8 \)c2oMen /.^lnreß^s What Dose It Take to Be Popular? BT WHEELER WILiCOX I, To tie popular in .the world of art is. | according to the can ions of the "high brow critic," to be a dweller outside of the Inner sanctuary. Yet the Sermon on the Mount Is popular. Whatever posses ses all the qualities of real greatness must be popular, even though things which possess no qualities of greatness may be widely popu lar also. Simplicity nmi Sym pathy Opening Wedge* to All Minds. The large majority of people may like something mediocre, and only few may like something which contains many of the elements of greatness— something too fine for the masses to comprehend—but that which possesses ALL the elements of greatness must reach and grip the whole race. For, among those elements, simplicity and sympathy must be counted, those open ing wedges to all minds. The human being who Is popular Is sometimes accused of being all things to all men. and there is a cant phrase much in vogue among the unpopular about "caring only for a few people and being cared for by only a few." And this serves frequently as an easv excuse for the unpopularity of the dull or the disagreeable. To be a popular Individual in any community of self-respecting and mor ally disposed citizens, and to grow In popularity with acquaintance and time, calls for nobility of character, purity of purpose and kindness of heart. It calls also for tact, ro r discretion, for good judgment, for unselfishness, for generosity, for amiability and the power to bring out the best In others. It calls for a heart big enough to re joice In the achievements of others. It calls for the elimination of all lealousv all tendencies to gossip, all impulses to be indolent. Or indlfferenl, or self-cen tered. Their Married Life By MABEL HERBERT URNER "It's almost Indecent for her to take rooms at the same hotel," declared Carrie vindictively. "It was bad enough for her to stay at the hos pital—hut now to follow him back to the hotel," "Dut Dob's fat - from well yet," pro tested Helen. "And lie wants her with him every minute. Al'(er all, if they're to be married in June, does it make so much difference?" "The whole thing's inexcusable. No one ever heard of a girl going to live at the hotel with the man she's en gaged to. Dut you sent for her— .Vou're the cause of all (his 'melo dramatic' reunion, so I suppose (his sort of thing appeals (o you." I don't know wha( you mean by "(his sort of thing,' Carrie. Dut if Louise wants to stay a »voek longer while Dob is convalescing, I don't see (hat ii makes so very much dif ference at what hotel she stays. If it's more convenient for her to be there why shouldn't she?" "Oh, it's hopeless to talk to you. I might have known 1 was wasting my time coming here. You always had oncer ideas about conventions. Now if there's a scandal in the family, we'll have you to thank for it." Carrie's brief call was most dis quieting. AVlie.n she lefl, Helen's re s'..tment was mingled with anxious concern. That (lie whole family blamed her bitterly for having senl Cor Louise Helen knew. They refused to attrib ute Dob's recovery to Louise's pres ence, but violently opposed the re newed engagement. And now they •were scandalized al the thought of her taking rooms at the same hotel. So scathing had been Carrie's de nunciation of this plan, that although Helen had already given it her entire approval, she now began to waver. After all it might cause some un favorable comment. She determined (o talk it over with Louise thai afternoon. They were 10 meet, at Dob's rooms to have them in readiness, for he was leaving the hospital to-morrow. Helen in Doubt Dut knowing Louise's inflexibility where he was concerned, Helen dpubted if any arguments as to the "conventions" would influence her. Their appointment was for 3, and they met in the reception hall of THE CHARM OF MOTHERHOOD Enhanced By Perfect Physi cal Health. The experience of Motherhood is a try ing one to most women and marks dis tinctly an epoch in their lives. Not one woman in a hundred is prepared or un derstands how to properly care for her self. Of course nearly every woman nowadays has medical treatment at such times, but many approach the experi ence with an organism unfitted for the trial of strength, and when it is over her system has received a shock from ■which it is hard to recover. Following right upon this comes the nervous strain of caring for the child, and a distinct change in the mother results. There is nothing more charming than a happy and healthy mother of children, and indeed child-birth under the right conditions need be no hazard to health or beauty. The unexplainable thing is that, with all the evidence of shattered nerves and broken health resulting from BB unprepared condition, and with am ple time in which to prepare, women •will persist in going blindly to tho trial. Every woman at this time should rely upon Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, a most valuable tonic and Invigorator of the female organism. In many homen once childless there \\ ere now children be- W( wT 4§j| A cause of the fact 7/ |f that Lydia E. Pink- II jj ! Lam's Vegetable Jll A )L Compound makes M\\ women normal, healthy and strong. If yon want special advice write to Lydia E. Pinkham Medicine Co. (confi dential) Lynn, Mass. Yonr letter will lie opened, read and answered by a woman and held In strict confidence. TUESDAY EVENING, HARRJSBURG TELEGRAPH APRIL 28, 1914. Therefore, It would seem that an am bition to be popular Is at the same time an ambition to become a worth while Individual and a practical Chris tian. The man who sets out to be a great discoverer In science, or a great creator In the world of art, may not have the time to become a popular man In his own social circle. But, If lie is de cidedly unpopular, he Is sure to lack some of the large elements of charac ter which are necessary to bring him to the summit of the heights he seeks. Unless he is liked and respected by those who know him best something Is amiss with the man. There Is a cheap and temporary popu larity which conies from the ability to amuse others, from the . uropenslt-- to be generous to the limit of extrava gance, and to be ever ready with un meaning flattery, but the reign of these social leaders and lions is always brief. Sincerity and tact are two qualities which make for lasting popularity. Sinoerlty in thought and purpose," tact In the application of that virtue. The tactful person knows when and how to be silent. Many sincere Individuals think a bru - expression of the most unpleasant and disagreeable opinions is an evidence of their sincerity. But the tactful man or woman knows when to speak and when to be still and how to change a topic of conversation when some one has trodden on delicate grounil. Women Should I,earn tile Art or MxtenltiK Well, The woman who desires to be popu lar should first of all learn the charm which lies in listening well; and she should cultivate the art of drawing others out. of making those with whom she is thrown shine to their best ad vantage. if a man talks well lead him to con verse: if lie sings well Induce liiin to sing; and to bring forth the most at tractive qualities and accomplishments of her women friends is a sure wav for any woman to take a long step' for ward on tlie -ond to popularity. Such a woman, possessing mi marked accomplishments herself, and without beauty or great mental gifts, stands a the hotel. Helen got the keys from the clerk, and (hey went up to Ilob's rooms on the seventh floor. The blind* were drawn and the place was close and musty from hav ing been shut up for several weeks. Helen raised '(he windows, whilo Louise glanced around wi(h a look <>f rapt wonder. How often I've tried to picture his rooms wondering what (hey would look like. It's hard (.. realize that J m really here!" "I know." mused Helen. "I used to wonder about Warren's room and all his things. I suppose every woman idealizes Hie surrounatngs of (ho man she loves." Louise glanced at some books on the center tabic, then went over to tile chiffonier in the alcove dressing room. Lovingly she touched tho brushs and trinkets that lay there »s though a-thrill with the intimacy or i( all. ifl the bed there were two large bundles of laundry which Helen now unwrapped, handing the list to Louise. I don't suppose lie ever checked his laundry in his life--but we will. Six shirts, eight collars, two pajamas, three pair socks, seven handkerchiefs, two suits of under wear. Louise, with tense interest, marked them off the list, and then helped to put them away in the chiffonier drawers. She lingered yearningly over each garment. Duttons wfere off, button holes torn—all the ravages of the modern "hand laundry" on (lie de fenseless bachelor's clothes. Louise Is Iluppy "I'll have time to mend them'all U? '"the week I'm here," joyouslv. Oh, its so wonderful that I should be here—doing this! Think how ut terly wretched 1 was two weeks ago! Helen, the whole world's changed in the last ten days!" "I know, dear. And oh, I want it to stay changed! I want you to be tranquilly, restfully happy now without any more misunderstand ings!" "Do you know," dreamily, "one of the first things he said, as soon as the doctor let him talk, was that he was willing to concede everything rather than lose me again. Oh, he needs ine so! He makes mo feel that he needs me! And he's very gentle now—very different from tile old dominating Dob." A moment's silence. Then Helen drew Louise down beside her on the couch with an earnest: "Dear, this is hard to say—but I feel so responsible for it "all—that there's something I must speak to you about." Louise looked at her wonderingly. "It's about your staying here in this hotel for a week or so. I've been thinking it over and I'm—l'm not sure that it will be wise." "Why?" quickly. Helen hesitated. "Well, Carrie came to see me this morning. She thinks it would be very indiscreet— that it would cause comment." "Carrie!" with scornful impatience. "Oh, T know Carrie hates me—she has all alone. She s hardly spoken lo me at the hospital, but I've been so happy I haven't cared. You don't think I mind what SHE says?" "Dut, Louise, she may be right it may cause comment." "What if it does?" proudly. "If a few gossipy people wish to miscon strue things they can. Do you think that would influence me—now?" Helen was pulling thoughtfully at the tassel on the corner of a sofa pil low. Somehow the argumenls she had meant to advance seemed sud denly inadequate. And yet there was i still the feeling that it would not be best for Louise to so defy conven tions. ■\ Bold Plan "Do you know," Louise started up, walked to the window and back again, "I may not take other rooms— I may stay right In these! I may marry Bob at the hospital to-morrow —and come here—as his wife." "Louise!" "Oh, 1 know his whole family would be up in arms! They'd want all the rod tape and conventions of a formal wedding. Dut I'm not con sidering his family—l'm considering Dob and myself." "Dul Bob," faltered Helen. "I al ways thoughl he was so very con servative? I'd imagine' he'd want a very conventional wedding." "He does. He hasn't even sug gested this." (lushing slightly. "I haven'! either, yet but 1 tliink I shall. I'm not going to risk any more separations—l've suffered too much." "I know, oh, I know," murmured Helen, drawing Louise's hand into hers. 1 "You don't' know," bitterly, "you CAN T know what 1 went through in (hose three months at Palm Reach! I (rled (o force myself (o mingle with other people, to accept attentions from other men—anything on re just as strong as vou ever were." "I'm slrong enough not to let. a. few meaningless conventions stand between us now. I'll marry Dob and come here, or I'll come hero without marrying him," recklessly. "Rut I'm going to stay with him until lie's well. Do you think, after those months of anguish, that I'd care what anyone 'says'? Vou can't suffer like that, you can't * - ant. any one as much as I wanted Dob—without be coming intolerant of most conven tions." "Yet Bob is the narrowest, most conventional of men! I know, be cause in those things he's so mUch like Warren. Don't, Louise; don't iet him see this phase of you—l'm afraid he wouldn't understand." "Perhaps not. Most women are at heart much more unconventional than men. Vou know that's true," defiantly. "You know that every woman has reckless, desperate moods when she's capable of any unconven tionality." "Yes, I do know that," admitted Helen. "Dut I've never dared let Warren see me in those moods." "Well, I shan't be so cautious," passionately. "To-morrow I'll give Dob a fine exhibition of a tempera mental woman! Of one thing I'm determined," Louise • caught her breath, "nothing is going to separate us now! Not even if it means defy ing all the conventions —and the whole Curtis family!"

British Royal Marines Rescue Eight Americans Ily Associated Press Washington, D. C., April 28.—Ad m'-al Mayo reported that Admiral Cradock of the British cruiser Herml one had dispatched Major Clark and a detachment of British royal marines forty miles inland from Tampico to rescue eight Americans at Orange Hill and was expected back to-night. The Herjjiione sent thirteen refugees aboard the Des Moines to-day. Admiral Badger reported that It would be inadvisable to send an Amer ican ship to the Yucatan district, "as tt might start anti-American demonstra tions." • In regard to the reports from Tam pico that American citizens there were indignant because of the departure of the American battleships from the r'ver, Secretary of tlie Navy Daniels said to-day that, this action had been taken after Admiral Cradock had in formed Admiral Mayo that he would undertake to receive Americans from Tampico aboard the Hermione and transfer them to the Des Moines up on the American vessels taking a position at sea.

Refugees Say Huerta Will Soon Vacate Chair Vera Cruz, April 28. —That Vlctorl ano Huerta will voluntarily abdicate or will bo forced out within a few days is the belief ol' American refugees who arrived on a special train lrom the capital this afternoon. Federico Gamboa, former minister of foreign affairs, once governor of Yucatan and candidate of the Catholic party against Huerta, is named by the antl-Huerta group as the man to sup plant him. According to the refugees, anti lluerta sentiment has so crystallized av the capital that on Saturday the con spirators made an attempt to oust the dictator, but failed.
