She Married An Average Man BY ZOE BBCKLEY

"You're much too serious," Athena i fizzed in her funny, tempestuous way, throwing off her wraps and touching up her face at my dresser mirror. "You don't know how to manage a husfcand. Always treat a stolid man as if he were a skittish colt. Call an old codger 'naughty boy. Flatter a halfbaked youth by being shocked at his sophistication. Rumple up a dignified man's hair; he loves it after the first Ehock. If a man is shy, pretend he's a regular devil. As for James, your husband, why, Ann, it simply ruins a male of his type to take him soberly. Muss him up. Confound his stogy theories, laugh at him. Poke his ribs. Bite his ear. Don't you see, he is impressed with his own importance? Never let a husband be too much impressed with his own importance. Never let him feel too sure of you!" I was so sure Athena was wrong that I hinted gently that Jim wasn't exactly crazy about her, and that it she tried her tricks on hjm he'd dislike her more than ever. "I know he doesn't like me," she answered. "And I've never cared a tinker's dam. But Twant you to come to my masked ball and so I'm willing to make an effort to bamboozle your exasperating husband. He's refused you. Now watch him fall for me!" It must be Athena's assurance that makes her so succesful with men. It

certainly isn't her beauty, and she is

forty if she s a day. When Jim came in he found her setting cocktails at each plate.

"We're having a party, James," she

eald, disregarding his frown, "and you

are not properly decorated for it. Come here!" She snatched a big red rose out of Jier corsage, jabbed it deftly into Jim's buttonhole, patted his reddening face nd twisted bis hair into two points above his ears.

"There, that's better. Now drink your nippy. Here's to life, liberty and the capture of happiness!" I watched Jim narrowly, and, as I'm a living woman. I detected symptoms of the ice breaking. There's

something about Athena, when she ; gets going, that makes you like her j even if you hate her. Suddenly she I squinted her eye at Jim, pursed her lips and frowned. j "You're etill too somber for this J party," she criticised. "Come! A ' royal robe for Sir James " And 6he darted to a closet, dragged out the gay dressing gown I gave Jim for Christmas and started to put him into it. I He demurred, of course. But be-' fore I could catch my breath, she had his coat off and was actually threatening him with the carving knife. In another moment the two of them were chasing round and round the table, Jim trying to get his coat on, Athena waving the knife in one hand ! and the purple gown in the other, i She finally landed him, and still I threatening his ribs with the carver, j stuffed him into the robe. Then she enthroned him at the table's head, j poured another cocktail, and. changing in a flash to solemn humility, offered it to him on her knees from a silver tray. j In a moment we were all laughing ' and having more fun than a barrel of monkeys. Of course Jim consented to go to the ball. "I'll admit it was rough stuff," Athena feaid afterwards, "but extreme cases call for extreme measures. Did I succeed or didn't I?" "Oh, you did! But, Athena, dear. I never will be able to do it. If I had

done some of the things you did Jim would have been perfectly ilisgusted and outraged." "It's because I'm not afraid of men.

you little silly. When you're fortyone you may know something yourself about managing marriage." (To be continued.)

Heart and Beauty Problems By Mrs. Elisabeth Thompson

Dear Mrs. Thompson: We have read in your columns th'i good advice that you give many young ladies. We are five young ladies writing to get advice from you. Our age3 run from 17 to 23. We dress neatly, rather good looking, and use powder and a light form of paint. There is one thing that seems queer to ua. When we are In town or any where else, everyone notices us, especially the men. 'Often times they stop us and ask for dates, but we do not go as we are very respectable girls and do not go with strange men. We have lots of young men friends who have gone with 'us but they seem not to want us for their steady. Thpy seem to love us very much when they are with us and they talk of marriage. What do you think could be the reason for this and why are we so attractive? Wondering Girls. Unless you are verv noisy on the street or dress in loud and attractive clothing, I can see no reason why you should attract so much attpntion. 1 am afraid you girls expect this attention and of course the people on the street can see that you do, and naturally watch you. In order to keep the Interest of men, you must be able to talk on topics of the day and hav j plenty of what we call "common

fusing to have daten with strange men, for as scon as you make yourself common, then you will never be respected. I should advise you girls to read more, be careful of your actions on the street and when with the men try to be interesting and not entirely entertaining. Dear Mrs. Thompson: I am a girl 16 years old. Am I too young to marry? There is a sailor hnv vhnm t rioarlv lnve and lie savs

he loves me and asked to marry ra".

He Is a fine young man ana win nave good position when he leaves the navy, he has a special trade. Please advise me. I have a girl friend 17 years old who

bashful and timid, probably that is

caused by her surroundings. She lives in a small town where nothing ever happens and she does not have an opportunity to meet any young people. She reads everything and is a good scholar. She says when she is out with young people she cannot think of anything to say. She thinks "smal. talk" and silly expressions like "do tell" are very foolish. She insists on being serious minded. She has hig'i ideals and thinks that some day she will meet the right man. She has no boy friends and is In every way an "old maid." I wish she would be like other girls, but do not know how to make her so. Please tell how to go about it. Thanking you. Blight Eyes.

Yes I believe 16 is almost too youns to marry, for when you are so young you are not sure of yourself, or just whom you really love. I would suggest that you and this sailor boy wait a year or two and then see if both of you wish to marry. The only thing I could advise for your quiet little friend, is to invite her to all your parties and gatherings and

where possible get her engagements

with your boy friends. If he wishes to be serious minded, that is no hindrance and probably will make her more interesting to her friends. If she reads and is a good scholar she surely c'an carry on an interesting conversation and entertain her friends.

"What's in a Name?"

Facte about your name: Its history; Its meaning:; whence It was derived; Us slirniftcance; your lucky day and lucky Jewel. BY MILDRED MARSHALL

ic'opyright. 1919. by The Wheeler Syndicate. Inc.) EUGENIA Born to queenly honors Is Ehe who bears the name of Eugenia. Its origin is in the Greek language where it is derived from a word meaning well-born. Its modern adaptation by the French into Eugenie is famous throughout the world since it is borne by one of the most illustrious women of history, the former Empress Eugenie. Its popularity in France Is enormous and its Anglicized version, Eugenia, has great voguo in England and America. Us history dates back from Eugenes, a very old Greek writer, but Eugenlas was the most popular in classical times. It was carried on as Eugenius by the Remans. St. Eugenius was a confessor and another Eugenius was a Bishop of Toledo in 646. Indeed, it has always been a favorite' as a masculine name and has been borne by men of power and prominence. Eugenio was the name of that high spirited Savoy called "le petit Abbe du Itoi," who was later the Prince Eugene, dear to England and Austria, and terrible to France and Turkey, yet curious to relate, foe that he was his name enjoys greater popularity in France than in his native country. The first and only Eugenia that history recalls before the birth of the Greek Eugenie was a virgin Roman martyr, about whom there is very little known. The Empress Eugenie's history is too well known to need recalling. The poignant grief over the loss of Alsace and Lorraine has made her one of the world's tragic figures. It was she who said when she was dead, if her heart could be removed from her bodv. the names of those

two beloved provinces would be found'

engraved there. Eugenia's tailsmanlc stone is that regal jewel, the diamond, which denotes victory over enemies, when it is dreamed of. Worn by Eugenia it is an antidote for poison, since the stone itself was believed by old superstition to be a deadly poison. The stone also affords protection from the plauge and set forth in verse is its prophecy: "The Evil Eye shall have no power to harm Him that shall wear the diamond as a charm. No monarch shall attempt to thwart his will, v And e'en the god3 his wishes shall , fulfill." Saturday is Eugenia's lucky day and 1 her lucky number, The daisy, signifying innocence, is her flower.

Says Gen. Leonard Wood: "American Democracy Is The Power That Will Put An End to Bolshevism!"

'Copyright. 191. Underwood & Underwood.!

CKX. LEONARD WOOD.

In a great interview accorded a special representative of The Star the famous military leader tells: Why Internationalism is the death-knell of a nation ; Why woman's new power will throttle the red flag and help to correct the present industrial evils ; Why the laborer is worthy of his hire; Why American democracy is the hope of the world. Who Could Better Discuss Such Issues Than Gen. Leonard Wood? Edward S. VanZile, who interviewed Gen. Wood for The Star, has drawn from this foremost 'American more than an interview it is a tense, gripping sermon that goes to the very heart of Americanism, weighing with infinite analysis every present-day element of danger in the path of every man and woman of this country. One can almost imagine it is the voice of the great exponent of Americanism and the beloved friend and companion of Leonard Wood, Theodore Roosevelt, that is warning the American people once more and rallying them to a new battle against the foes of the republic
