The Diary of an Engaged Girl By Phyllis Phillips

As Aunt Cecilia made this startling announcement I got up and threw my arras around her and kissed her breath away, almost I felt so scrry for her. She patted my hand gratefully and told me that the reason she had told me the story was to make me think carefully before . I made a raees of my life, perhaps, as she had done. To her way of thinking there is nothing that can compensate one for the loss of love. You see Aunt Cecilia was true to her lost lover for she never married nor was she even interested in another man after he disappeared. His name, by the way, is Jeffry Davenport, and ho is now one of the most brilliant engineers that we have in America. Aunt Cecilia looked positively beautiful as she talked about her Jeffry and I realized that she is still a young woman and and well, quite young enough to long for him as much as ever, if you know what I mean! To think of what she has missed through her foolishness, that is the tragic part to me. Jeffry has been all over the world building bridges and things for the government, in China, India, Africa and goodness knows where. Why, that woman could have been seeing those wonderful counl.-iea with every wish gratified, for the last twelve years, instead of being the "unhappy" member of our family. And euch a dull existence as hers has been. Mother and us to constantly remind

her of what she gave up for of course the dear girl would have had a large family, as she is very maternal and mother'B superior attitude at times, which I now understand perfectly. How she must have hated her life at times the esordid details of housekeeping, which mother thrust upon her, and the many lectures about girls who martyrize themselves for ideals, etc. When her poor heart was aching for Jeffry, for love, and a home of her own where no one could dictate to her. She waa made to be adored. I told Aunt Cecilia that when Jack and I were married she was to come and live with us and 6he would never be bothered in any way. But she Bqueezed my hand and 6hook her head eadly and said it was sweet of me to want her and went ort to explain hat young couples should be left to

themselves the first few years; li

don't get her point of view at all, but there's no use to argue. After a long 6ilence on her part she told me that she had heard that Jeffry is on his way back to America after his iong absence. The very thought made her tremble. WelK after all, dear Aunt Cecilia is only thirty-three. I have just finished read lng Balzac's "A Woman of Thirty," and understand older women perfectly now!

1 saw some of the paintings done by her when she was in love with and engaged to Jeffry and then some that she had attempted after the quarrel. It was dismal to notice how her technique had suffered through it all. I was quite sobered for a minute. Jack would be Just the same as Jeffry if I crossed him, I feel sure. Before I left the room. Aunt Cecilia showed me his picture. She kissed it and there were tears irv her eyes as she thought of her lost hopes. I've made her promise to come to tea tomorrow with Jack and me and to fuss up real pretty in honor of the occasion. She is so young and unhappy, dear old girl. It makes me smile ironically when I think of mother forever referring

to Aunt Cecilia as "an old maid." Mothers make such final statements, somehow.

Dear Mrs. Thompson: I am not ex

Where are the men and women whom we were, taught in childhood to hold up as examples, who are equare and true blue and faithful? Why is friendship held so valueless and lightly by people nowadays? I am 28 and so my observations are not made from the days of very long ago. I have always held that to have friends we must first prove ourselves friendly. I love company and fun. hence I have always wanted real friends and have tried to do all In my power to please and bring happiness

ness and good will.

Am I-asking too much of people? It strikes me that the loyal brand of friendship is going out of date. I have been deceived so many times and betrayed by people on whom I would have staked my soul that I have lost faith. I have made up my mind, henceforth to think of my own pleasures first regardless of anyone else. I am only human and it is not human to turn the other cheek everlastingly. FOR'f UNA. The World has changed so rapidly

in the past 25 years that the function of friendship seems to have changed too. People are pulled in all directions and too busy to give as much time to their friends as formerly. Vheir regard for each other may be Just as deep, but the expression less frequent. You have chosen your friends unwisely since they have proved so faith

to be a wise decision. Since you have ennn so far in the other direction, a

little selfishness will give you balance. There are Just as many honorable and loyal people In the world. Dear Mrs. Thompson: I am a girl of 16. I go to Sunday school and church and am a school girl. I have a host of friends, both boys and girls. Most of my girl friends go with fellows. I do not care to go, as I think I am almost too young. All of the fellows seem crazy about me, but when they ask for dates I refuse. Not often do they ask for more than two or three chances. Do you think I am doing wrong by not going? Do you think these fellows will care for me when I am older? Some I think very much of and they are highly respected young men. They all appear to care for me. PEGGY.

What's in a Name (Copyright)

EUNICE Eunice, like Evangeline, is one of the "glad" names in the lexicon of cognomens. Like Evangeline also, it comes from the Greek word meaning well, or happy. Eunice is translated to mean "happy victory." Because of its significance, the Greek word from which Eunice was derived, was taken over in early times

by the Christians, who adored names of happy augury. The names coming j from this favorite word are almost ' beyond enumeration, but curiously, !

only a few of them have survived to modern times. Eunice is one of these latter names.

It made its appearance as Eunlke, one of the fifty Nereids. Her name straightway became popular among Greek women, but it remained for Eunice, the Jewish mother of Timothy, to give it vogue in the days of early Christianity. English lovers of Bible names favored it for centuries and it is still popular in all the countries of Europe, though particularly adapted to English and American usage. The topaz is the talismanic Kern assigned to Eunice. "The chrysolite of sunrise," Shelly calls it. It is said to preserve its wearer from all dan

gers and to warn of approaching evil by paling in color, but it will be rendered impotent unless it is set In gold. To dream of it signifies that no harm shall be fall. Tuesday Is Eunice's lucky day and 5 her lucky number. The chrysanthemum, signifying cheerfulness, is her flower.

A great many people are severely bothered with intestinal indigestion due to the fact that the starchy foods, such as potatoes, rice, white bread, etc., are digested in the small intestine and not in the stomach as is generally supposed. To relieve this condition Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are well supplied with an intestinal digestant so that instead of practicing severe diet you may eat these essential, nourishing foods without distress. In the small intestine the pancreatic Juice acts upon the starches and ordinarily, in a state of health, possesses the power of converting them Into eraDe sugar and dextrine. Starch

must be so transformed before it can be of use to the bodily economy. Remaining as unchanged starch, it either passes through the alimentary canal, and proves a useless burden to the system, because it resists absorption, or it causes intestinal indigestion, the food products becoming acrid through putrefaction, which often sets up a catarrhal inflammation of the intestine, resulting in diarrhoea.

In a complaint of this character many persons use paregoric, bismuth and tannin to relieve the diarrhoea, all powerful astringents and they stop the trouble suddenly, "locking up" the morbid secretions, throwing the toxic Intestinal poison back on the system, and often causing auto-intoxication. STUART'S DYSPEPSIA TABLETS contain among other powerful digestives, a substance called pancreatin, which thoroughly digests starchy foods

in the small intestine, thus preventing Intestinal indigestion. These tablets also contain calcium carbonate, which is a mild though effective sub-astringent, and which by its antiseptic properties removes the intestinal poisons that are always present in Intestinal indigestion and diarrhoea. Not only are the starches digested by the use of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets, but through the action of other ingredients they relieve stomach indigestion and dyspepsia.
