Disillusion as Aftermath.

But they don't live happily ever after.
the Grandest Girl in the World finds that
after she has hooked her man she doesn't
have to go into dry dock seven hours a
day to get primped up for the evening
call. No, indeed. 1t is a strange sensa-
ton, at first. to know that her meal tick
ct is coming home to her and that she
doesn't have to waste any expensive
French powder on her face to make him
happy. And SO gradually she gets out
of the habit of dressing to kill and begins
to find seven hours a day for loaf1ng in
bed with a wrapper on.
THE trOusseau lasts a few months. and
after that is gone the man that married
her begins to wonder why he never
noticed there were SO many other good
looking girls in the world. He's a good
fellow, but he wonders why it is his wife
doesn't look the way that swell dame
in the manicure shop looks. When he
gets home at night the former Grandest
Girl in the World has broken the record
and hasn't yet shaken out the curl papers
nor dotted the old blue wrapper.

.F|NERY AND CURL PAPER
AND DOMESTIC FELICITY
g..
Observations Based on Million
or Two of Police Court
Cases.

when Minona s. Jones, chairman of
the Illinois women's reformatory COM
mittee, broke out in print a few days ago
and G,clared that corsets and f1nery would
go a long way toward establishing delin-
quent women on a plane Of responsibility
she was telling the truth" remarked an
old time police court reporter today. Il
don't known Ninona, but I'll bet two
for-a-quarter cigar that she knows what
she is talking about. It's been my ex-
perience in watching about 2OOO,0 900 cases
in the police court that when a woman
begins to wear a wrapper twenty-three
hours out Of twenty-four she begins to
lose some Of her original ideas about how
polite she ought to be and arrives at
the stage where she makes gestures with
frying pan.
Views of Lowly Observer.
'Tm but lowly observer, and don't
pretend to be social reformer or any
thing like that, but, take it from me, I
believe there ought to be a law against
women coming down to breakfast in curl
papers and wrappers. That Is, after they
are married. I suppose there is some ex-
cuse for a single dame wearing curl
papers to breakfast. but I can't think of
any just now. However, I can tell you
all about 200 police court cases that never
would have happened if the wife hadn't
taken to the anti-corset habit and the
faded wrapper game all at once.
You see young fellow takes notice of
a girl: she's all diked out in her best
clothes. Oh she would weep copiously if
he should happen to get a glimpse of her
in anything but her finest finery. She
spends hours of the day preparing to
meet this grand young fellow. After a
process of manicuring, hair dressing,
shampooing, nassaging. rubbing. powder
ing, dressing, smoothing and pertaining,
the Grandest Girl in the World appears
before this deluded man for brief space
of time and he gets the impression that
she is the model on which the beauty
doctors base all their claims.

that he was dead, followed by anoth-
er that he was barely alive.
