I am a young girl 13 years old
coming to you for a bit Of advice.
have been going with the boys for
about six months as friends. Do you
think I am too young to go with
them? There is a boy near my home,
aged II, who comes to see me some
times. He is jealous and don't want
me to go with other boys. How can
I break him from being jealous?
This boy has been angry with me
several times. He got angry again
about week ago because another boy
came home wit me from church.
The boy II was there. [ told him I
had company. He got so angry he
could hardly stand it. He asked for
his picture back from me in front of
two boys. Was this right? I like
this boy Of II and he says he loves
me. How can you tell if boy loves
you or not? How is my hand writ
ing? What does it mean when
boy winks at girl? Should a boy
hold your arm or is it nicer to hold
hands? Should girl or boy speak
first on the street? When a boy
comes to our home should L go to the
door and greet him first? Is it nice to
go alone with boy to church after
dark? Is it right to speak to a boy
first in church? If a boy says he
loves you what should I say? If a
boy asks IT you are going to church
Sunday night and you say yes and
he asks if he can come and go with
you and I don't want him, how should
1 tell him? I don't care for his COM
pany without hurting his feelings.
What is mother of pearl? How do
girls my age wear their hair? AS |
hate those horrid puffs on the ears.

1t proper for me to write friendly
letters to boys? At what age do
girls start going with bows? p. Il
Pearl, one of the gems found
in certain sea and fresh water
shells. Shells are generally lined
by the animals inhabltaing them
with material which gives them
a smooth surface. 1t is laid in
thin, partly transparent plates,
colors. This lining is called
mother-of-pearl or nacre. On
opening the shells there are some
times found rounded portions Of
this nacre, which has been form
ed by throwing layers Of this lin
ing material around a grain of
sand or a minute vegetable or
animal growth. These are pearls
used in trade and worn as orna-
ments. They are exceedingly val
liable, cost more according to
size.
Do not give up other boy
friends on account of the Jealous
disposition of this one boy. You
are too young to devote your en-
tire time to one boy. He acted
very rudely asking fir his picture

is true sign of an empty pate
if INDUCED in too freely. Pay
no attention to it, it means
nothing, The lady speaks first
on the street, or in church. There
is only polite reply to declara-
| tons of love. If you do not care
to go with any one, it is the
best not to accept any invitations
from them at all. Never go with.
any one you are ashemed of. Try
to have an engagement each time
the boy asks you for one. He
will soon see you do not CO re for

Holding hands is not harmful,
but does seem rather silly to
other people-not inflicted with
love. 1t is unnecessary tc have
boy hold your arm. You should
be physically able to walk erect
without having him prop you up.
Your handwriting is fairly good.

homo it may be proper but if it is

should be chaperoned. There is
