 Every woman takes pride in the thought that she can hold her man against all corners. When he phi flanders with another. she cares not so much about what he has done, but because she does not like to have her pride humbled before other women who have passed their for tieth birthday.
 Ted was eternally doing that sort of thing. Peggy had her pride hurt until her love died and then she began to take notice, and as this Billy person was the biggest looking fish in the puddle, she knocked him, not because she cared for him but to show the gallery of cats that she pick and choose.
 sTed does not really need the money he is suing for. He is trying to put the blame for their matrimo- nial flooie on Billy. He knows in his own heart he is to blame. He is simple, a poor sport, a rotten loser

The family was seated at Sunday nerzing' breakfast Fred, the son. was the first one down. He had captured the morning paper. at which his father looked enviously.
 What do ye know about this?" exclaimed Fred excitedly, Ted is suing Billy Pearson for alienating his wife's affections. Wants S25,000. He Is right, too. That fellow has been making a play for Peggy all simmer"
 Are these people your friends:' demanded the 4ather looking sternly at his flapper daughter across the table.
 "Fred's friends" she answered briefly
 T simply cannot understand young people these days" exclaimed the father. Tt has been only a few years since we sent wedding pres , ents to these young people and now ' they are airing their family difficult ties in the papers. They went to school with you children. think such things are disgraceful."
 Billy hypnotized her with his dough-" explained Fred. He has sifllions his dad left him and he took Peggy out in his underslung cars and
 
 things
 Mother I should think you would voice your disapproval," father went on. T know such things do not seem reasonable to you"
 Mother is a woman," explained the Flapper. "she knows just what any woman knows. that no John ever alienates any Jane's affections. Her husband is the man who ought to be sued. And Peggy ought to get the damages.
 You men ought to understand that no woman ever gives another man the GO. as long as she is in love with her husband. The average man will make violent love to girl as long as he Is courting her and then pile her up in the house with his golf clubs as soon as she belongs to him and calmly expect her to be waiting there, like the golf clubs, when he wants to take her out and play with her.
 Lords of creation from birth. they expect to stay so till death.
 "The most surprising thing which comes into the lift of a man is when he finds out that a woman has grown tired of him.
 From the day he is born, his mother, then his nurse, then his school teacher and then some pima fored kid have been telling him that he is the greatest thing that ever happened. About the time he begins to realize this is as right as rain some sweetheart or wife jolts him with the fact that there are others

 Washington, September 17,-(Spe cial. )--The return of the summer wanderers in Washington society has begun in earnest. Every train com ing into the city from the various resorts is crowded to capacity ard the roads are lined with motors ping ing home society people who have been scattered over the face of the globe for the last three months or go.
 Heading the list of returned resi- dents of the nations capital, are the vice President and Mrs. Coolirge, who were in New England for about six weeks. They are back now for good and their boys have gone away 70 school at Mercersburg. Pa. The open ing of schools has done much to hur- " home many of the wanderers but the proximity of the date of the dis armament conference Is accomplish | ing even more in that direction, for the social leaders want to have their houses and their wardrobes all in or der before November II, in order that | they may devote themselves entirely to the endless round of entertain | mentS WHICH are SuTC " haatA ehc conference. The officials and dip lomats are busy, too. making plans l for the housing and the entertain ment of the foreign notables coming l for the conference.
 Then prominent persons or several cities are already present hunting | for houses or apartments for the l duration of the conference.
 It isN more than probable that the present trip of President and Mrs. Harding Is the last real pleasure jaunt they will have for some time. Though the President and Mrs. liar ding didn't have any real vacation this summer. they did manage to slip in quite number of short trips 1 by motor and on the PreSdential yacht Mayflower, and visiting 2 few l close friends.
 Both MT. and Mrs. Harding know how to have good time and never 1 fail to take with thme on their pleas ure jaunts, collection of their friends: usually political associates
