She came in all smiles, "What is this I hear, dear?" she asked. "Is it really true that you are a rich wo- man? If it is I am very, very glad, "lI am not so sure about it, Alice. I have been from 'childhood taught that 'money does not make happi- ness." "What you should have been taught," said Alice, "is that money is not essential to happiness. But I be- lieve that money almost always makes people happier thon they would be in the same circumstances without it. I have never taken much without things and be quite as happy as others who have them. Tom Expresses Unbelief "Tom says a good deal of the old teaching is nonsense, that he doesn't believe virtue is its own reward, he! doesn't believe that money is the root | of all evil, he doesn't believe that all | you need is love to make a happy | marriage." { "Why, Alice, I didn't realize that Tom was such a thinker." | "Yes, he is, Katherine. Tom and I| have a great many tastes in common. | a great many beliefs in conimon, a| great many opinions in common, and | think, perhaps, that is why we get | | along so well." | [ "1 don't recall, Alice, that I have! {ever heard you say before that your! | married life is happy," 1 commented wistfully, for 1 did want to feel that | someone was happy. | "Perhaps, Katherine, it is my tem- | perament, but I rust admit that I | have never been radiantly happy. Ra- | ther, I am very contented, and, after { all, that is best. You have a tem- | perament that makes you feel poig- | nantly every emotion. Perhaps you { can enjoy more than I, but, alas, you can grieve more than I possibly could. Personally, I am glad to avoid the kind of love that would have me al- ways on the mountain top or down in the valley. 1 like the repose, the even | tenor of my life much better than the constant nervous strain which you must be under." "Then you think, Alice, that my temperament is quite as much at fault as John in this feeling of un- happiness and unrest that seems to be always with me?" Different Kind of Man. "No, my dear. I just feel that by the noted author M<Gione you should have married a different kind of a man than John--one whe is not always getting on your nerves." | "But, dear, I love John. Even to- day, when he was terribly angry with me because I would not turn over my oil business to him, I couldn't help thinking how handsome and splendid he looked." "You're a queer little creature," said Alice, "but don't, I"implore you, ever turn your business over to John. In less than six months he would be thinking that the entire business was his. Don't misunderstand me. I know that he would carry on your busi- ness efficiently, perhaps better than that nice cousin of yours, but it wouldn't be your business any longer --it would be his. By the way, John was furious with you for selling the diamond pin. Has he spoken to you about it?" : : "I know he was furious," I said impulsively. s "Why, how did you know?" was her surprised question. "Because I heard you and John talking when you thought I was still unconscious," "Oh, woman, woman," was Alice's laughing answer. "How did you keep still under the lash of that discus- gion? By the way, are you going home with him?" "No, my dear, I am going to stay here until my nerves get perfectly quiet again. Besides, I do not want to quarrel now with John over every |} little detail of this new fortune that || has come to me." "Which you would have to do, if, i as you insist, you put it into another man's hands for management." Splendid Business Man. "I think, myself, Alice, it is not verv nice of me to do this, and under ordinary circumstances I would be very glad to have John handle it, for as you say, John is a splendid busi- ness man. If he had been generous with me with money, if he had ever allowed me to have one thing to say about money I would have been very glad to have turned this whole thing over to him; but I'm sure, Alice, that you see that my very life's happiness depends upon keeping this business and income in my own hands. It seems freedom for me. I do not have to live with John unless I wish, I am economically independent." (Copyright by National News- paper Service) Tomorrow--Eyes That See Not WOMAN PROPOSES. In Some Lands It Is Always Leap Year. Onee again with 1920, women have a chance to take the initial step to- wards providing themselves with an to them, according to Mormon phil- osophy. The return of a year which leaps forward a day, bringing te them a _rivilege monopolized by man three years out of four, has no signi- ficance for women of many lands, since they enjoy that liberty all the time. The women of no race possess more freedom in this matter than the Hopi Indians of Arizona. A maiden does not woo the man of her choice, but simply and forcibly states her Proposition to his mother without any encouragement on his part. Her only preliminary proceeding is to do her hair in' two gigantic whirls, one over ear.' This is her announce- ment that she is going a-courting. These peculiar knots are intended to represent the blossoms of a squash vine, symbol of virginity, but to those uatutored in their meaning they re- semble huge door knobs set at a rather viplent angle. When some de- butantes thus announce that they are 'out on the carpet,' it is said that as many as six or eight of the eligible young men of the tribe literally take to the woods, pt Te After this aggressive young lady has selected her victim and his mother has agreed that he shall be sacrificed, she serves in the house of her future mother-in-law for thirty days, grinding meal, very much after the fashion that Jacob of old served fourteen years for Rachel. The poor youth. in the meantime does not sit idly by, but weaves her wedding gar ments. Among the Batus of the Ugand: Protectorate of Africa, if a girl is no fortunate enough to be asked in mer riage in her home town, she goes tc another village and offers herself t: some man there. Though not hon eat your introduction. fo the heavenly king-| dom, a boon which marriage brings' ed In her own country, she at least receives consideration in that of her neighbor, for a woman is an agri- cultural laborer and' a Wan is not likely to refuse such a business asset. The Galla woman of the eastern coast of Africa has the rare privilege among savage and half-civilized peo- ple of refusing to marry a man who is undesirable to her. Little is known of the marriage customs of the ancient Egyptians, but we can easily believe that women had at least the privilege of expressing a preference if they did not actually do the proposing, for, if we trust the historian, Didorus, a man promis- ed his wife to grant her complete con- trol over him and to offer no objec tion to her commands. Some survival of this liberty of Egyptian women must have perme- ated other portions of Africa, for princesses on the west coast of that continent whose children may become future rulers choose their own hus- bands. Nor is a princess limited in her choice to unmarried men. She may just as easily decide upon one who has already eatered the mar- riage state, and the poor fellow has to put away his other wives and be- come her slave. Moreover, she has the power of life and death over him. He sometimes has only one consola- tion----he inherits all her property if he is fortunate emough to be spared until her death. ' In the Tyrol a gir! may express her preference for a man by present- ing him with a bottle of spirits. If! she is afraid that her procedure has | not the indorsement of her parents she may ocentrive to lower the pre- cious 'fluid at night from her cham- ber window. swain a tip that he is the 'apple her eye' by going with him to his at the time of the harvesting of oats to help him carry in his crop. It is said that at this season one sometimes sees a procession of gally- decorated carts going a-field, a will- ing maid seated in each. One of the obligations of a father in Roumania and Bosnia is to provide so well for his marriageable daugh- ter that when she is presented with a ist informing her of the means and what an infusion of Pure Fine Tea Tast In the Realm of Women--Some I nteresting Features Get a Packet, and Realize Really es like "SALADA" Black, Green'or Mixed = Never Sold in Bulk day.
