Dear Mrs. Thompson: / am young

man of "a. He is a man of good habits

ate. Can you advise me what TO do?
ANXIOUS.
My dear girl. your position is very
hard. This much is certain: where
two people really love each other
things will come right if you give
them time. Your father will see that
you are in earnest and really care for
the young Inan il separation and time
cannot change your affection. The
same is true of your lover. If he can
be faithful through waiting and separ-
aticn you can be certain he cares for
you. / would never advise a girl to
marry against her parents wishes, ex-
cept in an extreme case. If parents
really love their children, they wish
for their happiness. and when they
are convinced tina: nothing but this
marriage will bring happiness, they
will withdraw their objections. After
everything else has been tried, wait
ing and tactful behavior, and they still
refuse their consent, / think the peo-
pie whose lives would be made I'M
happy should take the matter in their
own hands, and do as they think right.
By that time they will have had time
20 think and should be perfectly sure
they have made no mistake in their
life's choice.
Dear Mrs. Thompson: I was engag-
ed to a girl and loved her deeply. She
may have cared for me. but she loved
admiration and would receive calls
from other men. / objected and it
made a scene. She gave me back my
ring. Is there any way | can find out

ST. CECILIA QUARTET PLEAsEs.

ST. CECILIA QUAR- TE ' PEeNSGS.
The first complimentary concert of
the season given by the Rock Island
Musical club was held yesterday aft
ernoon in the New Harper, when the
ST. Cecilia quartet of Chicago gave
the program. Miss Julia Manierre is
the first soprano, Mrs. Else-Harthan-
Arendt. second soprano, Mrs. Perme-
liza NeWby-Gale, first contralto and
Miss Hazel Huntley, second contralto
with Miss Tina Mae Haines as direc-
tor and accompanist. The program
was listened to by a company that
filled the room and the singers we're
received with much enthusiasm. The
beauty of quartet work is the perfect
blending OF voices and in this partic-
ular the quartet was exceptionally
good, in fact the harmony was so per
feet that one had difficulty in distin-
gushing the individual voices. The
singers followed a little too closely
their music, but this did not interfere
with a remarkably good interpTeta-
ton Of each number. The individual
voices were wonderfully good and
each of the singers gave delightful
solo numbers. Miss Manierre has a
high, clear voice, lacking perhaps the
depth OF tone which haracterized the
other singers. Miss Hunley has
contralto voice of remarkable depth
and fulIness, her tone being resonant,
clear and very beautiful. Mrs. Gale
shows great dramatic power and her
voice is singularly clear and sweet.
Mrs. Arendt also shows considerable
dramatic power and her Interpretation
of the numbers was splendid. The
quartet was compelled to give encore
numbers and each of the soloists re-
sponded to insistent calls for second
and even third selections. Mrs. Gale
gave an encore number in addition to
the two on the set program, singing
Glover" by Watts. Mrs. Arendt sang
two extra numbers. The Years at the
