Do you think it would be advisable to go against my father's wishes and marry this young man? SEVENTEEN. I. D, am engaged to a young man of 21, and expect to marry him in a short while. I love him very much, and once he seemed to care all the world for me. About three months ago we fell out over something that was told him by one of his friends, and since then he has never been the same to me. But still he pays he loves me, and I have proved In every way that what his friend told him wasn't true. He still wishes to marry me. Do you think he still loves me? Would you advise me to marry him? SIXTEEN. SEVENTEEN: Not only would it be inadvisable, but it would be exceedingly unwise to go against tne wishes of your father. He loves you, my dear, and is kind and indulgent, and the be-st thing you can do Is to cenfido in him and tell him Just what you have told me. Finish your schooling by all means, and when tint is done perhaps your father will give his consent to your becoming engaged to the young man. SIXTEEN: If he didn't care for you it isn't likely he would wish to marry you. You are very young to think about marriege. and I wouldn't advise any girl your age to assume such responsibilities. Have you talked with your parents about it? If not. do so at once, and be advised bv their loving wisdom. At Wheelock's Canning Supplies with glass tops. 1-2 pints doz. for 25c. (5 I qt.

UNCLE WIGGILY

The Story of the Bench :o: By HOWARD R. GAR1S

iiittüiiiiitiHHiiniHiiiiiiniiiiiinniiiitiHMniiiiHiiiiii.llllhMl

(By Howard R. Garts.) "Uncle Wig-pilyl Oh, Uncle WlgrPi'.y!" called Nurse Jano one day, aa she saw the "bunny rabbit pentleman hopping away for tho hollcrw stump bunga'.ow. "Yerf! What Is it?" asked Mr. Ljnears. "I'Ieaso top and tell Grandpa Whackum, the beaver gentleman, to come over." went on JVtisa Fuzzy rWuzy. "I have a bit of carpenter work I'd like to have him do for me!" "What is it?" asked Uncle WigPily. "Of courfe I'D stop and tell Grandpa Whackum if you say so, but why can't I do that bit of carpenter work as well as a beaver could?" "I don't believe you could," spoke Nurse Jane. "You see I want a bench to set my washtubs on. The old bench Is broken, and, a you and I know, benvera are the best carpenters among tho animals of our woods." "Yes, Grandpa Whackaun and the other beavers are pood carpentera admitted Uncle Wlggily, eort of poV ishing hda tail silk, hat on his pink nose. "But I can make a bench for you as good as Grandpa Whackum." "Do you really think bo?" asked Nurse Jane, doubtful like. "Of course I can!" laughed Uncle Wigglly, taking off his ooat and hat and hanging them on the gate post. "Just let mo pet some boards, a hammer, saw and some nails, and I'll make you such a wash bench as never was!" "It must be very strong," said tho muskrat lady, "for a tub full of clothes and water is very heavy." 'The bench I make wi'.l be strong enouph for an elephant wash lady!" declared tho bunny gentleman. "You'll see:" to he went to work. He took his paw and cut some pieces of board off a tree that grew in the woods. Sometimes the saw stuck and then Uncle Wipgily had to knaw it loose with his sharp teeth. But linally he had a pile of boards. "I'll use long pieces for the top of the bench," he said, "and short pieces for the legs. You sit in the shade, Nunsc Jane, and when the bench is ready you can set your tubs on and start washing." "Very well," spoke the muskrat lady. But to herself she added: "I still think it would have been better to have had Grandpa Whackum." Well, finally. Uncle WIpgily began to rail together the different parts 1 of the bench. Only he didn't have ; enouph nails and he didn't want to stop to hop to the seven and eight cent store to pet more, j "I'll use thorns!" he said to hlm.i self. "Nur." Jane will never know. Revelations WHY MADGE DIDN'T KNVY LEILA IVVAl IIOMK-COMLNG. When I awoke Lillian was gone, and the pun was streaming into the room beneath my lowered curtains. I looked at my wrist watch in alarm. Half after eight! Lillian's train had been gone an hour. Why had I been allowed to sleep so late? I rushed through my morning; toilet as thouph I were trying to catch a train, and discende! to the dining room to find It deserted, but with a single place laid ot the end of the table. Voices in the kitchen drew me to that room and there I founi Mrs. Durkee and Edith enveloped In gingham aprons, - busily engaged in washing the breakfast dishes. "Hello. Lady!" little Mrs. Durkee said gayly. "How's your neuralgia?" For an Instant I was - startled, then I grasped the fact that Lillian must have provided this excuse for my oversleeping, and thus had given me the opportunity for a little extra rest. "All gone." I said nonchalantly. "But you should have awakem-d me. This is ton bu.y a day to hive stragglers for breakfast." "I can see myself waking you!" little Mrs. Durkee cried indignantly. "I know what neuralgia is. and Lillian said yo were awake a long time with it. Besides, I'm not goir.g to pet breakfast for you. Your grapefruit Is on the table, with th? electric toaster and coffee percolator ready to turn on. There's fresh c ffoe in the percolator, and there we eggs here you can cook in any way you rhooFe. So you see you won't hinder us a bit. This Is Liberty Had, you know." "I know you're a darling." I said, giving her a little grateful squeeze as I pnsed. "And I'll hurry so I won't delay you." "You won't delay iif," Mrs. Durkee 5a!d In matter-of-fact tone.-?. "I'll let you wash your own dishe. for just as soon as we finish her-. Ed.th is going to go over the house with a dust cloth and a floor bruh for the last touches everything is all rendy except for thar while I'm going to get all the cooking for the dinner tonight out of the way. Then we'll be free when Lillian com j back at noon with those draperies. And there won't be a thing for you to do until then, so you can Just as well po nght on over to j-our own house. What time will Jim and Katie get there?" "At in oclock." I returned. "But you needn't think I'm going to bo put off this way. Surely I can h?!p somewhere this morning." "Don't be a darned fool jurt because you know how." Her F!u Mines retorted. "Here! I'll compromise. You can finish these dishes with yours whn you've eaten your breakfast, then Edith on pet at the room right away, and I'll start getting my things together for my pudding. You won't interfere with me a bit."

HlilliiiitiHinTTi: After all, thorns were the first nails." So the bunny gentleman lock soma long, sharp thorns from the thorn apple tree and finished fastening his bench with them. Bang, hammer. Whack he went, and soon he had what looked like a pretty good thing to hold wash tubs. "Here you are. Nurse Jane!" he cried. "Show me the tubs and I'll set them on the bench for you." "Tho washtubs are In the woodrhed," said Nure Jano. "But aro you sure your bench is strong enough to hold them?" "Oh, ye-s!" laughed Uncle Wigily. "I'll show you!" He sct the tubs on the bench, and stepped back to get a yood look. "See, Nurso Jane!" he cried. "My bench holds up the tubs!" 'Yes, but there is no water in them yet," said the muskrat lady. "They are very light." "I'll fill thVm with water and show you," boasted Mr. Lonpear3. Pail after pall of water he poured into the tubs. The legs of his homemade bench wobbled a biC but they still held up. "See!" he cried. "I can make a bench a3 well as Grandpa "Whackum." "Ah, yes, but the clothes are not yet in the tubs," said Nurse Jane. "I'll put them In." said Uncle W'isrgily, and he did. Tho legs of his bench wobbled a bit more, but still held up. '"See, Nurse Jane!" laughed Uncle Wisgi'.y. "Ah, yes, but no one is rubbing the clothes and pressing down on the tubs." Bald Miss Fuzzy Wuzzy. "When that happens " "It shall happen right now! I'll rub the clothes and shnw you how strong my bench i.s!" cried the bunny. Up and down he sozzbd the clothes in the wa.sh tubs. But this tine tho legs of the bench s iu iked, groaned and gave a shuddering wobble and off they broke for the thorns the bunny had used for nails were not strong enough. Down went the tubs, water, clothes and all, splashing all over Uncle Wisclly. "Oh my goodness!" cried Nurso Jane. "Where are you going, "Wiggy?" she gasped, as fhe saw him hopping away. "I'm going to get Grandpa Whackum to build a strong bench for your wash tubs!" he answered. "I ml?ht have known I couldn't! . Nurse Jane was very "kind. She never once said "I told you so." and soon Grandpa Whackum had made her a proper bench. But Uncle Wigpily was almost as queer next day, as I shall tell you in the nex story. It will be called Uncle Wigglly and the Quackie's lesson that Is if the butterfly doern't try to go swimming in the molasses Jug and forget to come to school. A Wife hom "That's more like it." I smiled. "And I know Katu- will bo glad to pet lunch for us." "Yes, I can see her delight," sniffed Her Flutliness. "with all that mess over there to clean up. And I'll tell you frankly. I couldn't l e bothered with her in my kitchen. She'd drive me wild." I flushed Involuntarily and bit my lips to keep from replying In a way equally feline. Even in the dajie when maids were available, little Mrs. Durkee would never be bothered with one, but I have long known that she cherished a petty jealousy of my success in keeping Katie so long . And she neve- loses an opportunity to disparage the girl in her mild little fashion. My reply, when I finally made it. ignored her little speech completely. "If I don't turn on that percolator," I said, starting for the dining room as If I had just thought of it, "Lillian will be back before I have breakfasted. Of course, she caught her train." "By the skin of her teeth, yes," little Mrs. Durkee replied a bit tartly. I think she was slightly disappointed In not getting a rise from me on the subject Of Katie. "For once in her life I saw her lose her deliberation, and actually run for a tram. The taxi man disappointed her. But you can't cut the corners the way she does without coming a cropper occasionally. She's going to TSids ts Are you going to have them framed?

I saw that Her Fluifiness, like, many another person who has ma io a sacrifice of some cherished project, was in the caustic mood of reaction which often follows an ;srent to id al heights. That she would be more or less disagreeable until she had worked off h r choler I was Mire. I resolved to keep out of her way as much as possible and smother any rancor her palpable crankiness might arouse in me. But as I hurried through my breakfast, and afterward finished the kitchen work with the consciousness that Mrs. Purkoe's critical eyes were upon me, I thought a trifle primly, that if the temper of Her Flufüness did not improve by nightfall T did not envy Leila her homecoming.

Thursday, September First Nineteen Hundred and Twenty-one The most notable feature, pervading the entire new Autumn mode, is perhaps the delightful wearableness of all manner of garments. The fantastic and the grotesque have vanished and in their place are charming things of true beauty which are adapted to all types of feminity. Suits, Wraps, Frocks show a distinctly new and interesting mode which appeals equally to the judgment and a sense of the beautiful.
