away from them at last. YOU'RE

make this honeymoon something
to remember. I've got that thou
sand dollars the firm gave me

Mother and father say they

Dick, "and while I did not have
time enough to look over THAT
JUNK carefully that was sent us
as WEDDING PRESENTS / am
sure we have almost enough, ex-
cept the kitchen stove, to furnish
a home right now"

timidly.
"Your Uncle Dick must have

CHAPTER V.
After we had gotten on the
train on our way to Niagara Falls,
which 1 had never seen, and
shaken the rice out of our be-
longings, Dick said:
Say, Madge, what do you think
of stopping at South Bend? You
look as though you were ABSO-
LUTELY TAGGED. We're not
going to break the record for fast
travelling. We're just going
somewhere to have good time
and get away from that mob at
home"
''Dut our tickets are through
to Buffalo," I demonstrated.
THAT can be easily fixed" said
Dick, as he started to hunt up
the conductor. In few minutes
it was all arranged and | could not
help thinking how RESOURCE
Full DICK WAS. / would never
have questioned if my tickets read

to go there without a stop.

will want something to say about
how IL shall be furnished.

Dear Miss Grey: have
very dear friend who is In
trouble. She fell in love with
supposed man. He left the
state, and In a short time
sent her car fare to come
where he was, saying he
would marry her as noon as
she would arrive.
When she came he said he
couldn't marry her that day,
and he took her to his home.
She has lived with him six
months, I am sorry to say.
Every time she asks when he
is going to marry her he says
he don't know, maybe some
day. Can she make him
marry her and Is she en-
titled to some of his money?
Thanking you for your an
swer.-A Constant Reader.
A.-The man is unprincipled,
of course. but the time has come
when women must make up their
minds that they are responsible
for their own actions. When they
come to the point where they will
remain true to themselves, where
they will, when trapped as this
woman was, eat out of garbage
cans rather than submit to treach-
cry; where they will die first,
then they will be virtuous indeed.
Your friend could have washed
dishes, she could have gone to the
y. w. O. A. or the Salvation
Army, anything rather than sell
herself. She may be able to conf
pei the man to marry her; but
to me marriage of that sort Is
nothing more nor less than legal
ized prostitution. I can't see how
she can think of 1t, or of taking
q cent of money from a man like
that. truly sympathize with her
but i must tell you the truth.
WOMEN MUST PROTECT THEM
SELVES.
