Advice to the
Lovelorn
BY BEATRICE FAIRFAX.
DO NOT CALL AGAIN.

TEAR MISS FAIRFAX:
II [ am a girl of IS and go
with a young man three years
older than / am. This young man
claims he loves me, and he told
me he wants to keep steady COM
many with me, At first he used
n call on me every week, but now
he keeps disappointing me every
time he promises to call, and I
always call on him and ask him
for an explanation. which is a diff
fsrent excuse each time. and
amounts to nothing. Kindly ad-
wise me what to do, as love him
from the bottom of my heart,
and it would cause me to suffer
very much If had to give him up.
S. G..
Nv dear, IT is better to give him VI
than TO force yourself on him wher
he does not want you. If he were
very anxious to see you he would
keep his engagements with you Dc
not call on him again. 1t is not g
girls place to call on a man. and II
puts her in a very undignified and
9slse position.

LONELY.


Dear Miss FAIRFAX;
/ think the most aggravating thing
is this: When a man gives his wife
his weekly pay. and when there is
enough to spend for a couple of weeks,
and the wife goes on a little visit to
her mother, who lives i'm the country.
OF course she stays until it's gone
and then writes for more

DON'T WASTE TIME.
Dear Miss Fairfax:

Dear Miss Fairfax:
Some time ago I became at
tached to a young man who is in
an office. He secured my moth
ers consent and mine to call on
me and take me out. / have left
the position I had in the same
building with him and do not
have a chance to see him since
then. He has stopped calling on
me and does not even write to
me. | have lots of other young
men friends, but | think more
of this young man than all the
others. How can | find out the
reason he does not call? He
Hives some distance, but that does
not keep him away, for he told
me that if he liked a girl no dis
lance could keep him away from
her. vi. r.
If I were you would not bother
about him. He seems rather a ficSle
Young man. Try to become inter
ested in some Of your other friends
and don't waste your time fretting
over this uncertain young man.

A POINT OF ETIQUETTE.

Dear Miss Fairfax;
am a young lady Of nineteen
and would like your advice in
the following: A young man is
calling on me. When he enters
the room / generally step for
ward to meet him and offer him
my hand. Upon leaving he does
not offer his hand. Would you
kindly tell me the proper way?
Is it the young mans place to
offer to shake hands on leaving,
or is that a point of etiquette
that some people nowadays dis
pense with?
He should shake hands with you
when saying good night. However
it S not a very serious matter, and if
7 were you I would not let it make
any trouble between your friend and
yourself
