- Madison Square

That tiny girl will be pretty-her
own mirror and the dangerous mirror
in mems eyes will tell her of her
beauty.
And she will soon learn that pretty
clothes will enhance her beauty. she
will love color and gaiety and the feel
ing Of soft, silken fabrics
If she departs one inch from the con-
ventional, beaten track the world will
push her down and keep her down and
the men who tempted her will be the
ones who will have least pity for her.
There is everything to tempt girl
in this day Of luxury.
The shop windows, the beautifully
dressed women driving by in their lux
urious motor cars, the theaters and
restaurants-all these are temptations
to girl.
Welcome Young Men.
The thing that removes her from
temptation is to fall in love with an
honest, earnest young man Of her own
walk in life.
Mothers should bear this in mind,
and give their girls every chance to
marry.
There is no necessity of forcing the
situation. but make the home pleasant
and eligible young men welcome.
Don't allow your daughters to be
courted on the street corners. Give
them a parlor in which to receive their
friends.
Don't make your girls afraid to con-
fide in you and remember that all girls
are guilty of foolish actions now ana
then.
Remember that LAS the twig is bent,
so the tree grows" And see that the
twig is kept straight and wholesome.
All children are initiative Little
girls initiate their grown up sisters
The Duchess of Madison Square, with
her absurd red bow, her trailing shawl
and her carriage, was initiating the
women she saw driving by. She was
playing "grown-ups."
Men and women whose sheltered
lives have brought them no tempta-
lions may be hard on the erring ones
but 1 think that the recording angel as
he writes down their good and bad
deeds will say to himself, Poor tnlhg'
she was but a woman, born with Wo-
mans love of pretty things AND not
strong enough to fight the longing

.HE Duchess of Madison Square
swept regaIly down the steps AMI
into her waiting carriage.
Her attire was somewhat peculiar.
but the Duchess Of Madison Square was
a very democratic duchess.
Her coronet-oh, yes. the duchess
wore cOronet-consisted of a rampant
red bow which branched wildly in all
directions.
He gown, over which she constantly
stumbled, lay about her in the folds
which only a red shawl can royalty
assume
On one royal foot was high button
ed shoe that had once been white; on
the other a tan slipper.
In her hand the duchess carried a
black umbrella, composed mostly of
ribs.
But, as I said, the duchess swept
regally down to her waiting carriage.
Two dashing, prancing steeds drew the
royal equipage.
The Duchess Commands.
The duchess seated herself, raised
her umbrella with languid grace. and
briskly gave the order, 'det up
The champing steeds pranced madly
and then. alas and alas for the Ouch
ess Of Madison Square,
The hind wheels flew off the car
riage and the duchess turned a back
somersault, and the prancing steeds,
unconscious of the plight of their royal
passenger, dashed down East Fifteenth
street
From the depths of the overturned
carriage, which was marked ~ gross
snow white laundry soad," there arose
an indignant wall. The duchess's two
fat little legs kicked madly in the air
and the ribs of the di1apidated umbrella
stuck out in mild protest.
A sympathetic onlooker rescued the
duchess, wiping her grimy face, and
sent her on her way rejoicing with a
nickel clasped in her tiny fist, And
then the writer went on her way and
unused on the characteristics of her own
sex
What Does Fate Hold:
Dear little baby girl" she thought,
growing up in your sordid surround
ings, with your Unborn love of luxury
and pretty things, what will become
of you?"

Dorothy Dir ON n why they


OF long ago it CHANGED that I
IN was present at a little dinner at
which there were three men and
three women, all married, and ALL for
the moment, enjoying the blissful free
dom of not being under the surveil-
lance of the partners of their bosoms.
After the coffee had ben brought in.
and the servants gone, the conversation
turned TO the subject of matrimonial
infelicity and one of the women said:
The real cause of so much domestic
discord is because We don't marry for
the right thing"
why DO we marry" asked man.
TT would be interesting to know"
suggested another woman.
Let's turn this into confessional"
said the first woman. Il will tell the
truth. if the balance of you will"
"AIl right" agreed the others
Well said the first woman, ''the
real reason why I married was because
all of my friends were getting mar
ried, and people expected it of me.
THAT seems a pretty weak foolish
reason to me now for taking such
momentous step. for risking my own
happiness and that OF a good. honest,
unsuspiciOus man, but it seemed good
to me at the time.
Jim had been in love with me ever
since l first came out in society, but
had honestly never thought of such
thing as marrying him. I'd been a pop
ular girl. one of the sort who has lots
of beaux, and men fighting over her
dance card. and whose path is strewn
with chocolate creams and American
Beauties so to speak.
Il had had plenty OF opportunities to
marry. Some Of the men who did me
this honor were charming fellows who
fascinated me for a time and then I
grew weary of them, and let them
go. None of them had really touched
my heart. and. besides, 1 was having
too good time TO want to marry and
settle down.
'Of course I intended to do it some
time. 1 realized that matrimony was
the best thing for a woman in the END,
but I felt about it like we DO about
going to heaven. 1 was in no hurry
about it.
Marriage Infection.
so l went along enjoying myself
and then the girls of my set began 10
marry off. / remember what a wild
state of excitement 1 was in when
Mamie came rushing around breath
lessly to tell me that she was engaged
and was actually going to be married.
l simply revealed in all of the tender
details, and l was as proud as a pea
cock when she asked me to be her
maid of honor at the wedding.
Then Sally got married. and Betty
got married, and Carrie got married,
and Maude got married, one after the
other. and I was bridesmaid at so
many weddings that the female cats
1 knew began to quote TO me the old

Finally, 1 looked around one day,
and saw myself the last leaf on the
tree, so to speak. Almost every one of
my girl friends was married They
were settled in homes of their own, alb

The Optimistic Outside

A moment ago I was talking with a woman who is first cousin to the late Grover Cleveland. She is a large wom- an, round faced. hearty and the most aggressively optimistic person I ever met. She believes in herself, In me, in you, in everybody, in everything. She believes in God.
 What makes you so radiently cheer full" I asked.
 God and cold water" she replied. T believe in the goodness of God. and l take cold shower bath every day."
 And you have no troubles of your own?' '0''
 Troubles" replied Grover Cleveland's S cousin, with broadening smile. "Troubles why my dear sir, I have my full share of them, but keep them in side instead of letting them get outside for other persons to see. have a little philosophy or life. It consists in wear ing the optimistic outside"
 Hurrah for the optimistic outsidei
 Let us put 1t on, every one of us. and wear it night and day Let us don it as a garment, the optimistic outside. the velvet cloak of cheer, the satin robe of smiles, the embroidered toga of the high senate of human Kindness.
