GROWING GIRL

Heart and Home Problems

Dear Mrs. Thompson: I am a woman forty years old and I have been married twelve years. I wa3 a very pretty girl and I was engaged several times, but for some reason or other I broke my engagements. I went with one boy for about six years. I never thought of marrying him because I did not love him. But when I was twenty-eight I began to feel old and I decided it was the best thing. My husband loved me and he knew I did not love him. He was always kind, but he grew very bitter and silent and did not like to mix with other people. When my little girl was five years old he failed in business and was very sick. I thought he was going to die and at that time I discovered that I loved him. I havo often told him so since, but he will not believe me. My life is very unhappy because my husband has gtown so moody. I think the atmosphere is bad for my little girl. What would you advise me to do to prove to my husband that I do love him? , UNHAPPY WIFE. Kind treatment and consideration will convince him more than words. He will probably not be responsive at first, but as time goes on I think he will see that you love hira and will be a happier man than he has ever been. Do not interfere with his moods. When he wants to be irritable and morose let him be. Simply do your part by making his home comfortable and considering him in little silent ways which you know will please him such as cooking the things he espe

For a moment I could not separate the real events of the night, before from the troubled dreams which had filled the hours since I went to bed. I had dreamed of babies all night lorn;, gruesome visions of dead babies, ter rifying dreams of trying to save dying children." "Dicky!" I called his name as loudly as 1 could. To my surprise he rose from a chair at the front of my bed. I had not seen him when I awoke. "Are you still bewildered?" he asked playfully, yet with an anxious look. "I was beginning to be afraid you were going to be ill. You've been having nighmares evidently, talking in yov.r sleep of trying to save some child. I've tried to waken you two or three times, but you wouldn't budge." "I remember now," I said. "The maid from across the hall ran in here last night with that baby in a con vulsion, and Mrs. Underwood had brought it out before the doctor arrived. Have you heard this morning how the child is?" "No. Only awoke an hour ago myself. Been watching you since. Do you feel like getting up? Katie has breakfast ready, I think, and I ought to be getting over to the studio." "Oh, Dicky, I'm so sorry to have kept you waiting. Run along now and I'll be ready in no time." "Don't hurry. There's no life and death matter waiting." I slipped on a negligee and breakfast cap, stockings and Japanese house slippers, bathed my face and hands and came out to the breakfast table. I did not feel comfortable, for I always tub and dress completely before breakfast, but I did not wish to keep Dicky any longer. "You ought to wear that rig oftener, Madge." Dicky's tone was admiring. "You look ripping 'in it." "I'm glad you lifce it. I feel terribly sloppy in it." ;

Dear Mrs. Thompson : I am sixteen years old and I am going with a boy seventeen. We both go to the same school. My mother doesn't care, but his mother scolds awfully. She says he shouldn't go with me because he is too young! Don't you think a boy of that age ought to be let alone to do what he wants to? We used to go to shows together and be brought me candy, but he can't even take me to a show any more because his father is influenced by his mother and he doesn't give him one cent to spend. Would you advise us to go together anyway? DOTTY DIMPLE. Both of you are too young to go together. His parents are right. Work hard at school and forget each other for a year or two. Dear Mrs. Thompson: I am a stenographer twenty-eight years old and I have decided that I want to take up touch typewriting, but my friends say that after writing with two fingers for the number of years I have I can never learn. Would you advise me to stick to my own method of writing? I can write quite rapidly, but not nearly as fast as the other girls. STEN OG. I would advise you to take touch writing. It will not be as hard as you think. 'Very often the girls who have written with two fingers learn to write touch system very easily because they expect it to be hard and they try doubly hard. You will find touch writing much easier on your eyes and nerves. Dear Mrs. Thompson: I have a boy friend who gave me a kodak for a Christmas present. Should I accept it, or is it too valuable9 ' BRUNETTE. It will be all right to .accept a kodak.

This recipe may be used for either home stewed or canned pumpkin.

These will make delicious little cookies for luncheon or tea. of a Wife GARRISON Katie brought in the breakfast things, her face beaming. "Dot baby, him better." "That's good," Dicky said. "How did you know?" He winked slyly at me. "Dot girl, dot Susie, across the hall, she bring back hot water bag early dis morning, say much obliged, baby better, tank you. Den she hurry back queeck." "Rather discourteous way to treat us, don't you think, dear? I should have thought the mother would have brought the bag herself and thanked us for our trouble." "Don't be such a stickler for the proper thing, Madge. Perhaps she thought you might need the bag. They probably are pretty upset, you know." 1 did not answer. I did not wish to argue with Dicky, but I had an inward conviction that the people across the hall were snobbish and ill-bred. I resolved, however, that a lack of courtesy on their part should not make me forget my own training. I meant to go to the door later in the day, and ask after the baby. By the reception I received I could judge whether I should offer any further courtesies. "Well, good-by, sweetheart." I lingered over my breakfast. I felt lazy, tired. I am not used to late hours, and they exhaust me. As I finr.lly rose from the table, the telephone rang. As I took down the receiver. I heard an unfamiliar feminine voice, its tones cultured, pleasant. "Is Mrs. Graham there?" "I am Mrs. Graham. Who is this, please?" "Oh, Mrs. Graham, I am Mrs. Smith of the Lotus Sunday Club. I just reopivpft vniir tints savinc vnii wmilrl consider taking the leadership of ouf history section. I am so glad. Where can I see you and when?" "I have no engagements this week at all," I answered. "Any day that

FRUIT GROWERS URGED TO HELP

Richmond and Wayne county persons and especially fruit dealers and growers will be called upon to contribute to a fund for the purchase of apples for American soldiers in the trenches and hospitals of France. O. A. Kemper, Richmond commission merchant, has been appointed chairman of the campaign in Richmond and Wayne county. At the last meeting of the International Apple Shippers' association it was decided to launch a campaign to raise $100,000 for the purchase of apples for soldiers in France. Indiana's allotment of this amount is $4,000 and commission merchants of Indianapolis have already raised $1,000. It is planned to send more than 100 car loads of the fruit. Apples, which are valuable from a medicinal as well as an edible standpoint, will be sent the fighters across the water, wherever they may be. They will get apples in the trenches as well as in the hospitals. All dealers of fruit, both large and small, are especially called upon to contribute to this undertaking. FOUNTAIN CITY, IND.

Suppose we imitate the marriage correspondence schools and each wear a pink carnation." "I think that will be quite thrilling." I replied. "Goodby," and I hung up the receiver. I felt quite esf ited, shaken out of my laziness. I resolved to dress i and take a walk. On my way out of the building I thought of my resolve to ask after the baby who had been brought into my apartment the night before. I came slowly back, and rang the bell of the apartment opposite mine. The maid who had rushed in with the baby the night before, opened the door. She smiled at me, but eaid nothing. "How is the baby this morning?" I asked. "Better I hope." "Wait a minute," she said. T will call my madam." She vanished and I heard a whispered comment. "Oh! that woman from across the hall. I suppose I shall have to see her." But the "woman from across the hall" was walking rapidly a-vay, her face aflame.

Relief from the zero weather Sunday was obtained by many local households as the result of a carload of coal that wa3 sold and distributed in half-ton lots. Vehicles of every description were pressed into service hauling coal, the purchasers being required to provide a way for delivery of their coal. So eager were many to get the fuel that at times at least thirty persons were on the car throwing off their bit. The car arrived Saturday evening but no coal was sold until Sunday, the rule being, first come, first served. A number of persons were at the car at daybreak. The car is said to have been sent here under direction of the state fuel department. It was placed upon the tracks at Glick Bros.' coal yards. It was said another car would arrive Monday. t Friday a car of coal was distributed from the tracks of the Quinn Coal company, under the same conditions as that, distributed Sunday. Before noon Sunday the supply on the tracks at Glick Bros, was exhausted. The first woman to enlist in the navy as an electrician has joined the colors.
