 Just as fate-or fancy carries;
 Longest stays when sorest chidden, Laughs and flies when pressed and
 bidden.'f
 Girls who have quite a number of young men callers and constant vis- itors are much inclined to favor as best the jo1lying beaux. She is fond good takers and of hose who, never weary of paying her pretty comph- metns and making each hour they are with her pleasant ones.
 This is the part of the young man whom she looks forward to seeing the keeping her in the best humor from the time he steps foot in her house un- til he takes his hat to go away.
 Clothes do not count with him un- less it is that he believes in looking neat when he puts in an appearance anywhere. The %jo1lying young man has no use for an automobile to win a girls favor by taking her out riding; treating her to suppers on the road, or having his car in front of amusement places where he could be said to fre- quent, with a crowd of young fellows. He does not wear g. serious face nor look downflcast as though he were in debt head over heels. That is not one of his misfortunes.
 Usually the jollier is not a hand some, outward1y attractive man. who would be singled out in a crowd from among all others. Nor is he a boast ful, t'I ann sort of fellow, who is apt to follow the vivacious, coquettish sort of girl that comes along. It is really impossible for him to follow any, set rules as to how he should conduct him. self among the Ioveliest or lfveliest Of fair young women. You cannot be dull and hesitate what subject it is best to Ebroach when he is in your company. Just leave him alone when the weather has been dreadful. cook has taken French leave and you are expecting your country cousins to troop in and upset your every plan. If he doesn't make the little. sitting room ring with laughter over his odd jokes you can be sure no one can.
 He turns misfortune into a golden opportunity of forgetting happenings and shows his fair listener the silver lining to the. dark cloud.
 What a contrast he is to the over nice visitor who iTnpresSes those with whom he comes in contact with his personality, who has been given to romancing, from the time he grew up. It is at the 1atter's tongue end, just what he will tell and impress one with when hescrosses the threshold. He is loaded down with dazzling jeweIry. Has the costliest taiIors, latest cut and style. One girl makes in reality not much more of an impression upon the women's favorite, as he is termed, than the next one whom he has formed the acquaintance of as a matter of course.
 Marriage is far and away from the majority of these young mems thoughts. You miss the lively, jolly beau if he stays away. And many laughs spring to a girls lips as she tells her girl chuns and folks what he said when she was a bit depressed and how an hour or two sped by quickly.
 "wi1 you. ever fall in love, serious 1y?' some ask I reply: There's sure to be a fortunate girl he will wed soon or late for this is fate.''

each other dearly. I am IS years of age Do you think it is right for me to do SO? Another young man whom I met asked me to meet him at a cer- tain corner but he didn't show up at all. He told me the street he lived on, but he didn't tell me the number of his house or his name. He also told n1e the shop he works in! Please tell me how can find out the number of his house.
 Nothing loses a ma1.'s respect for girl so quickly as for her to consent to meet him on street corners, in parks, in fact anywhere outside of her own home. The young man who knows full well the proper course to pursue to make her acquainted-an i'm troductipn through a mutual friend. Permission of her parents to call upon her is the next step. EScorting her trolley rides or taking her out for a walk ar to places of amusement should be subject to the parents approval. A girl cannot run after the young men, go hither and thither at their beck and call and expect to get a husband. They won't wed such girl; they may hTrt with her, fatter and jolly her, but marry her-never! It is best such couples do not wed. If they wed every time the husband felt aggrieved at anything he would be more than apt to fling up in her face that he ought to have known better than marry a girl who would meet a man at corner, or indeed anywhere else. their acquaintance with the opposing sex if they would win respect-the kind that ripens into love and mar r1age.

ToDAY's POEM
ONWARD.

 Beneath this starry arch, Nought rsteth or is still; But all thinugs hold their march As if by one great will.
 Moves one, move all;
 Hark to the footfall;
 On, on, forever. Ton sheaves were once but seed; Will ripens into deed; As eayes-drops swell the streams Day-thoughts feed mighty dreams: And sorrow tracketh wrong As echo follows song,
 On. on, forever. By night, like stars on high, The hours reveal their train; They whisper and go by; never watch in vain;
 Moves one, move all;
 Hark to the footfal;
 On, on, forever. They pass the cradle head, And there a, promise shed; They pass a moist new grave, And bid rank verdure wave; They bear through every cline The harvest of all time,
 On, on, forever.
 Harriet Martineau.

FRoCK oF sURMARINE cHIFFoN PopIIN.

Despite their long run. poplfns are meeting with general approval for Au- tuInn wear and will continue their popularity until some substitute is pro- vided. They are to be had in both dress and suiting weights and are shown in the newest coIors, one of the favorites being submarines rich, dark grayish- blue. The frock shown there finds eloquent expression in chiffon popiin. which is very serviceable despite it's lustrous finish The bodice is trim med with collar and cuffs of natural color organdy, and the two-piece skirt has inserted side sections forrning pockets.
 Chiffon poplfn ranges in width from 36 to 40 inches and about AZ yards will be required for this dress if duplicated in medium size. In addition 5s yard of organdy will be needed for the collar and cuffs, and A yard 2-inch betting for thD stay.
 The dress can be cut very econornf- cally if the various sections of the pat tern are advantageous1y placed on the poplin. First the material should be folded in half; then, placed into posi- ton first is the back gore, right on the lengthwise fold of the goods. Follow Ing this is the collar. and after the col lar the front gore.
 Retracing slightly, the space between the back and front gores is filled with other sections of the pattern--namely, the piecing for the back gore and the belt, the former laid on a lengthwise thread of the material and the latter along the selvage edge. So far there is practically no surplus material. Now. skipping to the lower edge of the front gore, the front of the waist is laid the poplin. to the right Opposite the back is the inserted side section that forms the pocket. and following this, as closely together as they can be placed, Are the cuff and sleeve.
 All is now ready for the cutting, and when the dress is completed one has a design admirably adapted to girlish figures.

srEwEn BEEF AND roMAre

Have a pound or more of beef stewing cut up into finger pieces, put it into a saucepan with boiling water. Cover and simmer two hours. Have ready two cut-up tomatoes or half a can and add these, with two large ta- 'b1espoons parsley. Add salt and pep per cover tightly again and simmer two hours more, adding a little water if it needs it; when tender take it up and serve as it is, or thicken slightly, if preferred. If you have a casserole think it muh better to use it and do the meat in the oven. They are very nice for cheap cuts of meat. as a cheap tough piece of meat can be made tender by long slow cooking in a casserole.

THEY MEET CLANDEsTINELY
Dear Miss Libbey

Dear Miss Libbey:-
 I. am IT; keeping company with young man 24. Have known him over a year. He claims he loves me. He ther doesn't allow company. We meet and have phone conversations A month ago we had a quarrel but made up. He has never been the same since. One day he told me he had girl, so I told him I would not meet him any more. When hearing this he said he was joking with me. I have doubted when away. Do you think he has a girl? I often ask him, but he says no. He doesn't care about meeting me any more. Do you think he cares for me? Should phone him? Anxious.
 VII.
 Too much cannot be said, little girl, against the folly of meeting a man clandestinely holding comnunica- ton with him against your parents wishes. In no place on earth can a girl be so carefully safeguarded as in her. own home surrounded by those who love her and have her best inter ests at heart A girl makes her first grave error in keeping secrets from her parents. If you love this young man, have a heart to heart talk with your father, explaining all that has taken place, truthfully, asking him to allow you to invite the young man to call at your home. If your lover is worthy you will not have to plead in vain. He has been through the expe- what love means to a young man, and will aid you in your love affair. If the young man objects to calling upon you in your home, in sisting on meeting you outside, it would be far better to drop him than to comply.
