When Jim didn't come back 10
town on the second day after our
visit to Betty and Terry, 1 began 10
worry about Terrey's stock.
Because I thought some MEMBER OIL
the Harrison family ought to watch
over Terry's investment, pousht
naner. turned to the financial page
and ran my finger down the list until
found the stock Jim had told him
to buy. There it was. with iour col-
rmns of fingures that told Its story
for the day: "OpenIng, S51a; hlgh' 80;
low. 90; closing. % S-4."
Closing my eyes, I did a littlel hs-
airing. Jim had told Terry to buy at

said that probably would be 81. 80
he still was perfectly safe on his b.
point margin, even II tho stock mad
fallen below what ~ paid for II. III
1T fell any moro tomorrow Jim
would be there to put up more mar
gin for Terry.
That seemed all clear enough. SO
II went in to take off my hat and coat
pand freshen up for dinner. But ]
couldn't dismiss Terry from my mind

Dear Terry! What anxiety there
had been in his voice. How he longed
to have his proud. tortured Betty
whole again! And TO think. a little
stock deal-cold figures. what
would once have considered a dry
as-dust financial transaction:-might
give Betty back the use of her right
hand! Something made me go to the
telephone and call Terry.
You aren't uneasy about your
stock. are you?" l asked after l had
inquired about Betty.
Not Bit" replied Terry heartily
IT'S on the rise again. and though
when it went to the lowest-29-it

old Jimmie put up bit and carried
me. So that's all right"

KEEPING HIM IN RESERVE

After an effort of two years / re-
newed my friendship with a young
woman lost through quarrel.
Throughout the four months of our
renewed friendship 1 have noticed
that the affection that existed prior
to our quarrel is lacking. My belief
Is that she is considering a proposal
from another friend. but does not in
the meantime want to lose my friend
ship, in case the other friend disap-
points her.
l am still in the military service
and therefore cannot force the Issue
on account of depleted finances: how
ever, | would like to find out whether
am correct without injuring the ex-
listing friendship. Can you give. me
any advice in solving this question
IN your column?

You must regard the young woman
as very cold -blooded proposition if
You think her capable of keeping one
man on the string while she makes
sure of the intentions of another
Why not talk to her as frankly as
you have written to me? You care
about her and as your reasons for not
proposing Immediately is an honor
able one you are certainly entitled to
a definite answer.

Advice to the Lovelorn
She is Lame.

Dear Miss Fairfax: I am a stem
ographer, nineteen, and l am Grip
pied. BY this do not mean so bad
ly that it embarrasses me, but L
wear a brace to enable me to walk.
Do you think, Miss Fairfax, that
my being afflicted as l am could be
the reason l have no one that l can
call n true friend? L have always
made an effort 10 please others, and
when l am out and any men or boys
are around, l can't seem to talk or do
any thing to my advantage, but when
/ am out with only girls, l feel right
at home. When out and n young
man asks to escort me home, |
really don't know what to say, for
l don't want him to take me homie
out of pity and l can't ask him right
out. Can you help me?
A girl (calling herself my friend)
told me L ought never to go out with
young men, and never, never think
of marriage, because l would be a
draw back in his social life, and were
/ to have children, they might be
afflicted as l am.
l am unhappy and lonely; some
times l get depressed and can't find
the bright side of life at all
Lonesome.
My dear girl. if you have many
friends" like the one You quote, I
don't wonder that you are morbid
and unhappy. Id drop that young
lady and every one who encourages
you to think unhappily. And
should try to forget the lamcness as
much as possible. When young men
ask to see you home accept, the little
attention gracefully as a matter OF
| course.
In regard to your marriage. only
| a physician can advise you. But IL
! you stop and think you must re-
member the names of many well
known men and women who have
made happy marriages in spite ol
! physical disability.
To mention a few in the past
there was Byron, whom half the
women were mad about, in spite OF
his club foot. And there was Pope, a
hunchback, who had many love az
fairs with most distinguished women
In Love With Musician.
Dear Miss Fairfax: l am deeply in
love with a musician, whom ! feel
reciprocates my feeling. He is an
artist of fame, and is somewhat inn
practical and shiftless. I feel that
my influence could change him. My
parents object strenuously to even
our friendship because of the above
mentioned faults.
Now I, too, am considered tai
ented pianoist and would not be con-
tent unless I could marry one of at
least my equal. S. o. S.
If you happen to be eighteen,
twenty or twenty three. l should be
guided by my parents in this matter,
for the present at least. IT. however,

France about the boys departure.

ter, Mrs. d. NJ. Butler. greeted the re-
porters breexily. but utterly refused 20
pose for the photographers. even after
no had been assured the Secretary OF

with scorn, whats that to me?"
Warren apparently either had been

I'm not going to be eick and there's

boys general answer to scores OF quss"
lions put to him by Newspaper cor"
respondents.
The Secretary said in regard TO the
proposed parade of the Seventy-Ssv-
enth Division: New York has been
splendidly generous in welcoming troops
from all parts of the United States and
deserves to have the opportunity to
welcome her own. The only question
involved is the ability to get the msm-
bers OF the division here close enough
together to prevent the blockading OF
other troops. I have been told that
arrangements have been made In
Europe to send all parts OF the divi-
sion home as close together as possible.
and II that can be arranged there will
be no difficulty about a parade"
