Dear Miss Grey: | have

years, and he has asked me
to marry him. | have re-
fused him for two reasons.
He is about rs years older

think great deal of him.

What answer shall give?
How. do you make cold
cream? Thank you.
ONE IN DOUBT.
A.-Y0u must think a great
deal of him when you hinge your
answer ON the assets you consid-
or valuable. In one side of the
scales You put, no property and
too old; i'm the other, no bad
habits. l can only advise you TO
keep balancing them until one
side outweighs the other. then
make your decision.
The directions for making cold
cream are too long to give i'm con-
nection with your other answer.
If you will send stamped, self
addressed envelope ! will send II
to you.
Dear Miss Grey: | am
boy of Is years. Now, Miss
Grey, there is a girl out by
my house, not one of those
fluffy-ruffles kind, but as
good a girl as any fellow

also likes this girl, and goes
with her every time he gets
a chance. work in a store
after school and on Satur-
days, so / don't get to see
her as much as my brother
does.
| asked her which of her
boy chums she liked the best,
and she said, "One as we'll as
another" How will | find
out which she likes best, my
twin brother. or me? Very
respectfully yours, C. II.
A.-N0w, he sensible, hoy. and
don't try to find out anything of
the sort Re content to remain
as good a friend rs any, or you
may lose the girls friendship alto
getiler.
The girl is very sensible to keep
all her boy chums on an equal
footing. he dandy, good friend
with her, and don't bother her
with silly playing at a game the
rules of which you do not under

Dear MISS Grey: | am
young girl of 20, and in love
with a young man, "a. | GER
tainly do love him, and ne
seems to think lots of me.

man, and when | ask him
he will only answer no, and

Thank you,

a.-"From the way he talks"
1 think he loves himself more
than any woman. Stop your wor-
rying, and send the man on his
way. l am surprised that a girl
with grain of sense will daily
along with man of no more prin-
ciple than the one you quote.
Your love does not amount TO
row of pins unless backed by
thought of others as well as self
respect. Have You not a single
thought for the wife and children
he may have? He is not the man
Tor any girl at present.
Dear Miss Grey: had
intended penning you a
Christmas letter, but have
been exceedingly busy.
wish to commend you for
the great and glorious work
you have done, and are do
ing. To help humanity is
the greatest service man, or
woman, can render society.
read your column every
evening hoping | may see
something that will enable
me to help people as you do.
You comfort the sorrowing
] with hope and consolation;
you aid those in distress with
your gems of thought and =
wisdom; you cheer the lone
ly and discouraged, and try
to bring back to right living
those who have lost their
way. | hope you will con-
tinue in the future as you
have in the past. to bring
sunshine, happiness, and
good cheer into the lives of
others. Sincerely,
J. w.
Al do not doubt your sim
cerity; but i do doubt that l de-
serve all you say. However,
thank you for your good wishes,
