Dear Mrs. Thompson: . Perhaps not another , person is more Interested Jn your column than. I.. Not an evening passes that I do not read it. I am most Interested in the question of marriage, with young people. , Some

say, I am nineteen. Am I too young to marry?" And your answer is,-"Yes.? ' Oh. "yes" a thour sand times. .They don't know their own minds and after it is over the reaction comes which "awakens them to the fact they have married without true love', .which is worse than- anything . I know. I write from experience and not from a mere whim. Oh, you young

girls and boy, haste for you will

I? 1 .1 '

never marry. In

surely be sorry, for it "is not the good, true, lasting love which Almighty God Intended for our young boys and girls, and without" that kind ; you are anything but happy, no matter how good he may be to you. Nature will surely do its work- and before you realize what you are dding'you are seeking that love among other men until finally you are doing something that is anything but , honorable and - just. Therefore take advise from one who has gone through that very- thing. I hope my letter -will be a help to many who feel they know better than mother or father. . . : ., . Please print this, for I have taken an interest in your splendid advice to our young people. DAILY READER. I am very glad to print your letter It is good of you to tell us your experience and without a doubt it will have great weight with some young girl or boy who is about to take the unwise step of marrying too young and before the love is tested.

WHEATLESS MEALS. Wheat is the most pressing food need- of the Allies, Americans alone can supply wheat until the next harvest and they can do so only by reducing their total consumption of wheat to one-half normal.. Not all of us can cut our wheat consumption so drastically, but those of us who can do so, must. Some, indeed, are giving up the use of wheat entirely. It "can be done. Here are suggestions from the United States Food Administration for palatable and nourishing wbeatless meals. Housekeepers will be glad to know of these varied ways of using up the wheat substitutes they are patriotically buying. .'

Revelations of a "Wife BY ADELB GARRISON r

WHY DICKY SAID, "I HAVE A CONFESSION TO MAKE, MADGE." t' What did your mother, say" to all this?" : . ' . I asked the ; question timorously. Dicky and I were seated in the comparative seclusion of a rear seat of a sparsely-filled elevated train. I had wished to' put the query before, but had hesitated, fearing to rouse an unpleasant discussion. . ' Dicky laughed shortly. "Well! of course she didn't go into raptures over the affair," he said, "but I think, she learned a lesson. At least I endeavored to "help her learn on,e. I read the riot act to her after you left." ; ; . "Oh, Dicky!" I protested., "that was hardly fair!" ' "I know it," he admitted shamefacedly. T am afraid I did rather take it out on the mater when I found you bad really gone.; But she deserved good deal of it. . You have done everything in' your power 'to make things pleasant-for her since she came, and she has treated you about 'as shabbily as was possible." "Oh, not that bad, Dicky," I protested again, but I knew in my heart that what he said was true. His mother had treated me most .unfairly; J could not - help a little malicious . thrill of pleasure that he had finally resented it for me. - . "Just that bad, little Miss Forgiveness." Dicky returned, smiling at me tenderly. .1 My heart leaped at the words. When Dicky is in good humor he coins all sorts of tender nAmes for me. I knew

that, to Dicky our quarrel was as if it had never been. . "I'll give you another pointer about mother, Madge," Dicky weut on. "That is when you see her act as If nothing had happened at all; it's the only way to manage her. She can be - most charming when she wants to be, but every once 'la a while sks takes one of those silent tantrums, and there is no living with her until she gets over it." v '-'-:j v:-;"- ' ": I didn't make any comment on this speech, fearing to say the wrong thing. Instead I asked a question. '" "Did she get any sleep at all?" ' "Oh; yes," Dicky replied, "she was sound asleep when your cousin called, for which I was truly thankful."I felt as if my pulses had stopped for a moment before going on again. It was the first time Dicky had made the slightest reference to Jaek since our reconciliation in 'Mrs. Stewart's little sitting room. ;i: - ' v When I had covered bis ' lins with my hand, in protest Hgaint any rash promises for the future, he evidently had thought the 'prohibition extended to any discussion of the events of the evening.'.'' - '. V He had smothered me with caresses and assured me over and over again qf his love. Then he h,ad hurried me away after the briefest of farewells to Mrs. Stewart, whose attitude toward him was tinged with the aversion she could not help feeling. "She that-you look after that 'girl of yours a.little better," she said grimly as she stood looking after tis from the doorway. 5 -. '. "Thank you, I'll do that," Dicky had laughed back, gayly lifting his hat. Then as the door closed behind her

he had remarked banteringly:-"Your qld friend doesn't love me any better

than she used to. .. . - J I made' no answer; there was none to make, without telling a flat untruth,

for I knew Mrs. Stewart's opinion of my husband.' - But the casual reference to Jack from Dicky's lips made my heart very glad. ' He had never spoken of my brother-cousin before without a sneer. I knew better than to refer to his words, however. ..If Dicky wished to speak of Jack he must do so without any encouragement of mine. ' Evidently, he did wish to speak of Jack and did not know just how to go about it, for his next words were accompanied by an embarrassed flush. . ."I have a confession to make about

your cousin, Madge,", he began, carefully avoiding my eyes, "and I might as well get it over with before we reach home. Mother's probably asleep but she might wake up, and then there would be no chance for any talk by ourselves - "Don't tell me anything unless you wish to do so, Dicky, ' I replied gently. "Lam content to leave things just as they- are without ' question." .;.?No.t ; Dicky said stubbornly, "it's due" you and It's due your cousin that I- tell you this. . I don't often make a bally ass of myself, but when I do I am about as willing a person to eat dirt about it as you can iind.". ,. I never shall get used to Dicky's expressions. "The language in which he couched Tils repentance seemed so uncouth, to-me that I mentally shivered. Outwardly I made nr sign, however. - "When he came to the apartment," Dicky, went on,-"I was just about as nearly insane as a man could be. I had no idea where you had gone and I bad juet bad , the devil's own time with my mother and Katie over your sudden departure. "With Katie!". I ejaculated,' startled into speech. LOCAL DENTIST IN AUTO ACCIDENT EATON, 0.; May 9. Dr. E. J. Dykeman, a Richmond dentist, and another man who said that he was B. H.
