Dear Miss Allen: "I am 13 years old. I go to a few dances and partiei., and of course meet a lot of people. I haven't any difficulty in attracting young men, but the main point is 1 can't hold them. "Not so long ago I went to a party and met a young man who treated me very nicely and who seem ed to like me. He took me home and asked to see me again. "The next time I met him he treat ed me just as nicely as before, and we had a splendid evening. But when we arrived at my home he asked to kiss me good night and I allowed him to. Please understand I am not proud of thi- fart, but am just stating plain 1 ruth?. I don't know whether It's the usual thing with young men, but any how he didn’t ask to see me again. "Well, I certainly was broken tip over it. but felt also that I had learn ed something that I wasn't going to forget very soon. I have heard pee pie 'talk from experience,’ so I took it for granted that this was part of inv experience. "Recently I met another young man who made the usual fuss over! me—they all do the first few times— but our romance was short-lived—the same old story all over again. He asked to kiss me, and I—remember Ing the other Incident—refused. T thought I had done right, but much to my dismay he just brought me home and forgot all about me, and l found out that I hadn't done the right thing, after all! "What In the world is right'.' Whether I kiss them or whether 1 refuse. I'm wrong. "Vour answer to this question hap pens to mean a whole lot not only to me but to a lot of other girls." PCZZRED. Then it wasn't the kiss that count ! «*d either way was it "Puzzled'.' ' One young man kissed—and he lost interest. The second man your refused to kiss—and he also lost interest. Whatever may be the secret, of bolding a young man's interest, kiss ing Is obviously not the answer to the problem. Bo it is wise and safe to save your kisses until you know they are deserved and will be appreciated Re very careful, indeed, not to al low yourself to he swept away by silly sentimentality. For Instance. John asks you to a dance. Don't jump to the conclusion that he is deeply interested or in love witjz you. Aery likely John couldn't think of an* other girl be knew who was not err gaged for that particular night so he asked you. The appeal of personal daintiness Is not to be neglected. It's important not only to "doll up"— which aftei all means simply looking your most r harming, pleasing self—hut also to keep fairly fragrant with healthful freshness and cleanliness. Above all. lie yourself. Then you'll feel comfortable and have a good time and so will John. A wise wo man advises, "Be what you are as well as you know how." Carefully studied tricks of vamp ing are not worth while. They repel as often as they attract. And their appeal is never lasting. J. T.; No, you should be respectful but not feel bound by advice from your mother-in-law. Doesn't it seem odd to you thai mother who is loved and reverenced for her unselfishness and wisdom wherever there are sons and daugh ters. falls from her pedestal the mo ment she becomes mother-in-law? There's tio denying it mothers In law are not popular. Of course there are notable exrep lions—you know them and I know them. If mother used her head as well ns her heart she would realize that daughter when she marries Is a full grown woman and entitled to her own life. What If John and Dorothy do make mistakes? AVhat If their little apart ment gets furnished with s. lot of clap trap or with extravagant furnl Hire that may prove a nuisance rati' cr than useful? John and Dorothy will know better next time. And. afi " o*e their own apartment, not « it ie * marvelous help some times when It s sought and wanted Rut unsought advice Is a drug on the market. No one wnnte It. and nobody Is going to follow It.

I Hugh Orantland that lay in my hands. Not that there was any memory of speech or word in all my assocla-1 tlon with Hugh Orantland which would have caused me to lower my ey«*s ever so slightly before either Junior's clear gaze or his father's critical one. Hut there were memories of that unusual friendship, which, while altogether innocent, were yet strangely disturbing, even poignant, tf 1 accepted as truth the letter In my hands. I felt that I must drag them out from the recesses of my soul, face, them squarely and forever banish them unless I could find in them some spark of an Idea which might aid me in solving the mystery of the letter Major Orantland had written me. My little lad's voice sounded again. "Hut I want you, mamma!" The pleading tones tugged at my heart insistently. But something oven more important than my deaire to think out ray problem, was now In I volved. I am trying to teach Junior to know that teaming will never secure (he granting of a request, and my voice was firm though tender, a* I answered him. If You Tease-'' "Junior," I said slowly and clearly, "It you tease, I shall not come to play with you all day. But if you obey me now, it will be only a few minutes before I come to you. There was quite a silence of n few seconds while Junior evidently welch ed the pros and cons of my ultima tum. Then with an audible little sigh which came near to breaking down my determalion, he accepted the In evitable. "All right," he said soberly, and I heard his reluctant little feel walk ing toward the stairs. A sudden resentment toward the insensate letter in my hand shook me. Because of it, I had shut my idolized little lad away from me the first time In his life—then with a sudden iemorseful flash of memory, I faced the truth that my taby boy would have been forever lost to me had It not been for the great heart and 1 brain ami dogged persistence of the j loan who bad penned the strange | teller to me. I had forgiven Dicky long ago for h's port In that awful time, hut I could not forget that it was In* ab tone* on a motor outing with Kdlth Fairfax which mude It possible for Grace Draper to spirit away our laby. And I had had plenty of oppor tunity to contrast tnat upgligence with the tireless, furious energy of Hugh Orgntland when he had rushed to us upon the receipt of my message to him—an enprgy that never hud flagged untit he put Junior In my arms. Then, only wailing to nwure me that every time he changed his ad dress In hlj adventurous life he would send me a card, he had gone out of my life quietly, unobtrusively. 1 had not seen him Since, and so absorbed hud I become in my own affairs that 1 lipd not realized the cessation of the postal cards some months before the receipt of this let ter. Surely I owed this tried friend to make some effort to pierce the veil shrouding bis exit from my life. Yet, where to begin. I had heard the stories concerning his mysterious past in which proudly lay the explan ation of the letter, but the only re ference [ ever had heard Hugh Grant land make to hi* home or pro pi*—I how i leai ly the memory came bark I in mrl A Wild K«»e Memory.

There was nothing in that memory, however, to give me any clue to any family c .ndltions surrounding him.
