as majestically over the smile OF
the charwoman as does the tenn
peramental tenor over thousand
scented love notes.
For the majority Of men honestly
think that they could be perfect
devils with women II they would
only let themselves 60. The fact
that they do not have females fol-
lowing them down the street in
droves is not because they are not
fascinating and handsome and APP
realing, but only because they ex-
ercise such virtuous restraint.
Marriage as Favor
Every man who marries figures,
even if only subconsciously, that he
is comforting a tremendous favor
on his wife.
One reason why so many men are
unfaithful after marriage is this
longing to appease their inordinate
masculine vanity. They may be
perfectly happy at home with their
wives, but If they happen TO hear
some fellow recounting new con-
quest they can't bear the idea Of
running behind. Like the scalp TO
the Indian chief, is woman's notice
to the average male. He is not such
a bad old thing at heart; he is only
another Signor Schipa on a smaller
scale. He's got to have notice and
lots Of it. If he can't get 1t at home.

Men Feign
Dislike for
Admiration
BY MRS. WALTER FERGUSON

One of the saddest things we
have seen in print in long time
was the wall of Signor Tito Schipa,
noted tenor, when he recounted the
difficulties he had in eluding the
multitudes of women who were con-
stantly chasing him.
This fascinating creature, like
many another in the public eye, be-
lieves that practically all the wom-
en- in the world are out after him.
He recites his hardships at the
hands of hordes of women who,
having seen him languishing on
the stage, Immediately stampeded,
and started to grab his clothing for
souvenirs or to get a smile from his
ruby lips or a glance from his melt
ing eye.
The signor may have suffered all
Of these tortures, but we'd best take
his announcement that he hates
that sort Of thing with large grain
of salt.
Knows No Glasses
All men, whether they be great or
humble, live with the idea that il
they would only start their charms
to working, the women of their
acquaintance would drop at their
feet. From the lowest to the high
est, they boast openly or to them
selves Of their conquests.

women with matronly figures. One
piece frocks are also preferred
above two-piece types in most in
stances. Diagonal skirt manipula-
ton is used on many models which
vary from the general vertical skirt
effect. Tiers, f1ounces and any skirt
trimming which tends to increase
ones breadth are poor substitutes
for vertical or diagonal lines.
Large women are getting away
from wearing black to a great ex-
tent. Black and white effects, navy
blues, beige, flesh and even white
are said to be leading stout shades
for sumner. Printed materials are
we'll liked by most large women, the
print usually being used with solid
color for contrast. The combination
Of two materials is also we'll liked.
Lace and chiffon combinations add
softness which is fattering to
plump figures.

The water, like the sky, is an in
PRODUCTION. A bathing suit is a
leveler Of persons. We scan not the
casual acquaintance for evidences Of
prosperity.
The same wave washes the driver
Of the flivver and the owner Of the
limousine as we'll as those who
travel on shank's mare. The shanks
may be lean or meaty, they may be
bowed or straight. Abdomens may
bulge Indignantly at restraining
belts or recede, in terror from the
chilling waters, but a common pleas
ure makes friends of all.
Such being the case, lady near
me deigned conversation. I soon
found myself in serious discussion
over divers ways of making blueber-
ry mullins.
Our conversation developed and
grew. 1t included everything from
the Geneva conference to the ter
rible hours the young people were
keeping. The waves swelled and
receded around us. Then the in
evitable happened. We began to
talk about our nerves. 1t seemed
that both of us were over-supplied
witha jumping variety. We became
confidential.
My new friend leaned toward me.
She made a motion such one would

I didn't say I was sick of my
friends, but I did say, Il know ex-
actly what you mean"
What she meant was that people
we are with constantly, strum on
the same string and we get out Of
tune bit-like a piano.
New people and new scenes are a
tonic. Mountain and seashore are
not essential to vacation days, but
change of some sort is, if possible.
An apple day may keep the doctor
away, but I'd rather take a chance
on a holiday.

man who meets with her approval

much as she does.
She does her own cnooSnlg' YOU
