Any article, even a husband or

What the April WOman's Home
Companion Contains.

The April number of Woman's
Home Companion is brimful,
pressed down and overfows with
the spirit of Easter. 1t is a riot of
joyousness, of frilly Easterfrocks
of new spring hats, of gardens,
music, verse and entertaining
fiction. But underneath the spark
lie and lightness of the suface at
fractions of this magazine lies
the splendid bedrock of all it's
helpful departments and strong
special articles.
The fiction in the April
Woman's Home Companion in
cludes the second part of "The
Flight of the Magic Carpet, a
charming story of love, adventure
and a motor car by G. N. and A.

who thought she had very little
brains" but proved the contrary

tains an Easter hymn by Richard

Steton Crawford, and an article
on equal suffrage, "Why l Want

scorned to read a woman's maya

Girl Who Destroys Chivalry

men about had queer. swordlike incl

Short-Sighted Animal
In your heart you hoped that you
might find "the one" waiting for you.
Yet, like a short-sighted animal, you
grabbed the seat and never realized
that you were destroying the ehiv-
airy which is necessary to your hap
piness as a woman and insulting the
motherhood which will one day be
your own experience. Haven't you
any sense? Can't you see that you
are pulling the props from under your

The Prompted Courtesy

Your mother and the suitcase stood
in the aisle. And you were smiling
and smirking Thank you'' which said,
as plainly as words, that you knew
your youth and good looks had
prompted the courtesy. ~
The look on the fat mans face was
one that contorted his comfortable fea-
lures to unaccustomed severity. His
seat was just as certainly an offering
on the altar Of chivalry as any flower
or gift ever was a tribute at a shrine.
But II had been laid at the feet Of an
ANIMAL instead of q goddess. YOU
got II. '.
Your mother-oh yes! she was partly
to blame, for she had allowed yoI
to become what you are-stood there In
the aisle clutching at strap; and a
slow flush mounted her pale face
You were dressed in very neat and
stylish fashion for travelling. II was

TT may-it will-seem to one whose
i finer nature Is SO noticeable for
its absence that a long journey
around Robin Hoods barn leads to you
as the destroyer Of chivalry. But you
cannot hide. Crtnge as you will behind
the door, brazen your discovery as you
may with the pitchfork of your words,
you are the culprit!
With your mother and a suitcase
which your mother carried--you- en-
tered the crowded car. A fat man,
whose size and general structure gave
evidence to the fact that he liked to sit
down, got up. 1t was his chivalry that
literally derricked his two hundred ease
loving pounds out OF his seat. It pulled
him right up. and It pulled of his hat
as he turned to you and to your mother.
And YOU SAT DOWN.
