GETTING ACQUAINTED

| There are a good many women who
ought to ponder over the remark of a
small girl to her mother, who seemed
girl, with whom she was earnestly
| talking.
"Why, I didn't know you knew that
little girl" said the mother.
"Well," explained the child, 81 des
smiled at her and she smiled at me,
and then we was acquainted"
| The child's notion of getting ac-
quainted" was refreshingly simple, and
| really, it wouldn't hurt any if a few
more people would give this method a
trial, occasionally.
| What a laborious undertaking most
| people do make of this business of
| getting acquainted, anyway.
Dear, dear, you may have more gold
in your purse or fewer crooked
| branches on your family tree than the
woman next to you, but what Of it?
You're both travelling the same road,
| you will both soon come to the end,
and down underneath, in the elemental
things of life, you are not so unlike,
| after all.
| But it is not easy for women to let
down the bars of social distinction, not
so easy as for men, so you often hear.
And that may be true, for men seem
| to have more in common-politicS and
baseball, for instance, know no class
distinctions. But this does not excuse
| the snobbish woman. Nothing excuses
her, for, when you stop to think of it.,
| there is never any excuse for snob-
| bishness in this world.
Yes, you may have more money or
! better clothes or you may manage
your subjunctives better than the wo-
| man who lives next door, or who sits
| next to you in the street car, but in
the things that count for eternity you
have little more to boast of; human
| fralties and weaknesses are pretty
evenly divided, just rest assured of
! that.
And this is not a plea for the woman
who does not even wait to smile at
you, or for you to smile back but is
acquainted at once and stra1ghtWay
bares her whole past life to you, just
because you happen to sit next to her
! in a train or car. To tell an utter
stranger how much you paid for your
| spring suit and why you got divorce
| from your husband, 1t must be admit
! ted does smack of the underbred. But
| such a woman is not moved merely
by the friendly spirit of the little girl
who saw nothing more to getting ac-
quainted than an exchange of smiles.
| This Is an age when everyone IS
talking a great deal about the brother
hood of man. And it really does look
| as if there were some women who
take the phrase quite literally and
imagine that it doesn't have anything
to do with the sisterhood of woman.
A woman does somehow so love to
settle down cmfortably in a feeling Of
her own superiority and her utter self
sufficiency. The little girl however,
didn't make such an ado about the
matter of a few friendly words in
passing. "She smiled at me, and
smiled at her. she said, and that was
all there was to ii.

Let the girl who thinks herself ugly
take heart. If beauty were as de-
Unable as a chemical formula there
might be reason for Encouragement.
Since it is in the eye of the beholder
every one has a chance.
Most of us make cut-and-dried rules
for beauty. We think it a matter of
line and coloring, of long lashes, a
Grecian nose and mobile mouth. Want
ing regular features, we are scornful
of soul and charm, clothes, and car
riage, as beauty makers.
Women should learn to make the
most of what they are rather than
bemoan what they have not. Study
your type and live up to it. There
are some girls who can afford to play
tricks with their looks; the majority
even of so-called beauties, fall short
of their full charms by thinking them
selves lovely enough to stand anything
in the way of adornment.
Get a definite idea of what beauty
is, and see that the idea is high
one. Do not bank too much on arti-
ficiality to improve your looks. There
is no wrong in helping along ones
complexion or hair, but too often it is
an error in judgment and good taste.
In the quest for beauty never over
look the value of clothes. This need
not mean costliness; it certainly does
not mean eXaggeration or conspicuous
ness. Again, study your type. Buy
what suits it and learn to carry it
well. To dress becomingly is more a
question of time and thought than of
money.
Do not forget charm in the beauty
hunt, you girls who think yourselves
ugly. Attractive ways and a gracious
manner are rivals of good looks. The
peevish lifeless, disconnected, or self
conscious beauty has fewer admirers
than she imagines. Fascination will
blind most of us into the belief that
a girl is good looking.
Have you ever seen woman with
out one good feature who seems lovely
from her expression alone? What we
are cannot be hidden.
A lovely character is a beauty max
err worth while, its good looks are be-
yond form and coloring, and the raw
ages of years.
1t is this soul beauty that often
makes women of mature years lovelier
far than as girls.
Stop moping over ugliness. Look on
beauty as a duty, and do your best
to live up 20 it. 1t will not be hard
these days, when one may pass as a
fairly good-looking woman, even
though those looks are largely self
created.

THE STORY FACTORY

A good game to play at party is
the "story factory" Any number OF
people can play, and it is pencil and
paper game, so requires no prepara-
ton on the part of the hostess except
to make a list of sentences.
The story factory is supposed to be
run by the hostess for the purpose of
manufacturing romantic and thrilling
tales at short notice.
To the assembled company, who wait
pencil in hand, she reads at intervals
sentences suitable for romantic and
adventurous situations. Each contest
ant (or contestants working as part
ners) is to construct a story with
their sentences, weaving them in some
how.
For instance, the sentences the host
ess reads may be these:
Her eyes were like sapphires"
what no! said the pirate captain"
"Enveloped by the stiffness of the
night"
"The lions roar interrupts"
81 always did like butter scotch"
1.-THE snow drift covered the window"
what! pancakes?"
"Alas alack! My own true love.
Opening oysters is certainly dtffl-
cult"
Umbrellas"
And woven into a story it might
"Her eyes were like sapphires, he
thought as he gazed at her, enveloped
by the stiffness of the night But be-
fore he had time to put his thoughts
into words, Wat no. said the pirate
captain, breaking in upon them sud
denly. AS the slion's roar Interrupts
the silence of the desert, so did the pi-
rates voice break in upon the lovers
I always did like butter SCOTCH lie
continued blandly trying to put them
at their ease. But in spite of his kind
intentions, the lovers did not welcome
him with warmth. They were cold in
the winter blizzard, when the snow
drift covered the window. What!
pancakes?' cried the indispensable
captain, noticing the picnic provender
collected on the deck. Alas, alack!
my own true love- murmured the hero,
will he never leave us alone"
"'Opening oysters is certainly diff
ficult,' remarked the captain. working
away with an obdurate specimen he
had found near the pancakes. If you
try it with a can opener you will GER
tainly find it So replied the hero stiff
fly. And what, pray, do you recon-
mend?' asked the pirate captain.
Umbrellas, of course said the
hero

1 would rather earn just enough to
live on at cengenial occupation than
be paid $4,000 a year for doing work 1
disliked, declares Ruth Cameron.
For 1, like most every one, am earn
ing my money four-fifths of the day
and spending it during but one-fifth.
And to any one who wants to be
happy-in short, to all the world-my
heartfelt advice is, CHOOSE your voca-
ton so that as far as possible the earn
ing as well as the spending hours shall
be contented ones"
Be slow about the choosing. Try and
try again if need be. But be sure when
you have chosen that, within the range
of possibility, you are doing the work
you like the best.
Let your own fitness for the work
be the all-important factor in your
choice. If you would rather do house
work than work in a factory or office,
by all means wash dishes. Do not allow
any foolish feeling that people consider

uncongenial work.
Next to love, the joy of work is the
greatest thing in life. l have found
that the two things that give me the
most satisfying happiness are converse
with a congenial friend and the joy of
doing good work. No material possess
sions have ever been able to bring me
as much pleasure.
1t doesn't pay in the end to let the
dollars dazzle. Best remember when
YOU cover them and would sacrifice
YOUR tastes and abilities to win them
that you must be at the disagreeable
business of earning them four-fifths
of the day and will have but one weary
fifth in which to enjoy them.

AROUND THE SQUARE

From about 1895 to 1907 the spirit OF
optimism was abroad in the land; since
then the spirit of pessimism has been
in possession, which in a short. time
will be followed by another period of
optimism.
Why the human mind should be thus
affected is beyond my power to tell.
L simply note the fact; let wiser men
tell the reason.
If all the people would
Just walk around the square,
Fill their lungs with Gods fresh air
And come back again and hope,
The depression would be gone.
A B. STICKNEY,
Los Angeles herald., 1909-05-12

The woman who declares that she
doesn't care whether she is good
looking or not either is supremely self
satisfied or dallies with the truth. We
all crave beauty. And why not? 1t
is not the only weapon of our sex, but
it is a mighty attractive and powerful
one.
The ugly woman may win out in the
end; she may reach heights to which
her fairer sister never aspires but,
like the gifted Nine. de Stael, in her
innermost heart she would often bar
ter her brains for the beauty of a
Recamier.
Since we are all beauty lovers, what
is to be done if nature has not been
generous? Get sour and embittered,
morbidly conscious of a crooked nose
or flaming hair, or given to detract-
ing the charms of good-looking friends?
If only the ugly duckling could be
kept from knowing her physical de-
fects youth would be happier. The
vain girl who has had her beauty sung
since infancy knows not the agonies
of the girl who has had her ugliness
rubbed in.
If her nature is too sweet for envy,
her constituencies cuts deep and cor
rodes though quite unsuspectingly.
One woman says the bitterest mo-
ment of her life was when she broke
her nose and overheard her grand
mother say how lucky it was not her
pretty Cousins nose. The dread con-
seriousness of lack of looks was harder
to bear than the pain.
Another woman with an artists eye
hates Henners pictures because her
childhood had been made miserable by
being called "red head" The child
laughed and no one knew she cared,
but she can see no beauty in the
slightest tinge of red hair after all the
years.
Be as Beautiful as She Can
Do not let the child suspect she has
missed her heritage of beauty. I'M
press upon her rather that it is every
ones duty to be as beautiful as she
can.

That fairies live in tres,

Like witches, though-do you?

And shapes like mats,
