A young man can take the
sweet young thing to tho theater
and dance without dragging along
fOur-eyed, fat, Aunt Susan as a
boudy guard, and at first it must
have been q great relief to tho
young swain to save change on
theater tickets and dinner checks.
But sometimes / think that the
young beaus wish the chaperon
would be reinstated, because at
least she used to see that the
young people got home at q rea-
sOnable hour. and what o young
man spent grudfngly upon what
he considered an old crouch at
the time he now squanders twice
as much and loses a great deal Of
sleep before the fair vision he is
interested In, even thinks Of call
ing IL an evening and starting
for home.
No wonder the prospective
mOther-inllaW of fair young dam

wondering when son Is going to
show home, and how ON earth he
is going to be fit for work the
next day, after dancing half the
night and into the morning with
q pepful young miss who can
sleep most of the next day while
he has TO skip to the office and
impress the boss with his tire
less energy.
CONFLICTING HOPES.
A mother I know who has q
young hopeful installed through
her influence In an office where
the prospects of advancement In
every way arc very fine, worries
herself to q state OF Mysteries,
because when he escorts ono Of
the fashionable young ladies he
knows to the theater and supper
afterwards, he don't get home
until three bells, sometimes, and
she is torn between her ambitions
for him matrimoniaIIy and pro-
fessiOnaIIy.
1t looks as If he f. going to
hand the girl, which will be q sue
cess socially, but It sometimes
looks as II he'll lose his job doing
It, and without the job the little
dame is apt to jiIt him.
Another mother / know with
two fine sons Gays she can't UNI
derstand what kind OF mothers
some OF the girls they know must
have. When her SONS go there
to spend tine evening they don't
get homo until after two, and the
girls are perfectly nice, all right
girls; but it SeeqnS to be all right
for them to have their company
stay as late as they want to.
1t used to be the girls parents
who worried when their daugh-
tors were out with young men
who didn't bring them home until
hate, but since girls seem to have
hands and never tire Of dancing
the boys parents who worry.
SHOULD STICK TO JOB.
A young fellow that has sense
enough to break away from

prepare him for his next day Mt
the office Is looked upon as 1
pruda. But it's q wise girl who
sticks to q guy who has enough
interest IN his job to want to be
fresh and ready for it next day.
He's the young bird who Is going
to make good I'm life. and IL she
lands him she won't have any
thing to worry about.
The girl who has a fellow and
thinks enough Of him to look out
for his job. and sends him home
early SO that he can start to work
next morning refreshed and rest
ed is a good girl to stay inter
eSted In.
don't wonder that earnest
mothers of sons worry when their
boys get in with crowd that
stay out all hours.
They may be nice girls, and the
evening may be spent in just fun
and dancing, but just the same a
