Problems )
Dear Martha Allen: I have been
going with it young man for nearly
u year. He Is very nice and thought
ful in all cases but one, I think. That
is about dances. He doesn't dance
qnd so never goes or offers to take
me to any dance unless he takes a
ftotlon that he wants to go to listen
to the music. Now Martha Allen, I
love to dance. During the winter I
didn't miss going but X do now'. He
tall* me that I can go If I wish, but
that I can't go with any other hoy
or even go to supper with one. Sure
ly he doesn't think that I could go
alone. What should I do?
Do you think it right for- me to
tell him that it is his place to take
Die and if he doesn't that I shopld
go with another boy? Would let
Such a matter break us up? I am at
a loss. READER.
As far as I can see, you will have
fo make a choice between this mnn
er dancing. Girls have been known
fo make such sacrifices for the men
they love. There seems to he a set
1 fish strnln In this man of yours that
might cause you a great deal of
tjrouble over more serious problems
litter on. Ho should not dictate to
you about going with other boys un
less you are engaged to him. Assert
yourself before your likings are all
lost and you end In unhappiness. If
your love for him is strong enough
to make you forget your own likes,
then you might be happy with him.
The dancing question Is a small one
Qompared to the principles back of
your arguments.
Janet: It Is really the woman’s
dart to suggest that a man call upon
her. But if a man sees a certain
woman a good deal at the homes of
fi iends, It is permlpsahlo for him to
ask to call.
Helen: Wedding gifts msy bo
uhanged unless they have some per
sonal significance or sentiment at
tached. You must consult the giver.

“My Husband’s Love”
v __1-/
What Mrs. Marks Hail to Say to
Mamie and Madge.
"Am I eternally discredited'.’" Harry
Underwood queried with a smile at
Lillian and me. Then I saw his eyes
narrow quickly as he Baw Mamie’s
head bowed against the chair back,
hut he gave no other sign that he
noticed anything unusual in the men
tal ntmosphere.
"Almost," Lillian retorted. "Know
ing your record, we were about to
call out the police when you knocked.
We figured you were In one of three
places-”
"Morgue, hospital or police sta
tion?” he Interrupted grinning Impu
dently at her. "That's what it Is
to have u. reputation for punctuality
—"he suddenly changed his jocular
tone to a dolorous whine as he turned
to me—"if you ever depart from it,
there's a panic among your friends
and relatives.”
I interpreted the flicker of Lillian’s
eyes toward Mamie correctly, remem
bering that she had asked me to take
the girl into the kitchen while she
talked to Mr. Underwood.
"I think you should he disciplined,”
I told him smiling, "but Lillian is
past mistress of that art, so I'll leave
the task to her. Come, Mamie. I
want you to go to the kitchen with
me.”
He wan standing nearest me, and
his impudent whisper "Lucky Ma
mie!” was, X am sure, unheard by
either the girl or Lillian.
1 gave no sign that I had heard
him, but crossed quickly to Mamie,
who had arisen obediently, hut had
stumbled when she attempted to walk,
because she was still childishly hiding
her face in the crook of her arm.
I put my hand" upon her arm and
guided her through the door con
scious that Harry Underwood was
making absurd laughter-provoking
gestures in the pretense that I was
an animal tamer In a circus. IA1
lian shut the door upon his nonsense,
and I swiftly turned upon Mamie.
"There is no one to see.you now
but me," I told her curtly, "so take
your arm down and walk along here
as you should.”
Mamie Is Terrified.
She dropped the arm promptly, but
kept her eyes obstinately lowered
nor did she speak, even after we had
reached the kitchen, and she had
seated herself in the chair I placed
for her. Her silence was distinctly
pleasing to me, however, for I had
no knowledge of what Lillian had
said to her, and I would have had to
weigh my words most carefully had
the girl tried to question me.
I knew that Lillian's "20 seconds”
were figurative ones, so I did not ex
pect an immediate summons back to
the living room, and made myself as
comfortable as possible in the rocking
chair we had brought down. There
was a creak in it. and though I stop
ped rocking after the first raucous
sound or two, I was too late to keep
my neighbor In the next room from
hearing it through the thin partition.
I heard the sound of slippered feet
i striking the floor—then the opening
of her door and the patter of the
! feet up the passage to my kitchen.
Mamie’s face filled with terror, lifted
at the sound, snd she put out her
; hand In childish supplication to me.
"She's awful mad by me,” she
| quavered. "Don't let her hit me."
"You'll have no trouble if you be
i have yourself," I assured her coldly,
for I realized the necessity of keep
ing Mamie terrified, though pity for
the frightened girl, which I fiercely
' dubbed mandlln, was fast taking
possession of me.
Mrs. -Marks passed outside the
door, and gave a low knock. As I
opened the door, she curiously peered
past me into the room, and I smoth
ered a desire to laugh as I saw dis
appointment in her transparent face.
She patiently had hoped that I was
entertaining Mr. Underwood in the
kitchen and that she would have a
chnncs to see him again.
Then she saw Mamie shrinking as
far as she could out of sight and her
eyes lightened with subconscious,
but very real delight at the chance
to vent her chagrin without betray
ing the cause of it.
"Did You See the Man?"
"So you're down here, now, are
you?" she snarled advancing Into

"It’s a lucky thing for you Mis'
