Dark green taffeta would become
you, no doubt, because you are a

they hold together-conserve. Comb
your hair with clean comb. Never
kiss a boy at night. Your path is,
indeed, rough one, if all the boys
are fighting over you. Your charm
must be irresistible. Your writing
is not good for a girl of your age,

Dear Miss Fairfax, Omaha Bee:

such good advice to so many others
that l have resolved to ask your
opinion Of my case,
l am young man, is years of

very attractive girl II years of age.

this dear girl. think she would be
very much pleased to be my future
wife, and T think she would be very
suitable for my wife. I have been
acquainted with her for the past
seven years
Her folks are well pleased with
me and my folks with her. Do you
think it is fitting and proper for us
to associate with each other?
Would 1t be Objectionable for us to
carry on a correspondence Please
answer this in the morning edition
of The Bee as soon as possible.
Anxiously awaiting a reply, / am,
sincerely yours, A LOVER.
You are what should call neg
ative character. with no decision
and no stability. The girl who mar
ries you will feel like swinging an

A Girls Opinion.

Dear Miss Fairfax, Omaha Bee:
I am young girl of IS, a steady
reader Of your advice to the Love-
Lorn." I wonder If all girls of all
classes realize the value of being a
straight, clean woman, not only to
the community, but to their own
selves in the near future. Don't a
man think more of a woman. wheth-
er married or single, if they allow
no privileges and be clean of thought
and mind? A fallen girl is no long
err the "only one" in the eyes of the
man who ruined her. What has
she gained? Nothing. What has
she lost? Her life, name and
friends. 1t is her own fault. When
the time comes the right man will
be waiting, so why be ruined?
Girls, don't crave for too good a
time; the slow but sure way is the
safest and best; am I right, Miss
Fairfax?
l think little powder is all a girl
needs, but no rouge; let nature tend
to your face. It's true a painted
doll' draws the mans attention
for a while, but the lower class of
men, who soon grow tired of you.
I'm sure all men would rather have

Heart Beats

BY A. K.
OF course we have
Nothing against
Unions and things
Which help the men
To get their
Rights,
But we are sure
That they have all
The rights they need
For they have
Taken all of ours.
But sometimes we think
They go too far,
Especially in composing rooms
Where walking
Delegates
Plain clothes men-
Spy on inoffensive
Creatures like us
Who have to 90
Out into the
Realm of ink
And forms and
Banks
To assist the
Makeup man in
Leaving out the
Unimportant
Overset
And sometimes we
Like to help him
Mix the type
But we dare not
Touch it
Nor pull out
Galley containing
Our own stories
Nor roll a table
Out of the way
Or do anything
That interests us
But the other day
We turned our ankle
And caught a table
To keep from falling
And the table moved
Which is against
The rules of the
Union
And one of those
denominations
Called a walking
Delegate r'something
Saw the whole
Performance
And now we learn
That we are taxed
Ten per cent
Of our salary
Or of what we earn
Or of what we get
Or some other
Common denominator"
For rolling a table
Which is against
The laws of the
Union.
It's a great life!

of feminine elegance is posed in a mas
sive red-backed chair. The scheme
is a new one, possessing a heightened
weight and richness. The tone Of the
black dress is superb, deftly broken
here and there with gray accents, and
into the reserved harmony the red
chair filings a plangent note. The other
figure pieces by Mr.. F. C. Frieseke, Mr..
Richard Z. Miller, Mr.. Ivan Olinsky and
Mr.. Charles w. Hawthorne, are in &C
customed keys and provide their ac-
customed strains of light, graceful
emotion. The strength of the show
lies otherwise in the sparkling boating
scene by Mr. W. Granville Smith, the
windy marine by Mr.. Paul Dougherty,
the vivid coast scene by Mr. Childe
Hassam and the landscapes by Mr..
Chauncey Ryder, Mr. Emil Carlson.
Mr. Willard Metcalf and Mr. j. Fran

lery there is group of about
dozen pictures by Miss Felcie Waldo
Howell, whose work we have repeat
eddy hailed with appreciation in the

hitherto to our knowledge had show
of her own. The venture she now
makes abundantly justifes itself. 1t

Briosco, and eliminate, in later pc
riod, in examples Of Alessandro Wit
toria and Bernini. The Berninis make
a striking pair, one Of them an heroic
bust Of Medicean Cardinal, the other
a relief Of woman. In the group of
terra cottas two masterpieces of real
ism by Luca della Robbia and Lorenzo
Vecchiotta command particular atton-
ton. There are, to be sure, scores of
objects in the exhibition which glor-
ously assert themselves. Yet it is
the magic of the collection as whole
that is above all things potent, the
spell of marbles and furniture, Of ma
Jolica and jewels, Of bronze plaquettcs
and figurines, which recalls US from
modern audacity and caprice to the
serenity Of immovablc standards. We
are withdrawn, too, for moment, from
the dominance Of the painting A few
pictures are shown, but they arc com
paratively unimportant beside the tri-
umphs Of sculpture and Of craftsman
ship in the metals. The genius of the
classical eras is made manifest in some
of its most tangible aspects. 1t wakes
an ancient glamour. And, by the same
token, it revives the appeal of ideals
Of beauty having an undying freshness.

Belgian comment cited above. The

confne it to payment in French
