NEW BRITAIN DAILY HERALD, A STORY YOU CAN Her Side Huw Cora and David Temple By ZOE BECKLEY BEGIN AT ANY TIME --and His Solved Their Marital Problems It was difficult to know whether Walter had declined to accompany his { wife and Roy Nicoll on the motor ride because he really was Dpressed with work or because he didn’t care to g As the car started smoothly from the curb, both Janet nd Roy were thinking of it. But only Janot felt any embarassment. Nicoll didn't care whether Walt Stedman went or not. To icoll, Stedman was more or less of a figurehcad. Nicoll had his own views on men and money making and marriage and how hus- bands should treat wives and, al- though he liked him well enough, Stedman didn’t quite measure up. Nicoll was just as well pleased that | Janet w. with him alone. Not that he had the shadow of an unpleasant intention. No—that began end- ed, he told himself, with the sudden “fit” he succumbed to on their last drive, when he had yielded to an odd temptation and kissed her. Emo- tional experiences of that ordinary | sort, he reasoned, could be pur- chased. So far as Janet Stedman was concerned, she need have no fear of further annoyance. “And, by the way, little said alovd, realizing that something of this might also be passing through Janet’s mind, “try to forget that fool- ish business of the last ride. It won't happen again. I'm no more anxious to offer you insult than you are to have me. T see how vou feel about it—and I respect your feelings. Most of us men are willing to respect wo- men’s feelings, once we know them. Half the troubles girls have to con- tend with would be avoided if they'd only let it be known in the first place that they weren’t looking for—well, for flirtations, we'll say, or fearing them.” “It doesn’t seem quite chivalrous,” } urged Janet, “for you to assume that were all looking for flirtations. Would not it be nicer of you to wait and see,” | i lady,” he “No, my dear. Tt is a tradition | that the man must pursue the woman. He isn't supposed to wait until she gives a sign. He must be chivalrous enough to assume she is fleeing and pursue her.” “That's a strange idea of chivalry, murmured Janet, not being able to think of a good argument. “There are many strange ideas of chival went on Ro. ‘Some men think chivalry consists in setting a woman on a satin, cushion, feeding her with cake and Honey and keeping True Reasening—or False? vanity and love, chivalry cons Other men believe in giving a woman her ‘rights’; Jetting her have equality, fraternity ana liberty, the French put it. This kind of chivalry,” said Nicoll somewhat pointed “often leads to a woman overtaxing her strength. It can't be pushed too far. The woman, in her eagerness for free- dom, her anxiety to do her full share, undertakes more than she can away with safely. If you don't look out, yow'll be a victim to that kind of chivalry yourself, my dear young get Nicoll had ¢ n his words and his tonc carefully. Whether his r were true or false, it ce sonnded true and made the exs pression on Janet's mind that he tended it should. 1t happened Janet was more than usually tired that night. er mnerves had been ned throughout the day by \ suc- of office difficulties and small haps. In her weary state, Nicoll's words sunk in deeper than they or- dinarily have. She was silent a mom- ent, thinking, her mind divided be- tween loyalty to her husband, who loved her enough to grant her per- fect liberty, and a weariness of flesh and spirit that cried out for rest and protection and a cessation of toil. Be- fore she could formulate a reply, Nicoll added: “THere's a better kind of chivalry than either of those others. It's the chivalry that gives love and freedom of action and at the same time pro- vides the care that makes freedom possible. That, Janet Stedman,” said Nicoll with sudden emphasis, “is the sort that should be given you. You're the kind of woman who should com- mand everything—love, riches, free- dom of action, social position, every- thing!” Janet grimly smiled to herself in the darkness as they sped along. It was easy for a man who could offer all these pr but never had done s0, to talk thus to a woman whose choice in life had already been made. Somehow his words punctured the little bubble of joy their excursion had promised to bhe for Janet. She suddenly wished she could go home. She felt weary and puzzled and dis- tranght. lverything seemed wrong “Roy,"” she said impulsively, want to go hac Whether he understood or not, he slowed down instantly and turned homeward. There was a smile on his ing in- that her mind closed to everything except & lips, but Janct didn’t see it. Styles in clothes are foolish things. When you come down to it they are really nothing but the year mark that the merchants are clever enough to put on their wares so that we won’t be satisfied to wear them until they wear out. Just think of the reduction in the cost of living, if there were no such thing as style, and women were satis- fled to wear a garment so long as it was comfortable and in good condi- tion. Think of the narrow skirts that we put into the discard two years ago, not because they were worn out or shabby or not as becoming as when they were bought, but because they were branded 1914. Styles Change Faster Every Year. Of course, there have always been styles and changes of style, but the way the pace has been accelerated in the last few days is alarming. Once upon a time a style used to last two or three vears. Now they change every year. Nay, more. Haven't you heard the saleswoman say, “I think yowll like this better than that; this is a model we just got in, and that was one of the early fall models. But I did not come here to rave against clothes styles. I know the futility of it. As we approach the millenijum we may also approach an ideal in this respec Beauty and be. comingness and durability may out- distance style as the criterion of STOMACH SOUR? STOP Don’t Suffer!

But what T do want to protest against is styles in faces, Do you know what I mean? Let me sketch the face that is in style nowadays and see if you don't recognize it. Can’t You See This With Your es Shut? The hair is strained back from the forehead and brought down in front of the ears, in some kind of little flapadoodles. The skin is clear but unnaturally white.
