By Sarah Comstock 1 CERTAIN young stenographer by name Miss Enid Wentworth fair the dewy morn as he bud upon the hawthorn bough as all the other similes that have- been precipitated from tine im memorial by various poets' favorite hr. ads has done far more than create ripple in a pond.

She has in fact. made a splash in the Atlantic ocean a splash that started from the coast of her native Lnglanei and has reached all the way across to us over here. From lip to lip is passing the tale of he fair Enid and her Thirty Lovers. To have been engaged to every male member of an office staff thirty in number and to wind up by marrying the head of the firm is to have achieved an amorous maidens fondest hope. The fact that she has ac lll1lplished this feat at the age of twent- six shows a promptness of aclion an in tinct for.

efficiency a power of nwbllza lion and a general executive ability that makes one wonder who will eventual really be bead of the inn Miss Enid has since the age of sweet six teen held a position as stenographer to a British business concern. Ten years of steady work have made her expert with the shorthand notebook and the typewriters keyboard. But for that matter almost any reasonably intelligent girl becomes expert after such years of experience. As a typist it has been said merely that she was a goo I one. But as fair servitor at the shrine' of Venlus genius was hers.

Rarely does a maiden so awaken the yearning of ever poetic masculine soul and never since Helen of Troy and Cleopatra has one been known to manage the business of her al fairs so skllfully. Any other maiden would have succumbed long dote she reached the head of the firm.

The natural wave of hair would indicate a certain liveliness of temperament vividness originally traits that belong to the artist. And surely Miss Enid has proved herself a Supreme artist Only the Helens and decs of history can compute with her in the practice of the divine art of loving Other hints of the artistic temperament lie in the long lashes vetting dreaming es the delicate oval of outline full but sensi live chlselleJ lips the soft contours of face and throat.
