Compared with most of the
other large breeds, he is 1.-the,
graceful and alert.
Quite contrary to his name,
this dog is not Danish, but in
his present type is a purely
German-developed breed. In
his own land he is known as
the boar-hound. Much vague
opinion is set forth as to his
true origin. Similar dogs were
known to have existed in an
cient times in Egypt, in Rome,
and in Greece.
Plastic
The Great Dane is one of the
most plastic of all breeds, and
his disposition may be nodded
at the will of his trainer. What
ever he may be when he grows
up depends almost entirely
upon the manner in which he
is reared, or his early education
in the hands of a new master.
His very keen intelligence
together with his absolute faith
in his trainer makes him espe-
cially worth developing insofar
as one derives keen Satisfac.

His Mother Objects

Dear Miss Fairfax:
I've been engaged to a young
man for two years. We're both
old enough to know our minds,
as I'm "a and he's 26. We
plan to be married soon, but
since my fiance told his mother,
everything has become changed.
He's an only child. His
mother worships him and tries
to discourage him about our
marriage, saying unkind and
untrue things about me.
He doesn't believe these
things, and says he will be
able to talk his mother round,
but that it would be better to
postpone our marriage for a
little while, until she becomes
more reconciled.
I'll admit his mother has
made great sacrifices for him,
giving up the man she loved
because he didn't want a STEP
father, and has worked day
and night to give him a col
lege education.
Would you advise me to
break our engagement?
GRETCHEN.
Distinctly, no! I should not
advise you to break your en-
gagement. A great many
mothers, confronted with the
thought of dividing sons af-
fection, act this way when they
first hear of an adored sons
intention to marry.
Bide your time. feel sure
your fiance will be able to
talk her over.

For a general companion,
watchdog, personal or property
guardian, one cannot select a
better breed of dog than the
Great Dane, provided there is
enough space to keep him in.
His strong affection and un-
failing devotion are unsurpassed
and his noble, almost human,
characteristics are second to
none in canine circles.
He is one of the safest and
most trustworthy of dogs for
children, and will not only pro-
tect them from strangers but
will never turn on them in case
they happen to trample on his
paws, or otherwise accidentally
injure him. He shares honors in
this direction with the English
bulldog.
Graceful
While not of a fighting dis
position, the Great Dane will in
no wise tolerate insults from
other dogs, although smaller
dogs he completely ignores. But
if two Danes, come together in
battle. there is almost invariably

put. You have your choice of
blue, red or green enamel,
striped in black and chromium.
And don't think you have to
sacrifice your particular makeup
tones, for you also have choice
of shade in rouge, powder and
lipstick. Refills of each may be
bought when you need them,
and all are scented with very
popular fragrance. All in all,
it is a pretty efficient idea, and
most every girl has longed for
such a compact, especially if
she changes the contents of her
handbag frequently.
But please keep in mind that
making up" should be done pri-
vately. not publicly. It only takes
a minute or two for you to van
iSh and return nicely refreshed,
and I can assure you that no
man enjoys watching you apply
artificial beauty. If you are a
wise duckling, you will keep
him and others guessing
whether it is your natural bloom
of youth. A subtle application
of your makeup will do the
trick!

Life Is So Full
All, life is so full and life is so

wood
Where seldom another soul
went by,
But only myself and the trees
and the sky,
I should never tire through the
long years there
For the richness of life is every.

In winter I'd watch all the shy,
furred things
While I'd hear how fiercely the
north wind sings;
I'd learn strange secrets Of
squirrel and fox
And I'd find warm lairs hidden
back of the rocks.
My Sun-dried corn with starv.

Till it strengthened and left

With its fruits and blossoms,

higher IN the next few months,
so it is just as well to lay in
supplies now:
Modern Classic Room
We're showing a picture on
this page today, of a very pretty
dining room, which is on dis
play in a downtown store. It's
classic modern in feeling, with
Duncan Phyfe type table, in
the new oval shape, chairs
adapted from the Directoire
style, and an unusually good
looking buffet which unfortu-
nately doesn't show, and a
lovely china closet.
The decorative scheme of the
room is nice, too. The rug is
green, and the draperieS are of
gold taffeta, in a lovely design.
The glass curtains are of sheer
celaneSe ninon, also in a gold
iSh tone.
Suede Shoes Smartest
Suede is by far the leading
leather for shoes, numerically
speaking. 1t can be worn for
every and any time of day,
hence it's popularity. It goes
well with the dull surfaces that
we like so well this year, too.
We're showing a picture today
that illustrates how attractive
suede can be, and in how many
versions it may be worn. On the
left is street oxford, in black
or brown, admirably suited for
wear with tweeds or tailored
clothes of any material.
In the cepter are sandals with
T-strap, banded with leather so
that they are more sports-like
than formal. On the right are
walking oxfords, which may also
be worn for golf. Each pair
comes in black or brown, and
are priced only 1898.

I should like to send the mother

tical one for day use; or a
dressier one, say of black velvet,
for afternoon wear; or one, say
of dull gold lame, for evening
wear. Or several plain white,
beautifully sheer handkerchiefs,
monogrammed with her two or
three initials. Or a set of foun-
tain pen and pencil, with her
initials or the facsimile of her
name imprinted on them.
Or q small folding, travelling
clock, which she could also use
on her dresser or desk. CThiS,
too, could be imprinted with her
initials.O Or a photograph frame,

ones perhaps, or a leather one.

Woman
|sGettingHis
Money
BY BEATRICE FAIRFAX
Dear Miss Foirfov.

Dear Miss Fairfax:
My husband comes home very
often under the influence of
liquor. He pulls out the con-
tents of his pocketS-keys,
money, letters, whatever he has
in them-and throws them on
the bureau.
Of late he has not given me
any money with which to run
the house, and we would often
be hungry if my parents did
not help me.
There is the usual other
woman in the case. My baby
has been going without shoes
all summer. I didn't mind as
long as the weather was warm,
but it's too cold to do that
now, and she gets sore throat.
From the money on the bu-
reau the other night I took
$500 anG bought her a pair of
shoes and some stockings.
My husband called me a
thief, and his conduct was so
outrageous and brutal that I
hesitate to write you about it.
He threatens to have me ar
rested for stealing.
DISTRACTED.
Nothing could clear up the
tragic situation of which you
write me more quickly than to
have your husband bring you
into court.
Legally, he is bound to pro-
vide for you and the baby, and
the judge would see to it that
he fulfilled these obligations
or send him to Jail. His threat
is a empty one.
It might b. a. good move on
your part if you actually did
what he threatens to do, and
took your troubles to a do
-mestic relations court, or it's
equivalent, in your home town.
