One Woman to Another.
Dear Miss Dooh:
Although we do not have THE
EVENING STAR regularly, I have
often read your articles with interest
and have thought some of your advice
most excellent. Just now / picked Ut
last Saturdays paper and noticed for
the first time the letter from Heart
broken Wife," which is enough to stir
the soul of anyone who has had such
experience, Or even knows of such
cases, and they are plenty.
1 wish I had read this before. but
even al this late day 1 cannot refrain
from begging you to recall your ad-
vice to her, If possible. Those who
have had an experience know that 1t
Is perfectly useless for that dsar
woman to drag out such an existence
even a day longer. 1t will only q to
her physical weakness and render her
less able to provide for herself and
child. 1t Is perfectly useless to wait
for the reformation of a man who has
lone as he has for that length Of time.
There is not much left of him but the
brute nature. And yet, when the day
OF settlement comes, there will not be
so much for such as he to account
for as those who make and sell that
which can so transform some of h
kindest and noblest of men.
The deepest and darkest corner in the
place of future punishment, which we
al know is real, will be kept for those
y no used their none and brains and
have studied to concoct that which,
through the nerve centres and through
every Fart of their very being. destroys
all natural affection, all good and noble
desires and ambitions and leaves but
the one overmastering instinct--the
desire for more OF that which has made
them what they are.
Now, l am not a temperance fanatic.
1 am only a woman who in sixty years
of s%ojourn here has known many, many
such cases as this one who writes to
YOU.
If there is any way you g reach
her please do advise that she delay not
a day In Kidding herself of one who Is
unworthy the name of husband and
father. I do not know how he can be
compelled to support her. for she can
not claim MS WAGES L met OHly yes
terday a widow who is crushed and
heart roken from hat same bitter
trouble in her Oldest son., her main
support. 1t has been going on for over
ten years, and Notwithstanding the eff
forts of one of the best of mothers and
of many kind friends, is getting worse
instead of better, and she is nearly des-
perate. The saloon men know how to
work it. Numbers of times he has been
doped. what money was left taken from
his pockets. and at 10 O'Clock on Sat
urday night he is put out a back win

the witnesses will not testify to what
they know, and this goes on close to
one of our police stations. in one of the
best parts of u city.

in finding something to do 1 am sure

Through the open windows was

The golden light was fading, and the
sound of the falling water could be
heard more distinctly. She raised her
beautiful face, all wet with fast-falling
tears and %quivering with grief.

He pointed to the setting sun.

He formed many plans for the educa-
ton Of his son. He had cad and pom
dered the annals of his family, and It
seemed to him that it was his mission
to begin a new order of things. But
grim death came on him unawares.
He bought a fine thoroughbred, rode 1t
in spite of the warnings he received,
and he was brought home to die.
Loved by all, one of the most popular
men in the county. and one of the hap

& IR ANTONY had made his will,
and a handsome income was Sc
cured to Lady Carew. He ex-
pressed his wish that she should live
at Firholme with his son Sir Carlos
until he became of age; then she could
please herself. The rest OF the money
was to accumulate until the young heir
attained his majority. The advice of
the rector. who had been Sir Antony's
best friend, was also to be taken with
respect to Sir Carlos's education, and
he was to be consulted in any din

Violet Scheme for a Girls Room,


Violet is not a usual shade in which
to furnish a room. but one girl, whose
color 1t was, experimental. and here is
the result
The walls were papered with punches
of ~violets, among which there were
many gray shadows-upon an ivory
ground; the woodwork was finished in
ivory. Curtains, portieres and all COW
ers We're made of dotted swiss and lined
with violet cambria or lawn, the only
trimming being dainty ruffies of the
swiss.
Mahogany furniture added warmth
and tone to the room. The writing
desk was provided with note paper OF
the faintest violet hue. Is 1t a wonder
that an elusive violet fragrance per-
vaded the room? Il was. indeed, a
charming setting for a golden-haired
girl.

When applying hair wash, the plan is
to part the tresses from the forehead to

strands all over the head, with a bit of
rag or a small brush. Do the back first,
and then attend to the sides and front.
Dandruff has a way of accommodating
above the ears. Shaking the hair when
the cleansing process is over Will help
to dry it and the scalp, also. A good
brushing and drying should follow.
No hair can thrive that Is not clean.
It should be brushed just enough to
keen It smooth and spotless. White
hair needs peculiar care in brushing n

state of the hair. When 1t becomes

MOTHER DEAD OF FEVER
AFTER NURSING DAUGHTER

Special to THE EVENING JOURNAL.
NEW CASTLE. Sept. 15.-Mrs. Mary A.
Madden. wife of Henry Madden. died this
morning after severe attack Of typhoid
fever. Mrs. Madden was woman OF a
charitable disposition. always ready 10
help the sick and needy. She was a men,
Der of ST. Peters Church and was aiways
faithful to her duties. She is survived by
a husband. three daughters, a son and two
grandchildren. Her daughters are Mrs.
Clarence Palmer and Mrs. Frank Murphy.
Mrs Murphy was the first of the family
10 take the fever and the ever faithful
mother was her nurse until she fell a prey
10 the disease. Mrs. Palmer is also suffer-
ing from the same illness and her condi-
ton is such that the news OF her mothers
death must be kept from her.
The New Castle Athletic Association at
its meeting last night put its foot down
hard and fast on rowdvism on the ball
field and decided not TO allow Oliver 10
play in the DelSware City series.
While money has been scarce it is true
that New Castle people have paid their
dues regularly in the building and loan
association.
The feeling here at present is to get
ready for the halloween parade. There is
no reason why New Castle cannot have a
good celebration this year
