Do They Ever Come Back?

DO They Ever Come Back?
DEAR MISS FAIRFAX:
I suppose I'm Just one Of the
million girls who breaks her
heart because the man she
loves has been disloyai to her.
I read an article Of yours not
: long ago, saying, Don't show
too plainly how much you
care" Well, that was my
trouble. / showed there was
nothing else on earth for me
but this man, and he left me
for women whose devotion he
was less sure Of. Is it all a
game with these men? DO they
hunt women for the sport OF
the thing; and when they bring
us down, do they lose interest
as a sportsman does In q dead
rabbit? I'm ashamed to say
/ Still love this man and would
do anything to get him back,
but do they ever come back?
My observation Is they do not.
TERESA M.
Sometimes they come strag-
Cling back, like q disabled ocean
liner that knows it can't brave
the storms and the safest thing
Is to return to the friendly
shelter of q tried harbor. When
q man comes back to q woman
he has thrown aside it usually
means that life has dealt him
the same sort Of blow. He
wants sympathy, he wants to
be admired, encouraged; he
wants to find a refuge with
someone who thinks he is the
greatest thing in the world
her world. And sometimes his
tragedy is he's come too late.
the adoring woman has got his
true number. Be that as IL
may, men as a rule do not
come back when once they've
finished unless they've had
some pretty hard knocks on
their own account. Take up
the thread Of life-to spoil your
eyes weeping over someone who
Is having a good time else
where is the height and depth
Of folly. This viii answer

Boys and girls jackets are
made practically alike with

and buttons except that they
fasten on opposite sides, OF

And they're q good practical
investment. Ask any fashion

Lounging Robes
Children like their lounging
clothes just as much as grown
ups. Fashionable boys copy

they do In so many other

that nothing quite equals the

CnapGSf q
Jim Tracy set his lips in .
firm, straight line. Something
beyond his understanding was
transpiring. Something tn at,
threatened - onsctously he
knew--his marriage on the NOR
row with Connie.
All evening he had been
aware Of the strange, inner tu-
mutt the girl had tried to hide.
He had no more evidence Of
the impending disaster than
this subtle, but poisonous. dis
turhance OF his mental security.
Grilnly, Jim Tracy decided
that no power on earth should
deprive him Of Connie, should
rob him of all she meant TO
him In life. Not only his happi'
ness, but his whole career. was
based upon this marriage. NOW,
on the eve Of the wedding. ne
was going to see to 1t that there
woliid be no slip. no last.minute
catastrophe.
throughout all his senses an
exquisite perception Of Comics
loneliness throbbed with q de-
sire that was almost an ache.
She was not, he conceded
firmly. the most beautiful girl
he had ever seen. What at
tracted him mostly was her
fire, her vibrant response to life.
She was SO alive that people
called her reckless, daring, in
discreet.
A Beautiful Girl
Swimming and golf and ten
mis- had given her slender young
body the lissorne suppleness OF
d fresh sapling. No girl he
knew had such q beautifully
shaped head, such distinct
bronze-browVa hair sweeping
back from a low. broad fore
head and terminating In q flat
coil at the nape Of her lovely
neck. Beyond doubt she was
fascinating to all men who
gazed into her long. golden
brown eyes, with changing
flecks Of yellow in the irises.
Yet, one thought of her per.
eonaIiky rather than of her
beauty; there was strength in
her tanned skin, not the appeal
OF dimp1e softness. To the mind
she pictured freedom In self
reliance: the restrictions OF
limited money did not belong
In Connie Calvert.
All these things Jim Tracy
had soaked into his soul through
the open pores OF his mind. OF
al the men she knew, he, alone,
had found her secret strain Of
tenderness and had shouldered
his way into her affection.
And, now, he was taking no
chance Of losing laer-he could
not afford to.
The thing for him to do; Of
course, was to follow her car,
and he started his own motor.
For @ mile he trailed her and
then d perverse imp of nlisfor-
tune halted him. Once, twice,
his engine sputtered and the
lnaddening realization came to
him that he had run out of
gasoline. Bitterly he cursed the
lnalevolent happening.
Toward the City
Ahead Of him, he saw the tail
light OF Comics car rise over
q hill and disappear on the long
road toward New York.

POI alton of Paterson, N. j., fired the 1900
men on its force, receiving SO cents an hour
when working, and later reopened with women
at the rate of S14 week. The State High
Commission of Montana announced wage cut
for all its workers effective February 81, and
amounting to $1.75 a day, according to the
Butte Engineers Union. The Lynn Shoe Manu-
facturers Association proposed 20 per cent
wage cut for its workers. Lake Stages bus
drivers in Cleveland struck against cut of
one cent mile. In Philadelphia, the Barry
more Wilton Rug Co. cut wages Is per cent.
The Chalton Mill in Fall River, Mass, cut
wages SO per cent. The Delgad Cotton Mill
of Wilmington, Delaware not only introduced
two additional looms for each worker but also
reduced the piece rate from 81 to $315 mill
lion picks. One hundred leather workers en-
ployed by the KRISTEN Co. in Peabody Mass,
struck against 10 per cent wage cut last
week. The number of cases could be multiplied
by similar cuts in every part of the country.
In the face of facts like these, the "Wall

wage cuts sis one more striking difference be-
