Dear Mrs. Thompson: Last fall
met a young fellow from another
town. When l first saw him / didn't
care much for him. The second time
l saw him l liked him very much, and
soon afterward We went together
After going together for quite awhile
did not see or hear from him.
About three weeks ago, when had
quite forgotten him. I saw him. MY
love came back to me. We soon be-
came fast friends and 1 went with him
for about two weeks. Now we have
quarreled again.
] am deeply in love with him and
realize 1 can't sleep or do anything
else. I am trying to forget him. but
it seems useless He tries to make me
jealous. 1 could do things to make
him jealous. but / don't want to. Now
he hardly looks at me.
I am worried sick because I don't
know what'to do. Sometimes 1 wish
I were dead or that / never saw him.
He is the only fellow I have ever
loved.
What shall do. learn to forget him
or what? WORRIED.
You have no choice since he acts
the way he does. You will have to
learn to forget him. You like to think
about him and suffer, but before you
can really forget you will have to use
will pQv CT to force him from your
mind. II you earnestly try, you can
make yourself happy again. There

SOUND OF THE HAMMER.

After a rather extended lull. home
Topeka. The assurance that prices
will remain high and that there is lit
tie chance of a sharp decline in costs
has indicated that the demand for
new homes must become paramount
over the backwardness of the con-
struction market.
Early this season the cry of wait
until prices come down" was effective
enough to nearly paralyze the progress
OF dwelling improvements in Topeka.
The population of the city made a big
jump this spring and modern houses
for rent were a rarity. Yet there
seemed to be a lack OF money for
building.
The failure of the government to
send down food prices or to stabilize
lumber and material costs has con-
WINGED the general public that. for the
present at least. the dollar will be
spoken OF in less intimate terms. The
realization that material and labor
would stay at the dizzy level brought
about a steady increase in house con-
struction.
Today the city rings with the sound
Of the carpenters hammer.
There is no reason why the work
should not continue. Despite the fact
that a $4,000 home of a few years ago
costs $4,000 to build now. the argu-
ment remains that rents have scared
and apartments of the modern type
are most difficult to find. Comparing
the general advance with the condi-
tons OF pre-war times it is apparent
that a $4,000 home now is no more ex-
pensive than the $4,000 home of 1910.
II s safe to estimate that Topeka
needs at once $50 modern homes. Per-
sons are leaving the city because they
cannot find suitable rooms for the
winter. Many new families have been
and have gone back to
their former home, placed the chill
dren in school and will not return I'M
til housing facilities have been i'm
proved.
A good well built house is still gilt
edge investment.

connected with her. nevertheless. She
is a very vain creature, and lives
mostly in a room surrounded by mir
rors, so that she can admire herself
whichever way she looks"
No one answered this speech, be-
cause they had just passed out of the
forest and theil attention was fixed
upon the scene before them-a beau
tiful vale in which were many fruit
trees and green fields, with pretty
farmhouses scattered here and there
and broad. smooth roads that led in
every direction.
In the center of this lovely vale,
about a mile from where our friends
were standing, rose the tall spires of
the royal palace, which glittered
brightly against their background of
blue sky. The palace was surrounded
by charming grounds. full of flowers
and shrubbery. Several tinkling foun-
tains could be seen. and there were
pleasant walks bordered by rows OF
white marble statuary
All of these details Dorothy was, of
course, unable to notice or admire
until they had advanced along the
road 10 a position quite near TO the
palace, and she was still looking at the
pretty sights when her little party en-
tered the grounds and approached the
big front door of the kings own apart
ments. To their disappointment they
found the door tightly closed. A sign
