WIDOWS
BY DOROTHY DIX
The Worlds Highest Paid wo-
man Writer.
toopyrisht. 1919 Ths Wheeler sypdie,t.I

A bold. devil-may-care. foolhardy
bachelor in Middle West city has
issued invitations to 150LWidows to at
tend a party at which he will be the
one and only man.
Talk about your deeds Of deering-
do and your war cross heroes. Here
an ace for fair.
For he runs not one risk, but a
million, for the widow is protean.
She assumes a hundred types, each
with its particular battery of charms.
Consider the gathering at this party.
There will be. for instance. the jolly
widow.
Few women know how to laugh.
The woman who smiles is an angel,
or sardonic demon. but the woman
who laughs is lovable companion
who makes a man feel that she will
never have Mysteries when the cook
leaves, or be hard on her husband
when he stays out late.
Then there will be the lachrymose
widow. She possesses the invaluab BILE
accomplishment of weeping POLITICALLY.
and when a woman can cry without
getting a red nose. her dangerousness
is not to be estimated in mere words.
Then there will be the comfortable
widow. She owns her own home and
has a tiny little sum Of insurance
money. Besides which she under
stands how to give the sort Of a din
ner that a man likes and where to
put the droplight SO that 1t doesn't
shine in his eyes while he is smok-
ing. To perceive the art with which
she makes one comfy makes a man
feel suddenly as II he was an orphan
and homeless.
Then there will be the diplomatis
widow. who goes about the business
of husband hunting with true eff
cheney. To her man is simply an open
book. and she plays upon his weak
nesses as upon a harp with a thousan nd
strings. With her remarriage is mere
ly a matter of selecting the man. He
has no say about it. She is all things
to all men. That kind of a woman
can purr over any man until all he
wants to do is to curl up like a dog
on her doorstep and pray Heaven that
she will step on the small Of his back
and never take her foot off. And she
does. And doesn't
There will also be the giddy widow.

UNCLE WGGILY'S RED
MITTENS

Newspaper Syndicate.l

As Uncle wiggily was walking
| along to get Nurse Jane some pep
permints for making him some red
mittens. he met Billie. the Squirrel
Boy.
30 Uncle wiggily and Billie hur-
ried on together, and they were al
most at the hollow stump school,
when. all OF a sudden, they saw the
bad old fox on the path right in
front Of them.
"oh, no! This time I've caught
you!" barked the fox.
Billiers saw a little cave, or hole in
the side OF the hill, close to where
he and Uncle Wiggily were stand
Ing, and quickly he jumped in there
and pulled the bunny gentleman in
after him. The hole was too small
to let the fox get in, and he had to
stay outside.
But I'll stay out here until you
get tired of staying in there" said
the fox, as he stretched out in front
| OF the hole where the bunny and
squirrel were hiding. It'll stay here
and get you when you do come out!"
"oh. IL we only had something to
scare him away" whispered Billie
anything with which we could scare
the fox?"
Il have my new red mittens,"
said the bunny. But I fear they
will not scare him away"
Yes. they will"' quickly whis-
pered Billie. Let me take them"
So the bunny handed the squirrel
boy the new bright red mittens.
Reaching a little way out of tho
hole, Billie scooped up some snow
and with it quickly made the face
OF a snow man. He made a very
large mouth on the snow face, and
with the red mittens, which he
stuck on. Billie made a red tongu.
and red lips. Then the squirrel boy
held the snow face, with the grim
ming red mouth. out in front of the
fox and loudly cried:
Boo"
AS soon as the fox. who was half
asleep. saw the big. red mouth wide
open so close to him, he gave a
howl and cried:
! "Oh, WOW! Oh double wow! This
must be fireman after me, he's
so red! Oh. l didn't know a red
mouthed fireman was in the cave
with Uncle wiggily"
And off the fox ran. with his tail
between his legs. The red mittens
on the snow face had frightened him
away. Billie and the bunny came
out and squirrel boy got to
school just as the last bell was
, ringing. 80 he wasn't late at all.
Then Mr.. Longears bought Nurse
Jane the peppermint candy. took his
new red mittens back home with
him. and very glad he was that he
had them. So IL the baked apple
doesn't try to jump out of the rice
pudding and roll down the cellar
steps with the dusting brush, I'll
tell you next about Uncle wiggily
and Sammie's pockets.
