The Diary of an Engaged Girl By Phyllis Phillip

Spent the morning in close confab with Mr. Reade, and then he asked me to lunch with him, a a sort of farewell affair, which I did. He is nicer than words can ever tell, and bo man of the worldlsh, which is what

I like above all else in a man. We had a Jolly feed, and he talked to me about my work and my future until I felt quite like Borne of the other great journalists have felt like when first they made good. He instructed rne as to the best way to get my ideas over here to him from Europe, and we finally arranged definitely for next year. I am now a chartered cartoonist for "The Evening Leader" for the next twelve months at least, and If he had had his way it would have been for mr, for a girl like myself can never pvpr tnr a pirl likn mvRfilf can never

tell where she will be, exactly, from4

one year to another. Besides I hate being bound down indefinitely to anyone or anything! I do feel happy at the way things are shaping themselves for me it's wonderful. From my office (sounds so important) I called up Brixy, and commandeered .him for the whole afternoon. Instructed him to meet me at Dorrys studio, and to arrive early and stay late. It was then my sweet-sad duty to take leave of my pals on the "Leader," which I did. They were all so cordial, and seemed genuinely sorry to have me leave, even for so short a time. It made me feel most important. Got over to Dorry's at about three, and found her busy doing nothing. She looked rather pale and was not at all her old self, which made me suspicious at once. One gets to know the earmarks of love after a while!

That wretched girl is the only one

of us who has determined not to be

had nit at any price. She Is bound to stand alone and not be led to the

altar, what though both she and he

are !n love. Now I do feel sorry for her, for she Is going to be a second

Aunt Cecilia. Well, Dorry is that

kind of a girl, and I don't suppose anything will ever change her, If Love

can't.

She Is so self-sufficient she fairly makes me sick with envy! Talked

to me as evenly as though she was pot going through all the torments of the damned, and even broke into girlish laughter on one or two occasions. It was heart-breaking to see her, especially as she still had all the marks of recent tears round her pretty eyes. Girls are such Idiots after all! She told me that Bhe envies me my trip tremendously, that such a trip would be the very thing for her at this particular moment. Just as she was talking the telephone rang and she went over to answer It. I saw her face go quite white when she heard the voice at the other end, but she never turned a hair. Simply said in a quiet voice that Miss Dorothy Wilson was not at home, nor would be for several weeks, etc. It was mystifying in the extreme, until Until that foolish girl rushed up to me, after hanging up the receiver, and said In a shaky voice: "Hold on to me, Lindy, dear hold on to me now, tight as you can, for If you don't I'll take up that receiver and he won't leave for India . ever!" I knew then what It was all about. Knowing my Dorry and her obstinacy I decided there and then to take things into my own hands, and after a few moments I discovered his name and profession (engineering) ; also that he is about to leave for foreign

shores, broken-hearted. I then faked

a terrific hearache and asked Dorry for some powders.whlch she did not have, but offered to run out and fetch. I begged her to do so, and as soon

as she was fairly gone I danced over to the receiver, took it down, and In

a clear voice asked for Columbus 6620. When I heard a masculine voice on

the other end I asked sweetly if that

were Mr. Arthur Staunton, and follow

ed same by a quick sketch of Dorry, her red eyes, and her. deep dejection. I ended up with an earnest plea for Mr. Staunton to rush over here and knock the obstinate girl on the head.

if necessary, for Bhe was prepared to suffer rather than confess her love, and allow herself to be married!

There was tremendous relief in Mr. Staunton's voice at my news, and at the end he actually laughed as he assured me that he had felt all along that that was Just what Dorry needed, force! My, what a thrilling situation for Dorry, or any other girl. I did envy her as I hung up the receiver, and only Just in time, for she appeared one second afterwards, bearing my medicine in her hand. Twenty minutes afterwards Brixy arrived and we had a reunion. And shortly after that, just as I, hatted and spurred for other regions, was standing explaining to Brixy that he must come along to my home, there was another knock at the door, and in walked a very tall, very bronzed and determined looking young giant of a man. Dorry's start and her widestaring eyes was all that was needed to tell us who he was and how Dorry will thank me some day! (To be continued.)

Heart Problems

Dear Mrs. Thompson: I am a married woman and have three children. My husband goes away nights and I don't know where. I sit up and wait for him and when he comes home I ask him where he goes and he won't tell me. I don't think he ought to go every night and leave me with the little children. I do my own work and am saving, but he thinks the bills are too much. Things are so high I can't do any

better. He makes good money. I wear

plain, neat, clean clothes and try to please him. He Is always telling me

I don't do things Just as his mother

did. I don t know how she did things

and so what can I do? I am always

home and get his meals.

What can a woman do at home to

help keep up the expenses when she has children? I am not strong enough

to do laundry work. Would it be all

right to leave the children by them

selves and work in town? My youngest is eight years old. I love my husband and it worries me to have him go away nights. SUSIE. It Is your right to know where your husband goes when he stays away from home nights, but nevertheless, it is a bad plan to question him. Go to bed when you are ready and don't sit up for him as you have been doing. Talk has proved useless and so try silence now. Do not think of helping to keep up expenses. If you do it will only give him more money to spend nights when he is away from you. If you do your own work and raise three children you will certainly be keeping up your end of the matrimonial bargain. Most married women make their mistake by dressing too old and plain. You need to be pretty and attractive now more than you ever did before. When you were a girl and marriage was ahead of you, you probably dressed in an entirely different way. It is not immodest for a wife to wear pretty clothes. It merely shows good Judgement on her part. As for trying to do things as his

mother did, don't give it a thought. Be yourself and Ignore his complaints. Probably you have spoiled him by catering to his whims too much. Men don't like independent women, so they say. I believe, however, that independence is woman's salvation. She has as much of a right to be happy as her husband has. Dear Mrs. Thompson: I am a young married woman. My husband and I love each other dearly, but the people who live close tell he is mean to me and comes home for his meals

drunk. He has never tasted liquor in his lifteime. I have told people It "was not the truth. The more I tell that, the more and worse is told about him. He says that if they do not stop it soon, he is going to take me and move, which I don't want to do. Thanking you for your advice. RUBY. Dear Ruby: I think your husband is right In wanting to move. Surely you do not wish to live among neighbors who spread deliberate falsehood?. If they tell now that your husband drinks it will not be long until they will attempt to spread even worse scandal. Don't feel that you are running away in moving. Simply feel that you do not care to associate longer in the necessarily close relationship of neighbor with people who are scandal mongers. There is nothing finer In the world than to have good neighbors and good friends. By moving you may make new friends and there is no reason why you and your husband could not be contented and happy in new and cleaner surroundings.

but she hasn't half the vocabulary with which to express herself, when she has to go through every blessed one of them in order to find something. Men have been classified as "what women marry." They have two feet, two hands, and sometimes two wives but never more than one collar button or one idea at a time. Men will be boys! And the man who marries nowadays is looking not for a soul-mate but for a play-mate, not for a guide to heaven, but for a guide to amusement. Two things that can always be found in the dark: The sharp edge of a door and a pretty girl's lips.

What's in a Name (Copyright)

Bachelor Girl Sayings By Helen Rowland

(Copyright. 1920. by The Wheeler Syndicate. Inc.) Call no man wise until he has made a fool of himself over at least one woman nor hopelessly foolish until he has made a fool of himself over two women. Of course, a bachelor-apartment lacks all those little home comforts of which a man dreams but then, again, it lacks so many of those little discomforts, of which he never dreamed !

A man begs a woman for "the plain, unvarnished truth"; when in reality he wants it 6ugar-coated, scented, and spiced to suit his vanity and even then he can only swallow half of it at a time without choking. In the social swim there is many a

fish who started out in life as a porgie.4

8nd is breaking its heart In the enort to finish as "fllet-of-sole."

To a woman who is watching

her first baseball game it looks, some

how, as though both sides were play

ing against the umpire. Women may be free, but we are not

yet equal. A girl may have almost as many pockets as a man, nowadays.

GEORGIAN A. Georglana is a modernism which has

quite a bit of interesting history be: hind It. It means "husbandman" and dates back to the allegorical saints of the Greek Church, one of whom was called by a Greek name which meant "worker of the earth." The fame of St. George and the dragon carried the" masculine name to extraordinary heights of popularity. Prom it various feminines were formed with a distinct idea of honoring the saint. It was not a slow growth, but a deliberate manufacture. The first English lady bearing a name akin to George was a god-child of Anne of Denmark, who had her christened Georgia Anna in commemoration of herself and the popular saint. Later

the two names were run together and

Georgiana is the result.

Georgia is now regarded as a con

traction of Georgiana although it has

the right to separate existance.

Georgina and Georgette are French versions which have also acquired

popularity in this country. The emerald is Georgiana's talismanic gem. It is believed to guard her from unfortunate love affairs by giving her extraordinary keenness in judgment. Wednesday is her lucky day and 3 her lucky number.

EVERY WORD WAS FROM BOTTOM OF

HIS HEART

Richmond citizen very earnest

in his praise of the great herbal tonic, Dreco- which has done so much for him. Pain in back, rheumatism, Nerves shot to pieces, could not sleep, limbs stiff and muscles sore. Now well as ever.

"One day I read about what a man said about Dreco taking a load oft his back which felt like a ton of brick and I laughed at it but I now know that every word he said came from the bottom of his heart," declared Mr. H. E. Fleck, who Is a car inspector and lives at 2008 N. F St., Richmond. Ind. "I want to tell everyone what Dreco has done for me. I was so bent from suffering I was afraid I would be permanently deformed, as the rheumatism had such a hold on me. My back and limbs were sore and stiff; muscles were drawn and the Joints seemed to be dry; my nerves were shot to pieces bo that I could not sleep; I had shooting pains in my back and side. Really I was in bad shape but Dreco has certainly proven a blessing to me as I know more relief from pain now than in years; I can bend about and stoop over without the slightest pain; sleep sound at night; getting stronger day by day. I strongly advise sufferers to try Dreco and they won't be disappointed." No medicine introduced here has sprung into such favor as Dreco. Hardly a day passes but what some person drops in and tells of the excellent results Dreco has produced for them. It cleanses the system of impurities, increases the appetite and sends new energy bounding through every nerve; it restores tbe kidneys to healthy action and makes the sluggish liver waken; relieves indigestion, gastritis and constipation; quiets the nerves and promotes sound, refreshing sleep. It acts on the blood and banishes catarrh and rheumatism from the system. All good druggists now sell Dreco and it is highly recommended in Richmond by Clem Thistlethwaite's seven drug stores.
