A MoNEY sAVIER.

If you are using an antiquated stove, you are needlessly wasting two to three tons of coal a year in the kitchen Deliberately burning it up with nothing to show for 1t except wasted time, a lot of worry, and prob ably poor results in the end. A Glen owod range will give lasting satisfac- ton It will not only reduce the coal bill, but will give you more time to do other things. Glenwood doesn't need any coaxing to turn out the work and very little watching-the reliable indicator on the oven door tells the whole story. The improved due sys- tenn insures quick and positive results. The Glenwood can be had with a com plete gas stove attached if desired. This takes up very little additional space and is. just the thing for winter or summer. Information, prices and special terms can be secured from the local agent, Nothnagle's home furnish ing store, corner Main and Elm streets. Adv

BREAKING THEIR
 ENGAGEMENT

Dear Miss Libbey:
 am girl of twenty three. small for my age, going with a young man a year and two months. Says he cares for me. We quarrel over little mat ters. He tries to spite me. If he breaks our .enga cement, does not make present in d year, does he care for me? Ought he to do more for his peo- pie than his young lady? q think I couldn't give him up. Again, I think I don't love him.
 GRACIR This may be case of not knowing one's# own mind. Time works wonders. Bach may learn to be more consider ate of the other, to overlook faults, and love each other only.

To win or lose it aH.''
 Many a mother who is poor in purse. but rich in possession of a sweet, beautiful daughter, often be- nnoans her lack of means. She thinks it bar to her girl making a. good matrimonial match. She will tell you there are few girls fairer and smart er,' but she has no chance of meet ing the class of men from whom her mother would choose for her
 She never meets the right kind, declares her mother, despairingly. She goes to her work early in the morn ing, remaining until about dusk By the time dinner is over, frugal though it may be. it is o'clock. Of course, she could go and call upon a girl friend unattended, but there is getting home by herself after 1O:30. If her employers see her often on the street at that hour alone their good opinion of her will suffer backset. Poor mothers who have plenty of work to do at home for their large family can not take the time to accompany their daughters The result is the girl re- mains discontentedIy at home, be- moaning the fact that she has no chance in the matrimonial field against girls who are more favoraibly situ- ated.
 Such girls err in their judgment. Esx-
 
 and again, where least expected and under all sorts of adverse circun- stances. When Cupid starts out to look for a heart-mate for a young man, he does not bother about Iuxuri- ous surroundings. All that concerns the little fellow who seeks a mark for loves arrow is the right kind of a girl Somehow Cupid takes delight in mat ing good young men of wealth to maidens who are poor, but worthy Introduetions are brought about in dt- vers ways.
 The girl who has a pleasant smile | on her face solves the proposition much more readily than she who wears a frown. The pleasant girl makes friends, and their influence car go great way in bringing marriage able people together. A girls neat appearance is often a factor in her matrimonial success The stranger who comes in contact with her through 1 business is attracted to her by her neat appearance She looks sensible that strikes the first keynote of the marrying mans attention. He laughs in his sleeve at the girl whom he of ten meets in the elevator who looks as though she were rigged out for an evening party in her low-eut gown, huge siIver-buclxled slippers, and slit skirt as she leaves the office after the work of the day is over. It is always the girl who does not bother her head over 1natrimony-gde on the even tenor of her way-who somehow sur prises her friends by making the best match of the season.
