he believed hated him and only kept COM
pany with him for pastime." This was q
week ago and have not heard or seen him
since. love him very much SO I wish you
would please tell me what to do. c. A.
The boy no doubt was only trying to
tease you by pulling your hair and
your collars. 1t was natural of you 10
refuse to let him walk with you II he
would not stop teasing. And there was
no reason for him to take the scolding as
an indication of your not liking him. Do
you mind my saying that think st ID
very foolish for you to go around with
boy whom you have never had to-
your home? If it is your fault that the
boy has never come to your home 4
would arrange to have another girl and
boy there some night and then drop him
a little note asking him to come, too.
You might say that you are sorry he
took offense at your remarks the other
evening, but that there was nothing to
do. but get cross with him when he
wouldn't stop teasing you. Then when
you see him, good-naturedly refuse to
let him tease you are more.

handsomest man they have ever seen. And
now since he has gone to camp and has on p

point is this: while this girl friend that I
speak OF is not homely. she is still nowhere

He has always been very nice TO her and

OF the boy and girl readers will be more

can always be nice looking If she is
careful about her appearance and ar
ranges her hair becomingly. Many happy
marriages have resulted between excep-
