Diary of an Engaged Girl

By Phyllis Phillips

What a time we h'ad. We danced our heads off, and sang the old songs. It was every bit as thrilling as being at some dance in Greenwich village, I can assure you. Johnny and I reminisced madly about the days when we haunted all and any queer cafes that we could possibly find, and roared at the memory of some of our wildest escapades. The only time that his face dropped was when I announced my engagement to him. "Aw, Lindsey, I had always thought that you at least would be the one of the crowd to remain true to Art and Life," says he sadly. I answered that I expected to remain ever true to both of these, my old loves, but circumstances had made it imperative to be true to myself first! I don't think that he got me at all. His eyes were quite dull for a long time after. But when I danced with him just as I used to, he brightened up considerably, I can tell you. And almost went delirious with delight, when after dancing for a long time in my uncomfortably new pumps I suddenly whirled them off my feet in the middle of the maddest steps possible and spun around lighter than ever. "That's the old Lindsey," he said, giving me a hug of approval. "Lord, but it's good to know that you are still one of us, in ppite of fiance." All considered, it was a glorious evening. And by the time that we realized that there was a train to catch for most of us, we parted in the good old way, racing each other all along Chestnut street as far as the Broad street station, where we pinched each

SIDONIE One of the most charming and interesting little names in the feminine cutegory is Sidonie, heroine of novels beyond number, and yet quite commonly in every-day usage. Sidonie is another of the names which iire derived from places and means "of the city of Sidon." Curiously. Sidonia is tht feminine of one of the most famous masculine

names of Roman history. Her prede-l cessor was Caius Sollius Apollinaris j yes, actually Sidonius. He was said I to be the most curious character of the dark ages, a literary and married bishop of Clermont, in the fifth century, who, though possessing a reputation for extreme pioty, was vastly,

different from the customary conception of ecclesiastical sanctity. This good man has been canonized by the church and the 23rd of August has been set aside as his feast day. His only name-sakes have been women. France first evolved a Sidonie, which is still extremely popular there. Then came Sidonia as a Spanish product. The daughter of George Podiebrand of Silesia was Sidonia, also called Zedena. As early as 1488 Sidonia was in vogue in Germany. George Cable, whose military romances are still widely read even by the growing generation, did much to establish the popularity of Sidonia here when he so named the heroine of one of his most popular books. The turquoise is Sidonie's talismanic stone. If set in gold, it will protect here from all danger. Monday is her lucky day and 1 her , lucky number.

other farewell as we betook ourselves to our various trains. I was to spend the night with Greeny, so we found ourselves finally on the last train to Merion, tired, but infinitely happy. Greeny has the sweetest little house all to herself, not far from the station, and we walked along in the moonlight to the house, enjoying every step of the way. It was a glorious mid-summer's night and our perfect communion was unbroken, until just as we came to the front gate the air was rent by the wails of Greeny's daughter, Elsie Jane. She certainly has a good pair of lungs, that child. In a moment Greeny was transformed into a mother, and fairly flew in, and up the stairs to quiet her offspring. I followed more soberly, and managed to knock over a stand in the hall, which in turn seemed to inflame Elsie Jane to redoubled efforts in yowlin. I sat me down on the bottom step and waited for order to be restored, and after a long wait Greeny reappeared beaming, and somewhat short ( of breath from her exertions. Elizabeth that's her real name. Elizabeth Green, Green's a nickname is married to Harry White, and "Whitey," as we call him, is in New York at present studying. Consequently she is alone save for an aunt of hers who lives in one of the rooms upstairs, and leaves Greeny pretty much to her own devices, probably because she is deaf. Greeny was and is one of the most promising artists that I know, and yet she told me that for two years she has hardly touched a brush. I call it scandalous. She calls it maternity! Be that as it may, I took her sternly to account for not mixing the two a bit, especially now that she is practically free. No Whitey to cook for or anything. Of course she told me that she would start in to work again eventually, and loved her work more than ever, but I am sceptical. That girl is an artist at making midnight suppers without a doubt. As we talked she flew about getting sandwiches made, and hot coffee, in a way that astonished me, for we had been dancing for hours. We burned the midnight oil for a long time before turning it.

Mrs. Solomon Says Being The Confessions of The Seven-Hundreth Wife. By Helen Rowland

(Copyright, 1920. by The Wheeler Syndicate. Inc.) My Daughter, hear now the Invocation of the Bride, which chanteth in her secret heart. "Oh my Beloved," saith the Bride, "I pray thee, whatsoever else thou doest, shatter not mine ILLUSIONS! But keep the graven Image, which I have made of thee, bright and glowing! "Bare thv sins and moods and foib-

1 les unto me, if thou wilt but I beseech

thee, bare not thy NECK, nor let me see thee without a collar! "Let me behold thine early-morning grouch, if thou must but let me not behold thee with thy face covered with Fhaving lather, and thy locks sticking up in tufta like unto a formal garden. "Kiss me, or spurn me, but do not, I implore thee, place thine unshaven cheek against mine, nor caress with a two-days' beard! "Deceive me, if thou canst but I beseech thee, do not ogle other women in my presence, nor flatter them when I can hear. "Remember my vanity and my romantic ideals to keep them sacred! "Awaken me not from Love's Young Dream with a swear-word or a snore! "For, verily, verily, every woman is piven a thousand recipes for holding an husband's love but a wife's love is supposed to be held by- a wedding ring. "A man's affection, like unto an orchid must be tenderly nurtured with flattery and devotion; but a woman's like unto an air-plant is supposed to subsist upon imagination. Yes, it is estimated INDESTRUCTIBLE! "For lo, what man will not cheerfully light the divine fire in a woman's heart, and then leave HER to furnish all the fuel, forever after." Go to! A woman will persecute herself with all the tortures and machinations of modern invention, that she may be pleasing in the eyes of her Beloved. But a man saith in his heart: "Thou are my Wife and my Rib, and the only woman on whom I have bestowed the legal right to love me! "Therefore, I charge thee, LOVE me! "Lov me.

"For, I am thine Husband, the bestower of checks and kisses, and the dispenser of food and raiment, and charity. "When thou desirest inspiration, look at ME; when thou yearnest for diversion, hearken unto my wisdom; when thou pinest for mental stimulus, think of me! "And, when thou sighest for LOVE, remember that I married thee, and that therefore, it followeth that I MUST love thee!" Selah.

Heart Problems

Dear Mrs. Thompson: When I was 22 I was very popular and went everywhere. One young man especially cared so much for me that it made him crazy when I went out with others. His love for me was so great that I promised to marry him. After our marriage, my husband was called out of town because of business and so we moved to another state. I am an only child and so I have missed my parents terribly. My husband still loved me, but he had won me and that seemed all that was necessary. He never took me anywhere, but he did try to relieve my loneliness by giving roe animals. He brought me two Angora kittens, because both were so cute he could not choose. I stood life away from home for two years and then I became so desperate and homesick that my father secured a position for my husband in our home town. I was certainly glad to get back. Only one thing is different: mv husband is not like the husbands "tif my former friends. He is growing stouter every day and he is lazy, while their husbands are alert young men. When I am alone with my husband

I love him. He loves me, too, and is very kind to me if it does not take any effort on his part. It hurts me to say so, but when I am out with our old friends I am ashamed to think I married the man I did. He is not a success in business or in anything because he will not exert himself. Would you advise me to get a divorce before we have children. UNHAPPY.

No, I would not advise divorce. It is evident that your husband loves you. Probably you love him, too, more than you realize. If divorced, you would want him back again. You can do much to help your husband and to inspire ambition. Yon and he ought to read at least two nights a week. I believe you would find books and articles on salesman

ship a great help. Without a doubt, they would interest him and at the same time teach him that certain habits stand in the way of success. Besides this, get him to go for walks or to exercise in some way. Remember that no one is free from faults. To have the love of your husband is something to be envied. I agree with you, however, that laziness is hard to put up with.
