Dear Miss Lee I am a middle-aged man.
and for the first time in my life, / have
read, within the last week. a department
such as yours. and this matter of the CON
troll of the affections is of interest to me.
Perhaps love can be controlled in few
cases. but know positively II cannot in
all. I have wife and several children.
but never knew what love was until had
been married ten years or more. For sew
eral years. realizing that ! loved another
have struggled hard to love the woman

/ really love. Although I am not seeing
this other girl, Ii is impossible for me to
forget her. and while. for the sake of my
family. am doing my best to stick TO my
manner whereby may give a message to
coming generations. I should do 1t. and this
10 my messages
That they do not marry until they
are sure they have met the person
whom they love irresistibly and whom
they cannot live without and that
they do not be sure that this is the
person until they have experienced
that feeling for a year or two.
No greater tragedy can happen to human
being than that OF loving one person and
may be some instances under which one can
cultivate love- yet there certainly are many
odds against It, and the chances are that
they will never succeed in cultivating love
that viii make them happy.
II your department can accomplish the

benefit TO mankind Speak the message

Ii" TREATMENT Of the scalp for
dandruff and preventing the
~ loss Of hair is a most impor-
tant part of your health program.
1t is Just as foolish to rub a bald
head with hair tonic and expect hair
to grow, as it would be TO rub the
tonic on an egg and expect it to
sorout feathers. The time to prevent
dandruff and badness is when you
have hair and not when you haven't.
If you have tendency to thin skin
on your scalp, you will have your
troubles keeping badness away. Thin
skin, rather tight over the head, does
not permit Of a free circulation to
nourish the scalp and the hair roots.
II your scalp is thick and moves
rather freely over the skull bones,
your hair will probably stick by you
to the last.
Now for the treatment; The two
chief aids are cleanliness and scalp
massage. A third may be added for
good results. brushing the hair. Any
good toilet soap or green soap with a
little alcohol added will prove effective
as a shampoo.
II you insist on a preparation try
this one: In one-half pint use so
parts soft soap, two parts oil of law
ender, and s3 parts alcohol.
Massage must be started in early
youth and kept up through your
whole life. 1t is by far the greatest
agent to preserve the hair. Use the
finger tips to massage the scalp, night
and morning.
Brushing should be carried out in
careful and systematic manner. It
should be done at night and in the
morning. Some other during the day
will also prove beneficial. Brush un-
I'll you feel your scalp warm under
the brush movements. It helps to re-
move the dandruff and stimulates the
scalp and hair roots.
Shaving the head or frequent cut
ting does not help the growth of the
hair.

Warning Against Lnfatuation

Dear Miss Lee: / have been reading the
arguments for and against cultivated love.
AS no one has voiced my argument against
such love, feel that my opinion might
have some weight.
Ny wife and I were both young at the
time of our marriage. thought 4 loved
r and I think she felt that her love was
genuine. We have had short periods OF
happiness. but the greater part of our six
years of matrimony has been unhappy. OF
course, each processes true love for the
other now. but blind man could see that
there Is no genuine love in her affection for
me. i am frank to confess that my deeper
affection is for another. I-have tried hard
to cultivate love out of what I believe was
only temporary infatuation. but have had
no success. I would like to say to young
people:
Don't mistake infatuation for love.
Don't think you can not live with
out any certain person.
Look before you leap.
Above all, don't try to cultivate
love; wait for Cupid's dart.

Letter From Mrs. Mary Alden
Prescott to Priscilla Brad
ford

MY DEAR PRISCILLA:
You can not tell how lonely have
been since you left me for New York
It is not good for an old woman like
me to live alone and am delighted
to know that when you return you
are going to bring whatever part Of
your goods and chattels you may de-
sire and come over to my house or
rather your house-and live with me-
until the book is closed. Today
made my will, my dear, and left you
all my small possessions.
1t is a sad thing, dear Priscilla, to
realize after you have borne a child
and brought him up as nearly Cod
fearing as you could. that he would
cast off his mother in her old age.
Although it grieves me to the heart
to know this. my grief is not nearly
as great as my fear-fear for him
for we know that just so surely as q
child casts of his father or mother,
just so surely will he be cast off by
his child This. of course. Is more
sure in the case Of John, because he
has taken into his heart and home
a nameless child who will surely dis
appoint, IL not dishonor, him.
1 am quite sure you are mistaken.
dear Priscilla, about seeing Leslie on
the street in New York. have learned
in roundabout way that her father
is very Ill and if she had left her
home for any place it would be to go
to him. would write to her or to
John and say that you thought you
had seen her, but I solemnly vowed
to myself that I would never again
write to my son until he has written
to me and In some way apologize, IL
not ask my forgiveness for the letters
he has sent me.
do not want to shorten YOUR stay
at all in New York City, but 1 shall
be very lonely until you return to
Your devoted friend,
MARY ALDEN JRECOTT.
