This dever woman has perfected a method aim*
pie and yet “marvelous” in the opinion of hundreds
of sister women, and the result has brought a won
derful change in her facial charm. “In a single
night,*' says Helen Clare, “I have sensed the work
ing of my method, and for removing wrinkles and
developing the form, reports from nearly every state
in the Union are even more pronounced than my
own—and rapid.”
In an interview Helen Clare said: “I made my
oelf the woman that lam today. I brought about
the wonderful change in my own appearance, and
there are hundreds of my friends who know how I
did it (in a secret, pleasant, quiet, yet harmless man
ner). My complexion today is as clear and fair as
that of a child. My figure, formerly alm<*t scrawny,
1 have developed into a beautiful bust and well de
veloped form. Thin, scrawny eyelashes and eyebrows,
so poor they could scarcely be seen, have become
long, thick and luxuriant; and by my own method.”
Referring to pimples, blackheads and superfluous
hair, Helen Clare continued: “I banished mine in my
own way and by my own method, using nothing but
my own simple home treatment, which any other
woman can now have the personal benefit of and do
as well as Ibave done "if”—“if”—“if”—they will
only make the effort and have even a little, teeny
bit of faith in themselves as well as in me.”
Hundreds of women are so delighted with the re
sults from Helen Clare’s methods that they write
her personally the most enthusiastic letters. Here
are extracts from just two:
"Thank you for what your Beauty Treatment has
done for me. It has cleared my face of blackheads
and pimples. My complexion is as smooth as a child's
Dow. It will do all you claim.” .
"And your treatment for removing wrinkles is
wonderful-removed every wrinkle from my face.”

tainly a blessing to women. All our readers should

OUR HOUSEHOLD!
CONDUCTED BY LIZZIE O.THOMAS
WHAT AKE YOU?
Fourth of July, like Christmas, is
■a date for all of us to put among
the real seasons that are to be ob
served. It is a gracious thing to
remember anniversaries in the home,
or among friends. It Is a Christmas
duty as well as pleasure to remem
ber the birth of the Saviour of all
who will accept His redemption, and
it is a patriotic thing to lay aside
the toil and stress of the year and
celebrate this nation’s greatest anni
versary. Sometimes when I meet
readers of this page they tell me of
things I’ve asked them to memo
rize. These gems of thought are
priceless. The Good Book says,
"Whatsover a man thinketh in his
heart, that he is,” and again it says:
“Out of the abundance of the heart
the mouth speaketh.”
Consequently, if your heart is full
of good things, the evil that may sur
round you is harmless to affect your
destiny. Nobody knows more truly
than I do how unpleasant it js to
be the object of envy, malice and
the venom of narrow minds, but pa
tience is surely rewarded, and the
day of retribution is sure to come.
God does not put any of his children
in a place where his arm and coun
sel is not sufficient for their trials.
I do not say that a man is always
a Christian because he is a patriot,
but I do say that a Christian is more
to be depended on in times of stress
than the man ivhose anchor is not
securely cast. Shakespeare makes
Cardinal Woolsey say, that he had
served his earthly sovereign better
than his God, and he deserved his
doom.
Just now our country is in a tur
moil, politics are mixed with every
thing, propaganda has become a fine
art, the very stories that one reads
while resting at noon, are artfully
colored to influence the reader for
Ireland, Germany or Socialism. The
conventions for presidential nomina
tions were mines and pitfalls, there
were barrels of money and the more
men talked the more they enmesh
ed themselves in promises or plans
for the wirepullers. And when the
whole matter is settled it will be
well for thinking men and women to
ask themselves this question: Whl
the men they want me to vote for
be the one to upho.ld our flag as the
sign and emblem of a Christian na
tion? Is greed, is commercialism, is
intelect or Jesus the Christ the un-
Showing the Efficacy of Nonsense
Makes One Happier and Others Also
One writer tells us that every
man’s life is either a dirge or a
dance or a march or triumph. We
might recast the idea by saying
that everybody is either pessimistic,
optimistic or progressive. Surely no
argument is needed to prove how the
spirit is poisoned by pessimism. Not
only does ot poison the soul, but the
mind and body as well.
The dance referred to is a system
of living falsely, called optimism. It
is a flighty, frivolous, devil-may
care creed which says: “I never
worry about anything. I’m going to
enjoy life while I live, for when I
die I’ll be a long time dead. I’m
going to eat, drink and be merry.”
The march of triumph is the most
acceptable of the three kinds of liv
ing, for it debars pessimism and in
cludes optimism plus progress and
common sense. But wouldn’t it be
advisable to halt occasionally in the
inarch of triumph and indulge in a
bit of the dance? It is mighty hard
for us to constantly keep ourselves
strung up. to tht* very highest ten
sion of discipline. Billy Sunday once
said that God must have believed in
Give the Growing Child Plenty of
Vegetables, Necessary to Health
Vegetables and fruits are now con
sidered a necessary part of the diet
of the child. The reasons are many,
but most of them may be summed
up by saying that they furnish ma
terial needed to form bone and tissue
and to regulate body processe. The
mild acids which some of them con
tain help to prevent constipation;
so, too, does the cellulose or fiber,
especially when it Is raw, though its
value for this purpose may have been
exaggerated in popular literature.
Green vegetables are also a valu
able means of Introducing into the
diet mineral matters, particularly
iron, in a form in which the body
can utilize them. Even at city prices
green vegetables have been shown to
be an economical source of iron. Leaf
vegetables, like spinach, beet greens,
kale, etc., have recently been found
to contain some of the growth-pro
moting substances that are fofind in
milk.
Combination of Food Necessary in
Order to Maintain Good Health
As the habits and conditions of
individuals differ, so, too, their
needs of nourishment differ, and
their food should be adapted to their
particular requirements. Each per
son should learn by experience what
kinds of food yield him nourishment
with the least discomfort and should
a.'oid those which do not agree with
him.
Too much food is as bad as too
little and occasions a waste of energy
and strength in the body as well as
a waste of nutritive material, say
food specialists of the United States
department of agriculture. While in
the case of some foods as purchased,
notably meats, some waste is un
avoidable, the pecuniary loss can be
diminished, both by buying those
kinds in which there is the least
waste, and by utilizing more care
fully than is ordinarily done portions
of what is usually classed as refuse.
Can’t Adopt Nurse as His Daughter;
The Doctor Will Appeal the Decision
“What,” asked Dr. Alder C. Mut
tart, of venerable mien and explosive
disposition, "what the ding dong ding
do I care what Surrogate Cohalan
said?” (The doctor didn’t say “ding
dong ding,” but this is a family
newspaper.)
Dr. Muttart, a wealthy practitioner,
applied to the court to adopt Leo
nora Rasmussen, his twenty-seven
year-old nurse and secretary. Sur
rogate Cohalan denied the petition
on the ground that he was “not sat
isfied that the moral and temporal in
terests of the person to be adopted
will be promoted.”
When the reporter called at Dr.
Muttart’s office. No. 114 West 71st
street. New York, the doctor refused
to elaborate upon his question, but
Miss Rasmussen, attractive, dark
haired and business-like, told the
visitor all about it, incidentally ex
pressing her views of an unsympa
thetic court.
“I’ve been everything in a busi
ness way to Dr. Muttart,” she began.
“I’m his bookkeeper, servant, nurse
and secretary. I’ve been with him
for more than nine years, and he
thoroughly appreciates my services.
“The only reason he wanted to
adopt me was that I should be well
taken care of in case he died. Then,
too. I often accompany him on trips,
and the adoption would avoid em
barrassment.
“Dr. Muttart < has a daughter who
he says doesn’t care for him, and he
wanted to be sure the house and
money went to me. We were going
to Canada with a party, and it would
be much more comfortable for me to
go as his daughter rather than as a
nurse."
Surrogate Cohalan pointed out that
Dr. Muttart was divorced by his wife
on the ground of misconduct, and
seen, but controlling power? Some
who haven’t brains enough to fill a
thimble pride themselves on never
being led, stubborness and contrari
ness are not signs of intelligence.
Search each law, each new measure
and see who will be benefltted by its
enactment. Remember that we can
not sav that all men have gained
their money unlawfully, nor by un
kind measures. There is too much
class prejudice. Envy and spite may
be stronger in the heart of the man
or woman of moderate means than
greed >n the heart of the richer
neighbor. Let’s turn over a new leaf
right now. We will not wait for new?
January and to the Golden Rule we
will add this American creed:
I believe in the United States of
America as the government of the
people, by the people, for the people;
a democracy in a republic: a sov
ereign nation of many sovereign
states; a perfect union, one and in
separable; established upon the J us _t
principle of freedom, justice and
humanity for which the American
patriots sacrificed their lives and
fortunes. I, therefore, believe it is
my duty to my country to love it:
to support its constitution, to obey
its laws, to respect its flag and to
defend it against all enemies.”
It has not been many years since
the Balkan states united and swept
an invader from their midst. They
then went home and tore each other
all to pieces because greed got upper
most. These United States covered
themselves with glory, and our sol
diers were the heroes of a world that
they helped rescue from the Huns.
Is it possible that they are going
to let a lot of demagogues wrest
their laurels from them, and are they
going to let the enemies of our pres
ident blind them to the ruin they
seek to work on his splendid achive
ments., Are we going to enact
the petty role of those Balkan states?
It is a wise man who knows a good
leader and sticks to him. And there
is some excellent advice against
changing horses in the midst of a
torrent.
"If drunk with sight of power we
loose
Wild tongues that have not thee
in awe,
Such boasting as the Gentiles use
Or lesser breeds without the law;
Lord God of hosts, be with us yet,
Lest we forget, lest we forget.”
a little fun or else he wouldn’t have
made monkeys and parrots. There
are scores of people whose entire
makeup seems ideal except for the
lack of a dash of nonsense.
The fact is that often the non
sensical way of expressing an idea
is often the most effective. For in
stance, the apparently absurd phrase,
“nothing to do but nothing,” is more
forceful than a lengthy discourse on
the injurious effects of iddleness or
the value of constant employment.
Once a negro put a profound psy
chological truth into comical phrase
ology when somebody tauntingly re
marked that he was afraid to do a
certain thing. His reply was, “I’s not
afeard I’s afeard I’s gwlne to be
afeard.”
If many a fond mother who loves
her wayward boy, who wants him
to become a good, noble man, who
has prayed for him, and Who is fast
growing old from anxiety—if this
mother but knew the power of a
little nonsense she might be happier
herself and the boy might more near
ly approach her ideal. Nonsense is
just as sensible as worry is non
sensical.
The uses of fruits in the diet are
much the same as those of green veg
etables, though, unlike most vege
tables, they have a considerable per
centage of sugar, especially when
they are dried and sugar is a quick
absorbed fuel food. Like vege
tables, they have value because they
contribute some of the nitrogen re
quired for tissue building and repair,
and some energy, food specialists of
the United States department of agri
culture say. However, they are val
uable chiefly because they supply
growth-stimulating and body-regulat
ing substances and\also mineral mat
ter needed for bone and for many
other purposes. • The quantity of
these materials in fruits and vege
tables is small, it is true, but large
in comparison with the amount in
many other common foods.
Much of the waste may be avoided
by careful planning so as to pro
vide a comfortable and appetizing
meal,in sufficient amount, but with
out excess.
If strict economy is necessary,
the dearer cuts of meat and the more
expensive fruits and vegetables
should be avoided. With reasonable
care in cooking and serving, a pleas
ing and varied diet can be furnished
at moderate cost. It should not be
forgotten that the real cheapness or
dearness of a food material depends
not only on its market price, but
also on the cost of its digestible
ntttrients. It should always be re
membered that “the ideal diet is that
commbination of foods which, while
imposing the least burden on the
body, supplies it with exactly suffi
cient material to meet its wants,”
and that any disregard of such a
standard must inevitably prevent the
best developqment of our powers.
said consequently the application was
“ill advised.”
“You can’t tell Surrogate Cohalan
a thing,” said Miss Rasmussen. “He
thinks that our relations are improp
er. As a matter of fact, I have lived
here nine years, and the doctor’s sis
ter and my brother have lived here
too. Surrogate Cohalan needn’t fear
anything like that.”
The doctor will appeal the decision.
Dawn in a Garden
(From Reedy’s Mirror)
The border of my garden shows
Glorious with lilies tall and white,
And that dark beauty of a rose,
Red—with a hint of night.
And as I watch their buds unclose
Touched by the magic of the light,
Lo! suddenly my garden grows
To far horizons out of sight;
Tumults invade its still repose.
Here, side by side, sworn comrades
fight
Who fought of old as foes.
French fleur-de-lys and English Rose,
Those ancient banners sway and
gleam;
The Maid of France before them goes,
Mailed knights and bowmen pass be
tween.
This morning from my garden close
Dead armies marching have I seen.
HERBERT HARPER.
Midsummer, 1917.
San Francisco know-it-all dopes it
out that coffee keeps people awake
evenings. From this point he argues
that being kept awake folks must
have something to do. They go to
dances and play cards. “More homes

playing than anything else,” this
wise guy exclaims.

Health Advice,
By Uncle Sam, M. D.
Summer Is Hear
Before very long, if this summer
is to be at all severe, cases of sun
stroke and heat-exhaustion may be
expected. Because of the fact that
a physician is not always available,
it is well to know what to do in’the
nature of first aid.
There is always danger of mis
taking sunstroke for heat-exhaus
tion, the skin is very hot and dry,
and there is usually a temperature
of over 103 degrees Farenhelt. in
heat-exhaustion the skin is moist
and clammy. the temperature is
lower and may even be subnormal,
and the patient may not be uncon
scious.
Sunstroke
Sunstroke is very dangerous, and
every effort should be made to get
a physician, but first aid should not
be Remove the patient
to a cool place, and, in the mean
time, try to reduce the temperature
by cold baths, even playing a hose
on the sufferer.' Apply ice or cold
compresses to the head and chest.
If it is possible, place the patient
in a bathtub of cold water. If this
is done, the body should be rubbed
vigorously during the treatment to
prevent shock. When consciousness
is restored, let the patient drink
freely of cold water. Discontinue
the cold applications to the body un
less the temperature begins to rise
again.
Heat-Sxhaustion
In heat-exhaustion, stimulants,
rather than cold applications, are
needed. Administer aromatic spirits
of ammonia, coffee, tea or whisky
well diluted. The object here is to
restore the enfeebled circulation.
Sunstrokes and heat-exhaustion
usually cbme when the fatigued
person is exposed to the sun on hot
days, although heat-exhaustion is
common indoors, under almost any
circumstances where one mav be
come overheated.
Avoid the direct rays of the sum
mer sun as much as possible during
the heat of the day. Seek the shady
side of the street and wear a hat
that will protect the head from the
sun. Persons feeling themselves be
coming overheated may often avoid
heat prostration, or sunstroke, if
they will immediately find a cool
place and lie down.
House Cleaning
Many of the common time-honored
methods of house cleaning are
wrong in principle and faulty i< prac
tice. Dry sweeping and dusting are
often worse than useless. Scrubbing
with soap and water, wiping with
damp cloths, and thorough pro
longed airing are of decided value.
Vacuum cleaners are very useful, but
their use is riot within reach of
everybody.
In dusting, a damp rag should be
used, subsequently washing the rag
out in warm soap suds. Some sur
faces such as walls, furniture, metal
beds, doors and other woodwork may
advantageously be wiped off with a
rag moistened with turpentine, kero
sene or parafine oil.
Nothing can approach sunlight,
combined with airing, for a simple,
efficacious disinfectant. It is, there
fore, a good plan to place clothing,
blankets, rugs, draperies and similar
goods in the open air in the sunlight,
beating and brushing out the dust
before returning them to their place
in the house.
A can of paint for use in the kitchen
and other places where the wood
work and walls are much subject to
wear, and perhaps a coat of white
wash in the cellar, will go a long
ways to give the finishing touches
to the house cleaning. ’ Clean up and
paint up is a very useful slogan.
Such Is Life
Motion pictures are a principal
cause for divorce, the Southern Bap
tist convention was told in the re
port on marriage and divorce sub;
mitted by the committee on temper-,
ance and social service.
Not many years ago they laid the
bame for martial unrest upon the
corner saloon.
Now the saloon’s gone.
Will there be an Anti-Movie
League?
Or will folks get around to the
sensible thing of blaming the hus
bands and wives themselves for the
divorce evil?
A Boston joy-killer believes the
circus is responsible for so many
boys running away from home.
“They see the • free and easy life
of circus workers,” he warned, “and
picture the pleasures of circus life.
That lures them from homes and in-,
to bad company.”
All right, all right, start an Anti-
Circus League!
Evanston (Hl.) club women In
sist the silk stocking is the cause of
many working girls’ downfall.

Anti-Silk Hose league!
SABBATH SCHOOL
LESSON
<
For July 11
BY DB. MARION M’H. HULL
How many friends have you? “I have
lots of friends,” you say. But wait —are
they friends, or just acquaintances? N’ow,
make out a list of them; after you have fin
ished studying this lesson, go over that list
again and cross out the names of any who
does not measure up to the standard of a
friend, and then see how many friends you
have.
Faith in His Friend
Jonathan was a real friend of David’s.
When they first met, after the death of
Goliath, his soul was knit to David’s soul
as though they were one. They had much
in common. Both had done daring exploits
and been deliverers of their people from the
oppression of the Philistines. Both had
accomplished these victories by faith in the
God of Israel, the covenant-keeping God.
Both were young men, although Jonathan
was probably fifty years the elder. Both
had a keen appreciation of the presence and
power of God, and of His purposes for their
people. This latter always knits sfouls to
gether. They may have little else in com
mon, but if they’ have this sense of God,
they have a strong bond in common.
Jonathan had not only been a friend of
David’s while the victory over Goliath was
fresh in their minds, but his friendship con
tinued —otherwise it would not have been
friendship. During the succeeding months
and. years Saul had become jealous of
David, and had made ten attempts on his
life. (Make a list of them as recorded in
the 18th and 19th chapters.) At least one
of these times did Jonathan save David s
life by reasoning with his father. But after
repeated attempts David became discouraged
and fled to Naioth, where Samuel was.
Even here he was not secure, for Saul con
tinued to hound him until David fled from
Samuel to his friend Jonathan.
Can we appreciate David s position? Al
though he was the idol of his people, he
was homeless; although he had physical
strength nnd beauty, and had been univer
sally successful in his military exploits, he
was in Saul’s territory, and an eastern king
was a despot; the life of any one of his
subjects depended entirely upon his whim.
Although he had been anointed to be king
over Israel, he had no kingdom, and even
the bed upon which he slept might be taken
from him tomorrow. .
David was like a millionaire In n desert,
he was practically alone. He became dis
courased, despondent: his faith was under
eclipse; he was afraid, powerless, ready to
flee. How many friends did HE have
Jonathan showed himself a; friend in
need and a friend indeed. David had faith
in his friend. He believed in Jonathan, so
he came to him and unburdened his heart
to him, telling him -of the persecution of
his father and asking what he bad done,
what sin he had committed that made nis
father seek .his life. Jonathan tried to
boost him up—he was his father’s confidant;
he told him everything he was going to do:
be must be mistaken his father s
purposes, for he knew nothing of this. Thus
ho tried to comfort and reassure David: but
it didn't work. David thought Saul had no*
told Jonathan of this because he knew of
his love for him and did not want to grieve
him. He was sure there was only a step
between him and death (but he djdn t real
ize then that God was that step).
. Not only did David have faith in Jonathan,
hut Jonathan had faith in David, so he
said. “S'ay what is in thy mind, and I will
do it.” To promise to do anything one
asks you before you have any intimation as
to what it is requires a great deal of faith
in your friend; but if you are a friend you
have that much faith in yc.nr friend.
A Faithful Friend
Now David put a rather questionable de
mand upon his friend. Some think he asked
him to tell a fie for him. His purpose was
this—we will find out really how your father
feels toward me by seeing how he acts un
der these circumstaiwes. I ough to be at the
feast of the new moon. If he notices my
absence sav my brother demanded that I
come to the annual family reunion at Beth
lehem. If your father takes It kindly, fl
right; if he doesn’t, then we’ll know he In
tends to kill me.
Now we are not apologists for David —
he did many wrong things. He lied to
Abimelech the priest of God in the holy
place at Nob; he acted a lie in Achish,
and his act here may have been the same.
However, Bethlehem, was less than ten
miles away; there were family reunions;
and it may have been the truth. t
go to Bethlehem, however, but hid himself
in the field near a selected rock. At any
rate Jonathan was willing to do as he asked,
and faithfully carried out his promise They
withdrew by Jonathan’s suggestion to a se
cluded place, where Jonathan entered into
a solemn league and covenant With him,
sworn to before God, in which he agreed to
tell him the whole truth- about the mntter
or ask ask the curses of God on himself.
And they arranged a sign by means of
which Jonathan could give David the desired
information. There was another part of the
rovenant, but of this we shall think later.
Jonathan was faithful to his friend, even
though it cost him his father’s displeasure
and nearly cost him his life. The first day
of the feast David’s seat was empty, but
nothing was said, for Saul thought he might
be ceremonially unclean; but when the sec
ond day came and he was still away Saul
enquired for him, for he knew that his un
cleanness could have been removed by that
time. Jonathan told of his request to go
to Bethlehem. This threw Saul into a rage,
lie lost his temper so that he cursed Jona
than’s mother, his own wife, and then tried
to kill Jonathan, his own son and confidant.
Jonathan left the table in great anger him
self because his father had insulted his
mother and his friend.
Jonathan’s friendship was costly, but he
tvas willing to pay the price, for he loved
David as his own soul; and love never counts
the cost. m , x .
A Friend Because of His Faith
The lad played an unconscious but .very
important part in saving David’s life. When
Jonathan sent him back to the city, he and
David met. David bowed himself before
Jonathan three times, showing his deep grat
itude for the friendly help he had received,
and then they fell on each other’s neck
and wept, but Saul exceeded. They parted,
and never saw each other but once after
wards; when David was almost captured by
Saul in the wilderness of Ziph, Jonathan
came to him and strengthened his hand in
God,” and assured him that his father could
not capture him, for God had chosen him to
be king and there was no way under heaven
for Saul to prevent it. And just here we
find the very essence of Jonathan’s friend
ship—it was his faith in God. When he
made the covenant with David about, which
we spoke, he showed that faith; for note
that when he, the crown prince, was begging
David, a fugitive and a despairing man, to
spare his life and the life of his children
when God shall have raised him to the
throne. Could there have been a'more re
markable scene? It showed, not only his
marvelous faith in ,God (when David was
eclipsed) but a spirit of resignation to the
will of God that is rarely seen.
So, here is my message to you today:
To be a friend requires that you have
faith in your friends; even though all oth
ers have lost faith in them, even though
they have lost faitn in themselves.
It requires that you be faithful to your
friends’ interest, regardless of the cost to
you. You will not count the cost, for love
never counts the cost.
It requires that you have faith in God. for
only as you have faith can you lift them
up to a higher level; and Unless von
strengthen their hands in God your friend
ship will not amount to anything.
How many friends have you, judged by
these tests? Go over your list that you
made and strike off those who cannot meas
ure up that you may appreciate those who
do the more
On that list there is one name tha»
should be put at the top—it is Jesus! For
He believes in you; He loves you and
has shown it in the costliest way. He
can and will lift you up to a place along
side Him at the Father’s throne.
In his “In Memorlam,” Tennyson said:
"He was rich where I was poor.
And he supplied my want the more,
As his unlikeness fitted mine.”
This is supremely true of my Best Friend.
Jesus! Oh! that .you knew Him, too.
Aye, Graduate
Aye, graduate, the graybeards oft
Have wagged their chin? at you and
scoffed
And judged you all unfairly.
Because your brow is unabashed.
Because your dreams are all un
dashed,
Because you face the world so deb
onairly.
But now, by every troth and truth!
We fix our faith on you and youth.
We stake the world upon your
soul.
For who but you shall heal it
whole?
If your fresh faith in life be halted,
There is no savor to be salted.
We who have ruled the world so
well
It trembles on the slopes of hell
And knows no god but Mammon.
We who have danced the dance of
death
And choked a generation’s breath.
We who have sowed the furrowed
fields with famine,
As you come singing up the slope
With laughter on the lips of hope.
What can we do but, standing
mute,
Dab at our eyes and give salute?
God save us, who have breathed
derision
Upon your brave-browed, fresh-soul
ed vision!

MARY MEREDITH’S ADVICE
TO LONELY GIRLS AT HOME
Will you please give us a little ad
vice through The Journal? We are
two sisters between fifteen and eigh
teen and would like to work for our
selves during the summer, but our
parents object. What can we do and
would be . all right to work from
home?
The eighteen-year-old wants a lit
tle advice. I have been going with
a boy age twenty-eight years old and
he has asked me to marry him and
says he loves me dearly. But I dp
not care anything for him, but there
is another boy, age nineteen, that I
love very much. Would you marry
the one 28 if you did not care for
him if you were me? I am sure I
would never be happy with him.
Is it any harm to write to a boy
you have never seen? I am writing
to a boy in Georgia and he writes
interesting letters. We have been
writing to each other for about six
months.
Is it nice for girls to go alone ac
companied by their boy friends to
church or a party at night? Even
when the boy friend is very nice to
her, and when they return at an early
hour should she ask him to stay a
while? If so, should they sit on the
porch or in the parlor?
Please let us hear from you at
once through The Journal, hanking
you ever so much.
TWO LITTLE SISTERS.
If your parents object to your
going out to work, and do not
wish you to leave home, I think
you and your sister should follow
their advice. If you have a good
home and comforts, you are bet
ter off there than you would be
away fro mit. Everything is so
high these days you couldn’t get
a comfortable room or board,
without it costing you a great
deal of money. My advioe to you
is this, stay at home anyhow un
til conditions are a little more
adjusted and living expenses are
not so great, you are better off
there by far than you would be
somewhere else. If you do needle
work you might help yourselves
by doing some of that. Find out
exactly what you would like to
do an go to it then you will be
successful. You could get an
agency for selling magazines in
the vicinity in which you live.
Eighteen, you wouldn’t marry
a man just because he asked you
to mary him, knowing in your
heart that you care nothing for
him. That would be entirely
don’t do it. And the nine
teen-year-old boy is too young to
marry. Wait until he is older.
You have plenty of time to think
about marrying anyhow and if
you wait several years longer it
will not hurt you any. There is
• no set rule where you must en
tertain your beau. In the sum
mer time it seems to me the
porch would be cooler. It de
pends on what kind of letters you
write to the boy whom you have
never seen.
Please print this in the Trl-Week
ly, if you cannot, answer it toy mail
to me. I am a lonely widow of 22,
and have been married five years and
I love my husband dearly, and al
ways tried in every way to please
him. Was good and kind and al
ways filled his wishes in every way.
A year ago he left me and has al
ready sued for his divorce, and now
his sweetheart and he are going ev
ery where. I love him now, after
what he has done and is free, but
he won’t speak to me. Will it be
wrong for me to go around. I have
been in hospital for six months and
npt able to be up now. I had a very
nice friend to come and bring me
books and one is a widower and the
other is a, young man 23 years old. Is
it wrog for me to let them come
to see me? I can’t love them as I
loved my first husband, and thev
know I would in the years to come?
Would it be wrong for me to marry
one, and suggest tne one a widower,
whose wife has been dead six years
or a young man around 25. I have
blue eyes, light hair and fair com
plexion. Thanking you for your ad
vice. As ever, signed,
SUNSHINE.
Personally I do not think it
right for a woman to accept the
attentions from other men until
after she is legally free, and if I
were in your place I would wait
until the divorce is granted be
fore receiving' any attentions .
from other men. I am sorry for
you. It is too had that you and
your husband couldn’th ave made
it up. As for marrying again,
I do not think I am in a position
to dictate to you. That is a prob
lem you will have to work out
for yourself. I do not see how
your husband could possibly get
a divorce unless he has very
good grounds,. The less attention
you draw to yourself, the bet
ter off you will be. •
Here comes a boy who is in trou
ble. I arh loving a nice little girl
but it seems that she doesn’t care
anything for me. What must Ido to
gain her friendship? What must 1
do to make her folks like me? She
has two brothers and four sister.
One of the boys likes me just fine it
seems. The other one doesn’t act as
friendly toward me. I think the
girl is the nicest I have ever met.
She is really good-looking. How oft
en should I go to see her and how
late should I stay? Is it proper to
take her to prayer meeting. Should I
ask her to kiss me good night.
Should I go with any other girl
when I care for only her. Thanking
you for advice,
RUL JOHNSON.
Ru! Johnson:
Liking and disliking is rather
hard to explain. In our daily life
we meet many people, many we
pass by without a second
thought or perhaps none at all.
Then out of the multitude there
comes one, perhaps it is a smile,'
a flicker of the eyelid or a ges
ture, or a sound of the voice
draws us to them, but it does
nevertheless, the power of at
traction, just like a needle is at
tracted to the magnet. You are
unfortunate to like a girl who
cares nothing for you. Unless
your love has any stimulant it
will soon die, and you are young
and I am sure you will see other
girls as you journey through life
whom you will love or think yon
do. So do not worry so much
over this love affair. I cannot
tell you exactly what or how to
do to gain the young lady’s love,
be as nice to her as you pan and
polite, may'be you will arouse a
spark of kindliess toward you,
who knows?
We are two girls coming to you
for advice. I am twenty-five years
old, am going with a boy nineteen.
I love him very much, and think he
loves me. Am I too old for him?
We have always been good friends.
Please tell me if It will be alright to i
marry him. BROWN EYES.
I am nineteen years old, am going
with a boy twenty-two years old. ;
Met him while in college. I love !
him very much and think he loves i
me. Now how can I find out wheth- |
er he really does or not? Please :
tell me if it is a sign a boy loves you
when he is jealous, especially of ;
married men. My boy friend is very i
jealous, doesn't want ipe to go with ;
any one except him. He calls to ;
see me twice a week. Thanking you
for advice. BLUE EYES.
Blue Eyes:
Your gentleman friend may
not be as jealous as you think,
perhaps it disgusts him to know
that a married man has any at
traction for you. And I cannot
blame him either. A married
woman belongs to another, and
so does a married man, and it is
absolutely wrong for young
girls to accept advances br to
encourage any from a married
man. She will only cause a
great deal of trouble for herself
and for others. I think your
sweetheart does care for you,
and you should treat him fair,
and be on the square with him.
Brown Eyes:
You are too old to listen to the
declaration of love from a boy
o 'nineteen, you may think you
love him. and perhaps you do,
hut I think the difference in your
ages is too pronounced to en
courage him. A girl should mar
ry a man at least a year older
than she is.
I have been reading your column in
The Atlanta Tri-Weekly Journal, and
it has been a great help to me. Now,
there’s something I want to get
your advice on, but first I will de

old and have a reddish auburn-brown
hair and light blue eyes and fair,
rosy complexion. Am 5 feet 4 inches.
Now, the question is, (at least one
of them is), that I can’t seem to
make friends. Although no one seems
to dislike me. I want nothing in
the world so much as some sweet
girl’s friendship that I know. There
are four girls whom I love dearly,
but I have accidentally overheard
one of them say that I was cold or
haughty. And I am sure I do not
mean to be. I just can’t seem to
get in with the crowd. And though
I don’t know what it is, I don’t think
it is self-consciousness. The old
saying is, “you must be a friend if
you would have a friend.” I ev
erything I can to be a friend, but
still I can not make friends. My
heart hungesr for that sweet, confid
ing girlish friendship, and if you can
give me the secret to get it I will
thank you from the bottom of my
heart, because I am lonely and al
most miserable without. And will
you please tell me how to write an
interesting letter? f
Well, as my letter is getting rather
lengthy, 1 will close, waiting and
hoping for any good news you might
send me, as that is what it will be.
Sincerely yours,
BRIGHT EYES.
In order to make friends easily,'
first you must be sweet-temper
ed; that is essential. Learn to
control the impulse to say un
kind things about any one. If
you wish these girls to love you
make it a point to see them oft
en; you will have to go out of
your way a bit to show them that
you da like them. Make yourself
agreeable when iwith them, for
get yourself entirely in every
way. When you are talking to
them let them see you are really
interested in their affairs with
out being “noisy,” And never
carry a secret from one girl to
the other. All of this seems hard,
but take it by degrees and little
by little it will become easier.
This is “character building.” I
am sorry to say that so many
girls and women are prone to
cattiness. That litle demon
“jealousy” causes the female sex
to say and do many things they
wouldn’t do if they would but
stop and think. Charm of man
ner is so easy to acquire, if wom
en would stop gossiping long
enough about each other to learn
a few things about themselves.
And gossip is a disease if fed at
all soon eats up its victim. And
gossip has as its foundation
“jealousy.” Somehow, red-haired
women have been for a long, long
time an object of jealousy—that
is if they happen to be the least
bit good-looking and have charm.
In order tCbe attractive to both
sexes be as fair to one as you
are to the other, and be as sin
cere with women as you are with
men. You can do it If you will
try. And try it for awhile, and
see if you will hot have good
results.
The Housewife’s
Scrapbook
If you are tired of serving vegeta
bles in the usual way why not try
a vegetable loaf? This can be made
of left-over spinach, chard beet-tops,
asparagus or string beans. The can
ned variety of these vegetables may
also be used. Hake a thick white
sauce by melting the fat and mixing
flour, then adding the milk and salt
and stirring briskly over fire until
it thickens. Mix this with boiled rice
and add the chopped vegetables and
red pepper. Form into a loaf and
bake twenty or thirty minutes. If
you use a can of vegetables it will
require four cups of boiled rice and
one red pepper. For the sauce use
four tablespoonfuls of fat, four ta
blespoonfuls of flour and two cups
of milk.
An appetizing as well as nutritious
sandwich filling is made of one cup
grated cheese, half a cup nuts, finely
chopped, and a mayonnaise dressing
or just sufficient cream to moisten
the mixture.
You can serve whole boiled onions.
Just prick each onion twice with a
toothpick and they will not fall apart
1 in cooking. -
Fruit stains can be removed froyn
linen with glycerine. Rub it over the
stained surface and leave it for about
an hour. Then wash the spot in
warm soapy water. Repeat the proc
ess if necessary.
If you are troubled with black ants
sprinkle bicarbonate of soda around
the places infested. Ground cloves
will do the trick for the tiny red ants.
Narrow strips of clean white goods
should be among the supplies in
every kitchen. Bind some of it
around the first finger and thumb
when paring fruits and vegetables
and you will avoid the annoying fea
ture of stubborn stains on the fin
gers. ■
To clean the finger marks from
mahogany furniture add a few drops
of vinegar to a auart of
water. Dip a soft cloth into this,
until the marks disappear. Dry with
another soft cloth.

No Gilded Cage for These
Girls, They Like Liberty
BEDFORD, N. Y.—Failing to ap
preciate the new honor systeni with
its added attractions, Mary Peters
and Elizabeth Ryan, prisoners, fled
the State Reformatory for Women
at Bedford Hills, but were recaptured
in Katonah after battling with a
night watchman there.
Both young women are about
twenty-two years old. Miss Ryan
figured in rioting and other trouble
when Miss Helen A. Cobb, former
superintendent, was in charge of the
reformatory and was then described
as one of the worst trouble-makers
in the institution.
The fugitives made their way
through the rain and mud to Kato
nah. There they met Michael Towey,
a night watchman, who arrested
them, but, it is alleged, they struck
him and escaped. They encountered
several young men, who turned them
over to reformatory guards.
Since Miss Jones installed the
honor system eight prisoners have
escaped.
Waste of Woman Power
WASHINGTON. —The moderniza
tion of farm homes and the general
use of labor-saving devices as a
means to prevent wastage of woman
poiyer are urged in a report made
public by the department of agricul
ture, agents of which recently con
ducted a survey of farm homes.
Such a waste of woman power, the
report asserts, “is one of the great
est menaces to the rural life of the
nation.” A reasonable amount of
planning and well-directed invest
ment in modern farm home equip
ment, it continues, would prevent a
large part of the present wastage
of energy on the part of the nation’s
rural home-makers.
“The greatest factor in bringing
this about will be the healthy, alert
and expert home-maker who will see
to it that part of the increased in
come from the farm goes into im
provement of the home,” the report
says.

Who only knew the drab environ

And cobbles of a sordid city street.
On home and happiness his fancy

The love of kin, the hand-clasp of
„ a friend—
Who in an attic lived, with but his
dog
To bark in welcome at the drear
day’s end.
And yet—such lonely hearts who
warm themselves
By the faint fire of their imagin

Have this one recompense—they nev

How often love and happiness take
