I have never been in any sense OF the

You will rarely find two such old
pieces in such a state Of perfect pres

plain and much used little sugar bowl
and cream pitcher, and in two rather
ornate cake and fruit baskets.
"This old cabinet you see in the

grandmother. In it / have placed Tie

Dear Mrs. Thompson: % I am
girl OF sixteen and would like TO
know IL IL IS improper to spoon with
the fellows?
90 Is It all right to go out auto
riding with a chaperone?
90 Is IL improper to accept a ring
from a young man school friend as a
gift?
90 Is It considered unladylike to
let your escort kiss you good night?
A READER.
u II is immodest to spoon with
the fellows at any age. The only
proper person to spoon with is your
husband or the man you are engaged
to marry.
(2D II is always best TO have q
chaperone along when a girl is young
and apt to be giddy. a great many
girls think they are fully able 20
take care OF themselves in any
emergency: but they only think that
because they are young and mex
perienced. That is where a chaper-
one comes in strong.
(3) A girl should never accept
jewelry from a young man unless he
is her fiance.
"a II is unwomanly.

popular. / have been here almost
year and a half. / am invited to a
great many parties and dances now.

by being bold and not very modest.
You had better stay shy and bashful
than be Ike that. for you Will never
get any real satisfaction out OF such
popularity. think II you will al
ways be pleasant, sympathetic and
considerate OF others. you will find
many friends.
When a girl IS new in a town, she
Is apt to be sought by the young
folks. After they become accus-
TONED TO her she may think her
popularity has died down. but the
truth IS that she IS only simmering
down to her steady friends. So be
contented. little girl. and happy.
What is happening TO you happens

stances.
Dear Mrs. Thompson: ~ / am a |
girl OF eighteen and I am in love
with a young man two years my /
senior. with whom ! went for some |
time last year. Some trouble came !,
up between us and we rarely spoke, |
/ thinking he was mad and he thinking /
was to blame. But ! have found /
out through several dear friends that
he is still in love with me. but is
afraid ! will not recognize his atten-
ton, and therefore when we meet he
treats me very coldly. How can
make him see I still love him?
90 I am now going with a young
man who IS very much in love with
me. but / have found out I cannot
truly return his love. Can / return
his fraternity pin and let him know he
cannot continue his attention in a way
