The Diary of an Engaged Girl By Phyllis Phillips

He came, he saw,' and he was conquered. And oh, what it means to me only the stars and the deep spaces could ever understand. Prince Charming simply stood before the portrait of myself and said nothing. He seemed to be seeing visions and only at the end of an eternity did he say, "How strange that you should realize yourself." Then we sat down and talked of everyday things, and. smoked, and sometimes were silent. We do not need to communicate. Prince Charming and I, words are so useless in the face of tremendous soul upheavals so banal. Once he asked me to let him see my hand, and when he took it in his it trembled, noticeably. But he has the tender insight of Sir Galahad of old, mixed up with the personality of a Richard Coeur de Lion it's a fatal combination mes amies! And not by the bat of an eyelash did he let me know that he felt my trembling. Then I laughed, and the laugh was high pitch, so I decided to whistle, as a last defense, and the notes broke, and there was nothing left for me to do but sit and stare at him. I am a good hand at staring and I immediately became somewhat mistress of myself, and offered him a third cup of tea. Prince Charming vR8 most enthusiastic about my studio and appreciative of my work. He told me that he had always painted since he was a small boy, and although his work as an architect took up much of his time, he was

going to come to my place some day and perpetuate a master-piece, if I would allow him. Then we drooned on' and on for an hour or two, until he suddenly jumped up and told me that he had to go, but had had the most wonderful two hours of his life with me. We made no appointment for any next meeting. We said but little, but after he had left the room went dark, and there was a goneness in the back of my head. I sat down and cried and cried for no reason whatsoever! Then I had to come to my everyday senses, powder my nose, prink up a bit, and smile as an engaged girl fchould, don't you know. For in an hour I would be with the man of my choice. Such men have a decided objection to red eyes in the heads of those they love and possess. Hence my quick transformation. I was to meet Jack at the Cosmos grill room, and arrived there promptly, surprisingly so for me. He had not arrived, so I sat me down at a table and told the waiter that I was waiting for someone. Ten minutes passed, fifteen, and still no fiance. I decided to order -something to eat, as I was starving. And just as it was being served to me I remembered to my horror that I had only a quarter with me and Jack was still among the missing. A red spot appeared on both cheeks.

)

as I ate in a miserable solitude. How could Jack possibly treat me so? How dare he Invite me to dinner and then fail to put in an appearance? Never would I speak to him again. I was once more a free lance, as far as he was concerned. Stay engaged to a man who was rude? Not I. No, indeed. And I raged and fumed inwardly, until my quieter self told me to call up the bouse and tell daddy that I was held in pawn for my dinner. No sooner said than done. Imagine my surprise when on calling up I heard Jack's deep voice booming back at me from the great beyond. (To be continued.)

Heart Problems

Dear Mrs. Thompson: I have been married for five years in November. I have one girl and think everything

of her and want to be happy, but my husband don't like me and said he won't go any place with me. I go with my mother and father andmy sister and her friend and everyone has something to say about me because I go with them. I would like

to have him go, but he will not. They say I am not a good lady for I go with my sister and her friend. Don't you think I am doing right when I go with them? I have worked out all my life. I had a lady take care of the baby while I worked. Then something made her sick and the doctor aaid she could not live, but she got along all right. Now I can't get her to take care of the baby and my husband wants me to go to work. No one will take care of baby because my husband is so mean to any one who .tries. I am twenty years old and he is thirty-three. I think there must be another woman who gets some of his money. He says he gets so much, but he does not bring it home. What can I do? MRS. BLUE EYE. Young girls cannot be made to believe that an early marriage is a dangerous thing and almost always leads to great unhappiness. You have made your mistake and now will have to bear the punishment in one form or another. There is a chance that you can find contentment at home if you give up all thought of companionship with your husband and content yourself with your love for the child. , Continue to go places with your own people; if your conduct is above reproach, gossips will soon grow silent and will let you live your life in the way you

yourself think most wise. if your husband is making a living wage, you should not have to work. Your place is at home, caring for your baby. Close your eyes to his abuse and if you consider it for the best not to work, do not do so. Of course you have a choice of two things to make as happy a life as possible with your husband or to leave him. If you leave him, you do not know what is in store for you. Of course you would have to work in order to provide for yourself and child. I'-esides there would be the difficulty of finding a satisfactory place for her to stay while you worked. Pick out the things for which you have to be thankful and be happy in them. Make the best of the unpleasant part and have faith that better times are coming if you do what is right and earn happiness. Every act has its result. An unwise act, such as your marriage, brought unhappiness, while a wise, good act would bring happiness.

VERA There are comparatively few Russian names In vogue in this country. Vera Is the exception to the general rule which excludes such popular Slavic appellatives as Tatiana and Nastasia. Vera, indeed, is not purely Russian since it appears in Spanish nomenclature, but in both languages, It bears the same significance: that of "faith". It is one of the twelve Slavic names which appears in the "Monument of . Faith," a sort of devotional prayer

book applied to each day of the year with the names of each saint appearing in the Russian calendar. For that reason Vera has always been exceptionally popular as a Russian feminine name. It is doubtful, however, if her derivation is responsible for her vogue here. Possibly she is the result of the early Spanish influence in the American colonies, or again, it may be that the shortness and euphony of the name is the explanation for its adoption and practical Americanization. Amber is Vera's talismanic stone. It has power to make her invincible in all undertakings where bodily and mental health are required. It is said to ward off disease and to insure a 6afe Journey when worn by a traveler. Monday is Vera's lucky day and 2 her lucky number.

Why Children Need Vrr amines to Grow and Be Strong One child out of erery three is underweight, weak and puny, often from the lack of a nourishing substance called iritaminei which is lost from many ereryday foods before they reach our tablet. Scientist declare that this life-gfring substance is absolutely necessary to build muscle, tissue and brain and in order to supply the lack, of it in our foods, physicians are now prescribing nAtamtnti in concentrated tablet form known as VrTAMON to build health and strength not only for pale, undeveloped children but for nenrous, run-down parents as well.
