Heart and Beauty Problems .' By Mr&Elizabeth "Thompson

Dear Mrs. Thompson: I met a fellow last summer and went with him until three weeks ago. During that time we had two quarrels over nothing at all and now he has gone without any explanation and I can't forget him. What t-hail I do? We were engaged and he was the only one I ever loved. There is a young man who rides in the same car I do every morning and he told some of my friends he would like to go with me, but he acts timid when on the car. As it is leap year, should I start a conversation, or is it in his place to? LEAP YEAR GIRL. You should be thankful that your fiance proved his faithlessness before you were married. Forget him and realize that he was unworthy. Since he was engaged to you he should not have dropped you so uncermoniously. In spite of the fact that it is leap year, let the man overcome his bashfulness and become acquainted with you. He would admire you less if you started a conversation with him. Dear Mrs. Thompson: I have been corresponding with a young man from Missouri for about six months. I picked his name and address up as a soldier

troop train passed through here. He writes letters to me which seem as if he is a fine fellow. I answer them soon after I hear from him. He wants to come to see me this Furamer. Shall I let him come? Is Jt. proper to ask him for a picture of himself? SNOW DROP.

Your method of becoming acquainted was unconventional. Since the young man's letters have proved so satisfactory, however, I can see no harm in letting hom come to see you II your parents understand everything end do not object. As a rule a girl should not ask a man for his picture. This time it seems advisable. After you know how the man looks you can judge better whether or not to let him come. Insist upon having his picture before you tend him one of yours. Dear Mrs. Thompson: I am a boy 16 years of age. I have been going with a girl 17. She is very nice, only people talk about her. I wanted to find out for myself and so I got a date with her and I found out that most of what people say is true. She is very pretty and she can be very polite when she wants to. I have tried every way I can think of to reform her, but it has been of no avail. I am in love with the girl, but have no intentions of marrying yet. Do you know of any way I can reform her? My parents do not want me to go with her. A CONSTANT READER. At your age you should follow the advice of your parents In such a matter. It would be quite impossible for you to reform the girl. Reform comes from within and unless she herself wants to change you can do little to help her.

She Married an Average Man

BY ZOE BECKLEY

When Jim - told me today about a business scheme that has been on his mind for week.. I realized for the first time how little the average wife understands her husband's work. I3usinrss is Greek to ir.. When Jim talked of contracts, profits, percentages and risks I felt like running away. It. was ony -vhen it dawned on me that It was a real problem, the decision of which will affect our whole lives, that I forced myself to listen and try to comprehend. . "But Jim" I puzzled with knit brows, jt would mean our leaving Hammonds Corners and going to Silversand Lake." "It would, eventually," he 'answered. "That's the main difficulty, under presend circumstances. There are three months before the place would be in shape as an amusement park. I would practically have to live there in a

The fellow who owns the land has put his last dollar into the scheme. He needs a couple of thousand more for immediate improvements and I've saved that much. But I'd hate to devote my whole time and energy to it. What

do you say, dear? Shall we be sports and take a chance? It's almost a certainty." It's so so sudden, Jimmle; I don't know what to say. ' . And it's ' all so

vague to me yet," I answered, with spinning brain. "We're awfully comfortable here "

"Yes, but we mustn't settle down into mere comfort because it's the easiest thing to do. We want to get on, don't we dear? We want-to keep our brains polished up by use and exercise, don't me? We want to play the big game in life, not 'play safe' lust because there's a risk in the other." "Women are like cats, I suppose, Jimsy. They hate to be poked out of their comfortable corners. And we have just got this house into homey shape and the garden fixed and the furniture all to suit and " "Oh, cone, come, pussykitten; those are trifles. What worries me is you. It would mean you would have tobe here alone a good part of the next half year. Or take a run out to Cen. terville and see the mother and dad. Or have them come here. Or go back to little 'New York and put -up with Mrs. Hast. I guess she'd, take you in, eh? Or something ypu'll have to decide. The mention of New York and Athena Hast made my heart leap, Jim was looking at me eagerly, fired with the enthusiasm of a boy at his first big chance to make good. I almost said yes without weighing the many

pros and cons of the move. Then tjie j

more serious aspects of the thing came to my mind the separation from Jim just at the time I need him most, the breaking up of our home, the risk of the venture, the decision as to where tiny Jim, Jr., shall make his debut in the world. "Don't answer now," said Jim, patting my cheek, "think it over. Remember I leave the decision to you, little Mrs. Goodsport!" How I wish I had some sensible, experienced woman to talk It over with! No husband, somehow, can ever take the place of a woman friend. Ah! an idea! I'll get Athena on the long distance.

When attorneys failed to start legal proceedings, members of the local post of the legion appeared and asked that the property be purchased and given to the post, and this request was granted. The post plans to build a home on the property in the near future. UPSHAW NORTHINGTON WILL BE TRIED AGAIN MARCH 29 SHELBY VILLE, Ind., Feb. 27.

DRUGGIST WARMLY THANKED BY MAIN STREET WOMAN FOR TELLING HER ABOUT PEPGEN

"I suffered with stomach trouble and nervousness," says Mrs. W. A. Eyden, 2104 East Main St.. Richmond. "My system was in a general rundown condition. Almost everything I ate soured on my stomach. "Pepgen was recommended to me as being a first-class tonic for stomach troubles and so I decided to try it. I wish to state that I have given the medicine a thorough trial and feel that I cannot indorse it too highly. "I was quickly relieved after I started to take Pepgen. I can now eat anything I want and do not have indigestion afterwards. Pepgen has put

new life into me." Mrs. Ey den's husband is a wellknown portrait and landscape painter. Pepgen the medicine to which she refers, can be obtained from any first class drug store anywhere. Pepgen is not a secret remedy. The formula is printed on the back of every package. It contains only drugs of approved and recognized merit.
