Dear Miss Fairfax: I am 18 and grently attached to a man four years my senior, lie has asked me to mar ry hln., and I would consent but for on reason. My sister, now 21, went about with him. and though he no longer cares for her aha loyes him dearly. Now, Mit-s Fairfax, should I give up my happiness for my Bister, or what 6hall I do? anxious. I'm afraid you can't avoid tempo rarv unhaoniness for at least one of you three. Do you love this boy? Are you old enough to mean to settle down to marriage? is there enoufrn depth of feeling- to Justify you In fighting for happiness at the cost of a certain amount of humiliation for your sister? I'm not saying she won't get over It. Most folks rind time ana change a most excellent healer. But keeping her disappointment right under her eyes won't make it any pleasanter for your sister. His Parents Object. Dear Miss Fairfax: ,1 am 23 and am now graduating rrom a prores- sional college. I have lovd a young girl of good standing, ability and character for two years. 1 hopo to marry her, but my parents continu ously tell me she is poor and inferi or. I love this girl dearly and she loves me. A. B. The man who marries for money is a despicable cad, my boy Just one degree more unpleasant than the girl who sells herself.' Your parents are ambitious for you. Fired by their love they want you to have the tangible assets of life the material good. If you're a real man you can work and win these symbols of success. Hut the lovn of a fine woman is, above rubies. If you haven't the courage to fight for it you will, I fear, never realize your full stature as a man.. Family vs. Sweetheart. Dear Miss Fairfax: For several months I have known a young lady two months my Junior and love her dearly. I have proposed marriage and have been accepted both by her and her parents. Sly mother adores this girl and my father thinks the same, but they cannot tolerate her family. The girl's family is large with aunts and uncles all living in the same neighborhood. They occasion ally quarrel, and for that reason my father has asked me to give her up. i nave given my word to this cirl that I will marry hr. It is her hap piness that is my desire to wed her. T. O. S. ' Have the courage of your convic tions aiyl be true to your best feel ings. Since the girl herself is fine and loyal, and since your parents confess that they have nothing against her, why should she suffer because of their failure to get on with her people? I think your fami ly is talking: a bit, but will give in if they are made to feel that you have the strength to stick to the one you love. ' Mrs. Johnson Re-elected.

From Madge. I stiffened, offended, at Grace Dra per's flippant reference to my "faith ful Fidos," following so closely upon my granting of her appeal for par don. But before I could speak she had redeemed her lapse into her old mocking vernacular with quick con trition. , "Oh, please forgive me for speak ing that way!" she cried, distressed. "But if you had been harried from pillar to post the way I have, every innocent act and word distorted, an evil motive imputed to everything, I don't believe you would have much reverence or liking for the people doing it. "I am afraid I do not understand, I said a trifle stiffly. She looked at me steadily. "Do vou mean that you do not know the espionage to which ! have been subjected on your account since I was released?" she asked. I flushed involuntarily at the qucs- t on. rca izinar that 1 had no rtgnr 10 betray my knowledge of any actions other than my own.

A spark ot the old hre gleamed m her eyes at my answer, and I felt that she fathomed my subterfuge. But it vanished as ' suddenly as it appeared, and her manner when she spoke again was one ot entire dciici in my assertion. r. A Surprise. "No I don't believe you do," she said slowly, then with a rush of words, "I ought not to tejl you if you wished you could make a great ccal of trouble tor me by repeating what I'm going to say, but I don't believe vou will." She stopped and eyed mc hcsitat- mgly. I wondered if she were going to ask me to promise silence, but in stead, she hurried on. Ever since I left the prison 1 have known that I was under con stant surveillance," she said, "and I found out no matter how that four different persons were -strongly in terested in all my doings. When I tell you that the names of those four persons arc Allen Urake, . migh Grantland, Harry and Lillian Un derwood, you will not wonder, I think, that I realized their interest m tny doings was simply interest m you." . One item alone of her little speech surprised mc, and that was her in troduction of Harry Underwood's name.

Madge's Promise. She stopped,- and the inevitable question sprang to my lips. "How is it then that you accom plished this meeting so easily?" I wondered if it were triumph that flickered in her eyes tor a moment. "That will have to remain my secret," she said. "Otherwise I should have to betray a trust placed in me. But part of my success lies in the fact that I have been as tic tionless as a seashell ever since I returned from the South. The most active cats doze at the mice holes sometimes." There was a hint of satisfaction in her manner. I wondered idly if it were justified, or whether the four persons she had named were in- rWrt a hlitifl as slip had named were mdeed as blind as she evidently be lieved them to be. That they could have no knowledge of my present interview I believed, clsi it would have been stopped before this.

And when they did learii of the trick she had used to secure an interview with mc, what penalty would they visit upon her? "Can't you imagine how intoler able such espionage is?" she said fiercely.

They will never believe me. but I think they will' believe you if you can tell them that you have seen me don't tell them the trick I played, say it was an accidental meeting and that you are 'convinced I mean no harm. Won't you do that for me?" I shut jny ears relentlessly to the, little note of warning still sounding, though faintly, in my brain.
