ADVICE TO THE LOVELORN * By Beatrice Fairfax | FIND OUT IF IT IS TRUE. Dear Mias Pa 1 rfax: 1 have been going with a young man about my. age for a year, and 1 love him very much and he loves me.

This is true, but is it wrong, or should I pay attention to such gossip ' And should I quit him because I have heard he drinks'.’ I'NDEi’IDEP. Such late hours are not commendable, but they do not constitute a crime. The important thing is: Does he drink? Bind out for yourself if he does. If you find this gossip is founded on fact, end your acquaintance without a mo ment's hesitation. No girl .can afford to think a second time of a man who drinks.

Thin, brittle, colorless and scraggy hair is mute evidence of a neglected scalp: of dandruff —that awful scurf. There is nothing so destructive to the hair as dandruff. It robs the hair of its lustre, strength and its very ■ life; eventually producing a feverish- I ness and itching of the scalp, which if not remedied causes th- hair roots to shrink, loosen and die —then the hair fa'ls out fast.

He is forty years, the other thirty, and I am twenty-three. Which should I give up? UNDECIDED. Perfect love dispels ail doubt. Your suspicion of the first man's motives should take him out of your heart and mind. Don't TRY to love him if you doubt him. Rather turn your mind to the oilier man. dandruff will disappear, all -Itching will cease ami there w ill be no more falling hair. Millions of men and women use Knowlton's Dariderine and they never have dandruff, itchy scalp or falling hair- they know that it keeps the scalp clean and healthy and makes the hair grow heavy, long and beautiful.

I see her every day. but I have never spoken to her. I explained my love in an anonymous letter and re ceived an answer of the same charac ter. Then I received a second anony mous letter, in which she invited me to come to her house. I did not go be cause I am not sure she wrote that let ter. "It seems to me she favors me, but I can not find any way to talk it over with her. May I talk to her on the street, not being introduced, or Is it better to name some place where we may meet each other?” That old saying: "All’s fair in love,” has been responsible for uncounted fol lies. All is not fair’ It is never fair in these modern times for a man to de clare his love in an anonymous letter. Neither is the girl doing right when she replies. The anonymous letter was the inven tion of a coward. One who would write one. even w-hen in love, would be tempt ed to use the same dishonorable subter fuge on less honorable occasions. No man should ever write one, and to write one to the girl he loves insults her good sense. I wonder at this girl, who not only heeded, but replied. She must have taken momentary departure of every bit of wisdom she ever possessed. L,ove affairs do not have the right basis unless that basis is an introduc tion through a mutual friend. This may sometimes be difficult to secure, and seem impossible. But the world has yet to learn of a lover who pined aw ay w ith his love untold for lack of an introduction. It is one of the many tilings that come speedily and surely' to him who watts. "Heart Broken " started wrong The girl also started wrong when she re plied. It would make matters worse if a third blunder were committed by ar ranging to meet on the streets. If a man's intentions are honorable, his feet will take him straight to a girl's door- HOW I ENLARGED MY BUST SIX INCHES IN THIRTY DAYS After I had Tried Pills, Massages, Wooden ,Oups, and Various Advertised Preparations without the slightest results, A SIMPLE. EASY METHOD WHICH ANY LADY CAN USE AT HOME AND QUICKLY OBTAIN A LARGE AND BEAUTIFUL BUST, By MARGARETTE MERLAIN. Well do I know the horrors and intense humiliation of being flat-chested; of hav ing the face of a woman set on the form of a man; and 1 can not find words to tell you how good I felt, and what a ter rible load was lifted off my mind when I first saw my bust had really grown six inches in size. 1 felt like a new being, for with no bust I realized I was really neither a man nor a woman, but just a sort of creature half way between.

Can such a woman Inspire in a man those feelings and emotions which can only be inspired by a retll and true woman, a woman with a beautiful, well-rounded bust? Most certainly not. The very men who shunned me, and even the very women who passed me carelessly by when I was so horribly flat chested and had no bust, became my most ardent admirers shortly after I obtained such a wonderful enlargement of m.v bust.

Life offers nothing good to a girl In that which is told to her on the streets and can not be told to her In her own parlor. No circumstances ever justify sueh a meeting, and the girl should know that this inviolable rule was made for her own protection. There is, in many men. the uncon trolled appetite of the wolf. The girl knows what happens to the sheep that wanders beyond the fold. Its tragic fate will not be a circumstance com pared with the tragedy that will over take her if she disregards the conven tions. And bv "conventions" I mean the safeguards that the social structure has built around young women. "Heart Broken” isn't much of a man. or he wouldn’t go about the joy of win ning a girl’s affections in such an un derhanded way. I make him this suggestion: Forget this girl. It is best, because of the bad start that both made. Then, when he loves a second time (and men have been known to do this though heart broken), let him make the acquaintance of the object of his phoenixlike affec tions in a conventional way. Let him seek an introduction. him be above anything anonymous or hidden or petty. Let him treat her as he would want his sister to be treated. And, when he has become a manly man, I am sure he will not give his affections to the sort of a girl who would reply to an anonymous letter. All is NOT fair in love and war. That which smacks of the dishonorable is never fair, and an anonymous never smacked of anything elae. No Lota.

I had been imposed upon by charlatans and frauds, who sold me all sorts of pills and appliances for enlarg Ing my bust, but which me no good whatever. I therefore determined my un fortunate sisters should no longer be robbed by those "fakirs” and frauds, and I.wish to warn all women against them. The discovery of the simple process with which I enlarged my bust six inches in thirty days was due solely to a lucky accident, which I believe was brought about by Divine Providence; and as Prov idence was so good to give me the means to obtain a beautiful bust.
