doubt her. One Saturday night had a date with her and neglected to set the time. How ever, l thought she was accustomed to me, so I called at 80 and she was not at home. Her mother said that she went to visit girl friend. and not expecting me until o'clock, said she would call up home at that time, so I could know where she was. Thereupou her mother called this said friend up and she was not there. Then I went uptown and accidentally across her. Then took her home, and she said it was all my fault be- cause I had not set the time. Do you really think it was?
 "One Sunday l made a date for the next| Sunday evening, and as we live in different| towns and do not get to see her very often l told her if anything happened to prevent my coming to let me know by mail I wasl much surprised to get a letter from her saving that she expected friends from out of town| that evening, and, I might not enjoy n.y. self, had better not call that evening Now, l am considered by my friends to be rather shrewd. in society, and this naturally hurt my feelings. Nevertheless. happened in her town that evening and learned indirectly that she had friends there at all.

to be able to keep them I entertain a great deal. Being an only child I have nearly everything l want but as soon as introduce my boy friends to other girls seem to lose them. Do you think that it's because I in- vite them too often. Sometimes I keep them two years, then they leave me- It looks as If they just want me for the good time give them The girls, too, never call on me or en- certain me, but always accept my invitations Kindly advise what you would do Some of my friends say l run after people too much One of my girl friends got several showers through me when she was married as I felt sorry for her, she had so few friends Now she never comes near me, only on invitation"
 Don't invite them any more if that's the way they treat you.

in the Clothes of Man. "

In his quest for the unwary girl on whom he hopes to fasten his sponge claws this para site prowls about in many guises.
 He appears as the fellow who feels in his empty pockets only to be reminded that to- morrow is pay day, and that unless he works a little graft today he must go without lunch con It isn't just bad luck with him or his male co-workers would respond to his request for little money to tide him over. Among the men he has such a reputation dead beat that he could not get cent. And then he thinks to call up a girl friend of his who works downtown.
 He tells her he has not seen her for so long that he wondered if she would not take lunch con with him. She accepts Going up in the elevator he gives vent to an exclamation, and with well rehearsed embarrassment fesses that he forgot to get the money from the cashier that was due him.
 He asks her if she could loan him s, and he will mail her a check when he returns to the office. She gladly helps him out of his awkward position But he forgets to mail the check and immediately proceeds to forget the girl. Next time he is without lunch money he takes good care to call up another girl

~ ONE one has said that this is an age
 of grafters. Every day we read in the A0 papers of the political grafter There
 are men who even graft on our health with imitation foodstufs, and the pure food commissioners have revealed them to us. Other men through malicious graft acquire great private holdings.
 But the lowest. meanest grafter in human form is he who practices his willy art in any of it's ugly shapes through the heart of an unsuspecting, sweet young girl.
 The heart of girl is a sacred thing t was never intended as an instrument to De played on in connection with the game of graft
 It is because the heart of unsuspecting maid is so full of love and trust and faith in humanity that she is blind to the awful want of manhood in the fellow whose love interest in her rests entirely on q mercenary basis.

very life blood that long hours and constant application of the girl who has to earn her own bread demands.
 The man who robs such girl of the hat or shoes or dress that same money might have brought her is a ghoul-the lowest thing in human form. He would steal the pennies from dead mans eyes.
 He is thief. He steals the girls afec- ton as we'll as her money. He is traitor, because he must accompany his touch for a g., or $10 bill with ardent lovemaking.

he wanted to study medicine but did not have enough money to put him through school. And was so happy that I had a little money left to me by my grandmother.

With a girl of loving, trusting nature the heart is often more apt to rule than the head. And that 8 why she is led on by the willy loyemaker to entrust to him loans of money, aye, and even her heart.

After !" Good Enfs" Moi Girl

After Good Eais," Not Girl.
 Again, there is the fellow who under pre- text of paying court to the daughter of the house comes every Sunday night to tea, and as many other nights during the week as he can possibly secure an invitation When hls chums laughingly chide him about the girl he boastingly asserts that it is not the girl he is after but the good 'eats y he gets at her house.
 The men who marry girls for their money are love grafters in the most exaggerated form. To win the spirited daughter of the rich they must pay court in lavish style. ii the aspirant for her hand has no money theul he must pay court in lavish declaration of afl fections.
 In choosing a husband the girl should led her heart and head rule equally. If this wereI done in every case the girl who is about to| be married for her money would have but to| look around her to see in almost every easel where wives are supporting their husbands, that very little affection and no gratitude Isl their return.
 The reason for this is that the right sort| of man could not live on woman's money.
 The woman who lends money to man| thinking it will bind him to her by ties of| gratitude and appreciation makes big mis- take. Instead the very obligation that the man is put~under fills him with a dislike- even a hate-for her And again beceuse bo is the wrong sort of man he will use the girl as a target for unpleasant comment. He will go about bragging that she Is an easy mark '' that can be worked with little fattery and little lovemaking.
 Twere a thousand times better for a girl never to have known beau than to cultivated one that would allow her to pay his way.

 Then there is the fellow who comes to take girl out in the evening to some place of amusement. He payes his way into her af- fections with such flattering remarks as: :" Marjorie, you look stunning this evening"" Il have never seen you looking wel' When they reach the theater door excitedly he withdraws his hands from his empty pock- cts with By jove, I forgot to transfer my money from the pockets of my other trous- ers " The girl, suspecting that she is but one of dozens on whom this deadbeat has effectively worked plausible enough excuse, begs to help him out.

Such a fellow is parasite. And when girl discovers in him the first symptoms of this parasitical germ she should cast him out of her life and out of her heart as she would cast out afflicted with leprosy. He IS even more loathsome than the leper. Because he alone is responsible for his opprobrium.
