T, 4 ft i ti 1 Problems That Perplex Answered by ' BEATRICE FAIRFAX - Marrying a Cousin. .. lear Miss Fairfax, NOmaha Bee: I am 20 years old and am in love with a cousin four years my senior. I have been with him since child hood. I know he cares for me, but acts in a ort of Ufothorly way. He is leaving to stay a year. He prom ised to write often, but still has not r;entioned anything to me to make me believe he cares for me. I can't get my childhood ideal out of my mind. What would you ad vise me to do? L. ft. Though ' modern science has something to say for the other side, I think it has not yet been proved that cousin-marriages are right or vi8t I don't neo why you shoJld feel that your cousin cares for you in any but the brotherly fashion you t;uy he shows, of being fond of you. -1 am fairly certain that once he is away a littler strength of character will help you to conquer what seems both a one-Bided and an ill-advised love. , They. Culled Her "Gerty." Dear Miss Fairfax, Omaha Bee: I worked down at the canning fac tory this summer and all the young toys called me Gerty. They are an crazy about me, but why is It they never ask to go with me I'll soon bo 35, but everyone says I don't look a day over 20; what can I do to attract the boys attention so they will go with me? G. B. - What kind of boys do you want to attract? If you mean the good, industrious kind who make the right sort of husbands, then I would aa vire you to conduct yourself respect ably and modestly, keeping yourself tidy and ,ln general exhibiting the qualities which a man looks for in a good wife. I would tell you also to be pleasant and jolly, except that I do not think you need that advice. Evidently that is why the young boys liked you and called you Gerty. I wish all girls knew that friendli ness on the part of boya does not mean a'desire to "beau" herl&round. The boys doubtless liked you as a good, Jolly friend. Why spoil it by injecting a sentimentality into the affair which they do not feel? something about your personality that Is very unattractive. No out sider can say with assurance or cer tainty. A Worthless Woman. Dear Miss Fairfax, 'Omaha Bee: I had been goin$ about with a girl for two years, and asked her to be my wife. She consented,, and said we would marry as soon as I could start a home. I began to save and let her bank the money for me. When $250 had been accumulated phe said her love had grown cold and she had decided not to marry me, but she has not yet returned my money. , . I still- love her, but do not know what to do. ENSIGN. You might charge the money up to profit and loss and decide that it was a lucky escape to get rid of the Birl as cheaply as this. She Isn't worthy. I suppose she's a calculat ing adventuress. Don't fight her f ir the money. Be glad you learned to save, and be still gladder that jou aren't married to a woman who is proving herself so unworthy Lecture-Recital Mrs. Marx Obendorfer of Chi cago, chairman of music for the General Federation of Women's clubs, will be in Nebraska the last week of October. She will appearon the program of the Nebraska State federation at Fremont and will also give a lecture in Omaha under the auspices of the ' Omaha Woman's I , club and the Tuesday Musical. Her Omaha engagement is for Wednes day afternoon, October 27, at 3:30 o'clock, at the Y. W. C A., and her Fremont late Thursday evening following. Kiddies' Diet When" the child has reached the age of 3 and his diet is gradually enlarged, all kinds of simple food may be served in studied variety, as children either rapidly tire of the same form of nourishment or grew to like only a few favorite dishes. The most substantial meal should be served in the middle of the dav. Fruit in some form is essential to expanding consf'tutions and should be served daily. Stewed prunes, apples, figs, baked apples and other cooked fruits can vary the winter diet, while fresh fruits, provided they agree with the little one, are plentiful during other seasons. As the pudding is generally a favorite nursery dish, care must be taken to prepare it well cooked and light. One very wholesome custard for Master Three-Year-old is made by pouring about six ounces of milk on a well beaten egg and mixing m a teaspoonful of , sugar. Stir with a wooden spoon, but do not allow it . j boil or it will curdle. Happiness at Stake. Dear Miss Fairfax,' Omaha Bee: I am 23 and live , with my father and sisters. I never went out with ' any boy friends before my mother's death, but since I have met a, young man for whom 1 care a great deal and he has asked me to marry him. I have not given him my answer,- as my sister (who Is three years older than I) does not care for him. 1 know I am really In love with hint and know that he is the only one who can make me' happy. In the face of all this should I sacrifice ,smv life's 'happiness for my family's fske ? ,- ... PEGGIE. At 23 you arei&ld enough to know. ur own mmd. Tour sister Is not thinking of marrying this young man you are. Unless there is some seri ous objection to the young man's character, I don't think you owe it to your Bister, or to any one else in yiur family, to let her prejudice come between yo'i and your love. ; Is" It a Case of Conceit?-. Dear Miss Fairfax, Omaha Bee: I am 18 and sood looking. Many times when at a dance I notice that young men are attracted to me and take mo out for a dance, but they do not ask me for another dance, although I am a good dancer. All the boys I know call me Laughing Brown Eyes, but they do not ask me to go out , with them. Please tell me what to do, as I do hate being left out of things. Please don't-think I throw myself at the men. LAUGHING BROWN EYES. Possibly you don't dance or talk as well as you imagine. Your opin ion of yourself is rather a high one. You may make others feel this and nothing can be less attractive than conceit unleess it Is ill-grounded conceit! Perhaps you make too much effort to please. Perhaps you do all the talking. Perhaps there is ' ' Watch Our , Windows At All Times Danderine is "Beauty-Tonic" Imrnediately after a "Danderine" massage, your hair takes on new fife, lustre and won drous beauty, appearing twice as heavy and plentiful, because each hair seems to fluff and thicken. Don't let your hair stay lifeless, color less, plain or scraggly. You, too, want lots ,of long, strong hair, glistening with beauty. A'35-cent bottle of delightful "Dandeyne" freshens your scalp, checks dandruff and falling hair. This stimulating "beauty-tonic" gives to thin, dull, fading hair that youthful brightness and abundant thickness All Drug Counters! aiiiiiiiiiMiniiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiMiiiitiiiiiiiiiiiuiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiuiimiiiQijQjjjjTJ.ILJIgLJJ QQ iiiiiiiiiiniriiiiiiiiiiiiiiniiiiniiiiifipiiiiiiiiiiiiniiiuiiiiniiiiifciii' 5 Phone Tyler 3000 for details of our Record or i Machine Approval Plan Omens For ' good luck the negroes plant the breast bone of a goose' under an apple tree when the moon is full.

Cape The golf cape is coming back this winter tp its own ; after a lapse in popularity of many; years. It is com ing back even more comfortable for the wearer and more, charming for the beholder.- The pendant . hood . with -plaid lining which was once a striking feature of many golf capes, is now replaced by the new grctt collar whose enveloping folds in- . crease its warmth and its becoming ncs.v . , A plain, soft material is generally used with a self-colored silk lining or with no lining at all, if a rougher goods is chosen. The color runs the scale from oxford gray to navy blue, with many, soft tones and- pleasing blends in ; greens, and browns as well. The hat that goes so well with the cape is small and often of the same material.- "It is ' left to the plaid skirt and the bright ribbon at the neck of the sport blouse' to tyvc variety and vividness.

I HE Brunswick Method of Reproduction gained instant 1 and wide-spread public favor because it enriches the . tone qualities of all records. For this alone it is adored-by -artists and approved by the hypercritical. It embodies the true principles of tone reproduction and complies with the established laws of accoustics in projecting kme. Two revolutionary factors, among others, essentially differ- ent from otter phonographs, make this possible.- They are the Ultona and the Tone Amplifier. The Ultona Plays All Records The Ultona a product of creative genius enables one to play all makes of records on the Brunswick. , Not a combination contrivance or complex mechanism, yet 'involving a fundamental principle of sound. ,By a slight . turn of -the hand ijbsupplies the proper needle, correct weight and precise uiapniHKui, r s m The Amplifier Enriches Tone As the name implies amplifies tone, making it truer and sweeter.
