Not TO BE Thought OF.
Dear Miss Fairfax: My daughter Is %
and has been going with a young man OF
p and Is engaged TO marry him, ThiB
young man we found out a few weeks ago
has been married five years and his wife
ran away from him, but he gave us an
assumed name when he came to the
house. He also admitted he was going to
marry her in that assumed name, and
take the risk without being divorced. My
daughter knew he was married all the
time. My husband and | told him to
keep away from the house and not to
write or see her before he got divorce.
But he has seen her, and sent letters,
telling her not to take notice OF us OF
anybody else, but just use her own mind.
The engagement ring which he gave her
has not the right initial inside.
A WORRIED MOTHER.
Your daughter base been a rash and
foolish girl and the mans actions were
criminal He might have been sent to
prison for bigamy had the marriage taken
place. and disgrace and shame would GER
tainly have come to her. / do not see
how she can ever trust him after what
has taken place. nor do see much chance
for happiness IN a marriage between
them In any event. she must not risk
her reputation further by having more
TO do with him until his divorce has been
accomplished. Ask your daughter how
safe she feels to entrust her future to q
man who drove his first wife TO running
away from him and who was ready 10
ruin the reputation and future Of girl
he protested 10 love.

Then 7 asked Hilda, our maid. what
was matrlmony and she said It's what
gives a gentleman the right to talk 10
his wife as he wouldn't dare talk to a

and what gives a woman the right TO
wear curl papers and n kimono before a
man and sass him to his face. Sure. says

Dear Miss Fairfax; | have been paying
attention to a girl for nearly two years
and love her dearly. L think she cares
for me, too because she sat with me one
day and one night when | was SICK and
right after that she gave me an expen-
stvc Christmas present She went to
the seashore this summer and promised
to write to me once every week, but 1
received but one letter the whole time
she was away. / answered four times,
thinking that / made a mistake in the
address, but received no amer. She
came home two weeks ago, and when l
telephoned TO her brother / learned that
she was going out with a man about five
years her senior She once told me she'd
never love any one but me.
HAROLD r. w.
The girl has shown clearly that she no
longer cares for you. Her present feelings
have far more weight than an outworn
promise TO care for you only. Her ar
fection isn't worth having. Don't gieve
over its loss.

Pulling Out Posts.

The trick Of lifting oneself BY ones
boot straps may appear somewhat dim-
cult, but a machine has been built
which does that. It Is intended to pull
out piles which have been driven In 50
firmly by pile driver that they cannot
be pulled up by ordinary means. The
machine is clamped to the top Of the
pile. which it grips firmly and auto
matically. Steam is supplied through a
hose. The steam lifts heavy weight
in the machine and lets 1t drop sudden
". BY an arrangement Of levers the
force Of the blow. instead Of being
downward on the top Of the pile. is up
ward.
The main difficulty in pulling up a
pile is to get 1t started. but quick Sc
ries of these blows soon starts the pile.
The machine keeps knocking it up until
1t moves easily. when no more prog
ress can be made. and the pile must be
lifted out with ropes.-Saturday Even

Sir Roger L'Estranee Was the Worst

The severest press censor Of which

condemned to wear some visible badge
or mark of ignominy. as halter in
stead of hatband. one stocking blue
and another red. a blue bonnet with a
red letter T or s upon IT.
But L'Estrange went further. He
was opposed to newspapers altogether.
because the reading Of them ''makes
the multitude too familiar with the
actions and counsels Of their superiors.
too pragmatical and censorious and
gives them not only an itch. but kind
Of right and license to be meddling

criticisms on the government were
vigorously suppressed during his cen.
