A Useful Friend,

DEAR MISS FAIRFAX:
l am young man of twenty-five,
considered good-looking. and am
an exceptionally good dancer. For
the past three years / have been
going with a girl three years my
junior. At first this girl seemed
to like me, and l fell deeply in love
with her, but her love for me SEEM
ed to disappear. She would ask me
to take her uptown on various err
rands in by Ford" but she would
never go out with me unless II was
to an expensive show. 1 have tried
in vain to regain her love by send
ing her flowers, presents. etc. OF
late have been going with other
women, but have not seen any signs
of jealousy on her part. Please
advise me if you think 1 can regain
her love again. FATE.
Evidently the convenience of
your Ford" and the attendance
at the expensive shows" exacted
by this young lady were Of more
value to her than your love, and
if she displays no jealousy be-
cause of your attentions to. other
women and your generosity in
sending her flowers, etc, has
failed to regain her love, do you
not think it would be wise for you
to conclude that she never really
loved you, and try to put her out

BE Sure.

DEAR MISS FAIRFAX:
Being a constant reader OF your
page, would like to have your adj
vice about my love affairs. l have
been going with a young man for
the past three years, but have felt
toward him more as a sister than a
sweetheart He left for France
about a year ago, and just before
leaving asked me IL I would marry
him on his return. 1 told him
would, but have since found that
this promise was more through
sympathy than true love. About
three months ago I met another
young man, whom l dearly love.
am sure this young mans love for
me is as great if not greater than
the one in France. He also has
asked me to marry him, and as l am
sure my love for him is true, / have
promised to marry him within the
next wear. As ! did not want the
young man in France to feel dis
heartened have kept up my CORE
spondenee with him. He is due to
return soon. As have made up my
mind not to marry him, for l know
I could never be happy with him,
how am to let him know that | do
not care for him. l know il will be
hard for him to understand that do
not love him. If you care to know,
our ages are near twenty-one.
WORRIED.
1t is unfortunate that you girls
are not surer of your hearts and
more constant in the bestowal of
them when you become engaged,
as much unhappiness might be
spared many of those poor lads
who have lived through hard days
lover there" cheered and heart
ened by the thought of faithful,
loving sweethearts at home. The
only honorable thing for you to do
