We would not be without it In the house. I used to take pills and different things, but after taking a course of alrong medicine I would be left fn a constipated condition, and wouM neel then to use a laxative. But after I begun to take Black- Draught I did not have any trouble of this kind. I take a big dose it night and follow a few nights with 1 ght.er doses, and I em like a new man until I overdo or overeat, and neg lect to take care of myself until the liver gets out of fix, when I . have to go to Black-Draught again.

MARY MEREDITH’S ADVICE TO LONELY GIRLS AT HOME I am going- to ask you. my friends, to please make your let ters shorter and more to the point. Also write on one side of the page. I have so many let ters to answer, and it consumes a great deal of time to answer such lengthy ones. Just state what you want, in as few words as possible. I will give you the information desired. Sincerely yours, MARY MKREDITH. I am a happy girl coming to you for advice. I am a girl of eighteen years and going with a boy of the same age. I am engaged to marry him. I love him very dearly and he seems to think a great deal of me. Comes to see me every Sunday and never goes with any other girl, and neither do I go with other boys. My parents do not object to his coming to see me, nor do they object to my marrying him. I have a very dear father and mother, and both seem to think a great deal of me. This boy is going to ask for me when I get ready to marry, but I am not hardly ready yet. I think we will wait un til we are nineteen. Do you con sider that we should marry? I know I love him. I have been going with him two years and never had a cross word with each other. He seems to be very kind to me and he loves me very much. Will describe myself. I am eighteen years old, blue eyes, black hair, dark complexion, five feet five inches tall and weigh 106 pounds. Is my weight correct? Do you think white is the color to marry in? How should I wear my hair? HAPPY GIRLIE. Any advice I may want to give you would be superfluous as you seem tp have your af fairs well in hand. If you do decide to venture on the "high seas of matrimony,” I hope your life will be very happy. White is pretty for a fancy dress, and a coat suit is very good and practical for a jfcl of limited means. Dark material is the wisest kind to pifrchase. I can’t tell you how to wear your hair, but don’t have the “tootsie rolls” on each side of your head too extreme. Puffs over the ears are not pretty when stuck out so far. I am a lonely girl coming to you for advice. I am eighteen years old and engaged to a boy twenty. He is very dear to me and I believe he loves me.

I have brown hair, blue eyes, five feet five inches tall, and weigh 122 pounds. How long should I wear my dresses? Will patent leather pumps be stylish this sum mer ? ROB’S GIRL. Being engaged and marrying seems to be the greatest idea any girl ever had. I’ll admit it is very sweet, but somehow, when a boy is only twenty and inexperienced it seems a pit; to see him shoulder the respon sibility of a wife. That is why so many men at thirty figur ■ out “what’s the use.” All the ambition and energy has been taken out of them because the burden of making a living for two has been greater than they realized. The man should be old enough to understand what 110 is doing. And I don’t think a boy twenty does. Girls can marry at that age because their minds are more developed than the man’s. And they should marry a man at least four or five years older. However, if you desire to marry and think you will be happy, I wish you good luck. Patent leather pumps are very stylish, also pumps with bows tied across the instep also. Dear Madam: I am a girl of eight een summers coming to you for advice, for I have no one to tell me. I am going with a boy of eight een. I have been knowing this young man for about seven years. He is a nice boy. My father does not care if I talk to him. Do you think that I am too young to marry? If so advise me for I have no mother to ask. She died when I was seven years’ old. I have blue eyes and brown hair and weigh one hundred and four pounds. Please ad vise me what to do, marry or stay with my father and brother; if this is worth an answer please let me hear from you. I know this young man and he says he loves me. BLUE EYES NORA. You have been going with the young man quite a while, and you ought to know something about him. If he has waited this long for you, I dare say he can wait a while longer. If you have a good home and are con tented and reasonably happy 1 don’t see why you should be in a hurry to leave it. Remember when you marry you are taking a big chance. My advice is to wait awhile longer. I am a bachelor coming to you for advice. I am thirty-two years old; I love a girl twenty-four years old very much; I called on her years ago when she and I were young, but she treated me a little wrong and I quit calling; that has been about seven years ago; I met her several times since and she treated me very nicely, so I called on her about two weeks ago and she treated me real nicely, and when I started to leave I asked her If I could come to see her and she said she would think it over, and would not tell me anything. Should I go back or should I not? What do you think best? I thank you for any advice you might give me. I will close hoping to see this in print. J. R. Perhaps the young lady cares for you only as a friend and does not wish you for "steady com pany.” But to ease your mind, you might write her a note and ask her if she has considered the request you made in regard to calling on her. You might tell her of your admiration for her, and how much pleasure it would give you. In that way you might kindle a little real interest in her heart for yourself. DOROTHY DIX’S TALKS rhe Indifferent Sweetheart BY DOROTHY DIX i he Highest Paid Woman Writer in the World I HAVE a letter from a young woman who asks me what she shall do with an indifferent The best and simplest way to dea’ with such a one is to break off all diplomatic relations with him, and look about for a new Romeo, who puts tror« pep and ginger into his wooing. Indifference is a disease that a man is all too apt to d .-clop after marriage, anyway, and to de liberately marry a man who is al ready afflicted with a chronic case of it before marriage seems like go ing out of one’s way to coir ’ dis aster. Perhaps, however, the indifferent sweetheart may have other quali ties about him that atone for his lack of ardor, and that makes ! seem worth while to the woman to try to speed him up a little- —which sometimes can be done, and some times can’t, for the way of a man with a maid belongs to the category of mysteries that human ingenuity cannot fathom. Generally speaking, when a man treats a woman he is fond of with indifference it the woman’s fault. It is because she has made a door mat with WELCOME on it of her self, and there is nothing in a door mat to raise a thrill in a man’s breast, or pique his interest. It is a part of the eternal dif ference betwen the sexes that a man wants to always be chasing the woman he loves, while the woman always wants to stand still and be caught. Men value most highly the thing that they haven’t got. Women gloat over the thing they possess. A man wants another man’s job, another man’s house, and de spises his own. The mere fact that a job, or a house is her own glori fies it to a woman. This temperamental difference be tween man and woman is especial ly marked in the way in which they regard each other. The mere fact that a woman is beyond his reach, that she does not love him and flouts him, is her greyest attrac tion to a man, and makes him de te...lined to win her. is no uncommon thing ‘or a man to marry a woman who tells him frankly that she does not love him, and is marrying him merelv for a support, whereas a man rare ly marries the women who has dumbly worshiped him and prayed God for ten years to send him to her for a husband, and whom h-» knows he could marry any minute he says the word. On the other hand, patient devo tion nearly always captures a wom an’s heart, and if her husband only loves her enough it camouflages every other fault and defect in her eyes. It is because the woman wants the man who wants her and con siders that the best bait with which she can go afishing is to dangle her heart before him, and because a man desires most the woma- who doesn’t desire him, and is most allured by soma tld-bit whose flavor he has not tasted, that woman han dle the problem of the indifferent man so badly. Os course this is no new view ot the subject. From time imme morial women have been told that no man chases a street car after he has caught it, and that if they throw themselves at men’s heads, the men will duck, but if they run away from men the men will fol low, if they have any interest in them at all. It also falls under their dally ob servation that it is the girls who are the craziest for attention from men who get the least of it, that the maidens who are anxious to marry remain old maids, that it is the slave wives who are most neglected by their husbands, and that in the great majority of cases the worse a woman treats a man the more he appears to esteem her, and the more anxious he is to please her. The French have a proverb to the effect that in love one kisses, and the other permits himself, or her self to be kissed. Nothing Is truer, and wise is the woman who assumes the role of the kissee. It is the only way in which she has any assurance of getting kisses that are flavored with romance and warm with senti ment instead of being the lukewarm flabby kisses of duty. The greatest mistake that a wom an can make in love is to let a man find out that she is on the anxious seat waiting for him to come along and throw the handkerchief to her. The knowledge that he can take her up, or put her down, as he pleases makes him leave her where she is. She has cheapened herself to him, and nobody is wild over a bargain Probably the telephone has done more than any other one thing to blight love’s young dream, and is more responsible for the increase in the, number of spinsters, because no man wants to marry the girl who calls him up at his business and hounds him over the wire about com ing to see her, and making dates with him. It gives him a trapped feeling that makes him hang on to his bach elor freedom with a death grip. The second great mistake women make in love is making a habit of themselves. The men they love can always depend on them being Sally on-the-spot. They are ready to for give everything, to overlook every thing, and consequently a man takes no pains to consider their pleasure or convenience. Why keep an appointment with Mary if it is inconvenient? Her wel come will be just as warm the next time. Why bother to send Sally flowers, or remember her birthday? She knows you are busy and don’t like to go shopping anyway, and she doesn’t say anything, but you have to be on your p’s and q’s with Maud, who will go off with somebody else if you do not show up, and with Gladys who expects the homage due a queen. My advice to the girl with an in different sweetheart is to beat him at his own game of indifference. Don’t be at home when he comes. Show him that you can have a perfectly good time when he is not about. Let him wait for you when you have ap pointments together. Let him watch for the letter that never comes. Indifference is a malady that is best treated on the homeopathic prin ciple that like cures like. (Copyright, 1920, by the Wheeler Syndicate, Inc.) The Country Home BY MRS. W. H. FELTON’ extravagance ibt dress and automobiles, With shoes anywhere from five to twenty dollars, and everything else in proportion, it looks like we should try to be economical as to Spending money on such things, but the stores are packed full of these expensive things and the folks buy the highest priced, with the excuse that the cheap ones don’t look good, and the high-priced should be the cheapest in the end. Granting that the high-priced should be the best, which does not always happen, we are wondering why somebody does not rise up to say: “Try to put a little of the money in a savings bank for a rainy day.” The merchants understand the people they deal with. They are in the market, to sell, not to preach economy. In the prevailing hyste ria that is affecting state and na tional affairs, where tax money is flung around like the "sower went forth to sow,” in the days of our forefathers, and the seed went flying in the air, before it fell to the ground. Our people are not looking out for the reaction that is bound to come one of these days. It has never failed to come, and history is all the time repeating itself. And the craze for automobiles Is a marvel. Our. people will buy them Colored people, without a foot of farm land—tenants—-hired hands, are crazy for an auto car. The prices does not hinder at all. They will purcha.se on instalments and buy new tires and pay for repairs, like the people did in old Noah’s time— (before the flood)—spent money and made merry, without a thought of the morrow. The people seem to be walking on stilts, with such amazing extrav agance, for things they can do with out, and do as well as they have done for a past decade, as to getting around the country. 1 Sunday is automobile day. The preachers hold forth to empty benches, and the joy-riders are put ting on high-gear and flying over the roads, just to be going fast— and nothing else. A Difficult Season for Tarniers. A good many farmers are some what discouraged because of the con tinuous rainy weather which has pre vailed during 1920 through January, February and so far In March. There are sections of country in the United States where plowing can go on right after a heavy downfall of rain, but not in the section where I live. If our farmers plow the land wet, we will get clods to deal with all the year—something like the clay in a brickyard. But I remember one year along in the early 90’s, when our folks did not run a plow furrow un til the Bth day of April. It looked pretty much like we could not make a crop because we couldn’t get the cotton seed in the ground early enough to make a crop. We had some hired hands, and we were feeding others, or supplying them from the stores, by liberal or ders to the merchants, and for which we were bound to secure the pay ment. They sat by a good fire and looked out at the falling rain. It was a happy-go-lucky time for the hired folks, but it was a time of anx iety and waiting for the landlord and owner. The ground was not any too dry, when the plows got started on the Sth of April. There was no time to break the soil and prepare for a well ordered year’s crop. We ran a mid dle furrow, slapped down the fer tilizer, and put the cotton seed in as quickly as possible. Then we plant ed some corn, and afterwards we broke up the land between the new rows, where the cotton was coming out of the ground. Providence smiles on the farmers. We had sufficient rain to keep the stuff growing, but not enough to stop work. Then we had a late fall, and nearly every boll on the cotton stalk materialized into a handful of seed cotton. The price, as I remem ber, was around eight and ten cents a pound, but we got enough money out of the crop to pay taxes and the big supply accounts at the stores. AUNT JULIA’S LETTER BOX Dear Children: Here is some more of your Honor Roll—not all, for you must have some space for letters, too; and I have been unable to get to the bank this week, so will not be able to give you an accurate statement of our balance until next week, and will save the rest of our honor roll until then. You know while it takes many nickels and dimes to make the dollars, it only takes the sending of one to express a splendid generous spirit on your part, and I am surely proud of your record in benevo lence. Yvonne’s grandmother has acknowledged the receipt of the five dollars we sent for Christmas, and as my letter asking about the clothes crossed the one in which she told us how lovely she thought they were, she again tells us of her deep appreciation and of Yvonne s affection for her little American friends.
