his wife. How can 1 tell the boy

How can you, anyhow" Mr..

Mrs. Peeved, ignoring him, "enik-

THE STAGE DOORKEEPER

Say kid" demanded the stage
doorkeeper, as he abstracted a straw
from a broom for pipe cleaning pur-
poses, did you read that bunk in
this mornings paper about Tottie
Twinkletoes? No? we'll you certainly
missed some great stuff. She adn't
headlinin the bill this week. but she's
gettin' her share OF the spot light and
breakin into print with the regularity
of the paid notices.
Original Incubator Baby
That yarn this morning was a daisy
and told all about her bein' the orig
inal incubator baby. Yep, she's been
written up in the magazines time and
time again, and these savant bugs have

The Washington times., 1911-05-26

And then the pictures of her bed that
have been printed are all to the
merry-just a nickeTs worth of cot
ton battin'. The press agents do say
that she wore a finger ring for a
bracelet, and they could put her head
in nutshell.
Don't Have to Act
You see. With stun like that to feed
the papers she don't have to act,
cause the folks just pile over each

sKH HOLDS IT Up TO TEE
Girl in the Old Hat

because her milliner had not sent the
promised hat, said nothing.
You see, it's up to the girls to de-
eide how they want men to regard them.
The man who has some ideals and has
to work knows that it takes money to
live, and 1t takes nerve to make the
money in the right way. If he is q fool
he marries one of the girls who spends
most of her time and all the cash she
can get in making stylish appearance.
If HE isn't fool he marries a girl whu
presents some evidence that SHE isn't.
That young lady In the winter hat
showed a symptom of common sense"
II happen to know she has it," I re-
torted. But I wasn't so sure there was
a male creature who could detect it,
Clothes and Frivols
You don't give US credit for as much
sense as we have. Men have got to look
sharp. OF course. they look too sharp to
like a dowdy girl, but they are not to
be caught with fine clothes and a friv-
olous manner. They know how clothes
and frivols cost. They may play with
girls like that, but they have too much
sense to want to assume the RESPONSE
bility and expense permanently. They
will not marry them. Now that young
lady in the winter hat can put a curb
on her love for fashionable trappings.
She uses her brains. A man cannot help
admiring-"
I'VE will 30 to call IL you like" in
terrupted.
"I SHOULD like it," he exclaimed
And fell into a revery. II seemed
clear that 1t was the girls to choose
whether she would be a playmate or a
helpmate. 1t was an engrossing thought.
Some Of you girls might try 1t as q
mental exercise.

Loretta's Looking Glass

TT was after church on Easter Sun
day. The girl in the winter hat had
sat right in front of u.s. And Us
was myself and q MAN.
I bowed as we all started out of the
edifice. And the MAN asked with some
eagerness: do you know herr"
II don't make a habit Of speaking
to people I do not know" I answered,
wondering at his enthusiasm.
He kept watching the girl while a
der new spring hats moved unnoticed
all around him.
A Delight to the Eye
Now, WHY were you so interested
in that girl in the old hat?" asked
when he had watched her out of sight.
LAS a delight to the eye she could not
compare with a number OF others"
Do you know, the MAN turned on me
with gentlemanly ferocity!
IT'S a pity girls never can get over
the notion that all men like to be
pleased through their eyes or their
stomachs"'
Perhaps I am like the other girls.
And, If there is another route to a
mans heart, should be glad to have
1t mapped out!' I snapped cynically.
TITS through a mans brain!" he as
serted.
And. possessed with that spirit OF
doubt which comes to all wonderland
stays with some-I demanded to be
shown what he meant.
"I'l bet that girl had a spring hat
at home; but she had too much prin-
ciple to wear it. She didn't want to be
one to reduce a day that ought to have
another meaning to a mere vanity ca
rouse" he grated.
