Dear Margery Doom:
l am a girl of 20 and went with a
young man for a few weeks, 1 liked
his company. He is living in Brook
lyng near Sheepshead Bay, but he never
told me his address. l would like to
write to him, Do you think I'm case |
would write to the Mayor of Brooklyn
to look through the directory IL he
could find his address? Kindly let me
know how l will find his address.
A CONSTANT READER.
If the young man is not Interested
in you to the extent of letting you hear
from him, l think you would be foolish
to try to locate him. Would advise
you to forget him. But If you insist
upon finding him, why don't you try
looking through the directory your
self?

HE ESCORTS ANOTHER HOME.

Dear Miss Doom;
l am a young lady and am very
friendly with a young man whom 1
dearly love. He has taken me to sew
eral entertainments and l have met
him very often at social gatherings,
from which he has always taken me
home. But as often as he has enter
tanned me he has never told me whether
lie had any love for me. There is an
other girl whom he has taken homo
from social gatherings to which / have
not gone. VIII you please give me your
advice and let me know if there Us any
hope for me. Nj S.
Be content with his friendship until
you know him better. He must like
you a great deal, or he would not pay
you so much attention. Some day he
might realize that he loves you.

you to marry him if he were not serious.
Aside from that, do not you think you

i After the hair has been carefully
shampooed and dried the woman who
wishes for healthy, beautiful hair
should spend five minutes in vigorous
massage of the scalp to give it exer-
else and induce good circulation, and
thus promote the growth. Begin as in
the illustration, going over the entire
scalp and moving in all directions, until
the scalp is fairly glowing. Do this
every night after shaking the hair, and
brushing it thoroughly. Five minutes
each day spent thus will do wonders
toward giving strength to the roots OF
the hair. 1t will also do away with
n irritation which is often felt, and
will help to drive away any dandruff
lurking about.
