Adoice to Girls.
By Betty :Brown

Dear Miss Brown am a young
man of twenty-five who once missed
chance to marry girl of eighteen,

no matter what | do. Although have
tried to forget her think that | could
make up with her, for she hasn't kept
company with anyone since left and
l received card from her but a short
time ago.
Please advise me what to do.
Charlie.
What has kept you from making
up" with her for so long? l don't see
any reason for either of you to be
angry-the mere fact that you didn't
think you loved the girl shouldn't have
resulted in quarrel.
From your description of your feel
ings you certainly do bear all the
evidences of a man in love, but cheer
up. l only think you are foolish to
have moped along by yourself for so
long after you stopped calling upon
the girl. What must she think any
way? If were you I'd go right over
to see her his evening. You will be
a bit stiff and uncomfortable at first,
but don't let that bother you. "She''
will probably feel just as uneasy until
she gets acquainted with you all over
again. / do hope she won't discover
that she's fallen out of love with you
meanwhile.
Dear Miss Brown am sixteer
years of age, but am considered by
|, my friends a mere child in actions
and dress. Is it proper for me t.
speak to an elderly gentleman to
whom | have never been introduced
but know by sight on account of know
ing his son? My reason for asking
, this is that he has done me a favo
by opening the store door severa
. times when my hands were full c
b packages.

l. At first was going to say no to tn
lquestion about speaking to the elderl
man who has been so courteous
you but upon reading the second pa
n of your letter have changed N
n opinion around to a decided yes. TT
IT mere fact that you have commC
10 friend does not warrant your spea
re ing to him, but since he has put "
n in debt to him by helping you SO kin
ID ly, it would not be grateful of you

b. think so?

ANOTHER SMOKER; GOSSIP
NEWS OF the BOXING WORLD

monthly smokers at the club hall
next Saturday evening.
There will be seven bouts on
the card, including six Tacoma
boys, and several Spanaway box
ers. Paul Steele of the Tacoma

Steele put up splendid battle.
They also know that the Seattle
sport writer wasn't within miles
of the ring.
