" When a Girl " !
By ANJf LISLE
A New, Romantic Serial Dealing With the Absorbing
Problems of a Girl Wife
CHAPTER XXIX ,
(Copyright. 1918, by King Features
Syndicate. Inc.)
"What's that husband of yours 1
been doing?" demanded a voice
from the doorway.
I looked up from the eggs I was
frying, and there stood my brother, i
looking like a neatly scrubbed
and tremendously overgrown young
cherub.
"You mean my eyes?" I smiled, j
"It's the eggs—they sputter so I :
always look weepy."
Conversation between Xeal and:
me always was rather sketchy. In i
the old days we understood each ;
other so well that we frequently;
skipped a mental step or two, and j
then sometimes we had to go back
and unravel the "skipping."
Said Xeal, truculently:
"Nothing of the sort, Babbsie. j
I've seen you fry eggs before, j
What's he up to to make you cry?"i
"It's just that he's so_ wonderful." j
I cried, "You wouldn't understand —:
he's so generous it hurts."
"Hurts who? You can't put your i
old fox Xeal off that way, Babbsie. ;
I know men—l do. You're worried. I
I can see that. I guess It's a darn
lucky thing I came to New York
just when I did!"

SATURDAY EVENING. HXHJUSBtrRG TELEGRAPH OCTOBER 5, 1918
By now wo had progressed to a
corner of tho refectory table, and
Xeal was revelling In raspberries
and eggs and toast and cream fla
vored with coffee—all of which he
mingled with royal disdain of the
proper order of procedure.
I handed Xeal sugar for his ber
ries, salt for his eggs, butter for
his toast and then took up the
thread of conversation, using it as
a clue to lead me precisely where I
wanted to go.
"About your coming to New York,
Mr. Hyland—now. Just how did that
happen?" I asked.
Xeal waved a piece of toast in a
large gesture and flourished a
spoonful of raspberries as he re
plied:
"Say, Babbsie, I've got a swell job
—simply swell! Your little old fox
isn't so slow. Who's the chap said
our town was a good place to come
from? Well, I came young—early
—pronto!"
It seemed to me that Neal was
overdoing things a bit, so I decided
to overdo them a bit also and to in
sist on a reply. "Xeal, you haven't
answered me yet. Why did you
come?" I demanded.
"Babbsie, you haven't lost the
trick of frying eggs. You flopped
them just right. Why did I come?
For thirty dollars a week!! Are you
answered, madam? Maybe you don't
think thirty dollars a week is a
swell salary—maybe you don't!"
"What did Father Andrew think
I of your coming?" I demanded.
"What would he think of it with
i you in town here?" questioned Neal
in turn
"Why, of course. Father Andrew
wouldn't mind," I said thought
fully. "He'd expect you to stay
right here with us and he couldn't
help being proud of your earning so
much —thirty dollars. Neal—for a
baby like you."
Xeal rose majestically and
frowned:
' "I'm twenty-two, Anne. They
think boys of twenty-one are men—
'old enough to go over and rush the
Germans. And I've been working
I' in an accountant's ofticq at home
every summer since I was fifteen.
You' know that. I've had a good
job at home, too, since I got out of
ihigh school three years ago. Eigh
jteen per wasn't so bad."
"Eighteen a week out home would |
go almost as far as thirty here." ]
I said, wondering if Neal wouldn't]
be better off at home.
"Well, you know I paid in eight I
a week for board Babbsie. What]
are you going to charge me? II
should think about fifteen, the wayi
prices are in New York. Say, this j
is a swell room—and a swell couch. I
I've struck It rich."
Suddenly I realized that Neal took '
it for granted he was going to stay ]
with me. What would Jim say?
"Listen, dear, I want you to re
main here just as long as you're
comfortable —but I'm not going to!
take money from my own darling!
kid brother," I replied firmly.
"Well. I like that! Say, Babbsie. j
didn't I pay in eight per at home?!
| Don't turn this little old fox loose!
j in New York with too much cash— l
'he might buy himself a gold brick ]
] Say, sis, let's toss up a penny who!
• washes the dishes. The winner!
] dries them."
As we finished the work, Neal
looked around with a complete air
of possession—of belonging.
"They paid me a week in advance
sis," he suddenly said. "Here's my
first fifteen. It's .worth it, Babsie.
My, but you know how to flop eggs
! —and your coffee—yum— yum!"
"I can't take it, Neal money
from my little brother!!"
Neal forced the bills into my
hand.
"Can the sentiment, sis. It's all
right between us, but I'm not going
ito sponge on that husband of
I yours."
"I won't take your money," I said
| stubbornly. "What did father say
i about your plans to pay me?"
"Father said nothing." Neal
loked down at his feet. "He didn't
know I was coming. I got my job
and lit out —suddenly."
"Neal!" I cried in sudden fright.
"Why did you do that?"
"Now, Babbsie, I answered you
long ago. Why? For thirty dol
lars! To get mixed up with the
big city and kind of get lost in it
I want to live here, with your ex-
Lieutenant and you and all your at
tractive friends. Don't ask so many
I questions, Babbsie—l tell you I've
] got my reasons all right! > Ar6 ydu
going to be a good spo'rt and let
me stay?"
Neal's young face wore a look of
deadly earnestness. I realized that
it meant more to him than I knew
to make his home with Jim and me,
and I realized also, with cruel
abruptness, that I must take his
money.
Ii "Neal, I won't ask you to tell me

you like and I'll let you pay me ten
dollars a week—but—but —l'm not
going to tell my husband I'm tak

Neal began to bluster:

do you? That's ,not fair—l can't be I

"Then you can't stay with me, I
Neal."
Neal's eyes met mine challening-1
ly. Our glances clashed for a mo- j
ment and then he looked away.
"All right," he said at last. "This
is the safest place for me. I'll do'
what you say, Babbsie. Now, why:
don't you call up that little Mason I

There was something in my!

me.

ACQUAINTANCE WITHOUT INTRO
DUCTION
DEAR MISS FAIRFAX:
A girl friend has asked me to write '
you and inquire whether it would be I
wrong for her to accept an invitation |
from a soldier whom she knows only •
by sight. She lives near a camp and i
j has to pass it every time she goes to
business. This soldier is always out
side. waves his hand to her and she
waves back. The other day he called
I her over and asked if she would care
. to go out with him some night. She I
said she would let him know in a few,
days.
C. R. I
I thoroughly disapprove of ac- I
I quaintances made in this informal I
'manner, and if your friepd intends to i
accept the soldier's invitation it would |
I be better to go out with him in a
i party. This may seem very dull and
j formal, but conventions have been i/i
--• stttuted for the protection of women
j and they would do better to abide by
] them.
HE IS SARCASTIC
, DEAR MISS FAIRFAX:
• I have been going about with a
] young man for some months, but ;
I lately he acts queerly, at other times
! lie can never do enough to please me.
How can I find out whether he really
cares?
DOWN-HEARTED.
Nothing could be a greater mis
take for a girl than to allow a man
j to set the pace for all the moods,
! and then become wretched or joyous
• accordingly. Have a little independ
! ence of character and when he acts
cool and sarcastic, be indifferent, if
j you are incapable of being cool and
j sarcastic yourself. I am afraid you
j have shown too" plainly that he Is in
! dispensable, and he Is accordingly
! putting a value on something of ;
• which he is sure.
: "UNCERTAIN, COY AND HARD TO j
PI.EASE**
J DEAR MISS FAIRFAX:
I am a young man and dearly love |
a voung girl working In the same con- I
I ce'rn I do. The young woman in ques- j
1 tion is a problem I find impossible to
! solve. I have asked her out numerous I
j times, but-have always been refused.
If I pay attention to any other girl
she says I am forsaking her. Natur-
I ally I stop talking to the others and
I go' back to her. but the same indif-.
ference starts all over again. What
do vou think I should do?
A CONSTANT READER.
I think you are entirely too concilia
tory to make any deep and lasting
i impression on so capricious a girl as
, the one you describe. I should not only
j talk to "the others." but I should take
I them to some of the places of amuse
! ment she declines to attend with you.
j And If this did not bring her to her
I senses I think I would try to find an
other girl less "coy and uncertain."
CONSIDERING HIS OWN HAPPINESS
DEAR MISS FAIRFAX:
A has been married to B for a num
ber of years, they have had two chil
dren whom A loves dearly. Recently
! a woman came into the man's life
whom he loves much more than he
ever loved his wife. He feels that he
cannot live without the other woman,
and yet if he leaves his wife, he fears
he would ruin the lives of his chil
dren. What should he do, sacrifice his
own happiness dr that of his chil
dren?
AN INTERESTED FRIEND.
The man you describe seems to be
entirely wrapped up in his own selfish
ideas of happiness, and to be shirking
the promises he made in marriage en
tirely. In breaking up his home he
would certainly be ruining the lives
of his children and it is doubtful if
he would get any real happiness out
of marrying the second woman. This
has been tried too often and almost
invariably has proved to be a failure.
These grand passions have a way of
wearing thin in this work-a-day
world. He might be happy for a little
while, but the one home built on the
wreck of another seldom offers any
real happiness to anyone concerned.
QUESTION OF ALLOTMENT
DEAR MISS FAIRFAX:
About five years ago my husband
deserted me. and I never heard from
him during that time, but when the
first draft was called I wrote to the
War Department in Washington,
asking if my husband had been draft
ed and they wrote by return mail that
he had and was in France with his
regiment. Now, Miss Fairfax, don't
you think I. as his wife, am entitled
to his allotment? Kindly -advise.
READER.
It would seem if you have never
been divorced that you are entitled
to an allotment, but I do not know |
what the rule Is In the case of separa- |
tions. Write to the War Risk Insur
ance, Treasury Department. Washing- I
ton, D. C.

Church Suppers
Church suppers can be very g6od
things from a food conservation
standpoint. Perhaps the least waste
of food is accomplished by the ca
feteria system where each helps
himself to the food which he de
sires. By this time most people are
pretty well trained not to take I
things which they will not eat. These
menus come from the Unted States
food administration and may be
helpful:
Baked beans and brown bread,
escalloped potatoes au gratin, bar
ley or oatmeal muffins, cabbage sal
ad, apple sauce, ice cream, (other
sweeteners than sugar), cake, (vic
tory (lour).
Sliced cold meat creamed pota
toes, cornmeal spoon bread, buttered
carrots, string bean pickles, floating
land custard.
Potato and meat pie, green peas
or baked tomatoes, victory bread
and butter, cabbage and pepper sal
|ad, baked pears, oatmeal cookies.
Advice to the Lovelorn
BY BEATRICE FAIRFAX
SHAM, SHE MARRY AGAIN?
DEAR MISS FAIRFAX:
It seems always the young that ask
and get your advice; please spare a
few minutes for one that has passed
her youth. lam an American woman
some years this side of the half-cen
tury mark; I have been'twice widow
ed, have children grown and doing
for themselves. Would you think it
selfish if I married again?. Not that
I have anyone in mind, but I ask the
| question because I love my home.
Love to do for someone near to me,
[ and as the children grew up, they left,
and I am lonely.
I am a good housekeeper, good cook,
dress neatly, and make my own
clothes, too. Like books and music,
but do not care very much for society.
I do not want simply to have my fu
ture assured, as I am capable of run
ning a boardinghouse profitably. I
want only a home and to make one
for others.
E. M. B.
As your children are grown and
doing for themselves, I do not see hdw
you would be shirking your maternal
duties in marrying again. Indeed,
after re-reading your list of qualifica
tions as a wife and housekeeper, it
would appear the height of selfishness
for one so gifted in these require
ments to remain single.
IMPROVES ON NATURE
DEAR MISS FAIRFAX:
Am 17 years of age and a young
man has asked me to marry him. My
mother deserted me when I was nine
years old and two years ago I heard
she died a widow. My friend says my
father must be dead, too, as her death
notice specified widowhood, therefore,
I would need no one's consent to
marry.
Do you think this young man has
a right to tell me what to do? 1
use paint and powder, lipsticks, cold
cream and have my hair cut on the
side. And I shave my eyebrows to
make them arch. My friend says
youth is beautiful and needs nothing
to improve it. I told him other girls
do these things and if I can't do as I
wish, I don't want to marry him. He
I tells me he does this for my good, as
I have no mother.
M. B.
| Your letter strikes me as a bit too
I flighty for one considering the serious
step of marriage. You seem to think
life is arranged on the plane of a
"beauty parlor" and so it is for some
women, hut they are not the women
who count. My sympathy is entirely
with the young man. He must have
extraordinary forebearance to be wil
ling to marry a girt who does all
these thing to herself. I should think
he would feel as if he were courting
a figure in a hairdresser's window.
I INSISTS TOO MUCH ON RIGHTS
I DEAR MISS FAIRFAX:
| Mr. A and Miss B. are engaged. A.
, has an appointment to call on B. at
I 2 o'clock Sunday afternoon and B.
|is aware of Al's cbming. Shortly be
| fore that time B. is requested by a
| married sister to accompany her in
her automobile to visit a cousin.
; There Is no reason at all for going
' just at that particular moment, as no
: previous appointment was made by
either B. or her sister. B. is per
! suaded to go and leaves with her
1 sister in the automobile. A. arrives
I at B.'s house promptly at. 2 o'clock.
1 He is informed by B.'s father that
she left a request for A. to meet her
.at her cousin's. B.'s father also
i states that if A. wants to, he can go
and meet 8., but if he prefers, he can
wait until B. returns. A. depides to
wait until she comes back.
1. Was It good manners or proper
for B. to go away under the circum
stances?
2. Was it good manners or proper
for A. to remain at B.'s house and
await her return?
M. M.
It would appear from this letter
j that both these young people are
too much inclined to stand on thel?
, "rights." To maintain the amiable
relationship that Is necessary fot;
I people who propose spending their
; lives together it is better to think
more of concessions and less of
| "rights."
! B„ to hold strictly to the letter
lof the law sliould have informed
! A. she was breaking her engagement,
j but doubtless felt that she knew him
i well enough to take this little liberty,
i It was entirely optional on A.'s part
i where he should spend the interven
! ing time, though he might have been
! sufficiently acquiescent to do the
] thing B. suggested, and call for her.
The entire matter seems to me un
worthy of contention or ill-felling.
