A Lovers Quarrel.
Dear Miss Doom:

Dear Miss Doom:
I am IS years of age, and | have
been engaged to a young man for the
last two years. He is o ~ years my
senior. We quarrel quite often. He
acts very cool and independent n
speaks as though he would not care
if we parted. He never used to act
that way. Would you kindly advise
me what I'could do to make him diff
ferent, as l feel broke hearted. Do
you think he is tired of me? Hoping
YOU will give me your good advice, l
remain, BROKEN-HEARTED.
If you find that you both no longer
agree and you think that the young
man is growing tired of you, the best
plan is to frankly ask him If he is tired
of you and tell him you are willing to
release him from he engagement. Per-
haps if ycu do not see each Sther for
a while you will have an opportunity
to find out how much you do care for
each other. Avoid all misunderstood
ing if possible.

Twelve homing pigeons belonging TO
Alex Buchanan of GAINESVILLE were
sent to the local express agent, ID. g.
Nc Duffie, yesterday morning to be
liberated in order to ascertain the time
it would take the birds to return home.
They were given their freedom back
of the high school at 80 and after
encircling the high school building
several times started in a westward
direction. They arrived at their home
in GAINESVILLE at 1882, the journey TAX
ing two hours and half. Mr.. Nc
Duffie received a telegram from James
vile at 2:2O yesterday afternoon asking
at what time the pigeons had been
freed as they had not yet arrived.
The birds undoubtedly did not take
a straight homeward course as better
time than this has often been made.
The distance from this city TO James
willie is about 80 miles. 1t usually re-
quires some time for the birds 10 fly
