BEAUTY ALWAYS
BOWS TO BRAINS
Pretty Girl Has Keen Rival in
Person of Her Clever
Friend

Jack Smith doesn't care what a
girl has in her head, provided she has
pretty face outside it" said my young
friend Mary to me petulantly. He
and the men in his set like to be seen
out with pretty girls and however much
they like clever one, they won't invite
her to any of their club dances unless
she is a good-looker too"
My feminine impulse was to feel in
dignant at Jack and his low standard
at just that juncture. And then | re-
membered few simple biological facts.
Nature meant the masculine half of
creation to furnish the race with power
and strength and the fighting qualities
And in her scheme of things the femi-
nine was intended to stand for sweet
ness and beauty and dependence and
the home-making qualities.
Modern society has made this clear
demarcation impossible. Woman goes
out into the world and fights, and so
inevitably cultivates powers and re-
sistances that approach the masculine.
She needs them for modern social con-
ditions.
But when man admires mere cling

The mother flushed. II beg your
pardon" she murmured. That was

"Oh, well, never mind" the girl
laughed again, this time more kindly.

straighten out some fuss about classes,
and now I have an errand to attend
to downtown, and 1 must allow time
to walk a part of the way back.
Henry insists that ! ought to do
this, for he is afraid I don't get enough
exercise and fresh air. So l had to
rush home to leave my books and pa
pers, and now 1 must hurry right off
again.
IT see," Myra rejoined. "Get as
much fresh air as you can, dear"
Grace hesitated for a second and
glanced at her mothers face.
You look as if some fresh air
might do you good, too" she re-
marked. why don't you go out also?"
I'm too tired" Myra replied.
Grace Is Unsympathetic
AS you please. the girl said,
lightly. "Good-by! I'll be back in
time for dinner"
She did not urge her parent to go
out. That was not her way. Myra,
remembering this now. wondered if
she had spoiled her child and hus-
band.
Then she dismissed the thought as
disloyal. Were they not both work
ing as hard in their way as she was
in hers? And was it not perfectly
natural that just now Grace's thoughts
the man she loved? Was not that al
ways the way with youth and love?
The afternoon drew to its close, and
still Myra Webb sat still, thinking.
She had not sat idle and silent like
this in two years-perhaps never be-
fore since she was grown. But she
did not appreciate this fact now.
1t was dusk when Grace returned.
She had met her father outside the
front door and they entered the living
room together.
Myra started to her feet. st did
not know it was so late!" she ex-
claimed, confusedly. "I must see If
Lizzie has dinner ready. 1t is five
minutes past the hour now"
Horace smiled as she left the room.
Dinner was, as usual, good and we'll

but moment when Myra uttered a
smothered exclamation.
Oh she murmured, u have on

CHAPTER l.


Copyright, 1916, Star Company
Myra Webb sat by the window in
the livingroom, gazing out into Morn
ingside Park. She had tried to work
this afternoon, but somehow could not
In spite of her sleepless night, she
had managed to steady her nerves
enough to do some copying this morn
ing. But all the time she had been
forcing away from her thoughts the
recollection of what Horace had told
her last night.
She had always imagined that if
the time ever came when his affairs
would be prosperous she would re-
joice. Now she could not make her.
self believe what he had said. And
yet her reason told her 1t was true
She had not eaten any luncheon
She had told Lizzie not to worry when
the maid feared she was not well.
Il am we'll" she said, only a little
weary"
Then when she found that she could
not concentrate her mind enough to
work, she had come off here into the
liVingroOm and sat down in this big
chair, and had let her thoughts wan
der where they would. And over and
over she found herself saying to her
self that she was tired-dead tired!
AS she repeated the words they
seemed to have a sinister significance.
Dead tired-yes, tired enough to die!
Perhaps reaction had brought about
this state of feeling, she muSed. At
last she had time to be still and think.
Time to think of all she had tried to
do these past two years. What had
she done, after all?
She had accomplished a good deal.
and yet now that she reviewed it 1t did
not seem to be worth while. What
was the use of it all? A dull gray
existence stretched out before her,
with not thrill nor heart-happiness
in it.
That Awful Word
If Horace and Grace had understood
it might all be different now. But
they did not understand. If they only
understood, if they would only tell
her so, life might be full and rich.
But they did not know that she
was hungry for their approval. She,
herself, had not known how hungry
she was until now that she had time
to stop and think.
Was it only last evening that Horace
had informed her that his business
was saved, adding briefly, After this
things will be easier for us; I will go
into further particulars when I have
more time"
That was all. Not a word of her
part in his fight with adversely Yet
1t had been for him and Grace that
she had fought by his side. Had he
ever cared that she was always there?
lad 1t meant anything to him and his
child?
The door opened and Grace came
IN. Her mother tried to smile a
greeting.
Well, daughter, dear" she said,
you are back from school, are YOU? %
Grace laughed, and there was a

The pretty girl cannot be clever un-

Oh, yes she can! Unless woman is
handicapped by a squint or hairlip,
or broken nose, or some definite ply
sical deformity, she can manage to
have a little of the beauty that is her
feminine heritage.
Almost no woman need have hide

diet and uses plenty of soap and water.
No woman need be fat and ungainly If
she can look a potato or a chocolate
"sundae" in the face and deny it then

No woman need have dull and star
