States the most wonderful govern

ropean royalties the circumstance of
birth controls the ambition of royal

been the preachment of autocrats,

ambitious kings seeking other worlds
to conquer.
In our American republic we elect
new national ruler once in four years,
and eight years has been the hitherto
limit. A third term, is or has been,
an unpopular theme, since George
Washington, the first of our preai

pCnned one of the very few superior
documents that were ever writ

A Beauty Specialist Gives Home
Made Recipe to Darken Gray Hair.

Mrs. NJ. D. Gillespie. a well-known
beauty specialist of Kansas City, re-
Gently gave out the following state
r.ent regarding gray hair:
Anyone can prepare simple
mixture at home that will darken
gray hair, and make it soft and
glossy. To half-pint of water add
l ounce of bay rum, a small box
of Rarbo Compound and Ia ounce
Of glycerine.
These ingredients can be pur-
chased at any drug store at very
little cost. Apply to the hair twice
week until the desired shade is
obtained. This will make a gray
haired person look twenty years
younger. 1t does not color the
scalp, is not sticky or greasy and
does not rub off."-(AdVt)

such a husband because she loves
him so, and because he's always
about to make a million on some
chimerical scheme, but money runs
through such a mans fingers like
water through a sieve, and the end
Of the family is in bankruptcy and
want that could So easily have been
prevented if only the woman had
| had enough sense and firmness to
hold on to her fortune.
The woman who turns her property
over to her husband robs her chill
dren Of just so much in case of her
death, for 1t is notorious that sec
ond wives, and the second set of
children, almost invariably come into
the bulk of the property in a mans
will, no matter from what source
the money came. There is not one
of us who does not know of some
case in which the children of the
first wife have been denied the edu-
cation they should have had, and
have had to get out and scuffle for

existence, while the children of the

automobiles on the money that came
through the first wife.
This is not to say that a woman
| who has property should not help
her husband. She should. She should

use her income tor the upkeep of
the family, but she is a foolish wom-

him, and takes the control of 1t

For one thing is. certain. If a
man is the right sort of a man he
will be glad to feel that his wife is

do to save her from it. And if he
is not the right sort of a man, then
she will reed more shan ever the
protection that money gives a woman.

Miss Mary Meredith,
The Semi Weekly Journal.
Atlanta, Ga.
Dear Madam am a girl of TWEEN
ty summers coming to you for ad-
vice. I went with 4 fellow about
six months regular. He bought me
several nice presents. Is that any
sign he loves me. We had a quarrel
about four weeks ago and he hasn't
been back since. Why does he try to
shun my presence? He told me he
loved me dearly and I'm sure I love
him. Please tell me what to do to
bring him back. He hasn't been
with any other girls. Should I go
with other boys? Is it any harm to
allow a boy to kiss you after he has
made love to you and always been
tue? VIII he come back If he
thinks I am to blame? Should pay
any attention to him when l see
him? SUNSHINE.
Answer-If the young man
gave you such nice presents, he
evidently must think something
of you. Perhaps you were to
blame for the quarrel. If so,
then it is up to you to make up
with him, write him note an
ask him to call. But if he is to
blame you will simply have to be
on your dignity. If he really
cares for you, he will eventually
make up with you. If he hasn't
been with other girls that is a
very good sign he still thinks of
you. [ don't think young girls
should form the habit of kissing
men. It is not only bad form
but cheapens a girl more than
anything else. Wait while and
see If he won't come back ]
don't believe in returning pres
ents unless it happens to be
costly gifts after one has be-
come engaged. Indian giving is
poor way to accept presents.
But young girls should be very
careful about accepting expen-
slve presents from men. fe-
male CRATER is a mighty poor
substitute for a real woman.

MARY MEREDITH'S ADVICE:
TO LONELY GIRLS AT HOME


| am coming to you for advice. |
am thirteen years old, weigh 103
pounds, am feet inches. Am
old enough to go with the boys as
friends? If SO. what age should
they be? 1 am liking a boy of
eighteen years of age. He seems to
like me very much. This boy l like
lives fifteen miles from me. How
old should [ be before I marry. al
though L am not thinking of mar
riage now. / go to school and am
in the fifth grade. l live in the
country. Do you think when a girl
marries she should work in the field?
7 will appreciate your advice very
much.
BLACK EYED f. NJ. G..
Adairsville, Ga.
My dear little girl, you are
only a child yet, and far too
Young to thing of marriage. So
often girls marry at sixteen and
eighteen, and realize when they
reach their twenties how very
foolish they've been. So many
lives have been wrecked by
youthful marriages.. Marriage is
a very serious obligation, and
YOU will realize when it is too
late. The romantic notions you
have now are but idle dreams.
1t is all right to go with young
men, provided you know them
very well, and your parents APP
prove. Keep at school. Educa-
ton is what every girl and boy
needs, and while you have the
opportunity, make the most of it.
