day with some manuscript that she
wanted me to look over.
She has written more or less in a
small way for years, and I know that
her literary attempts represent to her
romance-loving heart the one element
OF personal romance in life mostly
devoted to her children, of whom she
has two grownup daughters.
And what do Alice and Edna think
of the article" I asked as l handed
the manuscript back to her.
A look of terror came into her eyes
and her hands actually trembled as
she reached for the papers.
"oh. please. don't say anything
don't know anything about it, They
don't approve of my writing. They
think it is all nonsense anyone as old
as I trying to write. You won't say
anything to them, will you?"
Of course I treasured her. but
should have very much liked to have
said something about it to them.
And the something would have been
a vigorous expression of my opinion
of their lack of sympathy with their
mothers attempt to have a little life
apart from theirs.
One day when I was at a suffrage
meeting a woman told me of a neigh
Dor who would like to come, but
doesn't dare to, because her daugh-
ter disapproves so of the meetings."
"A young girl also SAID tnaL hSr
mother disapproved, but how little
difference that made was evidenced by
the fact that she was there.
The way the younger generation in
sists upon dominating the lives of the
older people is positively wicked.
They expect perpetual sympathy
and interest to be shown in all their
projects and pleasures, but it appar-
emily never occurs to them to repay
in kind.
Because your father and mother
are fifty or f1fty-f1ve or sixty does not
mean that they have passed the age
when they would enjoy being in the
limelight of your interest occasionally
instead of perpetually furnishing the
limelight for you.

BLUE EYES VS.. COOKING.
Not Romance. but Common Sense
Rules in Welded Life.
(By Beatrice Fairfax.)

| (By Beatrice Fairfax.)
There is one thing that every girl
| should never forget. and 1t Is this: You
may have the beauty of the Venus de
| Milo and the wiles of and charms of
| the Lorelei. but if your beauty and
charm do not rest on a sound basis of
! common sense. their powers will be
| but fleeing.
| A man may WOO and marry you for
| those qualities. but after marriage he
wants beauty of soul and brain as we'll
as good looks.
| 1t is all very we'll to rave roman
tically about bread and cheese and
Kisses but love is not the ethereal
little god he is represented to be; he
wants a sound. healthy diet if you
would keep him alive
In novels you find lovely young
creature who knows nothing of house
keeping, and her husband laughs at
her blunders. kisses the tips of her
scorched fingers. and loves her more
madly than ever.
1t isn't quite the same in real life.
A man may laugh at the first mis-
take, but at the second his smile will
be trif1e rueful. and after that he
will begin to think his lovely, helpless
bride rather an expensive luxury.
Presently dyspepsia will creep in and
love will fly out. for love and indiges
ton are poor mates
A man has got to be comfortable in
his home if he is going to love that
ness.
If the home is ill kept and the meals
i'll cooked he will soon learn to look
elsewhere for his comforts.
If you love a man we'll enough to
marry him, surely you love him well
enough to hold him. Blue eyes and
golden hair will not compensate for
burnt chops and soggy potatoes.
The average man is home loving and
domestic. He marries because he
wants a home and, thinks he has
found the right girl. But if he comes
home at night and finds dark dfscom-
fort instead of light and cheerfulness,
he soon begins to feel that he made
a mistake.
If you go the right way about it you
can make him look on you as the most
wonderful woman in the world

NEWBRO'S
HERPICIDE
Solves the Problem of
Good Hair.

After Prof. Sabouraud
confirmed the germ origin
of dandruff, science was
confronted by a new prob
lem which was not solved
until the discovery of
Newbro's Herpicide. Her
picide being the first sue
cessful preparation COM
pounded in harmony with
this new theory, becomes
the original remedy to kill
the dandruff germ.
Since then, numerous
preparations said to be
"just as good'' as Herpi-
eide have been thrown up
on the market; others
have adopted Herpicide
claims, but their remedies
remain the same, but none
have ever reached the
same degree of popularity.
Everywhere this remedy
is recognized as the one
genuine dandruff germ de-
stroyer. AS a result Herp-
icide has more satisfied
users than all other hair
preparations combined.
Being the original remedy
users expect more astonishing
results from Herpicide than
they would look for from any
other preparation and they
usually get them. So wonder
full has been the success of this
germicide as the standard hair
remedy of the world.
Herpicide kills the dandruff
germ, checks falling hair. It
stops itching of the scalp
almost instantly.

ing real Herpicide. Send 10c in

Philadelphia. Feb. 5.-Young man, if
you would know just how you stand
in the regard of the girl you love, find
some way to get her interested in a new
scientific machine that is called by the
unlovely name Of lethysmograph. Ac-
cording to DR.. Arthur Holmes, in
structor in psychology at the Univer-
sity of Pennsylvania, this machine in
dicates unerringly what thoughts are
hidden behind the mask of maidenly re-
serve that the girl wears to hide from
you her real feelings.
The machine consists merely of a
rubber bag and a series Of rubber tubes

are being tested puts his or her arm

a curious way. At the same time edu-
Gated women of the recent period have
been adjured by social monitors, both
men and women that they would not
find favor in mems eyes If they be-
trayed the fact of their mental quail
f1catIons in conversation. Men do not
like superior" women, they were told,
women who seem to know as much as
themselves, and therefore in the pres
ence of these critical and sensitive
| male beings it was well for the in
tellectual girl to "sing small'' and to
be as frivolous as her silliest sister if
she aspired to be liked by the men
OF her acquaintance. On her own part
| the educated girl had her own private
grievance, namely, that when she did
seek to carry on an intelligent con-
versation with the average male per-
| son whom she met she often found him
| irresponsible and in reality a stupid
bore
Her lot, therefore, has not been all
together pleasant one, but there are
indications that she will find better
conditions and better recognition in
future. The trouble seems to have
been that she has taken too much for
granted and has not grasped the fact
that there are men and men and that
some are capable of meeting her on
common intellectual ground, while
some are not. No less a person than

examination conducted annually under

The board proposes to make the lecture program a regular fea- ture for Wednesdays and Saturdays during the rest of the season or until further notice.
