Dear Miss Brooks:
have a number of questions to
ask you, which have been puzzling
me great deal lately. They are:
(1) How may rid my hand Of seed
warts7 (2) Could you give me the
address Of company that buys hair?
(3) Would you kindly give me a num-
Der of candy recipes?
Thanking you for your trouble, / re-
main,
TUT, Cedar City, Utah.
A new and simple remedy for re-
moving warts has just come to my at
tention. II is as follows: Add a
tablespoon of borax to one quart of
water, dissolving thoroughly. Sstur-
ate the warts with this several times
daily and let dry on. If you will per-
sist in this treatment, feel sure you
will be delighted with results, which
sN5uld bcgin to be noticeable in
week or so. II you will send me your
name and address, together with
stamped envelope, I will send you the
name of a firm here where you
might be able to dispose of your
hair, though there seems to be very
little market for il. You do not state
anything about what kind of candy
recipes you wish, and as space is linn
tied am able to give you only a
couple, but hope you may 6ke these.

Dear Miss Brooks:
Please answer these few question
for me. If there Is boy that yo,
like real well and he seems to pay
little more attention to another Cir
than to you, what is the best thin
to do?
If you are engaged to one felloy
and you meet another one you like
little better, would you break you
engagement or keep it and not be sat
isfied with the one you have?
II boy asks you if you like him
Is 1t best to let him know that you dc
or not to let him know?
Thanks for the other good infor
nation / have had from your corner
AN INQUIRER OF UTAH
II your boy friend continues to pa
more attention to another girl than h
does to you, the natural conclusion i
that he cares more for her sOciet
than he does for yours, and the onl
thing to do il to let him go his wa
and you go yours.
II would be very foolish to continu
your engagement to one man il 20
really cared more for some one els.
but be sure of yourself first.
1t is by far the best plan not to lie
your boy friends think you care
great deal for them. Why not be Jus
good pals and not think too muc
about "like" and "lOve" for Will
yet? You will enjoy your friends
great deal more II you do so.

time.

Suva? If so, can you give me som
information concerning it?

What is its meaning?
