tages. am engaged to young IN man. but but

years been on too friendly terms with
= He has not denied that this. was true;
but saids that he once thought he loved
her, but that she is out Of his MS, life and and
her again. However. he will not condemn
her when I do, says she was, sweet and
would do anything in the world for him;
4 This. has worried me. He wants to be
married soon and have a home but shall
l trust him or give him up? E. W.
If 1 understand you, the fact that
he will not condemn this woman is
your principle worry, yet he would
be cad if he would talk about her,
wouldn't he?
The fact that he has not lied to
you and has been perfectly frank
speaks we'll for him. think he Is
a good risk, but if you do marry
him, forget this past absolutely and
don't eternally refer to it.

A man is worse than foolish who
let's an exaggerated sense of chivalry
put him in the role of everlasting
victim to a grating wife. Fair play
is fair play and it's quite right to
lay hold of it even in matrimony.
Unhappily there are many women
who regard marriage as a soft snap.
"I am tired Of working. l want
to get married" one often hears
business girls say. They make the
type of wife who buys clothes she
can't afford, stocks the house with
new furniture bought on the Install
ment plan and by her extravaganza
keeps her husband chained like a
galley slave.
Fortunately, this is only one type
Of wife.

A Man Advises

/ Miss Martha Lee: I have been reading
with interest, in your columns in The In
dianapols Times, of the girls who are
about to be married and are so un-
decided as to whether they should tell
their husbands to be, all about their past
life.
In regard to this matter, you will please
permit me, a man, to set forth my opinion
on this womans question.
My opinion is that a man does not have
any more right to ask woman for full
information and detail concerning her past
life and good times. Nthan woman has to
ask and receive the same information
from a man.
Very few men are big enough to hear. a
on a matter of this kind. and being small
and unable to get il out of Their. systems
best interest of all concerned. including
themselves. to leave this question alone.
This will also apply to the women;

to seven minutes. And is effective
twelve hours or longer.
Midol is NOT a narcotic. 1t has
no effect whatever on heart or ner'

they should, but the pain is banished'
