VV. ..M.? I wish to know if the
boy my girl is going with inti nds
to d() as he said ? Why has he been
, acting so funny?
Ans: Marriage right now is not
what this young man waiYfs to take
place ami therefore he is taking
" "old feet'' and would give half he
=?t^mwi to gar nnt of the 1 nv tiift
he trade. You and your daughter
must make up your min-t whether
you wish tu push him or not . . .
handle him with care forhe's scared
stiff. r "
ir. i?.? inave oeen paynjff un ?
radio that thought and 1 can't finish
paying for it; now and the
company wants to ta"ke it. Phase
tell me something to do to change
their mind?
_ .Ausj Thalia. .impossible.^ .?vnu
can't, change their mmd. They sold
the radio f0 you on condition that
you paid weekly payments . . .
when you failed to keep up your
end of the bargain they must take
thfe merchandise. 1 would suggest
that you ask some friend to loan
* -r- yon the money . . . else let someone
tajce it who can finish paying
for the" radio as there is so little
left to. pay oh it now.
A. C.?Does this boy really !^vn
me and would advise nto getting
a "dtvore from niy^msharur? "Do"
you see any reason for, my mother
and father trying to keep me from
hpving^ company?
,Ans: Yes . . . your mother and
father do ty.it want you to go out
"galavanting ;iround" with every
Tom. Dick, and Harry when you
have two little girls there af home"
for them to. take care of. If vou
like get you 1 divorce . . . but until
you d-\ leave the hoys alone.. Yoitt
parents are intui t ?lod it) you being
happy*. but want to help you avoid
makings a mistake a.( second time.
B. M. 1.?Must 1 say ye> or Jin?
I think that he is .going tu.'hsk
nic this question some) inie -<><<n
and I am undecided.
Am-.: <jo with him, again if you
like'. . . but I do not see the "romance
you hope forblooming" with'
thisc young man. It world he to
your advantage to get him off
your mind, and look .around for
another desirable friend and start
anew.
N. B.?Will I always live this
lonesome life? I am a teacher and
_r?feel that I would like t.i> have some
friends the same as other arris hut
don't see.ir. to know how to go
ftbout^making them..
Ans: You're shy . . . ar.d you
must fight it. Why don't you at
c-ept the invitation to teach Sunday
school . . know the* high school
girls better sind join them on their
outings. This is about the best way
for one in your positron to meet
. . older fellows in a small town. You
'won't leave then' in .Unit bites.ore
... a decided chancy is going to
take place in your life right away.
B. B. V.?There is a certain
woman who is coming to my house
who dawns she is a friend of mine'
and I wish to know if she is ntv
ftiend ? For some reason I h.avo
my doubts.
Ans: She's your so-called friend
. . . but she would rather bo vout
HUSBAND'S FRIEND than yours
i uon t miriK it would t>e a food
idea to leave them alone too much
. . . after all . . . he's your husband
and you must kee pa careful watch
over him.

brings back my associations, and
one-in particular involving this
very place?the Senate Restaurant.

was a lad of fourteen, on crutches
very much underweight. My hait

unattractively dressed. With great
timldiiy I approached what wa.*

Restaurant, got up on a stool, laid
a - nickel on the counter?all the
money that 1 had?and wrth a great
deal of anxiety asked the genial
colored man behind the counter to
give me what I could get the most
