It Is a comfort to hear that Lady Astor, who will land in New York this month. Is NOT to talk about America or American affairs. She Is going to talk to us, in the three speeches she will make, about England and what she knows of political situations there. We could take a discussion of ourselves rather better fromher because sho ia an American than from some of her predecessors on the platform here, but we like her restraint In keeping out of our troubles since she doesn't live among us.

The much quoted cost of living Is undoubtedly responsible for a line of business recently developed In this city that of renting dresses by the day. Evening frocks, of all degrees of elaborateness, tailored suits, velvet afternoon frocks all hang on Tacks in various little stores around town, for which one may pay two dollars a day or so and make an Impression of comparative wealth on such occasions as one has. that yearning. The amaslng thing Is that the leading Item Is wedding dresses. Fancy the life of a rented wedding dress. A new love affair In a gown's life every day. And on Manhattan Island, there are no attics for grandchildren to explore, where wedding Jresses are laid away In lavendar scented trunks, so It's probably all right and a part of modern efficiency.

Dear Mrs. Thompson: I have been going with a young man for about seven months and have become engaged to him. I love him dearly and I am sure he thinks a great deal of me. He bought me an engagement ring about one month ago, but fie says he is afraid I am not true to him. . He does not live in town and says he can't always be here to watch me. I am positive I need no watching. I am curely true to the man I love. He tella me to go with other fellows and he will do the same, but I love him so dearly I

i can't. Do you think he really loves ; me ? j Would he tell me to go with other fellows and he will go with other

; ; eiris u ne reany carea ior me, or j j L it just because he wants to go .... . . ' ' Ji . with other girls and doesn't know

, how else to manage it except to tell DO YOU HAVE PAINS j me to g0 with others5D0HEART. OR BACKACHE?: I think the young man loves you. Read what This Woman Says ; er he would not want to be engaged

and would not have bought you the rinjj;. He is wrong, however, in telling you to go with other men and asking for the privilege of going with other girls. Unless you love each other so much that you are willing to give up that privilege it does not seem to me you ought to marry- A man who demands the company of other women when he is engaged only too often takes the same privilege after he Is married. I assume that you are not separated by a great distance. In such a case I con see that it would be

unreasonable to give up social activities entirely. You can judge better than any one else whether or not your fiance loves you deeply. Everything about him should be taken ints consideration. If his love seems lukewarm and he is indifferent at times,

About III South Bend, Ind. "Dr. Pierce'? Favorite Prescription is the onlv medicine I ever found that gave nif any relief. I was suffering for some time with Inward weakness. Through this I became a nervous wreck and was so weak and "all in" I could not do my work. I had backaches and pains In my sides. Neither the doctor's medicine nor any other seemed to touch my case or give me any relief. I at last decided to take Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription and from the first it seemed to give me new life. It completely relieved me of my weakness and improved my generat health In every way." Mrs. A. Hapner, 527 E. Monroe St. Tour health is the most valuable asset you have. Tou should write Dr. Pierce, Pres. Invalid's Hotel In Buffalo, TS". T., and receive free medics! ndvic. Adv.

you have reason to doubt his sincerity. But if you feel only love in his regard for you, you may be sure his love is sincere even if he does talk of going with other young women. Dear Mrs. Thompson: I have been acquainted with a certain young man for seven months. I love htm dearly and sincerely believe he cares for me. I have become engaged to this fellow. He has been without work for several months, but now he has secured

work in another state. We are very happy because he 5s to have a salary which is a good deal more than he was getting where h worked last. He wants me to marry him and to go vith him. I would have to be ready by the first of May. Would yo'i advise me to get ready in a hurry or to insist that I have a longer time in whiah to get my things ready ? HELEN C I would advise you te go when he wants yon to. You can get enough things ready In a short time, and after you get to your ivrw home you will be able to finish what is left undone. Some girls work so herd to. get ready to be married that they are worn out and nervous by the time the wedding day arrives. Dear Mrs. Thompson: I hAve been tan since last summer. I have tried many remedies, but I don't get any whiter. Will you kindly give me a remedy? MARGARET. A teaspoonful of the tincture of benzoin to an ounce of rosewater forms a well-known lotion, which is excellent for whitening the skin. Dear Mrs. Thompson: Can third cousins get married? i ANXIOUS.

Yes, third cousins can marry.
