Heart and Beauty Problems By Mr. Elisabeth Thompson
Dear Mrs. Thompson: I read In your column where yon are no opposed to a fellow kissing a girl or putting his arm around her when they are epooning. Why, for pity's sake, how long do you suppose a (drl would
go with a fellow if he did not do either of these? I wouldn't five minutes, nor any other girl I know. Girls want th3 fellow to use a little force In everything. How would a girl feel or act with a fellow that didn't even put his arm around her? Does a girl get a husband by sitting at one side of a house and he at the other? I can imagine what a man he would be. A girl wants a little loving once in a while. Publish this and answer it if you are game. HIGH FLUTIX' SALLJE. I am publishing your letter not to be "game," but to show how insolent and
cheap a girl can become who advocates your doctrines. It is evident that you cannot even picture a better class of people a class of young men and women who have outgrown their animal Instincts mfflriontlT tn exercise their Intellects
and enoy companionship and sympathetic understanding more than kisses and hugs which are given promiscuously. Hasnt It occurred to you that a young man shows more force to keep from kissing a girl than to do it? It requires far more will power If he cares for the girl. Later, when time has tested his affection, he can give
a greater love than the man who has
kissed ana huggea every gin or nis acquaintance. Try to feel that you are a pure, Mwoat Erirl. worthy to be a srood wife

Another ancient church covers the catacomb where she was interred and
the story goes that while her relatives and pilgrims who came to pay their homage were weeping there one day,
she appeared suddenly in radiant glory with a lamb of Bpotless whiteness.
The gospel for St. Agnes day was
the parable of the ten virgins and
since she was accused of magio arts,
the English superstition arose that by watching and fasting on St. Agnes
Eve, maidens could discover their fate in marriage; by praying 9 times to the moon and fasting three Eves in succession, they could secure whom they would. Keats, in his exquisite poem "The Eve of St. Agnes," refers to this superstition: "They told her how upon St. Agnes' Eve,

If ceremonies due they did right; As, supperless to bed they must retire. And couch supine their beauties, lily white; Nor look behind, nor sideways, require Of Heaven, with upward eyes for all that they desire." Agnes is popular in England, Scotland, and as a royal name in France and Germany. France calls her Ag-
nies: Agneta Is an English form; Ag-
nese, Agnesca,, and Agnete are Italian.
The Welsh form Is Nest. The jewel assigned to Agnes Is the agate which gives courage and guards its wearer from danger. It is considered a euro for insomnia and insures pleasant dreams. Thursday is a fortunate day for Agnes and 2 a tallsmanlc number. If she dreams of her jewel. It is sign of a journey. Her flower is the wild rose, signifying simplicity.

She Married An Average Man BY ZOE BECKLET
Since Athenna's masked ball I have not dared write In my diary. There are things which gain too much weight if put into words. The mere speaking or writing of them crystalizes them into definite form. And perhaps they are better left Intangible. Yet to shirk the deeps and rapids of life, paddling about in the safe, still water, surely makes for weakness. How shall we know ourselves, our possibilities and our limitations, if "we avoid all tests of strength? ( Since I have got to face this thing perhaps writing about it here may help to clear my vision.
Eric Sands is coming! There, I feel better for having set it down. At Athena's ball I was Bitting out a dance with the portrait painter. We were still masked and had been having a glorious time. The spell of the gayety and lights was on me. The champagne bubbled. Wits struck sparks from wits. 1 I was myself at myself's best. A new self, quite different from the dowdy bride I was at Centerville. I found I could make merry with the best of them. I found to my unutterable delight that I have power over men, and where lives the woman who does not glory in such power? I a married woman, yet at heart a girl .who has never really lived, never rubbed much against the sharp corners of the world. I whose only real adventure was that vacation trip to England when I met Eric Sands. I whose only thought a year ago was to be a thrifty wife, a comrade to one man, maker of a modest home and the mother of children. I, Ann Salsbery, age twentyfour, habitat Centerville, Ind., can live and love and glitter and hold sway and be sought after and garner experiences to warm the cold years of age! "I cannot see your face," he whispered, "but your hands tell me of your loveliness. Oh, you didn't know that that hands speak even more elo
quently than lips? And your arm. your throat, your wonderful voice! You can do as you like with men, my lady. But some day, mark me, you'll pay a reckoning." T laughed out of sheer joy. I was riding the crest of a wave. My spirits soared. At that instant I felt I could do anything I chose a writer, an actress, anything! "You're a silly fellow," I cried "You yourself have taught me howto ekim the sweets and leae the bitters. You and your kind have shown me how not to take life too seriously. Men are made of straw and glass. A woman sees through them. And when she troubles to look carefully she finds their theories are only fit to stuff old cushions with!" "Then you've not met the right sort of men," he answered. "I'll show you a new kind a man who thinks himself nothing but whom the world acclaims. A man who in his bigness of vision looks small in his own sight A gentle fellow, whimsical, full of humor, as simple as a rhiM, ytsrnmi;
as tempered steel. He's 111 now and coming over from England to get well if possible." "Oh, hi!" I laughed, "a paragon! And you think I'll acknowledge his superiority and stoop to conquer? What's your Invalid's name?" "He's a British soldier, wounded in France His name Is Eric Sands." (To be continued.)

The Greek word agos, signifying a matter of religious awe, gave the ad
jective agnos, meaning sacred, pure.
and it, in turn, during the festival of Demeter, which the Romans called
Agnus Castus.
Incidentally, the Latin word for
lamb Is agnus, and since this animal
was used for the sacred purpose cf
sacrifice, Agnes comes by her heritage
of purity and sanctity logically.
One of the first women to bear the
name of Agnes was the gentle Roman
maiden whose martyrdom named the
Church of St. Agneje. It is said to have been built by Constantine on the

FAIRMOUNT LADY OFFERS DETAILS OF LUCKY TRIAL Mrs. Whiteside Tells How Trutona Quickly Overcame Her Many Troubles. FAIRMOrXT. Ind., Nov. 7. As has been the case in hundreds of cities and towns, Trutuna has won friends quickly in Fairmount. among them b-.i-ing Mrs. 11. J. WiiiioMde, ".11 Sotn:i Barkley street, who sas of the perfect tonic: "For 1he pas-t year I've suffered from a combination of stomach, liver and kidney troubles. I simply couldn't eat acid foods without, having trouble with my stomach. Gas frequently
ormed in my stomach and caused nv belch considerably. I'd have severe pains in my back and sides. I would be very nervous at times and seldo.n rested well at night. Generally speaking I felt tired and run down and had that "draggy feeling" nearly all tho time. "I can eat anything, since taking Trutona, without suffering the former bad after effects. The gas formations have ceased to occur, which has done away with the annoying belching. Trutona has greatly relieved the pains .n my back and sides and my nerves are. in better condition now. I can rest much better at night. Rut most of all, don't feel all tired out as 1 formerly did. Trutona has given me the relief I've needed and wanted for the past year and I'm sure others may get the same relief if they take it according to directions. The relief Mrs. Whiteside Rained from the use of Trutona is typical of thousands of other cases. Men and women are daily testifying to the beneficial results they have derived froni Trutona for the treatment of a run down condition. Trutona is now being introduced and explained in Richmond at Thistlethvvaite's Drug Store. Adv.

half of th-e water evaporates. This for economy in shipping. The milk thus becomes as thick as thick cream. It is then sealed, then sterilized.

Don't Let Prices Deter You !! It was thirteen years after the close of the Civil war before prices on Lumber got back to normal. History has the habit of repeating itself and present conditions would seem to justify the prediction that it is going to be fully that long or longer before lumber costs recede to the pre-war level. Does this mean that the price bugaboo is to hold progressive America in leash and stagnate activity over this long period along the line which most of all contributes to individual comfort and happiness ? Cold analysis of building material costs indicate that such, while high, logically should not deter one from carrying out any reasonable building program. Lumber as compared with 1915 lias increased in cost by 84. All other commodities on an average have gone up 113. The price of farm products has increased by 116. Realizing then in this connection that there has been a material advance in the earning power of the average individual and a tremendous advance in the price of the product of labor, it is plain that the hih cost of building material, especially as applied to lumber is more of a hoax than a fact. With a glorious future before us and with pressing necessity for homes and other building development all about us ; with the all but absolute certainty that building costs are not going to decrease for years to come, it is the height of folly to delay. The wise man will build NOW, employ in? extra effort and stricter economy to bridge over the present emergency. Buill with a hopeful eye o.he future which will bring no disappointment to those who ACT to those who, correctly analyzing present conditions, do not allow thehigh price bugaboo to deter them.
