Just then The 60 npsned and IN
came the guests. The three little
mothers each carried a big doll in her

"You can come in, Billy Stone" said
Tilly's mother, "but your dog can't;
he jumps about too much"
"I'll keep hold of his collar" urged
Billy. please let him."
"Well, if you promise to hold him,
you can bring him in," was the reply.
Billy sat near the door, with both
hands holding fast to the collar of his
dog, who tugged and wnined to get
away.
After the dolls were served, the re-
freshmeEts were passed to the other
guests. Billy dearly loved cake, and
he entirely forgot his promise to hold
his dog when the plate of cake was
passed 10 him, and away flew the dog
to the table, upsetting everything in
! and he liked it as well as a child.
ooh. oh. oh" screamed the little
| girls and Billy ran for his dog, but
the dolls were on the floor and it was
found that the head of Tilly's rival
was broken. A loud cry went up from
Tillys mother, which brought heI
mother into the room.
Don't cry" she said, 1--WE will gel

will be as good as new"

a forlorn hope that she can attract at

All the same am inclined to think
that it is very hard on the pretty girl
to be the constant target of feminine
criticism, and by no means charitable
criticism at that People will, of
course, assure you that in this world
the law of compensation is always op-
Grating, and that things aren't as I'M

Jane can act as indiscreetly as she
pleases. and ny this very law of com

word concerning her dubious doings.
But the pretty girl can't stir hand or
foot without arousing all sorts of I'M
charitable remarks. generated, of
course, by her less highly favored sis

Why prettiness and complete pro-
priety should not be presupposed to
go together is a mystery. Definitions
of propriety are also strange. One

sixteen, and have been going with a
young man for three months. Nearly
every time he comes to see me we
have little fuss, but he always re-
turned.

| Grundy. The pretty girl is so attrac-
tive that the men are crazy about her,
and she has so many invitations that
she doesn't know what to do with
them all. l have always considered
her as particularly discreet, for she
shows discrimination in her choice
of friends and she never by any man
ner of means goes out of her way to
run after the male of the species. In
fact, she runs away from them most
of the time.
On those occasions, however, when

her to run away, but become so per-
sistent that she does allow herself to
be persuaded into little mild dissipa.

The other girl is so unattractive
that the men don't bother at all with
her. But she chases them with an
ardor worthy Of better course. The
greater part of her days is spent in
waylaying unsuspecting acquaint-

of peculiar dcings which SAVIOR of i'm

But no one criticises her-except
the men, of course, and in this argu-

that feminine criticism will always

AdUice to Girls
By Betty Bropn

Dear Betty Brown: lam young
girl eighteen years old and am going
with young man OF twenty. VS.. are
engaged but are going to keep the en-
gagement a secret for about year,
because my parents won't hear of a
marriage while l am so young. Is it
wrong for me to let him kiss me-?
Should l tell my parents of my en-
gagement? Yours truly,
Puzzled.
l should think you would be puzzled,
young lady. What ever possessed you
to consent to a secret engagement,
anyway? The honorable thing for the
young man to do would have been to
speak to your parents, even though
you think that they would not allow
you to marry so young. If they like
the man they may consent to an en-
gagement even though they would like
to postpone the wedding for a time.
Ask your parents consent, and ask
it at once. You won't gain anything
by keeping your engagement a secret,
unles it may be the slight romantic
satisfaction you two may get out of it.
should think that you would be able
to decide for yourself whether or not
it is right for you to allow him to kiss
you.
