From the island Of Jamaica comes

Bananas are the most important
product of the West Indies, and the

The Woman Whom Everybody Likes
Bp
ELLEN ADAIR

The desire to be popular is an Instinct
deeply rooted in the heart of the average
woman. or course. there are exceptions
Sc the rule A certain type Of foolish
woman considers It rather an honor to be
disilked by her own sex. She considers
that such dislike is founded on jealousy.
and that jealousy on the part OF other
women towards herself is the highest trib-
ute TO her own powers Of fascination and
general charm Her ambition is to gain
great popularity with the men and let
the women hate her as much as possible
This is exceedingly foolish and ill-ad-
vised, as sooner or later she will find out
For no woman can afford to do without
the friendship of her own sex. Social
neglect will follow, and she will find too
late that partlsanship with other women
is indispensable to a certain measure of
social success.
The woman who wishes to be truly pop
uiar will wisely determine to make her
self liked by both men and women. 1t
isn't so hard to make oneself liked II only
the right way is taken. And it Is SO glo-
riously worth while, too. For popularity
brings a glow of satisfaction with 1t that
is very delightful and pleasing. 1 refer
TO the real popularity and not to its tran
sient and shallow counterfeit. The liking
and the friendship created must be
Founded on rock. or It will not be of
long duration.
The basic quality on which popularity
is built is kindliness towards the feelings
OF others.
The woman who has very kindly heart
and a ready sympathy for everybody with
whom she comes in contact has solved the
hardest part OF the problem of popularity.
and indeed has the root of the matter
In her. For kindners and sympathy are
essentials to popularity.
Assume q virtue II you have 1t not"
goes the old saying. But such assump-
tion deceives nobody. the outward and
visible signs of sympathetic disposition
can be assumed. but unless the real feel
ing is behind them, people will soon de-
tect the lack, no matter how gushing and
how generous the popularity-seeker may
be. And so the woman who asplres to
popularity must endeavor to make the
virtue of sympathy a real part of her
self. She must literally feel sorry for
the sufferings of others, and what IS
sometimes harder, she must rejoice with
their joys.
Her reward will come to her, not only
in the liking of everybody with whom
she comes in contact, but in a new

afternoon Gowns

have been spending such a quiet time
lately, refusing all invitations and every
thing nice, for 1 have had grip and
have been in bed for quite while.
Really, grip is a most depressing sort
of thing. 1t makes one feel hundred
years old and utterly tired Of life.
Dorothy, you really must brighten up
a bit" said mamma in her brisk, fresh
air-and-cold -breezes sort Of way. "You
are the most depressed thing rye seen in
a long while"
"I can't help IT," said. GRIP takes
all the ambition and the interest out of
life."
That very afternoon I had a delightful
surprise. Quite a number of my gifl
friends came trooping in to see me, laden
with flowers and candy and all sorts of
things. 1t was a regular surprise party.
They stayed all afternoon, and we had
such glorious talk. So many things had
happened since the grip had gripped
me, and did love hearing all the news.
Two of the girls wore heavy FUR coats,
and MS my room was rather warm they
removed them. Their dresses were the
prettiest looking things. The first one I
must mention was Alice Smiths. 1t was
of Powered pale green crepe de chine,
and had such a quaint, old-fashioned look,
as 80 many of the new gowns have just
now. But 1t suited Alice to perfection.
The skirt was, needless to say, very full,
and was gathered into narrow leather

| broadened outlook and interest in life
For the popular woman has learned to
study human nature in its varying
phases. than which there is no more
interesting hobby under the sun.
The superior" womeh and the bSase
woman will never be popular 1t is small
recommendation to go about the world
with ones nose In the air, and ones ell
bows out sharply, ready to jostle the
feelings of others at every turn. An as
| sumption of Indifference to the things
about you Is not an indication of intel
ligence. Upon the contrary, intelligent
people are those who are wide-awake,
enthusiastic and eager for life They
are interested in everything, down to the
little trifes and happenings OF daily life.
To take lively interest in people and
their affairs does not by any means imply
a gossiping or a pryins disposition. The
gossip is the person who unearths skele-
tons from the cupboaiu for the sole pur-
pose of parading them around the neigh
borhood. But the popular person gains
her popularity by never repeating an
unlsind or uncharitable story. She is u
model of discretion.
The very busy woman has harder
time to gain popularity than the woman
of leisure. For popularity literally takes
time. One must listen patiently to others
without cutting them short or interrupt
ing, and one must show no boredom
whatever.
1t is easier in one sense for woman
to gain popularity with men than with
other women. Less qualifications are re-
quired. The pretty woman who has an
outwardly attractive appearance and a
pleasing manner will acquire popularity
with men easily. But to be popular with
other women she must call more quail
tiles. more forces. more energies into
play. Women are infinitely more critical
of women than are men. We all ad-
NIT that. But the woman who wishes
to be truly popular, term which implies
the liking and the commendation of other
women, must be sympathetic, kindly,
charitable. intelligent enough to be anus
ing and interesting, and must not be a
mischief maker. She must be genuinely
interested in all their little affairs, and
US VI ALiSli lSelH5S'
Above all. she must not faunt her mas
culine conquests in their faces.
The art of popularity can be culti-
waited. and for every woman under the
sun 1t is worth while. for 1t brings a
sense of peace and harmony into ones
life, and to know that one is truly liked
by ones neighbors makes this old world
turn merrily and brightly.
