THE OEORQIAMS MAGAZINE PAGE Wanted-—More Guardian Angels By FRANCES L GARSIDE. HE girl who ha« fl Food, senslbk • mother, end who heeds that «.»otn«tr. has a guardian ang»i •ufflclent for all earthly needs But there are girls whose mothers ■re weak, inane, and lark judgment, though it he here-y to sav it. And there are also girls whose mothers are . with the real angels. For the girls who are motherless In either way. there should he more guardian angels Relatives. good friends, teachers, the policemen and ■ll the laws of the land are not suf ficient to keep such girls from de struction when they once set their feet that way They fall in love with the wrong man. All who are interested In a girl’s best interests argue, command, threaten •nd implore. All of which does no good The girl apt In the language of believes she is "constant," ■nd takes pride tn the word. There is a word not so pretty which describes her better stubborn" So stubborn Is she that with a realization of the pitfalls before her she walks right into them rather than turn about and admit she has been traveling a dangerous path Under the word "stubborn” I would class the writei of the following letter. She concedes that all the warnings her relatives giro her are based on fact, but continues on the path which will lead to het sorrow She asks advice Are not her rela tives giving It till they are black In the fae< ? Haven't they shouted themselves hoarse with their warn ings ? ”1 keep company " she wiltes.

Half the time he docs not work, and every one says he can hard ly support himself, much less a wife. I have seen him often when he had drink in him.

I don't like to live that way. lam 22. and my friend is 24 1 have a few dollars .saved, and they say he Is after my money What would you ad vise me to do?" A girl deliberately plays with fire, and turns front the blaze to ask sot advice! Do? What shah she do? Run from the fire as fast as she can! There can be no half way measures. The man isn't truthful He doesn't earn more than enough to support him self and he gets drunk. To offset all these vices, she enum erates but one virtue: He Is "kind" to her. It would be more to her Interest If she knew how to be kind to herself If she were kind to herself she would know that no man who drinks can be kind tn a girl by paying her atten tion. The only way he can be kind is to never go near her, or write. The only way left for hint to be kind to any woman Is to let that woman remain in ignorance of his existence If he can't reform In no other way can he be kind, and lie is not kind to the woman to whom he gives the task of reforming him. If he cut her to death by inches he would be more human. The advice this girl's relatives give her is the best there is. No one could give her better. She owes It to them to take it. She need not hope for anything but sorrow if she marries him, and it Is my earnest opinion that sorrow is what she wants unless she goes to her rela tives, and acknowledg.-s she has been In the wrong It may be hard to admit she has been stubborn. Rut such tin admission will be easy compared with what the fu ture has in store unless she does. ■ "I Sake / do not take Substitutes or Imitations Get theWell-Known B*W 18 R Round Package Bw Iw. 1 i J- Sggg MALTED MILK |T[Q B Fli Oft Made in the largest, best lULXm2a2IjM equipped and sanitary Malted B JI u Milk plant In the world ' We do not make milk products"— A.

'but you must expect no ease you must fend for yourself, and if you share my life you must share its work and grumble at nothing Grumble that was the last thing Betty Lumsden would have done. She rejoiced m the life, in its hardships the early rising In the dark cold of the morning, ’he rough food kissed the rod and pressed It to her breast but there was something in the grim solitude, the mask like face that covered everything of the real woman and her feelings, that was more than hard to bear “If she would only speak If she were only human,” the girl whispered to her self, as she moved about her tasks In the low-ceilinged kitchen, filled with the red glow of the peat tire that struck tiny points of dancing light from the scanty stock of dishes on the old dresser and turned the shining lids on the pots on the rack below to so many pools of flame She made up the fire and sat down, taking up some knitting, with which she strove to busx herself. She had barely seated herself when she heard the sound of knocking at the back door. It was scarcely 4 o’clock in the afternoon, but it was already almost dark. W illiam Vogel, tlie “boy" who did the rough work, bad prophesied snow for the evening. Betty supposed that the knock at the door heralded his return with the groceries, for which he had gone into the village. 1 Mrs Rimington had spoken sportively surely when she called him a boy, seeing ' he was a man of middle age. grim and taciturn, for whom Betty had conceived an instant dislike “William the Silent" • she had called him to Mrs. Rimington. j but the widow. who had not been entirely i j devoid of a playful sense of humor In the * old days of the Red House, had looked i only stony disapproval. The Signal. In this lonely spot, where every stran ger might, and ought to. be regarded ■ with suspicion, they had arranged on a signal for their messengers. William gave It now. and Betty, who had been looking towards the door with a half i frightened expectancy, went forward and ■ drew back the bolt \ groat rush of ■ blinding, stinging damp drove into the • kitchen on the breath of the wind Out- I side she saw the stretching face of the moor suddenly whitened The snow had k come at last Darkness and snow and the roar of the wmd that cut like a knife William Vogel exerted hts strength to close the i door upon it F "Main cold tha night." he said; "main cold it be Better here by t’ fire than ’ up In the stone jug. missus.

He oast a look at Betty as he spoke, k and laughed Betty hated him for that ‘ laughter It checked the Impulse that • was in her to make and give him tea Ito fortify him for his trudge through the snow to his cottage across the moor.

"Why, I thought you were aa bache lor. William'.’" she said "Oh. aye, they do say. Well, good night to ye: ye’ll be anxious to lock up." Then, with a certain sense of fear for which she ridiculed herself. Betty asked him tn wait while she poured water on the tea Perhaps she had made an enemy of this man. here in this place where they so blandly needed friends—where al ready, for some reason she could not un derstand. she was beginning to feel they were looked on with suspicion and re sentment. But the man refused. He went out, banging the door behind him. and Betty turned the key in the lock with a sense of relief. A few moments ago she had longed for company for hu man speech. Now she was thaankful to bo alone. Pleasant Thoughts. She sat down again and resumed her knitting, striving tn fix her thoughts on the man in his prison, pleasant and lov ing thoughts, that might have their in fluence perhaps upon his. She liked to think that—to believe that when, night and morning, she sent her greeting to him she was conscious in some manner of her love going out to him on some wave of thought transference. But her thoughts broke and scattered, refused to concentrate —thoughts of her sister in the lonelx house in Sussex, thoughts of Paul Saxe as she had seen him last in a white heat of anger that he had con trolled. but could not disguise-thoughts of the strange woman whose hnuse-ma.e she was. Inside that locked door what was she doing? Without fire, perhaps without light Bett\ had ventured to remonstrate with her yesterday and had received a cold rebuke that had brought the tears smarting to her eyes The wind howled and raged about the house, at intervals the snow, drifting down the wide chim ney. caused the fire to hiss and splutter Presently Betty was aware of anothei sound that was not of the wind or the melting snow on the fire the low. monot onous sound of a human voice She started and the knitting dropped to the hearth with a faint click of steel ' needles. Who was speaking—who was there with Mrs. Rimington behind the . ] locked door? With a curious fear catching at her heart. Betty crept across the kitchen to 1 the door that gave access to Mrs. Rim ’ mgton's room. Her face was as white as tho ar.cv. Lhat was covering the moor with its winding sheet and her hands trembled. Then with a rush the blood ! came back to her heart. It was Deborah ' Rimington s own voice repeating some thing in a low. monotone. The words came to her through the closed door as the voice rose and fell: “For all sacrifice Is too little for a sweet savor unto Thee.” Then, on a rising note that culminated , m a volume of hoarse passion “Woe to the nations that nse up V’S njt my kmdred! The Lord Aimiohtv i will ’Z\.e vengeance on them m the dev . / of judgment—putting fire and worms in ( their flesh, and they shall feel them and . weep forever.” Betty drew back with a little indraw ing of the breath. She could not have told why. but there seemed to her some thing terrible and horrible in the sound of this lonely woman sitting there in the cold and the darkness acclaiming the sav age words of the fierce woman of the Jews, Judith, lhe daughter of Merari, j who. by beauty and treachery, subdued > lhe enemy of her race tn his death. "Fire and worms in their flesh/' The reciting voice rose to a wail. Bet ty. with a sudden impulse of horror, thrust up her hands to her ears and ran back, crouching to her seat at the fire. Then, all at once, a sound cut through the silence that brought her upright and rigid the loud, clamorous summons of a bell. "The prison bell!" she cried aloud. There was no doubt of it: no mistaking that metallic clamor. The wind must have changed since the morning. It sounded over the moor as though it had rung only a few yards from their door— no. nearer still It seemed as though every stroke of the iron tongue was beating upon her heart The Man's Hour.

DON’T APOLOGIZE AGAIN. Dear Miss Fairfax: I am sixteen and considered ve’r?- good looking and am also very pop ular. I have had a quarrel with one of my boy friends. I told him he made me tired. He asked me if I meant it. and I said "Yes.” After that he refused to talk to me. I hifve written him him to pardon me for saying that, hut he refuses to do so. ELISE. You have done your part. If he Is such a sensitive soul that he can't for give and forget such a trifling remark, you are happier with his name cut oft your list of friends. GIVE HIM TIME. Dear Miss Fairfax: I am seventeen and am keeping steady company with a young man, age 22. I would like to know if he really loves me H. D. If he does he will let you know. In the meanwhile, don't hasten th« decla ration. That is one of the things that is never so satisfactory as when told at just the right time and place. Your impatience may frighten it away. YOU HAVE DONE YOUR PART. Dear Miss Fairfax: Last summer I became acquaint ed with a young gentleman. He claims he loves me. We see each other very seldom, so we corre spond; I think I insulted him in ‘he last letter, which I really did not mean to do: and now’ he does not write. I wrote an apology and still he does not answer. E. I. Your offense was unfortunate, hut you recognized that you had done wrong, and apologized. You can do no more. Further self-reproach will look like pursuit. It will, moreover, humili ate you more than you deserve. If he cares for you he will come hack. Make no further attempt to coax him.
