"Can't Bear to Turn Them
Down."

Shh u W
Down."
Dear Miss Grey: have
been engaged to a young man
for eight months, have a
good many gentlemen
friends, and go out with
them quite often. The man
1 am engaged to objects to
me going TO dances and for
boat rides with them, and
says 1 will have to give
them up or break our en-
gagement.
They are all very nice
men. and 1 couldn't bear to
turn them down. My lover
works all the time, and he
cannot afford to take me out
as much as 1 have been used
to going. 1 love him dearly,
Miss Grey, and can't think of
giving him up. / have never
had anybody tell me how an
engaged girl should conduct
herself, SO 1 rely on your
advice. KITTY.
A.-There are certain conven-
regarding this subject
that girls of good taste take
pains to observe. The attitude OF
an engaged girl toward her men
should be more re-
served than before, and especial
Iy decorous.
l do not mean that she Is to
be cut off from society, as she
may still receive visits and calls
from old friends, but her position
rs an engaged woman makes 1t
for her to receive at
.entions from others than her af-
'ianced, which previously would
have been right and proper.
/ advise you not to marry
lust yet. A girl who is not will
ng to give up the company of
ler other men friends for one
has not found the right man, or
S too young to know her own
mind. If your lover cannot
AXE you out now, he cannot do
10 more after you are married.

So Other Girls May Know.
Dear Miss Grey: Like so
many others, 1 come to you.
i have been married three
years and am only 10 years
old. i have two little boys.
When / met the man 1
thought 1 loved L was only
16, and he coaxed me to run
away and we were married,
his friend swore falsely to my
age.
Now, il we part, will / have
to get n divorce or can the
marriage be annuled. He does
not care for me and has not
for two years, and l no long
or love him, although i try
to; but it's no use.
1 hope you will print this
so all silly girls of 10 will see
il and take my advice; for "a
girl does not know what love
means ut the age of 10. They
will love one man then, but
by the time they are 1S they
will only like him, and the
old saying of "marry i'm haste
you will repent at leisure" is

Rose Beads.

Rose Beads.
Dear Miss Grey: VIII you
please publish II recipe for
rose beads, and do you have
TO use bead moIds?
G.. @.
A.-Gather rose petals while
fresh, run through a meat grind
er eight times daily for eight
days. Then roll the consistency
into beads twice the size wanted
and string on hat pins. Any kind
of roses will do, and if one wishes
them black, keep the pulp in a
tin or iron vessel. If dark brown
color is wanted keep in a crock.
They may be polished by rubbing
with a little sweet oil and pol
ished on carpet. Be careful that
the pulp does not sour nor get
too dry. II 1t should get too dry
add a few drops of glycerine.

will strive for perfection in your

You are entirely too young to

Well Known In Lancaster.

Colonel ]. Monroe Young, better
known to his friends as j. Roe," and
who was resident here in the palmy
days of Middlesboro, arrived here last
week after an absence of twenty-three
years. Colonel Young now makes his
headquarters in Washington. He is
deriving a great deal of pleasure meet
ing his oldtime friends here. Mr..
Young, when asked by aPinnacle News
man what his impression was of Mid
dlesboro after being absent for so many
years, said: when l left here twenty
three years ago Middlesboro was a
paper town and looked to me on the
verge of crumbling. You can imagine
the surprise in store for me when FIND
what has been accomplished in these
years toward making your city a sub.
stantial and an enduring one." Mr.

The Omnibus Bill Again.

The Omnibus Bill, the measure which
annually raises the hopes of so many
Kentuckians. only to blast them again,
is again before the House, and as usual
has ''bright hopes of passage. This
measure carries with it multitude of
old war claims, among which are a
great many in which people in this i'm
mediate locality are interested. Many
times has it's prospects of passage
seemed bright and yet it died an un-
timely death in a Committees hands
or elsewhere, all of which goes to show
that, at least in some instances, Uncle
Sam is a tardy paymaster. One thing
however in its favor this time is that
Rep. Oscar Underwood is urging its
passage, and it is hoped that with his
able assistance it may be put through
successfully and that that the long de-
ferred hopes of those interested may
be realized.

Rev. PEBBLES Injured.

1t will be sad news to the legion of
friends of Rev. ]. R. PEBBLES in Lam
caster to know that the splendid old
gentleman fell on the streets of Win
chester recently and sustained broken
ankle. He is doing as well as could be
expected. but at his age, he is SO years
old, his friends are very fearful of
serious results. DR.. PEBBLES many
years ago had charge of the local
Methodist church. He was active in
educational work as well as in promo
ting church work, and it was due main-
ly to his efforts that the old Garrard
Female College. one of the bestinstitu-
tions of learning in Central Kentucky
in its day, was established. 1t stood
upon the site of the present Graded
School. Rev. PEBBLES was also mainly
instrumental in the erection of the
present Methodist church, supersedine
the old dilapidated structure which that
congregation had used.

Tobacco Not In Condition When Put On
The Market Depresses Prices.

Warehousemen throughout the state
are complaining that farmers are
bringing their crops to market wet;
that many of the crops contain wet
stems and are not in proper condition
to be marketed. They claim that this
not only proves detrimental to the far
mer himself, causes his crop to bring
less price than if it were in proper
condition, but it actually has tenden-
cy to depress the general market, to
the disadvantage of the good and bad
handler alike.
This state of affairs is perhaps in a
measure due to the over anxiety of
some to rush their crops to an early
market in order to get Christmas
money, and in that over anxiety,
they neglect to see that their tobacco
is in as good condition as it should be.
Haste ever made waste, and this is
no exception to the rule. The far
mer who takes his time and does not
market his crop until he is absolutely
sure it is in marketable condition, is
the farmer who will get the long price
] for his product.

the vicinity of Lowell charging him
with forgery. The negro is charged
with having forged the name of an
other person to an order on the Ex-

the forged paper. This should prove a

to calling for liquor consignments which
are not addressed to them individually,
