The Diary of an By Phyllis

Mrs. Edmonds wrote me a sweet letter today, asking me to come to tea there tomorrow. If Fame and my office would permit, and telling me bow ranch she admired my work, etc I felt quite nattered. Laura came In to see me at said office at noon today, and asked me to come to lunch with her. She was awfully excited about something, I eaw at a glance, and so I put away my work and went off with her. Once settled over our chop and salad, she burst out with her great news, namely, that Morgan was urging her to cut all the stupid and solemn nonsense of a big and elaborate wedding, and marry him somewhere In Connecticut within a day or two! Frank young animal that she Is, Laura confessed that they were both far too deeply in love with each other to stand the strain of separation much longer, and therefore for the sake of all concerned It would be better for them to be made one. I agreed with her, of course, and this seemed to please her muchly. The plan runs like this: I. little Llndsey, am to be the accessory before the fact, or something like that maybe chief witness would express the thing more clearly to the public. Be that as it may, Laura Morgan and I are to elope to a small town in Connecticut, day after tomorrow, and there perform the deed. What follows after that is on the knees of the gods, and we should worry. My, it's so thrilling, all this! And to think of my being one of the leading lights in such a grand romance. It makes me believe In Prince Charmlngs all over again, In spite of my newly acquired professional dignity and scepticism. Sweet old Laura laughed her head off when I tld her that I was most assuredly going to turn us all into copy, the day after our escapade. She Is such an understanding soul, and not only wished me luck, but suggested that I make caricatures of the bunch. Instead of taking it seriously. That hows a divine Intuition and generos ity on her part, for she knows how

umor is. Ah, the deadly cleverness of the Heart Problems Dear Mrs. Thompson: I am twentyfour years old and am keeping company with tyo young men. One has asked me to marry him and I have asked for time to make up my mind. He is a fine fellow and well liked by my family. He has a fine position and owns an automobile. He never attended college, but seems just as bright as a college man. The other young man attended medical school and graduated last spring. He does not make as much money as the first by any means, but he will certainly do well later because he has gone Into an office with a physician of very good standing. I like the one who has asked me to marry him and will feel badly if I have to give up his friendship, but I love the young doctor. The doctor has said nothing about marriage, but I am sure he cares for me and is only waiting until he is in a position to marry. My parents like the doctor, too, but they prefer the other because he Is ready now to marry. What shall I do? Shall I accept the man who has asked me or shall I wait for a man in hopes that he will ask me. RUTH. If you are a frequent reader of my column you have noticed many times that women are in trouble because they have married the wrong man not knowing until too late that the right man loved them. Walt for love. I would advise you to tell the man who has proposed that you do not care enough for him to marry. If he cares to remain your friend an nothing more, accept him as such. The young doctor may never propose, but at any rate you can know in your heart that you did not marry one man when you loved another. i What's in a Name (Copyright) BECKY The saucily piquant name of Becky is too generally in usRgre to pass over n a mere contraction of Rebecca. Becky is given In baptism quite as frequently as Rebecca and H is not usually regarded as a Jewish name. It comes however from the old Hebrew word Rabak which means "to hind." The Bible tells us that Isaac's tvife. who is supposed to represent the Ideal noble wifehood, was named from this -word with the idea of piprnifying the firmness of the marriage bond, but Rebecca was by no means confined to Biblical history. She has named the heroines of literature down through the ages. Sir Walter Scott in his "Ivanhoe" -alls the real heroine of his story, the gentle and lovable Jewess, Rebecca. But Thackerey is his never-to-be-forgotten "Vanity Fair" gives us the equally memorable Becky Sharp. It is tirobablr safe to assume that all Beckys dated from this period. Their number are legena ana acquainmess 01 the name, aside from its literary distinction, insures its perpetuation. Becky has a curious talismanlc gem. It is the loadstone which is said to bring her great happiness and many friends. Saturday is her lucky day and P her lueky number. Tan, Red or Freckled Skin Is Easily Shed To free your summer-soiled skin of its muddiness, freckles, blotches or tan, the best thing to do is to free yourself of the skin itself. This is easily accomplished by the use of ordinary mercolized wax, which of course can be had at any drugstore. Use at night as you use cold cream, washing it off in the morning. Immediately the offending surface skin begtns to come off in fine powder-like particles. Gradually the entire outer scarf skin is absorved, without the least harm or inconvenience. The see ond layer of skin now in evidence presents a spotless whiteness and sparkling beauty obtainable in no other way. One ounce of mercolized wax usually is sufficient to completely renovate a bad complexion. Advertisement

Engaged Girl Phillip.

J Male and yet they are forever teaching us that the Female of the species Is more deadly than the Male! Some Ubel, that. Take Morgan, for instance. He Is In love with Laura, wants her more than any other woman in the world (at the moment at least), and filled with this overpowering desire of her, also, no doubt, rather afraid that she may at any moment be stricken with the same disease as Llndsey namely, Ambition, he decides that the only thing to do Is to make sure of his treasure and marry her Immediately. Sets his plan Into motion by making violent love to her for two or three days running, thereby causing the dear girl to compeltely lose her head and decide that she wants him and his love more than anything else on earth and without any more waiting. And so now little Laura is a furiously eager woman; she is awake to the desires of her own soul, and she is as abandoned and unashamed In her love as her mother is conservative. It is Nature's revenge on all conservatism, after all, and the best one possible. I love both Morgan and Laura for their frankness and their love of each other. It's beautiful and fine. I'm glad I'm to be the chief witness. (To be continued.) Bachelor Girl Sayings By Helen Rowland By HELEN ROWLAND. Copyright, 1920, by the Wheeler Syndicate, Incorporated. At this capricious season of the year, a man's "Move-you" Is worth about aB much as a Bolshevik "I-O-U." "Beware of the Greeks most when they offer gifts" a woman most, when she offers platonic friendship. Warning a man against a dangerously fascinating woman Is about as effective as telling a small boy the "cherry-tree" story, and then handing him a hatchet to play with Nnwfiiiavn whn a man malraa 11 n o i j pursue her, he merely stops running Where is the man who used to carry his wife's picture In the bacK of his watch, where he could see It? Gone, gone, dear heart, with the girl who used to carry her money in her stocking, where "nobody could see It." The way of the transgressor, as a general rule, is to blame it on the woman either the one who "drove" him to It, or the one who"lured" him to it. Today's daughter doesn't play with dolls and plan to rrow ud and marry and have four children. She goes to the movies, and plans to grow up and be a "vamp" and have four husbands The secret of social reform may not lie so much in holding women up to the standard of angels as In holding A PRETTY FROCK FOR MOTHER'S .

SAGE TEA KEEPS YOUR HAIR DARK When Mixed with Sulphur It Brings Back Its Beautiful Lustre at Onoe. Gray hair, however handsome, denotes advancing age. We all know the advantages of a youthful appearance. Your hair is your charm. It makes or mars the face. When it fades, turns gray and looks ' streaked, Just a few applications of Sage Tea and Sulphur enhances its appearance a hundredfold. Don't stay gray! Look young! Either prepare the recipe at home or get from any drug store a bottle of "Wyeths Sage and Sulphur Compound," which Is merely the old-time recipe improved by the addition of other ingredients. Thousands of folks recommend this ready-to-use preparation, because it darkens the hair beautifully, besides, no one can possibly tell, as it darkens so naturally and evenly. You moisten a sponge or soft brush with it, drawing this through the hair, taking one small strand at a time. By morning the gray hair disappears; after another application or two, its natural color is restored and it becomes thick, glossy and lustrous, and you appear years younger. Advertisement.

Tells how Dreco built his body and health. Mr. Robert Cressman, living at 41 W. 6th St., Richmond, Ind., has a message for every man and woman who suffers from stomach disorders, nerv ousness, constipation, dizzy spells, and general rundown condition of the system. It Is interesting reading. Here it is: "Stomach trouble was undoubtedly the cause of my suffering. I suffered all the pains of Indigestion after every meal. I also was constipated and had bad dizzy spells. I couldn't sleep at night and was always very nervous. Of course I became greatly rundown and things looked pretty black for me, but I heard so many people speak highly of the new herb remedy, Dreco, and I saw so much about it in the newspapers, that I decided to give it a trial. I took Just one bottle of Dreco, and it did wonders for me; I have never seen its equal. One dose of it buoyed me up wonderfully; I am taking It right along, and am simply getting along fine, now. You can add my recommendation to the hundreds of others." Dreco has time and time again proved its worth in all human ailments, which had their inception in the digestive tract. It seems to be Just the right thing for 6uch ailments as indigestion, gastritis, dyspepsia, biliousness, constipation, sleeplessness, headaches, rheumatism and similar ills. Dreco is not a new fangled patented medicine. It Is simply a combination of roots and herbs put up according to an old fashioned recipe in a modern, scientific way. It contains no dangerous mineral salts, or acids, and is safe and sure in its action. Dreco is now sold by all good druggists and is highly recommended in Richmond by Clem Thistlethwaite.s seven drug stores. Advertisement.
