Write out your answer to-day and mail it to The Ouija Editor, ; ‘The Evening World, New York City | Here are some recent answers to the Ouija Editor’s questions: Mabel, N. Y. C.—Smoking takes all the charm from a woman and invari- ably coarsens her. Women have plenty of other things in which to resorting to find pleasure without emoking. Irving Davis, Brooklyn, N. ¥.—Well, if they think that it will do them any good let them try it. Yes, let them even try to smoke cigars, for who can doubt that with the first cigar they will get a lot of experience. There is one big argument against female to- acco flendy—and that's the feminine heart. The poor thing is #0 easily broken that we know that “tobacc! hearts” will be prevalent if the cus- fom spreads. Arthur Skulky—Any girl ein smoke cigarettes for all \ care—but my giri—not even ‘cigars, Katy Bluebell, The Bronx—It's a question for the women to decide. Do ‘women try to regulate men’s smok- ing? 1 myself do not care t. But 41 did care I'd like to see someone ary to stop me.

Page of the Morris Gest forces sends us a postal card from Dublin which reads as follows: “In Ireland for two days. Went to the races to-day at Limerick. There waa a jockey named Dudley. I played his horse. He ran next to last. Hope this is not a bad omen for you in your race for the Presidency on the Limerick ticket.” We don't want any of our support- ers to be blue about this. Wo have investigated the incident by cable and have learned that the Dudley mcunt was a sniff horse belonging to an Irish distiller. It seems that at the seven-eighths post a man exhibited a bottle of \ hiskey and started away. The horse, on seeing the bottle, stopped and neighed. That was why he did not finish first. It was a mean trick and has set all Limerick talking. There is much indignation, Ima Vamp of this city has solved our "Moe" trick rhyme. Her solution of it follows: She sat in the twilight with Moe, Who figured that he was her beau. “1 love you," he hissed, She doubled her fist And soaked him a terrible fish-cake, Now, to-day’s puzzle Limerick needs @ word that means much .n the life of John the Barber. Try to solve it, and, if you do, send us a check for $200 und a bottle ‘of olives for the} campaign fund, Ihe rhyme: A ruler once satd to his slave: “The atrike of the barbers is grave; My razor I'll hand you, And then I'l command you To give me a dcautiful Ago” atthe Booth hae written a book of. verse.
