Especially for Washington Women
DEAR MISS FAIRFAX:

DEAR MISS FAIRFAX:
am tWenty-six years Of age and
in the past seven years 1 have
earned from nifty to seventy-hYs
dollars per week. But have been q
good spender, and having travelled
all over the United States. Lately,
met . girl only nineteen years Of
age. and one evening when I took
her out with me she expressed her
love for me without my asking for
it,
She told me that her parents are
trying to discourage her toward
me, and want her to wait for her
old sweetheart who is overseas. so
upon hearing this I went to her
parents and explained my position
clearly to them and promised
would see her no more. But IT
seems to have left her with .
broken heart Did I do right7
IN DOUBT.
You do not say anything about
your own feelings in this affair, or
whether you are in love with the
young lady or not. If you are in
love with her, and she is In love
with you, you might wait for year
or SO and see how things develop.
think her telling you that she
was In love without your doing
anything to elicit such a conf
dence, would seem to indicate that
she was a little lacking in reserve.

Beth Have B4en MaPr4e6
DEAR MISS FAIRFAX:
am q young soldier and have
gone out several times with . young
woman four years older than NY
self. Now, this young woman can
never mean anything more 70 ne
than just q friend, because We, are
both married have been sepa-
rated from my wife two years; the
young woman's husband left her
six or seven years ago, and she
has not seen him In the last two
years.
Now, I have never told my friend
about my being married, whereas
she told me the nrst time I went
out with her about her marriage.
knew her about six months before
we went out together. II has
never been my intention to pose as
single, because 1 see nothing to be
gained that way. Should tell her
now, or wait until the subject
comes up again, IL It ever does
PERPLEEED.
This friend Of yours, II she
should happen to hear Of your
marriage through some one else,
might feel that you had shown q
lack Of confidence in her by not
telling her OF this yourself. It
might be we'll to mention the fact
that you have been married the
next time the opportunity occurs.
She Has Been Secretly MarTIeG.
DEAR MISS FAIRFAX:
have been married secretly for
over a year. but have never lived
with my husband, he coming to see
me about three nights q week, Just
as he did before we were married.
The reason I married MIN q year
ago was that he was in the army
and expected to be sent away, and
wanted me to become his wife be-
fore he left. He was never sent
away, as we anticipated. and is now
out Of the service.
The above Is merely a prelude
that you may understand the cir
cumstances. What really want sd-
vice on is the following: Ny hus-
band now wants me to stop work,
and live with him, and this should
like to do very much, but his finan-
cial standing is such that IL I did
this I would be deprived OF q GREAT
many things. 1 don't think I would
be happy under these conditions.
Understand, / wouldn't mind depriv-
ing myself Of some Of the comforts
1 now enjoy. but not to the extent
that would be necessary II I lived
with him. OF course, could live
with him and continue to work, but
this 1 would not care to do, nor
would my husband like 1t. N. B.
The trouble with your problem,
my dear N. B., is that you seem to
be unwilling to compromise with
the situation in which you are
placed. Many young married
women continue to work at the
present time; indeed, it is almost
the exception not to do so. And
it would be perfectly dignifed and
proper for you to do this for a
year or so, at least By that
time, your husband may be in
more prosperous circumstances. /
notice from your letter that you
do very good typewriting, indeed.
Has it ever occurred to you to do
a certain amount of this work at
home. This would enable you to
give up your office, which seems to
be the chief difficulty in acknoWl-
