"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 |

WEDNESDAY EVENING,
and bring this change to pass aug
mented delightfully.
•As we wire leaving the shop
where we had selected not only the
blue dress, but a pretty blue hat faced
In white we passed a counter where
there was a display of enamel lockets
on narrow white ribbons with little
enamel slides to match. 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.

CHINESE WOMEN
LIKE BIG FEET
They Are Getting Away From
Old Custom of Bind
ing Them
Shanghai, Sept. 17.—The Chris
tian women of China have big feet
—as feet in China go.
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.

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.
