Problems That Perplex Answered by BEATRICE FAIRFAX. Too Much Repression. Dear Miss Fairfax: "Modest's" letter ami the replies thereto have prompted me to write you and ask if you will kindly help me solve my problem, or allow It to be discussed. The trouble is, I am too matter-of-fact and do not "take." I am con vinced that this is a result of being endowed with a serious and shy dls-. position, intensified by a narrow en vironment. Circumstances Inspired me with a desire to succed in the business world and I "landed" in a place minus young people but plus responsibility. My home. is without social activities, due to parents ad vanced in years, who maintain that since I have a home and my work, what more do I want Of course I understand their position; their lives have been all work and no play, and now, being: old, company is a bother. Because of my love for them and the realization 'that they need me (not financially), I have stifled my crav ings for friends and enjoyments. I have only a few girl friends and a little amusement occasionally, the latter, however, after much arguing. Now in the late twenties, when I should be "settled," I am discontent ed and still long for a broader hori zon, realizing that a good may girl hood years have gone by that should have been more care-free and full of fun. I cannot help but feel that the Divine Plan was that we, all, should live as complete lives as possible, mingling with people, and not live exclusively to ourselves. It seems as though jolly people get so much more out of life than the serious ones. How can too . earnest young people change their natures, and does it pay? .Have they traits which on set those of the happy-go-lucky? I wonder if each one of us is chastened by some trying experience. The only remedy I. can see for me is to seek a congenial employment in some other town; but, as I want to be fair, I am torn between the fol lowing conflicting emotions: The de sire to "stick" to the home folks., for "blood is thicker than water," and the desire to fare forth, as I be lieve I owe it to myself to rYiake the most of my life. Some day when I have no paternal roof, I will have to rely on my own resources, anyway. Which shall it be, Miss Fairfax? BETWIXT. Why not master the situation where you are? Young company in the home cannot harm your parents. They will probably grow to like it. Yours is a fine letter but I see your life has been too full of repression. Give it more expression. Read some books (not too far advanced) on philosophy and psychology and try to "find yourself." HOLDING A HUSBAND Adele Garrison's New Phase of Revelations of a Vife Why Madge "Dared" a Question to Lillian. I have never tasted anything more delicious than the sausages which Marion broiled on pointed sticks over our or rather her camp fire, and the coffee which Lillian expertly brewed. She had disdained the sug gestion of Katie's coffee in a vacuum bottle as "being insufferably ' civil ized." Katie had provided . sand wiches, devilled eggs, olives-, and Marion's favorite little cakes, and we did full justice to them,, but there is a flavor to food, cooked over a wood fire in the open . air .which is never equalled elsewhere. "Talk about being gorged to re pletion," Lillian said when we had finished. "Whoever first" invented that mouth-fiilling phrase "must have iiad me in mind. I don't feel as if. I wanted to move for a week." . We had taken the robes and cush ions from the car and were stretched out luxuriously under the budding trees. That is,, Lillian and I were resting. Marion' was industriously building up her fire, putting water to boil in a small kettle which we had brought along. "I'm going to clear up everything myself." she announced enthusiasti cally, "j'tist the? .way Uncle Robert taught me. It's very good" training for being a scout when I can find a troop to join," she added, with a little rueful side glance at her mother. Lillian explained in a low Voice as Marion busied herself with 'the dish es: "Marion really is old 'enough' to join the scouts, according to their rules, but in the city I can't bear to have her away from me-on the little hikes they take. So I've told her that I thought she ought to wait until she is oldef. but her heart- fa' so-feet on it that I'thfrfk if we find a1 perma nent place in the country.iand if there is a scout Organization there T shaft permit her to join. A good many 'ifs.' but I hope they will.be sur-. mountable, for she dies love wood craft so." ' -' V ' Is Lillian Weakening? A . shadow came into' her brave eves, and I knew what had brought it there, the thought of the man who had taught Marion woodcraft. .Rob ert Savariri.' e"'i ; 'r I looked rat her intently, ind:. dared suddenly tp put the .question that had trembled upon1 my; lip?"' s-,mln times: J : ' "' -' '" - "Lillian, have- you ' never weak ened in your determination.' to shut happiness away from you and Ro bert, and Marion?"

" ; rv .Si pathetic gesture, as though she were warding ?ff a blow. "Don't, Madge," she said, but the protest was a feeble one. It was utterly unlike the stern at titude she has always adopted to ward even the suggestion that she should free herself frcm Harry Un-. derwood and marry Robert Savarin. the famous artist, who has loved her so many years, and whom Marion, adores, puts in the place of the father who treated her mother with such awful injustice, herself with neglect. "You know," she went on, more in the manner of one going perfunc torilly over a well-known argument, than that of a person believing her own promise, "it is for Marion's hap piness I refuse Robert. Do yon think if it were not for her, for drag ging her through the publicity which must follow any action of mine, that I would sacrifice Robert for a day an hour a minute of convention ality? I would go to him. as quickly as rail or motor would carry me." Madge's Hope. She had kept her voice down to the low tone in which she had begun speaking, a tone which Marion cculd not hear. But there was a tensity, a fierceness in her last words, low spoken though they were, and a drawn look on her face which be trayed the ppignance of her suffer ing. I felt as if I were clumsily tearing open a wound, but something be yond my usual caution and reserve j seemed driving me on to what seemed useless protest and argu- j ment. I "Have you ever thought of tjlfh angle to your problem?"

The publicity then will af fect her far more than now. for siie will be old enough to understand what it means. If you marry Vim now, whatever flurry there is will be forgotten by the time Marion is grown up." I had startled her. 1 saw that by the glance she gave me. But hey words were 'noncommittal, with a touch of irony. !', "What a childih faith in journal istic Tuemories'is yours, Madge," -"she said, and I knfw that she had put on her mask again, and would permit no further reference to her life prob lem.

Being Excitable A woman whose mother had be come excited whenever adish was broken or a leak discovered in1 die water pipap or the children came in with bleeding fingers made up her mind that when she had a home of her own she would let none of these emergencies find her off guard. So she began as a girl and continued, after she became a homemaker to train her mind to detect and her will to tackle instantly the horns of household dilemmas. She trained her body also to await the com mands of her mind, so that she in dulged in no upthrowing of hands.', of loud outcries or agonized gass ings when things went wrpng.V'Slrd" found that mental and. physical' poise reacted favorably .Upon, each othet; and that to be calm - in meeting: emergencies- has a steadying effect upon other people, so that the mini mum .of disturbance results when unpleasant-surprises'.

Clouded by a film Teeth are clouded by a dingy film. At first it is viscous you can feel it It clings to ' teeth, gets between the teeth and stays. Old ways of brushing do not effectively combat it. Much of the film remains. Then , night and day it may do ceaseless damage. Most tooth troubles are now traced to film, . and those troubles have been constantly in creasing. ' ' . It is the film-coats that discolor, not the teeth. Film is the basis of tartar. It holds food substance which ferments and forms . acid. It holds the acid in contact with the . teeth to cause decay. Germs breed .by millions in it. They, with tartar, are the chief cause of pyorrhea. Also of other serious troubles, local and internal. Science combats it Dental science, after long research, has found ways to combat film. Able authorities have amply proved them. Now leading den-, tists, here and abroad, advise their daily use.
