/?y Beatrice Fairfax.
TIME WILL ARRANGE THAT.
1 Dea: Miss Fairfax:
I am a high school girl of seven-
I teen, and deeply in love with a stu
dent two years my senior, who at
tends the same school. Since child
hood wo have been close friends
1 and have spent a large part of our
lives together. However, our par
ents seem to disapprove of the
match, on account of our youth.
ABI’SED.
Your parents are right. You are too
? young to marry.
But you ate not too young to love. It
seems to me a love affair like yours,
based on a friendship from childhood,
promises an ideal wedded life. Just go
' on loving, and wait for marriage till
> your parents say you are old enough.
YOU ARE TOO YOUNG
Dea Miss Fairfax:
I am an attractive blonde of six
teen. but look to be 21. A few
i weeks ago 1 met a young man of
twenty. We were not introduced.
' but kept company for four weeks
He v. as then called out of town on
i business, but promised to write,
which he did. After He left town I
found I did not even care for him
as a friend, so did not answer his
letter. He is now returifing to my
' home town to wo k. Should I apol
ogize. or am I too young to keep
> company? SWEET SIXTEEN.
• I do not like the manner in which you
made this man’s acquaintance. Unless
you know some one who will vouch for
him. let the acquaintance terminate.
You are too young to know men for
. yourself.

I THINK Taft has a einch, sed Pa.
For heving's saik, sed Ma. doan’t
pester me with that politicks talk
all the time. That is all that 1 have
heard all day. The butcher was here to
eolleck his bill and he toald me that
Taft wud win. The fee man'fras here
and he was boosting Wilson. The milk
man was here & he sed he wished they
cud git a good prihlbitshun candidate.
No wonder. Pleese cut it out, Sed Ma. ’
All rite, sed Pa. One morning you
tell me not to reed the paper at brek
fast <<• to talk to you insted, & the
next morning, when 1 try to talk to you
insted of reeding the paiper, I git an
other bawling out. That is sum motto
that we have on the wall, isen’t it? sed
Pa.
Doan’t burn up. deer, sed Ma. Talk
about something else: that is all I
mean. Wimmen isen’t interested in
politicks. Why doan’t you ewer talk
to me about things that wimmen prizes,
like bargains? There is the luvllest
silk sale at one of the stores. I was
jest reeding it. ,
I think Rusevelt has s outside
chanst, sed Pa.
As I was saying about this silk sale,
sed Ma, it is the chanst of a lifetime.
You know, husband deer, I like to help
you all I can, beekaus I know how
hard you work. I alw-ays try to be of
assistance to you. This silk is only
five dollars a yard. It was neerly six ‘
Hollars a yeer ago today. All I wud
need wud be ten yards & I would hav«
a butiful frock.
1 wish we had a man like Grover
Cleveland or some other grand old
master, sed Pa. Speek up. Bobble, Pa
sed. & tell yure mother who was the
grand old master of them all.
All rite, Pa, I sed. I think the grand
