 A. D. Be cautious as to encouraging your boss as a suitor unless he makes his intentions known. If he broke off later, you may have to leave your good position Other preferable young men you might miss by giving him all your attention in vain. If he is sincere you might ask him to call that your folks may know him.

over to dinner have been thinking
of what he said to Dick
wonder if women talk too much
of ourselves and our own affairs? l
heard a women the other day say: Il

There you see, little book, she, like
all the rest of us, was playing the
game of pretending. If she were not
interested in the details of her hus-
bands business it certainly would be
better for her to leave the men to-
gether Il am sure they would feel
freer to talk land interest herself in
a book, darn the children's stockings
or anything else that seemed expedi-
ent for her to do just at that time.
Of course, dear secret cavern, in
which bury my troubles, if anyone
should ever read you she would prob
ably think I was criticising every one
in the world but myself. But you,

The more l hear from other wo-

many of our great troubles of mar

than the individual" 1t is God
this in a sub-conscious way we wo-
men recognize when we are reaching
up to it, but we try to make it a slave
when we attain it.
On the other hand it seems to me
that men make love a plaything and
consequently because a god can new

thing it turns and rends us with every
cruelty it can devise.
Yes, little book, l have learned that
Love can be cruel and the worst cru

imagination ideals that can never be
realized by mortal flesh.
Poor old Dick! l know he has found

For a few minutes these married
children played a game of pretense
that meant just 'heaven-they played
with the idea of separation and grew
cold with fear while all the while
they were hugging to their hearts the
knowledge that they were never to
be separated again.

might think it silly, but you and I

\ resident of Windsor county.
who says that Mr. DeBoer is mighty
strong in that county and Rutland
county, sends the following communi
cation to the Montpelier Argus;
Two years ago in your editorial
column you took a position that the
test OF time has pronounced correct.
One by one a hostile press, where
free and uncontrolled, has swung
around so that were the same cleo
ton now at hand Joseph A. DeBoer
and his clean.cut honesty would be
swept onward TO the governorship
on the crest of a wave OF popular APP
prevail That fRteful year OF 1912
wrecked many a fair political ship
and swept thousands OF protesting
voters onto the sands OF uncertainty
where they now are quietly resting
uncertain as to what course TO pur-
sue as regards the choice of parties.
1t has been demonstrated that they
can no longer be delivered" with
out a revolt. Now the party that
will nominate Joseph a. DeBoer FOR
the governor this year will elect
governor. Take for example the Re
publican party. There are thous-
ands who left the party in protest,
all local DeBoer men. They would
fock back almost to a man to vote
fer the head of the ticket Ask
them and be convinced; with this
strength added to the regular repub-
lican vote the matter of the election
of governor would never go to the
legislature. AS sure as the sun
shines a Democratic Progressive
combine will elect a governor If the
Republicans nominate any other
man. 1t is their only hope. If you
want to have your printers ink
count why don't you see it this year
when the time is ripe? viii the Re-
publican leaders come to long
enough to see their chance and put it
