when one is very much excited. Any way, here are the points on how to get angry in the correct way. And why do I talk of this at all? Oh, merely be- cause l have seen three perfectly stupid outbursts of temper on the part of friends of mine today The first occurred on the street car. The conductor didn't stop at the right place. Needless to say the woman didn't gain anything. but she made herself the laughing stock of the whole car so that 1 was ashamed to be with her. The second Outburst was with a child, and it was the stupidest of all be- cause you never accomplish a thing by getting excited with child any more than you do with a horse that you are driving: both need a firm hand and patience. The third was with a servant most undignifed of all-and, to make things a little worse, the mistress actually

I gather ed that the newcomer was not sure that Miss Mousely would return at 5. but she hoped so. I managed to instill few more grains of doubt in her mind. Finally after what seemed ages the clock struck 5; then the hands showed ten minutes past. In the inner room the painter was working himself into a fit. He would not even deign to come out and join in the conversation.

But next door was a fire station. and on the other side of that to my horror, stood 12. The fire station occupied the place of my friends house.

Then. indeed, I doubt ed the evidence of my senses. walked up and down in front of that engine house as if. overcome by my persistence, it might vanish and give way to my friends s dwelling if I stayed there long enough. I tried several other doors that seemed wonderfully familiar and interviewed countless janitors; still nothing came of 1t. She lived in no other house. and the house where she had lived had apparent ly been swallowed up by the fire station, The feeling it gave me was ghastly. finally went home, took a soothing powder and went to bed resolved that I should either see the family doctor or the girl herself as soon as I was awake the fol- lowing morning.

 But I was too relieved to care what she said.

A girl l know lost one of the best chances she had in the matrimonial line because the man heard her voice. shrill. angry and vulgar. as she raised it in dispute with her sister while he waited in the adjoining room to have his card sent upstairs.

An Unconvsntional Call.


 And. speaking of afternoon calls, re- member a slightly unconventional thing did once-not that the memory worries me; memories of that sort hardly ever debut here it is: I had just left Nan Flittabout's house, and was slightly ex- hilarated by her studio tea; she puts pep permint in 1t, you know. Therefore I did not see myself going quietly home and reading a good book for an hour or so be- fore dinner. Instead l resolved to see whether could rake up some one else to call upon. I happened to be in the Fifties. and it occurred to me that a year and a half ago ! had met and promised to call upon certain Miss Mousely, who had a studio in. let us say. Carnegie hall for the sake of giving this particular temple of music and the fine arts a name. I instantly became enthusiastic over the prospect of visiting Miss Mousely, and within twenty minutes I was ringing the bell of her studio. There was the dangling of a harp as the door swung open-why do they always tie harps to their doors ? and a very distinguished. handsome looking man stood before me, lowing, palette in hand.
 "Why-er-ah," I stammered, ''I thought this was the studio of Miss Sarah Mousely."
 'Tt is." he responded. with a twinkle in the eye. Wont you step in and wait She will be back at G."
 I suddenly made up my mind that I must see Miss Mousely or expire: so I entered and trailed mT way into a chair. From his explanation it appeared that he owned the studio three afternoons a I week.
 Well, we became very good friends. He made me stand in the light so that he 1 might study my profle, and you know that when an artist reaches that point l Sudeuly the door bell rang. We both jumped. No, 1t was not Miss Mouselv, but 1t was an old maid friend of Nils, Mousely who felt she must see her, and -yeS, she would walt

seems to me, I would look for if I were man would be that the girl could oc- casionally broaden out and take mans point of view of things; that she could leave behind her natural "hnikinesS.
 And 1t goes without saying that I should
 want her to be a woman of her word,
 with fine sense of honor and hatred of shams and hypocrisy. If more men would make sure that the women they marry have the common virtue. too, of loyalty there would be fewer divorces; but, strange to say, a man hardly ever has the sense to probe for that particular trait.
 At any rate the woman I should pick out would be a good chum even should the honeymoon chance to wane. She would not be fretful or nagging or go domesticated that she had no mind for other things. And here's another point I would not ask her whether she could sew or cook, but I would think twice be- fore I married a girl who had no taste in fixing herself up or who could not draw the window curtains together in cozy manner and poke up the fire and ar range the chairs In attractive groups. That may sound trival; but, believe me- it is not. The girl who lacks taste-and alas, so many women do!-is q very poor irritation to live with her. It is easy enough to have a pretty home and dainty house gowns if you have plenty of money, but where you need downright taste Is when you have to do contriving. Wall paper and carpets of just the right shade mean so much when one is tired from a hard days work, and a daintily dressed blond or brunette head set off by a gown of inexpensive material, but just the right color. certainly makes a diff ference in a mans feelings.

SCORES KILLED
And Seventy-five Injured
in Wreck on Southern

At about 10 O'Clock this Saturday
morning train No. 10 (known as Ross
Smiths train and No. 10, the fast pas
senger train from Chattanooga to New
York via Asheville, were literally torn
to pieces in a head-end collision just
west of New Market while running at
a terrific speed. The two trains met
on what is known as Lost Creek curve
and were practically together before
they could see each other. No 10 was
in charge Of Engineer Cain and Con-
ductor Will Caldwell, and they are
supposed to have overlooked their or
ders. The fremen and engineers of
both trains we're killed. About forty
were killed outright and one hundred
more or less seriously injured. This
is one of the most frightful collisions
that has occurred on the Southern in
Tennessee in many years.
