love another girl but her?

A boy of eighteen in love with a girl
he has never met, and sure he can new
er love another, is an object that ex-
cites my deepest compassion.
My dear boy, have your mother call
on her mother. If she refuses, get out
your school books and think more Of
them and less of the girl. l give this
advice in all sympathy 1 know it will
be hard, but the hardest tasks are all

In France last year the births ex-

Persons with blue eyes are rarely af-
fected by color blindness.
The doll is probably the most antique

graves of the children of ancient Rome.
The Marquise de Query has left $20,-
900 to the city Of Paris to be devoted to
the ransom of articles pawned by the
very poor who are subsequently unable
to redeem them. The marquise was
moved to this by once seeing an old
couple staring through a pawn shop
window at the christening gift of their
dead child for which they had been
paying during many years.
Nine French hamlets on the German
frontier are still engaged in paying off
their respective shares of the indemnity
of 1870. When the French government
was called upon to pay the indemnity 1t
was arranged that every town in the
country should pay it's share, varying
anywhere from $500 to a250,000. At
the end of AZ years the nine villages
are still in arrears. Several of them
are bankrupt, and they have appealed

him from friend who is his cousin.

If your friend vouches for him there
would be no harm in such a corre-
spondence beyond the foolish waste OF
time. A letter is one thing, the writer
another. You might learn to love the
writer through letters which do not
truthfully portray his character.
Better not answer. Wait till you
have seen the man.

PROPER, BUT NOT WISE.
Dear Miss Fairfax:
What attitude would you advise
young man to take on meeting
young married woman whose
sweetheart she was before her mar
riage? They had loved each other
dearly, but through some misfor-
tune could not marry. The man Is
slightly acquainted with the wom-
ans husband. Would 1t be proper
for them to have a conversation?

There would be no improperly In
this man and woman meeting on

their love would always intrude and
might make mischief.

keep away.

that failure would endanger the or

YOUNG CHECK ARTIST
Filler Rancher Has His Name
Forged.

A young man about II years old,
named Harry Stofer, who has been

concluded he could get money faster
by writing checks than he could by
working. Last Saturday he wrote a
check for $40 and signed A. A. Davis
name. 1t was cashed by G. A. Love.
When it reached the bank the forgery
was discovered. A warrant is out for
the young man and his arrest is but
a matter of time. He skipped out
early in the week, but as his parents
live on the North Side it will be easy
to take him in at an early date. This
is the second time Mr. Davis has had
his name on spurious paper by fellows
who wanted to raise little cash
