They are everywhere,
And we feast and dance
And we sing and love

Where nothing but happiness

Dear Miss Fairfax, Omaha Bee.
Have read your advice to Love-

the letters are not all strictly heart
affairs, am writing you for advice.
Am country school teacher and
have three darling scholars, all be-
ginners, but the neighborhood is 50
quarrelsome. / teach from 10 a. m.
to 8 p. m, as the parents thought
the regular time too long, so. am
able to take piano and guitar les
son each week. Now, last winter
man in the district sent his IA
year4old hired hand to school. a
sixth grade pupil, and insisted on
my, teaching him full time. which
would break UP nay dear little; kim
dergarten and take music away
from me. and I simply love it.
said I'd resign, and then the board
said from 10 to was long enough,
as he could study at home. but the
man was mad and sent him to a
bigger school and tried to ruin my
reputation by telling people about
it. He said some very unkind things
about me, but wasn't right to stand
by my principle as L did? Now,
this mans brother Is home from the
army, and as they live near, I meet
him daily at the school house and
have learned to love him dearly.
He says he. loves me ana is very
tender and sweet to me, but never
takes me out, and people tell me he
is making fool of me. Do you
think he is? We are engaged. but
he never talks Of being married and
7 hate to mention it first. Do you
think I should? He used to be en-
gagged to another girl. but swears he
doesn't love her and says he quit
her long ago. Do you think he did :?
I am told he took her to the show
last week. hope you will print my
letter soon, as I am puzzled.
A TEACHER.
You did exactly right. Be very
careful of any man who tells you
that he loves you and who Is willing
to become engaged. but who avoids
the subject of marriage. Too, the
man who loves you will be proud to
entertain you at different places. I
fear that you are wasting your time
with this man and advise you to
try for school in different quar-

We were both more tired than we
knew, and we uttered nothing but
the most necessary words until we
were costly settled in the library
with Lillian's beautiful tea service
before us. Betty, who had brought
up the tray lowered near US, with
manner that seemed to me to be-

noticed it also. for she spoke to the
woman brusquely but kindly.
