NO matter how charming. pretty and

ambitious man must entail an eXpendi-

II. however. your principal motive for
marrying is not that of selfish personal

rather in the interests OF posterity, then
you can have but one choice and that is
early marriage. Eugenics favor the mar
rage OF the young man and the young
woman. Since the essential Object of
marriage is, or should be. possible ba-

correct answer to the question OF the
right age to marry.

INTERESTING ROMANCE
DUE TO A DESIGN
Unknown Scotch Lassie Becomes
Famous Through Her Art
and Beauty.

A young Scotch girl by name Jane
Arden, was recently presented at the
English Court and month later was

lassie came into notice London's leading
artists said: "If all the world was
searched more beautiful face and figure

The mcfarland blood is very blue, Sir
Edward is one OF the wealthiest and most
distinguished linen weavers in the British
kingdom. The marriage of his only son
and heir TO an unknown Highland girl
was an event that made society gossip.

Arden possessed She was an artist born;
the story If her fame and fortune runs
like this:
At the age of sixteen she took up de-
signing in a country school. Her teachers
sent some of her designs and patterns
TO the Maofarland mills, offering them
for sale.
Young mcfarland had just returned
from oxford and had entered into his
fathers business as a partner. Being
rather of an artistic temperament he
had been given charge OF the art depart
ment Of the great mills. He bought lit
tie Jane Arden's first designs and asked
land drafts in payment therefor. went
promptly back, always with the request
for others. On one occasion young Mac
farland asked the teacher. who sent in
the designs. for the name of the artist,
but being proud Of her pupil. and know
ing there was interest in mystery, this
request was refused.
The designs of the Macfarland mills
began to attract attention under its new

the work of this new and mysterious ar
list. He could not afford to have her
work go TO his competitors. Her teach
er was sought and with much difficulty
the name of Jane Arden was revealed.
Jack sought an interview with the young
girl and secured q contract with she and
her widowed mother TO control all her
designs and art work.
Jack took away his contract. but left
something vastly more important in the
keeping Of Jane Arden. He left some
thing that could not be sketched with
the artists pencil and upon which there
was no price.
Two years went by, the MacfarIand
designs became famous all over Europe.
Jack suggested in a courteous letter On
enc occasion that Jane send set of her
designs to him and he would send them
10 Mary, the present queen OF England,
which was done. They were at once
named the Imperial Patterns" The
queen adopted them for her court cos
tunes and pronounced them the most
beautiful designs IN the world Jane
Arden was sent for and presented at
Court also to the queen in private, who
took her hand and said. Il cannot tell
which is the pTetitest, your beautiful
face. your beautiful name or your beau

BURNS CAUSE DEATH
OF GERTRUDE MURPHY
Young Woman, Rescuing Mother
From Gas-Filled Room, Receives
Fatal Injuries.

Miss Gertrude Murphy, twenty-eight
years old. daughter of John Murphy of
915 street northwest. and sister of Tim
Murphy, the actor. died at Emergency
Hospital this morning. shortly after Z
o'clock. as a result of burns she sus-
tanned last night when she went to the
bathroom to rescue her mother. Mrs
Mary Murphy, who had been overcome
by gas.
The young woman thoughtlessly lighted
a match when she opened the door OF the
bathroom and stumbled over the uncon-
scious form of her mother. An explosion
followed and Miss Murphy and her ia
ther. hwo was only short distance from
the door, were burned. So loud was the
report that neighbors heard it and hur-
ried to the house to ascertain the cause.
Mr.. Murphy, suffering from painful
burns, dragged his wife and daughter
from the bathroom, and telephoned to
No. Z engine company. Mrs. Murphy, who
is sixty-eight years old, was hurried to
Freedmen's Hospital, while the husband
and daughter were taken to Emergency
Hospital.
DIR. G. j.. Boyce, who responded with
the ambulance and took charge of father
and daughter found Miss Murphy had
sustained burns covering so much of her
body that it was necessary to float her
in a tub at the hospital to prevent intense
suffering.
At Freedmen's Hospital Mrs Murphy
regained consciousness, but she was un-
able to recall much of her experience in
the bathroom. knowing nothing about
her daughter having been burned. The
mother had escaped the worst of the
fire. Miss Murphy regained consciousness
after reaching Emergency Hospital. She
was unable to tell much of the affair,
however, and physicians did not annoy
her toget the details.

and Mrs. Murphy will recover. The fire
