gestions. DOT.

Dear Mrs. Thompson: I have been
going with boy for over year
In all that time I have never heard
or seen anything bad about him. |
think a great deal of him and | think
| he does of me. ! have another boy
friend over in France. He is a very
nice boy and he seems like brother
to me. They are both fine boys. If
the other one comes home from France
what shall do with both? | love the
one I have gone with for year and
half. AMERICAN BEAUTY.
Go with both of the boys. Since you
are not engaged. neither has an en-
tire claim upon you.
Dear Mrs. Thompson: | have been
married little over year and have
a little baby. | love my husband
dearly and until week ago | thought
he loved me. My sister. who lives in
another town, was taken sick and /
had to go to take care of her. She
/ got well sooner than we expected and
! thought ] would surprise my nus
band by going home without telling
him was coming.
Before ] went away we made plans
for him to cook his own dinners at
night. and when I got home I found
lot of dirty dishes in the sink, which
made me think he had been doing as
we arranged. ! went to the store and
bought things for a very fine dinner
that night 1t was ready at the usual
! time. but my husband did not come
! home. Then | waited until twelve
o'clock. and finally gave up expecting
him and went to bed because he did
not show up.
! At three in the morning he came in
I and he had been drinking. l made
/ him tell me where he had been and
! he confessed that he had gone to a
+ poker party at friends house. |
/ don't know what to do. 1t worries me
/ all the time now to think that my
husband would not be true to me when
/ | was away. To my knowledge he
. has never done thing like this when
/ | was home. Do you think he still
loves me? | can never trust him en-
| tirely again. FLORENCE.
! Your husbands offence is slight in
comparison with the surprises some
husbands give their wives. He does
love you if he is faithful to you when
you are at home. Probably he was
lonely without you and accepted the
! invitation to play poker more for a
diversion than because he likes the
game. Do not make big matter out
of this. Continue to trust your hus-
! band and entirely forget this little
occurrence.
| Dear Mrs. thompson l am girl
| twenty years old. have been going
with man three years my senior
since / was sixteen. He gives me
every attention when he is at home
and sends me candy and flowers when
away, but he has never told me that
he loves me. ! go with other boys
sometimes, but he never seems jeal-
Gus. He goes on and makes a date
next time and never says word about
| my going with someone else I love
him, but it seems he will never speak
of love.
! He is in France and cabled me that
he arrived safely. He does that way
| all the time. | thought that he would
| tell me before he sailed, but he did
not, Do you think that he loves me
and will tell me sometime?
! Everybody thinks that we are en-
gagged or secretly married blush
when anyone asks me about him and
as he is so attentive and goes with
no other girl | can see why people
think as they do What shall do?
| BLUSHING MARY.
| Just be patient and wait Both of
you are very young to marry, and the
man probably realizes this If the
money he spends so lavishly comes
| from his father, that Is reason enough
for him not to marry He may be
waiting until he is in position to sup
port wife before he asks you to
marry him.
