And they always end up by thinking
they originated the idea.
The One Man.
THE same thing would hold good IN
matrimony Besides. many a man who
is really in love with a woman does
not ask her to marry him because he
thinks that she is above him in social
station. or accustomed to more lux
uries than he can give her.
In my own case, the one man that
I have met that 1 could have loved and
would have been glad to have married
was A poor chap. earning a small SAL
airy. and with a widowed mother and a
house full OF little brothers and sisters
dependent on him.
He was a frail. delicate fellow. with
small talent for business. but with the
most beautiful soul and the most brill
liant mind I have ever met.
There wasn't a taste or thought or
idea that we didn't have in common.
and I look back now upon my comrade-
ship with him as the most beautiful
episode Of my life I know that he was
to him, but he would not ask me to
marry him because he had nothing to
offer a woman but grinding poverty.
And 1 couldn't say to him, I've got
money. and strength. and health, and
III love you, and mother you, and
take your burden off your shoulders.
and you'll get we'll and be happy ever
after
NO. I couldn't say that because I
was young and foolish, and bound down
by tradition, and 1 let him go away
from me and die. That's why I'm an old
maid"

the starting point, would I at any

~ Asst and west and north and south
are terms expressing ideas Of d.
- rection based upon the rotation
Of the earth about a fixed axis II
we 10 toward one OF the poles or ends
Of the axis, we say we are going north,
and II we go toward the opposite pole
we call it going south
50 II we go toward the sunrise
we call the direction east, ana II
toward the sunset west In either
case we are travelling on the cir
conference Of a circle, and we carry
our reference points with US, 30 that
although, as we move over the curved
surface OF the earth, our actual dlrec-
ffon IN space IS continually changing,
II remains unchanged for us as long
~ we do not turn about in our course.
Consequently, in going eastward
around the earth you would at no
point be moving westward.
When you had reached a point dia-
metrically opposite to that from which
you started, your direction in space
would be exactly contrary TO what
II had been at the starting point, but
this would not affect your continued
eastward motion, for east and west
have nothing 70 do with absolute direc-
tion around the earth.
The universe knows neither east
nor west, nor north nor south. The
same fixed star may be in the east
in the evening. in the south at mid
night, and in the west in the morn
ing. according as the rotation Of the
Ia
unchanging points Of the compass"
into ever shifting positions
II, however, you should start TO
walk around the earth. going north
or south, on a meridian line. your di-
rectiOn would change when you passed
through either OF the poles. II you
started at the equator aand went north
you would begin to go south the in
slant you stepped across the north
pole, and no matter what You faced
when you were at the pole every direc-
tion on the earth would be south
As you stood on the pole east and
west would become for you nothing,
but mental conceptions OF a spinning
the spin Of the earth meant east. and
against II, west. BY watching the
motion Of sun. and stars, sailing IN
perpetual circles around you. you
would be able to tell which way the
spin went. And, to put yourself in
motion either west or east, would be
simply 70 twist round, one way or
the other, on your heel
Considering the heavens as the inner

lions OF directions to the face Of the
sky, The north point of the heavens
IS directly over the north pole Of the
earth, and from that point every d.
rection in the sky is south, just as
from the south pole every direction is
north.
The ideas OF east and west in the
heavens are similarly, based on the
rotation Of the earth around its axis.

the CLOSE fist Figure c is a good
example from the pen Of one who cut
the hair from a wOman's head to com
pensate for a months back rent It
shows a narrow spirit. a selfish desire
to accumulate money All three OF
these specimens are interesting studies.
Contrast them with Figure d. See
what a vast differnce there is in the
long, generous flowing terminals, wide
spaces between letters and the gener-
Gus size writing. We are best taught
by contrasts and this is a most inter
esting and instructive one
Just a few words before we close
this article, on one OF the most i'm
portant Psychological letters-the
capital m" It is important because
II can be made in so many different
ways. II tells of pride. independence.
pretension, imagination and many
other things A study or the special
plate printed herewith will prove in
structive and entertaining. We shall
have something more to say about this
all-impOrtant letter in subsequent ar
ticles. These letters are all clipped
from correspondence that has come to
the author covering a period Of many
years. Each one has special story
to tell. which will be taken up more
in detail later on.
In the other special plate you VIII
find presented specimens Of solid (con-
nected) words and letters. This Is
sign OF logic, reason and deduction.
Such people are always reasOners and
thinkers. are practical people who plan
out their methods or procedure and
generally adhere to their plans pretty
closely. Solid but disconnected words
tell Of the lOgician. Several words
written without raising the pen de-
notes extreme logical tendencies and
sometimes a good deal of executive
ability.
Words that have been broken apart
by raising the pen one or more times in
writing them tell US of intuition. Such
people are generally very sensitive,

Is it because they were bent on

stupid to know a good thing when they

II the fault OF social conditions that
never gave them their matrimonial
chance?
It is one OF life's great puzzles. and
in an attempt to solve it. Dorothy Dix
has asked a number Of charming old
maids why they never married
BY DOROTHY DIX.
-" HE reason that I am an old
maid" said the first woman,

vention debar a woman from picking

to pop the question I should now be a
nice old grandmother. knitting pink

spinster trying to fill in her life with
a vicarious interest in causes"
"Of course I had plenty OF chances
to marry. Every woman who isn't

she can get, but, as the children say,

men who proposed to me 1 wouldn't

I didn't have the courage to propose to
myself.
A Common Case.
Il think my case is a very common
one. There are many women like my
self who have a high ideal of what
marriage should mean. To them it
should he a real mating, a union OF
heart and soul. They are incapable of
marrying for a home, or support, or
for the privilege OF writing Mrs" be-
fore their names
These women would be glad enough
to marry IL the right man came along,
but when he doesn't they refuse to COM
promise on a makeshift They would
rather be old maids than make mock
cry of marriage. They would rather do
without love than to take lower
love.
Now. the maddening thing to those
OF us who belong to this class Of old
maids is that we do not go through life
searching for an impossible ideal of
man without ever finding him. The
tragedy lies in the fact that we gener-
ally do find him, but convention doesn't
allow US to grab him and run off home
with him and live happy ever after.
ION the contrary. we have to stand
helplessly by, feebly trying to wigwag
to him the glad news that we think
that he is it, and he sees us making
signs and passes at him, but doesn't
know the feminine cookbook well
enough to understand what our signals
mean. Or perhaps he is so blind that
he passes by without ever noticing US
at all
You may say that II a man were
in love with a woman he wouldn't wait
for her to pick him out. He would do
the picking himself Not at all. Only
men of great initiative ever think OF
things for themselves. Everything else
is suggested to them. Yet look how
they become over schemes
that are attractively presented to theml
