to have home OF your own than to
live with your brother and bring
them up alone. Real love, not age,

Dear Mrs. Thompson: How is a
young man to know whether girl

spoon with her? Some women are
cold and unresponsive. l should hate
to marry such a one.

for indiscriminate spooning - this

ested in girl and thinks of making
her his wife. Is not a little judicious
spooning permissible?
A BACHELOR.
l think any married man will tell
you, my friend, that it takes all the
calm judgment a man can bring TO
bear on the subject to decide this
important question right; and man
may very easily mistake passion for
love. If girl is congenial mentally
and her views of life are in accord
with yours, if she loves you, she Will
never be cold and unresponsive.
Dear Mrs Thompson: I read the
letter about spooning, published lew
days ago, with great interest. II is
a subject about which l feel very
strongly. l have girls of my own,
and l tell them just what you tell the
girls in your column, that no decent
young man wants to marry a girl
whom every boy she ever went VITA
has Rugged and kissed All the bloom.

Brilliant Venus.

When she is at her brightest Venus
is so bright that if you knew where in
the sky to look for her you could easily
see her in the daytime, and at night
she sheds so much light that where
other lighting is excluded she will cast
a plain shadow. She is about five times
as bright as Jupiter ever gets, 10 times
as bright as Sirius, the largest of the
fixed stars, and hundred times as
bright as the ordinary first magnitude
stars. Her reign is, however, short,
for. as she makes three revolutions to
the earth's two. she rapidly passes us
and begins to fade away.

keeping constant company with an
| other girl and that he is very init
mate with her. What should l do?
E. L.
There is only one thing to do. Write
the young man, tell him what you
have heard, and very quietly offer to
release him from his engagement If
he refuses to accept the release then
insist on his giving up the society OF
this girl. There is no harm in his CO.
ing occasionally with other girls, but
there should be no secret about the
matter and of course constant atten-
ton to someone else is not to be
thought of.
An engagement furnishes an OPP
portunity for young people to become
better and more intimately acquainted
to see if they have the qualities that
would make them happy together The
fact that he could pay constant atten-
tion to some other girl and keep it a
secret proves that he does not care
enough ICr you TO MAKE you MS wire,
and that he is deceitful and not to be
trusted or else very thoughtless. The
course / suggested will make him
choose between you.
Dear Mrs. Thompson: l am wild
ow with two children. There is a
young man who has been very kind
to ME and to my children. He wishes
to marry me, and l think we would
be very happy together, but he is
