All of which is hard on women, because.
the feminine heart is still doing business al
the same old stand, in the same old way, and
Woman's talent is for loving, not liking, anyi
way. Her emotions are always either at tho
sizzling or the freezing point
How to change these comradely men intC5
lovers and husbands is the problem that con1
fronts thousands of young women. 1t is d
difficult task and one that each individual
woman must work out for herself; but perl
haps no better remedy for the general situd
alton can be suggested than to try the shocA
treatment
The trouble with a great many women
is that they let themselves become habit
to the men they love. If a woman knows
that the man on whom she has set her heard
depends on her for 7ympathy, she is always
there ready to hand him out the glad hand
or tears, according to his demand on herl
If she knows he depends on her for compan1
lonsh1p, she is ready to trot around the golf
links with him, no matter how she loatheS
it, or to automobile with him, though shd
quakes in terror every minute of the time; i
she lends listening ear while he dis1
courses on the grocery trade, or stocks, or
politics, whatever other subject he is ind
terested in, and about which she only cares
because he cares
If she knows he depends upon her for
comfort she will work her fingers to the
bone to give him the food he likes, and tS
his reading light just at the particular angle
that he prefers them.
And in time the man comes to take all
this devotion with the same calm acceptance
that he does the sunshine and the beauty of
nature, and the graciousness of life. The
woman does not exist as woman in his
consciousness, but simply as a thing that
gives SAVIOUR to life. He does not even rec
ogniZe how dear and precious woman is to-
him until she leaves the scene.
That is why many men who have been
Indifferent husbands are heart broken
widowers when their wives die. The measure
Of their loss is the measure of their love-
So l. would advise any woman who wanted
to win the modern man to first make herself
necessary to his happiness and comfort and
then to suddenly remove herself from his
vicinity.
Shut the door that has always been open
to him. - Take away from him the companions
ship upon which he leans, and if that does
not make him realize that his liking is low,
ing nothing will. '

The Worlds Highest Paid Woman Writer.
WINNING A HUSBAND
Copyright, 1920, by the Wheeler sy dictate, Inc)
YOUNG woman tells me that she is

a YOUNG woman tells me that she is
n in love tn man who likes her,
but is not in love with her, and
she wants to know how she can heat this
lukeWarm affection up to the boiling point
IL LOOKS as If it should be easy enough to
turn liking into love, but as a matter of
fact, it is more difficult to induce an old
acquaintance to look upon us in new light
IMAM 1t IS to lire the fancy of a stranger.
still, OF course, it can be done. Hearts are
won by patient siege, as we'll as by assault
and battery.
No one will deny that the difficulty that
thls young woman confronts is the principal
answer to the query: Why is there such
falling off in matrimony? 1t is because so
many men have substituted liking for love-
and women nowadays have too MANY men
friends and too few suitors
1t is the price that women are paving for
freedom. In the times of our grandmoth
when maiden never peeped her little head
out from under her chaperon's wing, and
when man had to file his declaration of
intentions, it was case of love or nothing.
There had to be quick heart action in
those days Of romance. There was no diIIy-
daily1ng and keeping charts of whether his
aILectlon. was subnormal or ran up to fever
neat A man who desired to enjoy the
pleasures of female society had to pull the
Romeo stuff, and qualify for the altar.
Far different is it in these emancipated
!Imes When men meet women on equal terms
~ CuoAAiG9S anu III society, when the two
sexes work and play side by side, and when
a man can have as much as he desires of
Woman's company without letting himself in
Tor becoming her meal ticket
Inc more the bars are broken down be-
tween the sexes, the fewer the wedding bells.
no man can be happy unless he has the un-
derstand1ng, the sympathy, the admiration
OF woman. He has got to have some
woman to whom he can tell things that he
would never have the nerve to tell another
man. He must have some woman to whom
ne can go in his hour of despair, when the
world has almost beaten him; who will cheer
and comfort him. And he must have some
woman who will encore his stories of his
triumph, and before whom he can flaunt his
2gotism unashamed.
And when the crly way to get this admir-
ing audience was to marry her, he bound
her to him with wedding ring. Now he
turns the trick with platonic 'iendship and
tells the woman she is good old scout in
stead of the angel Of his dreams. Also he
speaks of liking instead of loving.

AGAINST Germany

The French government is unalterably OPP
posed to the admission of Germany to the
League of Nations at this time, it was stated
at the French foreign office last Friday.
Some "drastic action" would be a conse-
tuence if the league voted to admit Germany,
it was intimated.
The foreign office said there had been
conversations with Great Britain the sub
ject, and that the British, who had been in
clined to favor German membership in the
league, now had accepted the French view
point allowing the matter to rest for the
present.

ANNIE
BY DR.. Frank Crane


She lived in the white house with green
shutters over on Locust street.
I didn't know Annie That is, not per
sonally. l knew people that knew her.
You know, there are folks with whom you
seem we'll acquainted, even intimate be-
cause the people you are with are always
taking about them
Annie was like that. It is as if she were
flower growing over in a neighbors gar
den; you know it is there, somewhere the
fragrance of it is borne in through the win
dow, but you cannot see it for the hedge.
There are people living with us all the
time we rarely or never see There are
those l love and others I detest, yet have
never clapped eyes on.
Whenever 1 could go over to Cousin
Georges house, or when his family drop
ped in on US, they Away mentioned Annie
Annie did so and so, Annie said this and
Annie liked that.
1t was as though Annie was sort of
ghost whose presence was constantly with
us.
We found ourselves wondering what An
ME would think, and doing things calculate
ing their effect upon her.
Life is strange thing, and one of the
strangest things about it is that there are
those who do not believe in spirits.
We are all spirits. We are all ubiquitous
No one is confined to his skin
My father has been dead thirty years, yet
every now and then he is by me and pushes
my mind.
The travelling man taking trip to Cali
fornia does not leave his wife at home. Her
body may be there, but her presence is with
him on the sleeper, in the hotel, on the
street.
This is not empty fancy There is a very
real and actual Something that influences the
mans actions, affects his feelings, alters his
n hot l. fIr hot
is She affects him more powerfully when her
body is absent than when it is at hand.
So when 1 say Annie is dead it means
something is gone out of my life.
Somehow the mysterious shade call
Death. that forever walks the days of
life, has brushed by me in the dark.
Annie was the kind of won an everybody
loved. I loved her myself. I don't know
why, except that loving her seemed to be
in the air.
I have been sad little all day. 1t is as
if an angel that had always stood by the al
ter were there no longer and her vacant
place disquiets me.
The world is bit colder. Earth is lit
tie more strange.
That Other World seems warmer and
nearer.
Annie was not young. Young people can
not pervade - wide area OF love as the
old. They are shut in by too many bars of
egotism.
The frictions of life, such as sickness, dis
appointment, loss and grief undo these bars
and let our souls out into the world.
Dear Anniei 7 have no right to sneak this
or you perhaps am stranger and an out
slider, and stand apart witnessing the sor-
row of your family and friends
But you were more to me than you knew
Maybe you do ,knoW-now. And so you will
understand if 7 came, when all have left the
cemetery an. I will not be noticed, and put
a little flower where you lie.
For I have seen the light in your window

Wv TtSEACRES of the science OF detec-

new scheme they have hit upon to
finger-print all babies. Just what it is they
hope to accomplish, unless it is to avoid
"mix-ups''-in which case, we in Atlanta,
are surely with them-they do not state;
but presumably the idea is to so tabulate
and classify every one at birth that, whether
they grow into rogues or pillars of society
in the future, there will be no hiding their
origin.
One must hesitate, however, to express
full-voiced approval of this plan. Think
you, for one moment, what it will mean, the
Illusions it will shatter, the regulations, the
dreams, the pretty fancies it will destroy.
What chance, for instance, will the Theda
Baras of tomorrow have to spread absorbing
tales of their nativity in the shadow OF the
pyramids and the Sphinx, when the tell
tale finger prints are waiting to confound
them back in Milwaukee, Wisconsin? What
will it profit professional Southerners to
cheer Dixie" in the face of finger-prints
filed in Bangor, Maine? Who will dare to
change his name to smythe when, above the
baby finger prints, appears the surname with
the tell-tale "i?" Will we not all be so red
tapped, rubber-stamped and card-indexed that
ina 3ination will be lost art and the gentle
WITNESSES of the press agents and the hero
wOrshipers die a-borning? Truly, it will be
A depressing world to live in when finger
prints no longer allow us to believe that our
favorite movie star is an exiled Russian
princess but is really Maggie Jones, of Jones'
Vile
Moreover. it strikes us that the Sherlock
Holmes of the finger-print bureau are several
centuries behind the tirpe4 they are spring
ing nothing new, for babies have been finger
printing themselves since the birth of Cain.
If they really desire to inaugurate their sys-
tenn they need not trouble about the finger
printing part at all, but simply attend to the
