He gives me nice presents. Sometimes

get very cross with him, as he seems to
want to accompany me everywhere

Miss Doom, give me your advice and
tell me is it because he is really in love
with me or is he Jealous? He has asked
me to marry him many times, but |
do not want to get married so soon.
ANXIOUS.
1t is evident that he cares for you
very much. He is a little unreasonable
in wanting to go with you wherever
you go. Tell him hat such jealousy is
hardly fair and that you do not want
to marry right away. a plain, sensible
talk will no doubt change his views a
great deal. / do not see why you should
be cross when he pays you marked at
tention, unless you do not care for him.
Do you? If you do not, it is best to
break the friendship completely.

HE TREATS HER COLBY.
Ny Dear Miss Doom:

My Dear Miss Doom:
I am a young girl II years of age, and
have been going with a young man Is
years of age for one year. At first he
gave me many reasons that made me
think he loved me, but a short time
ago he moved away, and whenever l
see him now he does not greet me, but
walks on as though he never knew me.
When my girl friend asks him whether
he sees me very often he answers in a
| sad tone that he hasn't seen me for a
long time. Will you please tell me
whether you think he loves me and do
you think it proper for me to ask him
why he is so cold to me of late? When
L tell him that he doesn't treat me as
nice as he should he becomes very
angry ANXIOUS.
Probably he is offended at some
thing you have done, and does not
care to explain. You are both very
young to think seriously of love. 1
would not worry about his seeming in
difference if 1 We're you. 1t would be
better to forget all about him. Above
all things do not ask him why he is
not as nice as he used to be. You
will get better results by pretending
not to notice or care.

When the hair falls out, or gets dry;
when 1t is too oily, and when the head
perspires too freely, you may be sure
there is something wrong with the cir
culation, which can best be remedied by
massage. The first movement of sue

hair and part it in the centre. Place

Repeat this operation all ove the head
