ANOTHER SCALP LOST.

DEAR MISS FAIRFAX;
young man, about twenty-siN years oldt old
enough to have sensc), called on me for over
year. We took liking to each other, and had
some good times together. We got along all
right until he began getting serious and wanted
me to stop going with everyone else but him.
Then We fused all the time. He professed
great love for me--absolute. eternal, 'neverN-
thing. But | always told him. from tn" first.
that [ simply liked him. He finally said he
thought he had better stop coming over bee aus"
| just made him miserable. This pleased me
perfectly because never agreed ON any thing.
But in while he would call me up and
ask to please let him come over. and
would try again and disagree. he always say
ing how much ne loved me. This went on u7 10
a week when he asked me to lot him come
over. and usual he said how very much II"
loved me and the funny part about il. although
/ never loved him, | always thought ne was
man with principle.
word from him that lie was married. Now for
the puzzle. DO you think this man just
out and out liar. do YOU think that maybe n"
had a streak Of insanity i" his makeup. 90
you thing n" married just To spite me That t@rt
just What | mean spite me because u" knows
some people say they are? Poor wife. with a hus-
hand who while engaged to be married. tolls
someone else that he loves her y. l..
This man is liar. j. perfectly sane. and did
not marry to spite YOU Hes human being
with lots of sense. Since you do not love him,
or said that YOU did not. he did tho logical thing
and found some one who does love him. Nou'll
have to take. his scalp off your bolt. and your
vanity is q bit hurt. isn't it? Anyway what is
your interest now" You surely didn't expect
him to spend his whole life telling You that he
loved YOU.

The other day in the United States
Senate, Senator Mcclellan, of Ten
nessee, advocated an embargo upon
the sale of American oil to British
purchasers until such IA time as the
government of Great Britain stopped
its policy of debarring Americans
from operating in the oilfelds that
are under British control
Senator Mcclellan vigorously as
serted that Great Britain, while beg

to her during the war, was using the
Honey which she ought to pay us
to obtain the control of the oil re-
sources of the world, and at the
same time was using American oil
and saving her own supplies-a
policy bound in the long run to
make America dependent upon the
British Empire even for the fuel
supply of our navy.
The same day Senator Phelan, of
California, asserted that British oil
companies operating in California
were selling American fuel oil to
Japanese for $l.60 a barrel and
charging Americans $40 a barrel
for the same oil. Senator Phelan
also asserted that he had knowledge
