I Your Problems «' Dear Martha Allen: I have been go ing about with a girl for about a year. I have never kissed her, nor have I made known my inentior i be cause I am not in a financial portion to talk seriously upon the question of marriage. I love this girl with all my heart though I have never told her in any way. I do not want to hold her to a promise when I have no right to do so. What shall I doT JIMMIE. First thing to do is to take stock of yourself and decide as to the pros pects of your future. If you feel that you are capable of getting ahead there is no reason why you shouldn't discuss the future with this girl. When it is very likely that you will go on caring for this girl, the next step is to toll her about it. It is her affair as much as yours and she has a right to some of the decisions if she is to be your wife. Sometimes a girl needs to stabilize her affairs by knowing that someone is working for her sake. You should have a conference with her. Give her the privilege of deciding whether of net she is ready to wait for you to make good and to make ready to marry her. Olive: Bread and butter plates are used for most every meal now'. They are cleared from the table when des sert is served. Alice: At an afternoon reception you might have chocolate or tea, sandwiches or small cakes. Some times people prefer coffee, so it is well to have it. Candies and nuts are sometimes added. Ora: After leaving a house where you have visited for a week or more you should write & letter of thanks. It should be written within two or three days after departure. It need . only be short.

Mixson dance orchestra will play. .—----— \ Adele Garrison “My Husband's Love” Who Is the Masked Person That Stared at Madge? That Harry Underwood would re member my Inordinate liking for sea food I was sure, and I therefore was not surprised when after an hors d'oeuvre of anchovies and caviar, the waiter brought clam cocktails, fol lowed by cups of steaming clam broth. The portions of both appetizers and cocktails were smaller than the ordi nary and I recognized another spe cial touch of my escort’s. A dinner ho orders has a number of courses, but all the earlier ones are curtailed In quantity, while their quality—and novelty—are accentuated. But It was when the third course came on that Mr. Underwood's spark ling eyes and expression, like that of a benevolent Sunday school Santa Claus, told me that he expected me especially to enjoy the contents of the silver-covered dish which the waiter served as If he were perform ing a rite. I often wonder what are the real thoughts beneath the reverential solemnity of waiters before the dishes they serve. That they often perform their functions with a mental "tongue in the cheek” I am sure. The contents of the dish brought genuine enthusiasm, however, to my gustatory soul, which found expres slon In quick speech: "Oh! Roasted escargots!” I ex claimed gleefully. ‘"Wherever did you find them? I haven’t seen any—” Harry Is Reminiscent. "Since the war,” Mr. Underwood supplemented, with a triumphant smile. “Neither has anybody else to speak of. But there'B a genuine French chef In the kitchen here, and wherever there’s a French culinary expert you'll find snails." “Don't call them that." I said with a petulant little shudder. “It dulls the edge of my appetite.” “Pardon!” He grinned mischiev ously. “But you ought to have a soul above the alphabet. D'ye remember how Dicky and Lil used to glower while you and I reveled In this course?” “I don't want to,” I retorted, as I began the delicate task of extracting the tempting roasted morsel from the tiny hot shell. "If 1 did, I should re member Dicky’s comments an the dish and probably send half my por tion away untasted. “He had some vocabulary, the old Dlcky-blrd!” my husband's oldest friend said reminiscently, and then after a little silence, he spoke abruptly: “Them were the times, old gal! Them were the times!” There was an Intonation In his voice which caused me to look at him aharply. Waa It poselble that he re greeted the folly which had cost him l.lllian's wifely comradeship, even though romantic affection never had entered Into their union, or was his repining simply a wish for the return of the social evenings which he, Lll lian, Dicky and I used to spend together? “Shall We Dance?” I was at a lnsa for a reply to hlR apparently flippant little speech, and took refuge In as apparent an absorp tlon In the escargots. When he spoke again It was to voice aoms laughable, low toned comment upon an oddly assorted party of diners near us, and when the course which had ao de lighted me waa finished, he gave a direction to the wnlter to delay the next course and, riling, held out his hand to me. “Shall we dance?” he asked, and for perhaps ten minutes, which, to my surprise, I found all too short, 1 renewed a pleasurable experience which I had not enjoyed since Harry Underwood's path In life diverged so aharply from that of his wife and his moat Intimate friends, Dicky and me. Dicky used to say there waa no better dancer In the universe than Harry Underwood, and in the old days I shared hla opinion. His step was perfectly fitted to mine, and when dancing with him f always forgot the animosity against him which gen erally lay deep In my consciousness. He had lost none of hla skill, T found In the first few seconds of our dance together and delllierately 1 put away from me the protest* my Puri tan conscience was frantically trying to register upon my mental retina, and gave myself up to the enjoyment of the moment. , It was upon our fourth round of the floor thnt I became conaclous of eyee following me. It wae a rather sub conations sensation, but I alwny* heed the psychic little warning*, end I furtively turned my head toward the direction from which I had felt the glance. From beneath my eyelashes T saw the dins upon which the rabaret per formers waited between their turns. A group of dancers whose faces were concealed by masks stood there, end I knew that the eyes of one of them were fixed upon me Comings, Goings of People You Know V_r -J Paul Paulson Is In Omaha for a week. • Fritz Bucholz will leave next week for Duluth, Minn.
