CYNTHIA GREY'S
:: LETTERS ::

Dear Miss Grey: / am a
young man 20 years old, and
have a steady position in q
hardware store. / am only
getting $12 q week, but the
promise of $14 the first of
the year. Would you advise
me to get married on that?
I'm very much In love
with a nice girl. She thinks
a great deal of me, too. But
there is another fellow try
ing to get her away from
me, and I am afraid II I
don't marry her now I will
lose her. Oh, / feel I cannot
give her up, and yet I would
like to be a little older, and
have better wages before I
marry. Dear Miss Grey,
give me your best advice.
I'm so sick at heart I don't
know what to do. Yours,
IN TROIJRI,E.

Alt the girl Is not sensible
or care enough about you now to
wait, do you think you can hold
her after marriage? Think about
that. Your decision as to wheth-
or or not you marry ON $12 Q
week depends much ON you and
the girl. I have known people
to have not $40 after paying the
preacher, and each be economical,
and in . few years be pretty well
fixed. II the girl knows some
thing Of household economy, and
neither Of you are scatterers Of
coin, you may get along all right
by working hand I'm hand; but II
either Is the least extravagant,
you would better wait Young
people should curb their feelings
long enough to look 1t the sonsi-
BILE side once I'm awhile. But
never marry . girl to keep anoth-
or from getting her. or you may
wish later thnt he had gotten
her. Tell her Of your love II you
