Pat had been at work for three days
digging a well, and as the foreman
wanted it finished within the week he
had promised Pat another man TO help
him. 1t was getting on to II O'Clock,
and Towser the foremans bulldog, was
looking over the edge of the pit, when
Pat said OF himself: III have a smoke"

about to light it when he glanced up
and beheld Towser's handsome fea-

~ AYSEY MAMYE APPLETON was
arrayed not only in a new Paris
gown and new furs, but in the
consciousness that she was doing good
in way that was both select and fash
ionable.
She ordered her chauffeur to stop mis-
machine before the dingiest of East
Side tenements, and then called to the
newspaper photographers,
II have come" she said, ito investi-
gate the condition Of the kimono strik-
ers. Please take my picture with a
front view so as to give the best eff
fects to my philanthropic expression"
Having thus submitted much against
her WILL to dozen snapshots, Miss APP
pleton arose in her car Waving a
muff containing enough fur to cover
a dozen shivering shoulders as a sig
nal to the half frozen, half starved
girls gathered around that she was
ready to address them, she began:
my dears," she said in a voice as
sweet as a dinner bell 81 am here to
give advice that will help you. In the
first place, you misJudge us. You think
because we are rich we have no sor-
rows.

grave" here her voice broke and her
tears began to fall. II buried my dar-
ling this morning, my life, my ALL"
Sobs choked her, but she went brave
ly on. Il spent thousands of dollars on
changes of climate, medical attention,
and the daintiest of food, but he was
not spared me. Oh, my dear sisters
| though 1 am wealthy, have my Geth-
semane. He was three years old, a
| Pekinese. and the finest spaniel in the
city"
For a moment she was unable to
| speak. eve rich have other sorrows,
too" she continued. Il have had to
| change maids twice this month, my
chauffeur can't speak word of French
and every luncheon / gave for the pet
| buried this morning was ruined by

Il have come with my sorrow to help
you bear yours. Let me suggest that
you brace your spirit for the conflict by

corsets, affinities and soul ambitions in
a most delicate manner
Il have been told that some of you
are starving for bread. l will remind
| you of what the famous French woman
| said when the peasants cried for bread,
| Why don't they eat cake" My dear
suffering sisters, you will find cake. if
1t contains plenty of fresh eggs more
nutritious than bread"
Then she took her seat, waved good
| bye with her muff. and ordered the
| chauffeur to drive on.

MOST CERTAINLY NOT.

Dear Miss Fairfax:
I have been keeping company
with a gentleman for the past six
months. in which time we have had
two or three slight quarrels, not
amounting to very much, and after
they are all over, we seem to love
each other more than ever. He is
very nice when we are alone, but
as soon as we meet any of his
friends or my friends (Which is
very, very SELDOM he is very cold
and Indifferent to me and almost
ignores me. Another thing is. I
love him very, very much and
would 90 most anything for him,

n is justified, and by "pretense' l
mean a pleasing hypocrisy?
The stern moralists who gauge their
conduct by the width of a hair will say
most certainly not. I contend there is.
| contend further that all Of us, like
Little Dorrit. can be of greater use in
the world by pretending just little.
But the pretense must be optimistic
pretense. We must not pretend that
things are worse than they are. We
must pretend they are better
We must occasionally pretend to be
pleased when we are far from it. We
must pretend we like that which a
friend gives US when we don't, and we
must pretend, day after day, in big
things and little, that we are satisfied
when we are not.
T sometimes think that the woman
never lived who could make her father
and her brothers happy; who could win
and keep a lover. and who could please
a husband without pretending a little
and pretending often.
The men are great blunderers. They
seldom get a woman's viewpoint ana
in their attentions to her they do what
pleases them, and she must make that
please her.
4 mother knows what her daughter
likes; father spends more and buys
what is neither appropriate nor pleas
ing. As a girl she learns that she must
be pleased because he bought It; she
can't find pleasure in the gift.
The men love laughter, and a girl
must be pleased when her lover buys
tickets for q laugh producing play,
though she prefers tragedy.
She must pretend to be pleased when
her husband, in the overlooking gen
crosby Of his heart, is persuaded by
some eloquent clerk to buy her bright
green dress when she wants and WouIe
look better in a brown,
She must remember a hundred times
a day to look at the spirit that prompts
a kindly attention, and not with criti-
cal eyes at the manner in which the
attention is manifested.
In her dealings with her friends she
must pretend to be pleased at uneX-
pected company when every house
wifely instinct is panic-stricken. She
must pretend, when friend has pur~
chased a hat, and must keep it and
wear it. that the hat is becoming. She
must pretend that a friend is looking
well when the truth would trighten
that friend into an illness.
She must pretend that she likes the
dahlias a friend send her, though she
prefers violets. She must pretend that
she is pleased at the gift of book Of
poems though she reads only prose.
And she must pretend-oh, such q
tragic number of times-that she is
happy when she is not! She must learn
that this pretense is every woman's
heritage, and that, like Little Dorrit
she can be of no use unless she prac-
tees It.

HIS REMARKS SIGNIFY NOTHING.

Dear Miss Fairfax:
! am twenty and am going out
with a young man a few years my
senior for the last six or seven
weeks. | am learning to love him
more and more daily, and as my
folks are starting in to question me
regarding him. and he doesn't seem
to say anything. but occasionally
he remarks that men are foolish
when they marry, should l give him
up or wait, as | have plenty Of
other admirers, but care for none
but him? MARY.
If he says men are foolish to marry,
it is evident the thought Of marrying
is in his mind. 1t seems to me your
anxiety is premature. He has been
calling on your only few weeks. which
is entirely too soon for him to know his
own mind. Give some of your time to
your other admirers. 1t Will be god

A Bachelor S
Diary
By MAX.

TEBRUARY ct is two days since
II l started to tell you, Diary, about
my ride with the widow, and there
isn't much to tell of what really hap
pened. 1t is what might have hap
pened, and didn't, that makes my asso-
citation with her both alluring and eX-
citing.
She insinuated that I was a coward.
knew that she meant l was afraid of
her There was look in her eyes that
dared me.
Continue" said Warning No II, "to
act the coward"
Il confess that l am far from a brave
man when in your presence" 1 said,
but could man pay woman a higher
compliment"
"Why," said she, changing the sub
ject "have you never married."
Again the story of my life I think
a woman likes a man to tell her the
story Of his life, in the hope that he
will tell her something very dreadful.
She wants to be thrilled and shocked,
and she likes above all else to see a
man sinner on his knees. Had / turned
to some very black page and told the
widow ! had been very wicked, and
was trying to be a better man, she
would have twisted my confession of
crime into admission that l needed the
influence of good woman like her to
become brave and good and strong;
that because of my sense of shame and
humility l had not asked her to share
my life. And she would straightway
prove herself forgiving angel by MAX
ing herself my guardian and guide.
l was so sure of what she would do
that l decided to try it,
! let my head sink on my breast, as
one who deeply felt his sense of shame,
and was silent.
Go on she said softly, putting her
hand on my arm. You may think l
hadn't begun. hut she knew l had. The
trouble, Diary, is that you are only a
lot of pages in a book, and she is
woman, and you don't understand.
Il was weak and wilful," I said,
throwing intense feeling into my voice,
for / rather liked the pressure of her
hand on my arm, and young and in
older, and so worldly wise"
l hesitated. Go on" insisted the
widow, and her hand slipped from my
arm into my hand, where it remained.
that it might give me the sympathetic
pressure of encouragement one so
overwhelmed with remorse so evident
ly needed.
fr, N~1t liz !
to hesitate often, for l couldn't quite
decide which of the many black crimes
of my youth TO confess. As l expected,
she mistook my hesitation for repug-
nance to uncover a past so dreadful
and the sympathetic pressure of my
hand became squeeze.
The situation was extremely pleas
ant, Diary, and l decided to prolong it,
NO matter what you have done"
said the widow in very tender voice,
you may rest secure in my under
standing and sympathy. Perhaps l can
| help you. You know a good woman,
Max" speaking my name softly as if
to apologize for using it, can always
! find ways to defeat the ends of a wick
ed woman"
| A wicked woman! I had to cough to
choke back q laugh, and she mistook
the cough for a half-repressed sob, and
| her hold on my hand became a little
! tighter
No more tonight, Diary A telephone
| message that a business acquaintance
wants to see me in the lobby calls me
away.

KILLS HIS WIFI: AND CHILD
Young South Dakota Farmer Said TO

Watertown, S. D., Dec. 16.-After he
had beaten his wife with his fist ALL
gust Justine, young farmer living
near Bryant, Hamline county, accord.
ing to his alleged confession, struck
her with washboard and a tea
kettle to beat the last spark of life
from her body; then killed his eight
months-old child. Neighbors discov-
cred the bodies of mother and child
lying in the kitchen of the farmhouse.
Justine told the authorities, they
say, that he was driven to insane
rage by the attitude of his wife in an
argument with him. After the double
murder the man, it is alleged, took his
three other children, aged six, three
and two years, to bed with him. At
the home of his wife's parents, to
which he drove next day, his peculiar
actions are said to have lea 70 an in

MIL|TANTS KEEPING
THE POLICE BUSY
Release Of Mrs. Pankhurst Their
Price Of Peace,

London, Dec. ia suffragette
threw hammer through the window
of a police station and then followed
the hammer inside when a policeman
arrested her The militants are
boasting that they will keep up their
annoyances and destruction as long
as the government continues to arrest
Mrs. Pankhurst. .a.t .
The American suffragette, Miss
Zelle Emerson of Jackson. Mich, was
the central figure Of a furious scrim.
mage between the police and suffra.
gettes and their supporters in Bow
street. Miss Emerson and three men
were arrested.
The suffragettes attempted a dem.
onstration before the house of coun.
cilors. One hundred police, mounted
and afoot, quickly corralled the dem
onstrators, and, failing to dissuade
them from their proposed action,
charged the procession.
They seized Miss Emerson and
men and women rushed to her rescue.
A wild scene followed and women and
children were thrown to the ground
and trampled. When the field was
cleared the injuries turned out not to
be serious.
The police captured many suffra,
gette banners which they tore to
shreds.
The suffragette arson squad set fire
to lumber yard at Davenport and de-
stroyed property worth over 100000.
