DEAR MISS FAIRFAX:
l am twenty and am engaged to
a man six years my senior. He is
in a position where he is compelled
to work more nights than days. He
could give me a good home, but he
has promised to give me things
which l never received, and he also
told me some things, which l found
out to be the untruth. Would you
advise me to marry him?
FORGET ME-NOT
You do not love him, I am sure, an,
neither do you trust him. No assurance
Of a good home and the protection o
a husband will bring happiness wher'
there is neither confidence nor love.

FACE MARRIED BY BURNS
GIVEN ITS NATURAL FORM
Surgeon Performs an Operation
Which Recreates Child's
Mouth and Chin.

BALTIMORE. May 2s.-After many
weeks of treatment. the rebuilding Of q
little girls chin and the restoration Of
her mouth after they had been terribly
distorted by burns have been completed
at hospital here.
The child's mother had offered all the
flesh necessary for grating. but the sur
geon decided on another plan.
A large flap OF flesh was cut from the
child's abdomen. one side being left at
tached to the body. Then a slit was
made in the arm of the patient sufficient
IL large TO allow the insertion of the
raised end of the flesh on the abdomen.
This was done 10 establish circulation in
the abdominal flesh.
After weeks that part of the flesh at
tacned to the abdomen was cut and
the child's arm with the flap of flesh
growing To it was raised and the part
domen was now joined to the lips and
chin. from which the scared flesh had
been cut.
When circulation had been established
the child's arm was cut from her chin
and allowed 10 return TO its normal
place.
The new flesh was now attached 10
the chin. small hole had been cut in
the new flesh to allow the child to be fed.
Later a mouth was cut in the mass OF
flesh and then the chin was rounded out.
IL is only upon close examination that
the new chin can be discovered.

in the New York law.
England has an Inheritance tax in the
shape of what is known as death duties
During a ten-year period they yielded
about $SO.OO0O00 a year. the property
passing under them having been valued
at upward of s11 1000. 100000. Experience
has shown in England that estates pass
on an average once in thirty years. 1t
is the view of the English authorities
that the death duties are practically a
form of supertaN on big estates. and
that they help to carry out the general
plan of graduating taxes to the ability
of the taxpayers to meet them.
IT is thought to be improbable that
Congress will include any tax on Inherit
ances i'm the proposed income tax law.
Most of the leaders feel that in the end
ii would amount to a sort of double tax
alton, and that, at an. rate, the states
have nea1ly all adopted inheritance tax
laws. which would make national in
heritance tax law interfere with state hs-
cal problems in an unsatisfactory way.
But whether Congress shall include such
tax or not, either upon personal prop
erty or upon real property or upon both,
the fact remains that the taxing tend
ency of the lesding nations is in the di-
rection of using the inheritance tax as a
method of enriching the public treasury
