Dear Miss Fairfax: I kept com pany with a young man for a short time last Bummer and from the start of our acquaintance he tiefcan to pro fess his love for me. But I only eared for him as a friend and 'told him so. But he was so serious that I thought best to quit him and go with others. I did, and he became very ani?ry and wrote me a cross letter and stated that If I did not care for him he could not endure to live here and would leave town, so he left, but never ceased writing to me and professing his love for me. I never write except to ask him to forget me, but he writes every few days just tho same, just to express his Insane love, as he calls it. Now, as I have told you. T like him as a- friend, bpt don't feel that I could love him enough to marry him. ' ' Please advise me whether I should write him a cold letter and refuse him to ever see me again, or should I listen to his letters and treat him nice in hopes he will get over his silly love for me later on? A friend wishes me to also ask if you think a girl should marry rr.an her age. or whether he should be five or ten years older. BETTY. Whatever advice I might give you negardinff this young man would be wrong, because he is wrong him self. He is evidently not disposed to accept your verdict, but wishes to ereate .excitement and exaggerated feeling over the affair. Try letting him entirely alone. That would leave your record clear anyway. There is no hard and fast rule about the age of a man a girl should marry. ' Usually a man is a year or two or three older, which seems de sirable because a gin Is supposed to be more mature for her years than a man. People vary, however, and a girl should be governed by her regard for a man rather than by his age. Two: Like many other matters, this one of where a man should walk when with two omen, is Just one of opinion. The highly proper would say not to make a sandwich of a man. but to have him walk on the outside. This follows out the old theory, of a man walking on the outside, to protect the women he accompanies. You will more com monly find, however that when a man ia with two women, he will walk between them. The latter then is the more common custom, the former the more strictly correct. Again, strictly speaking, a bed room is the better plac for per sonal photographs, but how sorry I am you and your wife can't agree without argument on the placing of a photograph. Better have it in any room of your house than have any unpleasantness about it. There are relative values in life and harmony Is of much greater value than the placing of a picture, isn't It?

A building site at Seventeenth and Jackson streets was purchased at the beginning of the club year for $.50,000. and more than half the sum has been paid.

The "syrup" part is usually plain sugar syrup. To make tae best pine cough remedy that money can buv, put 2 ',4 ounces of Pinex in a pint bottle, and fill up with home-made sugar syrup.

And he kucw that mukrats lived tinder its banks. While as for meadow mice well, Tctcr Mink had surprised many a one swimming in the brook. If it hadnt been for the meadow mice, perhaps he wouldn't have visited the brook so often. Even in winter Master Meadow Mouse- just had to have his cold dip now and then. So he ran one o! his many snow tunnels to the brook, making a little opening that led un der the ice, where the water had fallen away and left a cavern. Just because there was skating for John nie Green on top of the brook, it mustn't be supposed that Master Meadow Mouse wasn't going to have a swim when he wanted one. When I'ctcr Mink wandered along a stream m winter, lie prctcrrea to travel under the ice, ' rather than walk upon the upper side of it.

Before he crept from the end of his tunnel, he stuck his head outnd looked up and down and all around. He peeped under the bank of the brook. He even stared into the water.
