HEART AND BEAUTY
PROBLEMS

(4) Would 1t be all right for me
to 60 to Washington and work there
until we are married in six months,
as he wants me to do it? will stay
with q married cousin. BONNIE.
"a The young man should not have
proposed to you until he was In po-
sition to buy a ring. He should do
his utmost to save in order to get you
a ring soon.
(2) You are right in wanting the
ring. But you are wrong In worrying
so much about what people think. Tell
the man how you feel and ask him
when he will be able to give you the
ring.
(3) Do not use your money for the
ring. A woman who starts out help
ing a man in such a way ends by sup
porting him. Let him carry his own
burdens. You can help him more
with your faith in him than by CIV
ing him the money he ought to be
earning.
ca 1t would be proper to live in
Washington with your married cousin.
But l would advise against it. Re
main at home and give him something
to work for. He will have more time
for his work and will progress more
rapidly. When he can take you there
rs his wife it will be time enough to
go. Do not marry II you have to
work, too. From your letter it seems
to me that the man is too willing to
shirk his obligations.
Dear Mrs. Thompson: We are two
girls sixteen years old and cute look
ing. We like to go to the movies
and dances and have good times. We
don't have boy friends come to see
us like the other girls do. Just once
in a great while we have a date. The
boys are always knocking what we
say and do. What is the reason? Do
you suppose they think we are silly?
PALS.
The boys may think you are silly,
You seem to admire trifles instead of
important things. To be "cute look
ing" Is not half so great an asset as
to be "homely but so very interesting"
Do not giggle when you are with
boys or make yourselves conspicuous
by the way you act and the thongs you
say

TO RELIEVE CATARRH,
CATARRHAL DEAFNESS
AND HEAD NOISES

Persons suffering from catarrhal
deafness, or who are growing hard of
hearing and have head noises, will be
glad to know that this distressing
affilction can usually be successfully
treated at home by an internal medi-
cine that in many instances has effect
ed complete relief after other treat
ments have failed. Sufferers who
could scarcely hear have had their
hearing restored to such an extent
that the tick of watch was plainly
audible seven or eight inches away
from either ear. Therefore. If you
know of someone who is troubled with
head noises or catarrhal deafness, cut
out this formula and hand it to them

flammation and swelling in the Eu-
stachian Tubes, and thus to equalize
the air pressure on the drum, but to
correct any excess of secretions in the
middle ear, and the results it gives
