MARY MEREDITH'S ADVICE
TO LONELY GIRLS AT HOME

i've happy to marry at the age 0.
nineteen? L have brown hair, blue
eyes, five feet five inches tall, and
weigh 1872 pounds. How long should
1 wear my dresses? Will patent
leather pumps be stylish this sum-
mer?
ROB'S GIRL.
Being engaged and marrying
seems to be the greatest idea
any CIR! ever had. I'll admi;
it is very sweet, but somehow,
when a boy is only twenty and
inexperienced it seems a pitt
to see him shoulder the respou
sibility of a wife. That is why
so many men at thirty figurr
out whats the use" All the
ambition and energy has been
taken out of them because the
burden OF making a living for
two has been greater than they
realized. The man should be
old enough to understand what
NE is doing. And I don't think
u boy twenty does. Girls can
marry at that age because their
minds are more developed than
the mans. And they should
marry a man at least four or five
years older. However, If you
desire to marry and think you
will be happy, L wish you good
luck. Patent leather pumps are
very stylish, also pumps with
bows tied across the instep also.
Dear Madam: am girl of eight
cen summers coming to you for
advice, for 1 have no one to tell
me. I am going with boy of eight.
cen. 1 have been knowing this
young man for about seven years.
He is a nice boy. My father does
not care if 1 talk to him. Do you
think that 1 am too young to marry:
If so advise me for I have no
mother to ask. She died when
was seven years old. I have blue
eyes and brown hair and weigh one
hundred and four pounds. Please ad-
wise me what to do, marry or stay
with my father and brother; il
this is worth an answer please let
me hear from you. I know this
young man and he says he loves
me. BLUE EYES NORA.
You have been going with the
young man quite a while, and
you ought to know something
about him. If he has waited
this long for you, 1 dare say he
can wait a while longer. If you
have a good home and are con-
tented and reasonably happy l
don't see why you should be in
a hurry to leave 1t. Remember
when you marry you are taking
a big chance. My advice is to
wait awhile longer.
am bachelor coming to you fol
advice. I am thirty-two years old
I love girl twenty-four years ole
very much; I called on her years
ago when she and were young, but
she treated me a little wrong and
1 quit calling; that has been about
seven years ago; I met her severa
times since and she treated me very
nicely, so I called on her about two
weeks ago and she treated me rea

Perhaps the young lady cares
for you only as friend and does
not wish you for STEADY COM
pany." But to ease your mind
you might write her note and
ask her if she has considered the
request you made In regard to
calling on her. You might tell
her of your admiration for her,
and how much pleasure it would
give you. In that way you might
kindle a little real interest in
her heart for yourself.
