beaux whom they tolerate for the
sake OF their usefulness. These
men have TO pay their way. ~ they
60 to theaters. and dances, and
restaurants.
II a girl always proposes going
to some place OF amusement when
YOU call, and IL she always wants
to 60 to see the highest-priced show
In town. and orders the most ex-
pensive dish on the menu, be sure
you are merely a convenience and
not a heart necessity. She will
either say mo" whom you pop the
question, or II she marriss you. II
will be because she regards you rs
good meal ticket, She really
doesn't love you.
But II, when you call. girl wants
to stay home. and prefers the drop
light in the living room to the
movies. you may have her for the
taking. She's In love with you for
yourself alone. Also when q girl
begins to make a man eeconomize
on the money he spends on her. and
urges him to cut out the candy and
lop of the flowers, it's sure and
fndelible sign that she In beginning
to regard his income as her own
| and wants to take care OF 1t.
The fourth sign of love Is when q
girl asks man to tell her the STORY
Of his life. and encores the narrative
Of the things he used to do when
he was a small boy. and listens with
an enraptured expression on her
| face while he goes into the details
OF all that he said and did at the
ONCE that day.
It takes a deep and abiding az
fection, that Is all-wool and a yard
wide. and fool-proof. to stand for
personal "reminiscences and any
man can safely ask a girl to name
the day who can listen to him mono-
logue about himself through a whole
evening. without yawning in his
face.
The fifth sign that a woman gives
of being In love, Is when she be-
gins to try to take care of a man
and to mother him. Is your AmaryIlis
! worried about you smoking toe
many cigarettes. and does she urge
! you to wear rubbers when II rains,
and Is she afraid that you will get
! lost going home? BY this token
shall you know that she Is longing
and tell you how bad everything
you like is for your digestion.
Go to 1t, son. She's ready to weep
on the second button Of your waist
coat while she tells you how ha-a-
a-py she is. O..
The final proof that woman Is in
love, is when she becomes serious
and becomes suddenly pious. Per-
haps she has a premonition that
she'll need the consolation OF relig-
ion IL she marries you. Anyway. it's
a sure sign that never fails--that q
girl is in love when she takes to GO

! literature, and studying the cook
/ book.
Try these tests of love on your
Amaryllis. son. They never fail.

THE TEST OF LOVE.
nv DoRoTHY DIX.


A young man wants to know how
he can telr whether a girl is in love
with him OF not.
That's easy. for when a girl Is
really in love. she cannot dissembie
her feelings The signs Of love
break out on her like the measles. SO
that a blind man might read them as
he runs. OF course men are deceived
often about a woman's sentiments
toward them. but in such cases they
fool themselves. The woman Is In
capable Of doing It herself.
1t is a mans vanity that makes
him think that a woman Is In love
with him when she's not. just be-
! cause she says she is. He believes
what he desires to believe. II he
would apply these few acid tests to
any woman, and carefully note her
reaction to them. he would be able
/ to determine the exact state of her
heart, and take the temperature of
her feelings towards him.
First. take note. of the kind OF
WCASOihC chO BANoo soo 49, .
to see her. 1t must. indeed, be a
stupid man who cannot tell whether
! girl runs up the JOY flag at his ap-
proach. or merely hutters any sort
Of a rag OF bunting. OF course, a
beau is a beau in these times Of the
shortage of courting men, and IL q
girl Is to be popular she has to give
the glad hand. and put on that OH
be-joyful look every time anything
/ in trousers comes along.
But a man does not have to be a
Sherlock Holmes to. be able ITO de-
duce from her general conduct and
/ conversation. whether his coming
really does set the golden bells ring
ing for her, OF. whether she simply
endures him for the sake of having
a man hanging around.
He can tell 1t by the Frightening
/ of her face, by the warm gladness
about her lips, by the way. she hangs
on his words. And, likewise, he can
tell by the far-away look upon her
countenance. and the way she yawns
behind her hand and tells him that
she is so sorry, but mama has a
headache and she really must see
| those who also ran.
of being in love is when she begins
to cut a man out Of the herd. II.
when you go to see a girl she al
! ways has some other girl about, and
makes II a threesome instead of a
twosome, or IL she always proposes
going about in groups, there's moth
| ing doing for you, son. She's try
/ ing to get somebody to help out in
I entertaining you.
A woman, in love is the greatest
monopolist on earth. She's Jealous
| even of a mans mother, or sisters.
and she's not going to expose the
man she wants to the dangers of
| may make havoc of her plans. Also.
before she can lead a man up to
! the proposing point. she has to have
him solitary and alone, where no.
: body can ever answer when he calls
! for help.
| So observe whether your Amaryllis
.inveigles you of into lonely walks
] and says mot at home" to other WIS.,
, itors on the nights you call, or
whether she always wants to &c
with the crowd, and telephone over
/ to John and Mary to come ana
| make up a hand at bridge, and you
/ viii know whether she Is in love
with you for keeps, or Is merely
| marking time with you until the
right man comes along.
The third indication that a gir'
/ gives Of being in love, is when sht
begins to spare your pocketbook
Take note of whether you are the

What S in a Name?
GERALDINE.
By Mildred Marshall

Morse mythology is filled with
valiant names which are the fore
runners of many of our feminine
proper names in current use today.
Geraldine is one such and her his
tory dates back to the days when
valkyries drove their splendid
chariots over the fields of conflict
in the land of the midnight sun.
It means spear power" thus max
ing its fortunate possessor one of
the company of battle maids so
honored by those of Scandinavian
blood.
From Norway and Sweden, the
forerunner of Geraldine made its
appearance among the Anglo-Saxons
as st. Gerhold. which was straight
way changed to Gerald and because
of the sanity reputation of its first
bearer, the masculine name became
enormously popular in England,
where 1t is still a favorite in the
aristocratic class. "Morte o'Arthur
added to the vogue of Gerald since
Gareth, or Garret. knight Of the
Round Table, was said to be the
equivalent for Gerald. Some etymol'
ogists disagree with this conten'
tion, but in the main 1t is accepted
and gives to Gerald a romantic
flavor.
The first Geraldine was Lady
Elizabeth Fitzgerald, daughter OF
the famous Maurice Fitzgerald
whom Surrey made the heroine OF
his poetry under the title of Fair
Geraldine. The name won imme-
diate fame in the class of romance
and was straightway taken up by
all the fashionable damsels of that
day. Germany accepted 1t but
changed IL later to Gerhardine. II
also penetrated Italy where 1t be.
came Geralda. Both England and
America preserved 1t in it's original
form.
OF all the famous Geraldines, the
most noted of these times is the
prima donna, Geraldine Farrar
whose magic voice charms opera
lovers of the metropolis.
Geraldine's talismanic gem is the
i emerald which is said to give the
wearer such intuitive POWERS that
she may be able to foretell events
1t quickens the intelligence and
sharpens the wits, but Is an enemy
to passion. Wednesday is Geraldine's
lucky day and her lucky number
The hawthorne Is her flower.

THE FORUM

The Democrats are trying to get the
votes of the women by working on
their sympathy about the graves in
France. 1t seems to me the graves in
France are rather too sacred a subject
to make political capital out of. But
perhaps there would not be so many
graves in France had not President
Wilson and Secretary Baker sent all
the trained and seasoned troops Of the
southern states down on the Mexican
border and to guard the interned Ger
man prisoners, while they rushed our
boys of the north, unframed and I'M
seasoned over into France and to the
firing line. And it is a matter of
record that a number of northern
states whose loss in men to the indi-
vidual states was greater than the loss
in men to the whole eleven southern
states\ put together and President Will
son and Secretary Baker could have
been and should have been dealt with
according to strict military rules for
such a wanton sacrifice of human
lives. Is it any wonder the Democrats
are appealing to the women to vote
for the old southern confederacy, alias
Woodrow Wilson, alias James Cox?
who digs their graves?"
