ADVICE TO
LOVELORN
BY Beatrice Fairfax
.EAR MISS FAIRFAX:

NEAR MISS FAIRFAX:
am madly in love with a
young man. who is % years Of age.
But we seem to quarrel all the
time.
He tells me he loves me with all
his heart, and believe every word
he says. He gave me a diamond
ring and a watch.
We quarrel over his mother.
His mother associates with a mar
ried man who lives with his wife
and two children.
I tell him that if his mother
thought anything Of him she
wouldn't do anything of the sort.
That is the way. the quarrel starts.
He supports his mother. am
getting to the point where don {
know what to do. Will you please
advise me regarding this matter?
MISS PERPLEXED.
A sure way to wound your friend
Is to- criticise his mother How
can you think of doing such q
thing?
You may be doing hel grave
injustice. IN any event, her a:.
fairs are not your concern. I'm.
less you can say kindly things, re-
main silent.
When we really love others we
put ourselves in stheE fpsaeh, and
treat them as we would wish to be
treated under the circumstances.
If you will try this plan I believe
you can avoid quarreiS with your
friend.
Just another warning. my dear.
It is unwise and in bad taste to
accept expensive personal gifts,
such as jewelry. from a man to
whom you are not engaged. Such
gifts place the recipient under an
tinwelcome sense of obligation,
and are likely to lead to an EN-.
barrassing situation.
Let young men you like bring
you flowers, candy,s bookg or music.
IL they wish to do so. But tell
them very s6eetIy -thats ycu cannot
accept personal gifts from a man
TO whom you are nit engaged.

CHICAGO, June % lP-Grain prices
took a late upward swing today, in
fluenced by increased likelihood of
black rust and because of expected fail

strong, wheat Is cent to Ia cents net
higher; corn a cent to rs cents up;

Z cents.
High temperatures reported in the
northwest became a decided bullish
factor as to wheat during the final
hour. The high temperatures taken
in connection with scattered showers
were regarded as ominous relative to
black rust, notwithstanding that cooler
weather by tomorrow was predicted. In
