Dear Mrs Thompson: o. For the
past four years l have been keeping
company with a certain young man of
this city. l think the world of him,
but at times he doesn't seem to care
about me and again he seems to think
everything of me. He never speaks
of marriage, and so i feel that / have
gone with MIN long enough and still
I dislike breaking off with him.
few months ago l met another man
who is an engineer. He has been
married before. but his wife is dead.
This man comes to see me very often
and mas proposed to me. coulI
never think as much of him as l DO
the other man, although / don't fully
trust him q mean the one l loVe).
As il is every girls ambition to
have a home, ] feel justified in ac-
cepting this railroad mans kindly Of
fer If / did would ! be DOING justice
to either Of the men? l am an orphan
and have been without Il nome so
long that l feel 1 want to grasp this
offer
90 Can you tell me what makes
young peoples hair become gray Owe
the temoles? My hair is very gray
and in fact almost white over Tie
temples. BROWN EYES.
% Siace you do not trust the mar
YOU have gone with for four years,
give him up because you could not DO
happy with him il you lacked con-
fidence in him. You alone know
whether you love the engineer enough
to marry him.
90 Worry or sickness might cause
gray hair and sometimes it runs III
families.
Dear Mrs. Thompson: I am sixteel
years old. About two years ago l
got diamond ring from my parents
as a gift. but the band was too big for
me and so / gave it to my unmarried
sister to wear because she asked ne
to- She has one of her own and she
wears mothers and mine. That makes
three IN all. Don't you think three
diamonds look cheap? People who
don't know much about diamonds
might think they are FROM the ten
cent store. The other day ! asked FOR
my ring and she said l was too young
TO wear it, And so she wouldn't give
il to me. ! told mother about 1t, but
mother wouldn't say anything because
my sister is very nervous and When
anything is said to her that she does
not like she starts a quarrel DO you
think she has a right to keep my ring
anu '''' ANXIOUS.
Three diamond rings would not look
cheap if they were good diamonds.
You are very young to wear dia-
mond and might let your sister Keep
the ring another year for you. tie
consider1te of her and make her reel
that you love her. There is nothing
like love to melt an older sister
heart. Try it and | am sure you can
get the ring without a quarrel
Dear Mrs. Thompson: We have
lived in a cottage ever since last Au-
gust. NV husbands brother owned
the place but he was taken sick and
went to the hospital where he dled
A few weeks afte his death we took

lived here with his family. Ever so
often we hear strange noise as II some
one moaned.. 1t is not Imagination, for
my mother heard it when she was
alone. and also my sister Two OF my
sisters-in-law made the remark that
they wouldn't live in the house even
stay there in the day time. But l am
not even afraid when l hear the noise
Twice in the night when everyone was
asleep and quiet my husband heard It.
j would like to know what you think 1t
could be. The neighbors have neither
cats nor dogs. l do not belive in

sound you hear is nothing new, but the
death OF your DrOtner-lu-laN mas
quickened your imagination and made
you hear things you would not have
noticed before.

boys come to take them to an enter
tainment, whose place is it to say that
