Veteran of Matrimonial Fail
ures to Tell How Marriage
Should Be Conducted.
BIZ United Ne1os


NEW YORK. Aug. 1.-As a veteran
Of two matrimonial failures and the
author of a book which has hopes
Of being suppressed into prominence.
Miss Jane Burr. a feminist of 10,
daughter of a st. Louis millionaire
named Guggenheinn, speaks a few
words Of advice on love and the some
what related topic of marriage. She
is about to sail for England, where
she is best known, on a cruise of
the world, in the course Of which the
shop girl Of London and the trial
wife of the remote Tropic Island, will
doubtless hear that God has failed
as a matchmaker.
Confessing that both Of her own
attempts were botched, Miss Burr
might seem to be an incompetent au
thority. But she says she has kept
her ears open. and if she should ever
tell a portion Of what wives in St.
Louis and Chicago have told her
there'd be no end Of a scandal-se-
crets about the technically virtuous
state Of being wherein husbands and
wives are only practically faithful.
1t was Miss Burr's novel, 1.-THE
Passionate Spectator which was just
recently favored with the unfriendly
attention of New York reform agen-
cles, after 1t had received somewhat
the same sort Of helpful notice in
London. where it was first published.
Her Letters Of a Dakota Divorces"
and THE Glorious Hope also evoked
what is known as Comment" and her
new novel. THAT Woman" gives
promise Of similar vitality.

cut in one with the frock; for Jack,
a straight overall with a plain blouse

Ratine. jersey cloth and pique are
popular for practical wear and linen
leads for dress-up clothes. Vrey little
trimming is used-a bit Of hand hem

Children's clothes are designed now
so that mothers may make and laun-
der them easily and children can wear
them comfortably Practically all the
garments shown in children's shops
are extremely simple.

the gay throngs.
Though the real season made a sad
start with weekend rain, the vast
crowd, driven indoors by the Unsea-
sonable weather, kept the gambling
houses busy. All thirty of the chemin
de fer tables were crowded with pa
irons, mostly playing for small stakes,
however. Even Lord Glencnnner con-
tented himself with So bets.
Plungers seem equally as scarce on
the beach as in the Casino. The only
sensation on the beach was afforded
by a pretty girl in black bathing suit
trimmed in pierrot style with large,
fluffy red pompoms, which she was
very careful not to get wet The
beach at the fashionable bathing hour
presented a vivid kaleidoscope scene
of brightly colored bathing caps.
Among the idlers on the sand were
noticed Baroness Derlanger, formerly
Mrs. Peter Cooper Hewitt of New

But, you see, the Fuzzywump had a
very wonderful magic book, and when

carried a basket.
And as they watched the little girl,
who was Red Riding Hood, they saw
a great big, large wolf run out Of the
bushes and speak to her. Good morn

carry your basket, little Red Riding
Hood?'
