~ : " When a Girl " By ANN LISLE A New, Romantic Serial Dealing With the Absorbing Problem of a Girl Wife CHAPTER CCCXXIII. i (Copyright, 1919, by Star Feature Syndicate, Inc.) Probably showing my pearl ring to Phoebe and Neai was what turn ed my thoughts to Daisy and the day when she restored stolen property. 1 suppose I can never look at my beautiful ring again without vision ing the poor little thing cowering ugainst the wall in loathing of her self and horror at what slie had, done. That led me straight to the blue crepe de chine dress. Daisy had brought it back. But I was sure that when I hurried her, out of the kitchen to avoid Jim she; hadn't carried it away with her! There hadn't as a matter of fact, been time to cross the room and get it. Moreover, in her frame of mind, ; Daisy wouldn't have dreamed of i taking my gift a second time with- 1 out my insisting—nor yet if 1 had! insisted. And from the moment she j bundled it down on a chair until , now I had completely forgotten the! dress. Puzzling about It got me so nerv ous I went back to my room and hunted all through my closet. Then I rummaged by bureau Next I went over my closet again more carefully and, finally, emptied tliei bureau drawers one at a time, i! looked in the most unlikely places. No blue crepe de chine dress. Then I summoned Hedwig and asked her, if she remembered putting it away., No satisfaction there. "What am I to do?" I asked my self. "I want the poor little kiddio: to have her nicest dress. But I can't call her up and ask her if she took it What am I to do?" Suddenly I had the answer: Ask ' Jim. This fitted In with something that ; had been in the back of my mind • for a long time. It gave me the opening I needed. And it clinched | a feeling I had partly expressed to Jim this very day. From now on I wasn't going to run things. I j believed in Jim's strength, and I felt that one of the happiest priv ileges of our marriage was the one 1 that gave me my boy's strength to lean on. Business might shut me out from 1 his life and thoughts now and then, but I needn't deliberately shut Jim ' out from my life and thoughts and make a houble chasm of misun derstanding between us. Only to day I had told my boy that I trust- I ed him and trusted him com- i pletely.

Somehow it didn't suggest much to me then, for I was only holding myself in leash. I was very anxious to blurt out the Daisy siory. "Jimmie, boy, I've a confession to make." "Oh. you have?" said Jim, calmly. "It's about time. Go ahead." Something caught me by the throat. Evidently Jim was expect ing some grave disclosure from me. But what? (To Be Continued.)

B 2 I HXTURISBURG TFTf TOR APH Little Talks by Beatrice Fairfax There are a great many ways of ; falling In love. Some of them ; work—that is lead to staying In I love. Some don't. And since all j waste Is foolish, even tragic, why ; not try to avoid emotional waste? ! Nothing can be more useless, | more devastating, than unhappy love. The wear and tear of caring madly for some one and then find f ing that it wasn't deeply as well and | that it hasn't any lasting qualities affects different folks differently, I but it affects them all unpleasantly, • to say the least. Cynicism, shame, chagrin, bitter ness, instability, Insincerity, frivol ! ity—a long list of weaknesses are likely to come along and attack the folks who manage their love affairs so ill that they get to thinking that love itself is an ill-favored and tragic thing and the worst curse Adam and Eve left as our inalien- I able inheritance. j A great deal of this might be ! avoided. Knowing that the after j math of a love affair that works out wrong, why shouldn't we be | practical enough to strive for love l j that is right and so works out right? How can you tell? Remember the old saying, "You | can't always sometimes tell," Well, I it's like that. But, at least, one can remove some of the elements of chance and avoid the worst pitfalls. Let's put little Dan Cupid on the witness stand and see if he won't have to tell us which are his poi soned arrows. There's "love at first sight." Johnny goes to a dance and meets a girl in rose pink in the moonlight. She can follow all his most difficult fox-trot steps, and she's a breath less listener to his tales of how he won the hundred-yard dash his senior year in high school. You can't found much permanent happiness on a mutual taste for fox-trotting and interest In tales of athletic prowess. But Johnny and his rose-pink lady don't stop to con i sider that until they have been en- J gaged two weeks and find rainy j evenings dragging on their hands j after they've told each other a few i times how they love each other, j They've nothing vital in common. il But in sharing the biological pull of a mutual attraction they didn't stop to find that out until it was almost too late. Another Kind j There's the love of long habit, j Friendship drifts along until every one thinks it's more than friendship and then to oblige the public two people undertake to turn bread and butter (nice wholesome bread and butter, too) into chocolate- cake | (and chocolate cake of the soggiest i and least digestible), j There's passion—-sometimes that 'comes along disguised so prettily j that it looks like the "original i something just as good." j There's propinquity. "I must love some one and it might as well be you," says youth. There's loneliness. "Every one else is mated and why shouldn't I i be?" asks shyness. I There's pride. "I'm not going to | have every one think I'm too un ! attractive to appeal to any one," ! says bitterness. i There's the old spirit of wanting what you can't have. The com j bative spirit, the spirit that won't j take a dare. It chases after the unattainable, and if by chance It reverses the verdict and makes that unattainable attainable, It stops wanting just as soon as it can possess. That's one of the most prevalent, most mischievous, most utterly per nicious ways of falling in love with the absolute certainty of falling out again. And it's very human, being all tied up with such admirable things as ambition and pride in achievement. But to want what you want—un j til you get it, and then to hurt .someone else by brutal Indifference : to the obligation to him which you ; voluntarily assumed, is little short of criminal. A "slow but sure" isn't a bad rule I in any game. But in the pursuit of love which shall he true love and so lasting j love, "slow but sure" is about the I best rule I've ever heard. I If love wants to work out into i its normal expression: marriage of j the ideal sort, it must be composed ! of many elements. ! The feeling you have for the per | son you think you love may turn out to be friendship or attraction or infatuation or interest, but you ! can't build a life partnership on : any of them. } Give your love the third degree and turn in an honest Indictment, before you put one of love's Imper sonators in a position to pass an unhappy judgment on you.

LIFE'S PROBLEMS ARE DISCUSSED She was married when a mere girl in her second year at hig'h school. Her husband, a liarum - scarum lad little older than herself, de serted her almost immediately. She fell into ill-health, and since her family no longer recognized her or would have anything to do with her, and since she had neither money nor friends, the .only refuge open to her was the public hospital of a neigh boring city. For weeks she was desperately ill, and during that time her baby died from lack of nourishment and the care which under other circum stances she would have given it. When she finally left the institu tion, she found herself facing the world alone and penniless, still weak and broken from the sorrow and suffering through which she had passed. She was a country girl utterly unsophisticated in the ways of the world, and as the daughter of well to-do parents had never been obliged to work and so was with out any sort of training or voca tion. A weaker spirit would have surrendered and gone down before the stark hopelessness of the fu ture. But she pluckily gathered the shreds and fragments of her life to gether, and started in to make a new career. •"After my discharge from the hos pital," she writes me, "I secured a position as a servant and worked for four months in order to secure my railway .fare to another city where I was absolutely unknown. "There, after various vicissitudes, I finally obtained the chance to enter a large and well-known hos pital , s a probationer, and with hard sV 'v eventually completed the course was graduated as a trained l "About vrffs time I received the report of my husband's death in an automobile accident, and since there was no longer any obstacle in the way I accepted the attentions and ultimately married a very fine young man with whom I had be come acquainted. There were no secrets between us; I told him frankly and fully my whole history, nnd he was big enough to overlook my follies and mistakes and take me as I was. "Since then my life has been one of perfect happiness. I have a de voted husband, a lovely home, and am the mother of two beautiful children, a girl of seven and a boy of six. In the town where we live I am universally respected, and have a wide circle of dear friends. "You can Imagine my consterna tion and despair, therefore, when I tell you that about three months ago while engaged in Red Cross work at a base hospital I was as signed to duty one night in a ward filled with returned soldiers, and upon the first chart that I examined I found the name of my former hus band. "Hoping against hope that there might be some mistake, I made in quiries regarding the identity of the man, only to become more and more convinced that it must be he.

There could no longer be any question or doubt, it was the husband X had married in my girl hood. "Just in from the operation table and still under the influence of ether, there was no chance of his recognizing me or knowing of my presence; but even so, I did not wait for more than the one look, but hurried away from the place as fast as my feet could carry me. Then I simply collapsed. "Ever since my days have been a dream of horror. My heart is broken. I dare not tell my husband, and T have no one else to whom I can turn. I do not know what to do. I can expect no relief or assistance from my people, I am sure. I have never heard from them since I left home, and I have heen told that my name is never mentioned by them.

DEAR MISS FAIRFAX: 1 am twenty-one and in love with a man of nineteen. He has told me that he loves me. Now, Miss Fairfax, I have never told this young man my age. He believes I am his age. Whenever the subject of mar riage comes up he always says that he is young yet and intends to see more of life before he marries. As 1 have written above, I love this voting man and I would gladly wait forever for him, but everyone tells me that I am a fool to bother with him, because he is too young, and that if I waited a few years for him he would still he a young man and would be looking for some one younger than I. Two years difference in age is nothing at all. One of the happiest couples I know the wife is twelve years older. Nineteen is certainly too young for a man to marry, and his decision to wait is sensible. If you care enough about him, why wait and see what developments qpme In the next few years? The dlfferenre In your ages Is so slight that I do not think It makes any rtference whether you tell him or not.
