nEAR MISS FAIRFAX:
~ Please help me. This Is

a youth nineteen years old and
have been going with a girl for
the last three years. We loved
each other dearly. We were su.
premely happy until her cousin
entered my life. They live to-
gether and ! cannot make up my
mind which one 1 like better.
When see one I am sure it is
she, but when I see the other, I
am positive it is she also.
I am so worried I come to
you for advice. T. M.
VOU are not in love with either
4 young woman, since you can.
not choose between the two.
Keep both for good friends, but
don't make love to either girl
until you are positive that you
are in love with her-if that
time ever comes.
If you made the mistake of be.
coming engaged to the girl whose
friendship you have had for three
years, by all means break the
engagement, since you are not
sure you love her. This may
seem unkind, but it will save un-
happiness later on.
Be careful hereafter not to de.
vote all your time and attention
to a young woman whom you like
but with whom you are not in
love. Be friendly with her, but
also with other young women
whom you know and like.
