~Gooa Fellow" Girls.

The "eool fellow" girl will lend her money and her clothes to other girls just to show how generous she is.
 She will spend her money foolishly and get ill debt. 50 that people will not think her mean.
 In time sile will get to despise econ omy thrift and prudence and will church or Sunday school.
 Cheap, loud people will begin to seem to her tie only ones to emulate. The quiet refinement that should mark ev cry Wonlun's; dress and manner entire ly disappears, says Kate Masterson in lhe Chicago Inter Ocean.
 She doesn't care what people think. not she. She will not take dare and so becomes known as lone of the boys" What an unpleasant appella- tion! Almost as hateful as that other name for the good fellow girl-"thor- oughbred."
 Some mems idea of a thoroughbred" is something exactly opposed to the sort of woman they would choose for a wife
 It means loudness of dress and man. ner, bold stare, slangy mode of speech, general lack of modesty and good taste.
 Don't try to be a thoroughbred or one of the boys, please. Don't be q good fellow. Be a lady.

Along Certain Lines She Is Indica-
 tive of Feminine Progress.
 She is not an evil, indicative of race suicide. She is a statutary step. She indicates progress. Marshall Field, twice married, declares that marriage is a good thing if one gets the right woman.
 American bachelor girls are applying Mir. Fields theory and waiting for the right one.
 In the so called good old days" they didn't wait; hence the seed of the di- vorce evil and inferior offspring the genuine seed of race suicide.
 In those days they married the eligi- ble whom parents selected or the sub stantal one, who offered q good home, in order To escape the awful gnominy of becoming an old maid And then came unhappincss.

BE SYMPATHETIC.
The Results Will Make Your own
 Life Brighter and No5Ier.

We must all realize that this life is have had the good luck to escape your share of it you are very fortunate.
 But do not on that account allow yourself to grow cold hearted and un- sympathetic to others.
 Those poor others. Their lot is often so hard, so lonely, so full of misery.
 We are here to heal the wounds and bind the broken heart and the only way we can do this is by being kind, loving and sympathetic.
 A few words of love will do more to help a sufferer than money sometimes, for heartsickness is much harder to help than hunger and poverty. Show interest in others; try to help them; go out of your way to tighten the burden of the heavily laden.
 Do not hesitate to whisper your kindly thoughts in their ears Don't pass by on the "other side' If you are strong, then be merciful, says Wom- ans Life
 Remember that we all look at life from different standpoints, and what might appear like grain of mustard seed in your path to you is an almost insurmountable obstacle to your weak CT sister.
 The more she shrinks the more neces- sity for you to step in and help her on her way with genuine sympathy and loving sisterly words and acts.

MOznrt's5 Memory.

Mozart had memory for music and for nothing else. On attending the papal mass at the Sistine chapel he was greatly impressed with the mu- sical service and asked for copy, but was told none could be given him, as the music was not allowed to go out. He went to the next service, listene attentively, went away and wrote dow the whole from memory. When Don Giovanni was first performed, there was not time to copy part for the harpsichord, so Mozart conducted the entire opera, about three hours long, and played harpsichord accompani- ment to the songs and choruses with put note of music to assist his mem- ory.

JAPANESE F0RGETS HUNGER

Restaurant Proprietor AngriIy De-

THE missing luncheon, or, why the

title of the little drama which was en-
acted on the Mason stage yesterday
afternoon. The principal comedian
in it was a Japanese waiter from a
cafe near there, and the victims of his
wiles were the members of the merry,

but as gay as their titles justified one
in believing. That it turned into al
most a tragedy, for the Japanese put a
fitting finale upon the whole affair.
The chorus had been working since
early in the forenoon, smoothing the
last wrinkles out of it's tights and put
ting the finishing touches on it's com

was considerable to do, and little time
to do it in, and so, to avoid a layoff

BUILDING at Venice

Mrs. George Sibley president of the
Guaranty Realty company at Venice,
states that she has more demands for
five and siX-room cottages than she
is able to supply and that her COM
pany has induced number of clients
to build upon property instead of hold
ing the same for speculation.
The Venice of America Land company
is promoting buildings in many sections
of the beach by erecting cottages, and
while not engaged directly in the con-
tracing business are building a num-
ber of modern up-to-date residences.
They have a number of fine sand lots
well located on which they are willing
to arrange for buildings to be erected
and wait indefinitely for their pay for
the lots. This method will stimulate
those who are desirous of securing a
beach cottage on exceptionally easy
terms. The Abbot Kinney COM
pany is loaning money to those who
have purchased lots from them In
amounts sufficient to erect such build
ings as will meet the building restric-
tions. This has also stimulated the
building in certain directions.
New tracts are being opened for sub
division and while the sales have been
in a measure satisfactory much inn
provement is looked for in this direc-
ton in the very near future, as in
quiries' for this class of property is
materially improving over the con-
ditions prevailing two weeks ago.
1t can be safely predicted that the
summer season will be the largest In
the history of California beaches.

PRETTY GIRL IS
ANXIOUS TO DIE
DISCL0SES MOTIVE FOR At
TEMPTED SUICIDE
Sweetheart of Minnie kramer Writes
Harsh Letter and Lassie Throws
Herself Beneath Electric
Car Wheels

The pretty young German girl who
attempted suicide beneath the wheels
of Moneta avenue car Sunday night
was identified yesterday as Minnie
Kramer, aged 49, formerly a dress
maker in San Francisco.
When taken to the receiving hos
pital she gave the name of Annie Fie-
berger and refused to give any infor-
nation about her reason for wishing
to seek death.
By means of letter she wrote yes
terday to Mrs. Harvey, residing at 649
South Hill street, her identity was es-
tablished.
She told Mrs. Harvey, when the lat
ter called to see her, of her determina-
ton to die.
1t was learned through the police ma
tron that the girl was formerly in love
with COLORADO man, supposed to be
Henry Meyer, living at Sedalia.
1t was said that the two were in San
Francisco before the earthquake and
that they plighted their troth.
Meyer is supposed to have gone to
Colorado and from there wrote let
ter that limited at a separation from
the girl.
What the contents of the letter were
the girl refused to say, but she ad-
mitted that the tone was harsh.
At the same time she declared with
spirit that she never loved the man
and was only wounded at the tone of
his reply to her.
Mrs. Harvey said she knew little
about Miss Kramer, other than what
she told her in the matron's room at
the police station.
Miss Kramer left San Francisco at
the time of the earthquake and came
as a refugee to this city.
The girl secured employment at Ava
lon, Catalina, but returned from there
Saturday, evidently i'm a despondent
frame of mind.
Brooding over the troubles incident
to the San Francisco disaster and
grieved by the alleged harsh letter of
Meyer, the girl threw herself in front
Of a Moneta avenue car at Fortieth and
Moneta avenue.
She was carried to the receiving
hospital where her injuries were found
to be slight.
She remained uncommunicative until
yesterday All night she tossed about
in her bed and threatened to beat her
brains out against the wall.
Matron Gilbert directed a trusty 10
watch the young woman, for fear she
would put her threat into operation.
SO far as known Miss Kramer has
no relatives in this country and her
only friends in this city are chance ac-
auaintances like Mrs. Harvey
Believing the girl demented she viii
probably be taken TO the county hos
pital and later examined for insanity

We knew it was wrong but we didn't
stop to think"
A box of tools to be used as evidence
was taken to the central police station.
1t contained a lot of tools, a small
dynamo and other articles used in re-
pair shops and by carpenters.
Shed No Tears
The value of all the articles is about
$25. 1t is claimed one of the boys sold
some tools and bought a pair of roller
skates, but so far as known there is
little evidence that the boys were en-
deavoring to obtain money.
The boys looked crestfallen as they
gave their names to Desk Sergeant Nc
Clure, but no tears were shed and they
answered readily all the questions put
to them.
The boys We're very anxious not to be
classed as boy bandits and carefully
explained that there was no thought in
their minds other than to establish
little shops of their own, with which
to earn money.
So far as known there is no record
against any of the lads and the police
stated that they would all probably be
placed on probation.

FILE PETITION
FOR ANNEXATION
Residents of Territory From East
Hollywood to Eagle Rock Hope
to Accompany CoIegrove
in Consolidation

Additional petitions for annexation
to Los Angeles were yesterday received
by the city council and referred to
the committee of the whole.
These petitions ask that certain ter
ritory be added to that included in the
first petitions for the annexation of
Cahuenga valley.
The added territory includes the
Ranches Los Cienegas and San Raph-
ael and some government sections and
extends from East Hollywood to Eagle
Rock
The Cahuenga valley people who
started the rush for annexation are
willing that this territory Shall be
added to theirs in the special cleo
ton for annexation which the council
will call probably some time during
the month. The added territory cares
as little about the water question as
does Cahuenga valley and only on that
account was IL privileged to come in
with the original petition.
Residents of Cahuenga valley are
very anxious that no territory lacking
water shall be voted on at the same
time that their demand for anenxatlon
comes before the people. They fear
that their interests would be jeopar-
died il other territories that need
water should be voted on at the same
time as their application.
Petitions for the annexation OF par
cells OF land extending from Highland
park to Glendale and east to Boyle
Heights and southwest of the city
which were so anxious to be part
Of Los Angeles about two weeks ago
have not yet been presented. Those
who represented these different ter
ritories promised with enthusiasm that
they would have their petitions ready
for action by the council last Thursday
morning

on the present senatorial campaign
which ends next winter cannot be fore
casted at this time.

general satisfaction all over Kansas,
Mr.. Coburn being probably the most
popular man in the republican party in
the state.
