ANXIOUS OVER THE
 LOVE PROBLEM

Dear Miss Libhey:
 am a. girl of eighteen in love with a man of twenty-three for over two years My folks say am too young to have a beau and won't let him come to the house or even let me speak to him on the street, Do you think am too young to know what the word love means?
 A girl of eighteen cannot be consid- cred a young miss and has arrived at an age when she should be capable of judging whether she is in love or not
 Not knowing the circumstances. I am unable to judge of your parents dis like to the young man. Remember. however, you can depend upon them to decide wisely for your 6uture well fare, my dear.

clever humorist, pianologue artist and
entertainer. There is nothing stale or
hackneyed in anything he does. Ev-

he sings are his own composition, and
his wit and humor are of that spon-
taneous variety which is seldom
found.
One of Packard's songs has been
sung by him on the stage for seven
years and is still a popular hit. He
has refused an offer of $4,000 for the
publishing rights of the song, prefer
ring to reserve 1t for the exclusive
pleasure of his own audiences. t.
The program for this evening, Fun
and Fancy in Form and Color is one
of the famous cartoonist's greatest
hits, and has been given by him over
1000 times. 1t cannot fail to be as
popular as his Uncle Sans Folks"
given here last season.

"Stop Thief"

"Stop Thief" is the unusual title
of a new funny farce that Cohan and
Harris will present at the Opera
House Saturday afternoon and eve-
ming, JAN. 3.
The story of "Stop Thief has to do
with William Carr, a millionaire sew
eral times over who Is a klepto-
maniac. His immediate family know
of this morbid inclination to steal
and are constantly worried for fear
the closely guarded secret will be
discovered. The millionaire's daugh-
ter is engaged to be married, and her
intended husband, though she is ig-
norant of it, is also a victim of the
same morbid mania that possesses her
father.
{ The day before the wedding the
young man calls. and being shown a
valuable collection of wedding gifts
that has arrived, is Immediately OBJ
sessed with the inclination to steal
them as is also his father-in-law to
be, who has already been caught ex-
ercising his mania and compelled to
put the stolen articles back.
The younger man, to curb his desire,
phones for a detective to come and
watch him. In the meantime a real,
hope to-die sneak thief is let into the
house by a new maid, and when dis
covered in the act of leaving with all
the vaiuables he can carry, is mis-
taken for the expected detective and
introduced to the family as the bride
groom-to- -be's best friend.
Unexpectedly thrust into this queer
situation the real thief proceeds to
loot the house at his leisure. and as
one valuable after another disappears
the father and son-in-law accuse
themselves of the thefts, though they
have no recollection Of having COM
mitted them.
