her emancipation. Her past slavery,
with long, winding skirts, insanitary
and street -sweeping, which clogged her
movements and precluded bicycle-riding
and tennis, went with long coils of hair,
that must be dressed elaborately, curled
and filled with hairpins. Net only once,
but often, several times daily did the
girl of olden days spend an hour in
preparing her elaborate coiffure. She
gave up swimming, because it was such

It was that final shot that made me
vaguely unhappy, for until erman had
taken a definite place In my life, I had
thought seriously for a time of Herbert

It was In vain that I laughed at
myself, and I lenjcd restlessly for the

Through a
Weman's Eyes
Ry JEAN NEWTON
The Tyranny of Things
In his "Story of Mankind" Hen
drlck Van Loen says of the Greeks:
"The story of Oreek life Is a story
of simplicity. 'Things,' chairs nnd
tables nnd books nnd houses and car
riages, are apt te take up a great
deal of their owner's time. In the
end they Invariably make him their
slave nnd his hours are spent looking
after their wants, keeping them pol
ished nnd brushed nnd pnlnted. The
Oreeks, before everything else, want
ed te be 'free,' both In mind and in
body. That they might maintain their
liberty and be truly free in spirit
they reduced their dally needs te the
lowest possible point."
And this reminds me of the tlme
when I was a little girl, when a very
rich lady who lived In n very large
house with a great many servants)
remarked te my mother that she was
going nway te rest from her house
hold duties. This appealed te my
baby sense of humor. SU servants
and she needed n rest from house
hold duties)
My mother tried te explain what I
have long since discovered that the
lnrgcr her house and the greater the
number of her servants the bigger Is
n woman's job bigger probably than
the woman who has no servants but
lives in n bungalow. Managing serv
ants Is only another kind of werk:
nnd because it entails mere care and
responsibility. It Is te many women a
less agreeable kind of work than do
ing things for themselves.
And se It la with most of the
"things" we call luxuries. They tyr
annize ever us. Like the woman who
must remain indoors en n beautiful
day because the crystal closet must be
washed or the hangings cleaned, most
of us nrc In some measure under the
tyrnnny of things.
Silver has te be constantly polished.
Furniture must be dusted nnd kept
shining. Jewels must be locked In
strong boxes of which people are con
stantly losing the keys! Indeed, the
trnmp takes the lonely read with less
care and a lighter heart thnn the
woman who rides in a limousine be
decked with jewels en neceunt of which
she is in fenr of her life.
It has been snld that "Hcnvy lies
the head that wears n crown," but
net heavier than the man's whose
belted doers must guard valuables that
Invite thieves.
A woman whom I suspect of Greek
ancestry made the remark the ether
day that with the glorious out-of-doers
and se many wonderful nnd interest
ing things In life te enjoy, it is a
crime that we must give se much time
te simply "keeping the wheels going
round" the dressmaker nnd the hair
dresser and the butcher, the baker,
the candlestick maker, house, home and
ether routine.
The Greeks in their simplicity hnd
the right idea. Fer surteunding our
selves with possessions Is net always
conducive te mere comfort, freedom
or pence of mind. Indeed, one of the
greatest of tyrannies is the tyranny
of "things."

And whnt kind of character would

heavy, nnd the writer makes no at

hut the last two or three trail off

word Is from the first few letters.

Where Mucilage Cemes Frem
Se closely allied with Ink that they
nre generally made by any one who
produces it, are the useful products,
paste, mucilage nnd ether adhcslvcs.
The product from which mucilage is
made has been known for centuries. As
far back as 2000 B. 0. gum was used
by the Egyptians in the mnnufneture
of colors for paintings. The types used
in this country nrc ghattl, which Is
found In India; gum arable, which
comes from the Anglo-Egyptlnn-Seu-dan
region of Africa, and Senegal, from
the French African colony of Senegal.
Gum arable, which contains the most
desirable qualities for the manufacture
of mucilage, is a little lighter In color
than our native spruce gum nnd exudes
from the acacia tree In the same man
ner as sptuce gum from the spruce. The.
i gum is gathered by the men nnd picked
Aitna anil siaH Ki tha m simian DnnlaA
in bales nnd transported en the backs i
of cnmels te the Nile ports, It is leaded
en vessels of shallow draft by natives,
who wade out and carry the bales en
their shoulders.
On arrival nt a factory the gum Is
dissolved and filtered te remove the lit
tle impurities, such as pieces of bark
nnd dirt. It Is then refiltered and re
stirred with ether constituents and
finally stored In vats for from six te
eight weeks, This allows any Inselu
ble matter te settle. It Is then ready
for bottling nnd packing. Although it
is necessary te rill the bottles singly.'
the speed with which this is done in ni
modern factory is an interesting opera
tten.
Photographic paste, of the stiff, white
variety, has supplanted mucilage in
many offices. Its component part is
dextrine, a special staich-llke product,
which Is derived from potatoes.

There are modern papers of Chinese
puttcrn with great variety of color and
design. Theie are also reproductions
of the late eighteenth nnd early nine
teenth century French papers, with
scenes from classic mythology, meant
te be used as panels. And there nre
papers with pronounced colors, nnd
strong designs of flowers, foliage nnd
birds. These arc usually less expensive
than the three first mentioned.
It is best te use decorative papers

What te De
By CYNTHIA
Tha Rlaht "Betty" at Lat
Dear Cynthia First et all, Cynthia.
I want te thank you for bringing
around this wonderful unknown xrlena
shlp between Jack -White and myself
through your wonderful column. New,
Cynthia, will you please print this fcr
Jack White? Thank you.
Dear Jack, I am very happy te think
that it was me whom you meant out
of the four ether Bettys. It tirleves
me te write and tell you that I am net
the "Betty of the mail-order house. I
knew It will be a great disappointment
te you. I am very sorry. ,,,
Please write again te me. BETTY.
He Says He Dislikes Her
Dear Cynthia I have often wanted
te write te your wonderful column that
I never neglect reading, but somehow I
always hesltate, and thia tlme I need
your help very much.
I am a girl of eighteen, and am
living in Atlantic City. I de net work,
aa I am living with my grandmother,
as she Is an Invalid and needa tome
one with her all the time. I am very
happy because I can be with her, and
she gets anything I want and Is very
geed te me. . ,
New, Cynthia dear, about five weeks
age I met a young man five yeara my
senior, whom I care for very much. I
have leta et ether friends that I like
very much and would hate te lese them,
but, Cynthia, they are friends, and this
young man Is very dear te me, although
he may net knew I think se much of
him, as I try net te let him see It, but
I knew It. and I don't think I will
ever be happy without him. He acta
aa though he llkea me, but he Is for
ever calling me a flapper. I have
bobbed hair and am llked by all my
friends.
New. Cynthia, It hurts me very
much te be called a flapper, as I de
net carry en and act like most of
them de, and I can see no reaaen te
be called se. Then, again, when I try
te act my best te please him he calls
me a saint and a virgin. 1 can never
understand him and don't knew why he
acta se. He has geme te college and Is
well educated and Is very mannerly.
He has never said he really cares for
me, but he said he llkea my company
and thinks I am very nice, and ether
times he says he dislikes me se he
would like te kill me. Well, Cynthia.
If he talks that way, why should he
come around ut all? About two weeks
age he was around te see me nearly
every night. A couple of days age he
went away and he came around early
In the morning te say goedby te me.
He told me ha would be back In a
week or se, and never snld whether he
would -write te me or net, and, Cynthia
dear, I am praying night and day te
hear from him, but I don't think he
will be bnck again, and I nm afraid I
will never see or hear from him again.
I dearly hope I will hear from you
very aoen, as I would give anything te
knew what te de te train his love If he
comes back. I wilt be one happy girl
If I see my letter In your column. Tell
me if you think he really meana all he
says, and please don't tell me te give
him up. Geed luck te you. Cynthia,
I am heartbroken. PEGGY H.
Try net te think se much about him,
dear, and when ha comes back treat him
very casually. Cynthia thinks he just
likes you as a friend nnd likes te tease
you. Shew him you de net care, and
If he Is really serious he will change
his methods.
Parents Want te Get Rid of Her
Dear Cynthia I read ycur most In
teresting column every evening, and I
find that you have Intelligently an
swered seme vary difficult problems. I
have never written te you before, but I
find It necessary at the present time te
ask advice of you, as I cannot think of
nny one else te give tome sensible ad
vice. I am a young girl In my teens, and
have been going with a fellow for the
last ten months who Is two and a half
years my senior. We nre both young,
but all the same we knew the true
meaning of love, and we love each ether
dearly. New, the trouble is that this
fellow Is net placed very well finan
cially, He is very ambitious, and I
Just knew that he will make geed when
his time comes. He Is hustling mere
than I belleve nnv fellow cf his age
would care te. He did net have the
chance te save up nny money before,
but new he Is starting te save, and I
hope he will succeed, ns he Is working
very hard. New, my parents like this
fellow and they admit that he Is et a
very fine character nnd perfect In every
point, but de net care for me te go
with a peer fellow. They have nagged
me nil my life, and new they are Just
torturing me te death en account et
going with a peer fellow when I can
get a rich one. I don't like te go
against thelr wishes, but new I can't
de aa they tell me. I feel that I could
never drop this fellow, and I knew It
would kill him If I would. Meney
means nothing te me, but It means a
great deal te my parents. What la a
girl te de when she Is se fixed? I am
a peer girl myself, and still they want
me te get a rich fellow. A rich fellow
wants a rich girl and also an attractive
girl, which 1 am net. When a rleh
fellow takes n peer girl, that girl will
never be happy, because she will
alwaya feel that she sold herself and
she was paid for. Very seldom does
a rich fellow marry a peer girl for
love. That la my point of view, but
I don't knew what different people
think. By the time we will think of
getting married he shall be better
placed; My heart jUBt tella me he
will, but my parents won't give him a
chance te make geed. They want te
get rid of me quick. They don't
reallze that what's worth while. Is
worth whlle waiting for. They don't
understand the ways of life. Thev have
still the old-fashioned Ideas In their
heads. Dees money mean se much In
thlH world? Deesn t the real true leva
mean mero than the world of money?
Meney you can leso easily, while love,
ence you leye you always love. Ours
la a real strong love, nnd I feel that
we could net de without each ether,
Please, dear CynthU, glve me your
clever advice en thia serious matter.
.Shall I listen te my parents, ns I have
done in ether respects, nnd drop this
fellow, which would break his heart
and would hurt me for the. rest et my
life, or shall I pay no attention te my
parents, which I don't like very much
te de, but I can't make them under
stand, nnd keep en going with this
fellow until he makes geed, Plenee,
dear Cynthia, give me some advice, ns
I have no one te turn te for It. Nobody
understands my position.

Then People Were United in an
body Is Fighting
TOMORROW we celebrate Independ
ence Day.
What a difference in the independ
ence they fought for in the Revolution
and the independence that se many are
fighting and talking for new.
Then it was a helpful, noble ideal;
new it is a harmful, selfish Idea.
In thete days people weru together In
a common cause of national Independ
ence : today it is every man nnd woman
for eclf in a wild desire for personal
freedom. ,
There it no Utm work in it new.
Women are refuting te say "obey
in the marriage service, men are using
up all the cookie jars making strange
concoctions because they cannot be re
stricted in their personal liberty; boys
are running away from home and
school because they mutt be free; girls
nre wearing as few clothes at possible
and cutting off their htlr and learning
te smoke men like men because they will
net be held down; they will be in
dependent. ...
And what does it get any of them?
THEY don't seem se very much hap
pier for their Independence, and they
surely are net se very much better off
for It. ... .. .,
And the reason for this anti-climax
of their efforts is very simple and easy
te find. .
Tbey are working from a purely
selfish motive; that's why they don't
gain happinett.
Yeu can't be happy, for very long at
least, if you reach out for a goal en
tirely with, by and for yeurtelf.
Somebody else is sure te be pushed
behind and made unhappy If you go
about your life in this way, and sooner
or later you have te pay for it in un
happiness or discontent of your own.

Adventures With a Purse
T AST week Helen's grandmother had
xj a birthday and Helen was hunting
for some candy te send along with her
present. Chocolates did net pack well
in warm weather, and she didn't knew
what te send. Se I told her of some
old-fashioned mint candy, the kind
which comes in long plaits. Creamy
and white, it was the very thing and
was only forty cents a pound.
Ne one wants te spend the necessary
time in the kitchen te prepare dressing
for salads. French dressing can be
