BY Lillian BELL.

After Mrs Hetty Green is dead the
just biographer will find In the true
history of that sturdy woman's long
and difficult career many qualities OF
resolute patriotism, which will make
some OF the photographers who now
seize every opportunity TO make sport
OF her wish they had been little
more thoughtful before they rushed
into print. deriding her for an econ

which. in many respects. could he fol-
lowed by other multi-millionaires with
profit.
New Workers ridicule her because
she will not waste money in stupid
display. But IL Is a good thing Tor
wasteful New York to have in Its
midst one woman brave enough u
defy worldwide comment, caustic
criticism in the press every day III
the year. and ridicule OF the most
sarcastic and bitter type, and to live
as she jolly we'll pleases, in spite or
the shafts of envy.
Mrs. Green is Quaker. and yet.
while avoiding useless and wicked os-
tentation, she manages 10 have every
thing in the world she wants.
Nobody would he such fool as to
say that Mrs. Green walks because
she wants TO save the price of ride,
or lives in Hoboken because It is
cheap. She tried the smartest hotel
in New York. and the greedy New
Workers. nearly drove her crazy.
She had no peace, no privacy. no
time to call her own; so she went
where the indolent and pleasure-loy-
ing mendicants upon her time would
not follow in hordes. at any rate.
She works every day at business
like man. Would that more OF the
rich and idle had her sense
Yet she herself declares that she
did not rush into business at first
When her husbands death left her
mistress of fortune, she did as other
women do--trusted in some mans
Judgment and honesty-and she found,

iVlTt HATEVER else you do or what
lMI ever else you fail to do, young
U woman. keep your lips from
disagreeable criticisms and
your heart from harsh judg
ments Only by guarding your
thoughts and words from these un-
pleasant habits can YOU guard your
self from becoming unpopular and un-

Just SO sure as you cultivate the
very common habit of making sport

There is no more certain way TO
invite premature age and spinsterhood
than by becoming a critic of human
ity.
BY spinsterhood | do not mean SIN

to be thought to be peculiar 10 single
women past their youth. but which Is
quite as frequently found in married
women as In the minated.
The habit of fault-fnding and criti-
cism of humanity, once acquired Is
not easily cured. unless one realizes
the unattractiveness and sinfulness OF
the vice. Sinfulness and vice may
seem strong words to use in this con
neCtion but the woman whose lips
breathe hateful sarcasms and whose
eyes look on her sister women only to
criticise and ridicule, is vicious crea-

Besides this fact, such woman
lessons her own value and the value
of women as "A class In the minds OF

A man sought out two young WON

Va. IL had been reported that Miss
kinraide, before leaving Norfolk for
her home In Hamilton, had lifted the
actor To become engaged TO wed a
Methodist minister.
Mr.. kinraide's statement follows:
MY daughter had position sing
ing in the Manchester Presbyterian
church. Richmond. Va. She was a
good musician and WAS always fond OF
music. One night she was sitting at
the window playing and the manager
of an amateur theatrical company
heard her. He offered her $40
week to come and sing a couple OF
songs. AS her duties in the church
choir were not onerous. she was pleas

ing her income Of 81 or IS week,

daughter could secure rest after the
trying experience through which they
nave passed since the murder OF
Ethel Kinraide. IL was stated that a
tramp who came To the Kinraide home
and had been given $40 had killed the
girl, but the officers In Hamilton say
Florence Kinraide can give valuable
information which may enable them
10 run down the murderer. They hint
that the man who killed the girl is not

they have secured leads TO Virginia.

A STEP IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION

For some years the prohibition
movement has been gaining strength
throughout the country. and in many
communities laws have been passed
abolishing the sale of intoxicating
liquors. For this state of affairs the
saloons alone are responsible, more
especially, perhaps, those in the large
cities, where the observance of the
laws has depended entirely upon the
saloonkeeper's "pull' with the
police. Proided this influence was
strong enough, every safeguard hedged
about the traffic has ben openly and
VIGOROUSLY violated; liquor has been
sold to anybody, maj woman or child,
who produced the price; keys have
been thrown away and saloons never
closed from one years end to the 9th
er; gambling. designation, and other
vices have been tolerated, provided the
bar was patronized.
Recognizing the fact that the saloon
must be reformed if it continues to ex-
list, the Illinois liquor dealers, in state
convention, have adopted the following
code of ethics to govern the saloons of
the state. If they are carried out,
many of the Objectionable features of
the business will have been removed:
To prohibit the serving of drinks to
any female, to be drunk at a public
bar
To prevent gambling for money in
any and all forms upon the premises.
To conduct places of business so
that n%eighbors win feel them neces-
sary, instead of a hindrance, and re
spect the wishes of the neighbors in
every possible way.
To discontinue promiscuous giving
of Christmas presents in any form
whatever.
To stop the sale of Scent "grow1-
ers' and limit the sale of peer in
buckets to the residents of the imme-
date ~neighborhood.
To exclude from all saloons and pub
lie bars all indecent pictures and cards.
and discourage the use of indecent
pictures or labels for advertising pur-
poses by the makers of or dealers in
liquors, cigars and cigarettes.
