Xfcfcwen T^Jnreßes Mistakes Made by Women WHEELER WILCOX Copyright, 1915, Star Company No gTpater mistake can be jnade with men than for a woman to boast of h«r success in winning hearts and proposals. It seems impossible that a woman possessed of one ray of com mon sense or a particle of breeding could do such a tiling; yet it is not unusual to hear a young lady relating her conquests to a group of admirers, and laughing over the susceptibility of mankind. Though they may laugh with her they are sure to laugh about her among themselves when her back Is turned. It is always a mistake for a woman to be led into lowering her ideals be cause some man she loves and admires luges her to step down. He Invariably curses her if she does, while if she I urns and passes above him she hears his benediction, arid eight times out of ten he follows her. It is always a mistake for a young lady to talk to a man as if she were blase and widely experienced in all human emotions, frailties and faults. Many innocent and inexperienced girls adopt this manner, thinking it will render them fascinating in the eves of men. Men, No! Analytic, JuilKr by Appear ance Knr More Than Women l)o Men are not analytic or deep-mind ed enough in regard to our sex or rea lize that a girl who has drunk too deeply of the waters of knowledge does not talk of it. Men take us for what we seem, not for what we are. The most hardened mondaine who wears a mask of frank innocence ! fares better with them than the good, sweet-hearted girl who puts on blase airs, and pretends, to be a little wick- ; ed. Men Judge by appearance far ■ more than women do. .Except In cases i where women unc rivals, they arc less | liable to condemn one another for a I slight lapse of speech or conduct than men are to condemn us. Another mistake which women some- j times make is to ask any favor of a man which will put him to tlie least I expense. No matter how pressing are tho circumstances, she should never ; take the liberty unless he is a near ! relative. In the various circles of 1 American society, where it is the cus- I torn of young men to escort young ' ladies to theaters and other places of I f-ntertainment, it is a mistake for a i young lady to voluntarily expatiate up- | 011 her fondness for the theater or the concert in his presence.

I A wealthy and accomplished girl at ! one of our noted seashore resorts was ; severely criticized and condemned by a ! group of men because one of them had ' heard her speak ,unklndly to her I mother.

Mistake For Women to Try to Prove (■mt Knowledge and Intellect It is a mistake for a woman to try to prove to men her great knowledge aud superior intellect. They enjoy an intellectual woman -when they dis cover her brightness themselves, but they do not like to have her force her brains and learning upon them. Put It is just as great a mistake to assume an air of insipidity and ex pect a man to think it charming. Men are exacting in their demands. Too much or too little brain in a woman is equally offensive to them. It is the mistake of a lifetime to accord a man any liberty and expect him to keep the matter a secret. While the exceptional man may maintain silence on the actions of a young girl whom he believes unsophisticated, the average man (in the highest the same as in the lowest walks of life) boasts of his successes with foolish women, and the rendezvous, the letter, the em brace or the souvenir which she has given liim, thinking It will never be known, Is shortly the matter of gossip among a dozen people. Woman's Worst Mistake Is to Think She fan Make \o Mistake Women hide their secrets far better than men do. They fear the censure of tho world too much to share their mistakes with confidantes. But men are invariably vain and proud of their conquests, and relate their achieve ments with fair sex to one or two ad miring friends. They seldom use names, but let the incidents once be told it is an easv matter to discover the person ages if one is at all curious to do so. It is the worst mistake of all for a woman to tlilnk she can make no mis take. The moment Such a conviction enters her head she is on the highway to some grand blunder whereby she will wound, disgust or antagonize the man she most cares for. Eternal watchfulness. never-failing caution, pernetual tact and equal quantities of pride and humility are necessar l ' in gredients in the behavior s woman needs to use with men. This should be garnished with good sense, flavored with coquetry, and served with good nature. And even then we will be liable to make some false steps.

"Going tc slart up and pay wages?" "I'm not acquainted with the situa tion yet." was the evasive reply. "I'll go over things with Mr. Tubbs tonight, nod then in the morning I'll see what is to be done." "The first thing is to give us money and food." was the curt answer. The men stamped out, leaving Drake to look at Tubbs in some dismay. The engineer was so relieved at hav ing some one else to bear the burden of responsibility that he refused to be worried. "Have another drink, partner." he said familiarly, "and forget it till to morrow." After a very poor meal which Tubbs scraped lip the 'wo sat down and smoked. Tubbs' tongue gradually loos ened under the influence of many more drinks, and before 10 o'clock brought up a waning moou Drake knew a great deal that made him uncomfortable. He resolved to shift the burden to Wllker scn's shoulders as quickly as possible. The next morning did not bring cheer. His head ached from the fumes of Bill Tubbs' whisky, and the chill of the mountain air was not dissipated by a cold breakfast. And before the sun had risen above the peak of the moun tain the miners had approached him with questions. CHAPTER XVIII. Th« Sattle In the Mine. OR an hour or so Drake equiv ocated and tried to postpone n action. But it was made plain to him (hat he could not avoid action. The starving men were in no humor for words. They demanded food and wages. At last he snw that he must do something immediately. He called some of the leaders Into the office and with apparent frankness told them he had known nothing of (be situation | and that he felt sure Wilkerson was unaware of it. "What are you going to do?" came the demand. '•.This." replied Drake, writing rap lily. He showed them the message: Harry Wilkerson. I.os Angeles. (All.: Come to mine »t once. Trouble Is brew ing?. DRAKE. "Will that bring him?" demanded one of them coldly. "Tt will. New who will take it and send It?" Two men volunteered to take old Tom Kane's burros and make the trip. "And while you're in Silent Valley," Drake said, yielding to a sudden in spiration, "take this S2O and get some grub for the camp." "There's still some locked tip in the cook house," said another. "It's old Tom Kane's lookout, so we didn't ex- \ actly feel like taking it" Drake turned to Tubbs quickly. "Distribute the food as far as it will go," he said. Tubbs looked suddenly serious. "I guess you better leave that to me," be said in a low voice. "I know where It will do the most good." He winked i slyly. Meantime John Dorr. Everett and Tom Kane were spending long hours in discussing what was to be done to save the "Master Key" to Rath. Tom once more went over the exact, situa tion at the mine and asserted that un less prompt, measures were taken not only would there be actual distress, but likely rioting. "You know some of the worst ones hang with Wilkerson,"- he said grim ly, "and they might at any time take It into their heads to do a little dyna miting. Dynamiting Is mighty dan gerous stuff around several thousand dollars' worth of machinery, and if they blew up the workings there wouldn't be any mine left, you see." "I see." said Everett at last. "Not having the papers, I can't put. this deal I FACE BROKE OUT IN SEVEOIf LES Would Itch and Burn. Lost Sleep, Had to Scratch. Used Cuticura Soap and Cuticura Ointment. In One Month Face Smooth.

Everett assented with all cheerfulness. "Now I'm going to loan 1 John Dorr here $5,000 today for the 'Master Key' mine. Then"— Jobu shook his head. "That Isn't business-like." he protested. Everett fixed his keen eyes on him. "Any reason why t shouldn't loan money to Miss Ruth Gallon s manager and guardian? Any reason why you, looking after her Interests, should re fuse help In fixing up her affairs?" DOIT flushed. "I didn't mean It that way. It seems as if I kind of messed things up myself, and I—l thought I might get 'em set right by myself." "You called on me, and I'm the doc tor," said Everett authoritatively. He pulled ont his wallet and commenced counting out bills. "I came prepared for this, for I thought there might be an emergency." "But who will take charge of it? "Who will go to the mine?" The broker laughed at birp. "Not you. You'd be in a fight in three min utes, specially if Wiikerson turned up. Tom Kane is our man." He turned on the old man abruptly. "Will you take this money and go?" The old cook stared at the crisp bills and then at Dorr. "I ain't handled paper worth that much lately," he re marked. "But if you want me to go in there and feed them people and get 'em back lo work and keep things go ing till John can fix things up here I'll go" On his way to the mine Harry Wil kerson's courage, newly fired by • last conversation with Jean Darnell, com menced to ebb. Drake and Tubbs received him with unaffected relief. A few words suf ficed to make the status of affairs plaiu. Tubbs looked at his superior with strained anxiety in his bleared eyes. Dull and sodden with liquor as he wns. he understood perfectly that everything depended on the next few days. The engineer had lived in min ing enmps and on the desert all his life, and he knew the passions engen dered by the arid mountains and the "I guess that'll fix '•m!" remorseless desert. What would Wil kerson do? Was he strong enough to handle these men who were ready for anything, even to bloodshed if aroused? Wiikerson had lost his sense of fear oddly enough. As he had come into the camp a dozen miners had recog nized him and scowled. He had felt their hatred, and it fed fat the man's sinister passion to do harm, to hurt, to destroy. Now he faced Drake and Tubbs arrogantly. "It won't be long till these chaps find out who's the boss." he said. With a significant look at Drake he pulled out the forged deeds and hand ed them to Tubbs. "Those mean that I'm iegallv the owner of the 'Master Key' mine." he announced. The engineer peered at them dully. He haltiugly mumbled over some of the legal phrases at the beginning, saw the names Thomas Gallon and Harry Wiikerson prominently displayed. He was impressed. He did not understand the purport of the papers. He did un derstand that Wiikerson was smiling with the insolence of triumph achiev ed. He grinned slowly and passed thf papers back. "I gues.-i that'll fix 'em!" he said hus kily. "I K"ess tt will." was the rejoinder. Tubbs seemed thoughtful, glancing jut of the window now and again. Drake voiced his feeling. "The sooner yon let the miners know end get thing* settled the better." Wiikerson llelted his dry lips. The battle was on. He broke the silence by saying gruffly. "Call 'em up here. Bill!" Nothing loath. Tubbs went out ou the porch, and his hoarse tones re sounded through the little valley. In stantly men appeared from doorways, came from a dozen places in response to that call. And women, clutching their children, peered out to see what was in the air. When the men were gathered before binh Wiikerson stepped forward aud commenced to speak. He could not break their sullen silence, and. after u few words of generalities, he mustered his courage and shouted: "1 am the owner of this mine! I have the deeds right here!"
