NOT RIGHT ONE

Dear MISS dU1dAs
"We've been going together for
three years, and 1 like him very
much. Yet, when I'm with him,
don't enjoy myself. His CONVEX
SatiOn is very dry, and I'm often
bored.
"When he's away from me, 1
often wish he were with me. Yet,
when he comes, the same old bore
dom sets in. 1 like him better than
any other man I've ever known,
but I'm not happy VIXEN with him.
Still, he's the type any girl would
like. IN"
The trouble seems to be that
you're in love with love, rather
than with the young man who
bores you. You haven't met your
fate yet. And, like all girls, you
are expecting to. Naturally, you
think of the young man you know
best, but as he is not the right one,
you are bored when he comes
around.
Please don't make the mistake Of
marrying this young man, even if
he's the type that all girls would
admire.

LOVeIOrn
Variable Man
Is Jealous
BY BEATRICE FAIRFAX
Famous Authority on Problems
OF LoUe and Marriage

OF LoUe and Marriage
Dear Miss Fairfax:
Hes so changeable and tenn
peramentaI 1 never know how to
take him. One minute he's affec-
tiOnate, and the next irritable and
crabby.
"The other evening he took me
out to a splendid club to celebrate
my birthday, and gave me a beau
tifuI watch, and was delightful,
and we had such a good time.
When l saw him next he was so
cross couldn't understand him.
"He never mentions marriage,
but gets furiously jealous if I go
out with anyone else. He told me
he'd never marry a girl unless he
could afford to give her every
thing.
"He has a good salary and makes
plenty of money. Do you think he's
using that argument as an ex-
cuSe?" "PUZZLED."
1t seems to me he belongs to the
type that is hard to round up,
as they say in the cattle country.
He hasn't asked you to marry him,
so you are at liberty to go out
when and with whom you please.
You tell me he gets jealous.
While jealousy is a detestable emo
ton, it's often instrumental in
bringing about a declaration Of
intention.
However, you would do we'll to
consider if you would be happy as
the wife of a jealous man.

bodice, with a skirt that is
full and graceful, and little
puffed sleeves. The cape has
yards and yards Of black
lace, and there's a hood that
can be worn to protect your

HE LIKES SISTER

Dear Miss Fairfax:
For a year now this has been
going On-my looking and loving
from afar, while he plays the
devoted to my sister. He takes
her out often, and l see them 80
with rage and bitterness in my
heart.
81 love him so much that I've
lost weight, and mother keeps
feeding me tonic, liver extract
and cream, when all that's the
matter with me is that I'm just
plain in love.
"Of course, can't tell the fam
lily that I'm in love with a man
who hardly notices me, but is crazy
over my sister. And I'm better
looking than she is, too.
LITTLE REBEL"
If he's in love with your sister
and you can only worship from
afar, I'm afraid there isn't very
much that can be done about this
affair. But there is always that
grand old remedy which has come
down from the dawn of the race:
interest yourself in someone else.
At first you'll probably be bored
to tears and hate the someone
else" with all your might. But
go through the motions of being
interested, and after a while you'll
think less of your sisters young
man. Perhaps when this young
man sees that you're more than
woebegone little girl, who gazes at
him from afar, he may begin to
take an interest in you.

ENGAGEMENT PRESENT

"Will you please let me know If
it is proper to take a gift to an

Usually only relatives and very
close friends give engagement
presents. Others give them If
they wish, bring them to the en-
gagement party if they wish. It's
just a matter of what you wish
to do. And, usually, engagement
presents are something personal
for the bride-to-be, not something
for the home, as are wedding pres

HIGH fashion right now is black,
II as you no doubt know, and
we find in looking up black gloves
that other things make them new
and smart. They are longer and
Straighter in shape, and fancy or
ribbed weaves are good. To relieve
the dullness of plain black, most
gloves have shiny trimming on the
black, such as patent or lacquered
fabric. The gloves we've sketched
are good example of all these
points. They are longer and
straighter, are of dull black
ribbed material, and have lacings
up the back of a shiny fabric,
laced right through shiny black
eyelets. The whole effect is ultra
smart, and these gloves will be
good right now and through the
summer as an important black
accent. The manufacturer calls
them "Skyway," for no obvious
reason, in case you want to ask
for them by name, and they sell
for $3.50 per pair, and come in
navy, too.

NEW YORK, March 30.-A reor-

Stores Co. Of America, which has been
approved by all classes Of security
holders and creditors, was filed in the
Federal Court yesterday.
A hearing at which terms Of the
plan will be considered further was

adjudged bankrupt more than four
years ago. Two years late the present

The inability Of various classes Of
security holders and other creditors to
get together during the long drawn
out proceedings to work out plan
was further complicated by . large
number Of landlord claims, which
proved stumbling block to agree
ment on a plan satisfactory to all
parties.
The present plan has the approval
of the landlords, debenture holders,
