip his
mind to the fact that he wanted Then
to leave the office bo did not bee any
reason for delay.
"Why didn't you tell him you were
going to leavo nt once?" he asked.
"Because It wouldn't be fair," Thco
had responded quickly.
"I hate to think of you in an office
where other men enn look nt you and
eye you In a way that would mnko mo
furious If I saw it," Jimmy insisted.
"You're too good-looking to bo in a
public place of any kind."
Theo was on the point of calling him
Inconsistent, but she know It would
onlv lead to nn nrgument, nnd she re
frained. She felt guilty because sho
was giving more thought to Mr. Blokes
lee and his affairs than she was to her
own, nnd there wns ono fact that wor
licd her lUchard BInkesleo hnd tnkon
no steps to obtain nnothcr secretary.
Onco Theo hnd bronched the subject
to him, but he hnd Ignored It nnd the
time wns drawing very short. In a
few days she would be leaving tho office
for good.
The plans for tho trip were moving
along, but Thco could not discover Just
when Mr. Blnkcslee had decided to
leavo. It was the first time since she
had been with him that Theo hadn't
known nil his moves, and this fact
vnguely troubled her, for it made her
realize that after nil sho had counted
for very little In tho office.
And then one nfternoon, Just ns she
was putting on her hat and cont
preparatory to leaving, Mr. Blakcslee
came out of the inner office, his hat
in his hand and a light coat flung over
his arm.
"Oh, Miss Caldwell, how would you
like to come down and look over the
yacht? We're leaving in a couple of
days now, und it will be your Inst
chnnce to pee It."
He spoke kindly, nlmost genially, nnd
Theo hesitated. Sho wnnted to go ter
ribly, but she had promised to have
dinner with Jimmy nt a tnblo d'hote
restaurnnt, nnd he would be furious If
she kept him waiting. Then she sud
denly made up her mind and spoke
nulcklv.
"I hnvc an engogement, but if
you d just wnit while l telephone,
BInkeslee nodded, and Thco flow into
the next room. In a moment she hnd
Jimmy on the wire nnd wns explain
ing to him. Ho responded with re
proaches thnt finally lnpscd Into a sulky
silence. With n sigh Thoo realized that
she would have to listen to a long lec
ture afterward, but sho was too ex
cited to cure. Sho would have all the
timo In the world to make it up to
Jlmmv afterward, and just these, few
moments to seo the BInkesleo yacht. Hhe
simply couldn t afford to miss it I I3ven
when Jlmmv slammed tlio receiver on
tho hook without saying good -by, Thco
was conscious only of the fact that Bhe
wns free to go, and she hurried back
to BInkeslee, all eager enthusiasm.
They went down in n taxi, and dur
ing tho entire trip Blakcslee took not
tho slightest notico of her. Ho treated
her ns ho hnd always treated her In
tho office, as though he wero hardly
aware of her presence, nnd when they
renched the whnrf, and Thco finally
stood on board the yacht, he left her
011 tho deck among the riot of cush
ioned chairs whllo ho went to speak
to tho captnln.
It wnsn't until he had left her thnt
Theo began to wonder why ho had
brought her here at all. It wasn't like
him to want to glvo any ono pleasure.
She began to feel nervous iu the midst
of tilt this luxury, nud to wish that
ho would come back. The more she
thought nbout It, the moro she wished
