NARY MEREDITH'S ADVICE
TO LONELY GIRLS AT HOME

expect you to do the work Of
boy or farm hand. You are old
enough to get some enjoyment
out of the society of other girls
and boys. You show a whole
some, healthy disposition and [
admire you for not wanting to
entertain the young man alone.
1t is so seldom I get letters like
yours it is quite a pleasure to
answer them. I am fond of swim
ming also, and it is a very health
full exercise. All girls ought to
get out in the open more. They
will have better health and more
wholesome thoughts. L don't
think you should wear your
dresses too long, they are not so
stylish this year.
Here comes "a boy of eighteen
years to get advice from you. L am
in love with two ladies. one sixty,
the other thirty. I have been going
with the sixty-year-old one about
a year. She says she loves me
dearly and I know I love her with
my whole heart She asked me to
kiss her the other day. Would it
be all right? 1 don't love the thirty
year-old one quite as we'll as 1 do
the sixty-year-old one. Which one
would you advise me to marry?
LONELY BLUE-EYED LEONARD.
Now, Leonard, think you are
trying to have some fun with
me. But If you are really in
earnest, I think you have lost
your mind. Of course If you
were asked by the lady sixty
years old for a kiss you should
have played the part of son
and given her the kiss. I sup
pose she looks upon you as
such.
You must be- some killer"
If all the old ladies are in love
with you. Seriously speaking I
think your pate is added. But
if you are thinking of matri-
mony, my advice to you will be
to take the sixty-year-old, she
will have sense enough to train
you in the way you should go.
I am a girl fifteen years of age
Have brown hair, blue eyes and fail
complexion. Do you think I am toe
young to have boy friends and how
often should they come, and how
long should they setay? I stay with
my sister and go to school. There is
boy seventeen years of age II
school. Every one says he is a nice
boy. We are very fond of each 9th
er, but my sister does not want me
to go with the boys. Do you think
she is right? Please advise me.
ROSE.
I think you should have a few
boy friends at your age. Most
girls do and if girl has the in
clination, it is far better to let
the boys come to the house than
to say girl shall not, and have
her meet them on the sly some
where; that usually happens If
ones parents or family objects.
When a boy calls to see girl,
it is proper for him to leave
after a couple Of hours. If you
are goingsto school it is not right
to stay up too long in the eve
ming And besides late hours
make one age quickly, if they in
dulge too frequently.
Dear Aunt Mary: I am asking
you for advice. I am a girl age IA
blue eyes, black hair, medium com
plexion, height S feet, inches
weight 108. Do you think I weigh
enough for my height? have some
boy friends. Do you think that is
nice for a girl age IA? Miss Mary
can you give me any information
as to where I can get the song, "My
Little Girl" and the song, "Till We
Meet Again." the new way.

Journal. Just send those songs by
mail. My address is, Mabel David
son, Pineview, Ga, r. 1, box 70.
P. s.. + will send the money fo1
the songs when you send them
Write me how much they cost.
L have very little time to
devote to running around in
search of trivial things, but I
don't mind doing a kindness oc-
casionally to some nice little
girl like you seem to be, judg-
ing from your letter. So I will
see If I can get the songs for
you. But you must have little
patience and wait q few days
for them. I will let you know
