Recently, with the coming of 1924 ' but a few weeks off. a number of ; Lorain's young men banded to | j'e'.her, resolved to forswear the deadlii i species during Ic‘.ip Year and formed the Amalgamated Order I of Confirmed Bachelors. Among its j by-law- are the following regulations. No member shall tlirt; the club rooms shall he bare of all pictures of girls or women: no member shall whistle any containing the | word ‘love ' no member shall marry | uuring 1924.

It is quite the thing to do, if you are sure he is the kind of man with whom you want to continue friendship. Your parents probably would like to meet him before you go out with him again. 2. It would be forward and foolish. 3. It Is advisable to let your manner, rather than your words, show a liking 4 Not yet, unless you want to lose his friendship. After you have known him some time, you may be able to give him a hint to help him. 5. If his family or some older person is there, yes. Convention places few rest fictions, these days. 6.

This is a matter in which every person must let. his own "conscience be his guide." according to his re ligious beliefs. 2. Os course not. 3. You know- it's not. 4. If the girl does not object 5. It's very informal, and a lot of fun, I think. We're not strong for formality, anyway, these days. 8. Depends on the circumstances. If the boy is front out of town and is being introduced by a friend of good standing, or. even if he is from the same city. Madame Grundy might frown a bit, but l wouldn't. Os course, the mutual friend who arranged the engagement should be along. 7. Why lay down strict rules in this matter? Although many girls seem to feel that an evening at home is wasted, I disagree with them. Unhappy at Home Dear Ms—> Lee 1 am a girl 18 years old 1 love a fellow a few years older than I I live with my relatives, who vex and worry me to death, and my parents will nt s a y whether I can marry this man or -ot. He loves me anl I love him. We •ave been tncrid- for one year He has rented me with the best of care. Please nlvtee me whether I must give up my friend or my relatives sake or must live a worried life REOWN EYES. You do not tell me why your t datives vex you. That knowledge would help me in advising you. You should not give up th# man for your relatives, unless they have a good Yeason for not liking Sim. However,
This was all right as far as it went, but the girls quickly resolved not to let the man get away with it. “If a girl wants a man, all the rules of the Amalgamated Order can’t hold him,” said Miss Aleen McGrady. in the first broadside laid down by th“ fair sex against the I organization. “Tin boys are bluffing,” said M;ss M i vine P olicy. "They can’t get away with a thing as foolish as that." So a counter organization has been t< lined and it is causing no HUle i once-,j .miong the ranks of j ihe bachelor.- Mi s Vera Moore, i one of the organizers of the "antis, - | declares the rules of the girls' outj fit will "make the Amalgamated bylaws look like thirty cents.” \Z still aie younger than you should | be when you marry. You talk as if you live with relatives other than your parents. Tiie tiling for you to do is cither to come to some sort of agreement whereby • thej shall not Interfere with your friendship with this man, or for you I to find some other place to live. rt tv.

Seventy-five per cent of the eligible vote is the league’s goal. "In the election of 1920. for the first time in the history of our nation, women throughout the United States were ent-tled to vote,” the call reads. “Most of them were strangers In the great domain of public affairs. They had much to learn. “Year by year since then the league has carried on with Increasing success the work of educating women for the primary duty of good citizenship—the casting of an informed and conscientious vote. “At Buffalo, the league will gather with another national election ahead, an election in which the work of four years will be tested. To meet that test, all our strength of mind and numbers, all our experience, all our wisdom, and our devotion will be needed.” OAirLs/yMitii h(Dr. CC.

BRONCHIAL COUGH ~1 FOR 36 YEARS Mrs. Bice finally stopped it, without changing; climate.
”1 had bronchitis for thirty-six years. When I was 2 years old, 1 had whooping-cough and it left me In an atvful state. I took hundreds of del- j lars' worth of medicine, with but little relief. I had to sit up in bed all night and cough and choke until my eyes nearly bursted out of their sockets. I could not afford to change climate. “Finally my husband urged me to try Milks Emulsion, saying if it didn’’ help me, 1 could get my money back. T tried it and have continued its use until now my bronchial tubes are I free and clear and T can breathe with j ease. Whc-n you think that I had | this dreaded disease all my life, you j can see why I want everybody to try Milks Emulsion.”—Mrs. Arina Bice, I 1451 Wendall St., Columbus, Ohio. Sprays and gargles and local rente- ! dies do not touch a cough of this kind, j The system must be built up to throw j it off. Milks Emulsion restores healthy, j natural bowel it is a truly j corrective medicine, doing away with all need of pills and physics. It pro j motes appetite and quickly puts the digestive oigans In shape to assim ila.te food, and thus build flesh and strength.

LETTER FROM LESLIE PRESCOTT TO HER HUSBAND, JOHN ALDEN PRESCOTT Dad and mother came this morning, dear John, and poor dad is looking pretty thin. I am quite sure the journey sacross will do him a lot of good. Jack, if you could see how delighted they are with junior it would make jou very happy. Dad took him to his heart at once and the baby put up his hands, grabbed his mustache and fairly hung onto it, which of course pleased dad more than anything else in the world. In fact, it has been impossible for mother and me to get him away from the boy for one minute. He even wanted to take him down to the dining room for luncheon yesterday, and when I told him it was against the rules of the house, he almost left (he hotel because he would not have his grandson classed with dogs and parrots and other such animals. Jack, dad is growing old. T never realized it until seeing him this time, iou see I haven't seen him since he was ill and he seems to have aged years instead of wrecks. “Made Me Unhappy” You forgot to say good-by to mo. .Tack, and it hits made me very unhappy .

Why, Jack, do you tealize that in all the time we have been married, even when we have gone out to a restaurant, you have always said to me, ‘‘Order anything you want, dear. Let’s have a beeksteak,” and we havs always eaten steak. Don’t laugh at me, dear. I could never tell you that, but I always wanted something else. Not especially because I w-as not fond of steak, but just because I really did want to have something to say about my own food. Think it over, Jack, because after this I am going to do my own ordering. Lovingly, LESLIE. (Copyright. 1923, NEA Service, Inc.)
