MARY MEREDITH'S ADVICE
TO LONELY GIRLS AT HOME

am coming TO you Tor a uCLle OIL
of help. Will you please send this
to the lady that was inquiring about
the auto knitter, as I have one I
will sell. I have just had it about
two months, and it is just as good
| as new one, for I haven't used
it much. The reason want to sell
it my eyes have got so bad that 1
=, can't work at any thing. The doc
tor says for me not to knit with it,
so that is the reason that I want
to sell it. If she will buy from me
will sell it cheaper than she can
buy from the company.
Miss Meredith, you need not print
this in the paper; just send it to
the lady if you have her address,
and tell her to answer if interested.
[ will not send stamped envelope
now, for I don't know whether it
will reach you or not, as I don't
hardly know how to address your
letter, but will try to return the
favor.
MRS. LAURA ROGERS.
Perhaps there are other ladies'
readers Of this column-interested
IN the auto knitter. I will print
this letter, and perhaps you may be
able to dispose Of the machine at
once. Those interested in the auto

your eyes will flash to all the
WofId' your world, the loneliness of
your soul. If your disposition is a
charitable one, compassion for the
weak and unfortunate, you will
abound in beauty. It will envelope
you like a misty veil. And this
beauty will last as long as you live,

NO harm to pin a rose on a young
mans coat. There is no harm in
chewing gum. 1t doesn't look well,
especially when in a crowd to work
ones jaws perpetually, like a COW
chewing it's cud. For this reason it
IS best to chew gum only when alone.
