Advice To The
lovelorn
By BEATRICE FAIRFAX
She's Not Yet Sixteen

She's Not Yet Sixteen
Dear Miss Fairfax:
I c.m a young man 18 years
of age, and I've been out with
lots of girls. Some I like tre-
mendouSly, and some bore me
to death. The ones I like give
me the air, and those I don't
care for are always writing me
letters and purpoSely encoun-
tering me on the street.
Recently I was graduated
from high school and now work
in store. There a certain
young lady comes once or even
more times a day. We joke,
and think she likes me. She's
in the second year high, and
not yet Is. She doesn't have
any dates because her mother
thinks she isn't old enough.
Have you any suggestions?
UNDECIDED.
If the girls mother thinks
she's too young to have dates
with boys, you will have to
bide your time till the ban is
lifted. However, if you Sue
ceed in impressing the older
lady with your general good
qualities and steadiness, she
may think you're just the boy
for whom she has been look
ing to have a date or two
with her daughter. Just con-
vince mama how safe and sane
you are.

Household Hints
Prevents Smearing

When cleaning brass door
knocknobs and drawer handles,
place around the fixture a thin
cardboard that has been cut to
fit it closely.
This prevents the polish from
being smeared over the wood,
and does away with an extra
cleaning job. After once obtain
ing the outline of the fixture it
is simple to cut any number of
cardboardS for future use.

StiffenS Linens

If you do not want to make
starch when washing table
cloths and tray-cloths, add a ta-
blespoonful of methylated spirit
to the last rinsing water. This
will stiffen them, and they will
be easy to iron afterwards.

Vermouth of
Turin. Betsy CaS"eH
From Venetia comes the de-
lcious white wine of "Soave,"
which, slightly chilled, is per-
feet with fish, and here also is
the origin Of "Moscato," deli
cate pink wine, much liked by
women.
A prince of red table wines,
"Chianti," comes from Tuscany,
which is a center for excellent
red wines. It is a splendid
wine to serve with beef, and
also is a good drink for a
luncheon where only one wine
is served.
I am toll. that some of the
best "Chianti" to be bought in
Italy is that served on the
Italian railroad dining cars,
and many connoisseurs order
their wine through the railroad
company so that they may be
assured of getting the same
vintage!
Superlatively Good
In the heart Of the Italian
peninsula is found a golden
yellow wine, slightly sweet, with
high alcoholic content, known
as "Orvieto." This is sold in
characteristic little rounded
TASKS, and is particularly good,
chilled, with spaghetti.
In this district also is to be
found the celebrated Est Est
Est" the moscatello Of Monte
fiascone, which has the repu-
tation of being tn best OF
white wines, and about which
there is an amusing little story.
In the year I'LL, Henry V-ot
Germany journeyed to Rome to
be crowned emperor. Among
the barons, mobiles and prelates
accompanying him, was one
named Deuc, who was a noted
connoisseur of wines. Search
ing always for good vintageS.
Deuc engaged a faster to pre-
cede him in his travels, and,
when a wine of unusual merit
was discovered, the faster was
to leave upon the inn-door the
mark in Latin, "est," meaning
sit is" If really superior wine
was found, the mark was to be
"est est"
Arriving at Montefiascone,
near Rome, the faster hap
pened upon a wine Of Superla-
tive flavor and bouquet, so, in
an ecstasy of delight he wrote
upon the inn-door lest est est"
ct is, it is, it is!!!p Hence
the name for this wine, which
is still as delicious as of old.
Serving Temperatures
Campania still produces the
wonderful white wines Capri"
and "Lacrima Christi" both ex.
cellent with fish. or white meat.
From Sicily comes "Marsala,"
q dessert wine of outstanding
quality and flavor, first pro-
duced in 1773.
There are also noted and ex-
tremely pure wines from the
Island of Rhodes, the outpost of
1talic civilization in the Orient,
which compare most favorably
with the highly alcoholic Portu-
gueSe wines.
The handling and serving of
italian wines is practically
identical with that used for the
French red and white wines
red, served at room temperature
with roasts, or game, white,
slightly cooled, with fish or
white meat.

No longering outside here, as

call the merry-makcrs ashore.
"Why not come along Why
not all of you. 80" Lila was
forgetting the occasion was her
honeymoon. She wanted to make
it a wholesale cruise.
At last they drifted away and
the two were left to hang over the
ships edge alone.

Her voice was decidedly pettish.
Nerves crept into it. now the ex-

audience had disappeared.

the family, her own mother and sis

refused to recognize her and made
her life hell.

Every time I saw a girl who at

let it warp your mind? If you could
have about six months of training,
long enough to see some real troubles,
you would forget to worry about the

There was moments silence, and
then he laughed and said admiringly,

frankly. Don't you suppose could

Il grant you that. There is a chap
here in the city, young fellow with
some personal charm, who is an obvi-

simple, hght-headed little thing. He
may be the man for her. I don't know
anything bad about him, just a natu-

His voice was scornful and MAZDA
WINGED at the thought of what all
men must think Of her brother. The
fact that Gerald knew Norine made
her certain it was Stanley who was
in his mind. Perhaps she ought to
tell him she was Stanley's sister. But
no, If she brought Stanley into the
conversation now it would be too OBJ
vious that she had recognized him
from Gerald's description. The only
tnlng she could do was to turn the
conversation, and that was easy to
do, as they were both tired of being
serious
Before they had returned to the
hospital they had recaptured the mood
OF careless gayety that had been so
pleasant the night before. The CLAM
our was gone, but Mazda liked him
even better. Her idea of him had
been little too much like the hero
OF magazine story. 1t was more
comfortable to find that she had to
kid him out of silly idea, as if he
had been Stanley or Johnnie Casey.
