The Diary of an Engaged Girl By PtsyMI PlstWy
Saturday Haven t even Had time to write in my diary eince Thursday too '. much doing all the time. Have been ; swirled here, there and everywhere, and met several interesting people men mostly. Cecil has Just been perfect, and all the things I have wanted to see ever since I was knee-high to a grasshop- , per, he has taken me to see. My breath has been fairly knocked out of me at times. When we left the Braisserie de Lllas Thursday at twilight, he suggested a short trip up the Seine "Just to see the reflection of the evening sky in its waters." So oft we started. One of those low,' epeedy little boats steamed soundlessly up the river with us, and I felt as if I was flying through the water. The green banks on each

too did the pretty little maisons that
nestled clsoe to the water's edge. The Thames may be "Hauld History," but
the Seine is liquid Beauty! That Is Lindsey's own opinion. Coming back it was really beautiful, for the sun shot its last rays over the
city and Seine, and we seemed to be playing "London Bridges" with rosy bridges ast he keepers. Then the sun sank hilariously behind a tall church tower, and the gleaming, twinkling lights of Paris began to appear on the bridges and from everywhere. Cecil and I hardly spoke a word during the entire trip. We were far too much carried away by the beauties of Nature to bother' about each other. And it was not until he helped me out of the little skiff that we found our tongues again, and began to wag them madly. And since then well, we've seen so many other lovely sights that I can hardly remember Just where we have been. Yesterday we went out to Saint Cloud and Versailles, spent the entire day wandering through the beautiful gardens there or lying on the soft grass listening to the strains of soft music that was borne to us from some band or other Just where we did not know nor care. Then we walked for miles along the highroads, and visited all sorts of quaint little .out-door cafes, such as I had never seen before. In' one of these shady hostalries we had an apperitif, and sat- and watched the crowds enjoying themselves in their own, simple way. The young girls and boys chased each other over the lawns, and danced to the strains of an old violin played by a ragged young urchin, and when
they were tired of dancing they sat dwon in large circles and sang songs. It was good to see and hear them. And thev npemed such unaffected and
simple young things, all of them.!
Happy Just to be alive and allowed to j play about In their own way under the l open skies. - , . ' j After we had walked a long way we came to an inn with a wide veranda which looked over the forests. Here we had our dinner and sat and talked until the moon came up stealthily over the tops of the tallest trees and laughed at both of us cannily Rural Prance ah 1 of which there is no lovelier; and the soft-eyed cduntry people that one meets, they too, are lovely and gentle as their own country-Bides. The young girls are so modest and shy and sloe-eled, douce and kiasable, for they are red-lipped and provocative, without having any knowledge of the meaning of that citycoined wordl Voila, such is their charm. I should like nothing better than
to be allowed to spend a year in France, and Just paint,' paint, paintall and everything and everybody I felt like painting. Maybe I shall some day. Now I am very tired; must sleep. (To be continued )
Heart Problems j . . Mrs. Thompson: We are two girls in high school, 15 and 16, have a good home, and mother furnishes all clothes and eats, but
we went to a dance recently against her wishes and had a splendid good time, but when we came home she reprimanded us severely and gave us
both a whipping. Papa is hardly ever
home and when he Is it is always
deeds, mortgages, and real estate and how to make more money. We are
thinking of leaving home and have written the Ford Motor company at Detroit, but board and room are so hleh we are undecided.. What we
want is to earn our own , clothes and spending money and coma and go as
we please. We have no work at
home, as mother does it all. We are giving facts so you can advise what
course to take. GLADYS AND EDITH. You would be making a great mis
take in leaving home. You would not
be happy in Detroit, as you w.ould be
away from your friends, and ypur living expenses would be so much that
you could afford little amusement on the side. You should finish your high
school education before you' go to work. Your mother is thinking only of
50ur own good in reprimanding you.
You are too young to know as well as
she what is best for you, and if you are sensible girls you will follow her advice. Your parents are both sacri
ficing too much for you; it is revealed by your father's constant thinking on
financial problems and your mother doing all the work without any assistance from you. You would find your home much more agreeable if you
made more of an effort yourself and
expected less of your parents. Dear Mrs! Thompson: I have a 10 year-old brother, who, 1 hate to say. is a thief. He will take money as long as he can find a chance. He has done that ever since he was five or tlx years old.
Mother has punished him in every
way she can; whipped him, kept htm tied and locked in a room. Several times she cried about it and talked to him in a nice way and begged him not to do it. It is nearly breaking her heart to see him steal money. Nothing seems to help. When he is punished he will feel sorry and promise not to do it again, but in a few days he will do the same thing She has to hide money from him liks fire from a child, but he will at other people's houses if he gels a chance. Mother and father feel so badly about it they don't know what to do.
Whipping doesn't seem to da a bit of
good and it worries tnem to deatb. They don't know just what is going to become of him when he gets older, if he wofc't break away from that. Please advise us in the beat way you can and we hope your advice will help us in this case. WORRIED SISTER. Some people are born with a tendency to steal. It is a most difficult
thing to overcome. The person may
be perfectly moral in other ways, but
can not resist the temptation to take
things. Punishment, however severe, will not help in such a case. Lay the boy's
case before your family physician. He
will no doubt recommend some repu
table . psychopathic institution where
the boy can be placed for observation.
WOMAN'S SUFFRAGE
may eventually give to women rights to which they are entitled but good health, which is the birthright of every American woman, must be hers before she can fully enjoy the privileges .which woman's suffrage will bring.
i Women who suffer from those dreadful pains, backache, headaches, irritability, nervousness and depression, symptoms of organic trouble, should rely on Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, which is made from roots and herbs, to restore them to a normal, healthy condition as it has thousands of other American women. Ad- . vertisement.
SAYS NATION'S DEBT WILL BE REDUCED BY BEGINNING OF YEAR
WASHINGTON, Sept 8. Notwithstanding a continuing deficit in government financial operations, Secretary Houston, in announcing a new offering of certificates of indebtedness Monday, declared that the beginning of the new year would see a reduction In the nation's gross bublic debt. The offering of certificates comprises two issues and will total about $400,000,000. Both issues will be dated Sept. 15, one maturng in six months and bearing 5 per cent Interest and the1 other maturing in one year and bearing 6 per cent interest The proceeds obtained from the sale of these two issues, Mr. Houston, said, will partially offset maturing certificates, aggregating about $800,000,000, which must be paid before November. The remainder of the maturing certificates will be met from funds received through the payment of Income and profits taxes, due Sept 15. Since the beginning of the current fiscal year, the treasury deficit has grown to $125305,000, according to the statement This was attributed large-
Art World
Francis Brown, director of the public school art here, a former -student at the John Herron Art institute, in Indianapolis, won a first prize for a beautiful watercolor landscape exbited at the art show of the state fair In Indianapolis. Thousands of, persons are attending the art show In the large gallery that has been arranged at the fairgrounds for the display of painting and sculpture by Indiana artists. The character of the exhibit is higher this year than ever before. Mrs. M. F. Johnston, of this city,' as Judge of paintings and sculpture selected the work for display, and awarded the prizes. Instead of arranging a Jury of selection and awards as has been the previous custom, one person wa selected for each section of work, and judges that section. An excerpt from the Indianapolis Star says: "It is regretted that no work is shown by a number of our well known older artists no Steele no Bundy, ne'er a picture by Otto Stark, nor by J. Otis Adams. And neither is there a single canvas by that young landscape artist of the pro lific brush, Carl C. Graf."

" Expect Great Reduction The gross public debt amounted to $24,324,672,000 Sept. 1. This repro sented an increase of $25,350,000 since July 1, Mr. Houston said. There was a corresponding increase in the floating debt, which amounted to $2,571,201,000 Sept 1. Both of these amount, Mr. Houston confidently expected, would be reduced through the tax payments which occur before the end of the year. He explained there would be a reduction of $400,000,000 In the outstanding certificates before Oct 15, as a result of the operations incident to the sale of the issues announced last night Mr. Houston made public reports which he said showed a wide distribution of outstanding certificates and a consequent lessening of the burden on the banks which had bought pre
