an girl of twenty-four summers.
Am engaged to man of forty-six.
He is cripple, but has a good home
and don't have to work if he don't
want to. He seems to think there is
nobody in the world like me- though
l can't say [ think more of him than
anybody l ever saw, but still l like
him very much, just the same. So
please advise me on this subject and
let me know if you think we could
be contented and happy together.
"TISHA."
ANSWER: I think you would
be doing both yourself and this
man a very great injustice to
marry him, feeling as you do.
Nothing but a great, overwhelm-
ing love could make bearable
such a marriage. 1 think you
would both be miserable. Sup
pose you should marry this man,
and later should meet q man
whom you love and who loved
you. What would you do then?
Isn't it a fearful risk to take?
You cannot know how very UNI
happy you would be.
1 am a girl of sixteen and 1 am in
love with a boy of eighteen and he
says he loves me dearly and he has
asked me to marry him and [ told
him l would. DO you think we are
too young? He has been writing to
me and also several others boys have
written to me, but 1 didn't answer
some of them. DO you think I did
right as l didn't like them at all?
GLADYS NJ.
ANSWER: You are much too
young for sWeethearts or love
affairs. Why not content your
self with some more wholesome
amusement and leave love affairs
until you are old enough to APP
preciate the dignity of real love.

vince the widower that you are

MARY MEREDITH'S ADVICE
TO LONELY GIRLS AT HOME

L am girl of eighteen. 1 am
in love with a boy twenty years old.
He told me that he loved me better
than any other girl he ever saw and
ever will see. He made a date with
me and never came. What would
you do about it. He has been
wanting to make another date with
me and l won't let him come.
A LONELY GIRL.
ANSWER; If the boy had a
legitimate excuse-a really good
reason for breaking his engage
ment with you-forgive him and
give him another chance. 1t Is
foolish to break real friendship
because of an unavoidable acct
dent.

When your nail-studded, leather heel
strikes a hard pavement or floor, it gives
your whole body jolt. Every jolt or
shock contributes just that much to the
tired-out feeling you experience at the
end of the day.

you take 5000 steps a day. Every day
you get 5000 joltsl Think how this re-

But if they were forbidden to follow this calling, what would be the result?

In order to gets many men, had to seek assist ance from almost every one of my con freres in the trade. and even so l had difficulty in delivering the goods. Another of my biggest jobs consisted of supplying a great number of sand wichmen to advertise the dramatic productions that were made here some years ago by Mir. k. II. Sothern, the American actor. His press agent was what they call on the other side of the Atlantic real live wire. He had all the SandWitchmen dressed In medlaeNal costumes, put them with their boards on tops of specially-engaged omni- buses, and drove them all around town. All went well until they reached the city. There an ordinance promptly bounced on the procession and took the names and addresses of number of the men. The newspapers. of course, made much of the incident, and thus the thing was even a better advertise ment than Mir. Sothern's press agent had hoped for in his widest dreams.
 London sandwichmen," Mir. Felton went on, wear all sorts of costumes at different times. Everybody has seen lem rigged out in towels to advertise Turkish baths, as Chinamen and Amer ican convicts to advertise theatrical at fractions; as Charlie Chaplins and in many other roles. For the purpose of advertising certain play we rigged one venerable sandwicher' up in the most correct West End outfit--silk hat, morn Ing coat, and all the rest of it, and to everybody's surprise, when this opera tion was completed, he looked almost the double of well-known theatrical manager. As it happened, this manager chanced to see the sandwichman, spot ted the likeness to himself, and convinced that the thing was intentional. and that the intention was tso ridicule him, made an efnbittered complaint to us To ap- | pease him we selected another man for the part

 Among other noteworthy finds among sandwichmen are: portion Of a pearl necklace. value $500, gold watch with a ssl and pIece of chain, worth S125, a pocket book containing S150 in golden sovereigns of peace time
