Dear Mrs. Thompson: Can you tell

ern town, where I was reared Since
coming here I have met many nice
people, but they were either children
or much older than 1. At home I was
always accustomed to going with the
very best people of town and we en-
tertained my friends in my home a
great deal, and so naturally am lone
some here. M. p.
You should join the Y. w. c. A. and
also attend the church which appeals
to you most. Both of these organiza-
lions will. take an interest In getting
you acquainted. Tell your friends who
are either older or younger than you
desire that you are lonely and would
like to meet people of your own age.
Doubtless they can assist you.
Dear Mrs. Thompson: am eight

man is too old for you. At the age

you cannot judge the depth of your

THE STATE oF TRADE.

The settling down of labor unrest
and a diminution of strikes during the
past thirty days, says Henry Clews in
his Financial Review, is one of the
most hopeful elements in the general
business situation. Taken with the
stronger attitude of the government
toward Socialistic and anarchistic agi-
tation, it gives promise of a much bet
ter Industrial outlook than had been
thought likely to exist at this time.
Industrially speaking, he continues,
the business situation at the opening
of the new year appears to be more
factories booked ahead for long
periods but the basic industries of the
nation, such as those engaged in pro-
ducing steel, coal and fundamental
textiles, are evidently no more than
able to meet the demands upon their
resources. All this, he says, points to
a very active years work, if financial
difficulty can be avoided.
Bradstreet's says: Strong opening
in many lines. Prices make new high
levels. Steel in active demand but
mills order books congested. Lum-
Der, grain. coal. coke and steel inter-
ests hampered by car shortages. Rail-
roads buying rails but few cars. New
high levels for clearings. Squirt in
failures following year of lowest bust
ness mortality"
The firms food index for the past
week based on the prices per pound
Of thirty-one articles used for food, is
1924. the highest on record, and COM
pares with s5.07 the previous week
and $500 for the week ending Janu-
airy 8, 1919. Last weeks number
shows a gain of 3.s per cent over the
previous week ard of as per cent over
the like week of last year.
A bulletin issued by the Guaranty
Trust company of New York says:
The purport of the reviews and
son of the year is that the last twelve
months may well be described as
hectic" and that the year now be-
/ ginning should be one of the best in
our history. The world shortage of
! goods continues, and Europe especial
ly is clamoring for food. raw materials
and machinery. America has the
things the world needs, and the labor
! and capital to make them available to
the needy, but labor is restless under
better wages and shorter hours, and
capital hesitates to extend credit while
| the terms OF peace are unknown.
! Those who see the opportunities. and
who realize the only true remedies for
| the past and the only hope for the
1 future. are urging the country to work
/ harder and to spend less. There is no
i present indication of a decline in
prices. Business everywhere is good,
labor is in strong demand. and there
are few shadows to dim the bright
prospects of America during the COM
ing year.

the movies, Robert asked me to mar
~ him. 1 was happy, oh. so happy!
because I loved him. 1 had pretended
to Mary Ryan that he was no more
to me than others, but it wasn't SO. He
meant all the world to me, all of hap
piness. And I told him so, and in the
telling felt no shame. Why should L?
Why should any girl, once she knows
the man to whom she was given her
heart honestly loves her and wants to
have her for his wife?
I have no patience with the sickly
sentimentality that makes a girl make
pretence of holding her lover off be-
cause he might think her anxious

Mary Ryan helped me in every way.

of yourself. why. might as well help
even if I don't like your getting mar
ried." she had grumbled as she stitch
