Dorothy Dix Tcks
For the Summer Girl.
~ DOROTHH DIX
Wo71A's Highest Paid Woman Ws4eaR.


Now the ten commandments for the
summer girl are these:
1.-When thou fareth forth on thy
railway journey be not one of those
foolish virgins who -cumbereth herself
with a multitude of boxes and bundles
that overfloweth- her neighbours seat,
and blocketh the aisle of the Pullman
and causeth him who barketh his
shins thereon, to call vainly on the
name of his maker. Neither be one
of those accused damsels who mo-
nopolizeth the dressing room. and
smeareth it all up with rice powder
whilst they put a permanent wave in
their hair, and execnteth a hand made
complexion that is like unto an Old
Master for skill.
But be thou one who traveIeth with
single bag, and dresseth quickly. and
layeth light hand on the towels, so
shall thy sister travellers arise and
bless thy name.
2-When thou hikest forth for thy
summer outing spy out warily the
place in which thou pitcheth thy tent.
In particular shalt thou note whether
the male inhabitants be as plentiful as
the sands of the sea, or as rare as
hens teeth, and thou shall give heed
to whether they be senile grandpaS,
or callow jellybeans, or men ripe for
the altar. for what joy is there to a
maiden in sojourning in an Adamless
Eden, and what profit is there in
angling in waters in which there are
no fish?
s.-Look we'll to thy raiment. and
see that thy stepping-out clothes are
snares. for the eyes of the beholders,
verify, even a green peach looketh so
luscious that men desireth it. and
men taketh it home when they behold
it thru the allure of pink mosquito
netting.
4. Take heed to thy weight. and
if thou tilteth the scales at more than
"a hundred pounds let none beguile
thee into hammock, for a fat woman
who sageth down a hammock like
unto a sa ok of potatoes. and hath to
be hoisted therefron with a derrick,
lis a mock and a byword to the be-
holder. Also-go not forth in bloomers
and Knockers until thou hast gotten
the candid opinion of thy dearest
enemy as to the fairness of thy under
pinn:ng.
For behold, beloved. skirts are even
like the mantle of charity that COW
ereth up a multitude of sins, and the
maiden who discardeth them ofttmes
revealeth to the multitude that which
else had been secret between her
and her Creator.
s. Watch thy step in the summer
hotel, and walk discreetly, for the
tabby cats who knit as they sway
back ana forth in rocking chairs are
like ravening lions, seeking whom
they may devour, and they will gladly
tear thy character to pieces. and roll
it as a sweet morsel under their
tongues
G. Be civil to thine own sex. Scorn
not the elderly dame who sitteJh
apart, and weareth upon her head
couture of the Mckinley vintage. and
a frock that looketh as if her deadly
foe had bought it. Snub not its
maiden who looketh like one of those
virtuous damsels who will only reap
their reward in heaven. Verify,
verify, life hath strange surprises up
its sleeve, and many a frumpish
mother and sister have a son and
brother who come down to spend the
week end with them who looketh like
a prince, ard is a real spender.

MCUNfBER,s DEFEAT.

Senator McCumber's defeat for re-
nomination in the North Dakota pri-
mary is explained by the senator him
self on various grounds, none of which
perhaps is the true one. He ascribes
it in part to the Nonpartisan league,
but it is significant that the man who
beat him had but recently been re-
pudiated by the voters and the league
was powerless to prevent his recall.
The Chicago News probably is near
the truth when it says:
Senator McCumber's tariff boosting
activities could not have failed to in
jure his chances of denomination"
The MISUNDERSTANDING tariff BIZ!
as it has emerged from Senator Nc
Cumber's finance committee, it points
out is not only stupidity unscientific
and uneconomic, but VIGOROUSLY in
the interest of a few wealthy manu-
featuring beneficiaries and opposed 70
the interest of the people. If enacted
into law its effect would be to encour-
age monopoly and raise prices injurf-
ously to the consuming public.
Evidently" says the News, "the
farmers of the northwest are not de-
ceived by the pretense that excessive
tariff rates would benefit them. They
have learned that the principal effect
of duties placed on agricultural prod
ucts in the emergency tariff law Of
1921 has been to narrow their market,
while the McCumber-Fordney tariff
bill would increase the prices of vir-
tually all articles the farmers have to
buy"
AS contributing to the senator's de-
feat, the News mentions the bonus,
concluding as follows:
The McCumber bonus plan must
have been potent also in contributing
to its authors defeat. That wholly
insincere measure, designed to hood
wink former soldiers and sailors and
help anxious senators and representa-
tives to be reelected, has had exactly
the opposite effect. The campaign
fatalities among congressman who
promoted and supported the make
shift scheme in face of the presidents
sound objections have been numerous
and conspicuous.
Unless the majority in congress is
wholly blind to the significance of re-
cent political events it will reconsider
price-raising tariff bill and a decep-
tive bonus measure that would load
upon the United States treasury new
and provide no way to meet them.

truth is that few persons outside Of
