/ Dear Mrs, Thompson; l am girl
Of % and engaged to a young man OF
| 26 whom / love very much and 1 am
| sure he loves me. He gave me a
beautiful diamond last Christmas, but
| since then he seems to be very stub
born and mean at times and we have
one misunderstanding after another. !
try to reason with him and be as sens
ible as I can, but it does no good. l
| had almost decided to give him up.
Then I thought you might tell me
! something TO do / am almost afraid
to become his wife for fear things will
| be worse after we are married.
| There is another young man I had
been going with before ! met this
one and he was Just as good and kind
TO me as anyone could be and loved
me and wanted me to marry him, but
liked him as friend only. Shall |
try to win his friendship back again ?
] heard he would come back at any
time. Or shall keep on going with
the one sm engaged to?
A READER.
If you and the man you are en-
gagged to cannot get along before you
are married you certainly could not
after, You are still young and If YOU
give this man up you will have oppor-
tunities to meet many more men among
whom you will find someone you can
love, Because You give up this man
| is no sign you have 10 go back to
your former friend. / suggest YOU
have a heart-to-heart talk with your
fiance and give him to understand YOU
will break the engagement unless he
reforms at once.
Dear Mrs. Thompson: I am a girl
of 20 and / am keeping company with
| a man of 80 Is he too old for me?
BROWN EYES.
Some girls of 20 have married men
10 years older than themselves and
been very happy, and others have not.
il depends upon the girl and the man
whether he is too old or not. ASK
your mother what she thinks.
Dear Mrs. Thompson: I am to be
married very soon and my fiance and
| are having disputes very often. He
shows a great deal of jealousy lately
and it makes me feel very badly One
day at the table al my brother-in
laws he was talking about something
and did not pay particular attention.
Then my hrother-in-law said some
thing about my little nephew and I
I listened more to that than | did to
what my flance had said. After dinner
my fance said that he might as well
talk to the walls as to me, because |
pay no attention. He wanted to know
. why ! didn't go over and sit next to
my brother-in-law / didn't saw any
thing. but it hurt very much. He has
shown jealousy often since. II sGy

SUGGESTIONS FOR THE HOLIDAYS

q
A Little Roast Pig for Holiday Din
ner-A pig for this purpose should not
he over month old, as the skin of
larger pig will not develop the savory
"crackle" which Charles Lamb has so
graphically described To be at its
best it should not have been kept more
than a day or two after the killing.
While the pig comes from the mar
ket all dressed, il requires a thorough
washing in cold water, taking care
that the eve sockets, throat and other
portions are thoroughly cleansed
Then rinse in plenty of cold water and
wipe dry. Season the inside with salt
pepper and a suspicion of powdered
sage and press full Of any stuffng de-
sired Fasteu the dressing in by tax
ing few stitches with a long needle
and coarse thread, drawing the skin
together
Roll the ears and fore legs in but
tered paper TO protect them. Bend the
fore feet under the body ana press the
hind feet out backward and skewer in
place Some cooks prefer 10 bring
both forward. Fasteu the mouth open
with a bit Of hardwood or corneob,
that IL may afterward admit the ira
ditional apple.
Rub the skin of the pig with but
ter sprinkle with salt dredge with

three hours or more, basting often.
