IN LOVE WITH TWO

Sometimes just when a girl has fallen in love with one young man, Bang! Along comes another man equally as attractive, and her heart goes pit-a-pat again. What shall she do? Can she be in love with two young men at the same time? If both propose, which one shall she accept?
 Well, we'll well, this is certainly perplexing state of affairs and yet sometimes it will happen. And the big outstanding answer is: Study yourself. Be certain you know your own heart.
 It is an absolute fact that no young woman can be really and truly in love with two young men at the same time. Love is such a big, over towering thing that when young girl is in love Absolutely in loveJ she can only love one man. This may sound a bit suited but it's a fact nevertheless. She may admire two young men all at the same time, but she can only love one deep down in her heart.
 The moment a girl writes to me and tells me she. is in love with two young men at the same time and doesn't know which one she loves better l know that love, real honest togo odness love, that sets the heart a-flutter and makes one want to love Adam, has not touched her. The fact of it is she likes both young men very much but she only imagines she loves them. The vital flame" the love for one man and one man only, has not touched her!
 What shall she do? Shall she marry blond haired Billy or dark eyed Jack? If she can't make up her mind which one she likes better, if she thinks she would be wonder fully happy with Billy on Monday and wakes up Tuesday morning thinking she would rather be Jacks wife there is only one thing for her

"MEAN BANKERso HEST

A banker should be known as the meanest man in town, not as the best fellow.
 If I visit a strange town and have need of the services of a safe and capable banker, l shall avoid the bank presided over by what is known as "A Live Wire.", I shall look up the one who is known as an old fogy, or the meanest man in town. Bank CTS so known are always safe. and intelligent; If you have money on de. posit with them, you will get it back on demand.
 The town of Shelby (Montana) is without banks, all having failed be- cause of live wire management The live wire citizens of Shelby decided on an enterprise that was foolish. Un- fortunately the town had no mean to do. Marry neither Her real hero her choloclate soldier-has not en- tered her life.
 For when the real man comes along. when the boy who makes you think of him 60 seconds every min ute and 60 minutes every hour ap- pears you won't have to wonder, girls, whether you love someone else better.
 You'll know!
 Real love is not a 50-50 proposi- tion. It's 100 per cent or nothing.
 Therefore, Flora May and Isabel Anne, don't fret over which one do like better" any more. If you don't just simply adore him and know he's the right man for you don't try to imagine that life has given you two wonderful men to love at the same time. Cupid plays real game of l. strong trump. Don't let the Jacks and the Jokers get mixed up in your love game. Be sure you get the King of Hearts or nothing
