criminal, that he can't be trusted in
feminine society unless he is policed
by yourself?
Such an exhibition of petty jeal-
ousy gives you away as a person I'M
convinced of your own attractive
ness. Jealousy is the wall Of rage
put up by wounded vanity. Your
self-esteem demands the exclusive
attention of the young man.
Because he spent an evening in
another girls company, you feel
that you don't rate as highly with
him a you
Your Pride thought you did.
Is What Is You Your pride Ea is ss hurt
Injured seek some one
" else, even when
you are not available. You would
prefer to have him sit at home and
twiddle his thumbs.
A girl absolutely sure Of herself
and sure of her power over her lover
can let him go where he will, with
out fear of losing him to the first
pretty girl. She can afford to be
calm and undiSturbed. II is not
necessary for her to issue ultima
tums and inflict punishments to
keep him in order. Her faith and
her trust insure his good behavior.
OF course your f1are-up is highly
hattering to the young man. He
knows that he can hurt you when
ever he wants to, merely by paying
attention to somebody else. This
gives him the whip hand if he cares
to use it.

Now that you have made the mis-
take, all you can do is to entertain
yourself with other boys until. he
comes back. Then tell him you can't
imagine what made you make so
much of small thing. You must
have had dyspepsia, which darkened
your viewpoint AS matter of fact,
you feel that every young man
should be free to see whom he
chooses. That's what you intend to
do. And what is sauce for the goose
is sauce for the gander.
In the future remember that peo-
pie who feel that love is certain
only when it is in prison are in
error. Fidelity can be given only
when it never is demanded. All
jealousy is a great waste of time.
II the beloved is faithful, your fears
are groundless. If he is faithless. all
already is lost. Nagging only forces
the cooling lover to deceive you.

JUST TWENTY SEVEN.
Dear Just Twenty-Seven - In
Harper's magazine this month there
is an article written by a woman
who divorced her husband ten years
ago for alcoholism If she had it
to do all over again, she would not
divorce him.
Here is what she says she would
do: Il should attempt to induce
him to accept medical care and to
endure concerned but not nagging
affection from me . If my hus-
band drank too much, I would take
him to good doctor, again and
again if necessary. If 1 had it to do
all over again, I would not divorce
my husband"
l do not know how to cure an al
coholic unless he definitely wants to
be cured and will put himself in
the hands of a competent physi-
clan. But this leaf from another
woman's book argues that if he is
bearable when he is sober, it is
better to put up with him with the
best grace possible than to cast him
out in the cold.
