San Francisco. Cal. July 90, 1910.
Dear Miss Black am young girl,
quite amiable, but of course there are
! times when I have some words with my
girl friends. but it makes me so un-
happy when 1 am not friends with
everybody that 1 cannot rest until 1
| have made up, or at least done my part
by going TO the person and trying to
fix the trouble up.
Now, some of my girl friends say I
have no spunk, and that 1 should go
! along all the whole not noticing the per
son with whom, partly through my own
fault, L have had some words
After l have made up l feel a differ
ent person entirely. and life is far hap
pier than before. And 1 want TO ask
you If by going and doing my best TO
straighten matters out 1 have beIittled
myself before her. but. rather. don't
you think 1 did right in going 10 her?
Perhaps she thought the same as I did,
but did not care 20 come 10 me first.
If you can spare the time I would
love to have you write few lines about
what you think of the word girls call
"spunk." and whether II brings happi-
ness or misery.
Thanking you for any advice, 1 am
your devoted admirer. E. Lacey
Dear Girl-Don't you think for one
minute of trading that sweet disposition
of yours for a single grain Of what
some ill-tempered, spiteful little goose
loves to call "spunk"
Well. yet your friends go on being
''spunky" and spiteful and unforgiving
and self important-and miserabIe-and
you go on being good hundred and
sweet tempered and loving and forgiv-
ing-and happy.
You have so much the best of the
bargain that you can't help feeling sor-
ry for your "spunky" friends when you
come to think Of IT.

| girl who, with heart overflowing with
romance, pours out her soul in a letter
which few years later she would scorn
to write.
No Excuse for Such Letters.
But there is no excuse for the married
woman who writes reams of foolish
nonsense to an 1syearold boy. The
sweet boy" whom she addressed al
ternately as "Siegfried," Honey Lamb. -
''Darlint" and 'Ruzzie Lamb" has
grown to mans estate and sues his
''Brunhilde" for $4,000. Which it must
be confessed is quite cOmedown from
the heights of frenzied romance.
The only saving grace about an cpl
sode of this kind is the lesson which
it may teach to the girls and women
who read the published letters.
1t may teach them the FOLLY of writ
ing such letters.
Love is not indicated by the mere
writing down on paper OF lot of high
flown nonsense. Anyone can do that
sort of thing it is the mere stringing
together of extravagant expressions
which really mean nothing at all.
If Russell Griswold loved Mrs Smith,
as he says he did, he would not be
suing her for $4,000 for breach of
PROMISE
Disgusting When a Man Sues
1t is undignified and degrading
enough when woman sues a man for
breach of promise; but when q man
sues a woman, there are no words to
express the contemplate situation.
In the letters. said to, have been
penned by Mrs. Smith,. the author vows
eternal love for the 1Syearold boy.
+ woman can have a thorough liking
and affection Tor a boy of that age. but
she cannot love him with the love she
would give a husband.
Anything but extreme youth would
have revolted at the type of letter
written. 1t takes old age or youth to
stand the baby talk" mushy type of
letter.
Girls, do take advantage of this lesson
taught by these ridiculous letters. All

LEGAL SERVICE TO HOUSE.
Mr.. WOrthingtOn Was Not Counsel
10 Joint Committee on Printing.

W eaA
In a brief report in this paper Of the
prolonged debate in Committee Of the
Whole House, on Friday. on an amend
ment 10 the general deficiency bill TO
pay $500 for legal services TO the House
in the suit OF the Valley Paper Company,
plaintiff, against the Joint Committee on
Printing OF Congress. il was enormously
stated that A s. Worthington acted as
counsel in the case Mr.. Worthington
had no connection with 1t.
The amendment offered by Chairman
Tawney. which led to the debate. was
as follows:
To pay George f. Hamilton and John ". Ysrkss
for services as counsel to the members Of the House
Of Representatives of the Joint Committee on Print
ing in the suit Of the Valley Paper Company plain
tiff. against the Joint Committee on Printing Of
Congress- respondents. $500
Mr.. Stafford, Mr.. Clayton, Mr. Madden.
and Mr. James opposed the amendment,
holding that the fee was excessive, while
Mr.. Cooper, of Pennsylvania; Mr. Mann,
OF Illinois, Mr.. Norris. and others de-
Tended the right Of the Committee on
Printing TO employ counsel emphasized
the Importance of the question involved,
and held that the fee was not. in view Of
all the circumstances, excessive. In the
course of his remarks, Mr.. Mann said:

that they were only there for day They were

The chairman of the Committee OF the

amendment.

THRoNGs SEEING IRELAND.
Every Steamship Lands Hundreds
on the Emerald Soil.

Gerald Mahoney, well-known writer
in Cork. sends the following to the Irish
Home going Association:
THE indications that we are TO have
record numbers in tourist travel from
America this year seem TO be verified
by the throng on every steamship calling
at Queenstown. AS many as 54S passen-
gers landed here last evening, and they
came from all parts of the States as far
west as California
The call of home which the Irish
Home going Association started last year
has begun TO have effect, and while
some have come 10 our shores purely in
pursuit Of health-giving holiday, others
but they are far the fewest IN number
have come TO stay They are the people
who made enough, and have bade fare
well TO the work stage made over their
work to younger representatives of our
race who are better fitted for the struggle
than the pioneers"
