Dear Mrs. Thompson went
with a boy whom l thought quite
lot of. Yesterday he saw me
talking to boy whom l know well
and he got angry. He asked me
for his ring. Did I do the right
thing or not in giving 1t to him
Was he right in getting angry be-
cause l talked to the other boy?
what? 1 really don't think he
should have gotten angry. JILL.
The boy should not have got
angry because you talked to the
other boy; it was very petty of
him to do so. You could do moth
ing but return the ring under the
circumstances. 1t is he yho owes
you an apology. Do not he sorry
because you did nothing which was
not all right
Dear Mrs. Thompson: am
eighteen years of age. There is a
young man of twenty-one whom
have been going with Cor a year

never kissed me. but the other

l was naturally surprised because
had never thought of him in that
way, but l let him. Now l know
l do not love him. What shall ]

Assume your former attitude of
friendliness. When he asks to kiss
you again. tell him that he must
not, because you care for him only
as a friend.
Dear Mrs. Thompson: "a A
boy friend has been writing to me
asking me to keep company with
him. He asks me to answer his
letters. l don't care about going

engaged? A READER

correspond with him because there
is someone overseas who is coming

Butter has jumped nearly twenty cents a
pound for the reason, the dealers say, that the
government, which a few weeks ago cancelled
contracts for considerable supplies, has been
buying again for army needs. When the price
dropped the trade was perfectly willing to as
sumo the credit, but when quotations are soar
ing it is mighty convenient to shift the respon-
sibfIity to the shoulders of Uncle Sam.

without an army or even arms Nicaragua is
reported in great fear of invasion by armed
force of Costa Ricans Press dispatches give
the affair rather serious aspect, but Uncle
Sam, who has undertaken to be Nicaragua's
big brother. doesn't seem to be doing much
worrying, which is fairly reliable sign that
the outlook isn't as dark as it has been painted.

The Iowa legislature will be asked to re-
zeal the 2-cent fare law, with the proviso that
it be restored automatically together with for
mer intrastate freight rates, whenever there is
a return to private control If other states
follow this plan the private owners will be
less interested in getting the properties back
into their own hands.

A hopeful citizen rises to express the belief
that ice will be cheaper next summer, reason
ing that since a surplus Of coal this winter re-
suited in advances in prices the impending
scarcity Of ice next summer should have the
opposite effect The logic seems to be all right,
but the optimism unfortunately, is not likely

Suits for summer wear, as II first
requirement for good style, must look
cool. Many Of them accomplish this
fine beginning and achieve n happy
ending by being actually cool; they
are made of loosely woven, light
weight silk or fiber fabrics that are
the least burdensome of hot weather
suitings as well as the most fashion
able. Besides these there are those
unfailing pOngees and mOhairs with
advantages of their own to recon-
mend them, and linen Is still "in the
running" But In the race for prefer
euce with women of fashion these
lOng.familiar fabrics have been out
distanced by the newer weaves.
In the two suits shown In the pic
ture the one ut the left Is typical OF
the style that leads for suits made of
light jersey, silk and silk fiber suit
ings. Straight hanging coats and
skirts less narrow than those made
of the usual wool clothes are the rule
In these suits. The sweater coat Is the
model followed in nearly all Of them,
to be worn with or without vests. Vests
for midsummer, made of organdy and
other sheer cottons, often In combina-
ton with narrow laces, take the place
of vests of heavier fabrics that have
had such sweeping popularity. The
cool, three-quarter length sleeve is n
feature of this suit and 1t Is shown
with a satin vest having a leaf and
lattice design embroidered In gray and
silver. There Is narrow sash across
the front of the satin, the ends finish
ed with small fiower-like ornaments
made of silver ribbon.
The suit at the right Is a conven-
tiOnal tailored model of white cloth
with hair line stripes which may be
In brown. blue, green or black. The

To Remove Fruit Stains.


When fruit stains are fresh pour
boiling water steadily through them
and they will usually disappear. II the
water Is hard, borax or ammonia in a
small quantity should be added to the
water.
Fruit and wine stains. II dry, should
be soaked in cold water, like ten
stains. Then stretch the stained fabric
over q basin, rub with common salt
and pour boiling water through the
stain. Or It can be rubbed with lem.
on, instead of using boiling water. Re.
pent, II necessary, and II all Is not re-
moved let the rest wear out Some
fruit and wine stains, especially those
Of apple and pear, and some clarets,
are very difficult to remove. II they
are boiled gently (after soaking) in
some strong borax and water, well
rinsed, then hung out in the sunshine,
or better, left hanging out during a
frosty night. the stains will disappear
The articles should be dripping wet
when hung out.
TO Remove Grass Stains.
Grass stains will yield to the cologne
application, though thorough bath
In alcohol Is, perhaps, more certain.
Kerosene Is another liquid that may
be applied successfully to grass stains
while some recommend covering the
spots with a paste made from cream
Of tartar and water.
This should not be used In the case
Of colored goods. as the color Is like.
