BY Mrs. Elizabeth Thompson

Dear Mrs. Thompson:3 am dead in
love with young man one year my
junioE. He says he loves me and can
not live without me. But when I go
out with him and my chum and her
friend, he always let's the other fellow
foot the bills. This gives me the i'm
preston that he is stingy.
Would you advise me to marry him ?
He wants to get married next year.
My guardian says he is not good
enough for me, but love him.
ANXIOUS SUE.
He seems to be an unusually thrifty
young man. However, if he had any
pride, he would want to stand his
share of the expense. Better wait a
while before deciding to marry him.
Look around and see if you can't
fall in love with some man who doesn't
sponge on anybody.
Dear Mrs. Thompson: I am in love
with a young man and he said sew
eral times he loved me and also pro-
posed to me twice, but l refused,
though I loved him. Now he is very
friendly if he meets me, but never
comes to the house any more. I really
would like to have him call again,
but am too Independent to ask him.
How can win him back without his
knowledge?
When walking behind a couple of
firemen in uniform the other day, a
very pretty girl came from the op-
posite way. When she approached
them one said in a very ungeutle-
manly way: Hello, sweetheart" She
b!ushed and walked straight ahead.
Are all firemen known as fiirts? I've
heard so much about them.
CONSTANT READER.
How many times did you expect
him to propose to you before letting
him know that you care for him? He's
probably tired of 1t now. Invite him
to tea some evening, and make things
So pleasant for him (without being
sentimentaD that he'll want to come
f.gain. If he doesn't come make up
your mind he doesn't want to, and
try to love somebody else.
The fireman was not very gentle
manly. He probably just wanted to
be funny. AS a rule, firemen are brave
and honest men.
Dear Mrs. Thompson: 0)-How
can l overcome bashfulness? l am
II. but very backward when men
folks are around. This is embarras-
sing, especially to see other girls carry
on a conversation with them. (2)-
What would be a good trade for girl
to learn? ANXIOUS.
1)-Read the newspapers and in
form yourself generally, SO that you
will be able to talk about matters of
general interest. Lead the men on to
talk about themselves and listen care
fully. Forget about yourself-they're
really not thinking as much about you
as they do OF themselves.
C2)-You can make money at any
of the good oId-fashioned occupations
for women If you will perfect yourself
in one of them-sewing, cooking.
nursing, housekeeping, etc.
Dear Mrs. Thompson: What is good
for aching feet? Mine hurt terribly
iust as soon as the weather warm up.
