think about it? She goes with me to shows, but I never make love to her, for I know she would not allow it. I am a jealous-hearted fellow and hate to see her with others.

Sixteen years is a very ,great difference in your ages, and since the girl says she does not love you and offers no encouragement, you might just as well give up, thought of marriage. You will have to make your own choice of keeping the girl as a friend, until she marries some one else, or giving her up now, trying to be happy in the company of some one else. Don't forget that you had your great adventure when you were married before. It seems to me that the girl is right in wanting a man more nearly her own age and who, like herself, has not been married before.
She Married an Average Man
BY ZOE BECKLEY
I have felt that Mrs. Pardoe has been sizing up and sounding me without seeming to do so while regaling mewith the stories of Hammonds Corners folks. Today when she arrived "to introduce the people in the little house next to the blacksmith's she made the following prelude: "I hope you ain't a jealous wife, Mis' Salsbery." looking archly at me over her sewing. I kept my eyes on the piece of embroidery in my hands and answersd, "Not more than the average, I guess." "Well, the average wife's a pretty jealous animal," she snapped. "If I was you I'd never gtve it a thought It all depends on the man you got! If you've got the philanderin' kind, he'll philander sooner or later, no matter how hard you try to hold him. If you've got the faithful kind you can do anything or be anything, or do nothin' and be nothin,' and he will keep on settin' by the Are and callin' you sweetheart till he loses his teeth and can't mumble nothin'." "But why do you ask if I am jealous? What has that to do with the house by the blacksmith's?" "Just this that Rose Green (she's my half-brother's child) lives in that house, and she's the typewriter and file clerk to the bridge works " "Oh! And you fear Jim my husband, may grow too much interested? ,Is she o pretty?" " 'Tain't so much her prettiness." answered Agatha Green, "as 'tis her ways. She takes after her pa. Now, if her pa, Natraniel Rudolph Green, had married Lilliam Russell, Sarah Bernhardt. Lady Duff Gordon and Queen Cleopatra all rolled Into one, he'd have gone chasin' after -some half-baked chorus girl. Nothin' could stop him." "What's his wife like?" I asked, trying to keep my mind off this chip of the old block, Daughter Rose. "That's just what I'm gettin' at. Nat Green's wife, Rosamond Shale, she was, is the grandest woman that ever walked on two feet. She was a picture to look at; she was sweet, she was smart, she was good aud she was well off. And she worshiped the ground Nat walked on. "Now if a wife like that can't keep a man from strayin' off like a hound pup Id like to know who could!" Mrs. Pardoe compressed her lips and paused, regarding me so fixedly that I had to say something. "No one could, I guess. It's the nature of some men to stray, as you call it, no matter how faithfully their wives try to hold them." "There! Now you've said something!" cried Agatha P. with vehemence. ""That's my idea. But I would go further. I say it ain't worth any woman's while strainin' her riggin to keep a man. The ones that strains their riggin's the hardest and them that don't try at all comes to the
Oaija Board Devotees Weak-Minded, Morons, Says Brain Expert You'd better tie a can to your ouija hoard and kiss your favorite spirit control good-by unless you want to end up in the psychopathic laboratory struggling desperately - to pass the irioron test. Dr. William J. Hickson. director of the world's leading psychopathic laboratory, which is located in Chicago is watching the ouija board craze with a keen professional Interst. Dr. Hick son is considered the leading psychopathologist in America. "We've been getting dozens of spiritualists in here," he explained, "as well as oui.la board fans and seance habitues. They arc. of course, praecox cases to begin with before they go in for listening to the ghost rattle the tambourine and watching -him spell out the messages from the other world on the ouija board. If they weren't they wouldn't go in for such imbecilities. "It is not exactly inexplicable the other world craze. The v-orld is continually full of praecox victims. A nraecox is a person whose innate desire is to get away from Hie world of fnct. to evade" his material responsibilities. He resorts to curious devices for the fulfilling of this ambition. Hallucinations, obsessions and what not seize upon him. The ouija and the seance offer escape also. "The advertising spiritualism has received is slowly turning the attention ot all the praecox victims to it and if it keeps on we will find practically every demented, semidemented, underdeveloped, nnd praecox case in the country talking with the other world." CO-OPERATIVE CONGRESS OPENS (By Associated Press) CHICAGO, Feb. 12. An all-Ameri-, can farmers' labor co-operative congress opened here today for the announced purpose of standardizing cooperative methods, and promoting direct trade and co-operative banking and credits. Approximately 100 delegates were in attendance. The congress will last three days.
same thing! It's all in the man. Look at my old man, Tom Green! I ain't any beauty, lor' knows. ' And I ain't got any education to brag about, and my clothes never seem to hook together right. But Thomas just sticks and sticks and sticks and thinks I'm grand. Don't it beat all?" "I shouldn't think Rosamond would have much trouble with her husband in Hammonds Corners," I suggested. "Huh ! They ain't always lived here, my dear. And he ain't hardly ever there. But I must .be going. Now, don't you fret over anything I said Good-by." What does she mean by that? (To be continued.)

LEE'S DESCENDANT AT SOUTHERN BALL
T. H. I. & E. ASKS FREIGHT INCREASE A petition was filed Thursday with the public service commission by the T. H . I. & E. Traction company, which runs through Richmond, and by two other companies, asking that the ex
press rates establisned last jear "eiyork is sending a full sized -duplicate
increased on certain classes of freight.
The petition also asks that the minimum charge of 25 cents be changed to 40 cents, and to 50 cents in inter-line shipments. The present uniform express freight tariffs are based on 150 per cent of he first class rate for local traffic
j with an increase of 20 per cent on
traffic covering two or more lines. The companies desire to apply the 150 per cent to first and lower classes of freight as at present, but desire to apply the express charge to shipment rates listed higher than first class. O. P. Gothlin, rate expert of the commission, explained that bulky articles, such as furniture, are listed higher than first-class and would be affected by the increase in express rates. As an illustration, kitchen cabinets are shipped by freight at one and one-half the first-class rate. The first-class rate is 40 cents for 75 miles. The rate for cabinets at presnt is 60 cents either by express or freight, but if the 150 per cent, express charge is allowed on miltinle rates the express rate for this article would be 90 cents.
