Advice To The
 LOvelOrn
By Beatrice Fairfax.
A Test of True Love


 Dear Miss Fairfax: I am twenty and for a year have been going about with a man ten years my senior Whereas he has sterling qualities, there are many things that greatly annoy me.
 Sentimentality I thought I never possessed has come to light since knowing this man. And all the co1u- pliments I have had from other ad- mirers, also love from them, which I thought nonsensical, are the very things I crave from him He is un- sentimental and when I sometimes say things really mean, he tells me I am foolish I know it isn't wise to tell a man you love him I don't have to say it, my whole being shows it, and how I do love him, yet I doubt my happiness with him am so miserable of late. longing for the lit tie things that mean so much to me Is sentimentality foolish? Can a man really love a woman and not be sen timental? Am I expecting too much from the man I love? Can a girl be happy with a, man who lacks sen timent, when she is fond of it
 There is a great difference between true sentiment and sentimentality. The latter is likely to indulge in flat tery and all sorts of speech-making. But real sentiment may be inarticu late. If the mans actions show deep feeling, can't you conceive that his emotions may lie too deep for words? Suppose you read Shakespeare's King Lear'' and see how the daugh- ters who protested their devotion for their old father the king. failed him when he needed them-while Cor della, the daughter who could not make fine speeches. proved her love by loyalty and devotion. If you and this man love each other, why can't you try to meet each other half way. Real love gives If you give him the dignity and sanity he admires, he ought, in turn, to give you some of the sweetness and tenderness woman craVes.

 T think you'd better. I can't say more. I wouldn't be saying this much because of any personal axe to grind It's to your interest to come, I assure you.''
 Something in her tone carried con- viction. Besides. I was ready 10 grasp at any straw today.
 'I can't afford to be late at my of1ce.' I replied hesitatingly.
 T understand. I'd offer to come to you, but I'm in charge here-due to the absence of my-emp1oyer-so for your own sake you must come here. You know Toms gone, I SUD- pose?" she jerked out suddenly.
 "I don't know why you should suppose so." I gave back lightly, playing the game as best I could. 'But we'll talk over theories and suppositions and things in your of fee at about 9:15- Right?
 'Tn be there," returned Daisy. "Goodby till then.''
 made my good-by brief and my breakfast the same. Carlotta was in a teasing mood and inclined to go in to the matter of Carrs sudden de- parture with what seemed an aston ishing lack of delicacy after the very good taste with which she's accepted my statement the night before I was too taut of nerves to trust myself to answer her without betraying any thing, so I made all the more haste, covering my monosy1lables with ex- cuses about how I must eat and run
 I hurried down the steps, pulling on my gloves as I went. And as I went through the familiar motions my mind jerking about from a con- sideration of why Daisy had demand ed my presence to my own demand for the elusive root of all evil, my eyes suddenly focused on my right hand. There was the pearl ring which I automatically slip on when remind me of the 1ong-ago day when Jim gave me the jewel and Daisy let her passion for va1uab1es run away with her-and it.
 The pearl ring! It represented a large sum of money. It was the only thing I had on which money could be realized. It was also all that remain ed to me of the beautiful gifts I'd once received from Jim. It was his first gift.
 As those thoughts darted through my mind, I realized what I had to do. I fought against it for a mo- nent, even though I recognized that better people than I have been driven to the precise course I was heading for
 The first thing on the days pro- gramme was to see Daisy and ad- just whatever 1t was that made her demand my presence. Then I must set about getting the funds with which to pay the Star.
 I have only one way of getting that money. No matter how it hurts me, I must take 1t. I must pawn my pearl ring.

TRUDA's "PRosPECTs."

How perfectly lovely for you." was Ilona's enthusiastic reply when she heard of her sisters invitation, instinctive1y delighted that the news was not what she and Grace had ex- pected it to be, for the latter's sake of course. That Jimmie would event ually propose to Truda was more or less of a certainty but it would be far easier for Grace to hear of the en- gagement in some other way than face to face.
 "I am so glad dear" 1breathed Mrs. Cameron happily. ''That does seem as if Mrs. Warburton was thinking of you seriously after all, doesn't it? Se's not asked any of the girls of your set up for long time, has she ?"
 'It does look that way, mother" answered Truda with a self-satisf1ed smile After all there's no use in Mrs. Warburton's rghting off the in evitable, is there? Her precious Jim it might as we'll be me, if he wants me!'
 "Yes, dear" said Mrs. Cameron, though of course I can understand her mothers feelings about wanting to hold her boys as long as she can and all that. I reckon I'll feel the same way about Gay when he gets to the counting age. I'll just naturally hate to have him fall in love with any woman but his mosher for ages and ages. Thank goodness there are years before I need to worry about that, though"
 Pooh, if you feel that way and hold him back mother. the people will think he'd tied to your apron strings. Every boy should be allowed his lib- erty after twenry-one." snapped Tr1d5

d-IMPORTANCE OF PROTEIN
 PART II.

Hd-IMPORTANCE OF PROTEIN
 PART II.
 The following is taken from Rose Feeding the Family:
 Protein is a term standing for a large number of related substances, all made by the chemical union of simpler substances containing nitro- gen, called amino acids. There are T of these entering into the structure or common proteins, and, as has been aptly suggested, these are used like the letters of the alphabet to build up different kinds of protein.
 "It is estimated that these IT units may be joined together to make $50 million times a million different com binations, using only a single .repre- sentative of each. Hence we nave table proteins, all built from the same building stones,' or the same letters of the protein alphabet con- taining therefore all the essentials for constructing different kinds of body protein, as circumstances may require. Such proteins are called 'complete.'
 There are certain proteins, sucn as gelatin and some kinds found in vege- table foods, in which important amino acids are lacking. If these "incom- plete' proteins were used .as the sole kind of protein the diet of children they could not grow, because some of the constituents for building body pro- tein would be lacking. It would oe like taking the word legume apart and trying to make the word muscle. We should have a superfluous g and e, but no nor c, and be forced to break up another word, such as casefn, to get the extra letters.
 Fortunately, most protein foods contain a goodly assortment of amino acids, and on an ordinary mixed diet In which milk, eggs, meat, fish and various vegetables rich in protein are used, an adult need have little con- cern as to the particular kind of pro- tein which he is taking. If he con- fines himself to vegetable food in which incomplete proteins are more frequent, there is more danger of lack of sufficient amounts of some amino acid, and the combination with such a diet of some milk, cheese, or other food known to be rich in 'comp1ete' proteins is wise.
 ''In the diet of growing children this is g matter of more importance and emphasis must he laid on the best proteins for growth
 Milk has been proved to contain the most perfect protein for growing chill dren, and adults also Every child should have at least pint a day

IMAGING YOURSELF WE'LL

IMAGING YOURSELF WE'LL
 We have had several chats together so far on the power of auto-suggestion particularly on the methods of Coue, who has made such a sensation in Europe, I told you of Coue last week simply because there has been so much talk of him recently and be- cause he has been so extraordinarily successful in curing people who were hopeless invalids or hopeless cripp1es, or sadly afflicted in some other fash ion. Many of our own doctors have been doing for years what Emile Coue advocates, and I believe that every man or woman can follow this method successfully without the aid of a doc tor.
 The thing to know first is that the imagination is stronger than the will You can believe this readily enough when you think of the number of poo- pie you yourself know who ina zine themselves afflicted with various ail- ments, and who have those ailments even though we all know that they do not wish to be sick. It is a case of imagination being stronger than will
 Why not imagine yourself to be well? Gone says you can do it. and proves it by the marvellous cures he makes every day.
 You must not will yourself to be well, and you cannot Immediately inn agine yourself to be we'll What you must do is to let the thought sink deeper and deeper into your mind every day that you are gradually get ting better and better.

To Estimate Weight of Block of I

To Estimate Weight of Block of Ice A close estimate of the weight of a block of ice can be made by multi plying together length, width and thickness of the block in inches, and dividing by thirty. This gives very closely the weight in pounds.
 Example: A block 10x10x inches multiplied as above gives 300; divided by 30, gives 30 pounds as approxi- mate weight. A block 10x1Ox6 would estimate 20 pounds.
 To Bleach Muslin For Fifteen yards of muslin dissolve one-ha1t pound of chloride of lime in quart of rain water (if attainable). Soak the musline over night in warm rain water. Wiring out the cloth and put ins another half tub of warm rain water in which the solution of lime has been poured. Leave it in this for about twenty minutes, but lift up the cloth for an airing every few minutes. Rinse in clear rain water. This will not injure the cloth.

ent. Regret for the continued alb
sence of Mrs. Robert L. Holiday was
expressed. as this Is the first time

she has been absent during the
preparation OF the budget for the
coming year.
Miss Frances a. Griggs. secretary.
presented ten applications for new

Problems relating 10 twenty-siz
cases were discussed and acted upon

marriage. after which Miss Grlggs
brought up the budget for discus
sion. She showed that with the en-
larged scope OF the work and the
