ABOUT AUBURN HAIR.

have a letter from a girl reader asking me for something to tighten her hair
 She says: 'sHdy hair is a. light brown, sort of auburn, but is turning dark brown Please advise me what can do to keep it light
 am glad she neglected to send a self addressed. stamped envelope for this gives me a chance to answer her through the paper and as have had three other enquiries of a like nature can thus 'slxin four birds with one stone-''
 Dear brown haired girl, please do not do anything to tighten your hair. Nature is such 8 wonderful artist and her blending is perfect If she is darkening your hair a wee bit, it Is because you are going to look better with darker hair My model has dark auburn hair and she is beautiful Dark auburn hair has always so much warmth and depth to it, with occa- sIoua1 red glintss that you never find in light auburn hair. Keep your hair exqu1siteIy clean Even dark auburn hair Is not pretty if it is dingy or rus ty looking. Ehampoon 1t often and dry 1t in the sun, when possible. If you st111 think you want a bleach, write me again and I will send it without amy farther advice

A JEALOUS HUBBY
Dear Miss L1ibbey::


 I am young married man. My bride is an attractive brunette twen- ty years old. Before marriage. she dressed in dark modest brown or black suits. Now she has bought a flaming red dress, a hat with a big red feather and carries a red leather bag.
 Every one turns to stare after her which I resent bitterly and which she courts and is pleased over Men try to hfrt with her and even follow her home and write notes here. They all think she is the kind Of woman which she is not. We have com menced to quarrel dercely. want her not to wear that dress She VOWS she will. Would not be justified in burning that red dress which is the cause of all my troubles? Please say something in. your column to bring her to her senses. PETER B.
 Talk to your bride gently, kindly, asking her to discard the dress which has brought you such torment. If she loves you (and of course she does) she will consent rather than see you unhappy over it. She will look equally as pretty in dress you ap- prove of. Z Don't seoId her-per- suade her between kisses.

Once upon a. time there was a little; girl who was very fond of playing games.
 Agnes didn't have any sisters or lit tie brothers to play with so one day she said to her mother: 'I wish I had a new game to play and some one to play with me-
 Her mother thought moment and then said: Why not play yous are visiting2 I will tell you how. Put on your hat and coat and go out and knock at the door,
 So Agnes went ont and knocked and her mother opened the door and said: Good morning Amy Did you come to see Agnes. She just went away but come in and visit me-
 So Amy came in and took off her things and her mother brought some little cakes and a glass of grapejuice and they talked while she ate.
 Amy, would you like to play some with Agnes dolls while I finish my work ?'' asked her mother and Amy made believe she thought that very nice.

MISS LIBBEY,s REPLIES
TO YOUR LETTERS
AnHs WE'LL THAT ENDS WE'LL

Dear Miss Libbey:
 I kept company with young man for four years. He seemed to- think lots of me until last summer-When he quit me entirely and began going with other girls. While with them he was always very polite to me but would never ask to come to see me. Suddenly, he asked if he could come back to see me again said he could and he has been coming twice a week since. Do you really think he loves me, and should I return it L.
 No doubt he broke off to understand his heart better-to find out for him self Absence makes the heart grow fonder'' or teaches that it is easy to forget,' The other girls did not prove as interesting to him as you did so it was natural that he should re- turn All is well that ends well.

SHE SHOULD TELL
 HER HUSBAND

Dear Miss Libbey:
 am a married wonan-for three years A young man I talked to be- fore marriage-and who went away at that time, has come back He in sists that. I should treat him like I did before marrying. He always calls when he knows very well my husband is at work. Should I ask him to stay away2 L "
 The wife who holds the love and. re- spect of good husband has no use for a viper who would enter her gar den of Eden to ruin it. You should tell your husband all about it. You do very wrong in allowing him to call when your protector is absent-or at any time.
