laic ha: a mother who watches over
her and teaches her how to be modest
and disuroet and gentle and tender, and
a father who instills grit and courage
and determination and the big imper
sonal view of things into her. She
has a mother who teaches her to speak
pink tea patter at parties and a father
who discusses with her the effect of
regional banks on the currency system
and the Monroe doctrine in world poli
tics, so to speak.
When you find a girl who has been
brought up exclusively by her mother,
and who had had no masculine Influence
* on her life, you are very apt to find
bar narrow and prejudiced, full of petty
ways and convinced that the most im
portant thing on earth is to have a
Bklrt four inches narrower than any
other girl's or a feather half a foot
or to be the limit of the ex
aggeration of fashion, whatever it is.
Also she Is almost always overcon
ventlonal and given to subsisting on
Chocolate creams.
On the other hand, when you And a
girl who has been raised by her father
without a mother's influence she's
pretty certain to be hoidenish and
sporty; to lack a certain delicate re
finement that is the hallmark of a
lady, and to so scorn the proprieties
that gossip is always busy with her
name. And she eats roast beef and
onions.
Hooray! Baby To

No Longer Do Women Fear The Great*
est of All Human B'essings.
It Is a joy and comfort to know that
those much-talked of pains and other dis
tresses that are said to precede child-bear
ing may easily be avoided. No woman need
fear the slightest discomfort If she will
tortify herself wi(h the well-known and
time-honored remedy, "Mother's Friend."
This Is a most grateful, penetrating, ex
ternal application that at once softens and
makes pliant the abdominal muscles and
ligaments. They naturally expand without
the slightest strain, and thus not only
banish all tendency to nervous, twitching
•pells, but there Is an entire freedom from
nausea, discomfort, sleeplessness and dread
that BO often leave their Impress upon the
babe.
The occasion la therefore one of un
bounded, Joyful anticipation, and too much
■tress can not be laid upon the remarkable
Influence which a mother's happy, pre-natal
disposition has npon , the. health and for
tunes of the generation to eome.
Mother's Friend is recommended only fo#

TUESDAY EVENING,
By DOROTHY DIX
Raising a girl is no one-man or no
one-woman ,lob. It takes both the
father and the mother to turn but a
specimen Uiat is a credit to the human 1
race and a blessing to the world she
lives in. The ideal force, she must
have sweetness and strength, she must
have innocence and knowledge. These
qualities are the composite of the l
blending of the feminine and masculine :
Influence on a plastic character.
The world has always been so busy
rhapsodizing over a mother's Influence
over her children that It has left Itself
no breath in which to speak of a fa
ther's Influence. But the latter is
equally as valuable and even more po
tent. The pity of it is that so few
American children ever have the bene
fit of this benign power in shaping:
their lives.
For in this country it is sadly true
that in most families father is nothing
but a cash register. He feels that he,
has done his complete duty when lie
feeds and clothes his children and pays
their school bills, and he loaves all the
balance to the mother. He doesn't even ■
get acquainted with them enough to i
know what they really think and feel,
and what their real abilities are. He •
lets their mother set her Ineffaceable'
seal upon them, although he may know!
her to be silly and vain and frivolous
and everything he doesn't want his ,
sons and daughters to be.
Most men recognize some duty they|
owe their sons along this line, although :
they generally never pay it; at the,
same time few men ever realize that ;
they have a saorcd obligation to help
develop their daughters' characters.
Thoy feel that the> can turn over their
girls to their wives with a clear con
science.
Never was there*a greater mistake.
Biologists tell us that daughters are
closer to their father fn spiritual and
mental fibre than sons are; that thero ;
is the same close tie betweep them that, •
there is between mothers' and sons.
Common observation and experience
bear this out. Every woman will tes-| :

her father better than she has lierl]

confide In him than she has in her
mother—that is, of course, if she had
a real human father and not a petrified
1 grouch or an annuated check book of a
father.
It is Just as true that every great
woman has had a great father as
It is that every great man has had
a great mother. That is why talent
so often skips to the third generation,
and a great man's genius reappears in
his daughter's son.
A father's Influence over his daugh
ter, when he chooses to exercise it, is
prepotent because of thlslsubtle bond
between them. And he gives to his
daughter not only in inheritance but
in training some quality of strength
and bigness that a mother can never
give. You can pick out among your
acquaintances the women who have
been chums with their father without
knowing anything of their personal
history. They are more tolerant, less
personal, have more varied interests
and a generally broader sympathy with
life than the women who have been
under exclusively feminine tutelage all
their lives.
This being the case, Is it not pathetic,
is It not criminal, that more fathers
do not seek to Influence their daugh
ters for good—that thoy do not spend
more time trying to put frills on their
girls' characters instead of buying them
frills for their backs?
Think of the misery that might be
avoided if fathers took enough Interest
in their daughters' beaux to Influence
the girls to eliminate the unworthy
ones! Think of the sorrow and want
it would save if every father Influenced
his daughter to learn some good way
by which she could make a living
should she be thrown on her own re
sources! Think of all it would mean
to the world if fathers impressed on
their daughters' characters an honor
able man's ideal of honor, honesty and
courage!
The father's Influence Is just as Im
portant as tile mother's—the pity of
it is that the average girl is just a
half orphan, to all intents and pur
poses. She misses a father's hand In
forming her character and so misses
the best thing that life could give her.
derlng closely upon farce. It con
tains a wonderfully ludicrous charac

exploits unsuspected facets of her glit

DAINTY ETHEI. GREEN .
With two headliners like Earl's
Water Nymphs and dainty Ethel Green,
there are reasons why the Orpheum
should bo a popular spot this week.
The pretty divert and fancy swimmers
just splash and frolic through their
water carnival in a manner that would
make one believe they enjoyed it as
much as the audience does, adding con
siderably to the enjoyment of the m»st
pretentious auuatic 4ct in vaudeville.
Miss Green, who suffered some embar
rassment at the matinee, through a de
lay of the trunks that carried her stage
costumes, did admirably considering the
situation. She sang some of the newest
and most popular hits in her own sweet
and winning manner and scored a hit,
rock-solid. None of her Qld repertoire
remains, at least she didn't sing any of
it yesterday, although we have heard
some of her songs before. Not the least
popular of her numbers is "I Miss You
Most of All," and it's worth while to
hear her sing It, too. John and Mae
Burke in "nutty comedy, good piano
playing and much tomfoolery, scored
in a skit called "The Ragtime Soldier
Man," and Bertha Creighton and com
pany present a comedy drama called
"Half a Million," that struck the audi
ence just right. The whole bill was
favorably received and ought to prove
attractive. —Advertisement.
AT THE COLONIAL
The Castlllians, presenting a splendid
posing act In Imitation of bronze, is
easily the most artistic featuro shown
at the Colonial for some time. The
posers are clever and look fine in
groups of statuary fashioned after fam
ous statues. George Smedley will de
light every music lover with a clever
instrumental novelty, while the smiles
of the offering are well taken care of
by the Adams Brothers. —Advertise-

WITH TWO-PIECE S?KIRT. WITH OR
WITHOUT PEPLUM, SLEEVES AND CHEM
ISETTE
It is not often that one model can be
used either with or without the sleeves
but this gown is eaually successful treated
in both ways. Tne sleeves are the new
•ort joined to the gown at big armholes
and, when they are omitted, the blouse
can be worn over any preferred guimpc.
Since sleeveless.effects are much in vogue,
the frock is quite as smart made in one
way as the other. The fullness in the
two-piece skirt is arranged to form box
Elaits, one at the front and one at the
ack. Although most girls will prefer
the peplum, the dress is complete with
out. In the picture, the new taffeta that
is light in weight and beautifully lustrous
is trimmed with simple banding but this
frock could be made from serge to be
durable and practical or from light weight
wool as well as from silk, although taffeta
promises to be a favorite material of the
incoming season. When high neck is
wanted, a chemisette of lace or net can be
worn under the blouse.
For the 16 year size, the dress will
