The Girl Who Had No Chance By MARION RUBINCAM

and wondered about Tim. This was the first time she had really ever been alone the first time in her life that the had not been more or less surrounded by people who knew her. Even when the had packed her mother and father off to the South, there bad been Mrs. Belding and a whole village fall of people with whom he was acquainted. Then when her house was filled with roomers, she had almost never been alone. It was a curious feeling, which she had not yet learned to like. When ehe fell asleep it was very late and so s-he overslept the boarding-house breakfast hour the next day. Later fhe wandered out, tired and feeling a little sick, to see, more of the city. It was all hers to see! She stood on the corner of the street, wondering which way she wanted to go. Here she was in New York, here was everything around her that she had dreamed of seeing and she suddenly did not want to see anything. She wanted to go back home and cry. Yet she disliked the boarding house. She went into a near-by cafe ad frot a cup of hot coffee and a roll. That made her feel quite different; the heat and stimulation cleared her brain and drove away the blues. She went back to the boarding house for her guide book and map and found in the hall a letter in Tim's writing! She tore it open trembling. It was

only a line, "Will be up to see you tonight at 8." That day she passed in feverish aimlessness. She never knew what she saw but she was dressed in her

nicest blouse and her new suit, look-1

ing her best when Tim arrived. It was a curious meeting. Ruth held out her hand, and they greeted each other formally, like acquaintances. She looked up at him silently for a moment.. His nice dark eyes were not ready to squint up into a laugh. Tim was looking serious and a great deal embarassed. ' Wouldn't you like to see a show?" l.e asked. "You've never been to a real theater." Ruth nodded, and they started out.

Somehow in the air, on the streets, it was easier to be casual. Ruth was glad of the crowds. It took her mind off herself and the strain of being with Tim. All the ordinary talk, that seems necessary when two people meet after a long absence, was over before the play. It -was a light comedy that had teen running all winter and Ruth, in spite of herself, enjoyed it and was over-awed at the splendor . of the theater and the lovely dresses of the women. She chattered easily of what she had seen and done in the city, and told him all the happenings of home, as she had told Myra. But the play was over and they were walking back, across town to the boarding house, and the evening had flown. As they went on into the darker streets, Tim grew quiet, and so did Ruth. It was coming then something she feared but did not know. It, whatever it was, came when they Ftood in the dimly-lit vestibule to say goodnight. ' I'll see you again soon," he said. "If you want to," Ruth answered in a low voice. ' But why not? Of course T do "

your engagement. I hope you'll be awfully happy." It was out at last! A feeling of - -relief went over her that at least that was over. It had to be said and now it was done with. "You're a brick to say that. Ruth, I m I'm sorry. I can't say anything, explain anything, without being rotten to Myra and if I don't explain it makes it look rather rotten to you " "Please don't explain anything." Ruth begged, sensing an emotional scene coming and trying to avoid it. "It's natural Myra should fall in love

with you. It's certamlv natural you

should fall in love with her

holding her even tighter as he felt her relaxing In his arms, her lips clinging to bis. "Ruth!- he whispered. "Ruth don't

cry. I love you, too. He hadn't meant

to say it that way yet it was true, he loved her and he loved Myra! "Oh. don't!" she cried, and with the strength of her desperation, pulled herself free; and ran into the hall and up the stairs, out of sight Monday A New Friend. '

Heart Problems J

V . Dear Mrs. Thompson: I am a girl eighteen years of age and have been going with a fellow twenty-two years of age. He thinks a lot of me and I do of him. Lately he went west and asked me to wait for him and wanted to know if I would go to him in a certain length of time. Please advise me what to do as I love him and could not give him up. BLACK EYES. It seems to me that you are too young to make promises in regard to marriage. Tell the young man that you value his friendship but cannot make promises for the future.Dear Mrs. Thompson: We are two girls of sixteen. We are in trouble. Having been chums from childhood, and falling in love with boys at the

same time, we became engaged. Our

parents are unwilling for us to go with the boys, although every one says we are an ideal match.

We finished grammar school last term and being in doubt about going on to school or getting married. Please advise us what we should do. BLUE EYES AND BABY JOE. You are far too young to marry Go to school by all means, so that when you do marry you will be intelligent wives. Dear Mrs. Thompson: Do you think it is all right for a girl fourteen, rather large for her age, to go with a boy twenty-one, and also to be in love with him? QUESTIONING. Girl of fourteen is too young to go with a young man. Love at that ago is built on dreams instead of reality and should not be encouraged. When a girl of fourteen permits herself to

dream about a lover she is wasting time and getting herself in a state of mind which makes her utterly miserable. .When your thoughts turn to love, get busy at something so that

you are active physically as well as mentally. I would advise more out of door exercise. Try to be a healthy, wholesome-minded little girl and you will be happy. Dear Mrs. Thompson: Would be glad to get Information or address of some one that does quilting. MRS. McK. We are informed that the Ladies' Society of Reid Memorial church does this kind of work. Other aid societies propably engage in this work. Ellen Ramsey, 121 South Ninth street, we are told, does this kind of work.

free to do what you wanted. "But she I didn't " Tim stumbled along. He wanted to tell how it had happened. He hadn't meant to turn from Ruth. He loved her, but he loved Myra too. Ruth was the finer of the two he had felt awful when it first happened. And he was sure he would never love anyone but Ruth he wondered whether he had hurt her when he became engaged to Myra Some of this he told her, in Fhort, broken sentences that meant little to her in that, moment of agitation, but that she understood when she thought of this evening afterward. "So I didn't write. I was a plain coward I couldn't," Tim ended. "1 !idn t think she would either, but she raid it was better for you to know. She doesn't know we were engaged, or in love."

Warning ! If you expect to buy a piano or player-piano, you should first of all determine whether or not the company you contemplate dealing with has handled for a number of years the line of pianos offered you ; otherwise, it is not competent to really recommend its line. It is true that most piano dealers are constantly changing from one make of pianos to another. This condition is brought about by different manufacturers bidding for their business, not on a basis of quality of goods, but by offering a special inducement in the way of a bigger discount. (If we were merely dealers we would no doubt be looking for the extra amount of profit rather than quality, too). When a firm markets its own product it is sure to make its goods of such a high quality that it will give absolute satisfaction to tht customers. That firm cannot put out inferior goods with the idea of making a lot of sales and then jump to another line when trouble begins to show up, with the excuse, "We no longer handle that make," but must stand back of the product of its own hands so long as it is in existence. The Starr Piano Company has been making musical instruments for over a half century and because it has always followed out the policy of maintaining a standard of high quality our customers have always been our best advertisers. We have sold only one line of musical instruments for a great many years and will continue to do so; therefore, you are assured of satisfaction when you buy from us. The Starr Piano Co.
