Life and love and laughter, the voices
of little children, the faces of old
friends. the roar of the surf, the song
of the winds In the signing trees-all
this we heard, all this we felt when
she who had worked SO hard played
for us.
And when she had finished and the
program was at and end, man WHO
believes in talking cup" to women
went and spoke to her.
What beautiful little hands you
have" he said, "how do you ever
strike an octave?"
/ suppose he is wondering yet why
the woman stared at him in such
dismay and astonishment that she
couldn't even think to answer him.
/ suppose that man would walk up
to n woman just fresh from the
battlefield, with her dying boy in her
arms, and tell her how beautiful her
eyes were, and expect her to listen to
him and be pleased.
If this is talking up" to us, gen
tlemen, please, oh, please! talk down
just little!
Tell us the things we really want
to know--your hopes, your plans, your
disappoin$ments, your ambitions.
Talk to us of the real things Of life
once in q while. You'll be surprised
to see what real creatures we are,
made Of flesh and blood, just like you,
after all, we women.

searched my brain wildly for an
answer. Where did l want to go?
| If | should tell this solicitous police
man the truth. Anywhere. for a
walk" 1 felt that he would look upon
me with suspicion.
The sight of another automobile
bus numbering up the avenue gave
me an inspiration
"I want to take a bus" said.
"All right, lady. I'll take you over
to 1t. You want to remember next
time that they stop on this side of
the street"
"Plenty of Room"
He still grasped my arm firmly as
IL he suspected me of an intention to
run away from him. l entered the
bus and sat down. Then l had a sud-
den thought. Why not ride outside?
It is one of my favorite summer di-
versions, the ride on the top of the
big bus. although had never ridden
there in the winter time. But the
day was unusually mild. almost like
spring, although 1t was January. and
I was warmly clad. Indeed I had
found my heavy long coat very op-
pressive in my walk. II would be just
the thing for ride.
AS 1 paid my fare, spoke to the
conductor.
"Is there room on top7"
He grinned widely. PLENTY of
room, LADY,"
When l climbed the winding stairs
to the top, found his words were
only too true. One man, enveloped in
a big fur coat and smoking vigor-
ously, sat in a rear seat. The rest of
the seats were empty.
A Surprising Meeting.
I would have turned and gone down
again, but I did not like to face the
conductors wide grin, SO walked
calmly to the front seat Of the bus,
always my favorite when I can get
1t, and settled down to enjoy my ride.
All the world and his wife appeared
to be on the avenue. My seat on the
front of the bus WAS like a box seat
in theater. From It / could look
down on the people below. could see
beautifully costumed women in auto
mobiles and on foot, and Jostling them
closely came numbers of other women
in the cheapest kind of clothing, yet
all of it carefully initiating the cost
lier attire.
No place for real sllabbiness on the
avenue Plenty of shoddiness, plenty
of cheap imitation, but I did not see
single person whose dress showed
real poverty.
The men whom saw looked pros
porous, too. Some of them hurried by
with the preoccupied air that belongs
to the city business man. Others
stro1led along as If the mornings
walk was the only thing to occupy
their minds.
As the bus came to a stop opposite
the great public library building,
blocked by one of the frequent For
ty-second street jams" l saw one of
these strollers lift his eyes to the top
of the bus where I sat. I recognized

him with q queer little sinking feel
ing at my heart. II was Harry I'm
derwood.
My dislike of this man was becom-
ing almost an obsession: IT was not
lessened by the unreasonlng little
fear that crept over me whenever
saw him.
AS he saw me. his face lighted up
with smile which, even In the face
OF my aversion to him, I had to adj
NIT was charming. He took off his
hat and bowed to me, then with
swift measuring glance at the dis
tance between him and the door of
the omnibus, started toward 1t.
had a feeling of panic. Evidently
he meant to mount the steps Of the
bus and share my ride.
What should I do?
How Madgo Escaped from Harry Under

When I saw Harry Underwood hur-
rying toward the door of the omni-
bus on the top of which was riding
! half rose from my seat in a wild
idea of flight.
I knew that he intended to Join me.
] felt that / could not ride up Fifth
avenue conspicuously seated upon the
top Of bus with this man by my
Iside.
But g. second thought made mo stay
where 1 was. 1 could not reach the
street and get away unobserved. He
would meet me coming down. / had
Experienced enough of his persistence
to know that he would turn and walk
with me wherever l went. was
afraid he would urge me TO have
lunch with him.
Unreasoning and silly as I felt the
feeling to be, yet 1 really felt safe
with hims on the top of an omnibus
than l would walking with him on
the street. 1 resolved to stay where
was, to treat his appearance In the
most matter of fact way, and to In
vent an errand in some part of the
uptown route of the bus which would
enable me to leave him suddenly.
So when / heard his deep voice a
moment later l was able to return
his greeting coolly.
Inspecting the Street of the Big
Bluff? How do you like it?' He
bowed moclkingly.
VERY much indeed. Why do you
call 1t that?"

unpleasantness other than the dislike
always had of his presence.

"I am going to give a party" said
Billy Bull Frog one day, land I must
get someone to carry the invitations
! for me-
"Tll do that for you" said Blue
Bird which happened to be sitting on
! bush by the pond. and always want
ed to do something for someone.
So the invitations were sent out TO
everybody in the woods. and Billy
Bull Frog talked of nothing else but
his party, and what a grand affair 1t
would be for days before 1t came off.
Mrs. Squirrel made herself new
dress, with O sash to cover her tail,
which was not brush, as she could
have wished 1t to be. and Mrs. Rabbit
made all the little rabbits O. new white
dress and that took some little time,
because there were a great many little
bunnies All the birds chartered so
about the party that no one could
sleep that morning, and Mr.. and Mrs.
Owl said they never remembered such
fuss over party before, which went
to prove that Billy Bull Frog was a
great society fellow
When the hour arrived they all
gathered around the pond and Billy
Bull, with a spanking clean white
vest, hoped to welcome them.
The little Bunnies kept looking FOR
the goodies they expected to have at
a party, and Mrs. Squirrel said she
had looked everywhere but she saw
no signs of q banquet. The birds
hoped about picking up seeds and
looked under bushes, but nowhere
could anyone find table spread for a
feast.
II thought we might have a game
of leap frog" said Billy Bull after q
easy.
Leap frog" said Mrs. Squirrel.
you didn't invite us here to play
that clownish game, hope"
"I can't see a thing" said Mrs. Owl
from the tree above. II wish you
would have a party at night, Billy
Bull Frog. You knew we'll enough 1
seldom go out in the daytime"
'Well, we will play something else"
said Billy Bull. II only just men
toned that game because | have al
ways played It, We can play tag or
hide and seek"
my children are all dressed in their
best Clothes" said Mrs. Bunny, land
L dl0 not come 10 purity 10 play
games, did you, Mrs. Squirrel?" she
said, looking very wise.
mo, indeed, 1 did not" replied Mrs.
Squirrel. "but that seems to be all
there Is TO do. I don't see any table. !"
Nor /. Nor l." said the birds.
"Billy Bull, where is your dining
room?" asked a Blue Jay. you have
asked us to a party and we all came
here. We have been sitting for an
hour and you ask us to play games"
Eyes" said Mrs. Squirrel. land am
hungry. / didn't eat much today be-
cause | knew I was coming to this
party"
Billy Bull began to hop about un-
easily, and looked at the other frogs
who sat by the pond. He had plenty
to eat, but he had just thought of
something that had quito escaped his
mind before, and he wondered how he
was to tell his guests.
my dear friends" he said at last,

The gentleman from the sunny
South stood up to speak at the
luncheon in the friendly North the
other day.
II have never spoken to a ladies'
guest, land I am little embar-
rassed,
II asked the president of this club
how to talk to you, and she said:
Talk to us as II we were men, about
whatever interests you. The only
thing is, don't talk down to u.s. I
can't imagine what she meant. I have
never talked down to q woman in my
life. I always talk up to them"
And we all laughed and applauded
and were very pleased.
I wonder II the distinguished guest
really thinks he really meant what
he said.
| have heard him talk "up" to the
ladies, and 1t was all could do to
keep from smiling.
All he said was something about
birds and flowers and the evening
breeze, and the fair lilies and the
blushing rose, and sweet music and
the poets, but every time he got a
chance he said something about
bright eyes and sweet voices and
lovely forms, too, and most of the
women who listened to him pinched
their hands very close together under
the table and did the best they coulo
to keep from laughing outright
Do tfey really think they are talK-
ing up to women when they ten US
about things like this--the very pollte
gentlemen who still believe That wom-
- I.srA IL yan
Do they really mean what they say
when they pretend to think we aren't
human at all, but Just lovely angels,
who live on honey and dew, and never
think in anything but poetry and
blank verse?
Where did they get such an idea?
Not from us, you may be sure.
A woman I know has worked for
ten years to learn to play the plano.
She gave up her youth and her
strength, her home and her friends. !.
She left her native country and said
good-by to her brothers and sisters,
and she left her mother to die alone
among strangers while she went away
and studied.
Day and plight she studied, month
in and month out.
Spring came in beauty; summer
passed in glory: autumn came to tri-
umph, and the SHOWS of winter fell
in fury. She knew nothing, she
dreamed nothing. she felt nothing but
her work.
And now she has graduated from a
great conservatory, the favorite pupil
of famous teacher, and the other
day she came home across the ocean,
and she gave concert.
We all went to the concert and
heard her play. and while she played
I sat and wondered. Was this the
little, crude, uniformed girl used to
know-this genius speaking through
music to the world?
She made US sigh, she made us
exult. she made us triumph. With
her we wept, with her we despaired.

Wells Much in Vogue

Wells are used not only for wear as
a practical article, but also for the
decoration of the hat. The position
and Amazon types of hats are par
ticularly adapted to the wearing or
the flowing veil, both in the short
and In the long draped effects, and
circular wells arc adapted to the
seilors. A new idea is the use of a
six-inch velvet ribbon border attached
to a white mesh veil.
Allover scrolls and single motifs
continue in vogue. The beauty of
many smart styles Is enhanced by
the use of chenille or velvet spots.
Another new idea is the use of a fur
border outlined with q delicate thread
of metal. Chiffon wells are worn with
small turbans, being attached in the
back so as to fall in long. graceful
folds.

Do you remember the great old
song which begins, Seated one day
at the organ?" Do you recall the
line, land my fingers wandered idly
over the noisy keys2" And do you
recollect that the musician played
wond'rous chord which filled his soul
with celestial harmonies that ever
after haunted him-but which he was
never able to reproduce? Poor mu-
sician, he may not be able to play
that heavenly melody-but she can
wake the strings at will on harp--or
heart.
But, then, her fingers do not
wander idly" What they touch
must respond to the melody In her
heart. For she plays the song of
songs-the melody that the thrush
pipes to his mate In the springtime,
and true lovers all over the world
sing to each other every day In the
year. 1t is the rhapsody of love!

Cold Cream for the Complexion

Dear Margery Doom:
AS you have helped others, will
greatly appreciate your advise on this
question: Does a regular use of cold
cream produce hair? l have a most
healthy complexion and would not
care TO have it injured. Advice on
this question would greatly appre-
ciate A CONSTANT READER.
Cold cream is not injurious to the
complexion If properly used. It should
be used as a cleansing cream and
when rubbed into the skin. should be
wiped off again with soft cloth. In
some cases when cold cream is used
it is necessary to use an astringent
to close the pores.

Dear Miss Doom

Dear Miss Doom:
Is there any remedy for excessive
perspiration? / ruin all my dresses
By perspiration stains and | would
like to know if there is anything that
is harmless and will cure this
WORRIED.
A normal flow of perspiration is
to be desired, since it is a first aid
to a clear. fresh skin. A powder
which is slightly astringent, and so
to be recommended for excessive
perspiration, is made from two
drains each of oxide of zinc and
boraeic acid, four drains of lyco-
podinm powder, one ounce of starch
and half an ounce of powdered orris
root. These must be mixed, and
then sifted many times to mfngle
thoroughly. Apply with a big puff,
busting quickly.
Sponging thoroughly with cold
water after bathing will close tl,s
pores quickly and tend to moderate
the flow of perspiration.
