 Do you not think that this is a very bold and unlady- like thing for girls to do, and very dangerous as we'll ? They have o means of knowing whether the men they ask for a ride are decent and re- spectable or not.

Emma, The Girl Who Is Always Eating EMMA spends her spare time fuss
 I ing around the kitchen. And
 most of her time is spare. When she was little girl she hung around the kitchen to get the frosing that was left over after the cake was made, or to steal cookies when her mothers back was turned. Her mother couldn't keep her from eating between meals. She begged pitifully for bread and butter and sugar. She was nearly always munching something.
 Now she is generally found in the kitchen, boring over cook books, pre- pairing to make something or sampling what she has on the fire. Constant practice has made her an excellent cook.
 She is type.
 She is the Girl Who is Always Eat ing.
 Of course Emma is fat. She couldn't hope to be otherwise. Her three meals a day stretch out into continuous per formance. She doesn't use any judg- ment- in her choice of food. She loves cream pes, cream cakes and everything fattening. Frequently she indulges her self until she becomes ill.
 Young men like to go to Emma's house for meals. They know they will always get plenty to eat and that it will be delicious. One day young man telephOned Emma asking her to go to dinner and the theatre with him. She told him she had a theatre engage ment but would be glad to go to dinner. Enc young man jokingly responded that he refused to take her out to fatten her up for someone else. Poor Emma vas dissolved in tears.
 Emma is very attractiveETAOlN
 Emma is very sensitive. She says she doesn't understand why she is al- ways hungry. She spends hours talk ing over with her girl friends the best method of dieting, but she just takes it out in talking. She has no more idea of dieting than she has of never eating another mOrsel again.
 Emma doesn't eat to live, she lives to eat.
 She is a type.

In any case, the woman has a right to the happiness of knowing that you loved her. That will be a precious secret for her to hug to her heart as long as she lives, and will keep her from the shame of feeling that she gave her love un- sought. It will save her from the bitterness of thinking that she gave her heart to cad, who used it as plaything and flung it away when he was tired of it.

USEFUL NEST OF TABLES

To begin with, any girl who &C.,. costs a strange man and asks him to give her a ride in his car lays herself open to insult. She has adopted the approach of the woman of the streets and she has no cause for just resentment if men believe 'her to be one and treat her as one.
 An even greater danger to the girl lies in the fact that it is very seldom that the right sort of a man will heed the cry of these girls who are begging for a ride. The gentleman speeds by because he realizes the gravity of the offense against the conventions, even if the girl does not.

 Answer:
 l also have observed girls doing
 this same thing, and I have won
 dered what sort of mothers these
 glrls had that they did not teach
 their daughters better manners
 and warn them of the perils they
 run in joyriding off with any
 stranger who happened along.
 Much might be said of the utter lack Of good breeding, of the absence of all dellcacy and refinement, and maidenly reserve of the girl who stands on the street curb and shouts like a hoodlum to every mOtOrist to give her a lift The very foundation of all decent man. ners consists in waiting until you are asked and not thrusting yourself upon others, or asking favors of them, and it is hard to imagine how any woman who IS herself a lady can bring up a daughter who has so little appreciation of ladylike conduct.
 But 1t is not a question of manners but of morals with which we are chiefly concerned in this matter. It is tho terrible danger that the girls them selves run when they hop the cars Of men of whom they know nothing, for unfortunately, the first name of ali tn, men who drive motor cars is not Joseph and not without reason has the auto mobile lived up to the appellation ot which it was first known when it wa. called devil wagon"

IS an exceedingly meek and self-effac' ing woman, there is a perpetual conflict between new ideas and old in the home One of the chief reasons that girls want to get married is to get a home of their own in which they can do as they please, and the reason that mother wears a smile that won't come off al the wedding is because she is going tC be left in peace to do as she pleases in her own home once more.
 =
 Mother comedies personal liberty to her sons. She doesn't try to boss them, or expect them to fur nish an alibi for every hour they are away from her She doesn't arrOgate to herself the right to tell them what they shall wear, what hour they shall come home, whom they shall marry, whether they shall go into business or not. But she feels she has a perfect right to supervise every detail of her daugh- ter's life, and unless they let her do all of their thinking for them she feels hurt and is estranged from them. When a mother says that she is disappointed" in her daughters it merely means that the girls are not an understudy of her, as she was at their age.
 Lastly, mother is prouder of her sons than she is of her daugh- ters because she hopes that they will do great things and be in the public eye, but she trusts that her daughters will marry happily, and never be heard of again.
 think an estate should be equall! divided between the children. If morl money has been spent on one chile than on the others it should be de ducted from his or her part of the es tate. DOROTHY DIX.

He knows the construction that the world puts on a pickup" on the streets, and the cynical smile that his friends would give if he attempted to explain that he was merely giving a school girl a lift home instead of hav- ing a chicken out for a spin. And he knows that the girls father or mother would be more likely to meet him with a club than a vote of thanks if he de- livered the girl at her own door.
 It is the men without morals, without principles; the men who - prey on ignirance and youth; the sports, the chauffeurs out with their masters cars, who answer the call of the girls who beg on the street for a ride. And once they have their silly little passengers in their cars, who knows where they go? Many and many Q time they start down the path of deStruc- tiOn.
 Only the mothers can stop this pernicious custom, and they can only do it by putting the fear of God in the hearts of their daugh- ters and by making them realize uOW BECdI lS luClI udHBCEP luhJ they literally take theIr lives, and more. in their hands when they en- ter the car of stranger.
 DOROTHY DIX.
 Dear Dorothy Dix: Will you please tell me why all mothers are partial to their sons? Also how do you think an estate should be divided between the children? C. D. R. Answer:
 Mothers deny that they are par tial to their sons. They say they love all their children just alike and that their daughters are really more comfort to them. But every outsider can see that a woman has a tenderness for her sons that she never has for her daughter, and that she spells her boys more than she does her girls.
 Scientists say that this is biological urge, founded on the attraction of the sexes, and that mothers can't help it. It is just nature. Anyway, it is true that mothers are partial to their sons and get along with them more smoothly than with their daughters. And there are many reasons for this.
 One is that the sons and the mothers interests never conflict, and the mothers and the daugh- ter's do.
 The boys never want to take a hand in the housekeeping or change the way the parlor furniture is arranged, or in- terfere in any manner with the way mother runs things. The girls do. They come home from school with new ideas and new theories, and want to make over the home, and unless mother

can take them where he will. Wha do you think of it?

For few hours the so-called progressives in
the house and senate raised noise in the news
papers, with their demand that congress should
reassemble July to consider farm and rail-
road legislation. Simple-mined and trusting
people actually thought that now, at long last,
we should see parliamentary struggle. A fill
buster by few long-winded senators would GER
tainly have registered with more emphasis than
heretofore the determination to achieve some
remedial legislation.
But it was only sham battle. What the con-
gressmen who shout for the farmers and rail-
road brotherhoods wanted was not to stir up
the working class generally to realize that con-
gress is deliberately sabotaging all their mild
demands. What they wanted was just to have
a little issue of their own with which to go back
home and repair fences. They did not wish to
reassemble congress-they merely wanted to be
able to say, 1--WE tried but the reactionaries
voted us down."
Workers and farmers have been falling for the
fake political fights in congress for many years.
The so-called progressives today are but con-
tinuing the old game they learned in the Demo-
Rep school of hoodwinking the workers. Moth
ing but powerful farmer-labor party can really
begin to put up the battle which will lead to the
struggle for power by the working class.
