Lover Indifferent Fears She Will Lose Him By MARTHA MXEN. ^ Dear Mias Allen I have been going S^'ibout with a man four years my se T%-v for over three months nrd have learned to iove him. However, he is very indifferent nnd sometimes acts as if he were grow ing tired of my company, and I have tried to tell him (hat lie sees me too often, but he continues to call on me. No, Miss Allen. I am old enough to know that I really love this man and do not want to lose him. What would you advise me to do? * BETTY. Don't be so critical of the moods which the young man, in common with most of humanity, may indulge in now- nnd then. Don't invite trou ble by anticipating it. Instead of watching to see if his love is the same one day as the next, be grateful fi.r his companionship and strive to understand and sympathise with him. .lust taks it for granted that if o man wants to see you it must be be cause he enjoys lming with you. You interpret his actions to moan that he is growing tired of you, but such a tl ought probably would pet enter his head if you didn’t nut it there by fussing and fidgeting and making problem* where none need exist. Adele Garrison “My Husband’s Love” Why Madge Wisely Decided Not to Risk a Sr cm-. I mounted the stairs slowly, acute ly conscious of the troubled gaze, which Mr. Schwartz was sending after me. The old janitor was so childlike, so transparent in his at tempts to conceal from me the identi ty of the tnan in the hallway above ours, that If I had been less miser able I could have smiled amusedly. Rut, like the famous waitress of Ade's comedy, I "hadn't a laugh left in my system." It was easy to visualize the little scene which must have been staged after I had informed Mr. Schwartz the man in the corridor above ours -a; * w ho had drawn hack so precipitately ^ w hen I had opened our door. The - old janitor must have gone directly to the spot. If he had found Dicky there, as I was almost certain he had done, 1 knew how plausible must have been my husband's explanation and how royal the tip by which he insured silence. But the old chap in his anxiety to earn his reward had blunderingly given me the clue I needed. Or—I stopped short, to consider this—was it a blunder after all? Might he not be shrewder than lie appeared? I surmised that the old fellow hod a genuine likinr for me, which had net been lessened by my morning talk with his afflicted wife. Perhaps by speaking of Dicky's re turn, directly after he had told me that the man in the hall was a tenant playing a joke on his wife, he count ed on my ability to make four of two and two. But why had Dicky done so pre posterous and undignified a thing? There was but one answer, of course to that, when I had brought forth from their recesses my mental notes of the day's odd incidents. Remem bering Dicky's start and Question at the sound of Moiiie Fawcett's voice, and his espionage of our hall ^ ei., ni'rongh which the girl had to pass to reach the door. I was sure that he had feigned going to the studio, and returning had taken up his sta lion in the hall above, that he might fee her without my knowing it. Given this hypothesis, the next step was an easy geometrical procedure. He must have recognized her voice, or thought he uid. and wished to make certain of her identity without any one, least of all the girl herself, sus Ipcting his purpose. This in turn argued his having seen—or heard— her before. Then—it must have been she. I pulled myself up short as I reach ed my own liall door. I was leaving the logical for the fantastic, I told myself. Besides I knew my hus band's temperament too well to mini mize the risk I ran in bringing up a subject so fraught with dynamite as this would he. I had nothing defi nite to go, and whether Dicky really had given me cause for Jealous anger or not, his reaction to any accusation of mine, no matter how guarded, was sure to be a tempestuous scene. With tlie Braithwaitea, Lillian and Marion on their way to us. with a welcoming dinner on my hands, to say nothing of the tense anxiety of the next few days over Mrs. Durkee, 1 could not risk the racking strain which any open quarrej with Dicky always brings me. Ba before 1 opened our own door 1 had finished the battle with myself begun on the stairs ami looking into the mirror afforded by the thick glass. I even managed a smile not too mechanical as J en tered our living room. “Oh. you've returned from the stu dio,'’ 1 said carefully registering sur prise at Dicky lounging in an easy chair with the morning newspapers on another. A paper had concealed his face when I had entered, ay*a I guessed that he had flashed a furfive, w-atchful glance at me before reply ing. I was sure, moreover, that 1 caught distinct relief in the mocking, laughter-filled eyes, which he turned on me as he rose to his feet and made me a deep obeisance. “No, you've made a slight mis take," he answered. "I'm ’on the elevated, halfway between. This is my astral body." "I suppose ’those are astral news papers and cigar ashes, too,” I re torted, with a laugh. “I warn you.

And the hardest thing to pay for is something which is gone. Some thing to eat is the one thing which ought not to be charged. In most instances the merchant can recover his goods if not paid for— hot so the groceryman, as the customer eats up the collateral. People who buy regularly from PIGGLY WIGGLY can save enough to pay the water and light bills. Stationery, postage, bookkeeping cost, de livery service and clerk hire all go into the cost of groceries bought on the charge plan. # Easy lies the head that does not worry about an unpaid grocery bill.
