HEART and HOME PROBLEMS
Written for The State JoSiEnal
BY ELIZABETH THOMPSON

Dear Mrs. Thompson: I was camp
ing about two years ago. While
was there I met a girl who wanted
my friend and me to take her and
another girl for a ride in boat. Later
we took some pictures. When we
she became angry because L would
not put my arms around her. She
soon got over it. The time came
when we both had to go home. Nor
thinking much more other was sur
prised when she wrote me a letter,
which 1 answered. Then she went
away again. She wrote me. but not
knowing her address 1 could not write.
When she came back she asked me
why I did not write. She has gone
away again. Should I write and try
to get her friendship?
THANK YOU.
The girl shows gre I lack of good
breeding She should not have asked
you to take her for boat ride, or
dreamed of having your arms around
her in the picture, or written to you
first If you want TO have that kind
of girl as your friend, write to her,
because that is your affair. I should
think you would prefer to choose a
girl who does not run after you and
who has more refin ement.
Dear Mrs. Thompson: Will you
please tell me how. to reduce my
cheeks and chin? That is the only
part of my body Tat is too fat. !
need the fat on my arms, but every
body tells me how awful my face
looks so fat. 1 hope you will be able
to suggest something. EMILY.
How some people can Nbe SO unkind
Use beyond my understanding Since
your body is thin / am more than in
clined to believe that you are pretty
and some people are jealous of your
plump face.
Is BY the right kind of massage some
OF the flesh could be removed, but
you would have to get advice from
a beauty expert who could show you
just what to do in your particular
case 1t is very dangerous to injura
the muscles of the face, because il
that happens the flesh says. 1 would
not advise massage, however, because
| if you once start you will have to keen
I it up the rest OF your life.
Try to dress in a way that does not
accentuate the plumpness OF your
face. For instance. hats with angles
are more becoming than hats with
smooth round rims. Also be careful
of your diet

OF eighteen. I go with a young mar

YOU PEOPLE.


The inspiration which derive from
the letters OF those who are helped by
these daily Talks, is largely the reason
why they appear each day.
The other day / received a letter
from a great book lover who Is now
S4 years of age-and a delightful let
ter it was. A ranch owner >in the
South asks me to come and see him
when 1 am in his vicinity. A little
girl out West wants to have me come
in sometime to their home and eat
fried chicken and hot biscuits with
them.
Another reader has offered to feed
me up" on maple sugar, Which must
confess is my favorite dish! And from
Pennsylvania 1 have a letter which is
framed and hangs in my office, from
Only a Farmer telling me that he
would like to have me drop in and
have a meal at his farm if l am ever
near him.
Maple sugar, fried chicken, a real

water at such suggestions-and whose
soul wouldn't warm at the thought Of

throng
There are a few whose smiles outshine

A few who start joys tremor in the
breast.
The thousands come and press their way
along,
Brave souls aud good. agIow with miTth

But tho in silk and broadeloth they are
dressed.
The greeting of a time-tried friend is
best,
And he stands out who loves as, right or

The busy people pass US day by day,
Fashioned by God as swallows and the

Scarce noticed are the strangers on the

Then comes a face the eye enraptured
Here is a friend, The great, the rich, the
