5ohA1 GIRLS IN QUIET FAMILIES


 The lightest of all;
 My laughter rings cheery and loud
 In banquet and hall
 My lip hath it's smiles and it's snears For all men to see;
 But my soul. and my truth, and nay 5 Are for theeare for thee
 As a general rule, very jolly girls are attracted to their opposite in dis position.
 The girl bubbling over with merry laughter, full of life-a veritable hu- man sunbean-ffnds an irresistible very sedate young man who looks af- lection out of his eyes, but whose lips are mute. His quiet, masterfu1s manner appeals to her.
 She marries him with little or nc. seourtsflip.
 with his folks the jolly little bride is like a flower transplanted into a. diff ferent gard en The young husband comes honestly by his quiet nature. He takes after his cold, austere, un- denonstrative mother, whose heart is in the right place, but she has no way of showing it.
 To the jollst girl who was used to balls and parties, after theatre sup pers and tango dancing into the wee sma hours, ere she met her quiet bean the rule of closing the house at nine-thirty sharp was almost intoler- able. $
 In vain she appeals to her young husband Mothers been doing the very same thing every day as long as I can remember, " he says It wouldn't be possible for her to change her way of living now
 But T don't want to live midst old ] conditions while E m youngr, persists the bride There's no such thing a s having 8 cup Of chocolate brought to ones room. This is a house Of rule,s' she goes on desperately. One has to be up at six thirty. breakfast at seven by the minute, keep at household du- ties till twelve, thirty minutes for luncheon of cheese, crackers and weak tea
 l A guest dropping in Of an afternoon is looked upon with holy horror One has to converse with jolly friends in whispers lest the sound Of laughter should get beyond the crack of the parlor door, Dinner Is served at six sharp.
 There's no bit of news discussed over the teacups; no delicious bit of scandal rolled mischievouslyIso over the tongue. Disposing quietly Of the vf- ands set before onesis attended to in quiet, almost silence. The parlor is dark. One may sit up in her room and read or retire as one pleases. But the fires are banked up for the night precisely at nine. Rowing Tom, the cat. who detests rules, must be in. The doors are locked and securely ,bolted thereafter. The house is given over to darkness and silence. The ! jolly sunbeam of wife soon droope. The upshot is, the husband soon real izes that it is far wiser for him to i take her to a, home of her own, be it but a few plain rooms, than to keep her in an environment which chi1ls the warmest heart In after years, jolly little girls may become sedate wives. Up to that time they want their fling of pleasure, while youth theirs. Taking a bride home to live with his parents sounds delightful, but doesn't always work out we'll. Jolly hearts change soon enough. The married couple will be living together

UNCERTAIN HOW TO
 SPEAK OF MARRIAGE
Dear Miss Ldbbey:

Dear Miss Libbey:
 Am young man of twenty going with a girl of same age. I love her very much. Would like to ask her to marry me, but am uncertain how to bring up the topic Think she loves me- Gratefully I ask your advice.
 W. A. M
 Why that is the simplest thing in life to hesitate about The heart when it is full of love will prompt you to speak then and there. never fear. Possibly the young lady's parents, if they approve of your suit and are irs- |clined to be clever could at some op- perfume time help the matter along. Then. again. it may be that they would consider your age, implying that you have plenty of time to utter the sentiment which you now have. Remember through all difficulties, that faint heart never one fair Iady,'

BETROTHED, YET LOOKS
 FOR OTHER GIRLS

Dear Miss L1bbey.
 Am betrothed girl of twenty Fiance told me he calls on other girls. I. never allow other men call on me Don't think 1t right. If I were the only girl for him would he want to enjoy their society? Should tell him what I think? If he's unwilling to give up their society do you ad- wise our engagement be broken? I love him, but if he wants other girls society before we are married he would want it afterwards. Am un- reasonable?
 ]. No you are not unreasonable, but right in your surmise- Have you had heart to- heart talk with him? Per haps he would do differently if SO. There are some men who think girls
 indifferent to attentions of betrothed ed to other~ Theirs is an odd love, but yours can be corrected if you come out and speak of 1t in time.

.Is it proper for women to applaud at a theatre or concert haI1?'' was Mazie's question of a society friend.
 "Oh, yes,' was, the answer. tsWo- men seldom applaud, but not because propriety necessarily forbids it; it is chiefly because the tight fitting gloves render ''clappingH almost an impos- sibiIity. There is no reason why la dies may not applaud if they can.

citixensIhip.

Philadelphia, Pa.-Citizenship foE
the American Indian was advocated
by speakers at the .mid-year ,necting
of the Society of American Indians,
held at the Academy of National
Sciences. Indians from all sections OF
the country were present.
THAT admission to full citizenship
and the right to- ownership rather
than occupancy of land should be
granted the Indian was expressed by
ali speakers. They stated that tho
Indian should possess the right to
apply to the courts, for redress and
asked that congress form q code that
viii settle the legal status of the In
dian in this country forever.
Babe T.. Parker, the newly APP
pointed registrar of the treasury. a
full-blooded Choctaw, declared that
the proper treatment Of the. Indian
is to regard him as man, and let
him work out his own salvation. He
said that tribal life must be
abandoned before the Indian can be-
come self-supporting and a vital force
in our national life. He has made
great progress in adapting himself to
the life of the country. continued the
speaker. and he must be recognized as
man of capabilities.
