While we're at the giddy eyes of

| more or less on the lookout for the
same kind of man.
1t isn't very difficult to pick out a
Prince Charming-the main trouble
we have is in attracting him.
Give a. boy good looks. nimble
dancing feet. a smooth line and an
attractive manner-and half the fe.
| male population in his town will make
desperate efforts to ensnare him.
For while we're young and giddy
we have just the usual girlish dreams
| about the hero we'd select as a life
mate.
It's only as we outgrow our matinee
hero ideas that we come to realize
the Importance of other qualities in
future husband
We come to notice solid, substantial
things about men which aren't in the
least attractive to gay young things
on the lookout for agile dancing part
ners.
If we're wise we don't marry a man
because he has characteristics which
are attractive to all women-we
marry him because he's fundamen.
tally suited to us, and because he has
lot of important virtues which will
make a good husband.
II married Roger" Jean told me-"
and we've been terribly happy. But
I've never thought I deserved any
credit for picking him out.
1T was just dumb luck on my part
to pick a man as thoughtful and con-
siderate as my husband.
when / married him | had no idea
In the world whether he had a single
dependable quality.
Il fell for him because he was
darned attractive. knew how to say
pretty things. drove a car we'll, and
was awfully amusing. Also the other
girls were wild about him.
Because / fell so hard. l decided to
marry him, and it wasn't until I'd
been married a few months that
realized what a lucky grab I'd really
made.
Then 1t dawned on me that the
reason / was steadily falling more
and more in love with my own hus-
band was because he was unselfish
and thoughtful and terribly straight.
forward and honest.
I'D never have fallen for a man
who possessed just those sterling
qualities and nothing else. I'd never
have considered them important be-
fore marriage.
But I gasp now when / realize
how little I really knew about Roger.
He might have been the most selfish
pig in the world and I'd never have
known II until it was too late"
How many of you are contempla-
ting the matrimonial plunge, firmly
confident that you're in love-but not
at all sure that your mans character
is worthy of a real love?
How many of YOU have fallen for
blues eyes, wavy hair and an irresist-
ible sense of humor-without taking
the trouble to find out what lies In
back of all that attractiveness?
Ask yourself now: What are the
qualities in my man which have made
me fall for him." And having given
an honest answer. ask again: Are
those qualities going to be valuable
in a husband? If not. what am l
going to fall back on, when the first
flush dies?"
The men we fall for easily aren't
always the men we should marry.
Mimi will be glad to answer any In

thing, with slender legs and a frou-
frou of tarletan skirts.
Beneath her small black satin mask
her mouth was wide and. generous
with flashing white teeth. She laugh
ed often and danced great part OF
the time with a Harlequin in brilliant
colors. He also wore a mask, but the
part of his face that was visible was
not generous. He had thin lips. and
as he looked at him Mark had the
feeling that even as his lips parted in
a smile his eyes would be cold.
He didn't know why he followed so
closely the dancing of Pierrette and
Harlequin. Perhaps II was because
they danced so much together.
There was cutting in, of course, but
no sooner would some one else dance
with Pierrette than the determined
Harlequin would cut in again. He
thought this modern way of dancing
stupid. What fun did the youngsters
get out of it? Certainly it would be
preferable to dance through a number
with one partner instead of being
snatched from one partner to another.
And yet the girls seemed to like it.
Doubtless it was a test of their popu-
larity.
Mark had just come from the train.
He hadn't seen Mrs. Maynard as yet.
A servant had carried his luggage up
stairs, and from the library where he
had been ushered he had wandered to
the door Of the living room, drawn by
the sound of music.
The youngsters took not the slight
est notice of him, but as he stood in
the doorway voice spoke to him
from the rear.
Mark
He wheeled about. Maude Maynard
stood beside him. II didn't expect YOU
till tomorrow" she said warmly, hold
ing out her hand to him. Lets go
up to my sitting room, where we can
talk. It's the one place where 1 can
be sure of privacy"

Clues to Character
BY J. o. ABERNETHY.
The Chef.

If you succeed at any vocation you
must have a real interest in what you
are doing. A lawyer more interested
in engineering than law will fail at
the bar. If a doctor is more inter.
ested in law than in medicine he un.
doubtedly will have comparatively few
patients. And SO 1t is in any vocation.
If a man be thoroughly interested in
what he is doing and has the mental
abilities required for success in that
particular vocation he will be more
successful than If he cares little for
his work.
A smart chef one who can make
tasty dishes. who thoroughly under
stands mixing and appreciates fiavors
and seasoning and likes what he is
doing, you may be sure has thick, red
lips, especially the lower lip. He also
will have wide head. The region
just above the ears and slightly for
ward and backward will be we'll filled
out, for there are located the gusta-
tory faculties. The kind of head we
have just described is not found on a
lean, skinny chap, but the fat or
plump individual. A fat man lives to
eat while a lean one eats to live.

THE DAILY
HOROSCOPE
Tuesday, January 4.

Many kindly planetary influences
are active tomorrow. according to
astrology, which counsels extreme
activity while this conf1guration pre-
walls.
Women now come under the most
energizing influences, which promise
for them big achievements In many
branches of public work.
This should be a favorable rule for
seeking any sort of employment. and
women should be especially diligent
in searching for the right place while
these signs prevail
This is read as a. rarely lucky wed
ding day. since 1t presages good for
tune as well as lasting love.
Again the seers forecast the de-
velopment of a woman f1nancier, who
will gain world. wide fame.
Banks and banking come under
direction of the stars which forecasts
extreme activity and great expansion.
Persons whose birth date 1t is have
the augury of success in the coming
year. which will bring many tokens
of esteem from friends.
Children born on that day are
likely to be we'll balanced and ex-
tremely kindly and sympathetic by
nature.

the frock than anything else-just as
the shaping of the collar Is the most
important consideration of a Winter
coat. Women who sell ready-made
evening frocks will tell you that it
is harder to sell frock of a chosen
color with an unbecoming neckline
than a frock with a becoming neck
line of a. color not at first considered.
Some of us can remember the time
when evening dress meant low neck
and short sleeves" The two express
sions were synonymous. Times have
changed. Now daytime frocks may
be made with fairly low necks and no
sleeves at all, while some evening
frocks have long sleeves and some
have high collars. The low-cut back
is, however. something that is left
almost exclusively to the evening
frock and sometimes 1t amounts to
almost no back at all. A beautiful
back is something that no woman
nowadays has much difficulty in show
ing-and she usually has no scruples
in doing so.

water It contains.
Keep the tray under the gas
burners Of your range spotless
by lining 1t with two or three
thicknesses of paper. News
paper will do. Change the
paper every other day; 1t will
not ignite, as you might think.
To beat the whites or eggs
quickly put in a pinch OF salt.
The cooler the eggs the quicker
they will froth.
To cool a hot dish in a hurry
place it in a vessel full of cold
salt water.
Use soap bark for cleaning
wooden goods. Soak 10 cents
worth over night in a pail of
warm mot hot) water. In the
morning strain and add two
thirds of 1t to the water in
which the goods are to be
washed, and If veryA much
soiled, a teaspoonful Of am
monia. Pour the rest of the
water in which the soap bark
has soaked into the rinsing
water, wiring the goods we'll and
hang out of doors, where they
will dry rapidly. When nearly
dry, iron on the wrong side.
The soap bark not only cleanses
but gives a little body to the
materials as well.
If corks are returned at once
to bottles and bottles to the
shelf. If the bottles are. wiped
clean. there should be no stained
shelves.
