Heart and Beauty Problems By Mrs. Elizabeth Thompson
Dear Mrs. Thompson: I am a married woman 27 years old. and have been married six years. My husband Is a good provider, but he gets so angry and Bays all manner' of mean things to me. He says I am crazy and ought to be sent to the Insane asylum. There Is a man I know who thinks a lot of me and I think a lot of him. He wants me to marry him if I get
a divorce. Do you think I ought to get a divorce from my husband and marry this man? UNDECIDED. You ought to find some way to be happy with your husband. The other man may be a good lover, but ninetytnlne chances out of a hundred he would .make a very poor husband if he married you at all. The type of man who makes love to a married woman can not be trusted. He promises marriage after divorce, but unless he is an exception, never fulfills his promise. "He gets so angry." you say. Could you not avoid much that irritates him? The fact that he is a good provider makes me think that he cares for you and would make a good husband, if you used tact. Most women would prefer the wildest anger, which is quickly over to a pout and a silent grouch. Be thankful for the happiness life holds for you and do not pick out the dark spots. Dear Mrs. Thompson: I will be IS years old in June this year. 1 am in love with a fellow who Is 24. Although I have known him for about two years, it is not until lately that we have been , going out together. He takes me out often and I think a great deal of him.
We have decided to get married when I am 19 years old. Do you think I am too young? He is alone in this country and although I am young I am willing to give him a home which he could call his own. BROWN EYES. Yes. I think you are too young to
be engaged. Your plan to wait until
you are 19 years of age is good. After a year together you will have more
reason to be sure of your love. Besides a year will give the young man time in which" to save money so that he can provide a home for you. Your idea of making a home for him is sweet and unselfish, but it would take a good deal of money in these days of high prices. Dear Mrs .Thompson: I am 18 years old and in love with a young m;- of 20. Mother refuses to let me go with him. She says I am too young and she wants me to forget him. I might be too young, but I know I can' forget him. I love to see him and be with him, but I have a hard time getting a chance to go with bim. Should I give him up or what should I do? A SENIOR. You are old enough., to have boy friends. Judgment, should be shown, however, in the friends you pick out. Trust your mother's opinion for a year or two. You will forget in time, if you give up this young man. Whatever you do, be open and above board and do not deceive your mother. It would be better to defy her than to be dishonorable. One dishonest act might only lead to more.
She Married an Average Man
BY ZOE BECKIEY
A woman is a constant revelation to herself. I had to wonder how I would act If Jealousy ever seized me. I woudl be reasonable, I told myself. I would not imagine things that had no reality. Or, if there were some real cause for anxiety I would keep my head and behave with patience and dignity. Ah! that was in the safe days when I had no problem save those of adjustment to the newness of marriage, as every young wife has. But now that the thing has come to me. am I behaving as I prophesied? Indeed not. I find not one can tell how they will act in a given circumstance until the circumstance arrives. I am behaving with all the unbalance and lack of reason that I used to condemn in other women. In vain I try to discipline my spirit, telling myself hourly: "It is only because I am not my normal self. Every woman whose dream of motherhood is about to come true has doubts and fears and nerves that cannot be controlled. I am not my normal self and the weakness of my body magnifies the burdens on my mind." ' But is is no use. I told Jim in a tempetuous scene this morning that 1 should nevor have another peaceful moment until Rose Green and her lures and coquetries are where they can torment my racked nerves no longer. "Ann," said Jim, "if I didn't mako allowance for your overwrought state I should think you had lost your . reason. If you are not more careful jou will become one of those women who allow jealousy to grow on them like a chronic sickness. And such v.omen are either pitiful or ludicrous." His words added fuel to the fire. "That is cruel and untrue!" I cried "If this girl is nothing to you, if you did not enjoy her kitten ways and the
danger of the challenges she flings you, you would have given her the letters of Introduction long ago ana seen her on her way to New York. But even conservative, well-balanced men like you, Jim, love to have their vanity stimulated. Oh, you may not even realize it, but its true. Men are all alike. Any pretty chit of a girl, if she daring enough, can swing any man out of balance. "Jim, can't you see I'm right? I don't want peope in the village to talk of you as they do about Charlie Barnes and and the others. And you're making me perfectly miserable." "Come, Ann. I think we have had enough of this foolish talk. A man doesn't like to be forced against his
judgement to follow a course his wife arbitrarily marks out for him. A man wants to dispose of his own actions as he sees fit. You are literally compelling me to mix into the affairs of this girl just to justify a whim of yours that she is a dangerous person. You are making a mountain out of a mole hill. You ought to trust me." "That is what a man always says when he wants to go on playing a game. You don't know women as I do Jim. You call a situation like that a mole hill! Very well, I see through the magnifying eyes of woman's instinct and woman's love. Oh, Jim, I I am taking a great responsibility for you! Do this thing for me. Give Rose Green her letters. Get her a position in New York and have done with her before I go crazy with hate and fear." (To be continued.)
SHE TiSLLS LATEST VALUE OF FOREIGN MONEY TO BANKERS

TV M RS. KELLOGG FAIRBANK, na-
1VX tionally known as a suffragist, has been appointed a member of the executive committee of the Democratic national committee. The appointment came as a surprise to many politicians in view
of the fact that Mrss Fairbank has been rated as a progressive Republican.

FARMERS OF COUNTY CONDEMN DAYLIGHT SAVING ORDINANCE
The board of directors of the Wayne County Farmers' association, late Saturday afternoon adopted a resolution condemning the proposed passage of a daylight saving ordinance by the city council. In a statement made by Theodore Davis, president, of the association, he said that not in any way were the farmers antagonistic towards the city, but that they were merely expressing their opinion. The resolution, which was ordered to be placed in the hands of Mayor Zimmerman before the next council meeting follows: Whereas: The adoption of the socalled daylight saving law by any city within our country is beneficial to less than ten per cent of the population: Whereas: The adoption of such a plan by any business house catering to the farmer in conflicting with the business hours of the farmer: . Whereas: The hours for labor on the farm cannot be changed, as the farmer's work is done from sun to sun: "Can't Attend Theatres." Whereas: The adoption of such an ordinance by the theatres and other places of entertainment causes such places to be prohibited to the farmer's family: Whereas: It is not necessary for business houses to adopt said day-light saving law, even if the various manufacturing concerns find a benefit in such a plan: Whereas: Such a plan would cause unrest in the labor conditions of the
country, and consequently a decided decrease in production, and therefore necessary increase in the cost of living to the ultimate consumer: Be it resolved: That it is the sense of all the members of the Wayne County Farmers' association, that tuch an ordinance, if adopted by any city within our trading bounds would be in opposition to our agricultural interests.
