"You must have don something; de clared -mamma wisely as tha pretty girl bounced Into the room declaring that Bob had called her "snippy" and that aha waa never going to eee him again. "Think of him Insulting ma Ilka that." flamed Oladya, "and then aaylng that ha didn't want to know tna any more!" Again mamma put In bar oar. What did Mia Oladya do to Mlatar Bob? Af ter a moment of hesitation all th de tails of th sorap cam out. Oladya bad dona something; more over, she was always doing th same thing. She had mocked tha boy friend befora other girls, given him tart re plies for his boy opinions on this and that subject, even guggested that he buy another sort of hat. She had been insolently personal, rude, hateful. And yet poor, tormented Bob, who knew what a fine girl sha was wtth all her foolishness, had only railed her snippy." And h had gone off with tha only threat any self-respecting boy would otter he didn't want to sea her any more. , Of course. It was difficult to get all of those admissions out of Gladys, but aa aha Is an honest girl they did coma to light finally. "What am I going to do?" sha said tremulously at last, for a nice girl wants to keep ber boy friends as well aa her girl Intimates. "Write and tell him you are sorry for your rudeness and will not be hate ful again." aald all tha grownups, every one of whom knew that Bob was the sort of square, alee, aensible boy friend a girl couldn't afford to lose. ;ow there are a good many daayaea tn youthful society only waiting for a chance to make boy friends feel small before others and wretched In their company. These silly, 'snippy" girls haven't the least Idea they are doing anything wrong when they guy the boy friend a opinions or Joke about hla clothea or the way he has of doing things. They Just behave like that b- cauae they have not found their baar tnga la masculine society, for every one of theaa pert glrla knowa vary well that If aba ware aa Impudently per sonal to another girl she would be dropped "for keeps, as the saying Is. They presume with the boys because they fancy they are ef coaraer fiber. whereas. If tha Impudence cornea from the girl he likes, the boy friend feels th hurt far mora deeply thaa tha girl. Ha may go or he may stay, but missy's sauciness makea him a little afraid or all the sex. And when he gets with other boya who have had about tha same experience with this girl or others, the whole gang vita upon the fallings of the aex. and the glrla get back their own -unpleasant coin in some way or other. In fact I can almost hear tha boya binding themselvea with a aolemn vow to go tha "snippy" maids on better In point of treatment. They will never escort them to dancea. They won't aak them to dance. They'll give them th grand snub at picnics. - They'll go across tha street to keep from bowing. They won't ask them for walks or visit them. They'll tell even-body how hateful they are. Are not these resolutions appalling for a girl who wants to be popular and have the nice time that other girls baveT Yet they are quit possible, and every girl who is aspiring for school pleasures will run the risk ef tha mas culine boycott If sha does not treat a boy with the respect he deserves. . I have watched a number of Oladya' little tricks and would like to tell of a few more for the benefit of other faulty girls. I have noticed that she doea not treat the old friends as nicely aa she does the new. One night Bob and Billy, hla chum, were visiting ber when two girls came In. Up Jumps Bob, like the gentleman he Is, to offer hla chair: but Billy held on to hla, too bashful or too atupld to move. Yet Miss Oladya gave her dose to the punc tilious gentleman. yy hen on of th girls refused Bob s chair the pretty hostess said with a toss of her head: "Oh, take It; he likes to think he's polite I" Then aa soon aa sha cam to know Bob's chum better, and discovered that he was organised with boahfulnees when a new girl ap peared, aba would giggle' at hla sheep lab, looka and call Bob's attention to them maybe, and make herself gener ally hateful. Now auch rude sillinesses are bad enough away from home, but when they occur under a girl's own rooftree they are little short of crimes. By such conduct a girl shows herself to be unfit for polite society, and with every new rudeness she Is weaving the boy boycott around her nntll It is like ly to become a lifetime thing. Haven't you seen th full-grown man who de tested the full-grown woman who had been cruelly rude to him aa a child? Hardened bachelors are mad in this way, and hopeless old maids; for the dear, merry boys who come around now and treat yon ao finely when you are a true-blue girl are au nusoanas In the germ. Then the nioe girls all have the best of life now, and they are gluing them selves for social importance later on. The "snippy." snubby. contemptuous ones, even if they don't mean it and Juat regard it as fun. are putting them selves, now and forever, possibly, with the people who have no tight to good social treatment. So try and never b vulgarly per sonal with the boy friend. Treat the old friends with more con sideration than tha new. Respond to a boy's politeness with equal grace and refinement. Never laugh at him and Joke him when he gives what aeems to be his serious and honest opinion of a thing. Don't alnk Into the awful and dis gusting cruelty - of discussing his clothes of his personal appearance. Don't tUt to on boy of th fallings of another. i Sacredly keep the confidences con fined to you. Let all tb boy friend think they are gentlemen and heroes until they show themselves unworthy of your good opinion. In this way a girl makea herself pop ular at the time when youthful society la necessary and she is training herself for ease with the social graces of wom anhood. Boya and- girls need to know one an other so as to get used to the great differences of character and intellect that mark the two sexes. One learns something from the other, the boy's na ture is refined and the girl's made stronger. So these youthful friendships may be made an education and a de light to both parties. At any rate, as the world atands it Is perfectly certain that there is no such thins as society for a girl If she has no boy friends. It 4s a sensible move, then, in the event of having been a little rude to the bor. to make amends at once. Large natures are never ashamed to apologize, and the boy who Is worth knowing for- Care of the Hair In Summer Time (From Southern Style Book) "It Is Impracticable to wash the hair very day to remove th ubiquitous duat.

Take two teaspoonfule three or four times a day. and you'll soon drive these impurities from th blood and clear the complexion. . Flora: The reason your scalp is dry and harsh and filled with dandruff is because of its exhausted, weakened condition. A shampoo twice a month for a time with a good head wash eoon corrects this. The most dependable thing for shampooing is plain eggol. Simply dissolve a teaspoonful of eggol In a cup of hot water; shampoo and rinse with clear water. This tends to stimulate a healthy condition of the scalp and hair follicles, overcomes dandruff and makes brittle, streaky hair soft and fluffy, restoring its nat ural color and brilliancy.
