always wishing it was this other
boy. 1t makes him angry for me
to go with other boys. But L don't
want to marry until I'm twenty-one,
and L don't believe in long engage
ments. L love him very dearly, and

You have decided to wait until
you are of age, that is while
off, and you shouldn't devote
your whole time to one boy. If
he loves you he will wait for
you. Many things happen in
two. years, and il you have no
desire to marry now, you should
GO go with others and enjoy your
mind about this boy and fail in
love with some one else. That
has happened before, you know.
I almost feel [ know you. I Won

nor seem to care so much for me.

boy, aged tWenty-one, who has gone
north with the expectations of my
being his wife when he comes back,
and / do not love him, but have told
him do and am now ashamed of
having fooled him. Please help me
out Of this and tell me how to make
the other one love me- Perhaps I
am rather affectionate, but it was
born in me and L can't help it. If
you know of any way that I might
overcome this please tell me? My

Kitty: I will tell you this,
[ am old in experience, not so
old in years. Life has taught
me great deal and I learn from
others and L have a very deep
sympathy for those in trouble or

taking a small dose of Squibbs'
soda in the mornings and before
you retire at night for the pim-

the attitude of a friend rather
