An interesting incident Of the late sub
marine pcstilcnce Is related by inc SKIP
pcr of a Dutch schooner, that recently
reached an American port for the nrsl
time in three years.
SAYS the skipper. in describing his
meeting with a flock Of the undersea
boats:
"Thcy came UP out Of the sea. like
school of tin whales and their eyes be-
gan TO blink on all quarters, because II
was in the middle Of the night ana
cloudy" remarked the captain,
When asked just how many there were
the doughty mariner replied:
Well. ! did not exactly count them
but | am willing to take an anidari!
that ] saw without their starboard
lights; 3 without larboard lights: and )
had starboard lights: 2 had larboard
lights: had both Starboard and Jar
board lights Then there were 3 that
had neither starboard or larooard
lights"
Now you see according To the Skipper
swort statement there might have been
Is submarines.
However. n phleGmatic cabin boy who
had both his Starboard and larboard eyes
open. was heard to remark that while
the "old Man" was correct in his asser-
ton, il would be better 10 salt down the
figures to the minimum OF posslbilltles.
Now the puzzling proposition is: What

Sayings of Mrs. Solomon
Being the Confessions the Seven Hndredh Wife Concerning thu
Inconsistencies of Man in Love-
| - BY HELEN ROWLAND
Copyright 1919. by the Press Publishing Co. THE New

Ny daughter, who is so inconsistent.
who is so astonishing. who IS so con-
trary as a man in love?
Behold when Ire saith nothing he
meaneth exceeding much.
Yet, when he talkcth much Eush- per
adventure, he meancth nothing.
When thou art cruel to him no Is
humber than q stage footman.
But when thou are overland to him
he Is colder than a New York spring
and moro coy than a park squirrel
So long as he believeth thee to be toy
ing with him he pursueth thee boldly
and tmploreth thee to marry him.
But the moment he suspecteth thee
Of desiring to marry him he barrIcadeth
himself behind a trench OF reserve and
a curtain OF caution.
He Is so impregnable!
He forgiYeth thy most glaring faults
magnanimously and is blind to all they
real defects.
Yet he will cover thee with scorn and
contumely at the commission of soma
chance faux pas and quarrel with thect
bitterly over the way In which thou
handlest a tennis racket playest thy
hand at bridge or powderest thy nose in
company.
Should thou commit a murder or rob
a bank, he would stand stanchly by thee
unto the bitter end
Yet will he threaten to leave thee for
ever because thou laughest at him at
the wrong moment or pcrmitest the tea
to grow cold or wearest a gown quar-
ter Of an inch lower than his ideals
He calleth always at the unexpected
moment and is astonished that thou art
not arrayed and overtoyed at his COM
NJ.
Yet when hou arc adorned and curled

and powdered and pcrfumed and waiting,
he summoneth thee over the telephone at
the last moment to say that nc is delay
ed at the office" and NUT break his ap-
pointment with thee.
When thou speakest seriously he kiss
eth thee upon the. chin and answereth
in baby talk. saying:
Does II hoZZcr its head about 20
naughty League of Nations"
But when thou babblcst nonsense for
his amusement. he takcth thee seriously
and Is exceeding shocked.
He callGth thee his Guiding Star"
and assureth thee that thou art the One
Wise and Infallible Woman in all the
world
Yet in the next moment he pooh -poocth
thine OPINIONS, until thou feclest like
unto n hahc with only one brain cell or
candidate for the Home Of the Feeble
Minded"
He is filled with bitterness and jeal-
ousy toward the chance stranger who
Elanccth ut thee; ect is more cordial
than wine agent toward his one and
only rival.
He admircth thy foot and the shane OF
thy nose and all thy foolinSh little ways
Yet the books which thou rcadcst are
always "pirilc." the plays which thou
likest are always trash" and not ono
OF thy friends is worthy of thee"
Verify. verify. in all those things
which matter not and do not concern his
happiness he is more tyrannical than n
spoiled baby.
Yet in all matters Of great imnort he
/ layeth himself down. sacrihcial mar
tyr. on the altar OF thy whims!
And 10 nc goeth all through his life
wondering why no woman understand
eth" him! Sclah.
