There's anotner kind of fascinating
woman that the world never hears
about. These are wives who have
neither beauty, wit nor any accom-
plishment to speak of. Such wives
bend all the energies of heart and soul
to make themselves pleasing to the
men who have led them to Hymen's al
tar. Their smiles, endearing words,
thoughtful acts, which lead to his com
fort and pleasure, are all for himX
They do not care for or want the ad-
miration of the outside world OF men.
Harmless flirtations or platonic friend
ships make no appeal to them. They
are wrapped up in the love of home
and the man with whom it is shared.
His smile or word of praise makes
their sunshine, his want of apprecia-
tiOn their gloom. Such q husband
never hears the outside world say
"He has fascinating wife," Every
woman is fascinating in her own way.
Some shine in public to be ad-
mired by many; others light is only
for those in home, dear home. When
you see a handsome, brilliant man,
united to plain, diffident wife, you
shouldn't wonder what he could pos
Sibly find to like about her. If you
were to ask him, he would tell you:
"She is a home Queen-I am king of
her heart"

FASCINATING WIVES.

People think they are paying man
q compliment when they say of him !:
"He has won an exceedingly fascinat-
ing woman for wife," Nine men out
of ten are pleased to have their better
halves so described. To the tenth man,
the words "a fascinating wife" are
stab in a wound which will not heal.
These are the men who are welded to
women who are delightful companions
for acquaintances and friends, but
make no attempt to be pleasing to
their husbands in the home. Their
smiles are for the outside world, their
frowns and irritability for those about
their fireside. If such wives would
pay one-tenth of their attention to the
men who are entitled to whatever sun
shine they can radiate how different
life would be for such husbands. The
wife who is the life of party at din
ner or ball is often glum in her house
hold. She makes no attempt to use
the little feminine artifices to fas-
cinate her husband that she does to
attract and keep in with society men
in the ballroom who know only the gay
butterfly side of her existence.
The girl who has been foolishly
fiattered into the belief that she is a
beauty of unusual type, with mag
netic personality, carries that same
conviction into her welded life. 1t is
often a dangerous plaything at her
command. The fascinating woman
has craving to be admired, to be
more popular than the women about
her, to attract strangers and hold
friends The world is her playground.
Home is merely resting spot between
festivities.

scorn. His better principles are
trampled down. After the first false
step, it is easy to go the pace that
kills. With young girls many are the
causes which lead to their downfall.
In nine cases out of ten, it is an unfor-
tunate affair of misplaced love. The
cheap all-night dancing places have
much to answer for the open doorway
through which innocence passes and is
lost.
Wrong kinds of women companions
are quite as great a menace to the
maidens as to the youths. Many peo-
pie enormously think that it is in the
company of male friend at res
taurant that a young girl is usually
induced to take her first glass of liq-
uor. But this is not so. Many girl
can trace the habit of drunkenness to
women friends who decoyed her into
taking the first social glass. Parents
and guardians believe their girl is safe
if she is calling upon young woman
friend. This friend is generally lit
tie older than the girl; much jollier
and gains an influence over the girl
who hungeSs for friendship, when this
woman sets forth cake and wine
in her own apartment, it is usually
easy for her to beat down a girls
scruples to partake of it. When wine
Is in, wit is out. She has acquired the
taste for it. Innocence quickly fades
before worldly experiences. If the girl
has been ambitious to shine, poverty
being her stumbling block, the lure of
fine clothes and easy life, has led to
her undoing. .'
The girls who have hardened to the
influence of home life, making con-
fidant of their mothers, even in the
smallest matters, always turn our well.
Mothers ward off alarms and stave off
companionships which would blast the
purity of, the girl. Two young girls
who had been chums at school recent
ly, met on Broadway, New York, one
afternoon. The hand of one was eag-
erly outstretched to the other in the
joy of recognition.

now," painted the other in burst OF
tears. II KNOW you are good girl
you made a confidant of your mother,
telling her everything, escaping the
rock on which stumbled and fell. l
concealed all possible from my mother.
Our paths, likings and souls lie wide
apart. God bless you! But hope we
will never meet again."
Only she who has sinned knows the
priceless value of virtue, the brightest
jewel in woman's crown of glory.

ALLIES RENEW
THEIR PLEDGE
None Will Make Separate Peace
Declares Gen. Maurice.
TO "MAKE GOOD JOB" OF WAR
Victory Brought Nearer BY Confer
ences At Rome and London,
Says Military Di-
rector. -

London.-The recent conferences in
Rome and London between Entente
civil and military leaders developed
the utmost harmony and determine
ton to push the war to conclusion
satisfactory to the Allies, according TO
the opinion expressed by Major-Gen-
eral F. B. Maurice, chief director OF
military operations at the War Office,
in discussing the latest events of the
war.
"Our enemies said General
Maurice, "are fond of stating in their
own press that France has tired of the
war, while limiting at separate peace
for Russia, but l can say confidently,
as a result of the return of the dele
gates from Rome and last weeks con-
ference in London with General
Nivelle, that these meetings were
much more important in bringing VIC
tory nearer than any recent military
events. The result Of these confer
ences showed the Allies heartily
agreed in determination not to ac-
cept an inconclusive peace, and that
they are as one in their determination
to make good job of it before they
are ready to discuss terms. 4
"In the purely military realm, our
raids continue with increasing success
and diminishing casualties to our at
tackers, who bring back as many pris.
oners as our total casualty list, thus
putting the enemy's dead and wounded
on the plus side of our ledger. 81,
"The enemy's offensive in Roumania
has been not only halted but pushed
back step. This result probably is
due to Russian reinforcements, but
weather conditions may also have had
a share in hating the Germans"
In connection with reports Of the
possibility of German attack on
Switzerland. General Maurice declared
that for such an operation the Germans
would be compelled to weaken their
other fronts, which could only be done
at grave risk

ADMIRAL DEWEY
LAID TO REST
Public Honors Seldom Equaled
Accorded Dead Hero.
SALUTE OF 10 GUNS FIRED
Representatives of Many Lands Join
Americans in Paying Last
Tribune to the Hero
Of Manila Bay

Washington.-Adm Dewey, the
hero of Manila Bay, was buried at
Arlington Saturday with public honors
seldom eQualed in the nations history.
After services in the rotunda Of the
Capitol the body was followed down
Pennsylvania avenue and across the
Potomac to its resting place by a
cortege including all the officials OF
the Federal Government, the diplo-
matte corps, ranking officers Of the
army and navy, many military and
naval bodies in uniform, committees
Of the House and Senate and repre-
sentatives of many patriotic societies
and other Organizations.
Flags on American public buildings,
forts and naval vessels throughout the
world were at half-mast, and at noon,
senior warships of the American Navy
everywhere fired a farewell salute of
10 minute guns.
During the services at the Capitol,
which were attended by President
Wilson and many other officials and
distinguished men and women, the
body rested on the same catafalQue
and at the same spot in the rotunda
where Lincoln, Garfield and Mckinley
lay in state. Chaplain Frazier,
Dewey's and the Olympia's chaplain at
Manila, oficiated
A brief ceremony at the Dewey resi-
dence, attended by near relatives, by
the President and Mrs. Wilson and by
few close friends, preceded the Capt.
tO1 Observances, and. in conformity to
the Admiraps expressed desire, the
Annapolis midshipmen were the only
military escort when the body was
taken from the home.
The larger military escort following
included the entire corps of midship-
men, the bluejackets of the battleship
New Hampshire, marines from Nor
folk and Philadelphia, artillerymen
from Fort Monroe and points along the
Potomac. and many other units. Ac-
companied by their officers on foot,
they marched in the inverse order of
their rank in special full-dress uni
form.
Behind the military in carriages was
the President, the Cabinet, the Chief
Justice and Associate Justices Of the
Supreme Court, the diplomatic corps
and the committees of Congress. The
Society of Manila Bay, made up of off,
GERS who were under fire with Dewey
at Manila, was given a special place
In the military section, but the COM
mittee of other patriotic societies and
miscellaneous organizations rode be-
hind the Government officials.
BY order OF President Wilson, all
executive departments were closed
throughout the day. All business
houses in Washington were closed
from 11.30 to 1890 o'clock.
Navy officers said that perhaps the
most unusual of all the honors paid
the dead hero was the salute of 10
guns fired at noon by American war
ships. 1t is the salute of the Secre-
tary of the Navy, and II guns is the
designated admiral's salute. The extra
honors, given under order Of Secre-
tary Daniels, was extended in recogni-
tion of Dewey's rank, unique in Ameri-
can history, as the Admiral of the
Navy.
