You need not take a taxi unless you

Please Tell Me
What to DO
A Good. Sensible Letter
BY CYNTHIA

Dear Cynthia want to write few
lines to Disguised with Boys" Please
do not be discouraged, also dc not do as
your friends tell you. You know deep
in your heart 1t is wrong. When I was
eighteen l had the same experience you
are now having. The boys wanted to
kiss me goodnight when they brought
me from dances My brothers and their
friends advised me net to do so, but my
girl friends only laughed at mo. 1 am
now twenty-one and those boys who
wanted to kiss me are my friends. They
all tell my brothers how much they re-
spect me- Sc, dear little girl, please do
not let the boys kiss you goodnight.
They might call you prig, but wait
until you are older, then you will realize
how much they respect you. Young men
do not respect girls who allow these
privileges. You will not be as popular
as some of your friends, but / would
not let that worry me II were you. I
wish l could talk to you. I am sure l
would convince you l am right. 1t is so
much easier to talk than write.

There was something about her. some
arresting quality that interested him.
Geraldine had told him something OF
Anne's life.
"Why just being here in this house
with some one who is kind TO her is the
most wonderful thing that has ever hap
pened to the girl. She is pathetically
grateful for everything I do and say"
Geraldine had said lightly, proud of
Anne's devotion.
And Edward Carpenter had added,
And she has a splendid mind. She
reads things that most girls would turn
up their noses at, and understands them,
too"
Anne. lost her shyness as soon as she
began to talk to Dane Grey. He asked
her about books, and she told him some
of her thoughts, things that she had
never told any one. When Geraldine
and Mabel Hill sought them out they
were deep in q discussion of a certain
current novel that Anne had picked up
few days before. Anne turned as the
: two women came into the room, ana
, flushed. She felt that she had been
acting very young, that she had let her
enthusiasm run away with her. Some =
thing about the gay badinage in the
eyes Of Mrs. Hill Disconnected her. She
was not skilled enough in the ways OF
the world to know how to meet other
women with perfect self possession. She
had been perfectly natural with Dane
Grey and he had deliberately drawn
her out. but she felt intuitively the
yelled antagonism and somewhat patron
izing attitude OF Mrs. I;!!. Instantly
she became the self conscious little sec
retary whose very clothes were borrowed
from Mrs. Carpenter. She wished sud
denly, passionately, that she had never
come TO this house In hC' revulsion OF
feeling she felc that even Geraldine
thought her foolish and ignorant.

THE heather mixture jersey suit is

many we'll dressed women this year. You
may or may not know that you can buy
very good quality suit of this type
at q price less than that which would
be required to buy a navy blue poiret
twill, serge or tricotine suit of the
same quality. And because this is pos
sible some women I know, rather than
buy a navy blue suit below the stand =
ard of quality they had set, just
thought things over, revised their plans
for their spring wardrobe and ended by
buying one of these eminently service
able garments.
Most women who can afford several
suits each season include one of this
type; and, as I said. some women who
must limit themselves to but one have
wisely selected this type as the one
1t is type of suit that stands up under
constant wear very well-after the enc
of days travelling it looks almost as
clipper as at the beginning: a very
little dcctoring from the tailor will re
store all its pristine condition.
Now remember one thing-and thai
is that If you do select this type of suit
