BY Mrs. Elizabeth Thompson.

Dear Mrs. Thompson: am a girl
o; 20 and engaged to be married to
an upright young man. whom love
and who loves ME. He Is also my
brothers. friend, but my brother wants
me to go to college and not marry this
man, and says he will pay my way.
My parents think | ought to marry
and my fiance is against my taking
the college course. We are waiting to
have our own home before we marry.
His father says he will help us and his
folks like me. What shall 1 do-go
to college or marry? STEELE.
My dear, all the colleges in the
world can't make up for a good mans
love. If you really care for this man
You will start making a home for him
as soon as possible, especially since
your and his parents wish it. Mar
riage will teach you more than you
can ever learn in a college.
Dear Mrs. Thompson: I am IT years
old and about four months ago met
young man, and we fell deeply in love
with one another. But we had a quar-
rel and I, thinking he loved me no
more, told him 1 loved him no more.
He hasn't been out for six weeks, but
is coming soon.
How can 1 make him know without
making myself cheap that 1 still love
him? I know he loves me, for his
chum told me so. Should Islet him do
the little affectionate things he used
! to do when we were first in love?
How can 1 make him come again?
don't want him to come once and
then not again.
! I am an Independent girl and can
give him up, but my love is not pup
py love"
! DEVOTED DOROTHY.
! Let him do the love making, Doro-
! thy. Be nice and sweet to him, but
don't be too easy" Then he'll want
to come again to see how things are
coming along If he really loves you
he won't be able to keep away. You
! can guide yourself by that And if
you really love him you will take good
| care not to quarrel with him again.
| Anyway, quarreling is bad manners.
| Dear Mrs. Thompson: ~ I am
girl almost sixteen years old. have
! been going with a young man nine
| teen years old for almost three months.
1 don't believe I could ever give him
UP and he says he will never marry
anyone else. He has no bad habits
except drinking, although I only know
! OF him being drunk once. My folks do
not like him because he drinks. Would
he ever stop drinking for my sake
If he does not stop before he marries
me, will he stop afterward2 / don't
think he would. (2) Am I too young
to go in society with him? (3) How
long should a couple be engaged be-
fore they marry?
LOVESICK.
My dear little girl, don't think that
you have met the only man you can
love because you have seen boy who
says he loves you. Why, you ought to
laugh at him!
! If you think he really loves you, test
him. Tell him you will marry him
when you are eighteen if he does not
touch another drop Of intoxicating
| liquor from now on. If he stops, he
will be real man and you can trust
him. Otherwise put your heart on
somebody who is worth while. He
certainly will not stop drinking after
marriage if he won't before.
Dear Mrs. Thompson: (1)-There is
a boy here who seems to like me when
with me. When he's near other girls
he seems to like them, too. He acts
more personal with me. Do you sup
pose he likes met (2)-There is an
other boy I like. He wants his sister
to invite me to their home and when
I go he tries to be alone and hold my
hand. Does he really love me or just
want to act foolish? WONDER
| O-He likes all of you, just as a
puppy loves everybody. Gall boys
have to go through the Aand-holding
stage. 1t doesn't make much differ
