= Advice to Girls

Dear Annie Laurie:
have been going out quite a
number of places theaters, skat-
ing, etc., with a man seventeen
years my senior-my age is eighteen
This young man told me he thought
lot of me; l also liked him very
much. but he couldn't be depended
on as he was quite a fabricator.
We parted good friends some
months ago. and recently a young
man Intimate with my friend)
called at my home and took me to
a concert and to the rink occasion
ally. One night-getting somewhat
confidential-he told me latter my
promising not to repeat} that my
old friend told him most terrible
things against my good name (Which
were very untrue). VIII you please
tell me what / should do under such
circumstances? I would consult a
lawyer IL it were not necessary to
tell who told me, as 1t would un-
doubtedly mean the loss Of the sec
ond young mans position Thank
you very kindly for your trouble.
AN ORPHAN.
DON'T see that you can do a thing.
dear Orphan, except get rid OF inc
acquaintance OF both the young
men in question just as soon as
possible.
II the first one is. as you say. faprl-
Gator. and IL you believe that ne mas
said untrue things about you, all you
can do IL to cut his acquaintance-witn
as little fuss as possible. Don't have
any row with him-don't make yourseii
conspicuous-just treat him with marked
coldness the next time you see nimIanu
after that when you meet him-oe look-
ing the other way. He'll Know what -
the matter. without your saying a %oru
about it-his conscience Will tell MN
The other man Is a tale bearer ana
sossip-he must be lacking in deicacy
81 feeling. to say the least, or he would
never repeat such a thing to you. He's
as had. or almost as bad, as the nrst
one.
Do YOU like snakes? II you met
snake in the meadow-would you stop
10 see whether 1t was striped or cneck-
ed-or would you run just as far as
you could, Just as fast as you coulo-
and let it go at that?
The moment a man begins TO hint tnat
he has heard something against Wom-
ans reputation, the only th!nS that
woman, or any other woman, can 90 Is

who see further ahead than the pres
ent week or month. Their marketing
is done on the daily, or at most
weekly, plan. Their accounts are
kept haphazardly. with no idea OF a
future end. or a plan ten years of.
I deplore this, because the detail
man or detail woman is never as
great as the large-plan individual. 1t
Is seeing only in the present, and
being smothered in a mass of daily
detail that prevents stability and de-
velopment for the highest kind OF
family life. The mother who spends
unnecessary sums and time on
Susie's hair ribbons is not thinking
as rule. of practical plans for
Susie's college education. The wom-
an who buys what she wants, and
whose expenses are not run on
budget plan, Is the woman who is
eXtravagant, and who Is partly re-
sponsible for the high cost of living.
The woman who idol!Zes a fancy
guest room and yet has no place in
her house for the development OF
her boys taste for manual training
or electricity. is not the large-plan
woman.
The successful business man Is al
ways the large-plan individual, first.
He must and does know details. But
II Is his visions and ideals which
create and build that business to
success The successful homemaker
must also be the large-plan woman.
II must be her ideals and her per-
ception OF a future education. a
future permanent home. a future
clean city which will make home
making the highest success.

Some one was needed to look on

with Ellen Key. Bernard Shaw and
other individualists is that they are
always thinking in terms of a small
class
It's all very well to say that a
man should not be compelled to live
with woman he no longer loves.
But go down into the domestic rela-
tions court. as I did. and hear a
woman whose body is bent and
her husband has deserted her and
their 81 x children for a pretty. young
girl. And remember that his wages
are enough for one family, but not
enough for two. You can't tell him
that he is free to leave his wife,
since he no longer loves her!'

to recognize the group character
istics. Yet this quality Of other
selfness isn't enough to guarantee a
right marriage
Thus she takes up but not entirely
disposes OF the beautiful theory of af-

of some of the affinity cases which
have found their way into the pages
of the newspapers il may be we'll

modern mnrriage-the case of the

at thirty won't be married to the

Petit mali and grand mall are
French terms which have crept Into
English to distinguish the lesser from
the more severe types OF commissions.
In petit mali the victim may not fall.
and only have a momeatary ft of alb
sent-mindedness or abstraction. While
thus for an instant mentally at sea, he
may throw an inkstand or a rock at his
best friend and work untold injury.
The more severe kinds of fits are char
acterized by absolute loss of conscious
ness, except in the variety due to acci-
dents or injuries to the brain. This Is
called Jacksonian epilepsy.
There are a number OF fraudulent
cures" for fits and epilepsy None of
these have borne out the claims made
for them.
Each patient subject to corvulsive
spells must be treated by physicians as
a law unto himself. Much may be done
for them Women so affected should
consult a skilled specialist on feminine
ailments.
