Dear Mrs. Thompson: l have
many freckles, light and dark, and
am always getting more.
What is the very best freckle
lotion? l never expose my skin to
the sun and wind. This is a serious
matter, for all my happiness de-
ponds on getting rid OF them.
DISCOURAGED.
Freckles are most difficult to re-
move. The following paste has
proved beneficial in many cases OF
stubborn freckles:
Oxide of zinc, one-half dram;
subiodide of bismuth, one-quarter
dram; dextrin, one and three
quarters drains; glycerin, one and
one-half drains.
Spread the paste upon the
freckles at night before going to
bed. In the morning remove what
remains with a little powdered
borax and sweet oil.
There is no absolute preventive
of freckles. However, by way OF
protection before exposure to the
sun or wind, rub in good cold
cream, wipe off with soft cloth,
and dust over with a good toilet
powder.
Dear Mrs. Thompson: l am 4
young girl Is years old. Last
spring l fell in love with young
man 20 years old. Later he joined
the army. When he went TO camp
he had his picture taken. l asked
him for one and he had an excuse
ofn
found he had given one of my girl
friends one. l told him about it and
he denied it. He has also broken
other promises to me. Shall l still
keep company with him? l love
him very much and he has told me
he loved me. DOUBTFUL.
Continue your regard for him as
friend if it gives you pleasure to
do SO, but do not expect love from
him. If he had loved you he would
have wanted you to have picture.
Dear Mrs. Thompson: l am
young woman of % and in love
with a very nice man of rs. love
him dearly and would like to be-
come his wife. We have been
going together for three years and
he is too bashful to propose. l
know it is not right for a woman
to propose. He has been telling
the boys he would like to marry
me. but does not know how to go
about it and / am ready to marry
him. FRANCES K.
Anyone who is able to talk about
his love affairs to his men friends
is not so bashful that he could not
find a way to propose. Leave the
matter to him and he will find
way if he really loves you.
Dear Mrs. Thompson: I am a
young lady % years of age. l
have been writing to a fellow over
seas for some time. Although 1
have never met him, he wishes me
to meet him on his return. He
writes very interesting letters.
Would it be the right thing for
me to let him call on me when he
returns? GOLD TOOTH.
Let the young man call on you
at your home After your parents
have met him and passed their
Judgment, you will be in a posi-
ton to be friends regardless of
your unconventional way of get
ting acquainted.
Dear Mrs. Thompson: When l
was a young girl l married the man
of my heart. We have a daughter
who is staying with her father and
step-mother and they do not get
along well. The father of the child
has asked about me. l was di-
vorced from him and got married
and so did he. l know he Is not
happy and it is the same with me.
Do you think he cares for me? He
has asked our daughter where l am
and what am doing and how often
she heard from me.
MRS. r. NJ. c.
Your former husband would
naturally be interested to know
where you are and about you. The
