She Married An Average Man
BY ZOB BECKLBY
Well Jim is back from Hammond's i Corners, with a contract all signed and sealed calling for $5,000 salary as manager of the Oakes Bridge Works, with a percentage of the profits after the first six months! That alone Is enough to make me think I am dreaming. But there is eomething else that affects me far more. It is a subtle change in Jim. hard to put into words, but as definite as though he had stepped from one role into another of entirely different personality. Athena declares it is nothing more nor less than a new self-confidence-She Insists it is the same transformation a woman undergoes under the influence of love or good clothes! "Success in business," she says in her usual brisk, I-know-what-I'm-talk-lng-about fashion, "is to a man precisely what success in love is to a woman. Take an unpopular, drab little woman, bring some man to her feet, and watch the way she'l) bloom out! Good clothes have almost the same effect clothes and love are so nearly related. "By the same token, take a man who has been for a long time obscured by failure, or, at least, lack of grip, as in Jim's case, suddenly make him hit the bullseye of business success, and you galvanize him into new life. Once more he feels the lord of creation; once more he struts. Which is as it should be," added my wise friend, sagaciously. "But what waked Jim up?" I queried, really puzzled. ."Don't you know?" Athena squinted nip her shrewd blue eyes at me. I rhook my head. "Why, 'you did! I am amazed that
you don't realize it,. Carrot-top. Have I not 'told you right along that much as Jim bated the idea of you earning money, the fact that you could do it, and did do it, and are on the high road to actual success, goaded him first into grouchiness, then into determination! I could see it coming. Jim felt you were obscuring him. And
it made him mad. Being mad la usually an excellent stimulant. I often have to make my John mad in order to wake him up to something." "But but but five thousand a year!" I blurbled, trying to realize both the fact of our new prosperity and the possibility that Athena's explanation was true. "Jim will have to work like a Trojan to make good at such a job as that." "Of course he will," agreed Athena readily. "And -you've got to keep spurring him on. Be successful yourself and you'll make Jim successful. Set a pace for him, dear. He is a slow-moving creature, like the wellknown elephant. But an elephant makes an excellent worker if you poke him with a sharp stick. You must be the sharp stick." "Jim says," 1 told Athena slowly, for I hated to speak the words, "that we will have to go to Hammond's Corners." "Worse calamities have happened", she replied, crisply, biting off the corner of a cracker and sweetening her second cup of tea. "You don't mean that you would actually advise me to to go to that frightful crossroads?" "Ummm. Oh, now, think things over without getting red-headed about it, honey. You've a lot to think about." And I surely have. (To be continued.)
Heart and Beauty Problems By Mrs. EUls&betn Thompson
you on one subject and that is "loving." You think it is all right for a young man to work hard for his money and take a girl to ;a show 'and then to a confectionery store and pay a large bill and when he gets home to tell her goodnight and leave right away. From what I have written I suppose your answer is "if the men work hard for their.money. they ought not to take girls for a good time." But if they didn't, what would their friends think of them? You know as well as I do that a
fellow can see a better time with a bunch of fe.llows and the fellows would think more of him if he would run around with them and keep away from the girls. When a. fellow is with a bunch of fellows he can say and do what he pleases, but when ho is around girls, ho cannot, that is, if she is any kind of a girl r.t all. I know a certain young lady in this town who will let certain tellows love her and kiss her goodnight and I do not know cf a more sensible, a better or more
Christian like girl. I am sure a more decent girl can not be found. I am a fellow with experience and know what I am talking about. A fellow would not go with a girl moro than six times if ho could not love her. That is all a fellow goes with a girl for nowadays. And if ho can't love her he drops her and tries another. I appreciate a girl's decency but I cannot see anything the matter with a girl loving a fellow a little if he enjoys to be loved or rather let a fellow love her. According to the bible, kissing is ancient history. Mary kissed Christ and he did not tell her eho sinned by doing so. Did he? A girl here in R said that loving led to indecency. That may be true also, but you know as well as I do that a girl has tho privilege of saying "Stop." It. S. T. You have much to learn, in spite of your alleged experience, it seems. You wish to buy a girl's kisses and loving with ice cream codas and pic
ture shows and dances, which seems cheap both on the part of the " boy and the girl. Boys should be willing to enjoy a girl's company enough to be willing to take her out and spend money on her. If your money is so highly valued and you enjoy being with your boy friends so much, I
would adviso you to lot the girls entirely alone. I would' hat9 to have a date with a boy if I felt that he would so much rather be with the boys. You probably will change your ideas after you have had more experience. New Union County Officials Installed LIBERTY, Ind., Jan. 5.

Plain, Old-Fashioned Names
Are Style for 1919 Babies Following precedent, 1919 was partial-to Robert, John and James, for her newly born sons in Wayne County, while Luclle set the popularity pace for the girl babies. Mary Ann and Betty's balanced with a preference for George and Philip. Fathers' nemes were largely bestowed upon their infants, but mothers' names were used sparsely. There were a large number of Janes. Salonica, a girl, led the list of odd names. Nothing more difficult than Waldo was found among the male lists. Puritannlcal names such as Prudence and Pietry were avoided, although one girl was named Melissa. John Pershing and Woodrow Wilson were entirely overlooked in 1919's name selection, but several Herbert Hoovers were in evidence.

Dear Mrs. Thompson We are two worried wives and we are writing for your help in our case. My husband e.nd I have been married about 4 months. When we were first married he took me any place I wished to go. I have been sick and. he has been staying down town every night until 11 o'clock and taking my friend's husband with him. The other day when my . mother and father name over to see my husband about .ome work, he would not talk to O m because of some trouble we hid when I was married. He even will not let me go to my sister's when he is going. Will you please tell me how to make him stay home at night and take me along and also to make friends with my mother. (2) I have been married seven years and have three small children. My husband goes with the husband mentioned above aad stays out late. They claim they play cards at the pool rooms. We try to make their home pleasant for them but they don't seem to care for home at night. They both claim they love us. Tell us what to do. Thank you. It might be well to invite some of your husband's friends and their wives over for an evening of cards. Let them play cards as they wish to and have some good eats for them. You Bhould be careful not to be too
tired in the evening to appear cheerful, well dressed and entertaining. Do not nag at your husband about going down town, but try to make things so congenial and entertaining st home that he will not care to leave. Furnish his down town amusement at home if possible. He probably will eoon tire of being down town so much. Dear Mrs. Thompson Will ask you what may be considered a strange question. There was a bachelor working at the factory where I work who never seemed to like to talk to any Rirls. He was a nice man, about 32
years old and good looking. A young crass widow came to work there and lie look a liking to her and, she seemed to like him. or at least led him to think so. Just wheu he began thinking quite a lot of her. she gave him the "cold shoulder". This seemed to worry him and during the past week he left but we do not know where he has gone. What should we say to a lady that would do such a trick in order to make her see her wrong? INTERESTED ONE. Perhaps this man does not feel as liadly as you think. You had better make sure that she is the reason for Ills leaving before you talk to her bout it. Also make sure that she led him on. for often times when a woman Is courteous and pleasant to n man. he takes it. too seriously. How
ever if she really is to blame, you
might talk to her and show her the Wrong she has done. j Mrs. R. A. C. I have been unable to find the poem entitled "Devotion, Passion and Love" by McCarthy. Perhaps if you go to the library the librarian may be able to locate it for
you. I am very sorry not to be able to give you the desired information, i Dear Mrs. Thompson: I have read ,

GRANDEST THING I EVER SAW SAYS WELL KNOWN LADY Prompt Relief From Stomach, Liver and Bowel Troubles,
Neuralgia and Headaches, j i All Praise to the Herbal Rem-1 edy Dreco. i Rheumatism probably causes more j suffering than any one common complaint and no one realizes the torture '
unless he has been so unfortunate as to suffer from it. You seem to ache all over, the joints get dry and you can almost hear them pop and creak like a rusty hinge. The muscles become hard and drawn, in some cases the joints swell up and pains may attack you any where. Being in the
btood the only way to effectually get!
rid of rheumatism is to purify the blood and get the poisons out of the system. No remedy has gained such
a reputation recently to cleanse the ! blood of its impurities like the new root and herb medicine Dreco. Read what the people say Dreco will do. "I have suffered the most awful pains from rheumatism," said Mrs. Oliver Kennedy, who lives on West Main street, Muncie, Ind., but that has been completely relieved and I give all praise to Dreco for I am a happy woman again, well on the way to complete recovery. I can sleep like a baby and arise with a fresh feeling and full rf onorcrv- Mv f irtrl caonio t r 1 1 .

fore: the constipation is completely overcome; my liver acts well and I never have a headache these days, nor a dizzy spell. I have a splendid appetite and enjoy everything put before me. Dreco is a great medicine and I am advising all my friends to take it." Dreco is a scientific combination of
good old-fashioned roots, herbs, barks
and leaves. It contains absolutely no mineral salt; no harmful metallic drugs. It has been strongly recommended for stomach, kidney, liver, nerve and blood disorders and already there are hundred of men and women right hero tn this section who are taking it with excellent results. Mr. Powers, the well known Dreco expert, has headquarters at Thistlethwaite's Drug Store, to meet the local public and explain the merits of this great remedy. See him today. Adv.
