The Diary of an Engaged Girl

Sitting there in Kensington Gardens,
in the half light that follows an
English sunset, I managed to get my
cousins whole wretched confession
from him, bit by bit. It was not
pretty story, and yet he seemed quite
hardened to anything and everything.
Said he was born to be bad, and dis
appointed. You see, when he saw his
old girl (she that had broken him up
here in England, or rather the one he
had decided would ruin his life, II he
married her), gone to the dogs, 1t made
him feel conscience-stricken, and as
though he were entirely to blame for
her collapse! explained to him that
this was all nonsense, for If girl is
SO weak-willed as to ruin her own life
and chances, Just because she happens
not to arouse love in the man she has
set her heart on, why it is her own
fault, nobody else's. II would be diff
ferent If Cecil's former sweetheart
were a poor, lonely waif or some such,
but such Is not the caes. Her parents
were and are in very good circumstan-
ces, and she has had good educa.
ton
think I finally made him see this
point, clearly, and then he seemed to
feel a bit better, though he kept re-
reating that that was not really what
had broken him up so. It was-well,
to be quite frank, it was myself! Cecil
falls in love hard, and takes his re-
verses hard. OF course this did not
make me feel very cheerful, as you
may imagine, for it's not the pleasant
est thing in the world to realize that
you have helped to ruin some fellow
h@l~ oil, ~ .
" fond Of, and all that. Still do think
1t rather weak of Cecil to tell me this,
instead Of keeping it to himself, and
fighting it out with himself, and by
himself! That's what do, and that's
what I believe in.
At the end Of several hours had
worked him round into an almost opti-
mistic frame of mind, and he had even
developed an appetite. That's always
a hopeful sign in the young! AS long
as one can still sit up and enjoy a
little nourishment one is not on the
fade-away list, not by JUG full.
I suggested a little supper, some
where, and then a hasty retreat to the
Maison. for knew that mother would
worry her head off until I returned.
Probably would think I was moon
struck and wandering about whisper
ing Jacks name to the winds, some
where Little does she suspect that
her daughter was busy giving first aid
to the lovelorn.
Cecil waved his hand tragically at
the mere mention of the word food
II does strike vulgar note to a tragic
one, I'll say, but I was firm. Pointed
out to him that I was cold and very
hungry and certainly entitled to have
n bite Of food even if he did not care
for same. (This was willy on my
part).
He arose with a weary air and
bowed his head and let me lead him to

Heart Problems

Desr Mrs. Thompson: I am a sen.

attended school social events and have
never cared about or taken girls any
where, but have given my time to
work and study, in which I have al
ways succeeded quite we'll
have a few girl classmates living
in my part of town. Would it be cor
rect to take my girl friends places? I
am told I am too serious and solemn
How can be more sociable and car

I do not like powder and paint girls,
as that Is not to be admired in a girl.
Probably If more girls remembered
this they would not call me silly and
SELFISH as one of your correspondents
did. A man has the right to choose
the kind Of girl he wants to work for
and spend his life with.
BOOK WORM.
1t Is not too late now to take your
girl friends places. 1t would be en-
tirely correct to do so. 1t agree with
you in your attitude toward girls. II
girls would only realize that the right
kind of man does not admire powder
and paint. they would not use it. But
they won't see the truth until 1t is too
late. They powder and paint and act
cheap until they marry some man who
likes that sort of thing. Then in a
few months they find themselves de-
serted because the husband has found
a new pretty face which is powdered
and painted and shows plainly that the
girl has no objections to going with
married man.

blame for 1.-THE street car ran over

stop" That's the way he tells his tale
And when the trouble is serious
enough we older people are much the
same. We must blame someone; and
so Englishmen want the kaiser brought
20 judgment for the war, while Ger
mans blame il all on Sir Edward Grey
of Edward VII or some other enviou5
or malicious person bent on their de-
struction. When no earthly culprit
can be found we seek a supernatural
agency and lay the blame on the devil:

time his pride
Had cast him out from heaven with all
his host of rebel angels
Or even God Himself may be blamed
and hundreds of fat books have been

But praise and blame play very little
part in the sober judgments of his
tory. The historical spirit is the at
titude of one who tries. not to COM
mend or condemn, but merely to un
derstand. When the passions of war
have died down we shall not ask who

Celatine Caused
Wall St. Explosion,
Declares Scheele
Chemist Analyzes
Fragments and Reports
Belief That Blasting
Jelly Was Responsible

Blasting gelatne caused the Wall
Street explosion, according to a report
made yesterday by PR. Walter 7.
Scheele, a noted chemist of Hacken-
sack, N. j., to Chief William j. Flynn,
OF the Department of Justice at Wash
ngton. About fifty pounds of the ex-
plosve was used the expert estimated.
DR.. Scheele based his conclusions on
the results of an extensive microscopic
examination of fragments of metal
found on the scene of the explosion. He
made an exhaustive study of the testi-
mony of witnesses as to the sound made
by the explosion, the color of the flame
an dsmoke resulting from it and the
effect upon survivors.
The chemists report to Chief Flynn
covers seventy typewriter pages, but
he gave out only the bare summary of
his findings. He said that he had, by a
process of elimination, reached the posi-
tive verdict that blasting gelttine was
the explosive used.
DR.. Scheele figured conspicuously as
an international character during the
early part of the World War, when he
was accused of being implicated in the
bombing of thirtyfour vessels of the
Allied trade and the conspiracy to sink
others. He was arrested in Havana IN
the spring Of 1918 after a wide search,
but after his return to this country
he greatly aided the United States in
the war. He gave material aid in un-
covering the German spy system in
America. He had turned over to the
government many of his inventions,
which proved of great value after this
country entered the war. The charges
against DR.. Scheeler were dropped.
The Scheele theory that blasting
gelatine was used in the Wall Street
explosion differs from the theories Of
fered BY other experts
