A REGULAR Fellow.

All rishtthinking folks will applaud the de-
termination Of Prince Carol Of Roumaaia and
his wiEe to live their own hives without inter.
terence fron the throne, Queen Mario having
offered the young wife $50ooooo to quit her
husband and marry another man. The prince.
who has returned homo after . visit to The
United States. has been enraged BY the At
tempt to separate him from the woman he mar
risd because he loved her. She IL not Of the
royal line. and the alliance accordingly cuts
OF the princes rights to the Roumanian throne.
His wife happens to be merely slaughter Of
Roumanian general. There is little son. and
the prince and his wife appear to be happy and
enjoying their lives in their own way. The
prince is said to be Independently wealthy in
his own right He has announced that II the
efforts to break up his homo do not cease he
will take his wife and baby to America and
become a citizen Of this country. The prince
and his wife are good people, and doubtless
they would ind warm friends in the United
States They would find welcome home here
and would b spared the annoyances and en-
bar1assments that will inevitably follow them
they continue to reside in their native land.
1t Is evident the queen is fixed in her purpose
to separate tho couple. and if they placed them
selves under the protection Of the stars and
stripes they would be spared further disturb
anca. They are pair Of good sports. All the
world loves lover. There are two of them
in this case. and they deserve to be happy,

plicit in a way which would help
me to advise you definitely. Your
happiness should not be spoiled by
your mother-in-law WHO probably
Is jeauous OF her sons love for you.
l believe you should talk frankly
with your father-in-law, since there
is a congenial bond between you.
He has lived With the woman for a
long time and is in q position to
know what will be the best course
for you to take.
It may be advisable for you to
insist upon moving to another city
where you and your husband will
have no interference and can de-
pend upon each other. To despise
your mother-in-law and to have to
live near her will poison your mind
and sicken your soul. Love should
be cherished above everything else
and both the husband and wife
should be willing to take any step
to prevent It
Dear MRS. thompson: Why cant
a girl Just be natural and give q
boy q kiss for kiss and let him
know that there is no more won.
derful place this side Of paradise
than his arms? CHIEF.
To be natural is all right if one
is honorable at the same time
Kisses are food for love. II they are
given and taken without sincere
love, however, it is worse thar
stealing food for hunger, because
food for love is a spiritual thinl
while food for hunger is only ma,
terial.
Every lover should bear in mint
that he owes his past to the girl h.
will sometime marry, Just as tn,
girl must remember that she owe,
her past to the man she will some
! time marry.
The person who eats too mucl
food becomes a glutton, while tn,
person who feds upon the food o.
love becomes as an animal ant

Raw Eggs.
l have been taking a raw egg
beaten up with milk and sugar for
breakfast every morning. along
with bread and butter or whatever
else there might be to eat. But now
a woman tells me the raw egg must
be taken apart from all other food
in order to get the greatest
strength from it. Please give your
advice about this. (E. NJ
Answer-It is immaterial when
you take the egg. or whether you
take other food with 1t. There is
so much nutriment in an egg, and
whether you. absorb all the nutri-
ment depends rather on the cook
ing Of the egg. A greater part Is
