next morning soon after breakfast,
when you and he both are in a good
mood ask him in a friendly manner
to come into the other room with
you. Point out chair for him to
occupy and you take one, pulling it
up within about three feet of him.
Consciously keep yourself relaxed
and maintain as natural an express
sion on your face as possible. Now
in starting to talk to him, make
every word count. Take your time.
Pronounce each word slowly. Say
something like this: This morning,
have something to tell YOU. | want
YOU to remember it all of your life.
We do all we can TO please you. We
to do even more in the future for
you. | am not going to scold you for
anything you have done in the past
or for what you did last evening,
but il must never, never be repeated.
So long as you remain in this house
and we treat you like a respectable
son, IT will be necessary for you to
do what we ask of YOU. We shall not
ask what is unreasonable but after
this, you are TO be at home by half
past eight. We shall expect YOU in
by that time every evening. You are
to remember this. We are going to
treat you right and you are going
to treat us the same way. This will
be a much better way to get along"
Rise from your chair and prepare
TO go to your work. Make it a point
for few days to show favors to the
son frequently and make him like
you better than ever before.
If a second talk is necessary, do
not lose your temper but be more
firm in letting him understand you
will not tolerate further repetitions.
Your husband should strongly CO.
operate with you in using this meth
cd, especially if you are obliged to
deprive him of certain privileges
which he would like better than his
evening out.
Then, when he stays make pop
corn and fudge in the home occa-
sionally. Arrange evening programs
during the day. Invite friends in
every few evenings. Have the boys
play active games and cooperate
with them.
Get this boy interested in taking
care of pigeons or rabbits or chick
ems. He needs to have things of a
wholesome nature to occupy his mind
during the day as we'll as night. Take
walks with him out with nature.
Make a closer pal of him and then
you can more easily influence him.

Lear MISS dlTldN.
l am young girl of sixteen,
and have been going around with
a crowd of boys and girls whose
company l like very much. My
mother is against this, because she
thinks 1 am too young for boys.
They are only schoolboys, and
would like to know what you think
of this, as l esteem your opinion
very much
Y. Y. z.
If you want my honest opinion,
I think Il girl of sixteen. living Mt
home, ought to be guided by her
mothers Judgment, l believe. If you
opened my mail some morning, and
read some OF the regrets girls have
for not taking their mothers ad-
vice, you would be willing to defer
going about with boys a little longer.
No one of sixteen realizes how young
she is. With all of life before you,
you can afford to wait a little while.

GREAT DIFFERENCE IN AGE

GREAT DIFFERENCE IN AGES
Dear Miss Fairfax:
I would like to ask you if you
think it right for girl in her
teens to entertain the idea of marrv-
ing man of fifty, even though he
is we'll preserved and can pass for
thirty-five. Also, do you think a
man of that age should marry a
gi so young. Do you think thirty
years difference between a husband
tnd wife is too much?
INTER ESTED.
Unless there is some exceptional
attraction between these two people,
or some great community of inter-
ests, it would seem such an unusual
difference in ages might be some
thing of 4 risk. 1t depends so
much on the individuals themselves
rather than on circumstances wheth-
er marriages of this kind are a sue
cess History records several that
have been exceptionally happy.

BOOKS AND MAGAZINES

\ History of Politics-A very in
teresting and useful little book for
all who wish to know something
about the genesis of modern forms
of government bears the title, "A
History of Politics." (E. P. Dutton
& Company, and is the work of
Edward jerks, an English barrister,
member of legal, historical and
political faculties in British and
Australian universities, member of
parliament and author of many vol
umes OF historical, political and
legal studies. This present book,
which has had a very large sale in
England. is a compact and concise
little volume that presents briefly
but with notable clearness and JUS
tice a resume of the development of
political forms and governmental ef-
forts from those of primitive savage
groups to the latest political evolu-
ton of the union of federated states.
The work tells not what men have
thought, argued and theorized about
government but what they have ac-
tually done for the regulating and
controlling of the societies of their
several times.
The Scarecrow," which (. P.
Dutton & Company, will publish
about the end of this month, is a
collection of short stores by a new
writer. G. Ranger Wormser, who
uses a graphic and convincing meth
cd in his treatment of occult and
ghostly themes. The book takes its
title from the initial story which
pictures the effect upon young
farm lad of a scarecrow dressed in
his grandfather's soldier uniform
and set in the corntield to drive
away the crows. Several of the tales
touch more or less closely upon war
themes and all are of the sort that
makes the breath come more quick
ly and keeps the eye glued to the
page.
