but, In each instance, she had mis-
taken the young mans meaning. Real
izing she was only a fairly cookbook
ing girl, not beauty, she put this and
that together and imagined they were
disappointed in her.
She was never at home when they
called next time. Her idea Of mans
notion needed uprooting. It's the worst
of folly for a girl to believe any sane
man would propose marriage to one
whom he had seen only by artificial
! light, decked out in airy, fairy APP
parel; her hair freshly curled and
banded by ribbon and bow. A man may
see young woman at a ball and think
her the most beautiful creature he
ever beheld But when he turned his
back on the lights and the music she
would be but a fair memory to him.
The girl acquaintance whom he meets
on the street in her everyday apparel,
thick walking boots, sweater and Tam
O-Shanter cap, pulled down over her
curls, bright Of eye, rudy Of cheek,
strikes a different chord in his heart.
He enjoys walking and chatting be-
side her. She may have a freckle on
her chin, with very uneven pearls for
teeth. But, bless you, he doesn't mind
that bit as he listens to her rollick-
ing laugh and spontaneous good
humor.
If he falls in love with lass in day
time, she may feel well assured his az
lection will be of lasting quality. The
evening sweetheart may be charming,
but good, sensible man-that's the
only kind worth having-seldom or
never proposes marriage until he has
seen the sunshine fall on her face.

Today In Holland there is harmony

the rest of the world as the great cen

peaceful arbitration may spread, slow

the earth.
The first book on international peace
the world has ever seen was written
by a Hollander. Hugo de Groot, as
early as 1921. The world now seems
ready to apply the idea OF peace, and
large number Of disputes between
nations have already been settled In

It still has a mission to fulfill In the

THE BUSINESS GIRLS HOPES.

Hope makes one confident and gay;
Clouds at her bidding disappear
Points she to aught, the bliss draws near
And fancy smooths the way.
1t is not every young woman who
considers that marriage is the jump
ing-off place of satisfied ambition and
hope. There are girls of thought
full turn of mind who consider 1t
praiseworthy to fit themselves for
some especial duty in this work-a-day
world. When a young woman knows
that she has no one to look to for sup
port, she realizes that she must buckle
on the armor and face the situation
not only bravely but eagerly. Those
who must earn their own living look
with wonder upon the weaklings who
shrink from honest labor.

They never know what it Is to have

whims of the head Of the house no
matter how bitterly their hearts may
rebel in secret.
The business girl knows no such de-
pendence. She earns her own way

she may go elsewhere. She sensibly
puts heart and soul into her work,

NINE SENATORS REVOLT
AGAINST SECRET SESSIONS
la Toilette Leads Outbreak in Senate
After Daniels Is Confirmed
Will Defy ALL

Washington, April 6.-Nine mem
bers OF the senate, headed by Senator
La Toilette, openly revolted Friday
against proceedings behind closed
doors after an executive session in
which the senate, by vote of SO to q,
confirmed the nomination of Winthrop
NJ. Daniels of New Jersey to be a
member OF the interstate commerce
commission
Senator La Toilette declared on the
floor that he proposed to defy the
rules of the senate in future and dis
cuss publicly legislation not affecting
foreign relations and later it was an
nounced that Senators Bristow. Cum
Minis. Clapp, Kenyon, Norris, Jones
and Gronna, Republicans, and Poin-
dexter, Progressive. would maintain
the same attitude.
The revolt created a sensation and
there was much speculation as to the
effect it would have upon future exec
utive sessions. The general opinion
was that there would be no attempt to
take action against members who dis
regarded the rule of secrecy.

lay.

SLEiGHING WITH HIS BEST GIRLS
CHUM.

See the lovers so
With steed and bell over the snow,
What care they for wint'ry skies
Rapt, looking in each others eyes?"
If girl has beau whom she has
every reason to believe will one day
become nearer and dearer should she,
at the same time, make bosom friend
of girl chum? She is so apt to tell
her friend her most sacred thoughts
in a burst of confidence. She whis-
pers to her falteringly, even the love
words he has breathed to her. She
accepts blindly her friends opinion
as to how deeply her lover may be
enamored of her. II the friend is true
blue, she will refuse to listen and to
comment
All girls are not constant. There
are some who are not to be trusted too
far where there Is a desirable young
man in the case.
First, the seed of envy may find
root in her heart. If she is brought
much In contact with the young man
the treacherous friend may conclude
as long as no actual engagement ex-
lists, that 1t wouldn't be a bit of harm
to set her cap for him and cut her
friend out. II she knows her friend
does not enjoy sleigh riding, she sug-
gests adroitly she'd like to have at
least one sleigh ride during the sea
son. The girl asks her beau if he
will take her bosom friend instead Of
herself when he drives up with his
sleigh and mettlesome horses. He is
disappointed, but he cannot refuse
The girl at the window waves him
goodby, wondering If she Is doing just
right.
Maybe a girl knows that there Is
nothing SO romantic as sleigh riding
in among the soft, velvet cushions. the
fur robes tucked in tightly, just room
enough for two. The cool wind brings
roses to her cheeks, the stars seem to
reflect their brightness in her eyes,
the tinkling bells chime in unison with
her merry laughter. Every girl seems

TRANSFERRED AFFECTIONS.

"A woman may be attracted by as
cumed qualities. but her affections
should only be fixed by those that are
real" said a wise man. Another adds:
"Why were men given affections and
not the power to govern them?"
1t is an open question with many a
single woman in her early thirties,
who is alone in the world save for a
married sister, as TO whether she
should make her home with her.
There are women who shrink from
boarding among strangers and yearn
for seat at the table with their own
kith and kin. The married sister Is
anxious that she should come. The
brother-in-law does not care much one
way or the other. The young lady
niece frowns on the proposition, al
though the youthful aunt may be
scarcely a few years older than herself.
II the aunt has an admirer, a man
rich in the worlds goods, who calls
upon her constantly the sister thinks
1t might hasten the marriage II there
was homelike place to invite him to.
The aunt takes the same view OF
It. 1t often happens that change of
environment causes mans thoughts
to take a new turn.
The single woman's life and expec-
tations may be running along smooth
ly until the wooer Is brought In con-
tact with the vivacious niece. There
are young girls who respect such an
aunt's privileges. There are some 9th.
or needless, thoughtless young wom-
en- who believe that they only should
hold loves scepter. The woman Of
mature years Is sensible. Many a
youthful maid Is giddy fluffy being
full of attraction. She thinks 1t would
be jolly joke to make eyes at auntie's
rich beau.
In some instances, as a man grows
older the more he yearns for all that
is youthful. The attentions Of a
young girl, which would not have
cost him a thought In his youth, fiat
ter him in middle age. He is at that
susceptible period when It is but a
step for him from admiration to in
fatuation. The idea that he could gain
the love o. a young girl turns his head
completely. Love swamps his honor.
aye, his prudence.
Without ado, he transfers his affec-
lions from the woman to the laugh
ing, giggling chit of girl. That it
will bring heartaches it matters not
to him. He never sees his mistake
until some day, dashing young fellow
comes along and he receives dose of
his own medicine. His misery is
laughed at by the giddy young thing
for whom he broke an honest, worthy,
womanly heart. The man who transfers
his affection without good reason from
one woman to another usually gets
paid back in his own coin.
