Because he walks with you and tells
your friends that he likes your ways
is no reason why you should think he

any reason why he should not become
engaged to some one else. He would
not be obliged to tell you about it ull-
less you were a very particular friend.

heartbroken. If he cares more for

HIS ENGLISH is POOR.

Dear Miss Doom:
1 have read all of your kind advice
to young folks in trouble, and l think
that it is all very good and 1 thought I
would write mine:.
I am a young lady, 10 years of age,
and am keeping company with a young
man five years my senior for the past
year. He has told me how much he
loves me, and l in return love him, but
the only thing in the way now is all my
friends are laughing at me for going
with him because he isn't as well edu"
Gated as l am, and doesn't speak very
good English. / am heartbroken about
it. If you will kindly give me your
kind advice, you will greatly relieve my
mind. HEARTBROKEN.
You are very foolish to pay atten-
tion to any such nonsense, and l think
if you really cared for the man you
would not let the matter of his educa-
tion bother you. If the young man Is
deserving of your love in every other
way, il you are sure that he will make
you a good husband. don't let a little
thing like his form of English deter
you. Why not point out his errors to
him and help him remedy them? If
he knows you have his interest at
heart he will understand and will take
your corrections.

Too much cannot be said about the
care of the hands, since it is, or should
be, the aim of every woman to possess
pretty, soft hands. with well tapered,
manicured fnger-nails. Many women
are of the opinion that pretty nails
cannot be obtained without the aid of
a professional manicure, but this is not
so. All that is required is a few in
expensive implements and a little care
in handling them.
The nails should first be soaked in
lukewarm soapy water, to which has
been added q few dro~fs of lemon Juice.
Shape the nails with a cuticle scissors
that comes for the purpose, and push
back the cuticle from the nail with
an orange wood stick, taking care not
to bruise the nail. After the nail has
been shaped. file the edges with a fine
file to procure a smooth edge. If there
be any istains or discolorations on Nthe
nails take them off. with the orange
wood stick. Never use the file or scis-
sors to clean under the nail. unless you
want to mark them with the disfigur-
ing little white 1ecks which are usually
the result of the use of a steel instru-
ment. Polish the nails with a chamois
buffer to give them the required lustre.
Five minutes time every day will be
sufficient to bestow on the nails, and
the result will be pretty shell-like
finger tips so much desired by the we'll

Try how she could. however, it was
sometimes very difficult to keep her
temper, and the constant unnecessary
~fault-fnding to which she was sub
jected vas scarcely calculated to i'm
prove the girls disposition, only, as it
happened, Patty's will was a strong
one, and she was determined to re-
member that granny had been very
good to her, working hard to bring
her up respectable and give her a fair
modicum of education, and that she
must in her urn put up with her
now that she was old and unable to
fend for herself. 1t was, perhaps, more
duty than love that impelled Patty to
this practise, for love is apt to be speed
lily dried up when very constant drains
are made at its fount.
There, Granny, and the toast is
lovely-real pork dripping; see, I've cut
all the crust. and I'll eat it myself. You
will enjoy your tea this blessed sab
bath, l do believe
Patty's fresh young voice was like q
breeze of ozone even without her CHEEKY
words. and if the old would
only have deigned to throw off her
mask, she would have acknowledged
it, for she loved the girl dearly, not
withstanding her constant grumbling.
She ate up her toast greedily, and drank
the sweet tea, in which she only in
dulged on Sundays, without apparently
noticing that Patty's crusts were dry,
for she had reserved the only remain
ing piece of dripping for Granny's neXt
piece. She was just preparing it with
much care when a knock came at the
door, n two neighbors asked admit
lance for a Sunday chat.
Old Mrs. Urske never told anything
about her own affairs. but she was
always glad to listen to those of other
people, and Patty, as a rule. welcomed
strangers because they generally put
the old lady in a good humor. But she
was not quite so pleased to see these
people as she might have been, since
they were Joe Marks and his mother,
who was an especial crony of Mrs.
Urske.
Patty had a suspicion that Joe Marks
was making up to her, and that Granny
encouraged it. and as her ambition led
her far beyond the humble position of
Mr.. Joe Marks, she never saw him
come across the threshold without re-
GREETING that she happened to be at
home, since she was compelled to be
civil to him i'm her own house. In the
factory, when they came in contact, she
was very offhand, always refusing Joe's
little attentions if he wanted to see
her home, carry her implements, or
render her any small assistance. But
she did not meet him often, as the men
and women worked in different rooms,
and even entered the building by diff
ferent doors.
Thought we'd look in and see how
you be doing this bright evening. Mrs.
Urske, said Mrs. Marks, as she sat
down. and Patty poured out some tea.

Much damage may be done to silver
or electro spoons and forks if they are
carelessly used. An excellent plan for
their preservation is to make bags in
the following way:
Lay half a dozen forks in a row and
cut a strip Of green baize a little longer
than what is required to cover them.
The width of the strip should be DOT
BILE the length of the fork. Take the
selvedge edge lengthways. and fold to
meet the centre of the strip, scanning
at both ends. This makes a long en-
yelope. Machine this with rows of
stitching at regular intervals to form
little pockets. A fork is then inserted
in each, and the surplus baize is fold
ed over toward the centre, covering the
forks, II the whole thing is rolled up
