Married Life the Second Year
BY MABEL HERBERT URN ER. "Ladies' cloak room on second floor," announced the bell boy, "elevator to the right." "I'll wait for you here," said Warren. "Now, hurry up," as Helen entered the elevator. "'Don't s-tay up there primping -we're late now." Upstairs the maid checked her wrap, but Helen could not get near file mirror, an a half dozen women were crowding about It, applying powder and rouge. So quickly fluffing up her hair by the aid of the tiny glass In her purae, she hurried down. Warren led the way through the hotel corridor to the private! room where the club wa.s giving its monthly dinner. The place was in a buzz of confusion. A few were already seated, but many more were crowding around the tablet; trying to find their names on the filip of paper at each plate. "Here we are" announced Warren, locating his own name at. two of the places. "Not. bad Keats. That's the speaker's table over there. We can hear all right- if there's anything worth hearing." "Dr. Hilton," Helen read from the Blip at the plate next to hers. "Do you know him, dear?" "No, I'll doubt if I know anyone her. That was a fine trick of Stevens' Inveigling us into this thing and then not coming himself. "But, Warren, he couldn't help that. He couldn't come if .Mrs. Stevens is 111." "T suppose not. But if it turns out. to be a bore, he'll hear about it all right. I told him I couldn't, stand these elub dinners, yet nothing would do but that we must come." "But dear, it may he interesting. Louise Miller Parks Is to talk on 'Divorce' and I've always wanted to see her." Warren shrugged his shoulders. "These strong-minded literary women gallavanting around-as speakers at public dinners they'd much better be home darning their husband's socks." "But she isn't married is she?" "Then that's why she's talking on divorce. It's the woman no man wants for a wife that goes around putting Bool ideas into the heads of other wornMl." WARREN IS IRRITABLE. Here a small gray-haired man took the seat beside Helen. A stout and ranch overdressed woman was with him evidently Dr. Hilton and his wife. "Like to know when we'll get anything to eat here," complained Warren glancing at his watch. "The cards ay seven sharp it's after half past ow." "But I suppose it is difficult to get anything like this started on time. Oh,; do you think that is Louise Miller Parks?" asked Helen as a woman about forty-five in a girlish pale blue gown took her scat at the speaker's table. "She's ugly enough to be anybody. It takes a woman like that, to dress like a girl of eighteen." "Oh, dear, don't be unkind," pleaded Helen hoping that no one heard him and wishing fervently they would bring on the dinner, which she knew would improve his mood. Here a worried looking waiter dashed tip with the first course four very small discouraged looking clams on a dish of not overclean cracked ice. Warren sniffed contemptuously. "Four clams! By George, they are cutting it close! And look at the size of 'em. Here!" trying to flag a waiter. "We want a wine card." The waiter handed him one from another table and rushed off again. "Now, what do you want to drink? Got to have something to get through a dinner like this. Keep you from being bored to death. Um. running his finger down the wine list. "How aboni some Sauterne?" Then without waiting for her reply, he again beckoned the waiter. "A quart of this No. 228. And bring It NOW not when the dinner's half over." By this time everyone was seated nd all the tables were filled. With keen interest Helen glanced around. It wan plainly a literary crowd, as most of the women were badly dressed. A training after the unusual and the utriklng was everywhere. At the next table sat a tall, thin Mack-eyed woman, her black hair parted and drawn low over her forehead; long Jet pendants hung from her ears, and a black and gold spangled shawl glittered over her shoulders. At the same table waa a woman m-ho looked as though she had been dressed out of the draperies of a cozy corner. Another woman, with reddish hair worn low on the neck, affected a flowing Greek style of gown, which Helen felt sure was made out of white flk shawls, for she had one at home with the same knotted fringe. And aext to her was a long haired frowsy looking man, with badly fitting evenTHICK, GLOSSY HAIR FREE FROM DANDRUFF Girls! Try it! Your Hair Gets Soft, Fluffy and Luxuri- ' ant at Once. If you care for heavy hair, that glistens with beauty and is radiant with life: has an incomparable softness and is fluffy and lustrous, try Danderine. Just one application doubles the beauty of your hair, besides it immediately dissolves every particle of dandruff: you cannot have nice, heavy, healthy hair if you have dandruff. This destructive scurf robs the hair of its lustre, its strength and its very life, and if not overcomes it produces a feverishness and itching scalp; the hair roots famish, loosen and die; then the hair falls out fast. If your hair has been neglected and i thin, faded, dry, scraggy or too oily, get a "o cent bottle of Knowlton's Panderine at any drug store or toilet counter; apply a little as directed and ten minutes after you will say this was the best investment you ever made. We sincerely believe, regardless of everything else advertised, that if you desire soft, lustrous, beautiful hair and lots of it no dandruff no itching calp and no more falling hair you must use Knowlton's Danderine.

By MAUDE MILLER. "The girl of today, the American girl, our own New York girl, is maintaining two very unpleasant characteristics," says Miss Jane Grey, of the "Nearly Married" company. "One is a purely physical defect, the other is mental; but while either of these two predominates, the girl of today can never be wholly charming. AN UNPLEASANT SIGHT. "Can anything be more unpleasant to witness than the absolutely vacant young girl of today, who invades the doings of the younger set, and who is actually offered to us as a type of American girl? She may be seen in any of the tea rooms in company with more of her kind, or with the hectic youth who flourishes in polite society as the American man, and who is most proficient in spending his father's hard-earned money. "Notice the aforesaid young woman, and you will very quickly decide that she is bored with life. She is one of a type, and is too lazy to realize that through a little will power she might become an individual. Bored, of course she is bored. And why should she be otherwise than bored! She is perfectly conscious of the fact that she is boring other people, too. Her friends never seek her opinion she has none to give; she is not interested in any of them. And when she meets some one who is really worth while, her brain has become so stunted that she has no power to exert herself at all, and is judged as light and frivolous with n othought on anything but dress and amusement. "Get out of this rut, girls, and go out into life with the idea that whatever you give of yourself that same ing clothes and dirty finger nails. Plainly an artist or poet. When the cheese and coffee had been served, a fifteen minute intermission before the speeches was announced. Instantly there was a hum and buzz as every one rose and strolled around. Some one slapped Warren on the shoulder. "Hello,. there Curtis, old man! What are you doing here?" It was Mr. Wilson of whom Helen had often heard. Warren introduced her briefly and then she was left to stand awkwardly by while they laughed and talked together. It was one of the things Helen found hardest to forgive. So often when they were out in public Warren would meet some man to whom he would talk at length, ignoring her utterly while she would have to stand by, trying not to seem painfully ill at ease and self-conscious. THE SPEECHES BEGIN. She was glad now when there was a loud rap for order. All hurried back to their seats and the toast-master was introduced. He began with some facetious remarks and the inevitable "This reminds me of a story," followed by the anecdotes of vintage hrand which brought forth the usual forced laugh. Then with much laudation, he introduced the sepaker of the evening, "George Elton Avery, author and playwright." Mr. Avery rose impressively, pushed back his chair, and pulled down his white waist coat. After a silence to give time for the applause to die out and to increase the effectiveness of his opening, he began his carefully prepared and memorized address on "The Drama and its influence on Modern Divorce." The address was very wordy and "sounded well" but was wholly barren of ideas. He was loudly applauded and then toast-master presented "Louise Miller Parks." She rose bowing graciously and effecting a certain girlish coyness which suited the girlish blue gown better than it suited the heavy lines of her face, that the powder and rouge seemed only to emphasize. "Why should there be so much talk and advice on 'flow to Hold the Hxisband?" she demanded during the course of her speech. "Is it not time that something be said about "How to Hold the Wife?' Our papers are filled with articles on how to make home pleasant for the husband, how to keep his interest from wandering. But how aboVit the other side? Why do men not write about that? Should not the holding of the wife's love be as much considered as the husband's?" "Ch!" grunted Warren. "Any man that had her wouldn't spend much time trying to hold her." He said it so loudly that Helen was parue-stneken lest some one had hard. "Oh. don't piease don't, dear," she whispered. "Then let's get out of here I'm not going to sit Through this twaddle!" "But we can t net while she"? talking." "Well, it'll he a darned long time before she's through. "Sh ss. dear! sh-ss." "It is time." Miss Parks went" on. "for women to make men feel that her comfort and pleasure must also be
will come back to you. Forget the
i fact that you are one of a type. For get yourself, and give your thoughts to other things and other people. Be an individual. THE OTHER DEFECT. "And now for the physical defect. Young girls of today should be uniformly slim, not thing in one place and out of proportion in another. And still, whenever the girl of today gains, she gains in the hips. And immediately she. begins walking to reduce. But how does she reduce? She walks rigidly, like a wax doll. She strolls on Fifth avenue and stops to look in every shop window, and imagines that she is becoming thin b ythe minute. Did you ever stop to wonder why men never have stout hips? It. is because they know how to walk. They exercise the muscles that should be exercises, they w-alk freely, they fell the hip bone turn in the socket at every step. They don't walk stiffly, and yet they don't swagger. They simply walk right. What an admission, girls, tto have to practise what a man does naturally! But if you could all realize what wonders can be accomplished with the right kind of walking yoti would begin today, this very instant, to walk as nature intended you should. "With the elimination of these two very common defects the American girl would cease to be a type. She would be individually beautiful at each and every stage of life, and she would be perfectly capable of making every attraction count. For, most wonderful of all. she would have given into her keeping that precious possession that every woman longs for, the power to grow old gradually." studied! That the problem of marriage is not only 'How to Hold the Husband' but 'How to Hold the Wife." "Oh, Lord!" grunted Warren. Helen secretly felt that Louise Miller Park's address was really very good but she did not have the courage to say so. The next speaker was Dr. McKay Maurice, who read a very long and tiresome paper on "Divorce as an Epidemic." The speeches were not supposed to be read nor to exceed fifteen minutes but this rule was not observed. It was over after that. As the announcements for the next dinner were being made, Warren pushed Helen through the crowd toward the door. "As if anyone who lived through thiswould want to come to another." he growled. "Well, if they ever get me here again they'll know it!" A Hint to Young Mothers. "When my children show the slightest symptoms of being croupy I give them Chamberlain's Cough Remedy, and when I have a cough or cold on the lungs I take it for a few days and am soon rid of the cold." writes Mrs. Clay Fry, Ferguson Sta., Mo. The iirst. symptoms of croup is hoarseness, give Chamberlain's Cough Remedy as soon as the child becomes hoarse and it will prevent the attack. This remedy contains no narcotic.
