Advice to the
LOvelOrn
Have Become Entranged.

DEAR MISS FAIRFAX:
f have been going about with
a young man for the past few
months and have learned to care
for him. All the time he has
treated me very nicely and limited
at an early marriage.
For the past few weeks I have
noticed that his attentions to me
were divided. and he was never
on time when he had an appoint
ment with me. He also tried to find
reasons for arguments. We went
to the theater, and after the show
he suggested a place where we
could sup, but, since my intention
was to save him money, suggested
a cheaper place. He began to argue
with me that a girl has no right
to tell a man where to take her.
How can / meet him again?
Would IL be proper to write him a
letter and make an appointment
with him? Or should I call him up
and try to talk it over?
AN ANXIOUS GIRL.
From your account of the younSl
mans conduct, / do not believe you
would have much comfort in renew
ing your friendship with him. 1t
sounds to me as If you had begun
to get on each others nerves a
little, and as if he were looking for
an opportunity to quarrel Some
times a situation. such as you de-
scribe, is helped by a good talking
over Of things; it clears the air
and enables both parties to get a
better view of things. But il the
friendship is over. as far as he is
concerned, IL would only unneces-
sarily humiliate you to seek for a
reconciliation. You might man
age" to see him and give him a
chance to renew things, but If he
does not avail himself of the OPP
portunity doubtless you would be
happier If you tried to forget him.

''oh. just going" said Puss, I'm
a traveller"
I'D like it," said the little girl"
pushing her hand in his paw. Il
know lots of geography, and that
would help"
Yes it would" he replied. But,
you see, l just go where the wind

'I love the wind, even IL it does

only last night, for il was . the.

save me from the robbers in the
wood"

the little girl, nesting up to him
as IL the robbers might come by any
moment
Twas this way: These bad men
had tied me fast totheir hut, going
to bed and leaving me all alone.
The little star looked in through
the window and told me not TO be
afraid. And, after a little, the good
sister Of the robbers came and set
me free. And here ! am"

TARLY the next morning Puss

IL kind farmer and his daughter
so rosy and fair" and set of once
more on his journey of adventure.
"Ah," thought Puss to himself,

wonder what will happen today?
And then he began to sneeze.
IF you sneeze on Monday, you
sneeze for danger" cried a voice.

turned out to be a very pretty little
girl
Its Wednesday" she said.
We'll, I've sneezed for a letter"
said PUss, but 1 guess the postman
has forgotten me"
"Tu send you one" said the little
girl, and she sat down and wrote on
a piece Of paper: 81 like q Pussy
Cat who wears red-topped boots"
That's q very nice letter" said

was glad that his elderly compan-
ion ignored him, just as IL he had
been a part of the car, for then he
need not speak, but could recall
Desiree's gentle tone, could try to
remember how soft her dark eyes
had looked when she had assured
him that even IL the limousine had
been in use, she would not have
gone with Mrs. Bassett-
Then he called himself a fool and
tried to bring back a little of the
indignation he had felt only an
hour ago at Miss Leighton's dis
pleasure. But IL was useless. He
really could not blame her for hav-
ing been displeased. And anyway,
even if she had been unjust, she
had every excuse for being so.
Only once did Mrs. Bassett speak.
This was as she parted from Smith
at her daughters house.
Thank you for a refreshing and
pleasant drive" she said.
Then, before he could guess her
intention, she pressed a dollar bill
into his hand, and started into the
house.
But David hurried after her and
stopped her at the door.
Pardon me, madam" lifting his
hat and holding the bill out to her.
81 cannot take this"
She answered him with a majes-
teriaI wave Of the hand.
That's all right" she said. Il
always hand something to my
friends chauffeurs when they take
me driving"
Before he could protest further,
she swept past him into the door
that a maid held open for her.

David returned to the car. amused
and indignant Yet what else could
he expect?
Later. as he drove Desiree Leigh
ton uptown, they had to wait st one
of the cross streets, where there
was a block in the traffic.
David took this opportunity to
toss his dollar Tip" into the box Of
a young woman wearing the SAL
walton Army hat. He hoped that his
companion had not seen the action,
but a moment later she commented
upon 1t.
1T was nice Of you. Smith, to give
a dollar to that girl. The Salvation
Army are doing a wonderful work
both here and overseas. 1t is right
to encourage them as much as pos
sible"
David must say something. He
felt as il he were an imposter in
more senses of the word than one.
That was not my money" he
said, confusedly. II meant was
only a dollar that had been given
meas 4 tip. And 1 did not want
it. do not receive tips"
Desiree regarded him admiringly.
Surely this man had a fine sense OF
the properties
I never forbade your receiving
money from my friends" she said.
Some employers do forbid 1t. But
am glad you appreciate that 1t is
not quite the thing to receive tips"
II think 1t is not quite the thing
to give them" he said with a little
smile she did not understand.
And, as she did not understand,
she made ne reply.

a superb generation Of men and

Stupid Looking" But
Generous.
DEAR MISS FAIRFAX:

DEAR MISS FAIRFAX:
A young man in my place OF
business has often asked me to go
out with him. He is very stupid
looking, but is good to me, and
would give me anything I asked
for. l am ashamed to go out with
him as my friends might see me
and criticise me. I am considered
good looking and can go with at
tractive men, which causes my
friends to envy me. I do not wish
to say anything rude or displeas-
ing to him. as 1 should like to
keep his acquaintance.
ANXIOUS.
am glad you realize how dis
honorable it is for a girl to al
low a young man to give her pres
ents and take her to places of
amusement when she has no in
terest in him 1t will not be diff
ficult for you to thank the young
man and tell him kindly, but de-
finitely, that you can't go out with
him.
