For some time after the death of
Colonel Aston on the Titanic four
years ago Mrs. Aston lived quietly
sion on Fifth avenue, receiving occa-
sional visits from the nearest friends.
Many who thought she would be eager
to take the position of social prom
inence her husband had given her
were surprised to see her apparent
Indifference to the chances before her.
But for two years after her husbands
death her thought and attention were
all for her home and her child.
About a year ago she gave one of
her first dinner parties at her home,
and Mr. Dick, her affianced, was among
the go guests. But at that time and
for some while afer there was no rea-
son to suppose that more than the
most casual acquaintance existed be-
tween the two. AS time went on she
entertained in a modest way with 9TH
er parties, trying at Aitken, S. c., and
at Bar Harbor, Maine, to kindle a new
interest in social affairs. Mr.. Dick
became more frequent guest at her
northern and southern homes, but
scarcely frequent enough to warrant
a suspicion of their approaching be-
trothal.
Mr.. Dick has a fortune of between
s2,0O0,00O and s3,O00,O0O. an inheri-
lance from his grandfather, William
Dick, one of the pioneers in sugar re-
fning The Inheritance has been sub
stantia1ly increased by judicious in
yestment.
The marriage ceremony will have
few in attendance, save the immedi-
ate relatives of the groom, his parents
his brother-in-law, Horace Havemey-
er, and W Kingsley Macy. Seth Bar
ton French, Lyman H. Hine and W
Scott Pyle. Mr.. Dicks brother, Adolph
NJ. Dick, will act as best man The
bride will be unattended, but her
younger sister, Katherine Force, will
be present.

Dear Mrs. Thompson I am a young
lady % years of age and l am engaged
to a young man whom | do not love
any more. We have gone together
for over year and have been engaged
for several months At first when
went with him he tried to please me,
but he doesn't care to any more. He
quarrels with me every time we are
together and then he sits and sulks
until it is time for US to separate. He
makes quite a bit of money, but he is
stingy and doesn't want to spend any
to take me anywhere. | get tired OF
just staying home and watching him
Sulk
l would like to break my engage
ment, but my mother doesn't want me
to. She says that he will be different
after We are married. | have two
younger sisters and l think they would
like to get rid of me, because they
think they will have more chance
then. We all work and l make two
dollars a week more than they do.
When | get married one of my sisters
will have my job. What would you ad-
wise me to do? Other boys like me
and would like to come to see me if
would let them. WORRIED.
The man you are engaged to is an
exception if he will become more
agreeable after marriage. Sulking is
habit that grows. Don't marry him il
you don't want to- because if you do
you will ruin your life. Pay your
mother board unless you already do So
Dear Mrs. Thompson: I went to
see a girl the other night and hurt
her feelings so deeply that she cried.
We had been reading something that
/ considered beautiful. and right after

wanted someone who could appreciate
what | read | would have to look
somewhere else AT the time she was
all right, but in about half an hour
she started to cry. ! know it was my
remark and ! told her | was very
sorry. She said il was all right. but
when | asked to came 10 see her again
she said that she didn't think she
wanted to see me any more. | value
this girls friendship very highly. What
can ! do to make her forgive me?
SORRY SAM.
Rock Island Argus. (Rock Island, Ill.) 1893-1920, 1916-06-22

Write the girl letter and tell her
that you feel you were rude. Say
that you value her friendship and
feel that 1t will be great loss to you
If she will not let you come to see her
again. End your letter by asking her
to go somewhere with you.
Daer Mrs. Thompson: l have been
going with boy for two years and
thought that he liked me very we'll and
l certainly liked him. He used to take
me everywhere and never went with
other girls. Now he has started to go
with another girl and it nearly breaks
my heart. He has gone with me some
lately, too. Do you think it would be all
right to tell him that he can choose
between us? BRUNETTE
There would be great danger OF
losing the boy entirely if you told him
that he could choose between YOU ami
the other girl. l should think it would
be better to let things take a natural
course. Since you are not engaged
to him you have no right to expect
him to go with you exclusively. You

remaining Indifferent when he shows
interest in another girl you may be
able to retain his friendship, espec-
tally if the other girl is a disappoint-
ment to him. He still likes you or he
wouldn't go with you at all.
Dear Mrs. Thompson: Last summer
I went on a trip and | met boy
liked very much. We wrote letters
to each other for awhile after we got
home and then he stopped writing to
me. Would it be all right for me to
write him that | am coming again?
am going to visit in town about a
hundred miles from here.
THANK YOU.
Let him hear from some other
source that you are coming. He prob

New York, June 22.-Eastern society
is keenly interested in the recently
reported engagement and approach
ing marriage of Mrs Madeline Force
Aston to William X. Dick, Brooklyn
business man and prominent among
the oldest families of that city.
The match is especially interesting
when it is recalled that under the
terms of Colonel Astors will the bride
will relinquish the Astor income and
fortune in marrying a second time.
She will give up the famous old man
sion at No. $40 Fifth avenue The
$5,00G000 trust fund and the house
will revert to the young Vincent AS
tor, Colonel Astor's son by a former
marriage. Mrs. Astor as Mrs. Dick
will still have the care Of the Agar
old John Jacob Aston Ill, on whom
100000 was settled by the father
Madeline Talmage Force was IS
years old when society was astonished
with the news of her engagement to
Colonel Aston. He had been divorced
from Ava Willing Aston scarcely a
year when he met Miss Madeline
Force, lovely debutante. at a dinner
party at Bar Harbor. 1t was in the
fall of 1911 that MadeIines father
made the formal announcement of the
betrothal
The divorce decree given the first
Mrs. Aston forbade a second marriage
by her husband, but this Colonel As
tor was prepared to ignore. Aside
from any general criticism of the al
lance there appeared a new diff
Guilty. 1t was some while before a
clergyman could be found who was
willing to oficiate. All arrangements
for the marriage were made and the
date almost at hand and still no min
lister was to be found who would join
their hands. At the last moment Rev.
Joseph Lambert of Providence STEP
ped in and saved the day. One of
the clergy Of Newport was also pres
ent as a witness.

STRAWBERRY SUNSHINE PRE-.
SERVES,

Select nice red firm berries; wash
and drain. To every quart of berries
have ready syrup made of two cups
of sugar and one-half cup of water.
When syrup has boiled five minutes
add berries and boil exactly 10 min
utes, no longer, and then skim on:
berries, placing them on platter. Boil
the juice 20 minutes, removing the
scum. Then pour the juice over the
berries and place in the sunshine. One
day usually suffices to reduce to prop
er consistency-which should be
jelly-like state. Reheat and then seal,
or place in jelly glasses and cover with
paraffin. This makes very delicious
preserve.

PLCN CONSERVE,

Though plums are given as the
fruit to use in the following recipe,
any fruit in season may be used in
the same manner.
Stew two and one-half quarts Of
plums with one and one-half cups Of

through a colander, then add as much
graduated sugar as you have pulp.
Put through food chopper two oran-
ges, one small lemon, one pound OF

nut meats and one-half pound Of sun
dried figs. Use the rind Of the oranges
and lemon as well as the pulp, but re
move the white skin and seeds. Cook

full not to burn. This is delicious for
sandwiches or to serve with chicken or
turkey.

THE TABLE.

Old Potato Dishes-At this time of
year when the new potatoes" are
rather expensive and we probably have
old ones still on hand, few ideas as
to using them and having them taste
well may be well received. Pare old
potatoes and let stand in cold water
an hour. This time of year they have
lost great deal of their moisture and
this will make them much better. Cut
in cubes, boil in salt water until ten
der, pour off water, cover with rather
thin white sauce and sprinkle finely
cut parsley over the top. If prepared
carefully they will taste as good as
new ones. Pare old potatoes, let
stand in cold water an hour, boil until
tender, salt and fry until nice
brown in pan with ham. Then with
the fried ham and potatoes serve let
tuce with cream dressing and you have

COACH CONTINUES TO
DRIVE METHOD|STS
FOR ALABAMA GAME.
Early Prospects Indicate
Line Will Be Heavy
Backfield Light9 But
Experienced

Coach Charlie Brown of Birmingham
college is daily driving his men fiercely
in an attempt to make creditable show
Ing against Alabama on September 30.
The squad has been in good condition
for the past three weeks and are run
ming signals very smoothly at present
However, Coach Brown is yet figuring
on some new plays.
Coach Brown is very much pleased with
the condition of the boys and unless in
juries interfere he will carry to Alabama
the best bunch of football players that
has ever represented the college.
Scott, a quarterback, is at present on
the injured list with disease of the
eyes. However, Cook is showing up well
instead. Scott is expected to return in
few days. He is a good man and with
his past experience should be able to
assist materially.
Bailey and Neese, who starred last sea-
son. are again demonstrating their ability
in their positions. Bailey is one of the
best tackles seen in sometime, While
Neese, at guard, played his first game
last season. Much is expected of him
petition, but is expected to retain his old
position.
McPhail, recently of the Central High
school, is bidding for a guard position.
The line is exceptionally heavy from the
present outlook and from a rough cal
culation will average 10 pounds.
The backfield is very light. but will be
offset with plenty of experience and
Speed.
