The business world Ia brand new place

alien creature IN the world OF men and
she has TO steer careful course he

Tho two biggest "donts' for tho bust
ness woman are rather contradictory
affairs hut they can easily he recon

middle course. FIRST let us define our
don'ts and then we can easily enough
figure out that middle course.
Don't as you valuo your own woman

she Is not hard. nor strident. nor mas
culine. And as a very great compliment
she took a mans surprised ejaculation:
You talk Just like a woman!' Her reply
showed her sane normal sense OF proper

There il the first great don't When
you 20 to business don't forget that you
are woman.
And the next great don't lies st the
opposite extreme OF the scale. Don't
force upon all the men with whom you
deal the consciousness that you are-fem-
inine, "the female of the species"
In other words. you have TO think and
feel and act and do according 20 your
natural feminine equipment. but YOU do
have to force on men the consciousness
that you are a sex creature.
Your mental equipment Is feminine.
And in the business world you are deal

But the feminine emotional equipment
has no place in the world OF business.
Don't trado on your sex. Don't exepect

sake. Answer what the best way ts so
that no one should feel sore.
THE PUZZLED GIRL.
The question you ask comes TO me
very frequently. and / am increasingly
surprised that II should seem like a
problem TO anyone. The bride has the
privilege Of choosing her maid OF honor.
and the groom always selects his best
man. Frequently II happens that the best
man is married and that his wife Is
merely a guest at the wedding. This is
quite proper and II you apply the situa-
tion TO your own case you will see clearly
that there Is no reason why your finance
should not be best man al the wedding.
whoever, the maid OF honor Is.

.SeVem Worries
to Women

Not half the horrors that women sup
pose are going to happen to them ever
do happen. Yet it is in the nature OF the
gentle sex TO expect and look out for
them; to anticipate what fate may never
send In the form that women nurture 1t,
too, is so nebulous, so vague, so terrify-
ing because so scantily defined, as to be
absolutely possessiye. 1t takes horrible
hold OF the imagination, and works upon
the mind like subtle poison.
The chief fears to which women are
prone have been numbered as seven, and
the two greatest are said. on good author
ity, TO be. first 'the fear of being an old
maid" and secondly, the Of growing
old"
The others are fear OF losing a hus-
bands love. of accidents. of lose OF
money. of loss of friends and of the
future generally.
The third fear is a very potent one. II
is the fear OF losing a husbands love.
Tradition teaches women that men soon
tire of their wives. and that when the
bloom of woman's youth has worn away,
the love of man goes with Il.
The thrill of alarm is to some curiously
constituted natures a pleasant one; upon
no other hypothesis can one account for
the states OF wild anguish into which
so many women work themselves when,
| delayed by some quite trivial occurrence
the husband or son does not come home
at the usual hour. As the little wife sits
and waits at home for her better-half
she sees him I'm her minds eye in street
accidents OF various awful kinds; herself
| in widows weeds, the funeral. the break
ing up of the little home; her own ava
lanche OF grief sweeping her into an
early tomb.
| Or. II II is not her husband who is the
hero OF her morbid visions, II is her baby
or her growing brood OF children who
may be killed before her eyes. or wher
they are old enough to marry, may
choose some one she does not like. The
last situation is about the most absurC
OF the whole seven, but II Is. neverthe
less, a fear that haunts hundreds OF gooC
mothers.

vanishing, and herself reduced TO pen

Another woman will fear the loss o

THE BROADWAY BELLIES
COMPANY.


COMPANY.
The Attraction at the Star Theatre
Next Week.
"The Broadway Bellies" which will
appear at the Star the week of May
Z, is under the personal management
of Joe Oppenheimer, who has the
honor of being the oldest producing
burlesque manager in the United
States. Joe owes his success to keep
ing faith with the public and he as
serts that no manager can fool the
public more than once. He has made
it practice to keep faith with his
performers as we'll as with the public,
therefore he has been able to secure
the cream of the burlesque world this
season and promises to give a real
classy burlesque show, and what Joe
promises he will do. He has secured
the services of that popular producer
and playwright, Joe Wilton, and be-
tween the two the public can rely on
getting the very best, as they are
both past masters at the game, and
lovers of this type of entertainment
will surely derive the benefit of the
two Joes' experience.

COMMUNITY CHRISTMAS.

The village improvement society's first
community Christmas tree celebration
Sunday was a decided success. The old
English custom of singing carols on the
streets was carried out for the first time
in BluehilI. A chorus Of twenty or more
young people drove about and sang The
carols, "God Rest Ye, Merrie Gentlemen, ("
ssOh. Little Town OF Bethlehem" and
s'Uh! Christmas is q jolly Time" to
nearly dozen invaIids and s-shut-ins,"
and felt we'll repaid by the appreciative
way they were received.
Many houses along the route were
illuminated. and the candles in some OF
the windows added q quaint, old-time
aspect. When the party returned to the
hall, large company had gathered, and
about the brightly-lighted tree on the
grounds, the old hymn, "Joy to the World
was sung, a short address given, and the
carols sung again.
At the service following, in the hall, the
program as published last week vas car
ried out. A large audience was present.
The hall was simply decorated with green
at the back Of the stage, and q brilliant
star high in the centre.
The society is greatly indebted to Miss
Bostelmann for her kindness in writing
the music for the carols and teaching it to
the young people. The officers of the So
ciety heartily thank each and every one
who contributed to the success OF this first
community Christmas tree.
