NARY MEPEDITH'S ADVICE
TO LONELY GlR S AT HOME

am coming to you for some adj
vice, as 1 have read a great deal of
the advice tina. you have given to
other girls.
I am young girl Of nineteen. Do
you think that / am too young to
marry a man of thirty-five if we
love one another as we should? Do
you think the difference in our ages
would affect our happiness? I have
been with many young men and en-
jOyed their company very much,
though I've never cared for any
one as I do this person. He lives
near my home, and has proven to
be a gentleman in all respects. My
family admire him-other people,
too, like him. Thanks for your adj
vice. Yours truly,
NJ J.
Sixteen years is quite a differ
ence in your ages. But the man is
still under forty and he may be of
a disposition to remain young in
thought, spirit and looks for many
years to come. He may be very
congenial with you. The saying to
NC Oil OIu LIldu IS very
true, and personally it is safer to
choose man older, because women
break early. AS long as you are
youthful and fresh-lool1ing, you can
count on a faithful spouse.
am coming to you for advice. I
am nineteen years Of age, weigh
100 pounds, have light complexion,
dark hair and am in love with a boy
eighteen, and he wants me to marry
him. He has been going with me
over three years, and when 1 am
around him he acts like he is crazy
about me.
Which color is suitable to marry
in?
How late should a boy stay when
he comes to see me at night?
L am thanking you for your best
advice. BLUE EYES
1t is better for the man to be
older than the woman when the
question of marriage and lifetime
partnership is decided upon. There
is so little difference in your age
and the age Of your future hus-
oand it isn't worth considering
know several couples about the same
age who seem to be very happy, and
l am inclined to think it is a mat
ter of love, faith, bear and fore
pear. You are the best judge of
your sweetheart's capacity for max
ing you happy. Do your part and
he will do his-if he has any de-
pendable traits of character.
The color which suits your style
of beauty. Brown, tan, Harding
blue, midnight blue, grey and white
are the popular colors for travelling
suits, or informal weddings.
He should leave before II o'clock.
Usually 1880 to II o'clock is late
enough for a man to stay.
I want to buy knitting machine,
and | know a lot OF people who
would buy socks from me. If I
get one and sell the socks don't YOU
think l would sell enough to get
my money back and then what I
made over would be niue? Do YOU
think the knitter would ever wear
out If taken good care of? Please
tell me what you think best. Thanks
for all advice

Yes, If you are a hustler, wide
awake and determined to make it a
success. But in the beginning you
I'm IdVeiInany hlndrances, you will
be discouraged, you will feel the
effort is too large, you will feel as
if you are being defeated. From my
varied experiences, I say, if you
start it, stick to it-every day, every
mountaineering all the time. And
L will be willing to bet it will pay
you in the end. -
