One can conceive of Individual women
who hnvc suffered from outraged affec
tions Inviting the sympathy of rela
itlvea or close friends It Is conceiv
able that mothers whose children have
jbeen abandoned would feel it legitimate
te join a group who were having re

lawe. We can picture a group of women
who suffered in marriage, because they
themselves were permitted te marry tee
young, and tee ignorant, working out
some educational scheme by which girls
,should be enlightened en certnin brutal
and cruel types of men.
, Yes, there are possible causes for
combinations of women, whose experi
ences,' bitter and disillusioning, might
cause' them te be manhaters, and who
felt an urge te help ethers te avoid
the pitfalls into which they hnd fallen.
But npart from these rather obvious
things, what could feminine lighters

HOW many women are willing te

.that fully one-half the female sex has

far abandonment; curely no such mam
moth proportion of womankind has be-n
cast off by its mate!
Te our way of thinking, there Is tee
much stress laid en the sin of breaking
an engagement. Surely, It Is a nauc
and decent thing te halt a marriage
before it is tee late, if one party dis
covers that it it, u mUtukc. Surely,
Jiouer demands that a man refrain from
wedding n girl he does net love. What-
ever inconvenience or hurt vanity or
.embarrassment is caused by a broken
engagement is nothing cemptrnd with
the horrors of a loveless marriage. One
may argue that the man who nrdcntl

Read Your Character
By Diqby PhiUipi
Buying Frem the Croucher
Every once In a while you run across
a "creucher." Yeu knew the type,
the man who Instinctively and habit
ually seems te hunch himself forward.
As In ether walks of life you'll find
crnuchcrs among mlcsmen. Once In n
while they call en you nnd try te sell
you something.
First of nil you should observe care
fully te mnkc sure whether he is a
creucher by instinct or as a result of
infirmity. Of course. In the Intter case
there is no indication of .the mnn'tt
habitual posture that you can count
upon except that of his physical In
firmity. But if It appears te be merely a
habit with him, be en your guard.
He's the type thnt will "slip one ever"
if he sees his way clear. This does net
necessarily mean that he is dishonest
or downright unscrupulous. It means
merely that he has in his mnke-un a
certain amount of slyness, of cunning,
and that as likely as net there Is some
thing in connection with his preposition
that he is net telling you for fear it
will influence your decision against It.
In short, in letting a man of this
tvnc sell you. you should be very care
ful te pin. htm down directly en all
points which j possibly can affect you.
Quiz him, draw him out. Get at what
is in the back of his mind before you
commit yourself. As a rule you can
tell when you have uncovered the point
In question. Something of n crest
fallen air is very likely te creep into
bis manner when his cunning has
failed.

who didn't belleVc In

"It's enough te give

said Paul tossing the

"Stuff and nonsense! The idea of a

"It's awfully real. I think."

don't have te read such nonsense. It's
positively sickening. That last chapter
where this peer chump is grabbing the
girl in his arms every few minutes 'and
f naming n tender kiss upon her moist,
nvitlng lips' bah, that's enough te
drive a mnn te te drink."
"There's some ginger ale in the ice
box." said Virginia impudently.
"Don't be silly. Honestly, Virginia,
when I think of the junk they hand out
ns literature or even as just plain novels
these days, I have a geed mind te sit
'down and write a story myself."
"But people want te read love
stories," insisted Virginia-.
'Aw. that's net a love story. It's
silly. Yeu can make a love story, as
you call it, without all that mushy hug
ging and kissing business in it. Yeu

"Hardly. Can't nave two authors In

"Well, new take take the time we
were engaged. We didn't act foolish,

Dear Cynthia My opinion of you is
that you have been giving some geed

advice one would expect from a big

Often as I read the ungrammatlcal

rather than advice that they seek. Most

However, Cynthia, slnce this Is net a
dtscourse en your column. I must admit
surprise en seeing- a letter written by
such a girl as "Heaven's Eves."- A girl
such as she describes herself should net
feel lonely; she should have a host of

Being n university student at the
largest university In this city, I might
say that girls are often the topic of
dormitory discussion. New, contrary te
the epinlcti of the "flapper (the name
Itself smacks of vulgarity), she Is net
liked. The flapper Is net the kind of
company the average university student
seeks. The common vulgarities of the
flapper and her associates nre Indulged
in by some students because the Klrl
herself solicits l often net in words, but
In attitude.
Many young men would seek with
pleasure the company of one well bred
nnd net artificial. "Heaven's Eyes" is,

tell the world of the things that I have !
seen the BoeM'hlladclphla Campaign
would be n failure en account of tlie
women felke. Acceidlmr te the dress of
"flnpptrs" th City of Philadelphia has
no morals. Vice seems te predominate
ever virtue. In your hotels nnd caba
rets girls and women from the age or
fourteen te fifty dress very Immodestly.
At one of the lurge dances recently held
in this city the girls were seen smoking
'nd drinking and doing ull kinds or
suggestive dancing without thought or
rare of the future. Is It that th femi
nine sex Is becoming degenerate? Phil
adelphia girls seem te be trying te set
i pace which Is tee strenuous te'extend
te nny distance. They may blame
It en the men, hut it Is foolish te de se.
Flappers are mere p!nythinga which

they're dragging the fair name of
Philadelphia te the worst pesslblt, state.

This may he very true, but then
women are net typical of Philadelphia.
Yeu will find women of this1 kind In

Hew Reman Nnaet-als' Originated
The characters renresentln the Re
man numerals ere' merely a develop
ment of finger counting. Thus I was1
one finger: II, two fingers; HI. three,
fingera ; , IIH. four fingers 1 V. the
thumb and forefinger; VI. thumb nnd
lerennger en one bnnd and one
finger en 'the ether: VII,' with two
fingers en. the ether hand: VIII, with
three Angers; Villi, the original sym
bol for nine, with four fingers : tX the
fingers of both hands interlaced. Hew
the IIII, meaning four,, nnd the Villi,
meaning nine came te be changed te
IV nnd IX Is net definitely known.
The figures en our clocks and ether
timepieces are, of course, the Reman
numerals, but why the IIII should. still
be used te indicate four, while nt' the'
same time IX is uaed te indicate nine
Is one of the unexplained mysteries.
The form of subtrnctlng dnc had evi
dently been used prier te their ue en
timepieces, because IX is used and IV
Is net. - '
The Reman numerals never lent
themselves te ease of , calculation. Fer
instance, it was necessary te subtract
ten from fifty and ndd Ave before any
one knew that- XLV meant, forty-flve.
The accountant of these days wns n
profound scholar from necessity and a
man te be regarded with respect and
admiration.
The Hgyptlnns are credited with de
signing the first -practical system of
numerals and their application, In one
of the tombs near the city of Olich,
hieroglyphic numerals of a Very ancient
period luive been found in which "one"
Is represented by a' vertical line; ten
by a hore-hee: "ene hundred" b'i .
short spiral; "one thousand" by n
pointing finger; "one hundred thou
sand" by a frog; and a "mllllpn" by
a mnn In nn nttitude ef-prnycr.

WHAT'S WHAT
By Helen Decie
I JUnM
(Sometimes people resent the fact that,
Instead of Invitations te a wedding,
they lecolve announcement cards, sent
Immediately after the event. There Is
no Jubtltlcatleu for resentment In the
matter, especially If the wedding Invi
tations have been limited te the nearest
relatives and most Intimate friends, as
is no often done at the present time,
whenever ,the circle of acquaintance Js
tce large te be entertained at one tlme
lu u. house of ordinary slice.
Far from being an unfriendly mes
sage, the. .wedding announcement card
Indicates u desire te .continue the ac
quaintance. The recipient may or may
net send a wedding present; that Is
optional. If the "at home" future date
Is given, It la a token that the one te
whom the announcement has been sent
Is expected te call aa seen as the happy
pair chad have established their house
