The Hattiesburg news. (Hattiesburg, Miss.) 1908-1917, 1915-08-13

Dear Miss Brown: I am a young
man twenty-five years old and have
an understanding with a girl that we
are to become engaged next winter,
if by that time she is sure of her love
for me. The other night her elder
brother saw us kiss each other. Since
then, he has made it very unpleasant
when call and very hard for the girl
at home. Do you think l would make
it easier for her by staying away or
should | continue paying her atten-
ton even under these unpleasant con-
ditions until she is willing to become
engaged. Joe.
What business did you have kissing
the girl unless you were engaged. The
girls brother is doing perfectly right
in scolding his sister and showing you
that he disapproves of the way you
behaved. Remember that he is, in a
sense. her protector, just as any male
relative is supposed to be. On this
account his behavior is justified.
Why not explain the situation to
him? You cannot go on in this way
until the girl makes up her mind, and
if you stopped going with the girl it
might mix matters up worse than
ever.

Aduice to Girls
By Betty Bropn

Houston, Miss, Aug. 1.-Dear Miss
Brown: We are both employed by
the same firm, do the same kind of
work, draw the same salary. One is
a blond and one brunette, and both
are in love with the same girl.
She treats US the same and refuses
to make a choice. She is engaged to
us both, wears both our rings on the
same finger, and lets one call one
night and the other the next.
We have thought of drawing
straws" and the loosen quitting.
We are the best of friends and any
advice you can give us will be appre-
ciated by us both.
We are yours very truly,

anything about love after his brief
acquaintance with you. That would
have been short courtship sure
enough. &
To tell you the truth, think that
you scared the man away. If you
made him feel that you were persu-
ing him, it is your own fault that he
broke engagements with you. l should
have thought it would have shown
you that engagements with you
weren't very important to him if he
broke them so often.

S-6Iond,
Brunette.

Dear Blond and Brunette: Now
think you are both very foolish to let
this young lady keep you on the eve
of suspense; she is not loving either
of you, because if she did it would be
very easy for her to make a decision
as to which of the two she would be
willing to give up.
Perhaps she has an idea what your
salary is and thinks it insufficient to
support her as she would like to be
and is waiting for one or the other of
you to get a better position. If this
be the case, then both of you start
out for something better and if she
thinks the same of you both it would
perfectly natural that she would de-
eide on the one with the higher posi-
ton.

New York, Aug. 1H.-Whether Mrs.
Charles Becker, widow of the police
lieutenant recently elotrocuted, will
be called to account at the coming
meeting of the Board of Education for
her action in stigmatiZing Governor
Whitman as the murderer of her hus-
band, is just now of deep interest to
women teachers. Mrs. Becker, as a
teacher in the public schools, can be
held accountable, and it is deemed
probable that the matter will be dis
cussed when the Board meets on Sat
urday.

very much, and he has been to see me

three engagements with me. Does
this mean he doesn't care for me any
more?
Please advise me how to regain his
love. E. c. r.
Goodness gracious, E. C. R., but you
are hasty. The boy has been to see
you twice and now you believe that
you have lost his love. What sort of

Dear Miss Brown: l am a young
girl nineteen years old and am en-
gagged to a man forty years my senior.
He makes $23 a week. Do you think
we could marry on that amount? He
calls to see me three times a week,
and has never broken an engagement
with me. He thinks a great deal of
my girl friend, and l have heard he
goes to see her.
Do you think we will be happy-we
are to be married next week?
Certainly | think you will be hap
Ply. You aren't going to let the ru-
mors you have heard stand in the
way of your happiness. Why, you
ought to trust him for the very reason
that he has never broken an engage
ment with you. Heaven knows how
many letters | receive from girls
whose friends have broken engage
ments with them, and your case is a
delightful exception.

London, Aug. 12.-The latest hero
inc of Russia is Princess Marie Slo-
bodka.' The story of her romantic
meeting with Michael Angeloff, Rus
sian student who had just been CON-
missioned in the army, their elope-
ment, their honeymoon in Russian
trenches, the bride serving in soldier
raiment as her officers valet, and
finally the denouement, when both
were wounded and taken to a hospi-
tai in Warsaw, has reached London.
This daughter of a Russian nObleman,
while travelling alone in February,
met the dashing young officer on a
train. Their love ripened fast, and
when they left the train they were
married. Instead of a fearful fare
well, the Princess planned coup.
She appeared before her husband in a
soldiers uniform, her beautiful hair
clipped short. For a week she en-
dured the hardship of the trenches
Then came a terrific shell-fire, and
both the officer and his orderly were
wounded. The Grand Duke Nicholas,
goes the story, decorated Private
Laurenty," as she was known in the
trenches, with the highest award for
valor, the Cross of st. George.

Poughkeepsie, N. Y, Aug. 12-Far
away in South America, on a small
and unfrequented island in Lake Tt
ticaca the alumnae of Vassar College
will erect a monument to Professor
James Orion, the noted explorer, who
died there. Recently it was reported
that only a crumbling stone marks
the grave, and the memories of the
Vassar graduates of forty years ago
were awakened to the long neglect of
the humble grave in the distant land
But Vassar women are equal to the
occasion, and they are subscribing for
a marble shaft to mark the grave of
the explorer. Orion was a professor
at Vassar, when he entered the will
derness for a third exploration in
South America. He died in 1877 in
the wilderness, from exposure caused
by the loss of much of his equipment.
