It was useless to sax more, so I

Dear Daughter in Jesus

there is not a word of truth In

threads of Innumerable Impulses
unknown to myself, and therefore
firmly onvinced that Martin's story
was not only true, but a i»art of the
whole sordid business whereby a
husband was being nought for me.
With this thought I went about all
day. asking myself what I could do
even yet. but finding no answer until
9 o’clock at night, when. Immediately
after supper (we lived country fash

“Now then, <»fT to bed. girls. E\ -

morning."
Never had I written such a letter
before. 1 poured my whole heart on
to the paper, saying what marriage
meant to me. as the Pope himself had
explained it, a sacrcment implying
and requiring love as the very soul
of it,■ and since 1 did not feel this
love for the man I was about tu
marry, and had no grounds for think
ing he felt it for me. and being sure
that other reasons had operated to
bring us together. I begged Father

OFF WITH THE OLD LOVE.
Dear Miss Fairfax:
I am eighteen and have been
keeping company with a young
man for the past year and a half.
I am only finding out now that
we can not agree and I am not
sure whether I love him or not.
He had a friend who asked me
to go with him about two weeks
ago. and then I thought I was too
young and told him so. Since
then he has not paid much atten
tion to me. as he knows I am
going with his friend.
Now that I am older. I feel sure
T love this young man bettor than
the one I am going with.
VIRGINIA.
Remember the adage, “Off with the
old love before you are on with the
new." See less of the first lover.
You will do both him and yourself an
injustice if you continue to accept his
attentions, feeling as you do. Dion
trust to the god of love, who watches
over girls who are honest and true, to
bring the second man to you.
THEY MAY BE.
Dear Miss Fairfax;
I am keeping company with a
young man three years my senior
and would like to know if he loves
me.
When I see him he acts cold,
but when he writes you would
think he thinks there Is no girl
like me.
He took my girl friend and me
out once. They went dancing to-

thay do make you feel stupid. It is

Just what are the ded langwidges &
how ded are thay?
Well. Greek & Latin, for exampel.
sed Mister Dixon. Thay are merely
called ded langwidges beekaus they
are not used in our modern life. Thay
are not in common use, like German
or French or Spanish.
I see, sed Pa. Then you admit that
you are teeching a lot of our young

self. My girl friend is keeping
steady company with a friend of
his. It would break my heart tz>
give him up. Do you-think there
are signs of love?
A GIRL FROM FLATBUSH.
The signs of love are so varied that
no one can say this young man does
not love you.
Perhaps the fault lies with you. It
may be that you let him see that you
care a great deal tor him, and that he
has the power to make you jealous.
Don’t do it. Be a little more Indif
ferent.
BEYOND SUGGESTION.
Dear Miss Fairfax:
1 am twenty-one, and in love
with a young girl of eighteen,
who has declared her love for me.
but we can not agree because of
the difference in our religion, she
being a Catholic, and very relig
ious, while 1 am a Jew, and not
religious. She insists that she
can not give up her religion.
Would you advise me to drop
her, or wait until she is older?
FRANK.
A question of difference in creed b
too serious for, any third party tn
settle.
Asa general rule, the man gives up
his church, for the reason that a
woman's church means more to her
She Is naturally more devout.
1 hope you will not make a decision
in haste, remembering that it Is se
rious, and for life.
I have not seel that the study of
those langwidges is useless to the
children, beekaus it is useful, sed
Mister Dixon. He looked at Pa kind
of hard for a minnit & then he went
on talking to Ma & his wife about
the show wich he had been to see.
1 newer cud see what good Greek
& Latin is. sed Pa. 1 studied Latin
for ten years. Pa. sed, & I have for
got every bit of it that I lerned. It
newer was a single bit of use to me
I havent met a Latin feller to talk
with since I graduated. What is the
use of knowing a lot of Latin A
then going out to a Hibernian ball
A- trying to start up a conversation:'
Nobody thare wud be a Latin & I
wud prubly git thrown out on my
hed.
You musn’t mind my deer hus
band. sed Ma to Mister Dixon. He
is ore of those quaint old-fashioned
peepul that gets an idee into his
hed & talks about it all the eevning.
One of his cunning traits is never
to admit that he is wrong about any
thing at any time, sed Ma. I always
humor him. Ma sed.
But I insist that what I am wr
ing to the professor is ail truth, sed
Pa. Os course I know thare are a
few Latin phrases like a la carte, table
de hotay, &• Gesundheit that are
handy to use sumtimes, but on the
other hand the child’s brain beecums
all clogged up with a lot of Isatin
words that will never be of any
erthly use to him
I guess Mister Dixon and his wife
seen that Pa dident know’ tvhat he
was talking about, so thay jest laffed
&• changed the subjeck, & the rest of
the eevning Pa was good natured A’
a fine gentleman, the way he cud
always be is he wanted to. I though’
he had forgot all about the Latin
argument, but after thay was gone
he sed to Ma & me. Did you see how f I
made them wise Dixons shut up?
