He and She
(Somerville Journal.)
His look is sad; upon his brow
Wrinkles of anxious care
Are furrowed deep, as if his grief
Was all too great to bear.
His step is slow, his head is bent,
As if his joys were few.
Has he been crossed in love? Oh,
nol
His coal bill's due.
And she how melancholy is
Her mien this afternoon,
As if she felt she had been born
Too late, or else too soon!
Can it be unrequited love
On her has cast its blight?
Oh nol She's wishing she had
skipped
Those devilled crabs last night.

Heart Beats
By A. K.
Of course we have
Nothing against
Unions and things
Which help the men
To get their
Rights,
But we are sure
That they have all
The rights. they need
For they have
Taken all of ours.
But sometimes we think
They go too far,
Especially in composing rooms
Where walking
Delegates
Plain clothes men
Spy on inoffensive
Creatures like us
Who have to go
Out into the
Realm of ink
And forms and
Banks
To assist the
Make-up man in
Leaving out the
Unimportant
Overset
And sometimes we
Like to help him
Mix the type
But we dare not
Touch it
Nor pull out a
Galley containing
Our own stories
Nor roll a table
. Out of the way
Or do anything
That interests us
But the other day
We turned our ankle
And caught a table
To keep from falling
And the table moved
Which is against
The rules of the
Union
And one of those
Abominations
Called a walking ,
Delegate r'something
Saw the whole
Performance
And now we learn
That we are taxed
Ten per cent
Of our salary
Or of what we earn
Or of what we get
Or some other
"Common denominator'
For rolling a table
Which is against
The laws of the
Union. .
It's a great life!

Beatrice Fairfax's Lovelorn Advice
Sensible Girl.
Dear Miss Fairfax, Omaha Bee:
This letter Is going to be, well (sort
of muddled), for I know I shall
have difficulty In writing my
thoughts on paper.
I am 19 and engaged to a man 10
years my senior. I cannot
tpll
whether or not I love him
But r?
never known with another man, and
I know that my trust will never he
misplaced, as it was once before.
(Though not seriously misplaced be
cause I awoke In time.)
But If I do love htm, It is bo dif
ferent from my first love. However,
I couldn't want It like that, I'm
afraid. He seems to be too big to
be loved the same way.
One reason for my doubt. I never
feel absolutely sure that he loves
me, and I can't let myself go un
less I know that he does. And,
Miss Fairfax, I cannot ask him, and
he never told me he did. Terhaps
he thought It wasn't necessary, since
he had asked me to marry him and
I never noticed the omission at the
time.
As he is in France at present, I
have not seen him for about a year,
but, if any difference, I believe I
care more for him than when he
went away.
Both our families approve of the
engagement, and, as he is able to
provide a good home, I think we
will be married soon after he re
turns unless you make me feel that
I do not love him.
I am capable of making a good liv
ing myself and have a good home, so
it is not for a home that I want
him.
What I wish to know Is: Do I
love him or care sufficiently for him
to marry him?
Please answer In Monday, Tues
day, Wednesday or Thursday morn
ing paper or I shall not see the re
ply. Thanking you In advance for ear
ly advice, I am, sincerely,
TROUBLED.
Fulfillment Is never reached In this
life and, therefore, If you love this
man, marry him. The fact that a
man of his temperament (as I un
derstand It) asks you to be his wife
is proof of his love. A great many
men find It difficult to express their
feelings in words and some of those
who express their love freely do so
to many women. Practice makes
perfect, we hear. When he comes
back from France his own character
may be changed. Tell me how you
feel toward him when he returns.
Disagrees With Farm Girl.
Dear Miss Fairfax, Omaha Bee: I
have been reading the discussions
on "Painted Dolls." I wish to say
to the "Farm Girl" that she criticizes
too deeply. I love to cook and it
often falls to my lot. I also like
to look pretty and not make a boy
ashamed of me when I go with him.
By this I mean I use rouge on my
complexion. It does no harm, as
I aee, for a girl to take a little pride
In herself, do you?
Of course, little "Farm Girl," you
probably have a natural rosy com
plexion and I envy you, but why
criticize your less fortunate sisters?
Of course, many girls overdo paint
ing their faces, and these I think
you have reference to In your town.
Do not judge others by a few. My
mother is a cook of the "old school,"
and I have been told that I am, too.
I have also been told by my boy
friends that they respect me be
cause I am a good girl. Can a' man
pay a higher compliment to a
woman than that? To me "no."
Miss Fairfax, I am very anxious to
hear your argument on "painted
dolls." Before closing I wish to say
that there are boys here that
"paint." It is not wholly a woman's
fault, or whatever you may call it.
A GIRL.
Silly, Blue Eyes.
Dear Miss Fairfax, Omaha Bee: I
have come to you for some advice.
I am a girl of 16. I am very popu
lar in my own home town. I have
dark brown hair and blue eyes. I
am also a twin. Do you think a
dark green taffeta would look good
on me and how long should I wear
it? How should I comb my hair?
Is it right to kiss boys good-night
and let them put their arms around
you when walking home with you?

uoy s rais wnen you are not en
gaged? When 1 go to the show all
the boys fight over me to take me
home; isn't it right for me to not
let any one of them bring me home?
I do not believe in the painted up
dolls. The hoy I have been keeping
company with is 17 years old. I
love him and I know he loves me.
He gave me a diamond ring for my
birthday. Was it right for me to
take it?
I hope to see my answer In The
Omaha Bee. BLUB EYES.
P. S. Is my writing very good or
not? If not, how can I imorove it?
i I am in the 12 th grade at school.
Dark green taffeta would become
you, no doubt, because you are a
twin. Wear your dresses as long as
they hold together conserve. Comb
your hair with a clean comb. Never
kiss a boy at night. Your path Is,
indeed, a rough one, if all the boys
are fighting over you. Tour charm
must be irresistible. Your writing
is not good for a girl of your age,
but I do not know how you can Im
prove It with your head so full of
everything but something worth
while.
A (.irl's Opinion.
Dear Miss Fairfax, Omaha Bee:
I am a young girl of 18, a steady
reader of your "Advice to the Love
Lorn." I wonder if all girls of all
classes realize the value of being a
straight, clean woman, not only to
the community, but to their own
selves in the near-future. Don't a
man think more of a woman, wheth
er married or single, if they allow
no privileges and be clean of thought
and mind? A fallen girl is no long
er the "only one" in the eyes of the
man who ruined her. What has
she gnined? Nothing. What has
she lost? Her life, name and
friends. It is her own fault. When
the time comes the right man will
be waiting, so why be ruined?
Girls, don't crave for too good a
time; the slow but sure way Is the
safest and best; am I right. Miss
Fairfax?
I think a little powder is all a girl
needs, but no rouge; let nature tend
to your face. It's true a "painted
doll" draws the man's attention
for a while, but the lower class of
men, who soon grow tired of you.
I'm sure all men Would rather have

a woman for his wife that does not

Men have their faults, such as
gamble, smoke and drink; they re

clean men as well as women for my
friends. . MISS EIGHTEEN.
Ho Needs Decision.
I am a dally reader of your "Advice
to the Lovelorn." You have given
such good advice to so many others
that I have resolved to ask your
opinion of my case,
I am a young man, 18 years of
age, and am deeply In love with a
very attractive girl 17 years of age.
I am now attending a normal school
and will finish my course in two
years. I have the means to support
this dear girl. I think she would be
very much pleased to be my future
wife, and I think she would be very
suitable for my wife. I have been
acquainted with her for the past
seven years.
Her folks are well pleased with
me and my folks with her. Do you
think lt'is fitting and proper for us
to associate with each other?
Would it be objectionable for us to
carry on a correspondence Please
answer this In the morning edition
of The Bee as soon as possible.
Anxiously awaiting a reply, I am,
sincerely yours, A LOVER.
Y'ou are what I should call a neg
ative charaoter, with no decision
and no stability. The girl who mar
ries you will feel like swinging an
ax around your head Just to see If
you will fight. If everything Is so
satisfactory and lovely between you
two and your parents, why bother
me
