IT IS WOMEN'S FAULT THAT
THEY ARE NOT GIVEN
MEN'S RESPECT
-(By Dorothy Dix)
What woolen need more than any-
thing- else in the world is pride. Pride
in themselves. Pride in their woman-
hood. Pride in the work that is es-
sentially their own. It is women's
lack of pride :in themselves that makes
them grovel before men and take any
kind, of treatment that men accord
them. Look where you will and you
behold the sorry spectacle and wo-
men smirking and smiling and jolly-
ing and flattering and yes-yessing
trying to ingratiate themselves with
the lords of creation. Seldom does
a man take trouble to make the slight-
est effort to please women.
Watch any couple at a restaurant
or in a theatre. It is the woman who
is doing all the talking, making all
the effort to be bright and interest-
.ing and entertaining. The man is
-sitting up in a bored indifference,
suffering his handlmaiden to amuse
him if she can. It is the woman who
reads up on .topics that the man is
interested in so that she may be able
to converse intelligently with Crit.
It is the woman who listens pat:en-
tIy while the egoist monologues a-
long by the hour abrrut how great
and wonderful he is, and about how
.he sold :a bill of goods, and what he
said to the boss and what the boss
said to hint. But no woman is fool
ish enotigh to expect a man to read
iti) on the fashions so that he rt..
&discuss the length of skirts or the
;new neckline, intelligently with - .r
;and ' every woman knows that the
minute she begins talking about her
.cern personal affairs to a man he says
-good-night and never returns.

In the home, in ninety-nine cases

Yet the Women who do these things,
have no pride in then. The • dispar-
rage their calling and look with envy

ATTRACTIVE WAVES ADD TO
ITS CHARM
(Ily Josephine Huddleston)
The wind-blown bob seerns to be -
conte more popular as the winter sea-
son get into swing. The present ad-
aptation of this mode, however, is
quite different from the short straight
wind-blown bob which made its rnaid-
en bow a few season's ago, being
much • longer for one thing and trick-
ily waved for another, To be a little
more definite about the length, we
find that in many of the. newest wind-
blown effects the ears are concealed,
But for one "cut" where the ears are
concealed, there are two that show
at last a suggestion of pink lubes and
others that bring the ears right out
into respectable society again. The
latter is particularly true when t '.
individual has a steal' ear that lies
close to the head.
But whether the wind-blown hob
is short or long, waved or straight, it
is very much in evidence at all sma't
gatherings..
One particularly attractive bah of
this type observed by the writer at a
recent opening, showed a goodly a-
mount of ear and came well out ou
the cheek just below the eyes. The
hack was swirled, although the short-
ness of the hair in the back permitted
of only one wave. But what a wave!
Oh, lady! lady! -it was to see and --

discretion to the winds asked the
young lady. Fortunately, however,

Frotin then on it was easy to call on
the hairdresser and fiuci out the de-

even for side parting. After cornb-
ing the hair into shape, the Waving
fluid is applied and the waves set.
The waves must follow the same
slant in which the hair lies on the
face if the trite purity of the Wind-
blown lines are to be kept. The first
wave should be placed on the right
side. of the head and it shoul lie :at.
approximately a twenty-five degree.

waves follow the first and last wave
corning well out on the face. The
ends can be curled out or back ac-
cording .o the individual choice. Per-
sonally .I think turned out ends fit ra-

turned back ends,
The left side is then waved, the
first part of the wave being set op-
posite the first wave on the right
side. But instead of drawing the un-
der part of the wave to the right, to
fbrin a dip it is drawn to the left so
that the first wave, when completed,
faces to the back. This wave is
carried around the head until it rea-
ches the end of the first wave on the
right side forming an almost perfect
circle.
The second wave falls just where
the hairline meets the forehead and
should appear to run right into the
second wave on the right side at
the front. A third ware is now made
to face the back and has the ends
curlingout on the forehead.
Of course, you can't do the cutting

t:.xplain from this article just what
you want, and any intelligent hair
dresser can follow your suggestions.

lite Road to Fortune is Still Open
• to Those 'Who Can Blaze the Path
for Themselves By the 7t'r;sistahle
Might of a New 'idea;
A girt of £500,000, to be used as a
trust for the benefit of hospitals and
for hone for orphans, and crippled
elt.ildreta, has eentra'i attention on Mr.
Bernhard Baron, the millionaire ci-
garette manufacturer,
Before this latest gift, Mr. Baron
had already given 11,250,000 to
charity. Yet apart from the fact of
his benevolence, very few people
know very much about him. Not one
in a thousand realizes that the lite
story of the great, philanthropist. is
one of the most wonderful, romances
of modern business.
He emigrated, penntless'and friend-
less, to America from Russia at the
age of sixteen At first he worked as
a eiragette maker, using his deft fin-
gers. Then his busy brain hit on the
idea of a cigarette -making machine.
He invented it. He went to liiugland,
started in- a small way, and built up.
the great firm of Carreras.
Another story of an idea that
meant millions is that of the Court-
aulds. Rathermore than a century
ago a Huguenot family settled in
Braintree, Essex, and wove silk in an
old oak -beamed mill. The tam.ily
worked themselves and a few outside
hands were employed.
The little business was handed
down from generation to generation,
bringing its owners a competence,, but
no more. Then, ten years .ago, a no-
tion of making artificial silk came to
a member of the Courtauld family.
.After many difficulties.. and in the
face of much scoffing, this novel fa-
bric was put on the market.
To -day no name is better known in
the business world than that of
Courtaulds Ltd., and the company re-
cently distributed a :share bonus of
no less than £12,000,000.
Lack of capital is often cited as a
reason fortatainess failure. Yet most
of the vast businesses of to -day were
foundedanddeveloped by men who
had to wrestle with this handicap.
Take the case of the late Col. Mor-
rison. He left over £2,000,000. Yet
when his father, the founder of the
great firm of Morrison, Dillon & Co.,
started in life he had just enough
money to 'open: a they shop. He in-
augurated what was thea the start-
ling idea of small profits and quick
t eturns.
That was another idea that meant
'wealth. When the . elder Mox'rison
died he left a fortune that made
every one of his seven children mil-
ionaires. Incidentally, the State
benefited from. the Morrison millions
to the tune of £11,000;000 in death
duties.
Years ago a little lioy'/lamed Mack-
ntosh started to work at ten years of
age. At twenty-one he married and
opened a little shop. Instead of
stocking all sorts of seeeets, he de-
cided to sell but one. In a brass pan,
at the back of the littih• shop, Mrs.
Mackintosh boiled the first batches of
he now world-famous toffee — a
sweetmeat that made Jbhn Mackin -
ash a millionaire. His "'one sweet"
dea hada held the germs ef a great
