By DOROTHY DIX
s -• -bo s unattrac
tive to men, because we men are sim
ple creatures with simple ideas and
simple tastes, and an unfortunate par
tiality for genuine, instead of spurious,
articles.
'lt's a pity that somebody doesn't
rise up and tell girls that the two
qualities that men admire most in
woman are naturalness and sincerity.
That's where the milk maid and the
country lassie have always won out.
"It's artlesaness, not artfulness, that
catches a man's fancy, and honestly, I
could weep for sympathy over the mis
takes I see dear little girls making;,
who would be charming: if they would
only be themselves, and who are so
silly and tiresome when they are af
fecting; to be something- that they are
not, but which they falsely suppose
that men admire.
"Take, for instance, vivacity. When
vivacity is an attribute that a girl Is
born with, when she has quicksilver In
her veins and a devil in her eyes and
a bright outlook on life and a laugh
that f» like a peal of silver bells, she
makes a gay and delightful companion.
But it's because her merriment is spon
taneous and unforced.'
"Here comes along a girl of an en
tirely different type, a girl who Is
sober as a judge, and who couldn't see
a joke even after it was diagrammed
for her, but she's heard vivacity praised
in another girl, and so she giggles and
smirks and smiles until it makes your
face ache to look at her perpetual grin,
and she's so noisy and tiresome that
Daysey Mayme and Her Folks
By Prances h. Garside
There were two guests in the pax-1

pleton, both uncles of Davsey Mayme.'<
One sat on the very edge of the 1
lounge. Nervous and apprehensive,'
he looked as if all his life he had j
had no more show than a rabbit in I
show time.
The other, fat and ponderous, over- j
flowed the largest chair In the room, j
It la not necessary to name his pro- j
totype further than to say that a
great many fortunes have been made 1
In canning them.
It was the nervous man's turn. A
little ustered at being the center j

squeaky voice:
"That reminds me. Out in Cali

she makes a man want to run oft and
hide where he can get out of earshot
of her voice and her cackle.
"Then there's the girl who pretends
to be a sport and who smokes cigar
ettes, although she loatlis the taste of
them, and they make her sick, and
who talks about how many cocktails
she can drink, and who boasts of her
losses at cards, and who listens to off
color stories, whose mistiness she
doesn't half understand. Can anybody
explain why a really respectable young
girl should wish to be thought to have
the tastes and habits of the kind of
woman we do not even mention in her
presence?
"Yot they do. I know dosens of per
fectly innocent young women who pre
tend to be tough, and who speak caau:
ally of having had too much cham
pagne, when the only thing they ever
had too much of was an extra cup of
tea. They disgust the very men that
they could attract if they would only
be their natural, sweet, simple selves.
"And there's the girl who poses as
being literary or artistic or musical,
and who feels called upon to wear
sllnksey clothes and never comb her
hair and to go about with a rapt look
In her eyes.
In reality her tastes are for Marie
Corelli and chromos and ragtime, but
she talks In a soulful way about Ibsen
and Sudermann and technique and col
oratura until she gives you the fantods,
and a man would go seven miles to
avoid meeting her.
"If she'd go along and talk about
the common, everv-day subjects she un
derstands. men would like her and she'd
have plenty of beaux, but the average
man doesn't care a hang about what
Browning thought he thought, or high
browed conversation, and he's going to
let the girl severely alone who hands
out that line of talk to him.
"I've known more than one girl miss
a good husband by always lugging
around a copy of Maeterlinck with her.
"Then there's the girl who pretends
to be a great belle, and who always
tells every man she meets what a heart
-smasher she is, and how this man
keeps her in flowers, and that man in
candy, and another worries the life out
of her dragging her around to theatres,
and how she told another man that
she just wouldn't go out in his car
more than seven times a week, and
how many millionaires are on their
knees entreating her to marry them
in the rear, when the team attached
t othe hearse was frightened, bolted
and ran away.
"A race: The mourners were quick
to see the opportunity, and digging
their spurs in their mounts started up,
overtaking the hearse team befose it
reached the cemetery gates.
"The miner to whom fell the task
of acquainting the widow back East
of her bereavement recounted the
man's illness and death, and the run
away. Wishing to assuage her grief,
he added: 'lt tvill no doubt be a
comfort to you. Madame, to learn that
the CORPSE WON.' "
The nervous man waited for laugh
ter. but there wasn't a ripple. After
a silence that seemed as mournful as
the tomb, the big. ponderous and
pompous man overflowed his chair
some more, and in a voice that could
have been heard away oft in to-mor
row. said:
"I am the pin who put the pin in
pinnacle."
Daysey Mayme gave a roar that
shook the chandelier. Then she tit
and threatening suicide If she won't.
"This girl thinks she makes herself
more desirable In a man's eyes by be
ing desired, and the man Is wonder
ing if she thinks he is boob enough to
be strung with any such stories, and
he's disgusted with her, because every
decent man hates a liar, and particu
larly he doesn't want a wife that is a
Saphira.
"And there's the girl who pretends
to despise all sorts of womanlv things.
She sneers at religion. She scoffs at
family affections. She calls children
brats, and declares tjiat the very sight
of a baby disgusts her, and she boasts
that she never puts her foot inside of
the kitchen, and wouldn't know how
to boil water without scorching It, and
1 tf any man thinks she's going to keep
house for him he's fooled.
"He isn't, because no man ever wants
that sort of a woman In his kitchen.
A man's ideal of a wife Is a woman
who is all womanly, one whose heart
is bound up in her own family, who
is tender and loving to little children
and old people, and who knows how
to do everything in a house that turns
It into a home. Whv any girl should
be fool enough to think she attracts
a man by posing as an example of the
marble heart and the woman who
doesn't know her business passes com
prehension.
"And most fatal of all is the folly of
the girl who pretends to be better off
than she is. I know plenty of poor
girls who dress as if they were million
aires. Every cent the family can rake
up is put on their backs, and they and
their mothers slave themselves to death
turning and twisting their clothes so
as to give the impression that they
have ten times what they have.
"They think this attracts men, but
it scares them oft. When a man sees
the daughter of a poor man diked out
like Solomon in all his glory, he says.
'Not for muh: she's selfish and ex
travagant and willing to work her poor
old dad to death to get fine clothes.
I don't want that sort of a wife.' And
he passes her up.
"Why do girls act so silly? Why
haven't they sense enough to know
that imitation wares are always cheap
and vulgar, and that there is nothing
else so attractive as just simplicity?
"If they'd only be themselves instead
of trying to be somebody else there'd
be no more old maids."
tered, and giggled and rippled, and
choked and sputtered and shook.
Then she began at the beginning
and did it all again, while the nerv
our man looked both frightened and
dazed, and the fat man looked com
placent.
"The pin in pinnacle," she shrieked,
"was anything ever so funny!"
Moral and also Explanation: The
man who told the first story was poor
kin, and the man who told the second
had dollar marks all over him. No
one laughs at a poor kin's jokes.

WITH DRAWERS THAT CAN BE FINISHED

that it is in great demand. This one
combines a prettily full corset cover with
perfectly smooth fitting drawers so that
it is perfectly well suited to youthful
figures. As it is shown here, the material
is fine nainsook and perhaps that is in
more general use than any other but some
girls like fine French crSpe for under
garments and crtpe de chine and Japanese
•ilk are groving in favor. For trimming,
nothing is betterthan the fine Valenciennes
lace, for it washes perfectly and is durable.
For the 16 year sire, the garment will
require a yds. of material 16, 2 yds.
44 in. wide, with yds. of beading,
SH yds- of edging to trim as shown on
figure.
The pattern 8187 is cut in sires for girla
