Dear Mrs. Thompson: I am
young man 25 years of age. Sew
eraI years ago l was in love with
a girl of exceptional type. She
died. For a while | thought
never would get over her death.
None of the girls seemed like her
and don't now-that r. to me.
will admit I am very old fashioned
in my social ideas. Probably ! eX-
pect more of a girl than / should.
l go to church, parties, dances
and places of amusement. Seem
ingly l have got to the place where
all girls look alike TO me. am
not looking fOT gold woman, and
l am not pinning roses on myself.
/ have a nice little home, nearly
paid for, and neatly furnished. /
don't believe there is a man in this
world who would love to have q
wife any more than myself
make a neat salary and can pro-
vide for a wife adequately.
Can you suggest anything for a
man in my predicament? l.. l.
Seek love and it will fee from
thee: fee love and it will follow
thee" / have quoted this old say
ing many times because it answers
the problems of many people.
You are very young; a man OF

of finding the right girl. 1t is
useless TO search desperately, be

Although you feel I'm a position
to marry now, you will he even

to devote to your work. Restless
ness can be overcome by action
only. Spend Icss time thinking
about Yourself and more time
working and exercising.
Dear Mrs. Thompson: I am IS

years my senior. He has often told
me how much he loves me, but has
never mentioned marriage. Should
we go on like this? | really do not

PERPLENED.
A man should wait until he Is
in a position to marry before he
asks the girl A boy OF 20 would
hardly feel ready to assume such
a responsibility. He is right in not
asking you to become engaged, but
he is wrong in speaking of love.
Tell the boy that both of you are
too young to talk of love now and
that he must stop speaking OF It, II
will not be necessary to give
him up.
In reply to 9O57374: If you are
a wise young man, you will fall in
with the girls decision. Let her
have her own way without any pro-
test from you. During the time
you are forbidden her society SO
out with another girl. She will
hear about it and see you, and nine
chances out of ten will send for
you at once. A girl does not like
watch dog devotion. She wants
to feel free to enjoy more than one
man. II you expect to win and
keep this girls love, you may show
more judgment and indifference.
Dear Mrs. Thompson: ~ I have
very pale lips. AS do not want to
use paint, what would you advise
me to DO? l feel well.
~ l have scarcely any eye
lashes. l would like 10 know how
to make them longer HOMELY.
% Probably you have not
enough blood. Exercise every day
in some way. During the summer /
you can swim, play tennis or go
for long walks. In winIer you
should have your exercise, too, /
even If 1t Is not quite so agreeable
to take. Go for a three-mile Nalk
every day to begin with end see if
