Dear Mrs. Thompson: l am keeping
company with a young man who is
short. He is the same size that I am,
and my girl friends say l should go
with fellow taller than myself. This
man is good to me and takes me to
shows twice week. l like him real
well. He is twenty-four and l am eigh-
teen.
There is another fellow who takes
me out, but he is over thirty. Do you
think l should stop going with others?
BROWN EYES.
You are too young to settle down to
one man. l do think that a man in
his thirties is rather old for you. For
a year or two at least enjoy the com.
partnership Of variousy Dung men. The
first friend you mention should not be
cast aside because he is short. Such
thing does not matter since you are
cOngenial.
Dear Mrs. Thompson: am twenty
four years Of age and widow. There
is young widower with whom I would
like to get acquainted. When l see
him or meet him he tips his hat and
always answer. He told a lot of his
friends that he would like to get ac-
Quainted with me and that he would
like to take me out.
What should l do? FRANCES.
Leave the matter entirely to the
man. Since you have mutual friends
he will have little difficulty in becom-
ing better acquainted if he really

weeping every hour because our hopes are lying

was first established, or in 1900. 1t
was entirely destroyed by fire in the
war of 1912 and also suffered serious

a building that could not be burned.
Result. the present structure, com

perfectly adapteA for the convenient
use and storage Of books Of any large
library in the world. likewise the larg-

It consists of three stories, base

can nulify.
Must the pressure of population bring about
such unhappy conditions always? Is there nc
remedy? Matters cannot continue to 60 they
are going The endless chain cannot continue tc

tax theory would do what is necessary. His know

and he predicted the same course for this -
