days conference of the railroad con-
ductors of the Rock Island which was
held in Engineers hall in the Rey-
nolds block on Fifth avenue and Elm
street, was concluded. The confer

senting every division of the Rock

his love from me?
(2) I have been expecting an en-
gagement ring from him for the long
est time. Do you think l would do
wrong If l kind OF limited around for
it? TROUBLED.
% 4 little Jealous, are you. my
dear? And perhaps you have shown
that you are. But if you really think
he cares more for the other girl than
for you, be just as cool to him as he
is to you and let her have him. You
wouldn't be happy one minute II you
tried to hold him without his wanting
very much to be held.
(2) II you are not engaged to him
you should not expect an engagement
ring. It would be very bad taste to
hint about wanting one. An engage,
ment ring isn't necessary to happiness
II he speaks about II, ask him If he
doesn't think it would be wiser to give
you some inexpensive little token and
put most of the money into furniture
fo- your future home.
Dear Mrs. Thompson: have a beau
tiful pair of white linen canvas shoes

car be dyed or changed to a black OF
tan? ANNIE.
You can blacken them with two OF
three coats of ordinary black shoe
dressing They can also be painted
v it'll stencil paints, any color desired
But why not keep them white? White
canvas shoes are worn just as muct
as ever.
