June and Elopements.

Dear Miss Fairfax. Omaha Bee:
We are twin sisters of a wealthy
family. At the present we are home
from school in New York attending
our sisters wedding. She is 81
years of age and we are 20. We
cannot understand why mother will
let her marry and not us. for we
met two young men of wealthy and
good families living in New York
who have asked us to marry them.
This being our last year in school
we intend to elope in June on the
night of the graduation exercises.
VIII you please advise us about
this matter?
We only hope to see our letter
and answer in print
Respecting your advice, we re-
main,
GEORGETTE AND BOBETTE.
My dears. June and Opponents
are dreams of March. You are very
young-be careful.

All Mixed Up.
Dear Miss Fairfax, Omaha Bee: l
was just reading your advice in The
Omaha Bee and thought l would ask
| your advice about a very serious
problem which troubles me very
much.
I was married when 10 to a man
whom 1 thought l loved, but found
out I loved him as friend, not as
husband. A year ago this May
my husband sailed for France, and
since that time I have met another
man whom l really love, but who is
married. What would you do I'M
der the circumstances. / would
like to have this answered as soon
as possible in The Omaha Bee.
DOUBT.
Be very, very careful. You
thought you loved your husband
and tired Of him. You maye tire
of this man, too. Remember that
you would take him from his family.
