HEART AND BEAUTY PROBLEMS 6 Mr. Elizabeth Thompson

Dear Mrs. Thompson: I am a girl of sixteen and am In lovo with a handpome young fellow who Is nineteen. We have been going to school together for about five years until now he has quit. He always seems to care for me, but not so much as he might. He does not go with anyone else, nor does lie go with me. I have been with him once. What shall I do to make him care for me? Would it be wrong to nsk him to a class party? There is another young fellow who seems to be In love with me, but I do not care for him. What shall I do to get rid of him without offending him? IX TROUBLE. You are too young to be in love, and I cannot believe that you could develop a very great attachment for a young man with whom you have been only once. Give your attention to your studies and girl friends until you are several years older. The young man evidently does not imagine himself In love with you, since he does not seek your company, and in that case your pride should keep you from forcing yourself upon him. Do not ask him to take you to a party. It is the man's place to make such , requests. If you do not wish to go with the other young man refuse all his invitations courteously, and after whilo he will see that you do not care for his company,. Dear Mrs. Thompson: I have a bed tnd dresser finished in oak and would like to enamel them ivory or a, very light gray. How should I go about it? Does the oak finish have to be removed? Any information you can give will be appreciated. A READER. The oak finish should be carefully sandpapered, until the uncolored wood Is seen. Then a flat white paint should be used as a foundation for the enamel. The hardware man from whom you buy the enamel may be able to give you 'more detailed information. My Dear Mrs. Thompson: I am a girl of 19 and live with my grandmother. At the close of school a girl friend of mine wants me to go with her to visit with a girl friend of ours who lives in a large city. I have been corresponding with a boy who does not live far from this girl we arc to visit, and he told me he would like to see me when we were there. Would it be all right for me to invite him to see me while I was there and should I ask this girl HER DAY This wa one of her nig days. Twenty-five cents was to be spent at the butcher's alone. Annie hoped she would meet Edith Romer. who would not bo able to sneer, "Oooh you're buyin' a ten-cent haslet! My mamma buys that for our cat!" No. On this 'particular morning Annie Hargan belonged to the moneyed class. Had not her mother put a whole dollar Into the worn housekeeping purse as she reminded Annie to be sure and get a bone along with the meat, and be careful of the change? In her best eight-year-old handwrit- : lng and with much wetting of the pencil Annie made out a list. Stew meat and salt pork at the butcher's. Tea, onions and a can of oil at the grocer's. .Not that Annie couldn't remember the Jtems quite well without putting them down. But it made her feel mor6 Important, more like the other housewives, to read the things oft from a list. Then she got the baby ready. Carefully she tied on its bonnet, stuffed Its sausage-like arms into its coat sleeves, and put it in its carriage. ; There was a dab of grime on its cheek ' and symptoms of dampness about its nose. Annie corrected these flaws swith the hem of her skirt. A COOL, PRACTICAL AND COMFORTABLE APRON 2623 This is a good model for gingham, chambray, percale, drill, khaki, lawn, sateen or alpaca.

If she would care if I did? What clothes would I need to take with hm, as we intend to stay a few weeks? How should I thank them when we leave? About how much money would 1 need besides my car fare? BABE. If the young man has expressed a wish to see you it would be all right for you to have him call, but I would ask my hostess' permission first. The clothes you need will depend on your Tlans. A light wrap for street wear, or a 6ult, some thin frocks for afternoon and a party frock, and a sports suit if you have one, would be sufficient for ordinary needs. Tell your hostess that you have had a very enjoyable time, and show her by the warmth of your manner that you mean It. Between $5 and $10 should be enough spending money, I should think. Dear Mrs. Thompson: I was plump and pretty until last winter, when I lost weight after a long sickness. What should I eat to increase my weight? T. H. K. To gain flesh, take plenty of olive oil, eat eggs, butter, cereals and fatty broths, potatoes, peas, bans, corn, carrots and parsnips, figs, dates, nuts, bananas, rare beefsteak and roast beef. Drink plenty of milk, cream and cocoa. Avoid food that will not digest easily, and be careful to masticate thoroughly what you do eat. Give up pickles and vinegar. Exercise freely in the open air, and take plenty of sleep. Don't fret or worry; this will keep one thin more than anything else. Cultivate an easy-going disposition, if you possibly can. Dear Mrs. Thompson: We are two girls sixteen years old. .We are nice looking and of good reputation and popular among the girls, but not boys. What la tha trouble? '

ROSY CHEEKS AND DIMPLES. , You are too young 10 De popular with boys older than yourselves, and boys of your own age are too young as a rule to think much about girls. Of course there are some girls of sixteen who are popular, but I think they are unfortunate rather than fortunate; they develop too soon and by the time they are old enough to enjoy young menthey are cast aside for new attractions. mm She tucked the oil can beside the baby's feet, spread the baby's best afghan over all, and surveyed the effect admiringly. In fact, the baby, when finally ready for the outing, made bo fine an appearance that Annie ha4 misgivings as to her own sufficient elegance of toilette. With a whole dollar in one's purso and the baby'6 best afghan in commission, it being Saturday and all, the occasion seemed to demand extra embellishments in attire. Annie climbed on a chair and stared into her mother's bedroom mirror, and regarded her reflection with disappointment. She saw a round little face with big. eager, round eyes. And Annie thought her eyes would be nicer if they were sky-blue, like Bertha Slmond's doll's; or sparkling black like the buttony orbs of Rcsie Rothberg. Annie's were not definite enough. In some lights they looked brown; in others, gray. Often they were almost blue and much prettier than Bertha's doll's. But Annie didn't like them much. Her hair was a source of wistfulness, too. It never looked smooth like Bertha's. Nor did it make a long, thick braid like Edith Romer's that the boys in the street pulled naughtily sometimes. It was brown and always trying to work into little tendrils and waves that her mother encouraged into curls by brushing them over her finger when she had time. Which Annie hated. She wished her hair araa Vinhhod nff altogether, like some of the girls in school who lived in the j nice .neignDornoous west m ium avenue. Some day, it she could ever save up the money. Annie plotted to go over to the man's on Second avenue and have it cut off Emma Davis had done that, and got whipped for it. Annie's mother never "whopped." Annie's nose was nondescript, her mouth of generous size. One day her father had laughingly said she "took after him, with a mouth like a catfish." Later, when her mother found out why she was crying, she told her that if she behaved prettily people would always think she was pretty, and that she might turn out good-looking, anyhow; you never could tell. (To be continued.) K. S. TENNIS MEN LOSE TO HAMILTON Richmond High school tennis players lost four matches yesterday to the Hamilton team on the Earlham courts. Three single and one double match were lost. The Richmond boys played far below their usual standard and Hamilton played a steady game all the way through. Eversman lost to Swait of Hamilton. He was a left hand player and although Eversman made him fight for three sets, the southpaw's drives finally conquered. Wilson lost to Blair after winning the first set to the tune of 61. Thornburgh lost to Horner after winning the second set. In doubles, Eversman and Thornburgh could not get together and lost two Btralght sets, 6-3 and 6-4. HE ESCAPED INFLUENZA "Last sprlnsr I bad a terrible cold and grlpp and waa afraid I was goingto have influenta," writes A. A. McNeese, High Point. Ga. "I tried many kinds of medicine, but remained clogged with cold. I then took Foley's Hony and Tar Compound, feeling relief from the first. I used seven (mall bottles. It was a sight to aee the phlegm I coughed up. I am convinced Foley's Honey and Tar saved me from Influenza." For oale by A. G. Luken & Co.. Adv.

PAULA LIND

Administering doses of -familiar American songs to shellshock patients in hospitals is the new job of Miss Paula Lind Ayers, formerly a concert singer in New York City, now a Y.M.OA. entertainer in France. Miss Ayers career as a song-physician began by accident. Whilo touring a number of American camps to sing to the doughboys, khe visited a base hospital one afternoon and sang to the patients in the various wards. "No need to go in there," she was told, in front of one closed door. "The shellshock patients are in there. They are making so much noise that they probably wouldn't hear you." "I should like to try, anyhow," she said. Before the end of Miss Ayers first stanza, all but three or four of the worst cases had been quieted, and were listening to the song. By the time she had sung half a dozen songs, a few of the men were joining in the chorus. It was the first time that some of them had spoken since they had been stricken with Ehock. . , After that she visited the rospital daily, upon the request of the commanding officer, and weiii to the other hospitals in the region. Without exception it was found

AYERS Photo by Arnold Ctnihe that the patients responded more readily to her singing than to almost any other treatment. Certain songs. Miss Ayers has discovered, appear to have a more beneficial effect than others. "I have to begin with the softer, quieter melodies," she says. "Anything spirited or ragtime seems to frighten the men at first, just as any loud, sudden noise doe3. I start in with things like 'Just a Baby's Prayer at Twilight.' 'Little Buttercup," 'Little Gray Home in the West,' and lullabies of any kind. As the boys' condition Improves wo go on to other songs, and soon most of the patients are singing with me. "I believe that in the colleges this sort of thing is called "muaico therapy,' though I discovered it by accident. Some of the boys have had very little treatment except music, and are recovering fast." Novel a3 this use of entertainment is, it is pronounced highly essentlon by army officers, and one of them, besides commending Miss Ayers for her work, has ordered this "song treatment" for all the shellshock cases in his command. This Is one reason why the "Y" has called for 375 more entertainers to go overseas. The hospitals need them almost as much as the ".ta ters iif. Mrs. Morton 1 in drippings, a ndfor a medium sized onion ad done-half cup canned tomatoes. Then add a cupful or less, of cold beans. Add salt and cayenne pepper.

If Your Battery Could Talk One thing it would say is : "Don't starve me." Another: "Don't let me die of thirst." A third: "Test me oftenwith a hydrometer." Those are all simple rules, and easy to remember, but to your battery they mean the difference between a long life and a short one. There are other things that ought to be kept in mind if you look after your own battery. It will pay you to ask us what these are the next time you come in fora hydrometer test or to have distilled water put into your battery. THE RICHMOND ELECTRIC CO.
