Please Tell Me What to Do By CYNTHIA Cynthia wishs to remind her readers that letters should be short, written on one side of the paper only and signed with the full nnmc. The name will not be printed with the letter. Toys Will Come Mrs. M, Dc T. Thank you for your little note about the four babies. The Ptniuo Lkdoi:ii Santa Clans will send something to each one. Another Letter to A. L. L. H. Dear Cjnthia Please publish tills letter to advKe the joung man A.- L. L. II. A. L. L. II. Whoever you are, you aie lucky! IVw are fortunate as jou to marry n gill who makes a business of her virtues: "Modesty and self-respect," ns von hae said. But if jou really think that she lines jou, jou only ought to be blamed for jour trou bles. Your fiancee is joung .vet, perhaps she never loved before and never was kissed by a man. Her parents must be cry good guardians nnd must havo tiuglit licr how to receive you. Also, following the theory of such girls, she is used to obejing her parents. If jou know that such is the case, your troubles can he oveicoine bv nr lidding n little moie confidence to jour self when jou go to see her ngnin. But not too much so she will get suspicious. (o graduallj nlicnd with this idea in jour mind and I nm sure jou will succeed, because she loes jou, nnd that should be clear to voti. Slip can not ndiaucc her place, it is ulnars up to the man to make advnnccs. The wmds of Oabrielc D'Anniinzio, tho cclebinti'd Itali.iu noet and warrior. should be nu example. When he spoke iu iaia u lew uujs ago he said: "Coming here I thouzlit that I was bringing the flame of Piume, but now 1 reulize that I have brought the flame into a flame." He meant iust what I want to advise jou to do. Take lour love to her, take our affections to her, and ou will lealize what D'Aununzio had to renli.e, "that you took affection and tenderness to affection and tender ness." Who can tell jou my dear A. L. L. II., that jour fiancee's heart isn't sun- pressed like that of the people of Zara? And Is she not wnltiug for you to re move that painful weight from her heart? Oh, do go to her, she is waiting I am bure. ' ONE THAT KNOWS. To "College Man" A letter came for Cynthia signed by "College Man," but it was wiittcn on glossy paper with a very hard pencil. It is utterly impossible to make It out, though Cynthia lias nsked othcis to help her decipher it. She is borry it cannot be published. As far as she could make out, it hud to do with dancing or dance hulls. She's Going to a Show . Dear Cynthia This, will be the first time I am going out with a fellow. Is it right to ask him to wait for me out side the dressiug room or should we not go in? After the show, if he wants to take me to supper, and I don't feel like eating, shnll I t,ell him so or shall I accept his invitation? When nt supper, is it my duty to order what I want or is it up to him? If it is mine, what should I order! About how many things? ANXIOUS. It is not necessarj to go into the dressing room beforo n show. One usu ally takes one's wraps to one's seat. Of course, if you must smooth up your hair, the gentleman with jou will wait for jou in the lobby of the theatre. It is not usual for a young girl to go to supper unchapcroncd, but if j-ou are allowed to do so (be sure to ask your parents or guardian), the ordering should be done by the man, who will probably nsk what you prefer. A Word to "Lieut. B." Dear Cynthia I am answering Lieutenant II. s interesting letter: I nm sorry jou have not met "Miss Ideal" ns jet, but I Buppose tho time will not be very far away before you do meet her. 1 It ou are not bnshful I cannot see why it is that you feel uncomfortable in the presence of girls; believe mo or not, but jou're the first fellow I ever heard say that, as most fellows like to be in the company ot girls and another thing, I don t think it is right to let tho girl do all the talking. Don't you think she ever gets tired? I think you ought to do your share of talking too, when you are with her. Most girls delight in taking one's soft hat and trying it on just to have something to do to pass the time nway. That's the only wny I can see through it. I can't seo wby a girl should call a fellow stuck up just for looking in the minor once in a while, as I cer tainly think that n fellow has just as much urivllego to look iu a mirror as the girls have. If a girl calls you stuck up for looking in a mirror, what will the can you it you never notice her? Your last question is very simple although it docs seem queer that most, prettj gins do marry Homely men. it certainly is not the looks that count. It is tho character. I would rather have n man with a high character than a man who was handsome and had no character at all. Well "Lieut. B." your letter struck me so that I could not resist answering it. I am a girl from New York and I sure would liko to meet you and have a good heart-to-heart talk. GRACE B. Last-Minute Gifts A dozen hair nets, tied up in white paper and red ribbon.

' Breaking SYNOPSIS Virginia West and Kathleen Fos ter meet at boarding school and nrc instantly attracted toward each other. The girls aro entirely differ ent in temperament, for while Vir ginia is loyal and unselfish, Kath leen hns a hard attitude toward life. She becomes engaged to Bill Lvons merely for tho thrill in it nnd dur ing the Christmas holidays Virginia promises to mnrry Jimmy Andcisou, who is also still In college. VIRGINIA was hailed by the Palm crtown girls on her return to school when they glimpsed the glittering pin on her breast. An engaged girl was always looked upon with awe in the school nnd Virginia immediately gained prestige. Everything would have gone nlong nil right if Miss Madsen had not written the news to Virginia's mother. Mrs. West appeared at the school at a great sacrifice to her personal conveni ence to tell Virginia that such a thing was not to bo considered. Virginia was reasoned with, com manded, but in the midst of tears and sobs remained firm. She would not give up Jimmy. At this stage of the game Kathleen went back on her nnd gave her no sympathy nt all. "Why don't you simply say you will give him up nnd then do ns jou like," she suggested. Virginia looked nt her and shook her head. "I couldn't; it wouldn't be hon orable." Kathleen shrugged her shoulders; "You'll never get far with those ideas of honor. You're just nctiug foolishly about it and whnt do you get out of it? Y'our mother will probably leave orders here that jou are not to be allowed to see Jimmy at all." Which was just what happened. The two young people bore this stnte of af fairs as long ns posslbic. writing long letters which Virginia posted outside of school nnd which Bill sent to Kathleen in his letters from Grant. But when early spring came and Virginin knew thnt Kathleen was meeting Bill out side, it was harder still to keep rules, particularly when Jimmy wroto nn im portunate letter telling her that he had to see her. They had a few stolen moments one nftcrnoon, but the pews that Virginia had broken rules to meet a man outside of school limits was carried back to Mibs Mndsen, who com municated immediately with Jlrs. est. ItSvas already late in May and Mrs. West decided that perhaps it would be better to remove Virginia from the school now than to wait another month. She had visions of Virginia running off with this penniless boy, ruining her life. Yes, it would be better to keep the girl nt home under her own wing. Mrs. West's idea of happiness was to find a rich and handsome husband for her daughter. She had no intention of allowing Virginia to do anything foolish, and she considered that this talk of love between n couple of children who weren't old enough to know the mean ing of the word was disgusting. Kathleen, seated on Virginia's bed and watching her pack, was sweetly subdued. She would miss Virginia, there was no doubt about that. But then there was only another mouth of school anyway and Kathleen had a beautiful plan all worked out in her mind for next year. Virginia looked pale and drajvn. She had cried a great deal, but she was quiet and resigned now and fully de termined to marry Jimmy as soon as he was ready for her. Kathleen. look ing nt her, thought how foolish any woman was to inako a fool of herself over a man. She could not see her self crying nnd bringing wrinkles into her face for any reason. Let the men do the suffering, wns Kathleen's idea. Virginia folded sheer underwear and lacy waists painstakingly, carefully. She picked up the yellow crepe frock that she had worn at Christmas time when she had been bo happy, and smiled as she put it in the trunk. It ;wjis n sad little smile, a smile that is not ordinarily secnon the face of an cight-ccn-ycnr-old girl. Kathleen spoko suddenly. "I have a surprise for you. Oh, cheer up, Vir ginia, things will come out all right. Why don't you ,mako tho best of this thing and give, your mother her way. You can still be married to Jimmv in the fall and nfter he is out of college everything will bo easier for you. Did vou know that I nm going to be in New York in tho fall?"

Tomorrow, Virginia worries! about money. Adventures With a Purse I SAW a very convenient powder case today which takes up little room, and which is uncommonly handy.

Pearl was thirteen, but she had the capable, motherly nlr of a woman. Mother and Aunt Sophy sat down, tak ing off their babies' caps, coats and, blankets. Johnny immediately developed an irrcslstiblo desire for a drink of water. , "Pearl," commanded his mother, giv ing Pearl n penny.
