: Dear Mrs. Thompson: Over two Hears ago I met a fellow of nineteen { and we went together for eight m onths. We began to think 8 lot of each other and finally we became en- gagged. I then said that I would go Ito stay with my sister and see if we really cared for each other. I had not been there more than two weeks before he came after me. While he Twas there the engagement was broken and he came back home. ,n two weeks I returned and he met me at the train. We were to- Eeiher a short time when we quit and he have only been together few times since. I went with other fellows all along, but he would never go with another girl
 Finally I met a fellow and we went Together a short time and were mar ried. We lived together short time. Then met a friend and spoke to fe told me if I would drop my head and not even look at him and not speak it would be all right. Of course this was ridiculous. But he insisted on my answer
 At this time my husband was get tins money and I knew he hadn't worked for it and I told him if he SwOuld tell me where he got his m Oney l would gladly make my answer. He refused and so did I. Then he went home and I sent his clothes after him. He called up asking for forgiveness. but I was glad he had gone. Then got my divorce.
 Now and then the first boy and I see each other. He would like to go with me except that l have been married We have made dates and he has said that perhaps he would be there but he never Is. I am still crazy about him.
 ann thinking about going to my rrandmother's Should I write to him. or would you just wait and see what he does?
 My husband wants ne to remarry him. Do you think I should?
 If the first one asks for dates should I go with him again?
 Or should I forget both and try to get some. other friend?
 RUBY.
 Do not write to the first young man. If he still cares for you he will get syour address from some oneNand will write to you. If he wants your com many again. go with him since you Hstfn care for him.
 Do not consider remarrying your former husband. A man so jealous and secretive would not make you

Real Doctors. QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS.

am living a mod derate temperate life but there are frequent occasions when I have spells that put me out Of the count. Commence with a head ache, a hot nervous headache, that makes a fellow want to lie quiet and sleep. This first insta1lment is fol- lowed by pains under the belt buckle region of my stomach. It's an awful feeling while it lasts. Frequently have fainted through .one of these at tacks and it would seem that I have no reserve vitality to combat and 1t is a deplorab1e 1ndition for man of 30 years of age who endeavors by clean living to keep fit. I realize that without an examination it is very hard for you to diagnose my condition thoroughly. Do you know of an eX- pert in my town-a real doctor that could visit and know he's top notcher? There are some fine men If we only could go to them; but there are also many sewer diggers.
 Answer-Am sorry I do not know a good doctor in your city although there are, of course, many. You should be examined by one who does not make sewer digging" an avoca- tion I am mailing some relative in formation.

"Go to Mexico, young woman, go 70 Mexico" are the words of Gather
 lne Elizabeth Butterfield.

 Suggestions.
 If when you make your aprons for the kitchen, nursery, or sewing room, VOL choose a pattern which makes the skirt of the apron the same width at the top and bottom Cat the belt and hemp, you will have two aprons from the same material The upper part wears thin much sooner than the lower part When this occurs, rip the hem out and reverse the apron, putting the hemmed part into the belt and hemming the part that was in the belt. Think of this when you cut your next aprons.
 Did you get a lot of pretty colored hanukerchiefs for Christmas? One girl thinking such gifts too pretty for ordinary use, is wearing @ few of them as vests, with her suit and sweaters. Maybe you have dainty col lars that match the colors of the "hankys" Try the combination.

 In announcing the conditions of the award Professor Maltby said ''The steady rise in educational stan dards for women is reflected in the requirements for fellowship holders. When the fe11owships were first awarded in 1891, just nine years after the formation of the association, the qualifications were decidedly lower. It is now necessary that the students applying for practically all of the fel1owships be holders of the Ph. D. degree"
