is admirable in its scope and wording.

DO YOU KNOW HER?

Her friends call her Ann Darl-
ing.
It is hard to describe her and
Just give the facts without sound
ing mean and malicious.
Yet there is nothing in Ann
Darling to arouse ones meanness.
Let US see!
All the first years of her life she
lived somewhere in the Middle
West. Her husband, Davey, knew
more about a fine horse than any
one in the town.
His great winner was Torrent.
He always gave a fine dinner on
Torrents birthday, and at dessert
Torrent was led into the dining
room, right over the polished
floors, and everyone drank to his
health-standing-from a big gold
loving cup.
Poor Davey Died.
One night late Davey drove his
sixty-horsepower Rolls Royce into
a telegraph pole and was killed.
That was the end Of him.
Soon after she was married, Ann
began to grow plump.
Then she grew fat.
Finally she was huge.
She said that on the morning Of
her wedding, Davey came into her
house and up the stairs till he
found her, and he said to her:
"By God-Ann, you're the pref
tiest girl I've ever seen in my life"
BY looking one can see traces
Of all that.
Her little eyes are buried deep
in her face like buttons in an up
holstered cushion. The skin Of
her eyeliGs is tired and dropping
and with q pallid color because she
drinks too much and yet
there is so much good nature in
her expression.
Her nose Is tiny, too. One rec
ognizes il to be the nose Of pref
ty woman. II has q petit air de
eotillonl"
Il iS eoquettish!
Her mouth underneath this
hghthearted nose is large. and the
lower jaw IL rather undershot.
Good Nalured and Gsnerous.
But this does not i've her the

player. That was another thing
that made it pleasant.
In the autumn he went away. He
said he had some other VISITS to
make.
He wrote her once or twice, and
Ann answered him on verv small
lilac note paper with her crest at
the top of the page.
She wrote charming notes in a
small pretty writing.
She had learned the writing in
school.
Then they didn't communicate
any more for q long time.
Since the war Ann can't 90 back
to the Riviera. Instead she has
an apartment at a fashionable
hotel.
You see her any day in the cor
ridor there.
Her Full Life.
She has quite a full life. She
has a massage every day
and she goes to be ROLLED" every
day. Rolled between rolling pins
in a kind Of barrel.
She always thinks she is getting
thin. But her natural energy runs
into fat-making faster than she
can prevent it.
VI course, she works for the al
She is always working for some
league or fund or society,"
And then she has met the count
again! He came up to her In the
corridor of the hotel and they
were both so pleased to see each
other.
So he Dces out to dinner with her
often in other hotels-and they go
to the theater together. $50 it
makes it awfully pleasant" she
says.
Ann Darling gets a sense Of Sc
curity from his company-so why
shouldn't she have it!
And he gets a sense Of security
from hers-also. Thew are both
satisfied with that.
Do you know Ann Darllng7
II you do-why don't you tell
her that there are a whole lot Of
more amusing and more worth
while things TO do than what she
does7
Or do you think It's too late for
her TO change? Is really too
late for her to get INTERESTED

Great issues met and won the worlds regard

And washed by blood streams flowing from thy sons
And with the Of guns

OF course, her hair is dved a

with different kinds Of curls and
things which she pins on with dia-

Her hats are always like stiff

shops that these make her look

In the spring she would go back
to Paris and get a heap Of new
clothes. She didn't know many
people in Paris besides the dress
makers. II she met anyone from
home sometimes she was glad,
and sometimes she pretended to
herself that it was a bore always
running into people one KNOWS"
Usually in the summer she
would be back among the people
she knew-wearing her new cloth
ing and telling stories about Eu-
rope.
She somehow managed to give
the effect Of a rich, varied and
rather wicked career in Europe!
Sometimes-to be sure-she
would be picked out in the corri-
dor of some hotel-by an acute
Frenchman or Italian.
And he would soon become quite
friendly. She would ask him to
dine often and motor him about.
Sometimes it happened that she
gave him little presents.
It would all be very simple and
innocent. At least she was really
quite innocent about it-and then
her fat was like a rampant pro-
tecting her.
She had had several little friend
ships of this kind. But they never
lasted long and the foreigner" u.s.
ually melted away quite soon.
But once he turned up in her
town in the summer.
Her Foreigner.
That made quite a stir. He Wis
tied her. He was tall and quite
good looking, and had charming
manners. He did not look-es-
pecially-"foreign."
Hardly anyone knew his name.
Ann called him "Count" and intro
duced him as "the count"-and
everyone spoke Of him as "Ann's
Count"
He was very pleasant and COM
panionable. and ate and drank and
motored out to the country club
and watched the gRmes-aD1 did
everything Ann did.
He stayed all summer.
No one ever got to know him

neither did Ann yet to know him
