Finally I come to the conclusion that I would never feel hnppy with her. I get so disgusted sometimes that I don't know what really to do. Some thing tells me that bomo day I'll meet sonic one whom I could never learn to love in a hundred rears nnd mnrrr hr right off the reel and then, of course. leol miserable the rest of my life. My mono has been for some time "Wait and trust to faith." But when you become lonefome like me, for Instance, ou will forget that there ever was such a thing as faith. Now, dear Cjnthia, what would you advise me to do in this case? Join n club where I could meet different girls? . lint j on know I don't care for that kind. I would also appreciate very much the opinion of jour renders on this subject. Please consider this as my application to become n member of jour Kcopiug.Up.Hopc Club. STIMi ON THH WATCH. Twentv-one is very joung, Still on tho Watch, to get disgusted because vou haven't met the right girl. On the vrholc not many bojs have at that age. You don't even have to join clubs to moot the girl of your dreams. You will just naturnllv meet her sooner or later and most likely when jou least expect it., But I believe iu the club be cause it gives a bov a chance to know girls in a real jolly way nnd wears off the edge of his bnshfulness. Then, too, jou know, there's no law against run ning across tho girl of vour dreams in a club! What have Keeping-Up-Hopo members to say to this new one among us? To V. G. Do I understand you are going to marry a girl to whom jou have never spoken? It is a verv dangerous pro ceeding, mv young Italian friend. Why not call on her for some time first to find out whether you renllv like her or not? People are so different after ns little as two or three dollars, Eighteen dollars a week is not enough for two to get along on nt the present cost of living. You should wait until jou arc making twenty-five dollars nt least. To "Waiting" Please write again and perhaps I can do something to help you. Give Absent Treatment Dear Cynthia A few months ago I met a joung lady whom I have learned to love dearly, and I have told her so, but she nlwajs says she doesn't believe me. , A week ago I colled on her and found her very angry and I, of course, asked her what the trouble was. She told me that I had offended her, but she would not toll me what I had said to offend her, and I can't recall anj thing I said that was Improper. I tried to conx her to tell me what wns said to offend her, but it was "nothing doing." I asked her to forgive me. which she refused to do She also refuses to see me any more. Now. Cynthia, I am pretty sure thli joung lady cares for me quite a little, s0 will you tell me what is wrong with her? I would also like some advice .from mj readers. I am not very good at love-making, as I am a CUM -SHOE MAN. Perhaps if you let this seemingly un reasonable girl alone she will have time to think things over. Stop calling her up or begging her to explnin for a while and I have no doubt that she, if she cares, will soon come to her senses. Perhaps a reader has further advice to offer. To "Dummy" It is necessary to have a great amount of talent and perseverance to become a successful actress. It also is necessary to have a comfortable sum of money in reserve to tide jou over the hard places If I were vou I would forget nil about this ambition and turn my attention to something about which I knew more.

From Hie first moment the world discover that a little girl hag golden curls nnd eyclnshes that make her baby eyes look like stars, that same world paves the wny for this little bit of femininity to regard her beauty as a passport to all things iu It. Tin's was the gist of n letter that recently came from a reader In a broad minded plea for more tolerance for and less criticism of the pretty girl. "The rest of us," the letter read in part, "arc to blame for pretty girls' bralnlcsnes. We hac so emphnsbed good looks that they hae assumed too important a position and pushed brains into the background. Parents and friends have too often taken the gen eral attitude of the world that if jou possess good looks, common sense is not necessary." From her early little girlhood, if a child Is exceptionally pretty, looks arc Indeed allowed to take pre-eminent po sition in her life. Almost without thought parents do this. Her picture Is taken with her head turned In every conceivable direction. She is kept out of school in the hftcrnoon became the card party ladles asked if dear little Muriel couldn't be there. She was so pretty it did them good just to look at her ! Nobody .ever asked Muriel to be clever or sensible or anj thing like that. They only expected her checks to be pink, her little pearly teeth to glisten, her dark eyes to shine and her hair to form a halo around her well- enough to satisfy them, well, even In her ery younj days I am sure Muriel learned the equivalent of "I should worry" In baby talk. TEACHER have been known to favor ety prcttv rhlldren. And after all, are they so culpable? What is jour own natural attitude toward the girl who is beautiful? In a certain restau rant In this city there Is an extremely pretty cashier, I am accustomed to see nearly every man try to linger at the counter when he pays his check. I find mjself almost surprised when luce the gill all alone counting money, adding up figures or some other prosaic thing. Why I should expect this young woman not to be able to count and deftly add up figures just like any other common mortal, I cannot tell. Yet, don't you sec? We all just naturally do not ex pect the beautiful girl to be anything but beautiful. With this attitude constantly en veloplng her on all sides, Is it any won der ic unusuallj pretty girl does not bother to cultivate brains? The won der really Is that as many as do score on auj thing whatever but good looks! li Help Your Skin WithCuticura All druggists: Soap 25, Ointment 25 & 50. Tal cum 25.
