make the trip south? l feel that
it is more than I can afford right
now.
Ans: Transact this business
through the mail . your brother
should be able to handle it for you
and send the papers to you to sign.
Write him anyway it shouldn't
be so important to have you there.
G. E. L.-Would my financial
condition improve any if l went
home to live? Will l get anything
much from my song?
Ans: Your chances for good
paying employment are much
greater there in the larger city
than it would be back home. Don't
consider a change right away. l

mistake not to search for better
work. l see nothing favorable in
connection with the song.
E. NJ. E.-There is a man who
lives in Texas and he says he loves
me very much and wants to marry
me. am so undecided and wonder
if he is really serious.

no reason why a marriage between
you and this fellow could not be
happy and cOngenial make
your plans for an early June wed
ding.
B. B. HI have had pimple:
and blotches on my face for abou
three years and l wish that you

them as they are ugly.

of pimples and blOtchy skin
there's nothing to feel alarmed
about but if it would relieve you
mind any, go to your family dOctO
and allow him to change your die
a bit. A decided change will TAX,
place by the fall of this year.

don't allow it to worry you. He's
a bit superstitious and it won't do
any good to argue with him.
A. il have a real personal
question that I want you to answer
in your column, please, Sir. Tell
me what is necessary for me to do
in order to get what l want?
Ans: Before going any further
with your plans you should get a
LAWYER and receive the proper
professional aid that you need. /
do not wish to discourage you, but
it is indicated to me that you are
going to be somewhat disappointed
in your plans.
D. D.-There is an elderly man

I choose him for my friend?
Ans: 1t would be stupid of you
to think of such thing. This old
man couldn't make you happy.
Why don't you string along with
the young fellow he will get
good work and make some head
way before very long.
S. B. A.-Why can't l give these
two women up? There must be
some hidden cause that is I'M
natural. Help me.
Ans: Well, fellow, there isn't
any unnatural reason at all it
is just the fact that you allow
yourself to become entangled with
both these women and when your
wife returned you continued on
with them. You feel that you CAM
give them up, but you MUST DC
so. There is nothing to be gained
by going with them.
L. F. O.-Please help a little sac
16-year-old girl. l am considered
cute with a nice figure, but cam

l lost my sex appeal?

stuck up" and won't even con
slider them it is indicated t,
me that you will meet some mic
fellows this summer, older thai
yourself who will appreciate you
There is no cause for you to wOrr,
about not having friends, be con
genial and friendly and you wi
make a world of friends.

letters gradually melted into warm
love letters with the latest letter
our heroine received instructing
her for once and for all to let him
see her and tell her in person how
''daffy" he is about her. Rather
than risk seeing him laugh in her
face she gets her best girl friend
(who is tops in personality, looks,
etc. to meet him as if she had
been the letter writer. The meet
ing place was one of Minneapolis
popular night spots last Saturday
and our bachelor met the would
be letter writer" and from all APP
pearances fell head over heels for
her. Note: in a nearby booth
was the real heroine who calmly
sat by and let her girl friend take
away, before her very eyes, the
one and only man in the world to
her Problem: Our heroine can't
rest for wondering if she's done
wrong, cause she knows her girl
friend is really a heart smasher.
Shall she let things go as they are,
or should she tell the bachelor the
truth? Now what do you think?
Well, l think so, too.)
So, folks, that's all for this week
and We must be scurrying along.
