Dear Miss Fairfax, Omaha Bee: Your advice to "June" In last night's Bee is splendid. I only llope she heeds your warning; of May and De cember. I married a prominent business man of this city 22 years my senior, we have only been mar ried 4 few years and already he acts different He gives me all the money I want, clothes, etc. I have found' out It's youth and love that means real happiness. I have found the man that means all that for me. My love is returned, and while I be lieve in divorce, I hardly think I am justified in seeking it. .1 have only found out too late the differ ence of true love, and by being flat tered at having 'a man so much older chose me from all of the rest.' Think wel) before you decide, June. BROKEN-HEARTED. Yours is one of the tragedies of "May and December" in wedlock. Men, many of them, have the very wrong idea that money can buy the love of women, and they offer their wealth in the marriage market for the woman they select as a mate. Girls too often, without realising what they are doing, sell themselves to these men, firmly believing that they can be true to them and "live happily ever after." But youth meets youth, sooner or later then there is trouble. The man pays the price of his folly by losing what little af fection his wife may have had for him. He realizes then that money cannot buy love. The woman pays the price of her folly by being mar: ried to one man, who gives her no grounds for divorce, and the while loving another. This Is the tragedy of "May and December." Misguided Girl. Dear Miss Fairfax, Omaha Bee: I am IS and awfully cute. All the fellows are just crazy about me. My eyes and hair are very dark, but what I want your advice about is a man 1 met at the picture show two years ago. I got to know him be cause he sat down beside me. He was not bashful, for he tried to hold my hand. I did not object. He was very nice and when he went out he pressed a (1 bill In my hand. We have met lots of times since and he always gives me money. Is it risrht for me to keep this money and spend it? He is a married man, but his wife is a mean old thing and he Is going to be divorced, and when he Is he wants to marry me. I think I love him ' very much, and would It be wrong if I marry him? I hope you will not make fun of me, because other girls I Know ao the same, and your answer means very much to me. Please answer in Thursday eve ning's Bee. Lovingly. CUTEY. Spring Is the established season for house' cleaning. Tour Ideas need a thorough renovation and this Is a good time to start the work. You are wrong, wrong, wrong; wrong in your conduct and wrong in your ideas. You were wrong to allow a strange man to make advances to you In the first place, and you made a great mistake in accepting money from him. Return all the money he has given you and see the man no more. His story about a mean wife and a pending divorce la the cry of a sneak and a coward. Mar riage which arises from such filth ta robbed of Its sweetness In the be ginning and happiness dies before it is born. Readjust your Ideas about yourself while you are improving your conduct. You may have the attractiveness which goes with youth, but I Judge you have encouraged compliments and men have gratified you. No one has a monopoly, or even a small corner, on beauty or charms There are too many of us for that, and our ideas of what con stitutes beauty are too varied. You need mora advice than I can give you here. Go to some good woman friend, or a man who is truly your friend, and put your case. . Sister's Love. Dear Miss Fairfax, Omaha Bee: This may be an unusual, question, but please tell me how much or how great should be a sister's love for her brother? My relatives say I love my brother too much, do too much for him. I don't think so, for he loves me Just as much as I love him. Would like the opinion of the read ers, and also your opinion, Miss Fair- lax. Thanking you for ybur splendid advice, I remain, MARY MACK. I suppose there Is such a thing aa too great a love for a brother that is, for his own good or yours. Some times love becomes a hlnderance rather than a help. Each soul is an individual and should spread Its wings and "grow." If your love hampers your brother In his career, or if it blocks his opportunities then I think it is unwise to give free reign to your affections. . best care of everything; would like a place on farm, as we are used to farm lire; a good, home-like place; no cnuaren; not less man 30 a month. , I know I am capable of earning more, but would start In for that .

Dear Miss Fairfax: I am a con stant reader of your "Lovelorn Column," so now I come to you for advice as others do. I am going with a young man here, just started going with him three weeks ago, though I have known him for years. I was once engaged to his pal, but during the holidays of last year I broke it for I did not love him. This young man I am going with now says he loves me, and last night he' ask to kiss me, but I rejected and he said he could never be satisfied until he could kiss me. Now, Miss Fairfax, do you think his love could be true In so short a time as we have been going to gether. He has never spoken of marriage; do you think Just his say ing he loved me would consider us engaged? Is It wrong to kiss them? Always this man stood between myself and my fiance, that Is the reason for our broken engagement. I am 21 years old and this man I love la 23, do you think there is enough difference In our ages ,to marry? My mother think! the man I marry should be at least eight years older than I. Your advice would be very much appreciated in the morning edition of . The Bee as we do not receive the evening edition. PEGGY POL. As I have told so many of my readers "love is tricky," at least love's next of kin is tricky. There is no cpemical test for the pure ness or trueness of love. Keep your kisses for another day. The fact that he says he loves you is no proposal of marriage nay, nay, Peggy Pol be not deluded. Two years Is suffi cient, but I think you are both too young to burden yourselves with matrimony. A. L. C. of Ashland: I have re ferred your letter to our legal de partment and your questions will be answered on the editorial page under the legal heading. Miss F. K. You know life has different rules for different people in various things, yet there are some regular outstanding features that apply to everyone. There is no age where the world says: "Now, little girl you are old enough to go with boys." If you grow up as a normal, American girl with boys and girls as friends, there will be a natural transition in some ways,' but still that feeling that they are your friends. If you will think of them normally, In this way, when the right man comes, as he will, you need not worry what you will say when he asks you to marry him. There is no reason why you need say "no" when you feel "yes." It has. caused many heartaches among others. In these days an eighth grade education for girls is not suf flclent if she is able to have more. Do not lose the pleasure of the pres. ent and each' stage of your life in your eagerness to reach for what is to come. ... A Truo Lover -Cupid usually cares little for the exigencies of bust ness and doesn't temper his arrow to the convenience and comfort of the man of affairs. Take my advice, go and ask her to marry' you now. for your business would pot be half so Important without her. It will be there when you return. Gingham In New ' Lines ' By GERTRUDE BERESFORO. Red, white and black checked gingham makes this smart morning frock, which depends upon the novel use of its own materials laid on the bias to effect an unusual trimming.

I. : hi Long Work Days Detrimental to Health All States Urged to Place Industries On the Basis Of Eight-Hour Day A mass of evidence is available both In this country and in Europe indicating the serious effects of long working hours upon the health of women. This evidence, gathered for the most part by expert govern ment investigators, has been recog nised by the supreme court of the United states as justifying the use by the several states of their police power to enforce legislation limiting hours of work. The supreme court, in a brief presented to an Oregon court, which led to a decision declar ing constitutional a law of that state limiting hours of labor, holds that "health is the foundation of the state. No nation can progress if its work ers are crippled by continuous over exertion. The loss of human energy due to excessive working hours is a national loss and must inevitably re sult in lowering the nation's pros perity. , In the United States, as a whole, a growing tendency exists toward a shorter working day. The world's experience of the evil effects of over work upon the general welfare has led the majority ot the states of the union to enact laws limiting; the hours of women's employment. Only six or the 48 states have tailed to place tome limitation upon the length of the working day of worrfcn. STOMACH UPSET?

Phone Doug. 2043. In 20 of the states the hours of work hSve been limited to eight or nine. But in those states which have not adopted this important measure of protection for the health of their citizens, abnormally long hours of employment for women is made possible. In a survey of hours and working conditions for women in one such state recently madei by the women in industry service, United States Department, of La bor,, it was found that in 30 per cent of the establishments investi gated the regular working day, without overtime, was 10 hours or more for 2,817 (or 23 per cent) of the women employed in the shops visited. Specific instances of over time legally possible in this state showed women working as long as 65 hours in a week in one factory; 73 hours in one cannery; 84 hours in another; 75 hours and a seven day week in one manufacturing plant; and 88 hours and 40 minutes in an establishment manufactif ing automobile parts. With the growing complexity of the problem of women's employ ment and with the increase in their numbers in industry, it is becoming increasingly important that state deoartments of labor should be equipped to enforce laws regulat ing their employment, as well as to study their needs and observe new conditions. With the purpose of accomplish ing this, the women in industry service is recommending that wow en should be placed in responsible positions. as members of industrial boards, or" as chiefs of divisions di rectly responsible to the boards, or to the labor commissioner. Siberians Appreciative. Warm appreciation of the relief work conducted by the American Red Cross in Siberia is now appear ing almost daily in the Siberian newspapers, which, when the Red Cross workers first appeared, seem ed apprehensive that the Americans were bent on some torm ot commer cial conquest As the relief trains were made up' at Vladivostok and sent west with hundreds of thous ands of dollars worth of supplies of all kinds, however, the press inves tigated. Soon the relief supplies were distributed at Akaterinburg and the Chelyabinsk, and it was not long before the nooulation was in formed oh American Red Cross methods, with the result that "the co operation of the natives with the or ganization is steadily and rapidly growing.
