He Does Not Return Her Love.
Dear MargarY Doom:

Dear Margery Doom:
Please give me your advice about
what to do. I know a young man ]
love very much, but he does not return
my love; that is, I do not think he
does, because l have not seen him for
two months. though he does not 90

he could stay away that long If he
cared anything for me?
ANXIOUS.
I think you are right in %supposins
that he does not care for you. If he
does he has a very poor way Of show
ing 1t. 1 would try to forget all about
him If I were you, unless he begins to
show you marked attention. You have
not told me whether you separated be-
cause of a quarrel or not, so I cannot
advise your further.

THE PALM FOR NEW YORK.

This is not q difficult problem to
answer. Why should not the New
York sister dress better? Just count
the many advantages she has over our
sisters. In the first place, wages are
better, the shopping district is greater
and wearing apparel is bought in such
immense bulk that the prices are much
cheaper and you have a great variety
to select from at moderate rates. If we
were to investigate we would find tina.
a great many of our best dressed bust
ness women in Newark hold positions
in New York and do all of their buy
ing there. Our Newark women in all
stations of life are neat and dress with
refinement, but New York women are
tn best dressers, not better only than
Newark, but of other large cities.

How sun.hir. Warm. v..

The effect of the suns rays is do
termined by two circumstances
the length of time during which
they act continuously and their di-
rection. When the sun is farthest
from the earth, as is the case in
summer, it is daily above the hori-
zon for a much longer time than it
is when nearest, as at the winter
solstice. This continuous action in
tensifies the heat. and, the nights be-
ing short, but little Of the heat is
given off during the suns absence.
In summer again the suns rays
reach us in more vertical direc-
ton, and, the days being longer than
the nights, more heat is absorbed
than radiated. In winter, the sun
ascending to less elevation, the
rays reach us more obliquely, and,
the days being much shorter, the re-
suit is that more heat is radiated
than absorbed.
