Have a thorough-going talk with tho young man himself, and find out whether he does not Intend to keep his promises to you, and why. If he has been in sincere und inconstant, I.am depty sorry for the paia.thls wijl rrtuse you, but I can give you no other advice, in that case, than to put him out of your mind us promptly us possible. IS TIMID WITH (URI.S* ; DKAR MISS FAIRFAX: I am an' inventor of 21, bashful and timid with women. From childhood f have cured little for them, and for this reason 1 have not been able to at tract the attention of some honest girl who would love nie. 1 take more In terest in thinkliiK and developing new ideas than In going with girls to duhces und having a good time, Tlven ( 1 am very fond of a cousin of, mine. ; who is 17, ah attractive girl, and i . believe she la just the kind of young woman who could lie-my wife. Rut; I the majority of people say.'that mar- ! I Tying a cousin is u great mistake. I i I have not asked or promised th(s girl , I anything, but the way she acts makes ' ' me think that she cares a great deal i | for me. Now, dear Miss Fairfax, do j you think it is proper to nßtrry a I ' cousin? . \ . 11 If you and this young girl were, deeply in love witU each other the fact of your being cousins might] con- 1 stltute a real problem. But sine* you | evidently are not, why. not avoid the | problem altogether? You are still ] very youiflfrwait till you have known I more tiirls and really feci the need of love and marriage In your life. i When you are actually in love you will not feel the uncertuinty tliut you ' ' do now. llKit HAPPINESS AT STAKE DTI A It.

After he was well he told me evcr'v ! thing. He met the girl at a party. He I went to her home several times. Her | pnrents, thinking he was a single fcl i low. treated liini splendidly. The girl I is now frantically in love with him. My husband knows he made a mis take, and Is sorry. Should I forgive l him? What should 1 % do about the l girl? Should I tell the parents, or | would it he better not to say anytliing. | * A. B. I T should say that this unhappy situation Is likely to straighten Itself out if you cimi succeed In keeping your splf-control and acting as though nverythißK were as usual. Since you* liusbaudJifti told you the whole story sad admitted that lie has done wrong, I do nPt see why yoty cannot forgtve him.
