Dear Miss Grey: You are
SO kind 10 help Others, i feel
sure you will help me too.
1 am a girl past 1S and have
always been a good girl and
stayed home and listened to
mother. She has been so
good and kind to me and
has worked hard for q living
and tried to get all for me
she could. She doesn't want
me to go out TO work because
am not strong. She has
cared for me all these years
alone, for she left father
when l was young.
i have never heard from
my father till this winter,
and the first letter he wrote
me he run mother down
something terrible. Do you
think he does right? 1t made
mother feel bad to think he
would write like that to me,
and she forbade me to write
to him. She said he had
never supported me and that
she would never have said
anything about him writing
IL he had written a nice let
ter.
L think he ought to re-
spect the mother of his child
and should have written
differently. Mother says L
shan't write. What will L
do? M. b,
Alt was unkind of you
father to write in such a mar
ner. BY all means you shoul
regard your mothers wish whe
she has so faithfully cared 70
you alone these many years.
If you ever have occasion
speak or write to your father,
is your duty to stand by you
mother in this instance. 1t
your duty to tell him that BIZ
fore he condemns one who ha
fought the battle of both a motf
or and fathers duty alone an
single-handed, he should be yer
sure he has executed his duty q

There Is young friend of

Please advise me at once.

A.-You cannot marry legally
until you have secured a divorce
from your FORMER husband, and
waited until six months have ex-
pired from the time Of the d.
| vorce.
A person is not considered
legally dead until they have been
absent five years, and during that
time no trace can be found of
| them though strenuous efforts
have been employed to find them.
1 would advise you not to run
| around with other men until you
have secured a divorce from your
husband, for you are his wife Just
as much as you ever were until
you take this step.

$4,000 Persons Storm Gates OF Tokio's
Foreign Office, Demanding Re-

Toxic, Sept. 9.-On Sunday a dra-
matte chapter was written in the his
tory of Japan. The assassination of
Mortiaro Abe, director OF the political
bureau of the Japanese foreign office,
has inf1amed the masses.
Fifteen thousand persons gathered
in mass meeting in Hibiya park, call
ing for military action against China
A majority of these marched to the
foreign Office and clamored for admis-
sion. They demanded the dispatch of
troops to China to take such measures
as were neces sary to obtain satisfac-
ton for the killing of Japanese at Nan
king, or, failing this, the resignation of
the minister of foreign affairs. Baron
Nobuaki Maxine
The speakers denounced the empti-
ness Of Japanese diplomacy in connec-
ton with California and China. and in
sisted the insult to- the Japanese flag
at Marking should be wiped out. The
manifestation was clearly an explosion
of popular resentment against the min
istry in its treatment of the California
and Chinese questions.
Profiting by the lessons OF riots
which followed the conclusion OF peace
between Russia and Japan, the govern
ment reduced the risk OF violence by
refusing to allow single soldier or
policeman at the scene. The manifest
ants, many of whom were students,
were orderly during the early part OF
the proceedings.
A score of agitators, including a
girl. decried Japanese diplomacy and
declared it had never contributed to
the upbuilding Of the empire and had
always ended in failure. The incidents
in China were unbearable.
Suddenly the cry to march on the
foreign office was raised and there was
a general stampede, many persons
barely escaping being crushed The
crowds surged through the streets,
headed by the gesticulating leaders,
and reached the foreign office to find
the high iron gates were locked.
Scores of the demonstrators pound
ed on the gates and called for them to
be opened, but in vain. The\underoffl-
