Dear Mrs. Thompson: I wish a
little advice on q matter that is a
family affair. Where I room and
board there is a daughter who is to
be married soon. Like most fam
lilies where there is to be wedding,
all conversation is about clothes.
The other evening there was
some talk about the articles bride
should have and l voiced my senti-
ments as follows: That she should
have a coed supply of clothing, bed
linen, table linen and such things.
That the brides parents should foot
all bills connected with a small
wedding except the flowers, and if
there is a taxi, the bridegroom also
pays for that.
told the girl that inasmuch as
she is working, she ought to be buy
ing her household linens as she was
supposed to furnish them
Later the mother said people
should stay out of family affairs
and mind their own business" l
am sorry for what I said, but am
still sure that I am right. Will you
please tell me il l am correct. She
is an only daughter and the father
makes a fair salary. M. B. w.
1t is often a trying situation to
sit quietly by and know that people
are making mistakes, but it is
usually more tactful to wait till one
is asked for an opinion, before ex-
pressing it, and it IL much more apt
to be appreciated IL not given until
asked for.
A bride should have clothes
enough for q year, and as you say
table and bed linen, towels and
fancy linens. The brides family
bears all the expense Of the we'd
ding except the brides bouquet, the
minister's fee and the carriages that
bring the minister to the wedding
and take the bridal couple to their
train or their immediate destination,
The bride gives souvenirs to her
attendants and the groom to his
best man and ushers.

l could want. Then he takes a
spell and won't do a thing.
What do you think of such
man, and what shall | do? We
hardly ever have any cross words.
WIFE AND MOTHER.
I think you had better stop work
ing. Your husband is ambitious
for the home, but lazy. The money
he spends on other women should
be used for you and the children,
and nine chances out of ten he will
use it that way if he feels RESPONSE
bility.
1t will not be easy for you to give
up your business life, because
doubtless 1t furnishes a great deal
of interest for you. For the sake
of happiness in your home, how
ever, give your husband chance
to do his duty.

much and she says she loves me.
have tried to plan some way so
that l could be with her. Please
advise me. W. ". NJ.
About the only path open to you
is to marry the girl. Do not Do
hasty about this because you are
very young, and doubtless not finan-
cially ready to marry. With the
girl as your incentive, work hard
and save money. Then in q rev
years you will be we'll able to take
her away from her father and step
mother.
It is unfortunate that the girl IS
denied the right Of having young
men friends. She is old enotsn
now.

Failure Il venereal PropAylaxis.

Failure Il venereal PropAylaxia.
In Great Britain . committee ap-
pointed to investigate among other
health problems the prevention Of
venereal disease in civil life and re-
port to the newly established min
istry Of health, concludes that there
has mot been SUFFICIENT evidence Of
beneficial results gained from the
distribution Of prophylactic packets
to prove the value Of the method or
to justify recommending its Official
encouragement among the people.
l publish this in order to explain
to numerous correspondents why l
NO not feel like informing readers
about such prophylaxis.
The British committee concluded
that the issue Of prophylactic
packets Containing the drugs and
other items used for prophylaxis)
gives rise to q false sense Of Sc
curity and thus encourages the TAX
ing Of risks which would not other
wise be incurred. and that the most
carefully organized packet" sys-
tenn such as exists in the British
army but which would be unattain-
able in civil life, base not produced
q sufficient reduction in the preva-
lence of venereal disease as to coun-
teract the disadvantages of this At
tempted prophylaxis in civil life.
The committee did not question
the value of prOphylaxis when prop
erly employed under the direction
of the physician or medical officer,
but on the contrary affirmed that
certain drugs. il properly applied,
are efficacious against venereal dis
ease"
The committee condemned the use
OF prophylactic measures except by
physician or medical officer or un-
der immediate medical supervision,
and for very good reason which
We cannot discuss here.
There is still one very good way
to avoid venereal infection, and
that is to avoid the occasion of it.
A normal, vigorous, healthy, strong
man can and does and must avoid
such occasion The weak, degener-
ate, diseased, mentally defective in
dividual is the one who thinks this
is not so.

something more than expectation.

There are kind folks and clean folks,
And folks of doubtful past;
There are small folks and smart folks,
And folks of high degree
But plain folks are the real folks,
Oh. they're the folks for me-
There are bright folks and dull folks.
And folks whose tastes are queer,
There are poor folks and rich folks,
And folks who rich appear,
There are young folks and old folks,
And folks whose age We doubt,
But the plain folks are the real folks,
We cannot do without.
