Dear MIbs Faii fax: I am , 20 and hav been going out for two and a hallNyeari with a man of 23 years, who Ifl much in lov with me and who wishes to mar. y me. He ii good natured, ambltloua, and I care for htm very much, but he is not In a poaUlon flnanrlally to support a wife and may not he for two or three yt-ais. He objects st'rrnusly to my going out with other men, but I think I should go out and enjoy life while I'm young. I have explained to blm, but he Insists that I should not go out with other men, and says that I do not care for him if I have Intentions of going with other men, which I do not want to make him believe. J-1- I can understand that you do not want to make yourself conspicuous by going about entirely with a young man who la not In a position to marry you. A great many girls lt tike circumstances do go out with other men. But I feel that If one mrfn Is occu pying your heart. It Is mercenary and cold iiKioflfd to go about with other men merely i '.civ sc they - can buy you social dlver-s'i--ri e-id protect yo'u from gneslp. I think imchf muTiimise by going about occa sionally I;- :a'-ii'-9. but I honestly cannot Ma how h girl who loves one man can find vny pleasu -r in going out with othera. Wait ing for a man Is not easy for a girl. And r am not a bi-lievei; In long engagements, however, the question of long engagements ;s a personal matter which every girl muat settle fo herself. Waiting Is no eas ier for him thnn for you, and If you care for him unaeliishly you ought to lighted his -a ? Broad-minded indeed in its attitude toward fashion is the stole above, Jut it isn't by itself in that; there will be many stoles quite as generous to keep it company. This one is of ermine, stopped from gfling to even greater lengths by a row of ermine tails on each end. The muff is of the new oval "cantaloupe type, and, in common with other new arrivals, it is trimmed on the lower side with ermine tails. Furs, even .without their usual summer hibernation, come out with all sorts of new ideas about fur physiology. The muff above, of moleskin and ermine, has a fringe of ermine tails across its apron, and was so generous with itself little seemed left to make a collar, so the moleskin neckpiece has to be very close to make ends meet. The brown velvet hat has a jet dragon to guard the crown. Capes made tentative littie monies at the mode this winter, and fashion encouraged them with bits of favor until she trapped them as neatly as the hunter trapped the animal to make this Kolinsky cape. So now fashion makes the most of her catch, and capes will be admitted this win-ter-,in all the best circles. This very handsome Kolinsky cape at the right is an especially good circle which falls almost to the elbows. TALKS TO THE WOMEN AT THE DEY CONVENTION. (Wrtrude Aiken, tIorothy Bingham.

Days When the Friend is Dearest By FORTUNE FREE. , "What do you think of Mrs. X?" a young lady friend asked me the other day, and I replied that I considered Mrs. X a very nice woman. Isn't it the ordinary thing to say of people if you have no objection to them? But she wasn't satisfied. "No; but what do you think of her, really?" she asked. She is a young lady who can be very serious at time, and now, when I looked at her, I read something in her eyes that told me she was ask ing me a serious question. She was in earnest about Mrs. X. Her ques tion was one of those that suddenly load one with a responsibility as to how one answers them. They are abominably disagreeable if you can't say much in favor of the person in quired about. Fortunately, I felt none of that embarrassment now. "Mrs. X is one of the best women, and one of the truest and wisest I ever knew," I answered. . She gave a big sigh of relief nd her face brightened. The little cloud of anxiety.had passed away from it. "I am so glad," she cried. ' I like her myself, and somehow somehow I thought she might be a friend. One gets to know such a lot of people, doesn't one? But there's something something with many of them that that" "That closes vour lips when vou would like to speak about the things that are of importance and dearest to vour I broke in as she stammered. She nodded her head The person to whom one can speak about such matters is a rarity how rare we discover the longer we live. Early in life we flatter ourselves we shall make hosts of friends who will 'e intensely interested in us. Even f they haven't the sense to be so. we ell ourselves that we cannot do with out them. A friend of Sir Charles Russell, the celebrated lord chief justice, told me that upon one occasion, when he heard someone sing a song about the famous miller who used to boast, "I care for nobody and nobody cares for me," and whistled his independence Sir Charles expressed the opinion that that miller was one of the most Research Club Lectures.

" -1 '1 1 Lobster a La Francaise I lunatic mortals he had ever heard of. "But perhaps a good many of us are like that at one time of our lives," he added. "We find out what foois we have been later." We are meant to care for somebody and that somebody should care for us. The solitary person-goes mad and the lonely heart withers in bitterness. Sympathy is a necessity of our nature and we discover it in time. In the meantime, though we scrape along pretty well without much of it. The merely "nice" person suffices during days when the sun is shining and all is well; and it is astonishing how "nice" some people can be, isn't it? Christie Murray once went to din ner at the house of a friend who had a wife extraordinarily skilled in con fectionery, the blot upon the din ner was that she had paid so much attention to the cakes that she had forgotten the meat and potatoes. It was not a satisfactory meal tor a per son with an appetite. It left, Murray declared, "a yearning for something." There are times when we lack actual sincerity and honesty, and when the mere jam of niceness won't do, "just as well." In times of stress we would, as school boys say, "swop" a good many of our nicest acquaintances for one sincere friend for one with whom we can exchange confidences and sympathy. Could not we help them, and could not they help us? For underneath the appearance of mere niceness men and women are, as Mark Twain remarked, queer things more real and better than they ap pear on the surface. Most people would not for the world allow you to suspect that they are halt as "roubled as they really are, or thai they are half as capable of feelir for others as they are. Many are, with regard to the con cealment of their troubles much like two old diplomatists of whom I once heard DeBlowitz, the great Journalist, tell the story. They were it meet at a eception and each resolved it was nost important to impress the other Each squeezed himself into the mos) imposing uniform he possessed. It was horribly uncomfortable, but it 'lad to be done. Then they met. They stood engaged in conversation for over half an hour, and neither would confess to the other that he was dying tj sit down. In the end they parted to seek their carriages, and went home to bed to recover. Each was a martyr to gout, and neither would confess it. They reviled one another bitterly afterward.

This shell fish, if it has been cooked alive, as it ought to be, will have a stiffness in the tail, which, if gently raised, will return with a spring. In order to be good, lobsters should be weighty for their bulk; if light they will be watery, and those of the me dium size are always the best. .They should be broad across the tail. In boiling lobsters, the appearance of the shell will be much improved by rubbing over a little butter or olive oil on 'being immediately taken from the pot. Take one boiled lobster, separate the body from the tail, break off the great claws and crack them at the joints without injuring the meat and split the tail in halves. Pick the meat from the sheel and cut it up into small pieces; put in four tablespoonfuls of while stock, two tablespoonfuls of cream and pounded mase and cayenne to taste into a stewpan, add the lob ster and let it simmer gently for six minutes. Serve it in the shell, which must be nicety cleaned, and (tarnish with parsley and lemon quarters. A Brannew Beverage ON TAP AND IN EOTTLES.
