About eight months ngo I met n young man nt a party. 1 took a liking to him and he nlso seems to earn for me and asked If ho could tnke me home. Now, cvqr since then he has been calling on me nbout threo or four times a week. The other night when ho came to sro mo ho asked me to marry him. I told him I loved him well enough, but thought I was too young to settlo down, but he pays he can't live without me. I told him all the reasons I could, but he said he does not care but Just wants me to marry him He tells me he could live with his mother and I with mine. I said I didn't call that marriage I have talked It over with my mother ond all sho will say Is, "As you make your bed you will have to He in It" She said If bli.u told me not to marry him I would do it anyway.

This young man lives In the same vicinity nnd rides with us, paying our carfare a number of times. We tried every way possible not to make him Vay our fnre. Po you think It was an impolite thing for us to do? Taking us homo on commencement night, we mentioned that we would re ceive our dollar, which was tho entrance fee, and that we would spend the money at n show. Knowing our Intention, the lust evening of night school he stopped us In the hallway nnd took us home us usual. On going homo he naked us If we wished to go with him to a nearby I tneatre. we agreed to go to me snow W'ni It right to go with him? While tilling home we thanked him for the treat ho gnvo us. Do you think it was Impollto for us not inviting him Into our home that evening?

Just as though the old maid's answer, the nctor's excuse, of whatever tho "point" mny be.

Now Is it proper for us to send him n card when we are uway for our vaca tion, simply ns n rcmembranco for his kindness toward us? A cousin of ours took us lo the theatre tevernl times during this winter nnd we would like to know in Vhat way wo could show him how much wo appre ciated his company. Is It necessary for us to repay these young men by sending them a gift? MARY AND FANNIE. It would have been more pollto to ask him Into meet your parents.

A land breeze, and n cloudless sky is there anything worse nt the seashore? It was before tho bathing hour, , nnd of course, nobody would break that tradition nnd seek the coolest of the waves ahead of time. People strolled up the hot boardwalk, and strolled down again, trying each tlmo to think that it was a little cooler and that the wind wns changing. The wind wasn't, but the thought helped some.

And .then, of course, there wns nothing to do but Bit there nnd knock It nil down, with thoso jerky. .violent motions of his and then build i: all up again. That got tiresome.

Thnt's one of the reasons I have always liked the ex pression one bccs fo much now stylish stouts. If a woman dreases well nnd takes care of her appearance she can be as well and as stylishly dressed as her slenderer sister. For instance, I kntm of a shop In town that makes a special ty of blouses for "stylish stouts." The sizes range from 40 to fill.

And sprinkled on the top arc tiny little peppers that give a wonder fulflavor. I haven't read their advertising, nnd I nm not sure just what Is claimed for these lovely sanitnry hair brushes. Hut here is why I like them. The bristles, which nre of the very best quality, are set In a rustproof metal and nre firmlv held so that they will not "shed." And between the rows of bristles nre slits, so that particles of dust ond the like ore not held in the bristles, but nre brushed right out through the openings. This menns thnt you nre not using n brush that collects and holds dust. And it is exceedingly easy to wash. The prices of this modem sanitnry brush tauge from .f-'.'ri to S4..-0.

Making More Money Something Out of Nothing Men and women, too have made money out of all sorts of quMr things, from banana peels to rag dolls but Mrs. H.' K. Gellard, of New York,' Is one, of the fW persona who have mas tered'the art of making something out ot nothing. Or course, In the final analysis Mrs. Gellard doesn't make money out of nothing; but sho comes so close to it that the simile Is permissible. She uses' scraps which have been thrown away scraps of paper and cloth and furniture and. touching them with the maglo wand of good taste and a keen eye for color, disposes of them for more tha-.t their original price when new. It wasn't so very long ago that tha combination of tho high cost of living nnd the high cost of materials con vinced Mrs. Gellard that people wcr overlooking a good bet when they threw nway anything, no matter how old or worn It might appear to be. The scrap heaps and the Junk piles, she figurel, contained a fortuno for any one who had the patience to work therrr properly. So she Inaugurated a campaign to salv ngo theso riches and make them over, Sho strolled about, picking up a broken chair, a bit of ciumpled brocade, a strip of soiled silk and a few other articles at which oven the most careful offeconcit hand men would have sniffed. The appll. cation of soap and wnter, a few louche of paint and her sense of the aitlsttc worked wonders. Out cf tho discard shs found that she had drawn many articles of real value articles which found .1 ready sale at her own price. Little by little she Increased ' tho scope of her activities; nnd It wasn't long before she began to be known ns "the woman who could do wonders with nothing." Hotels which were faced by the prohibitive cost " of ledecoration ; private houses which needed tho touch of un artistic hand; peoplo who were looking for somethlnt just a little out of the ordinary niL these began to call upon her. ' -meres no magic in it," sne says, "Only tho application of soap, water, good taste and industiy."
