They are to be here all week and next Sunday, and will speak every night at St. Johns with the exception of Saturday night. MT. Mercer's ad- dress last night was based on an analysis of the recent book, '"The Devils Age," written by prominent New York corporation lawyer. He spoke of the ages quest for wealth and pleasure and its marked lack of discipline, and drove home his points with telling illustrations. His topic tonight will be ''The One Class of Peo- pie God Cannot Hep.' MT. Hadley will speak Tuesday night on the sub- ject, "The Hatred of Jesus" The hour for services is 8 o'cock.

LAST CALL FOR THE WOMEN
 TO REGISTER

"It's a case of now or never" said Mrs. A. M. Comley, register of women voters. There is only one more day left for the women of Bridgeport to come to the City Hall and register in order to vote, in the most import ant local and national questions which will come up this year. A great many women have already registered but that number is not the quota we are working for, we want all the women to come, that means each and every female 21 years of age or over.''
 There is nothing hard, troublesome or uncomfortable about registering. All one has to do is to visit the city hall, main floor, between the hours of o'clock and o'clock. The first question asked is the name, then the address,. and if she is over 21 years old. One of the incest things about the registration for women, is that the number of years at present does not have to be given. The whole procedure does not take two minutes and after it is over the only thing to dois to wait until after the 9th of October, then again visit the City Hall and be sworn in as voter, then, one is free to vote just as her father, husband or brother does The mak- ing of voters will last until the 18th of October.

 Dear Miss Fairfax:
 have a dear friend who was en- gagged to be married, he being thirty years and his sweetheart twenty-five When another young lady came into his life he threw his sweetheart off and now regrets what he has done. She never returned the ring and he hopes for that reason, she may come back. He wants to make up, but sees no way, for he has too much pride. Hasn't seen her for one year and was told she is going about with another chap. Would you please let me know what he can do? % L. B. The young man must forget his pride--or conquer it. Surely he can not for one minute imagine that tn e girl he pilted is going to come back 1 to him without great deal of woo- ing and waiting.

How Many People In This City

There is one great drawback to re- coverv for a person who has been dick. and that is poor devitalized hIood and consequent weakness, ner- vousness and depleted strength. If people in this city who have been i'll End are still in a weakened condition could only realize the value of Vinol to enrich the blood, create a hearty appetite and restore strength, drug gists would not be able to supply the demand.

A Man Without Shame.

Dear Miss EairfaX:
 am a single girl of eighteen and have been a resident of the town I live in since birtk. A man of thir- ty-eisht, also a life resident of this place, married and the father of two children, declared his love for me a month or so ago, but states at the same time that he loves his wife and make no difference in their lives Please advise me how to end his in fatuation. A WORRIED GIRL.
 Put an end to this at once. Don t worry about doing it tactfu1ly or with consideration for the man. He de- serves none. It is absurd for him to tells you that the insulting affair he's trying to start with you won't effect his wife and children. 1t will either break up their home or ruin your life--or both. The way to end g thing like this is ito refuse to have anything to do wit hthe man. Don'1

ADVICE TO THE
 LOVELORN
Secretly in Love.
By Beatrice Fairfax

Dear Miss Fairfax:
 am twenty-one and have girl chum, of my own age who is going about with a young man whom I have grown to love. My girl friend has repeatedly noticed my depression when in the company of the young man, and has often asked me to tell her the reason. I have been tempted to tell her many times, but realized that it would ruin her happiness The young man has always regarded me in friendly attitude and has taken me for a good sport. The question wish to ask you is this: a Do you think that it would be best to dis continue seeing him, as I am sure that at some future time I am bound to betray my love? B. B. Gl
 Surely you aren't going to let your own fancies cost you a girls friend ship, a mans respect and, possibly the happiness of every one concern ed. If you haven't the strength o1 |, character to overcome your own un- fortunate notion, you'd better run away. But you'd admire yourself more i fyou stayed and fought it out with yourself.
