Emotions of Women Fear
BY WINNIE LEE.

The fear of woman is a good
deal like that of the elephant for
the mouse; it is excited by very in
consequential things!
A woman will go down into the
valley of the shadow with a
smile on her lips and. come out of
1t with the light of love shining
in her eyes. And a week later
she will have Mysteries If friend
comes into her parlor wearing
that emblem of bad luck-a pea
cocks featherl
Fear in a woman Is almost en-
tirely feeling! it lacks reason. But
it is one of the protective intui-
lions; it is natures first aid in
danger; 1t is the original life
buoy.
But woman, not requiring 1t in
her greatest experiences, has
come to use fear inversely as the
square of danger. She has in
dulged it in unimportant matters
until it has become perverted and
is now the source of her most
serious limitations.
AFRAID of being out of style,
woman spends for clothes extrav-
agantly.
AFRAID of living in the wrong
neighborhood, she fills the peck
cts of landlords from her old age
savings account.
AFRAID of losing her "posi-
tion," she drags her husband to
social martyrdom, seven nights a
week and Sunday afternoons.
AFRAID of Mrs. Grundy's
sneers, she hires servants to do
her work-and a masseuse to re-
duce her flesh
And all these things are dis
asters, for by them she is never
HERSELF, but a composite pho
tograDh of a dozen other peo-
pie, SCARED to be different
from the crowd, FRIGHTENED
for fear somebody will think her
unlike everybody else-SHE BE-
COMES COMMONPLACE.
No wonder she hasn't histori-
cal record for accomplishment
no great epic, nor great painting.
nor great music to her credit
anywhere. These things mean be-
ing ORIGINAL, which is the same
thing as being different"
But in one experience of her
life is woman always unafraid.

HOW TO MAKE THE BEST

The effectiveness of this simple

ltely beautiful regions, meets all

Gus beings, and at last finds her.
self In the palace of King Midas.
Miss Marguerite Favar, in the
leading role, is a capable actress,
and the dainty fantasy is really
a genuine relief from the ordi-
nary run of vaudeville attractions.
Bob Albright, known as the
male Melba," and who has been
seen here before, entertains his
audience with some new songs,
singing them in his inimitable
style. Reeds trained bulldogs
are an innovation to vaudeville,
and the little animals scored great
applause yesterday. Dunbar and
Turner, who have IA minutes re-
cess from a "daffy factory" live
up to the advertisement. Their
act is so "daffy" that it is ire
mendously funny. AL Haynes,
Miss Julia Raymond, and Miss
Grace Bernard, in THE Critic and
the Girl" a funny play in which
newspaper editor forgets his
home ties In his infatuation for
an actress, and is rudely brought
back to earth again by his spouse,
could scarcely improve their act.
The entire bill this week is, If
anything, a decided improvement
over any bill of recent months.

For the Princess show this
week is distinctly a "girl-show."
The Rosebud chorus, with a few
principals to fill in the time that
it is changing costumes, form the
entire show. The girls are much
better trained than last weeks

gracefully, and their drills are
