MARY MEREDITH'S ADVICE
TO LONELY GIRLS AT HOME

Dear Madam: I am coming to you
for advice: | am girl of IA sum-
mers. There is a boy who seems
to love me dearly, but is bashful.
sends me all kinds of good news.
He has been married once-he and
his wife are not together. There
is also a boy of IA who seems to
think a lot of me, and L like him
better than the other one. How can
show the younger boy that I love
him and want to be friendly? I
don't think it would be very nice for
me to talk with the Oldest boy, do
you? Is it any harm for my broth
er-in-laW to give me a wrist watch
Do I write a good hand? I hope to
see this in the next Journal, as 1
am motherless child. I am,
A BEAUTY.
A Beauty: Take my advice
and let that married man alone.
He is too wise for girl of your
age. Run along and enjoy your
self with he younger boy. That
man VIII has been married Ias
no business making love to you.
And girls are to blams for en-
couraging any advance. Doa't do
it; only harm can come of it. I
wish with all my heart that
young girls would take this adj
vice from me. Would you will
ingly go into a persons home
and steal tS jewelry, or any other
thousand times more harmful
and degrading to steal a W0man'S
husband from her. At the eX-
pense of your good name and
character. For a married man
will lie to a girl nine times out
of ten, and in his heart con-
dennis her weakness for him.
Marriage laws should be sacred
and the man or woman who will
fully acts the vandal. IS mighty
ordinary and no good will ever
come to them. Yes, you write a
very good hand.
Dear Miss Meredith: We are two
boys from PickenS, S. c., coming to
you for advice. I, the twenty-four-
year-old one, have been going with
girl one year or longer and l think
a lot of her. 1 don't think she cares
anything for me. How can 1 find
out if she cares anything for me?
girl, whic his the best way?
Your advice will be greatly appre-
ciated. BLUE EYES.
Your questions are much like
Black Eyes. I have told him
pretty much what you want to
know. If you want to find out if
d girl loNeS you, WdIcn ner WneH
she is with another boy; also, see
how many dates you can make
with her and if she likes to
please you, and if she acts kind
of shy in your presence. Then
the surest way is to ask her. 1
am sure she will tell you the
truth. And if you want to marry
the girl and expect to ask. for her, q
just go to her father and mother
and tell them in manly sort of
way, that you love their daugh-
ter, and want to marry her, if
they will give permission. Be
honest and straightforward; it
isn't so hard, and her parents
will appreciate the courtesy.
Here comes lonely boy in trou-
Bile to you for advice. 1 am in love
with Miss Eva Van -. aged eight
cen years, and 1 am eighteen years
not seem to care for me. want
you to advise me how I can win her
love back. I want you to write my
name in print. 1 want her to see
this. So goodby.
ROBERT HENRY THOMAS.
You really must be in love if
you want me to advertise it for
you. This is rather a silly thing
to do, and if I were the girl I
would feel greatly embarrassed,
to think you would do such a
thing. I cannot tell you how to
win her love so it will stay, be-
cause I'm no sorceress or fortune
teller. I cannot fortell the fu-
ture by your handwriting, but if
the girl cares anything at all for
you, make it grow by being just
a little bit better than the rest,
and at the same time do not let
her trample on your affections.
Don't let her bully you, but have
pride and act as indifferently as
you decently can, and work hard
to get her to love you. Perse-
verance conquers in the end, 1
am told. SO go to it.
I am coming to you for advice l
am a boy IS years old, and am in
