SOCIAL LAWS FOR GIRLS

You think the laws Of society are
severe. You do not believe that con
ventiOnallty is great sword held
up, not to strike you, but to protect
you, and you shrug your pretty
shoulders and say, 81 know | was
doing nothing wrong, and [ don's
care what people say.n Now, nv
dear, you must care what people
say the world is great Judgment
court, and usually the innocent and
the Ignorant are protected by it,
though occasionally, some one fall
Ing into the mire of scandal and
gossip, is brought into the court
all bedraggled and disfgured, and
the judge, not being able to see
the virtue that is underneath, de.
cldes against the victim, and all
because she did not care what the
world said. l wish you would think
even OF the most innocent things.
Sometimes | fear you think am
little bit severe, but have known
so many girls who were so thought
less, yet so good, and who only
found protection in the sword of
cOnventionality. 1t may hang over
your head, as did that of Dam0cles,
but it is as a warning. It will pro,
tect you from evil,speaking, from
the making of injudlciOus friends.
and it will insure you much more
pleasure than if all the world ran
heltcr-skelter and became like a
wild Irish fair day. COnventionality
protects you, as does the best moth
er, frowning at and forbidding not
that which is, but also that which
looks wrong. Ruth Asemore, in

THE ADVOCATE NOT UNDER
A NEW PILOT.

Mr.. Editor -
So many persons have asked me
whether the pilot" was the sue.
cesSOr to the "AdvOcate," that
have wondered why the question
should be asked, unless the name
Of Fl. 2. Williams appears as one
Of the prOprie .Ors and because the
fact that a copy has been sent at
least to every subscriber Of the
"Advocate' whom | have met.
account for this only on the ground
that my subscription list was sur.
reptiti0asly used for that purpose.
Therefore, l trust no person Will be
induced to subscribe to the "PllOtn
because Of any presumed c0nnec-
ton that [ have with it. If they
patrOnize it let them do so on its
merits. Meanwhile the Advocate"
will shortly appear on a new foot
ing and speak for itself, but not by
the ''PilOt.'
[ thank you for the courtesy of
your columns to
