Heart and Beauty Problems By Mrs. Elisabeth Thompson

Dear Mrs, Thompson: I have been reading "Dave's- letter to you vith laoth Interest and Indignation. How can any parent, especially a mother, stifle the fine manly spirit of her boy, for the sake of selfish gain. I have always wanted to shun two classes of people, namely, the selfish parent and the ungrateful child; they ouht to be ostracized. Here in our beautiful land of the free is a bright youth, craving for mental development and the very ones who should sacrifice everything in their power to aid, encourage and help him, are, through selfishness and ignorance, no doubt, depriving him of an education, but also making life bitter and unbearable for him. Any mother who will take twelve dollars a week from him who ought to be her own dear boy cannot expect him to respect him in the years to come. Instead of spending it all for the home, she should lay aside a portion for Dave's education. ' My heart weeps for the youths and maidens who long for an education and who, either through selfish parents or mismanagement are deprived of it, but "where there is a will there is a way." "Hope, star of life," has risen for "Dave." and may it never set. I wish he were a kin of mine. How happy

I would be to help and encourage him! To the boys and girls whose parents have sacrificed their all to educate them, and who have in return, given gross ingratitude, what think they of "Dave's" situation? "Dave" is handicapped on account of his parents, but he has a brave spirit, and a good heart. It is up-hill work. It may be slow, discouraging, weary. Keep plodding on, "Dave," success will crown your efTorts. Fight your battle bravely. If you find it necessary to leave home, don't run away, but first tell your parents you are going. I am glad the lady at the library was kind to "Dave." No doubt she knows and helps many "Daves." Kindness of heart is a rare virtue. YOUNO FOLKS' FRIEND. Dear Mrs. Thompson: I am a girl eigtheen years old. I have a steady boy friend of twenty whom I love most dearly, but when in the company of other boys, seem to like them better. I am in a puzzle what to do. Please tell me whether I shold stay by the steady or chcum with one of the others I like better? It seems to me it would be better not to have a "steady," but to have more than one of the boys you like as friends.

She Married an Average Man

BY ZOE BECKLEY

DENIES MERIT IN BRYAN'S COMPLAINT

WASHINGTOON. Jan. 23. Homer S. Cummings, chairman of the Democratic national committee, in a formal statement, declared that if complaints of William Jennings Bryan, as made in addresses Wednesday in Norfolk and Richmond, Va., were based on the chairman's attendance at the inaugural dinner given Governor Edward I. Edwards of New Jersey Tuesday, at Newark, the former secretary of state's comments '.'arc without merit." Chairman Cummings further asserted, had Mr. Bryan read the speech given by the chairman at the dinner, "he would not have made the comments attributed to him." His attendance at the Edwards dinner, the chairman said, connected him in no way with any movement having as its aim the selection of Governor Edwards as the Democratic nominee for president, since his position in regard to candidates was "one of imparital neutrality." Former Secretary Bryan, referring to Mr. Cummings's attendance at the Edwards dinner, declared in his address at Norfolk and later at Richmond, that the chairman must either separate himself from the New Jersey governor or resign from tho committee.

"Athena, I have left Jim or rather he has left me. We're separated. Everything's smashed." Today was the first chance I have had to tell my friend of our trouble. She looked at me with an expression 1 have never seen on her face before. It was as if for the first time in our long, close friendship Athena doubted me, doubted my sincerity, the justice of my cause. But she is deeply worried over her grandbaby's illness, and has been sleepless for nights. That has something to do with b.er asperity, I hope. "What do you mean?" she ripped out, sharply, not as a question, but as a reproof. "Just that, Athena. Is it so astounding? I had a sudden revulsion of feeling about going up to that hole in the country to live. I felt I just could rot! It would have driven me crazy, Athena. You ought to understand Say something. Don't stare at me as if I had committed murder." "I hope you haven't," she said very slowly. "But I'm afraid you have Selfishness, my dear, is not only murderous, but suicidal." "Selfishness!" I almost screamed at the word. Jim's use of it has haunted me all these days. "Why don't you call Jim selfish? Why give me all the blame? Why should I bury myself in that mudhole, bounded by the bridge works on one side and the sewing circle on the other? You and John Hast have lived away from each other half your married life. You have your interests; he has his. Yet you don't call yourself selfish!" , . "Listen, (Child," said Athena, quietly. "John ITart is a very different type of man from your Jim. You cannot use the same method with alV men. My old man is a dreamer, an impractical soul who had to be left alone a lot in order not to ruin the working out of his ideas and ideals. Too close contact with such a man. as in ordinary morried life, for instance, would make John a peevish, fretful man and a failure to boot. Your Jim, on Ihe other hand, will harden into stone if left to himself. He will grow cynical, bitter, stupid, a man of one idea business." "He will, anyhow," I snapped. "What does he care for anything except the works, the works, the works! lie tells me he will be 'quite comfortable' in the house up there, and it will be a simple matter 'to get a housekeeper to run things.' What does he care for ME, so long as he has his carpet slippers, his fireside, his blueprints and his comfortable bed? Talk about selfishness!" Athena made no reply, and there was a long pause. "Does a husband EVER stay in love with his wife?" I asked, trying to keep the miserable tears out of my voice. "Yes," answered Athena, earnestly. "The way to make a husband stay in love with his wife is to manage him understanding, not arbitrarily. You must be adaptable, not hard. Fluid, if you know what I mean, fitting yourself into conditions as they come along, and changing gracefully as the

conditions change. If in these first years of your marriage you made yourself indispensable to Jim and any wife CAN make herself so through mere habit alone you could twist him round your finger later on. I would reconsider, dear. I'd go to Jim." "No!" I cried, rebelliously, remembering Jim's hard letter. "It is too late. He has said he is through." (To be continued.)

Will Reid, Crow's Enemy Would Have 'em Killed Crows are the most pestiferous of birds, and are good eating, says Will Reid of Spring Grove, and the two facts should be acted upon by farmers. 1 ""The crow is the greatest bird criminal there, is," said Reid, Friday. He

destroys crops, gets far more young I

chickens and turkeys than do hawks, and drives honest song and game birds out of the country." Reid recommends that farmers trap or catch the birds and eat them, or turn them over to charitable institutions to be used for food. Prejudice against them as food is wrong, he says.
