young man who loves me. l know,
for he told me SO. He left for Chi
cago several months ago and about
three months later he wrote to me
and asked me to come to Chicago,
which l refused to do. This OF
course, made him, very angry.
told him was too young. and he
kept on writing the same thing
over, and SO l told him l was very
sorry, but he must stop writing
that or we would have a fall-out.
He wrote, saying there was no use
to correspond if I was not willing
to come. l wrote back and told
him If he didn't think any more of
me than that he should find him
self another sweetheart, but OF
course he hasn't. At least 1 heard
| he is always downhearted.
Do you think it would be improp-
er for me to write him letter and
! tell him l am sorry or should ]
not? / don't know what to do.
| CHRISTINE K.
Don't write to him again. You
are too young to be in love. and it
will be far better to forget this boy
as soon as possible. Don't worry
about his pining for you, because If
he pinned to any great extent he
would write himself He may have
| looked tired sometime and his ap-
pearance was misunderstood by the
person who said he was down
| heared.
Door Mrs. Thompson: Can you
tell me how I can get a divorce
from my husband for desertion and
how much it will cost?
ANXIOUS.
Tell the case to the Judge of the
probate court and have him advise
you. He will know the circum-
stnaces and can tell you practic-
ally everything you want to know.
Dear Mrs. Thompson: Will lem
on Juice get rid of freckles and
will it injure the skin?
ANXIOUS.
| ASLuOA juice usually lISut0uS
frecKles. 1t dries the skin, but
the dryness can be counteracted
by the use of cold cream. Moth
ing will remove freckles unless
| the skin is well protected from
the heat Of the sun.
Dear Mrs. Thompson: I am a
girl of 16 and am very much in
love with boy and he seems to
| think a great deal of me and does
not go with anyone else. Do you
| think l ought to go with any other
| boys? MARIE.
You are too young to go with
boys at all, and certainly toe
young to go with only one boy.
| Simple Home Treatment for S. H
kindly tell me some simple home
treatment l can use for superfluous
hair on my arms and neck.
MRS. F. C.
Answer-A safety razor. But

who are wearing full boards be-
cause their wives have corns.
Dear Mrs. Thompson: Can you
| please tell me of something that

ing, apply the mixture to each of
