Readiivf all ike farcajy llPfl "When a Girl Marries" By ANN LISLE A New, Romantic Serial Dealing With the Absorbing Problem of a Girl Wife OHAPETER OCCI On the morning after the complete fiasco we made of trying to reconcile Virginia and Pat, Jim came to me with an air of finality. "We've hashed this thing over often enough, Anne. Here's my last word about Virginia Dalton. Her insolence is more than I can stand. I'm through with her. And unless you are tne meekest idiot outside a feeble-minded institute, you've finished with her too." "I don't think it matters whether we're through with Virginia or not." X ventured. "She appears to have finished with us." "What do you mean?" demanded Jim. "I telephoned this morning while you were in the bath. And Amanda reported that Mrs. Dalton could not speak to me. I know the message was that Virginia would act speak to me. only Amanda couldn't bring herself to repeat that." "So she lets servants into the fam ily feud!" stormed Jim. "Well, lis ten to me. Virginia's my sister, but If I hear of your humbling yourself before her again. I'll —I'll " Jim stopped suddenly and came over to catch me in his arms. "I can't threaten you, dear. But you won't humiliate me?" he begged, using Virginia's own word. "You won't hurt me by putting yourself in a position to be flouted and snubbed and insulted by her again, will you?" "No, Jim. I won't." I replied. "We've done all we can. Now we have to let Virginia 'gang her ain gait' to destruction, if she likes. Pat's such a dear so gentle and chivalrous under all his recklessness and boldness. What's to become of him now?" "Oh, in the end I suppose we'll all be dragged through the mire of the divorce court," replied Jim, with what I felt was prophetic vision. And with this he marched, oft to his day's work, leaving me to go on with the work I had cut. out for my self. But after our failure with Vir ginia I didn't start out very hopefully for my uplift work with Daisy Con don. Still, after lunch, when I piloted Daisy into a smart shop where I thought we could find a good-looking, ready-to-wear blue crepe de chine, I found myself enjoying my own sensa tions and the situation as well. Shop ping is a panacea for all ills with some women. It has always been a i bugbear to me. But the magic effect ot the right colors and the right lines j on Daisy gave me a feeling of power which my own ability to spend money | Hair On Face Xk^Uiraefe Mtury kdr SMwtks en t<*s bi m an 1 mrmm eooa boiowe mum ndhrlsflr stn inly removed tram Ike ssrbee ef Ike ekifcjrhe ehjiu Ikenah" "ifr* 1* to attack It —J— ike akin.

A pretty blue one with a butterfly in gold and rose caught my eye. "One of these would just set off your dress," I said enthusiastically. "The lighter blue and the hint of vivid oolor ing is just what you need. Let's se lect one." "No, thank you," said Daisy, al most graciously. "First of all, you've done so much for me that I couldn't look myself in the face if I grafted any more to-day. But besides that, I hate any Jewelry but the best" ~ The brazenness of it stunned me. I didn't seem to be succeeding in my scheme of filling Daisy with shame and loathing for what she had done. "Have you heard from Carl?" she asked, as we strolled down the avenue together. "No, have you?" I replied absent mindedly, racking my brain to think how to fill in the rest of the after noon. Daisy had been as easy to fit as to please, and her dress was purchased in the first shop we visited. Now there was an hour or so I must dispose of before I could suggest tea and then decently dismiss my guest. But Daisy was fairly spilling words now in her sudden eagerness to reply to my careless question. "Yes, I've heard from Carl three times. He seems to realize what we mean to each other as soon as we're separated. I had a postal and a let ter from Montreal and another card from Toronto. I guess I'll hear again when I get home. And you haven't had a word?" The eagerness and bravado com bined in Daisy's fluttering sentences made me want to giggle and then top it off by shaking her. How could the little idiot think a woman married to my Jim would care whether some one else got two picture postals from Carl Booth—or fifty ! Just then a sign swinging out quaintly from a door-vtiy caught my eye. "Thomas J. Mason and Com pany," it read. "Antiques." I had known but forgotten that Tom was starting a new shop uptown, and here we had stumbled across it It offered the needed solution to my problem of how to dispose of an hour or so. I'd take Daisy In and let her mouse about the place a bit and at the same time I'd be offering Tom a courtesy. Jim would like this too—a trio of birds with one stone. So I trotted my indifferent little Daisy into the shop. I hardly dared hope Tom, the philander, would be even decently courteous to the drab little thing. I'd never seen him with a completely unattractive woman. I wondered how he'd act. The climb up the steep old-fash ioned stairs brought a bit of color to Daisy's face, and with a little gesture that was honest and unself-consclous she swept oft her ugly hat when we reached the odd old studio with . its stained glass sky-light. The reds and blues of the odd lighting accented her color. Her dark hair had slipped into moist ringlets, and, freed from the ugly hat, Daisy's broad forehead showed quaint and childlike. All in a moment Tom's studio was working miracles before my eyes. But the studio and Its owner had other surprises in store for pie. (To Be Continued.)

Furthermore, they are proud of it and compare feet to see who has the largest, according to the Rev. F. D. Hawks Pott, president of the Uni versity of St. John's, which is run at Shanghai by the Episcopal church and one of the most effective aids to educating the new China to be found in all the confines of the new republic. The practice of binding the feet of Chinese women so that they would be small enough to please the masculine eye was one of the hard est of old customs even to start eradicating. The athletic exercises in which Chinese girls at Episcopal and other church schools must par ticipate was the entering wedge here, | for a girl with bound feet could not run, jump and leap. In 1895 the Natural Foot Society, or Tien Tsu Hui, was organized in Shanghai by women of ten different nationalities. The management of the affairs of that society are now entirely in the hands of the Chinese. Branches have been established at many cen ters and a monthly magazine de voted to the matter is p.ubllshed. The women of new China are op posed to the custom, as are the young men who have received an enlightened education. They want wives who can be helpmates to them, who can walk out with them as well as work with them. The time has come when, instead of being proud of her "golden lilies," as small, bound feet were called, the Chinese girl strives to conceal the fact that her feet have been bound, by wearing large shoes and padding the extra space with cotton. One Vill sometimes see groups of Chinese women comparing their feet to see who can boast of having the largest. This is particularly true of native women who have become Christians or who have been edu | cated in the Christian schools. WIIX GIVE BAND CONCERT. New Cumberland, Pa., Sept. 17.

BIGAMY SHOWS , ANJNCREASE Growing Disposition in Eng land to Treat as Venial Offense London, Sept, 17. lncrease In bigamous marriages throughout the ■United Kingdom, much more pro nounced since the end of the war, is causing grave concern, and there is a growing disposition to treat big amy as a venial offence. . Sir Bernard Mallet, the registrar general, is credited with the state ment that English marriage laws af ford less security against bigamy than the laws of almost any other civilized state. His department has prepared proposals for their amend ment, but nothing has been done to carry them into effect. A new act of Parliament is necessary, and Sir Bernard suggests as a preliminary that some plan be outlined by which accurate information concerning the principals in a proposed marriage may be obtained by the competent authorities before the ceremony can be performed. For marriage by license in Eng land it is required that both parties make solemn declaration that they know of no impediment to their union, that they have resided for fifteen days in the district and, if they are minors, the consent of guardian or parents has been ob tained. But no solemn declaration is required for such material par ticulars as name, condition as to marriage, age, rank and residence. Lowell and Eliot Issue Direct Appeal New York, Sept. 17.
