LETTER FROM LESLIE PRESCOTT
TO HER HUSBANDS CHUM,
SYDNEY CARTON.
MY DEAR SYDNEY:

NJ I DEAR SYDNEY:
Because you did not get over to
see him while I was away, Jack
says 1 must write to you and insist
that you come to us just as soon as
we have returned from New ork.
Between you ana me, my dear Sgd
ney, am getting rather tired Of in
viting you. You know you are wei
come always, but you have never
| come. I am beginning to feel like
Mariana in the Moated Orange
OF course not just like Mariana
for she was wailing because of the
absence of her lover, and 1 would
not even wall for Jack, who, you
know, is the most devoted of lover
husbands
1t is only to make him happy that
am taking the time during my Joy
Gus New York visit to write you and
l am writing this to disabuse your
mind, for Jack seems tc think you
are still clinging to that old lying
tradition that wives never like their
husbands best friends
! JAIN, WHO Is LOOKING over my
shoulder as I write, seems to think
that Is what ails you and he is very
much hurt because you have not
visited us. I tell him, however, that
you are very observing young man
| and you fought to know by this time
that in the usual triangle it Is the
best friend who runs away with the
modern wife
| A1ice's Sboat sails tomorrow and we
will return home Immediately after
I know you would enjoy being in
town while my mother and father
are there.
For the last time, going-going-
gone. Your friend,
LESLIE.
P. 81 add to this my earnest
hope, old chap, that you will come
over, for | want you to see a very
good imitation--at least--of how to
be happy though married. A.

very broad minded deep-thinking girl. She
Is 10. Until about ten weeks ago we
stayed at home In the country She oftei
told me she loved and / expressed M
thoughts freely, too. but never have asked
her to marry me because I did not feel like
getting married without money.
We both are in town now, but not in the
same town. She has lost her trust In me,
A girl friend told her aunt said she was
not decent any more and that she would
have to quit running around with so many
different fellows. The girl and her aunt
believe this. She has Canned me and
Just know 1 cannot live without her. How
can l go about winning her trust in me
again?
She has been reading dime novels. Do
you think these could make broad-minded
girl lose her trust in her true love?
CHESTER.
Trashy" reading can do a great
deal of harm, especially to impression
able young girls. The novels may be
affecting this situation.
The girl friend who started this
misunderstanding should be forced to
clear it up. Go to her, and demand
that she tell the girl the truth. Be
firm.

Marion Meovr Dre7g Astrologer; Says
No Woman Should We'd Until She Is IS
This is the second of a series OF in
terviews with professional, married
women on the subject of marriage.
By NEA SerpSce

By NBA Servsce
~ EACON, N. Y. June 25.-"No
u woman should marry before
she is 2S," warns Marion
Meyer Drew, astrologer.
Planetary formations prove that
her judgment begins to mature only
at~this period and before this she
is scarcely able sanely to chose a
congenial companion for life"
Mrs. Drew believes that if people
had their horoscopes read, nine out
of ten couples would delay their
marriages, and half of them would
never marry at all.
Marriage" she continues, lis an
unusually interesting study from
the astrological standpoint, because
it can be worked out by applying
general laws to specific cases.
Influence of Zodiac
Unhappy marriages often result
from persons marrying who are
born under the same zodiacal sign.
They get along we'll for time. but
soon bore each other because they
have mistaken a temporary SYM
pathy for real love. Their ultimate
discomfort results from a life Of
monotony.
Not that there is any sign that
has a corner on all the virtues or
the faults, but two persons contem-
plating matrimony can find out if
their respective planetary influences
are likely to counteract each other
successfully
Women born under Virgo, ruling
from Aug. 81 to Sept 81, should
choose mate cautiously. They are
so critical, placing undue emphasis
on small matters
1.-THE Virgo woman is easily an
noyed by cigar ashes spilled on the
carpet. So she should marry a man
who good naturally ignores these
things.
Beware Of These!
Amy man born within a week Of
March first is under a planetary in
1uence which is almost certain to
break up home life either for emo
tional, financial or other reasons.
Some women are born under
signs that indicate the probability of
more than, one marriage. Others,
women Of Taurus or Scorpia, rarely
acquire two husbands These are
the women whose lives are severely
affected If they meet with disap-
pointment in love-
Planetary conditions have quite
as much to do with happy mar
riages as do mothers-in-law, short
bank accounts, ignorance - and
vamps." she concludes.

DAVID FOSTER DAVIDSON,
ELECTION COMM SSIONER

THERE We're many surprises and
upsets in Tuesdays election, but none
more so than in the election of David
f. Davidson, whose many friends made
for him whirlwind campaign that
swept everything before him and car
ried him to victory by handsome ma
jority. Early in the campaign but lit
tie was heard of Mr.. Davidson and it
was only at the near approach of cleo
ton day that he showed the class nee
essary to Outstrip all rivals. He is n
fine young man and well spoken of by
all who know him. AS election COM
missioner he will give a square deal to
all, being perfectly free of bias of any
sort. THE COLORADO STATESMAN
predicts that he will make an ideal
public servant, and congratulate both
him and the people upon his election.

Y. M. c. A. NOTES

Mr.. c. A. Johnson of the real estate
firm of Lyons & Johnson, has just re-
turned from three months trip to
Europe and northern Africa. 1t will
be remembered that Mr.. Johnson was
the one who gave the inspiration to the
first $1,000 towards the fund. He was
greatly pleased to hear of the pro-
gress made in the collection of the sub
scriptions.
Only two months has passed since
the close of the drive, and % per cent
of the subscriptions have already been
paid in full. This is record seldom
equaled in a movement of this kind.
Beginning with this week the long
honor roll lists which the papers have
been carrying from week to week will
be discontinued, and only those who
are paying out from week to week will
appear. This is done because it is un-
fair to ask the papers for so much eX-
ira space. Should anyone who has
paid out fail to find his name on the
honor roll, we shall be very glad to
have the matter reported to us at
once, and the name will appear in the
list the following week.
The Cadet Band is making great i'm
provement under the direction of Mr..
Leo Davis. Fifteen mothers of the
band boys responded to call to meet
last Tuesday evening for the purpose
of forming a Mothers Auxiliary to the
Boys Band. The idea is to give all
the sympathy and cooperation possible
to the directors of the band, and to en-
courage and stimulate the boys in
their practice. The next meeting will
be held on Tuesday evening, May Doth,
at which it is hoped that the mothers
of all the boys will be present.
