asked me to elope with him. as my
parents will not consent to our mar
riage. He is a man of good habits;
he doesn't drink or smoke, and he

him dearly, and life would be in vain
without him.
VIII you tell me il 1t would be all
right to marry without my parents

him. Please answer me soon, as I

Don't be tempted to tell an untruth
about your age, for this might cause
you much embarrassment later on.
The parents of a 1z-year-old girl are
quite right in opposing her when she
wishes to marry under ordinary circum-
stances. but it might be that they would
look at things differently if the young
man would have a talk with them. Tel
your fiance that said so. Tell him that

roads
After explaining that the hard coal
shipments for the first eleven months
of 1917 were 16 per cent greater than
in the same period of 1916, the state
ment says:
Cause of Shortage.
zone prime reason for the current
shortage of anthracite is the new,
large and abnormal, but under the
circumstances, imperative demand
from the government for army can
tOnments and other needs.
"War conditions have caused a
great influx of population from the
rest Of the country into the anthrar
cite consuming territory adding great
ly to te demand for hard coal 1t is
estimated that the population of Phil
adelphia has increased in the last
year by 100000, or three times the
normal increase, and as a result there
is now a pressing housing problem,
"Under ordinary circumstances
quite three quarters of the market
able output of anthracite is consumed
in Pennsylvania, New Jersey, New
York, Delaware and New England. 1t
is in this territory that the war in
dustrics are primarily located so 1t will
be readily seen that the shifting pop
ulation from south and west Is greatly
responsible for the present unusual
demand for hard coal.
"Under these circumstances non
essential uses for anthracite should
be eliminated as far as possible to in.
sure fuel supply to householders."

While Captain Tardieu pointed to
the possibility of a strong German at
tack on the western front during this
winter he is absolutely confident
that it will be another Verdun" he
declared in a statement.
The urgency of an enormous eco.
nomic effort was emphasized by the
French representative in this state
ment:
field, I have told the French, with
complete frankness, what America
expects from them in the way of re-
strictions and new sacrifices. | am
coming back to explain here the ne
cessary sacrifices that France and her
allies are expecting from America for
victory"
What Allies Need Most.
Men, wheat, oil, ships and locomo-
tives are the things most needed ami
which America is able to give, Cap
tain Tardieu said.
Thanks to the presence of Colonel
House and his associates the inter-
allied conference has done excellent
work. 1t was necessary that the gov
ernment of the United States should
assert its will and capacity to take, in
Europe, the part which belongs to
America in the direction of the war"
"The French army has never been
more magnificent" the British army
lis equally superb" and the "Ameri-
can army is increasing day by day."
Captain Tardieu said in speaking of
the morale of the allied forces.
That he might retain his commits
sionership to the United States, Cap
tain Tardieu declined to accept port
folio in Premier Clemenceau's cabi-
net. He did this, he said, because he
believed nothing is more urgent and
more necessary" than the work to be
done through his commissionership.
