-- HIS mast be the place, said
I Helen, looking up rather du
biously at the brownstone
front of the house.
Louise hesitated. 1 don't know that
I want to go In at all. now .we're
here," she parried. "Really. I don't
tliink Bob would Hke it; do you, Helen?
Of course the neighborhood is all
right, hut the windows look cheerless.
Still we might as well chalice it. We
really don't have to stay."
Helen followed Louise up the steps
and Louise gave the bell a resounding
peaL She laughed at the anxious look
on Helen's face.
"Helen, you're taking- things too ser
iously I see that I must be careful
not to show my feelings or you'll be
worried all afternoon, because I expect
to go the round of all the places we
have on this list."
Helen gave a relieved sigh, "well,
if you really are not going to stay In
a place you are sure won't suit you
Just because you want tp be settled,
then I really don't care."
"My dear, how little you know me,
hut here comes someone now for the
Inside of the place.
A tail, thin maid with a soiled apron
opened the door and' looked tne in
truders up and down.
-"We should like to see some of the
rooms you have advertised," said
Louise, with her ingratiating smile.
Tes, ma'am. "Will you come in and
ril call Mrs. Beverly. Right this way."
And the maid showed them into a typi
cal boarding house parlor and de
parted on her hunt for tne lady of the
Louise and Helen rooked around the
room interestedly. The shutters were
closed and the windows were "'"jo"
draperies of any kind to relieve their
-ncliness. The chairs werell covered
with their annual summer dress and
some family portraits with massive gilt
frames which hung on the walls were
draped with mosquito netting. In one
corier of the room was an antiquated
'piano, on which was a yellowed bust
fieethovek and through the sliding
doors wllicb. were partly open. Helen
cVmld see a glimpse of an untidy
sleeping room. .. .
-Someone must have the room be
hind this one," she whispered to Louise,
the bid in there isn't made up yet"
-My dear." said Louise, drawing up
her face into a horrible grimace, can
i, imnirlne Bob lounging in here
after dinner every night while he
smokes his cigar? It would be as good
as a circus. ' . ,
Someone's coming." warned Helen.
as the rustle of a skirt was heard in
the hall, and the next minute Louise
had risen to speak to a rather severe
looking person, who sat pompously in
one of the capacious chairs and
waited. , . .
1 am looking for a place to board,
began Louise without any preamble.
I read your advertisement. Perhaps
you will be kind enough to show me
what you have,"
-Certainly, madam. Are you two
young ladies going to room together?"
"Oh. no," went on Louise; "the rooms
are for myself and my husband. We
shall want two rooms and a bath, if
you can accommodate us."
Mrs- Beverly sighed heavily as she
rose to show tne way upstairs. ril
Elnw you what I have. Mrs. "
Curtis." filled in Louise.
She Shoirs Off the Room.
Turns ' repeated the landlady me-cr-pmcaUv.
"I can give you the two
room on the second floor, but you
would have to share the bathroom with
the hallroom boarder. That's the best
I can do fr you; these 'ouses aren't
bnilt so that I could give you a private
bath perhaps it won't suit you at all."
And Mrs. Beverly threw open the door
of the second floor front as she spoke.
Helen and Louise followed her and
looked hastily around. Everything was
clean enough and the two rooms con
nected by sliding doors.
"I can have the bed taken out of the,
iruui juuui l jrvu wmi TO us it mr a.
sitting room," said Mrs. Beverly, as
though she was offering a great favor,
"and the terms would be $20 a week
with board."
Louise cast a hasty look at Helen,
end then turned smilingly to the
Kloomy Mrs. Beverly.
"Of course I can't decide definitely
until my husband has seen them. I
shall have to let you iiiow, and I am
so much obliged to you for showing
"them to me. Ill let you know in a
day or so if we decide to take them.
Of course I had counted' on a private
bath." -
Mrs Beverly brightened up consider
ably as she showed her guests down
stairs. Helen thought she seemed re
lieved that Louise had not decided on
the rooms.
"1 have a sister, Mrs. Curtis, who has
an apartment uptown. I think she
would have Just the rooms you are
looking tor," the landlady volunteered
as they stood for a moment in the dark
halL -Would you care about having
her address?"
Louise exclaimed, as she wrote the
number down on her list:
"Why. Helen, that isn't far from you.
"You see," turning to Mrs. Beverly,
"my husband and I are expecting to
take an apartment in the fail and we
expect to board only until then. AH
boarding places advertised seem to be
In this neighborhood, I didn't see any
at all up town."
Baby of Future
is Considered
Much thought has been given in late
S"ears to the subject of maternity. la
the cities there are
maternity hospitals
equipped with mod
ern methods. Bat
most women prefer
their own homes and
in the towns vil
lages must prefer
them. And since
this Is true we know
from the great many
spienoiq letters writ
ten on the subject that our lIother"3
Friend" Is a great help to expectant
mothers. They write of the wonderful
relief, how it seemed to allow the
muscles to expand without undue strain
and what a splendid Influence It was on
the nervous system. Such helps as
"Mother's Friend" and the broader
knowledge of them should have a helpful
Influence upon babies of the future.
In a little book for such women these
points are more thoroughly brought out
and a copy will be mailed to anyone who
wm send us their name and address.
"Mother's Friend" Is sold In all dreg
stores and highly recommended for its
tlmtly usefulness. Its Bareness and the
real help it affords. Ask for it at the

"My sister doesn't advertise." said
Mrs. Beverly complacently; "she does
not need to. I'm sure you'll like her
place. Good by."
"What do you make of It? said
Louise to Helen as they went down
the steps. "Would you try the place
without going around down here any
longer? It doesn't seem to me as
though any of them would be much
different from Mrs. Beverly's."
They Try a Sfew Place.
Td try the place," advised Helen
suddenly. 'It's my private opinion
that she knew Vou didn't intend to
come back, and that she wouldn't have
known how to suit you if you had.
rm really curious about the other
place; let's take the subway right up
town and try it"
The lobby of the apartment house
Mrs. Beverly had recommended was
similar to the one where Helen and
Warren lived. It was lavishly deco
rated and looked fresh and modern.
Mrs. Lee's apartment was on the
fourth floor, and a moment later they
had rung the bell and were waiting
for the appearance of Mrs. Beverly's
sister.
"I feel as if we were naving a real
adventure," whispered Louise as she
squeezed Helen's hand, and then the
door was opened noiselessly by a neat
little maid in black and they wer
ushered immediately intto the presence
of Mrs. Lee, who was at a desk
writing. She rose immediately as
Louise came forward. Mrs. Lee was
not at all like her sister; she was
plump and rather Jolly looking and her
room was charming. Helen took that
fact in at a glance.
Y' u are looking for rooms," she said
before Louise had a chance to speak.
"Did my sister send you here?"
Louise smiled back at the brisk little
woman and a second later they were
all three talking like old friends.
"I want so much to be in this nelfh
borhood." said Louise eagerly, "and I
hope you can take me Have you any
thing in the way of two rooms with a
bath attached where you could tuck
me away? Oh, yes, I have a husband,
and we shall he here nrobablr till
fall."
"I haven't anything Just now," said
Mrs. Lee, "but" noticing Louise's dis
appointed expression. "I think ril have
Just what you want the first of the
week. I have Just taken the adjoin
ing apartment and am havlnir the
rooms furnished. They can be ready
for you at the beginning of the week. II
you think you'd like them."
Louise brightened up immediately.
Tm sure they'll be Just what we want
May we .see them, please?"
"Certainly, ril take you right in,"
and Mrs. Lee led the way into the next
apartment and threw open the door of
the first room on the corridor.
There were two rooms adjoining, one
freshly papered in a soft brown, the
other in white with a rose border.
There was a tiny bath with fresh new
appointments everything seemed per-

and she smiled.
"Then well take the rooms. Mrs.

Louise was in raptures all the way

suddenly.

Advice To the Lovelorn
BY BEATEICE FAIRFAX
BUS1XESS CLOTHES FOR BUSINESS.
Dear Miss Fairfax:
Kindly let me know through your
column whether or not it is proper tor
a gentleman to attend an evening wed
ding or banquet in his business
clothes. H. B. G.
Formal evening affairs at which
women are present require full dress.
At a banquet for men only either
luxedo or business clothes are worn.
snoui.D COUSINS MAIUIYT
Dear Miss Fairfax:
I am In love with a young woman 21
Tear old. Four different people told me
not to marry her because we are third
cousins. Would you kindly tell me if
there is any harm in marrying third
cousins? " S.
First cousins should most decidedly
not marry. However, If you are only
third cousins, I think you may follow
your heart.
TIIE TRUTH.
Dear Miss Fairfax:
Have known a gin tor tne past tour
years and confess that I love her. But
the only fault is that she is not truth
ful. Please advise what I should do.
. J. H.
Have a serious talk with Ser and
make Tier realize that a life founded on
truth and faith is the only happy one.
Tell her that you will try to help her
overcome this fault and that In turn
she must help you In your weaknesses.
YOU ARE WRONG.
Dear Miss Falrfaxr
I am a young man, in lave with a
pretty girl. She loves me also, but at
present we are not engaged. She keeps
company and goes out with a number
of other men. Is this wrong or not?
B. K. G.
Until a girl Is engaged, she has the
privilege of having as many men friends
as she chooses. There Is absolutely no
Impropriety in this, and you must not
permit yourself to be a harsh and un
fair Judge.
FALSE PRIDE.
Dear Miss Fairfax:
I am 20 years old and dearly love a
girl two years my Junior. We recently
had an argument and became merely
acquaintances. Would you kindly tell
me how to win her again, as my stub
bornness keeps me back a goodi deal.
Discouraged.
Don't lose a good friend through
false pride. Write her a letter telling
her that you deeply regret your disa
greement and hope that she will be gen
erous enough to excuse you and be
friends again.
QUARRELS AND JEALOUSY.
Dear Miss Fairfax:
I am keeping company with a young
man two years my senior. We are en
gaged, but we are always quarreling.
He is very Jealous of me. Would you
kindly advise me what to do,
A. B. A. E. M.
Quarrels and Jealousy do not make
for a happy marriage. Try to persuade
him to trust you, and see if you cannot
overcome your own tendency to disa
greements. "It takes two to make a
auarreL" Unless love will solve vour
difficulties now, you will only find your
irouDies growing who marriage.
"HONOR THV FATHER."
Dear Mls4 Fairfax:
I am a young girl of 28 and keep
company with a young man six years
my senior. This young man claims to
love me. but whenever we are together
he swears and comments about xny
father, which almost distracts roe. Do
you think this man really loves me or
could ever make me happy If he con
tinues passing ugly remarks about my
father? Perplexed.
"Honor thy father and thy mother"
Is a commandment that you must never
forget If he insists on sneering at
your father, he might sneer at you
when the first romance of love had
worn off.
PLAY FAIR.
Dear Miss Fairfax:
I am a girl IS years old and have
been keeping company for the last
eight months with a young man. Two
weeks ago he brought his cousin to my
house and Introduced us. My friend,
having a position which takes htm out
of town a great deal, asked his cousin
to see that I wouldn't get lonesome.
While my friend was out of town, his
cousin declared his love for me and we
secretly became engaged. What should
I do?
I do? G. I.
Play f ilr. Write and tell the man for
whom you first cared that you have be
come engaged to his cousin, and hope
your, old friend will be glad to hear the
news of your happiness.
"3IIE INVITATION SHOULD
FR03I HIS MOTHER.
C0303
Dear Miss Fairfax.
I have been Keeping company with
a young man for the last six months.
He has asked me many times to spend
an evening at his mother's house. Is
It proper for me to go with him, and
when introduced must I shake hands
with the members of his family? He
has mother, father, sisters and
brothers. J. E. S...
This young man shows a very fine
feeling for you in wanting you to
meet his mother, but the Invitation
should come from his mother, so you
may be assured of a welcome. In
meeting bis relatives be cordial and
pleasant. It would be a gracious
courtesy to hold out your hand in
greeting.
FIItST LOVE.
Dear Miss Fairfax:
I am 21 years old. About four years
ago I was keeping company with a
young man and I loved him very much.
Through certain objection that my
mother had to him, I had to give him
up, and about two years later he mar
ried another -clrL Now another youne
man who makes a nice salary has asked
me to marry him. When be proposed
to me, I told him to wait a couple of
days for his answer. Do you think It
Is right for me to marry this man be
cause I think I could never love again?
Anxious.
Don't waste your life and love on re
membering a man who Is married to
another woman. Girls have a foolish
way of idealizing their first loves. Ev
erything In nature flowers again why
not your heart? Don't hurry yourself
Into a loveless marriage for the man
for whom you can truly care will come
Into your life some day.

Dear Miss Fairfax:
Recently I became engaged to a girl
18 years of age. I being 20 years of age.

He tells me not to depend upon him and

Now that the man you love has busi

your love and loyalty. If he really
cares for your faithfulness at a time
when he Is without work will be an
Incentive to work harder than ever.
QUESTION OF PROPRIETY.
Dear Miss Fairfax:
I know several people to whom I
have never been Introduced, since I
have met them In business. Would
It be proper for me to introduce them
to my friends when I myself have not
been introduced? I have an engag
ment with a young man for a certain
evening. At the time I made the en
gagement I did not know that on that
evening I was to be at home alone.
Shall I ask this young man to call
another night or shall I let him come
planned? S. N. M. R.
It Is generally best for a girl to keep
her business and social life separate.
However, If you . meet your business
acquaintances do not slight them by
failing to Introduce them to your
friends. I trust you are a sufficiently
dignified, self-respecting girl to be
able to entertain a caller In your own
home "without Impropriety even though
you do happen to he unchaperoned.
In general, though, try to make en

your family will be at home.
DONT DESPAIR.
Dear Miss Fairfax:
Kindly advise me what to do. I'm
a young girl of eighteen and consi
dered good looking. I am kept very
very strict by ray parents. We have
a business and I am always In the
store, even Sundays. I am not al
lowed to go for a walk. I am not al
lowed to have any men friends. I
have complained to ray parents, but
they don't seem to care. PERPLEXED.
You are very young, my dear girl,
and all the possibilities of life are
still before you. Your parents proba
bly mean only to protect you from
the slllness and affectation that are
spoiling girls today. Be simple and
sweet and modest, and some day hap
piness will come to you most unex
pectedly. Prove to your parents that
you are a sensible, trustworthy girl,
and I am sure as soon as any desir
able friends come your way they will
do all In their power to foster the -acquaintance.
HE MAY HAVE A REASON.
Dear Miss Fairfax:
I live with my married sister In a
small city. I have chances to go to
dances where I can meet the nice
boys and girls of the town, but ray
brother-in-law objects. I work for
them and am paid for my services,
and don't you think It Is selfish for
him to try to keep me away from

little cinder path and across a mossy
bridge and nothing but a hog tight
wire fence keeps you from walking Into
the Niagara river, 100 yards from the

like a kid with his milk teeth missing.

The Grand canyon is so quiet with
the eternal stillness of the ages that a
bird flyling over the chasm sounds
like the rustling of fine silk. Niagara

President. Cashier.
FIRST STATE BANK OF LAS CRTJCES.
Las Crates, X. X, July 7, 1914.
TO WHOM IT XtAY COXCERX:
We beg to st.te that we are very well acquainted with Sub
division Xo. 2, that the Las Cruces Realty Company of this city
is placing on the market. The Subdivision is well located, being
only five blocks from the business district of Las Oroces; two
blocks from the Loretto Academy and one and one-half blocks
from the Public School.
It fronts on a well graded and gravelled street, and the prices
are reasonable; Lots selling from ?10.00 to $1(0.00 each, good
terms, and we do not conceive bow it is impossible to nake
good money oa an investment in these Lots. ,
Many of our local people who are acquainted with local con
ditions, have purchased Lots in the new SubdivieioB, and that
fact alone shows merit in the proposition.
We further recommend the Las Cruces Realty Company as
being held in very high esteem as to its integrity, and also "able
to carry out its contracts, and knowing the BMtabers of the
firm as we do, it is a foregone conclusion, anv SoMrt-Mon they
place upon the market will bear the ektseet'investssatioM, and
will prove to be as represented.
la ease you desire to make inquiries in connection with the
above Subdivision or Company, we will be at your command.
We are, yours Tery truly,
w,- " T. R. H. SMITH,
TRHS-OL President.

Hke a wrrath of Immortelles placed on
tii otov it a vreat river.
The Horehoe Kails.
As at the canyon of the Colof"
there Is a restlessness which will not
let one stand and drink In the view
but for a minute. This magnetic force
drives one across Goat Island to view
the Canadian or Horseshoe faUs. A
heavy mist rises like white raesqulte
wood smoke from the Canadian falls
and floats away to the north toward
the Clifton hotel, which was the coot
for the Mexican peace dove. The Ca
nadian falls lack the punch. r
whelming force that the American falls
possess. This may be patriotism or It
may be good physics. But the tapres
sion that the Horseshoe falls carry Is
entirely different from that of the
American falls, as much different as
if they were of opposite sexes Tna
foreign falls form a perfect horseshoe
and a picture that Is as Impelling as
the great curtain of water on the
American side. They pou - their vol
ume of water into the lower river to
be drunk up thirstily by the rapids as
they eddy and swirl like drunken danc
ers. These famous whirlpool rapids
are a surprise. .Instead of tumbling
over each other Hke a mountain trout
stream, they writhe and coll with half
hidden force like a great snake. Green
and oily, the rapids suggest the terrible
crushing power of a python as tnev
slink through the gorge like a giant
serpent of old. . .
Go Abroad For a Nickel.
As In El Paso, it Is possible to go
abroad for a nickel. A sea going
street car runs back and forth across
the suspension bridge and carries the
excursionists with their Sunday school
convention badges over the mighty
river to gape at the place where the
Mexican mediators were curling their
mustaches industriously, as tney
wrestled with the internal problems of
the repubUc On the Canadian side,
the helmeted Cannuck police patrol the
streets and the mall carriers of George,
regent, the postmaster general of Great
Britain, gather up souvenir postcards
of the falls In Ford autos. The -Hew

Many thousands of women have put

Canadian. Is best from in front of ta
Clifton hotel, as the view may be seen
In perspective from this angle. As I
stood there drinking in the view alon?
with the mists that floated from t--Horseshoe
falls, a husky young Tanke
farmer backed a Cannock souvenir en
der against the rail running along tl-1
gorge and went to the greensward mat
in a wordy wrestling match over tr-e
chances the United States had ''
-licking" Great Britain. Both were
having the happiest time of their lives
and the Canadian was getting a 1-ttle
the best of it with his statistics and
facts.
Some Odd Comparisons.
I have seen a moss faced Mlssourlan
brush his teeth In the rapids of the
Colorado at the foot of Bright Angel
trail and have heard women disenss the
relative merits of baking powder or
buttermilk for biscuit making on the
brink of the canyon at sunset, when the
shadows were lengthening and the col
ors were pouring from the countersunk
canyons like pastels on a painters
palette. But to have that redneck
stand there In the face of such an over
whelming picture and twist the lion's
tall seemed like selling souvenir post
cards at the portals of heaven.
