There was fireplace. a couple

Can you brandish the sword?"
asked the foals as soon as they
were all inside.

he said that it would take the

believed He is doing by the be-

FRECKLES
Don't Hide Them With a Veil
Remove Them With the
Othine Prescription.

This prescription for the re-
moval of freckles was written by
a prominent physician and is usu-
ally so successful in removing
freckles, and giving a clear, beau
tiful complexion that it is sold by
the Grown Drug Co. under an abb
solute guarantee to refund the
money if it fails.
Don't hide your freckles under
veil; get an ounce of othine and
remove them. Even the first few
applications should show a won
derful improvement, some of the
lighter freckles vanishing en-
tirely.
Be sure to ask the druggist for
the double strength othine; it is
this that is sold on the money
back guarantee.

LULU AND LILLY.

Al should say not. You
ought to be placed under some
sensible persons care until you
are old enough to know the A B
C's of common sense.
Girls, how can you be so blind?
How can you be deaf to the walls
and repentent tears of your sis
tiers who have been hurled over
the steep precipice of shame and
remorse as a result of making
chance acquaintances, meeting
them and clipping with them.
Yours is case of pure parental
carelessness and lack of home
training. If your parents were
doing their duty they would see
that you were home in the even
ing and not meeting fellows after
the show. What you need to do
is to report such men to a protec-
tive officer.
The Tacoma times. [volume] (Tacoma, Wash.) 1903-1949, 1913-06-27

Al am in sympathy with
some of your views; but do not
agree with you when you state
that our marriage laws should be
abolished. l admit, they might
be improved upon in certain re-
spects. but to do away with them
would be to undo the work of
civilization.

Blind to the Danger.
Dear Miss Grey: We are
two girls of IS and Ii. A
couple of nights ago we met
two actors after the show.
We are quite sure we love
them very much. They said
they would take us to Paris,
London, Berlin and all
around, and promised us nice
clothes, and said they would
get us on the stage. They
want us to meet them i'm
their rooms when we are
ready to eolpe.
Please Miss Grey, would
you elope with them il you
were us?
