My father and mother are In moderate circumstance^. I’m con sidered good looking and they, of course, wish to see me make a good marriage and be happy. The young man I’m in love with Is a divorced man. He married young and made a serious mistake. My parents seemed to count thst against him somehow. He was wonderful in the world war, hut as a result of the war he Is not In robust health, and sometimes Is forced to quit work for a while. Taking everything Into considera tion, do you think I have a fair chance of happiness? I love him. I go to business every day and am ca pable of supporting priyseif, I would be glad to continue going to business. DISTRESSED. You do not mention your age. I Imagine that you are old enough to undertake the responsibilities of mar ried life. Nor do you mention how long you have known the young man whom you say you love. Possibly your par ents feel that you have not known him long enough Or you are not old enough to be sure of your own mind. Possibly they consider his health an unfortunate factor in your plan to marry. This, of course, should be a subject for a physician to de termine. Do not marry him unless your physician considers it would be advisable. Parents generally have a reason for their objections to a marriage and their advice should always be consid ered very seriously. Why not have an affectionate talk with them? If they refuse to consent to your engagement, ask permission to keep the young man as a friend and ask him to call a' our home. You both can afford v. it if you are in love. Also he : ' come better friends with you. ■: and may prove his worth to thc.i and overcome their objections. Bobby: The situation between you and your husband is serious. If you care to preserve your marriage. I would advise you to do all in your power to effect a complete reconcilia tion without delay. You admit you were equally responsible for the mis understanding. By all means go to him at once qnd stay with him. Do not live with his people, however. If you are having trouble of any kind, keep away from relatives, either yours or his. Artistic Decoration. There are new dining suites of green enamel and cottage lines that are quite dignified enough for the regular dining room. The decora tions include narrow lines of black and polychroming in gold, and besides a quaint china cupboard there Is a tea wagon to match. An elegant clock for the boudoir Is soundless and swings In a gold frame, for It is of the flat variety. It stands nicely on desk or dressing table as It measures about four by »ix Inches. Casement cloth Is very desirable for draperies when stenciling is to be the decoration. An up to date smoker’s stand Is of Spanish oak with burnishlngs of gold and the glass tray is pyrex. Fascinatingly colorful and new are East India covers of cotton that are now being used for bed or couch cov ers and curtains. They come In a number of patterns and sizes at much less than formerly. Old English brass pieces recently imported included quaint lamps, can dlesticks and smokers’ stands on spiral mountings in dull finish. • , Dundee Presbyterian Aid. I,adles Aid society of the Dundee Presbyterian church will hold Its regular meeting Friday, October 3, with luncheon served at 1 o’clock. A special rally program will be given. Cooking Club. Mrs. W. H. Wheeler will entertnln members of the Original Cooking club on Thursday of next week. Birth Announcements. A daughter whs born Wednesday to Mr. and Mrs. Rem Hill. Mr. and Mrs. L. A. Cahill announce the birth of a son, Edward, at St. Catherine hospltnl. The Startling Thought to Which Mother Graham Awoke. Dickey's Imperative suggestion to his angry mother that she leave Junior's discipline to me, so astonish ed me that for a second or two I stared open-mouthed at the locked door upon the outer side of which my my mother-in-law had knocked so wrathfully. Woman like my resentment against my husband vanished with the knowl edge that he was not siding with his mother against me In the long vexed question of our child's up bringing. I had thought that ha had believed her version of the small boy’s sobbing because I had sent him away. But now I realized that with me a few minutes before as with her now, he was in masculine fashion, follow ing the line of least resistance, and blaming the feminine merhber of his family who happened to be nearest to him at the time of any unpleasant ness. Th^- knowledge was most comfort ing, and oddly enough served to miti gate my resentment against my mother In-law, a feeling, however, which I knew was eminently Just, for she had been entirely In the wrong in the matter of restraining Junior from obeying me. But, I reminded myself Insistently, she was old, infirm and my hus band's mother, and I listened breath lessly for her reply to Dicky's stric ture, knowing from experience that when the storm had spent Itself T would have to be ^he one to crawl from under the wreck carrying coffee and bandages to the survivors. "Richard—Graham!” The words were almost a shriek, so filled with wrath were they. 'Has it come to tills, that my own son dares tell me to go to my room as If I were a-” A Tense Moment. She paused, patently for a lark of a suitable abased smile and' began again: "But it Is only on a par with the treatment I am receiving. Every body In this house Insults me. even my baby grandchild is taught to call me names-” "Now, mother,” Dicky struck In angrily, yet evidently with an ex asperated sense of his own Impotence upon him, “you know that Isn't so! No one has taught Junior to call you names, Madge would have punished him severely If-” "I gave him all the spanking he needs myself," his mother Interrupt ed, with a sudden ludicrous lessening of emotional tenseness. But in an other second she had hugged her grievance tightly again. "But I'm not going to stay in this house another day,” she declared, her voice sounding the tremulous falsetto note which with her Is always the precursor of tears. "I shall go this very night to-" I held my breath for fear she would utter the atm with which she always had finished this familiar threat. For years whenever she has become angry at Dicky or me. Mother Gra hqm has gone to the home of her daughter, Elizabeth Harrison, or threatened to go there. The fact that she never could stay more than a week in her daughter’s house without a quarrel, never has made any dif ference in either threat or departure. But now Elizabeth Harrison lay be side her husband In a distant ceme tery, nnd though there were reasons why her relatives and best friends knew that It was better for her chil dren that she was no longer In the world, yet that did not banish s cer tain horror from the situation which had Just confronted her old jnother. ‘I I,ove Ton.” “Oh!—oh!” she gnsped after a sec ond's fearful silence. "I forgot. I never can go to Idea's home again And Harriet Is In South America' Where can I go? There Is no place on earth for me to lay my head." To any disinterested auditor who knew the facta, this wall waa simply a combination of temper and hys teria, but I knew that unjust as It was to both Dlrky and me, yet the misery behind the outburst was for the moment very real, and I felt that I could not l*ar It. Yet what to do? From bitter experience I knew that my appearance would only fan the flame of both her wrath and her grief. My little lad aolved tha probleft Drawing close to me, he pulled my dress, and whispered fearfully: 'Granzie feels ao had," he aald. “Is it because I was had to her? Can I make her feel good again?" "Yea, If you run quickly, you can,” I whispered bark. "When mother unlocks the door, run to Granzie, put your armi around her neck and tell her you're eorry you were a hnd boy." I rose and unlocked the door, and he ran pnst me swiftly, going mv instructions one better by breaking Into s well ns bitter sod high pitched as her own, as he threw his arms around her In a tempest of childish grief and terror. “Granzle, Granzle!” he shrieked. “Don't go away! Don't cry! I'll be a good boy. I love you!” Missionary to Speak at Congregational Church. Mrs. G. IV.

" Eczema first broke out on the backs of my hands and anklea in little pimplea that had water In them. Later the pimplea would break open, swell up and turn red. My feet were ao tore that I could not walk, and I had to keep them up In a chair. It itched badly, and the trouble lasted about three (nonths. “ I began using Cuticura Soap and Ointment and they helped me, and after using three cakes of Cuti cura Soap and three boxes of Cuti cura Ointment I was healtd.” (Signed) Miss Anna Springer, R.

The grim specter of death has taken its toll of human life—a husband or brother, father orson, mother or daughter. We all recognize that we cannot live forever. That we must some day pass into the “Great Beyond.” But death is usually vague, indistinct, at a great distance. We don’t see it staring us in the face. We can’t see it standing at our elbow. We cannot recognize the signs that clearly indicate its proximity. But few of us live out our allotted time. Rarely does spirit of youth? Or do your steps drag at times ? These are important questions. But now note the danger signs! You may be living over a live vulcano that is liable to cast you into the cemetery at any time. Read carefully these signs and check them off in your own case. 1. Are your bowels sluggish, irregular? 2. Do you feel tired, doped, with little or no inclina tion to work? posed to be normal neart Deatr 5. Do you have dizzy spells, a sudden feeling of faintness now and then ? 6. Is your digestion poor with a feeling of discom fort in the stomach after meals ? 7. Do you catch cold easily and does this cold settle in the longs and bronchial tubes and remain there for some time ? All these are danger signals more or less serious. They often indicate that you are headed towards the cemetery. You should heed the warning! Right about face! Learn that through exercise wholesome diet advocated by PHYSICAL CULTURE the grim spec ter of death hovering near you can be scared away I You will then have an opportunity to live out your alloted span of years.

It is at times irregular or beyond or under what is sup* An Editorial by Bernarr Macfadden always a harrowing tragedy. It tears at the heartstrings. It brings dumb harrowing misery to those we love. But whether death comes early or late in life, it always casts its shadow on before. There are signs of early death in one’s organism that cannot be mistaken. When we heed these warnings,death can be delayed. The grim specter can be sent about his business. He can be made to look for victims elsewhere. Now sit down and take stock of yourself. Are your eyes clear and bright? Has your skin the color of health? Is your step elastic, vital, and vigor ous? Is your body well poised ?
