I want to know where I could' write to to get the song “My Little Girl You Know I Love You,” and If any reader of The Journal finis this, send men the ballad and I will send them 25c for same. Is it proper for a woman to intro duce two men when her husband Is present er should he? In intro ducing a boy and girl at my home what would be proper to say? I will try to get the ballad. “My Little Girl You Know I Love You," for you and will send it to you immediately. It is prop er for your husband to introduce the two gentleman you mention ed if he is present. It really depends upon the circumstances always. Introducing a young lady to a young man you may say this: “Mr. Jones, I want you to meet Miss Smith.” or “Miss Smith, I want you to meet my friends. Mr. Jones.” Either is good form. Cleveland. Feb., 12, 1920. Dear Miss Meredith: I ajn a lonely girl 21 years qf age. I am engaged to a boy 21 years of age. He seems to love me dearly, and I’m sure I love him. He is 5 feet, 5 inches tall and I’m 5 feet, 3 inches tall. Now do you think we would make an ideal couple? Or is he not tall enough so raid. What kind of slippers will be worn next spring and summer? Thanking you in advance, I am, ANXIOUS. The question of height seems rather insignificant beside the vi tal question “love.” If you love him and he has all the attri butes of a gentleman and loves you and will support you and make yours and his life happy, what matters it whether he is ta- 11 or short. Pointed toe slip pers are still good style. Brown and black are the shades most used. For general wear, dark brown oxfords seem to be popu lar. I am a girl of thirteen years. I have brown eyes, black hair and fair complexion, 4 feet 10 inches tall and weigh about 120 pounds. I go to school and Am in the 7th grade. I / /8 -111 A.

We are very fond of each other, but my father and mother object to me go ing with him. I have to slip off every time I go with him. Is it proper to go to parties at night with a man without any other girls along. When he proposes, which I feel sure he will do, should I ask him to wait until I am older, or am I too young to marry? I have never let a boy kiss me. Is it proper to ask a boy if he loves you? I have a girl friend who has been trying to cut me out, and he has carried her to the. movies several times. Do you think he is in love with her? Please tell me what I should do. POLLY. When I think of a girl thir teen —having grown-up men for beaus, and some of them old enough to be her father, my heart nearly stands still. At thirteen a girl should begin to learn to fix and take care of her hair, and skin, to become dainty with her person, and learn to conduct herself in a lady-like manner. But, she is still a child, and should indulge in the whole some Faroes and pleasures of other girls her age. Suppdse a boy of thirteen were to go with a woman of thirty-nine. Would not that be ridiculous? And a girl of thirteen is entirely too young to have grown-up men for beaus. It is all right to have a few boys near your own age to be friendly with. Woodruff, S.

AUNT JULIA'S LETTER BOX Dear Children: Ugh, but hasn't it been cold? I had planned to send some jonquils in the frozen north, feeling so proud that we had them early, when along comes Mr. Winter again, and all the pretty flower heads are drooping in sorrow. Please be patient, dear children, if I seem to take a long time to answer personal letters; the mail has been unusually heavy. I must tell you a story about one of my pet hens. We’ve named her Sing Song because she sings all the time. The other day a friend, who is quite tall, went with me into the chicken yard (1 have the yards covered with wire, as Leghorn chickens will fly). Both my friend and I are very tall, so there wasn’t much room between our heads and the covering wire.. We stood there dis cussing the hens and suddenly I heard a whirring noise and Sing Song had flown upon the very top of my friend’s black velvet hat. How she did it I can’t tell, for there wasn’t room for her to stand up after she lighted. Fortunately my friend likes chickens or it wouldn’t have been so funny. Lovingly, AUNT JULIA.

I am a girl age 14 years, coming to you for advice. Am I too young to have sweethearts? I am going with a boy age 16 and he says he loves me, and I am sure I love him. He sent me a Christmas present. Was it any harm for me to give him a present? He asked me to have him. Would you have him? Do you think we are too young to marry? I don’t feel like I could be happy without him. Do you think it would be any harm for him to kiss me? How long should I wear my dresses? Well, I will describe myself and go. Blue eyes, light hair, medium complexion; weigh 115 pounds, and about 5 feet and 5 inches tall. Do I weigh enough for my height? You are entirely too young to think of marrying, especially DOROTHY DIX’S TALKS The Similarity of the Sexes BY DOROTHY DIX The Highest Paid Woman Writer in the World WE TALK a great deal about the differences between the sexes, and we say that the reason that women can never under stand men, and why women are a conundrum to men that they do not even try to guess, is because the two sexes look at everything from oppo site standpoints. To a certain extent this is true. To the end of time men will be men, and women will be women, and wom en will still be speculating about why men do certain things and hold cer tain opinions, and men will be won dering at the strange way in which a -woman’s mind works its wonders to perform. But, as a matter of fact, this dif ference between the sexes is mostly a matter of tradition and supersti tion and not nearly so great as we have been led to suppose. After all, we are human beings first, and then male or female afterwards, and if we laid more stress on this com mon humanity, and less on sex pe culiarities, it would smooth out a great many of the difficulties that are sources of perpetual friction be* tween men and women, and make greatly for peace and harmony. As an illustration of this, take the matter of money which is a bone of contenton in the majority of households. If women could voice their bitterest complaint against matrimony it would be that the wife is an economic slave who is requir ed to work for her board and clothes without ever receiving a penny as the reward of her labor. Often she is given the most lav ish sums. She has jewels, and fine clothes, and automobiles bestowed upon her if her husband is rich, but the fly in the ointment is that these things are given. They are looked upon as gfatuities for which she should be properly grateful to her husband. A wife is never supposed to earn a penny by her work, no matter if she cooks, and washes and sews, and cleans, and sick nurses for her family, and performs the services of half a dozen high priced experts. Even the census rates the woman who works outside of her home as a laborer while the housewife is put down as following no gainful occu pation. The average wife never has any money that she can spend as she pleases, and without giving an ac count to her husband. If she has poor and unfortunate relatives whom O WOOL DBESS - NO WIN SSO “Diamond Dyes” Turn Fad ed, Shabby Apparel into New _ Don’t worry about perfect results.

I go to school most every day, and that keeps me pretty good company. I enjoy going to school.' How many of you all do? Well, as I am n new member of the Letter Box, I had better de scribe myself, so here goes: Light hair, blue eyes, age fourteen years. Who has my birthday—March 15? 1 weight 115 pounds and am about 5 feet 5 inches tall. I know some one got scared, but maybe they will get over it. I will close. If any of you good-looking cousins would like to correspond with a Georgia girl, let your letters flv to BATTIE WILDER. Gore. Ga., Route 1. P. B.—l will answer all mail received. Dear Aunt Julia and Cousins: Will you please admit a lonely Georgia Cracker into your charming circle? Like most of the cousins, I live in the country, and like coun try life fine. Say, why don't you soldiers and sailors write? We all enjoy reading your letters. I guess you cousins are won dering what I look like, so here 1 go: Light hair, light complexion, light blue eyes, 5 feet 1 inch tall, weight 120 pounds. Come back, Luther Huff; I have not told my age yet. I will be sweet sixteen the 22d of May. I would be very glad to receive some letters or cards on that date. I guess I had better go before Aunt Julia gets her broomstick. I will close by asking a riddle: A man without eyes saw plums on a tree; a boy of sixteen. And the best thing for you to do is to get that idea out of your head as soon as possible. It is all very well for a girl your age to have a few boy friends and enjoy yourself in a happy, wholesome way. But get those romantic ideas out of your head, and think of marriage when your are a tew years older. The man you would choose now, you would scarcely look at. then. Kissing is always harmful. It leads to intimacies and does a great deal of harm. Girls should never let boys become too fa miliar with them. Your dresses should be down to your shoe tops. Your weight is all right. $126,340 for 35 Horses LONDON, Eng.—At a sale of Shire horses, the property of Pendley Stock farms, thirty-five horses realized ?126,340. she would like to help, and to whom she. would give money if she were an unmarried working woman, she cannot do so without the humiliation of asking her husband for it and making him feel that his wife’s peo ple are grafting on him. For he seldom realizes that the wife is en titled to a part of the family in come, not because she is his wife, but because she earns it by her labor in the household. Now, women cannot understand why men cannot get their point of view on this vital subject. They cannot comprehend why a man who is just and fair about money to everyone else, cannot be just and fair to his own wife. They cannot see how a man can love a woman, and yet force her to come like a beggar to him for every cent. The explanation is that men have an idea that the two sexes do not regard money in the same light. A man knows that he would rather starve than be dependent upon even the kindest ard most generous of fathers or uncles. The reason that a marriage between a poor man and a rich woman almost always results in misery for both is that a man’s sense of dependence eats into his very soul. The very foundation stones of his self-respect and happi ness are the possession of his own individual pocketbook. But he thinks women are different, and that a woman actually enjoys rattling a tin cup before a man like a blind beggar, and wheedling, ca joling or browbeating him into giv ing her enough money to buy some specific thing which she has to de scribe beforehand. If men could only realize that there is no difference between the sexes on the money question it would do more to make marriage a success than any other one thing, for it is ignorance, not stinginess, that makes husbands dole out carfare to their wives instead of giving them an individual bank account. Another illustration of the afieged difference between the sexes shows why so many women fail to give their husbands the appreciation and tenderness that are their due. A woman knows that the love that expresses itself ir? warm words of endearment, that takes note of her sacrifices, that pays the tribute of pr'aise to her endeavors, is as the very breath of life to her. She knows that this, and this alone, makes marriage worthwhile to her. She knows that if her husband sur rounds her with this aura of appre ciation that she is repaid for all the hardships and sacrifices that matri mony inevitably brings, and if she fails ir.' appreciation that marriage is cinders, ashes and dust in her teeth. But she has been taught that men are strong and self-sufficient, and prosaic, and unsentimental, and she never realizes that her husband is just as heart hungry as she, that he longs and pines for a few words of real affection, or little praise, some sign that she knows and appreciates the sacrifices that he is making for her. There are millions of tired, dis heartened, discouraged, gloomy and grouchy men to whom marriage is an utter failure, who could be made happy, and contented, ard cheerful, and find marriage a paradise regain ed if only their wives would show them some of the tenderness and love and appreciation they really feel. “Do as you would be done by” Is the golden rule of matrimony as it is of life. For men ard women all have souls cut off of the same pat tern, and with the same needs and desires. (Copyright, 1929, by the Wheeler Syndicate, Inc.) THE COUNTRY HOME CONDUCTED BY MRS.W.H.FELTON TFZxI USE OF AMMONIA IN THE HOUSEHOLD There are very few articles in do mestic use which are as convenient and useful to the homemaker as am monia. Its cheapness, as compared with other things needed, was a great recommendation in pro-war times. In cleaning windows a table spoonful of ammonia in every two gallons of water will be better than soap, will remove all the dirt, and leave the glass clear and bright. Carpets that are wiped off with warm water with a little ammonia be neither took plums nor left plums there. How can that be? A new cousin. MISS EMMIE STRICKLAND. Waycross. Ga., Route 5. Box 59. P.

Therefore I do not feel as a stranger, but as one of the happy band of Aunt Julia’s cousins scattered all over the dear southland. 1 think that it is the rule to describe one’s self the first time one writes, so here goes: I am 16 years of age, 5 feet. 6 inches tall, weigh 145 pounds; have light brown hair, gray blue eyes and fair complexion. Now, cous ins, how do you think I look? I have lived in both town and country, but prefer city life. At present I am staying in the coun try, visiting an aunt, and having a nice time. My father is a farmer. Our princi pal crops are corn, cotton and tobacco. I like the farmyard animals and have many pets. Cousins, I am sure you like music. I do. Papa has promised to buy me a pi ano. When he does, Aunt Julia, bring some of the cousins and we will have a sing. Good-bye, cousins, if this does not find its way to the wastebasket I will come again. With best wishes, your niece and cousin, GERTRUDE CUMMINGS. Lakeview, N.

Old brass and all kinds of nickel-plated utensils can be cleaned and brightened by rubbing with a woolen cloth with ammonia dampened on the cloth. Wallpaper soiled or greased may be restored by the use of it. Deli cately handled, a few drops can be made to touch over old chromos and paintings. Its uses in the laundry are well established. A little am monia in the wash water will loosen the dirt and make the linen wash more easily. It does not damage the delicate colors in muslins and ginghams. Yellow stains from grease in sew ing machines can be removed quickly if dampened first with ammonia be fore wetting. Fruit stains can be succesfully treated in the same way. flannels and blankets soaked in ammonia water can be easily handled and come out soft and clean. Woolen dresses with spots in them are thus wonderfuly improved. , Colored table linens, so liable to fade, can be cared for very satisfac torily by ammonia treatment. Dishes washed in very hot water with a little ammonia will be bright without rubbing, and glass and sil ver can be treated • uccessfully. In the kitchen, where cooking ves sels are greasy and burnt, nothing will clean them better, If soaked a little while in ammonia water before scrubbing them. x For the toilet ammonia is excel lent. A few drops in tepid water will clean« off the skin, take from the hands stains, and soften them. It is good for washing the hair. Where perspiration causes an un pleasant odor in hot weather a little ammonia in bath water will destroy it entirely. It will take off grease and dirt from combs and brushes. Jewelry or gold and silver can be cle::>■ ?<] ■' brightened in the home. I have given you a few of the uses so which ammonia can be safely and satis factorily applied with astonishing results. Twenty years ago I saved an arti cle in which the uses of ammonia were elaborated, and It gives me great pleasure to hand it down again to the dear readers of The Tri-Week ly Journal.
