Loves Another


Miss Martha Lee: l am deeply IN love
with a young man Of 10. but he loves an
other girl, who does not love him. Tell me
what / can do to take her place. / am .
and drive my own car. I treat him nice and
always like TO be his chauffer but he never
shows me any affection for my services Ny
rival is far more beautiful than I am, but do
you think my nice disposition can make UP
for my absolute lack OF beauty
HEART BROKEN
Perhaps you are too good TO this
boy You can see he is the sort who
likes best the girl who is hard to get
as most men do. Both Of you are
young. Don't let him see that you
care for him, except in a friendly
way.
In this day and age. there IS no
reason any girl should have an "ab-
solute lack Of beauty" Good clothes,
worn WELL count almost as much as
pretty face. And faces may be
helped a great deal. Study yourself
closely, fix your hair and dress to
bring out your good points. You
probably are better looking than you
imagine, anyway.

Letter From Beatrice Grimshaw to
Sally AthertOn--A Contrast in
Marriages


Dear Sally wish had the pen oil
novelist. would write the story ir
which I might contrast the weddings
of my two dearest friends. There
would have to be a second volume, you
know, after you had both had some
years of welded life. l expect you
will both come to the same thing at
last, a beautiful old age with grand
| children around your knees.
Your wedding, dear Sally, was SO
quietly unconventional, without even
a new gown for the occasion. You
slipped away at the noon hour and
married Sam. And yet, there was
something very solemn, very sacred
about that simple ceremony up there
in the mayors Office. With just my
self and the mayors secretary for
witnesses.
Continual Sacrament"
Do you know, I came to the con-
clusion that, after all, the ceremony
of marriage is not necessarily a re-
| ligious rite. If one only complies with
| the civil laws Of. ones country and
truly keeps ones faith in love and
the one loved, that is a continual re-
/ ligious sacrament.
I had been wondering If this were
true, and seeing YOU and Sam drop
into your new life so quietly and
calmly. yet withal so happily, I almost
came to the conclusion that. after all,
yours was the right way.
Then 7 came back here to all the
great pageant of Leslies wedding. Six
bridesmaids, my dear. with your
tumble servant the maid Of honor. Our
Fgowns and hats, which were furnished
by Mr., Hamilton. cost 5000 for each
girl. The brides gift to each one of
us Is a solid gold vanity case and we
are having now a round Of festivities
that could only be equaled in court
circles when the bride was OF royal
blood It's all very grand and Les
lies hushand-to-bc seems one Of the
incest chaps I ever have known. Les
lie IS perfectly oblivious Of everything.
now that he has arrived. but before
he came she had no time to think Of
the responsibilities she was going to

gerie shops
Never Had Chance"
OF course you understand that Mrs
Hamilton is in her element. She
never has had "A chance before Of i'm
pressing the Hamilton millions upon
the society people OF Sharon.
Leslies wedding Will be something
TO remember, but, after all, dear, I
expect when you read that sentence
you win say-"and my wedding was
something TO remember" Each to his
taste and kind.
I told mother about YOU the other
night. and this was her comment: Il

his hand under a woman's elbow

2. In alighting the man gets out

3. A man never holds a parasol
over a woman's head when she is
stepping out Of or into a carriage
or car; he does. hold an umbrella
over her in bad weather.
T. A woman always sits in the
seat on the right.
8. A man, unless very well ac-

her when they are riding in a taxi

prevalency of kidney disease. While
kidney disorders are among the

Weak kidneys may cause lumbago,
