It.v MARTHA U.LKX.
Otar Miss Alien: f 11m a senior
fa high school and Intend to become
a teacher In the rural schools.
Just a few months ago t became
nequuintcd with a young boy three
years my aenior and learned to love
him nflcr keeping company vvilli Ij^in
t lil t e months. 1 soon noticed a
change in him and he didn't seem to
,treat me with respect.
\\ ■ ■ broke up and lie started going
villi one of my girl friends. While
going with her he seemed to want to
get my friendship hack. latter lie
broke up with her and started to
I cep company with me again.
And now 1 have become engaged
lo him, but 1 took tills step so slid
denly for I have learned lie talked
liout me to this girl friend.
Oh! Miss Allen, don't think I am
illy for thinking the way 1 do. I
want to do something that's a bene
f.t to me in this world. I have de
i ided to break my engagement amt
forget him forever. 1 don't think 1
.itn* in love at all.
T want to enjoy my girlhood days
and he happy. Don’t you think
someone will come Into my life who
will appreciate my love?
I think I am doing right in qtili
ng this hoy, for I know that I will
.ever he happy. He comes from poor
• uvironnicnt and lie seems to be
aW'ly impoving Please don't forget
in answer my questions Hoping to
e my answer In your column.
P.ROKHN HKARTKD.
It is quite evident that you are
let ip love with your fiance and If
von feel that you could never be
happy with him you should by till
menus breuk the engagement. You
say you have learned that he tallied
About you to your girl friend. Did
you get this information from her?
II is probably that site is not telling
the truth and if this he the ease you
are doing the young man an Injus
tice. You seem to he taking life too
seriously and worrying needlessly
about the future. After nil, you are
only a school girl and one Is apt to
lake love affairs very seriously at
your age. Don’t Imagine that you
will he left art old maid If you give
this young man up. No doubt yon
will have many affairs of the heart
before you meet the right one.

‘"My Husband’s Love”
The Mistake Harriet Hail Malle.
Harriet Bralthwatte looked at me
with the strained ullentlon of a con
scientious pupil trying to grasp a
problenY in arithmetic. 1 saw that
the hypothetical question I had put
to her had caught her fancy and
that she was pondering if.
"You mean.” she said slowly, "that
Edwin has no different admiration
and liking for Katherine than he
would have were she an equally valu
able and faithful masculine assist
ant ?”
"Not exactly," T replied honestly.
"That is partly his reaction to her,
but I think he also regards Kather
ine with the fatherly feeling lhat he
gives all young gills. Did you see
him with Marion tonight?”
Her anguished eyes answered me,
and I hurried on.
"Rut, Harriet, 1 honestly believe,
as l always have, lhat there Is no
shadow of reason for you to imag
ine he lias any sentimental regard fur
i
k ttherine. It Is Miniply Hint she epit
omizes to him "
I stopped confusedly. I whs get
ting into deep water. There were
things which it would ho an imperii*
nemo for me to say to my sister
in law, und 1 had pulled myself lip
on the brink of on© of them.
“The daughter tie never had," she
finished for me in steady tunes, hut
with li?>s pallid amt trembling. “You
need not ijesitate to say it, Margaret.
I have Haiti it to myself a million
times In tb© years \fhh-li have
dragged along since 1 realized Hie
mistake 1 hat! made. Kdwin always
depended on me so much, aiul Ids
splendid career was so \itnl to ins
both I always felt that I could not
take care of him and of children also,
so- for his career I gave up mother
hood. And now—M
Harriet Hegaiiis Her Poise.
Her voice trailed off Into silence,
hut J saw with relief that •die was
regaining the poise which always has
been hers. She would not break
down—that danger was past, and I
ventured the suggestion which has
been in my mind for a long time
whenever I have thought of her prob
lem.
“Have you ever thought of adopt
ing a chiiil—of—children?"
SJi© made a swift gesture of repul
sion.
“1—T can’t, Margaret," she said.
“Children of my own blood or J*M
[ win’s, yes, or even the children of
dear friends—perhaps. Hut there are
ikt Hucii children available. And the
waifs with no background, with the
risk involved of what they might he
com©—it would only be giving our
hegrts for a changeling to tear’." She
paraphrased Kipling's lines with a bit
ter intonation.
“There are Hlizaheth's children, for
instance," she went on. “I could
adore any one of them, especially
Mary. She has such potentialities for
good or evil, that child, and is so
oust iilliilly lovable, imd I don't think
she Is quite understood But of course
her parents would never «lve her
up."
