Nearly Caught by Several Per-

BY THE MISSING MISS.

Well, of all the mistakes made by
the amateur detectives seeking me and
the $50 prize / have to award / think
those made at the Four Corners yes
terday afternoon were the most ridicu-
lous. A few minutes after 4 o'clock |
was standing in front of the trunk
store when two young women rushed
up to me. and the way they jumbled
those words, prescribed below, was a
the Missing Miss it sounded like they
were trying to tell a funny story and
were interrupted by Mysteries.
OF course. I told them that they were
wrong. Then, instead of correcting
themselves they plunged madly at
nearly every other woman who passed
and accused them of being me. Had
they studied the proper phrases thor
oughly hey would have been $50
ahead.
After this incident I walked over to
the stores on Market street and as l
was coming back, and while l was in
front of the Goerke store, a photog-
rapher took my picture. 1 hope it
comes out all right. Then 1 walked up
the shady side of Broad street, just as
| said would. to the Hahne store, went
in and looked at some laces they were
advertising at five cents a yard, and
came out on the street. After looking
in the windows | walked back to the
-Four Corners, went into the drug store
and had a glass of soda water. Then
l walked back on Broad street and
when / again returned to Market street
l crossed over to the cigar store and
hen over to the tailor shop and to the
trunk store, over to the drug store COR
ned and then back up Broad street.
Boy Right, But Is Barred.
At the Four Corners l saw ever so
many people looking for me. They were
certainly a puzzled lot. ] was APP
preached seven times in all, but the
words seemed to be puzzlers. | was
stopped one by a lad of not more than
IL, who had the words right, but boys
under 16 are barred from the contest.
All of the others, with the exception of
one. who did not have a copy of THE
EVENING STAR so l could see it, had
the words wrong.

that may make me stay away, and that
is a tentative engagement / ave to go

flesh is torn almost from her bones. 1t
was only by good fortune that she kept
her head down, else the fighting bulldog

The great question In a mans
mind nowadays Is not what Is
lover" but which Is love-"
A woman cant pick OUT hus-
band; she can only pick over"
what's offered and take the best
or the lot.
The average man selects a wife
as school girl does a novel; he
picks out one with a~showy cover
and nothing, much inside.
When a man lacks the courage to
propose to a girl It is question
whether It is for fear she will refuse
him or for fear she may accept him.
When a married man gets into a
Irritation he blames It half on the
girl for encouraging him and half
on his wife for having given him a
cold breakfast and frayed collar that
morning.
A woman feels about cigarettes
and things something like the man
who doesn't believe in ghosts, but
doesn't like to 20 where they are
She doesn't want to do anything I'M
feminine, but she doesn't like to
be told that she can't.
The Kaleidoscope career OF the
goth century heart makes II advls-
able to get over love affair as
quickly and gracefully as possible;
but It must be confessed that some
men get over IT, more quickly, more
gracefully and more often than is
necessary.
