Mildred has dozens of suitors,
said Mildreds Best Friend. land it's
perfectly wonderful to me how she
manages them all. because she's the
incest girl I know with men. She's
| absolutely on the square with all of
them and wouldn't think of STOPPING
to the things most girls do without
pang of conscience to keep their adj
mirers going. 1 would give anything
| if I had her secret for I'd really love
| to be nice and sincere and a Perfect
Lady all the time but I'm frank to
confess that if 1 were on the square
with the men I know I would be the
beauless wonder of the village next
| week"

Lillian Bell has been employed by
one Of the big yellow newspaper
syndicates to write about the Thaw
trial She is not member of the Sob
Squad, however, and what she hands
to Little Evelyn, the Angel Che-ild, is
a-plenty. But what could you expect
when a plain middle-aged female got
a chance at an attractive young girl?
1t will be remembered that Lillian
Bell, although she was Library and
Awful Popular on the South Side in
Chicago, barely got inside the flag in
the matrimonial race. marrying, when
she was we'll along in years, a man
much younger than herself who was
badly handicapped for foot race on
account of being a cripple, while
Evelyn Nesbit had millIonaires fight
ing for her and was married before
she was twenty in spite of the fact
that, from all accounts, she didn't go
in the Best Society. Under these cir
cumstances would Lillian hand it to
Evelyn? Would she? O WOULD she?
Say, honest, it's a shame for that Bell
woman to take the money from the
Hearst syndicate.
