Little Doris Is Due to Become
Brilliant Woman, Stars Anger

What do you think of this smil-
ing little girl?
Her name is Doris Margaret
Anderson and she is the daugh-
ter of Mr.. and Mrs. e. G. Ander-
son of 613 South 18th street.
She was born on January Is of
last year, and now that the first
anniversary of her birth is APP
preaching, it is surely fit that we
should ask the stars just what
her future is to be. q
Born on this date, little Doris
comes under the sign of Capricor-
nus. The stars foretell that
folks thus born should by profess
sion be successful in teaching,
and handling large moneys and
estates. The women of this sign
are brilliant, born managers,
splendid organizers of public en-
terprises and big business
schemes. The women are good
housekeepers, and are lovers of
books, literary pursuits and OBJ
jects of art. They give up much
to attain perfection as they see
it. The weeks beginning May "a
and October IA are most for
tunate, Saturday being the most
propitious day.

A "LONESOME WOMAN"
SOLVED THE PROBLEM

Dear Miss Grey: 1 have
been reading your intensely
interesting answers of consO-
latiOn, and "A Second Son"
certainly has my sympathy.
Nearly 10 months ago my
husband, daughter and my
self came here from a town
i'm the east. OF all the lone
some places on earth, L think
the most lonesome is large
city teeming with business;
but where the stranger new
er sees a face that lights up
with the smile of recognition.
That was the case with us.
But now we have become
acquainted and glad we are
here. During that lonesome
time 1 went TO the hospitals,
as you advised him, and
found so many people who
had no hope of being better
that 1 was ashamed to think
1 had been lonesome.
1 could at least go out and
walk around and had bless
ings 1 had overlooked. The
"SecOnd Son" is to be COM
mended on his choice of
acquaintance, and it will all
be right, and maybe next
Xmas he won't want to say
"Xmas gets my goat"

She is now in the hospital

she apt to break with mo
again? 1 still feel toward
her as / did before any
thing happened. Please adj
wise. G. III. G..
A.-She may know her min
better, now; or, it may simply b
the result of her illness that sh
wishes things as they We're.
You must weigh the matte
yourself and make the decision
You don't tell me why she brok
the engagement. l should thin
the result will rest on whether
or not, the obstacle is removed

Dear Miss Grey: 1 am q

been going with a girl IL,

We thought n great deal
OF each other; but Monday

when 1 get home. She has
asked me many times to give
up my position; but IL is SO
hard to get another, L don't
feel like quitting. If

quit; but 1 can't.
Now 1 have no way of
proving myself innocent;
what would you do? Please

The scarf was only a width OF

WANTS TO KNOW.

A.-The best way Is not to act
too strenuously until one knows
the reason for another's action.
1t Is just possible the young man
may have written, and the letter
miscarried.
You might write and say that
you have concluded you were too
hasty in condemning him with
out giving him a chance to eX-
plain, and are sorry if you mis-
judged him. Stop at that. Don't
be a "softie" in the matter.

Have everything ready before
you begin to mix the cake Gen
orally the yolks and whites of
the eggs are beaten separately
the baking powder or soda is
sifted with the flour; the butter
Is rubbed until smooth. Then
the sugar is added and stirred
until creamy.
If the baking is to be done on
coal range be sure to have the
fire right to last through the
baking. If a gas range is used
keep an eye on the temperature
SO that it does not get hot
enough to burn the cake.
When the butter and sugar
are creamed, add the beaten
yolks. Then put in the milk and
flour alternately until all are in.
Beat the batter next until the
grain is fine and light, and fold
in the whites OF the eggs. If
fruit is used add 1t the last thing.
