CHAPTER XVIII. The Little Woman in Blue,

Sally B.s ready skill soon had the an- lle rubbed to comparative ease. She prescribed bed; but Miss Hamilton de clared for the banquet even if she must be carried there, and gladly ac- cepted Stella's offer of help with the dressing
 Miss Hamilton's lingerie was hardly less costly and dainty than my lady's of today. White silk hose and satin slippers; multiplied skirts more lace than cambric; the combination of lace and blue silk tissue that was the filmy little gown-with careful hands Stella unpacked and laid them, a snowy heap, on the bed.
 The toilet went slowly. Stella had been taught decent respect for the human body; and her innate love of beauty and order had blossomed into an honest personal neatness But such complicated hair-dressing, such caressing of eyebrow and lash; such critical attention to hands and nails; the bathing, hot and cold; the rub ping and batting of cheek and arm, be- fore lotion, powder, and wee touch of rouge went on; the examinations at each stage with hand glass and mir TOT, Stella holding one of the lamps which she continually adjusted to new angles of refiection-this was an amaZ- ing revelation to her of Eve-old fem mine adoration at the altar of self adornment

I'll give you a fetching character"
 Stella winced. yet chided herself for it. She knew Miss Hamilton was only fin fun" Still, how could this delicately reared city girl believe such a big, awkward creature as herself capable of filling any but menial DO sition? The real unkindness for which Miss Hamilton failed to apologize, the scant minutes she had left Stella for her own toilet, went unnoticed; for Stella was too generous a giver to count the cost of her givings.
 In her own room she smiled to her self while she quickly made ready, coiling as usual her thick waving hair. but adding her golden combs;" slip ping hurriedly into her simple white gown and its simpler accompaniments.
 A cluster of tiger lilies, an offering from fower-loving Vic Wah, caught her eye. She pinned them on her breast, and hastened downstairs, meet ing Sally B. and Viola in the hall.

One Big GAME TODAY
Pennsylvania Cornell Contest Is the
Only Important Football Game
in the East.

One great football game is booked
for the east today, and this Is the an
nual contest between Pennsylvania
and Cornell at Franklin field, Phil
adelphia Pennsylvania has had a re-
markably successful season and parti-
zans of the red and blue are claiming
a right to share eastern football hon
ors with Harvard. Cornell has played
but fair football and her inability TO
beat Chicago would seem to put her
out of the running with the Philadel-
phia eleven. Cornell has a heavy line
and some fast backs. and may hold
the Quakers well, but the dope reads
different. OF course, westerners are
pulling for a victory for the Ithacans,
for this would mean big boost for
Chicago. the championship team of the
west. If Pennsylvania beats Cornell
by a decisive score, however. eastern
critics will be quick to proclaim the
decided inferiority OF all western
teams.
Cochems' ST. Louis u team plays

HOW old IS THE
iron MASTER?
CARNEGIE SAYS HE Is 70 TO-DAY
'.. WHILE OTHERS SAY -.
BUT n.

New York, Nov. 26.--How old is
Andy? This is the question which
New York admirers OF Andrew Car
negie are discussing today. That this
is the birthday of the laird of Skibo"
there is no doubt, but on the question
Of his age, authorities disagree. Some
biographical works state that the
steel magnate was born on November
25, 1885, which would make the multi
millionaire 73 years of age today.
Mr.. Carnegie himself is authority
for the statement that he was born
November rs, 1887, and that this is
his list anniversary. He is very SEN
sitive in regard to his age, as he is on
the subject of death, and the attempt
OF some biographers to attribute to him
more years than he has lived is Bit
terly resented by the great giver Of
Libraries and hero medals. In fact,
Mr.. Carnegie considers any reference
to his advancing age as offensive, and
those who know him most intimately
will not indulge in congratulatory
messages and reminders today.
The famous philanthropist was born
in Dumfermline. Fifeshire Scotland,
and came with his family to the Unit
ed States in 1S4S, settling in Pittsburg.
He began his career as a weaver's as
sistant in a cotton factory, later dom
ming the blue uniform of a messenger
boy in the service of the Ohio Tele-
graph company. Learning telegraphy,
he advanced rapidly until he became
superintendent of the Pittsburg divis-
ion of the Pennsylvania railway. His
connection with Woodruff, the invent
or of the sleeping car. formed the nu-
cleus of his fortune. After the war
he began the development and organ
ization of the iron industry and his
success made him one of the wealth
lest of American multi millionaires.
Entertaining the theory that 1t is a
disgrace to die rich, he has of late de-
voted much OF his time to philan-
thropy, and the Carnegie libraries
throughout the United States and
Scotland, the Carnegie Institution Of
Washington, the Carnegie Hero Fund,
and numerous other institutions stand
as permanent memorials to his lfber-
ality. He has written many books,
and new one from his pen Will short
ly appear
Mr.. Carnegie married in 1887, Louise
Whitfield, the only issue of the mar
riage being Margaret Carnegie. born

Down near Lexington, KY, on farm
known as Walnut Hills, is the happiest
father and mother in the country.
Little Jimmy Butler. the pride of
their hearts, has turned down $1O,-
600 per year contract for the sake of
staying in the country and being able
to be with them part of each year.
When the Vanderbilts were looking
for the best rider available to go to
France for three years and guide their
horses to first place on the French turf
Butler was selected. Mr.. Winn acted
as their representative and offered
Jimmy $4,000 per year for three

thought on the Jockeys part he decided
to stay In America for the sake OF
his mother. This is very interesting

HAYES WAS DEFEATED'ATTELL OUTCLASSED
Italian Was Too Fast for the Winner
of the Marathon in Their New
York Match.

New York, Nov. 26.---The end OF
the most exciting struggle between
two men ever witnessed in this city
came at midnight last night. when
10000 people. rose and greeted Do
rando as the victor in the renewal
of the famous Marathon race Of the
English Olympiad. For almost three
hours Dorando Pietri and Johnny
Hayes, the game little New York
boy who brought victory to the AM
erican athletes in the most famous
event of the Olympic games. padded
about the restricted tanbark ring on
which the disputed Marathon was to
be run From the start 1t was seen
that Dorando, living up to the repu-
tation taht he made when he last met
Hayes, had wonderful speed and en-
durance extraordinary in human be-
ing.
At the last race he was at one time
almost six miles ahead of Hayes. Last
night he was not six feet ahead of him
during the running of the 262 laps un-
til the last lap, when he spurted and
with his marvellous speed gained a
quarter of lap and crossed the finisn-
ing line that much ahead of Hayes.
The race was run for the full twen-
ty-six miles 1856 yards on the circular
track In the time of 2 hours, A min
utes, 90 1-5 seconds. Hayes, . hours,
as minutes 1-5 seconds.
When the red trunked runner who
had been cheered on from the start
by thousands of his countrymen who
I -. tx, A ki,,s,
crossed the finish line, still running
strongly, there was the widest and
noisiest demonstration the garden has
ever known.
The police were swept aside. and
shouting. laughing and kissing one
another, the men and women piled on
to the track and in one great rush
carried Dorando and few officials
who had surrounded him at the finish
outside the track In a great triumph
ant procession.
Johnny Hayes, game to the last and
with his set pale face showing the Ell
fort that he was making to again
triumph in the name Of the country
whose shield he proudly wore struggled
on to the finish. where the crowd
fiocked on to the track. Friendly
hands supported him and he was borne
as q victor from the track.
AS he ran past an arena box, only
few yards from the finish, a de-
feated champion there was the scream
OF a womarl's voice and handsome
young woman. who's had been foremost
in cheering the little runner on during
his journey, fell back In feint. She
was his sweetheart. For two or three
minutes she did not regain conscious

II Took a Heavier Man to Turn the
Trick but Welsh Was Greatly
Superior.

Los Angeles, Cal. Nov. ga mira
Gle in the pugilistic world happened
in Jeffries' rain soaked arena at Yer
non last night. Abe Attell, peer of
worlds featherweight division, was
not only whipped in every round of a
fifteen round go, but lost the title
he has held for years-that OF being
the cleverest man in the game.
1t took a lightweight to beat At
tell Freddie Welsh, the English
champion, did the trick and did the
job so thoroughly that not even At
tell had a protest to make when Ref
cree Charlie Eyton hoisted the Brit
isher's wet hand at the end of the final
round.
The marvellous part of the battle
was that Welsh proved to be more
clever than Attell He outboxed and
outfought the great little Jew In ev-
cry round--in fact there were times
that Welsh was so fast and clever In
comparison to Attell that he made the
latter look like the novice that Attell
has made SO many men look like In
years past.
Welsh has evidently studied AttelIs
style well and mapped his plan out
well In advance. Freddie would stab
Attell once or twice to the face and
then running in quickly would ham
mer Abe about the kidneys. The lat
ter was battered and bruised at the
finish.
A tiny stream of blood was coming
from Attell's nose while Welsh was
unmarked. A rain Storm coming up
just as the main event was called
made a disagreeable mess of things
The new canvas roof not being paint
ed. The outside edges of the ring
were wet and slippery at the start
and the circle of dampness increased
until Welsh and Attell had only about
an eight foot dry square to work In.
The scene at the close OF the bout
was wild one, every man running
from every part OF the house to shake
the hands of the Englishman, who
had not only conquered Attell, but
had proved that he was even faster
and clever than Abe, who has for
years been regarded as the most
wonderfully clever man In the world.

WOMEN NOT
OF The WORLD
CHICAGO UNIVERSITY PROFESSOR
ExPoUNDs HIS THEORY RE.
GARDING THE WORLD OF
THIS CENTURY.

New York, Nov. 26-'No woman
really enters the world today. in tn,
sense OF, having full intellectual en-.
franchisement in it or of the meeting
men fairly and squarely on equa
ground.
THE men and women of contempor.
airy civilization from two distinct
classes of beings between which there
is not free communication in an,
sense"
These are among the statements
concerning the woman of 1908 made
in the December number of the Ameri-
can Magazine by Prof. w. l.. Thomas
of the University of Chicago, who is
continuing in that publication his SER
les Of articles on women. The present
contribution Is on The Mind Of Wom-
an
In regard to the nom entrance OF
women into the world of today. Pro-
fessor Thomas writes:
A White Mans World.
"The world today is in reality a
while mans world and no women enter
II IN the fullest sense. They are ex-
clu6ed from it in precisely the same
ways ss the lower races. 1t is a more
honorific exclusion.
Il DO not mean that what I have
called the white mans world is the
best possible OF worlds. In some re-
spects it is as horribly imperfect and
i'll conducted, and provokes and COM
pels more varied and specialized ex-
pressions Of the mind than the protect
ed and restricted world in which wom-
an lives.
Nor is II any longer a world in
which great strength and ability to
travel fast count in getting experience.
We can bring our experiences to us by
the use of postage stamps, or reach
them by the use Of the common car
riers. But to enter this world in the
fullest sense means to be in 1t at every
moment from the time of birth to the
time OF death, and to absorb IL con-
sciously and unconsiously as a child
absorbs language"
School Co-eduoationaI.
Turning to discuss his views that
men and women are distinct classes,
Professor Thomas says:
Even in America few of the great
schools are CO. educational, and in those
which are so many of the instructors
claim that they do not find 1t possible
to treat with the men and women on
precisely the same basis both because
of their own mental attitude toward
mixed classes and the inability of the
women to receive such treatment.
Men and women still form two dis
tinct classes and are not in free COM
munication with each other.
Il do not have in mind situations
involving question Of property or deli
cacy alone, but certain habit of re-
straint originating doubtless in matters
relating to sex, extends to all inter
course with women, with the result
that they are not really admitted to the
intellectual world of men; and there is
not only a reluctance on the part OF
men to admit them, but reluctance
or rather real inability, on their part
to enter. Modesty with reference Il
personal habits has become so in
grained and habituaI and to do any
thing fre@ly Is so foreign to a woman
that even free thought Is almost of
the nature OF an immodesty with her.
There is even a phrase that a woman
who thinks is as disgusting as a man
who paints"

The BAD HABITS
Can Be CURED
SAYS NEW YORK PREACHER,
MERELY BY USE OF MENTAL
SUGGESTION GIVEN WHILE
THE PATIENT SLEEPS.

New York, Nov. 26.--The Rev. Hen
ry c. Rose of the Church of the Re-
deemer, Newark. N. j., declares that
every fault, sin or crime can be pre-
vented, every bad habit cured by men,
tai suggestion given in homeopathic
doses while the patients slept.
"show me 100 children addicted to
swearing, lying or other vice. and I
will reform thirty-five merely by sit
ting down beside their beds as they
sleep and talking to them" the Rev.
Mr.. Rose said "Forty-five of the 100
will be greatly benefited by the treat

in which he and the Rev. Elwood Wor-
cester, pastor of Emmanuel Protestant
Episcopal church Of Boston, engaged
Jointly in which 100 children were
treated for depravity with the result
he outlined.
"While the mind OF a child Is more
susceptible to mental suggestion dur

reformed by persistency. I know of
