(5) Ans wered above. Dear Mrs. Thompson : I am a man pf 20, a church member, and always Intend to live a clean and honorablo life.' I have been going with the girls more or less ever since I was a "kid," but for. the last few months I have taken the same girt (two or three yean younger than I) out frequently. She la one ot.he brightest and jolll- est girls I y:r "went with, and as I pretty well acquainted I uttlng my arm around her. jected very strongly and 6eem- teel as if I had done an inten- wrong. there any harm In that? ave enjoyed her company very as we have many tastes in com and should hate, it drop her, but Is always going to be so par r, am afraid our good times are As- I II " I uounoa i .Jensen !

Al though we differed so greatly on that occasion, I do not think my friend is angry now, as she treats me aa usual whenever we chance to meet. . TROUBLED TOM. Look here, Tom! Haven't you sense enough to know a decent girl when you see her? - If you were 30 instead of 20 you would be looking for just that kind of a girl to marry a girl who allows no liberties to any man except the one she loves and the one who expects to marry her. , And you, my boy, are not doing any thing manly in being angry because she i "particular." A self-respecting girl and a girl worth knowing is always "particular," no matter who the man may be. And just because she is, you know you can trust her and that she isn't letting any sort of mushy creature slop around her. Dear Mrs. Thompson: (1) I belong to the "King Harold's Missionary." I am on the "silver side" and we have to ' entertain the "blue side." Would you give a musical entertainment, or would you take the other side to the woods and go fishing? (2) .Would it be best to have your hair cut off short to your head after having typhoid fever? (3) What will grow hair quickly? A KING HAROLDER.

OIXTIVATE GOOD FOOD H ABITS. There are few house mothers who would think of. serving hot cakes and Eausages for breakfast on a summer morning, or pork chops with fried potatoes for dinner, even if they did occasionally use such dishes in their winter menu. Why? Because the stomach rebels against such heavy. heating, indigestible food; really not food, but things Simplicity should govern the prep aration. Avoid all highly seasoned dishes.
