Dear Mr3. Tborapson: I am a young man almost twenty and am in love with two girls. One Is about twentyone, while the other Is only seventeen. Neither of these two girls is consid-
erea my equal socially. The first lives
in a nearby town and Is engaged to be married and I believe she loves me yet, as I have recently received several letters from her asking me not to discontinue writing to her as her affections toward me are the same as they have ever been. 1 really love her better than I do the younger girl, but
cannot say that I do not love the latter, as I have

"u longer, but she seems so young.' ' The older girl is well educated and a perfect lady although she Is not my equal. In a recent letter she asks me not to take it so seriously that she is engaged as there is plenty of time before the license is signed. (1) What shall I de? Should I continue my correspondence. with her or should I drop it? (2) What should I do about the girl of seventeen? Do you think she is too young for me? I know a lot of other girls, but none of them appeals to me as these do. It sounds caddish to say that the girls are not considered your equal

socially.' It is bad enough for a girl to be a snob, but it is far worse for a man. ' ' . (1) Drop your correspondence with the engaged girl. (2) The Be ven teen-year-old girl is not too young for you to have as a friend. You are both too young to think of marriage. Dear Mrs. Thompson: I have been going with a young lady who comes from a very good family and seems to be a sweet girl. She likes me very much and talks as if she was very anxious to have me call on her and escort her to the theater and picture shows, but one thing she is in the habit of doing puzzles me very much. After I have taken her out several times in the course of a week she refuses to go with me for a while. She gives no reason, but just says she can not go. I have found out that she does not go with anyone else. What do you think her reason for this is? WILLIAM W.
Do not puzzle too long over her actions, but take her decision as she gives it. If you care enough for her
to go with her a couple of times a
week continue to do so. It would be
an excellent plan for you to ask her
to go once a week, or even twice, and
then keep away from her entirely for a while. It may be that Bhe likes you,
but just gets tired of being with one
person so much, and in that case the
plan will be successful. If I were in your place I would take her out once
a week for a while and let her be the
one to wish for your company instead
of you wishing in vain for her so
much ot the time.

Revelations of a Wife BY ADELE GARRISON
HOW MADGE AND DICKY'S ' . ' MOTHER MET "Madge! What under the heavens is the matter?" Dicky sprang out of the taxicab, which had drawn up before the door of the drug store, and seized my arm. "Has anything happened?" he demanded excitedly. "You are rushing along like mad, your eyes are full of tears, and you are down here instead of at home. . Why, if I had not happened to spy you we would have gone on home. That would have been a fine welcome for my mother, wouldn't It? Nobody there to greet her but Katie. I reflected grimly that if ever there was a time in my life for telling only part of the truth that time had com-. "Nothing is the matter," I said shortly. "I went out to get some cream for Katie's pudding and some flowers. I stopped here in the drug store to get some of my headache tablets, and left the flowers and cream. I did not find tt out until I reached the apartment, so I dashed back after them. Some riusl blew in my eyes. I suppose that is whit makes you think I have been crying." "That's you. all over." Dicky grurnbl- " ed. "Risk not being at home to greet mother In order to have a few flowers stuck around. Here, come on and meet mother, and I'll go in and get vour flowers." He took my arm and made a step toward the taxicab. "No. no." I paid hastily. "I knowexactly where I left them. 1 won't be a minute." I broke away and hurried Into the drug store. I was almost In a panic. If Dicky had gone in to Irnvlre about the flowers he would have been almost certain to have found out that I had telephoned, not beueht headache tablets. T.ucklly the flowers and cream were where I had left them I detest the lava of arranging any part of one's toilet in public, but I did not want the critical eyes of Dicky's mother to see my reddened eyes and roughened hair which had been slightly loosened in my hurry. There was a mirror near the telephone booth at the back of the store. I took off my fur cap, smoothed back my hair and put on the cap again. Prom my purse I took a tiny powder puff and removed the traces of tears. Then I fairly tnatched my parcels and hurried to the door. Dicky was Just entering the store as I reached it. His face was black. I saw that he was In
one of his rages. "Madge. My Mother" T.ook hero. Madge," he said, and
he made no pretense of lowering his
voice, "do you think my motner enjoys sitting there in that taxicab waiting for you? -She was so fatigued by her,
journey that she didn't even want to
have her baggage looked after, some
thing unusual for her. That is the reason we got here so early. And now
she is positively faint for a cup of tea and you are fiddling around here over
a lot of flowers.
If he had made no reference to his
mother's faintness, I should have answered him spiritedly. But I remem-
1 bered my own little mother, and her
longing when fatigued for a cup of hot tea. "I am awfully sorry, Dicky." I paid meekly. "You see vou arrived before I thought vou would. I'll get the tea for her the moment we reach the house." But Dicky was not. mollified. He s'alked moodily ahead of me until he reached the open door of the taxicab. Then his manner underwent a sudden change. One would have thought him the most devoted of husbands to see him draw me forward. "Mother," he said, and my heart glowed evn in Its resentment at the note of nrlde in his voice, "this is my wife. Madee, my mother." Mrs. Graham was leaning back against the cushions of the taxicab If she had not looked so white and ill I should have resented the look of displeasure that rested upon her features. "How do you do?" she said coldly. "You must pardon me. I am afraid for not saying the usual things. I have been very much unset." The studied insolence of the aDology was infinitely worse than the coldness of her manner. I waited for a moment to control myself before answering her. "I am afraid that you are really ill," I said as cordially as I could. "I am so sorry to have kept you waiting, but I did not expect you ouite so soon, and I had some errands." "Tt doesn't matter," she said indifferently. Her manner put me aside from her consideration as if T had been a child or a servant. She turned to Dicky. "re we almost there, dear?" The warmth of her tones to him, the love displayed in every inflection, set out in more bitter contrast the
