very much. Do you think we are
too voung to be married?
IGNATZ.
You are too young to know what
love is. Wait four years, and, if wis
dom comes with these years, you will
•till think you are too young
CERTAINLY NOT.
T'VEAR MISS FAIRFAX:
I am nineteen. I speak to a
girl every day and 1 would like to
keep company with her. What shall
I ask her? Is 11 improper for me to
seek companionship with her if she
is two months my senior? C. C.
The difference in your age-s is too
flight to consider You need not
ask her to keep company with you.
Take her to an entertainment occa
sionally; be thoughtful and gallant, and
the first thing you know you will be
keeping company without having made
such a request.
HE IS SELFISH
T\EAR MISS FAIRFAX
For a year and half I have b«*«n
keeping company with a young man
of thirty years I am twenty two
He says he loves me more than any
thing in the world, and I believe
he does, but he says that married
life would not suit him. and that he
never Intends to marry He said
he would never get tired of me,
but that he Just thought married
life would not suit him. One time
he told me that he pitied a wife
that had to stay at home, while
her husband was at the club, and
he Hays a man will promise a wom
an anything until he gets her than
they usually went back to the old
habits.
This man loves me, I know', Just
as much as I do him, but his friends
always advise him to stay single
oh. what does he mean? He knows
that I am a nice girl, and I know
he would never try to take any
liberties, but why does he love me,
when he says he never Intends to
marry ? U)NELY.
He wants all the Joy of a woman’s
live, and none of the obligations
that attend.
He is enjoying himself w’hlle wasting
your time Perhaps if ho learns that
some other man loves you in a less
selfish way he may change his mind.
GET BETTER ACQUAINTED.

1 -tO an expectant mother:
You tell me another child Is com

full of trouble and anxiety; and sorry
for yourself.
It does not seem to enter your mind
that you are forming the nature of
your child by your moods; and that
you have an obligation resting upon
you to use will power, self control,
prayer and faith while this helpless
being is carried under your heart.
You are building something which
will means good or evil for the world
for time and enternity.
You are bringing into existence a
HUMAN BEING.
Such a colossal thought ought to take
such a complete possession of you that
nothing petty, nothing gloomy, noth
ing selfish, nothing less than greatness
and glory could enter your mind.

That child now finder your heart has
lived many times before on earth. It
will come with many Impulses and ten-
tencies brought over from okl incarna
tions; and many others from ancestors
of your own and the ancestors of the

BUT GREATER THAN ALL THESE
IMPULSES AND TENDENCIES IS
THE MIND OF THE MOTHER TO
MOULD AND SHAPE THAT CHILD
INTO WHAT IT WILL BE.
If you realize how wonderful is the
work given to do, and how far reach
ing will be the results of how you do
it, a great awe, will fall upon you, with
a great exaltation.
You will fall on your knees and lift
your face to the Invisible Helpers, and
cry out: “Creator, God and all Holy

And always will there be the prayer

Daysey Mayme and Her Folks
By FRANCES L. GARSIDE.
W HEN it comes to love affairs, the
modem girl’s heart is an in
cubator, compared with which
the old-fashioned girl’s heart was a
hen.
Which means that the capacity of the
modern girl’s heart is unlimited.
Daysey Mayme Appleton has always
made it a point to use the scraps of
her funeral-baked meats for an ap
petizer for the succeeding love feast.
With one swipe of her powder rag she
wipes out the traces of tears shed for
a departing love, and touches up her
nosd to attract a new.
No widower returning from a brand
new grave in the cemetery ever wasted
less time.
Such energetic measures are not with
out their .results, and before her fami
ly had recovered from her last broken
engagement, she was engaged anew.
Her lover, who lived in a distant town,
had proposed by letter.
It would take time to reply. It would
be at least eighteen hours before he
could get her answer.
“He might in that long time,” mused
Daysey Mayme, “change his mind.”
Such a risk was too great to contem
plate. She would telegraph.
Ten minutes later she was in the
nearest telegraph office, facing a youth
who looked as importnat as if he were
the United States Government.
“How many words.” she asked him.
“can I send for twenty-five cents?'’
He told her ten, and she retired to a
table to compose her answer.
’Yes, I am proud to say it. Come
at once.”
Just ten! She was delighted with her
reply, till a sudden harrowing thought
struck her. That word “Yes,” was so
little and unobstruslve. Suppose it
should get lost off? She would write
another message and put it in the mid
dle.
‘You have made me very happy. Yes,
come to me.”
But the word “Yes" looked smaller
„nd less secure than ever, and telegraph
companies are so careless. She tried
it at the end of the message and realized
that its peril was still greater.
Daysey Mayme is a resourceful girl.
After chewing her pencil and writing
message after message, she sent one
that could leave no doubt.
The operator had said ten words.
She counted them carefully, and here
is the message she sent:
“Yes. Yes! Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yeg.
Yes. Yes. Yes.”
“If the telegraph company loses half
of them, she said to herself with a sigh
of satisfaction when on her way home,
“there will still be enough left.”

Dona Pomposa was running toward

ran will have everything Garflas will
be poor, this man will be rich. Marry
the American,” and she beamed upon
Rogers.
Eulogia shrugged her shoulders, and
j turned to her practical wooer. "My
mother say she like you the best.”
“Then I may look upon that little
transaction as settled?”
“Si, if you like it."
“Which art thou going to marry,
Eulogia 0 " asked one of the girls that
night as they rode down the mountain.
“Neither.” said Eulogia, serenely.
E ULOGIA had just passed through an
animat ed interview with her
mother.
“Thou wicked little coquette,” cried
Dona Pomposa, her voice all worn out.
“Thou darest repeat to me that thou
l wilt not marry the Senor Rogers?”
Won’h Marry Rogers.
“I will not. It was amusing to be
engaged to him for a time, but now 1
am tired Y'ou can give him what ex
cuse you like, but tell him to go.”
”And the clothes 1 have made -the
chests of linen w’ith the beautiful desh-
lados that nearly put out Aunt Anas-
tacia’s eves’ The new silk gown, the
magnificent bed-spread with the lace as
deep as my hand!”
“They will keep until 1 do get married.
Besides. I need some new clothes.”
“Dost thou, indeed, thou little brat!
Thou shalt not put on a smock or a
gown in that chest if thou goest naked.
But thou shall marry him. 1 say!”
’’No!”
"Oh, thou ice-coated little devil!’’
Even Dona Pomposa’s stomach was
trembling with rage, and her fingers
were jumping. “Whom, then wilt thou
marry? Garflas?''
“No.”
“Thou wilt be an old maid? Like
your aunt Anastacia?”
"Perhaps.”
“O—h—! Who is this*?”
A stranger in traveling serape and
riding boots had dashed up to the
house and flung himself from his horse.
“A your service, senora. At your
service! I come from the Senor Don
Thomas Garflas. Word has reached him
that the Senorita Eulogia is about to
marry an American. I humbly ask you
to tell me if this be true or not. I
have been told in town that the wed
ding Is set for the day after to-mor
row.”
“Ask her!” cried Dona Pomposa
tragically.
‘•Senorita, at your feet.”
“You can tell your friend that 1 l ave
no more intention of marrying the
American than I have of marrying him.”
“Senorita! He expected to return and
marry you next week.”
“We expect many things in this world
which we do not get.”
”But— a thousand apologies for my
presumption, senorita why did you not
write and tell him so?”
“I never write letters.”
“But you could have sent word hv
some friend traveling to San Francisco,
senorita.”
* xie w’ould find it out in good time
Why hurry?”
"Ay, senorita, well are you named
Dona Coquetta. You are famous even
to San Francisco. I will return to my
poor friend. At your service, senora.
At your service, senorita,” and he bowed
himself out and galloped away.
Dona Pomposa threw herself Into her
chair and wept.
“I had thought to see her married to
a thrifty American. What have 1 done
to be punished with so heartless a
child? And the Americans have all the
money The little I have will go too.
We shall be left sitting in the street.
And we might have a wooden house in
San Francisco and go to a theater.
Why dost thou not soften the heart of
the wicked”-
Eulogia slipped out of the window
and went into the mission garden. She
walked slowly through the olive groves,
lifting her arms to part the branches
where the little purple spheres lay in
their sliver nests. Suddenly she came
face to face with Pablo Igneetria.
Two days later she stood with Charles
Rogers before the priest in the mission.
