"Stop a minute," said Dick as we

"Here" wag a florist shop, and
Dick ordered a dozen magnificent
American beauties sent to - bis

wear a huge bunch of violets, with
a, gardlnla in the center. He want

said, "have the violets sent me and
I will wear thpm this afternoon."
"All right, Margie," acquiesced
Dick, with a pleased look, and he
whispered, "Wear that 'tinsilly'
dress you wore in New York."
"I don't think my very best even
ing dress would be quite the thing
to wear in the afternoon, Dicky,"
I said, with a little laugh at the
PECULIAR IDEAS OP MOST MEN
ABOUT WOMEN'S DIIESS.
Dick likes my gold-embroidered
and beaded tan gown the best of
any In my trousseau and, man-like,
he wants me to wear it on all pos-
sible occasions. He seems to think
that MY PRKTTY FROCKS ARE
A PART OF WHAT HE MARRIED.
Notnithataaillag all the hard
w»rk and continuous talking whlrh
rtae feminist grronp Is doing, I be
lleve that, down *rrt> In his heart,
each man has a feeling wiiuifh are
very dlir. mil from himself—
they do not belong to the tauiuaa
I'uiiilly. |
I have never yet met ■ man (ant
since I lun r lirrn inanled <o Dick
the truth mines home to me In a
greater degree) who honestly
thought any woman «<■ his suue
rior or even Ms <-.|i.»l.
Woman, in man's mind, Is like
every other thing a man wants In
this world: Something to be
BOUGHT, STOLEN OR OBTAINED'
In some other manner and, after
being possessed, to be loaded with
gifts and made beautiful with
gauds, as tba mood takes him. -
* These ideas cam* into my mind
when Dick bought the flowers for
his mother and me.
He knew that he had hurt his
mother's feelings that morning by
speaking so disrespectfully of her
friends and he was sending her
roses because that was the EASI
EST WAY OF "BUYING BACK"
HER PRIDE AND JOT in her only
son.
He was decking me out with vio
lets and asking me to wear my beat
frock merely to show the "lot of
old frumps" that he was what he
calls "a good picker."
It was sweet of him to give the
flowers to both his mother and me,
but I could see that he bought them
for us AS HE WOULD BUY CANDY
FOB A CHILD.
If he had outgrown the old feel
ing of "man thinks ha is the king
of beastses,". as my old colored
mammy used to say, he would not
liave said things to his mother for
which he was serry; neither would
lie question the fact that I must
know what Is best for myself to
wear on all occasions, and that I
would always try to do him honor.

I am very happy to have Dick
buy me a bunch of violets, alt'ho'ugli
he has forgotten all about giving
me an allowance of fifty dollars a
month since that first time we near
ly had a quarrel about It In New
York. I shall probably put them
away and label them, "My hus
bands first gift of flowers after our
marriage." HI» mother called
everybody's attention to the flowers
he sent her this afternoon, with the
words: "You see, my boy does not
neglect his roothe* even if he has
married."

hugs It to her heart and make, the

:: LETTERS ::
Dear Miss Grey: As you
have helped lots of girls I
think you can me. lam go
ing with a mre boy and like
him very much. He has a
ring of hts own, and he wants
me to wear It for him. I
don't know what to tall him.
Will you kindly toll me
whether it will be right for
me to wear the ring, and an
swer soou? «•
BROWN EYES.
A.—l am nut so prudish that I
(liiiik you cannot wear the ring
and be just boy and k»\ friends;
but my cxperien<« Ih that it is not
»i-i- to wtMu* other people's jew
elry ulu-l liit hoy or »;irl. If you
should lone the ring you would
feel very badly about it.
If you should decide to wear
the boy's ring, do nut let him
make you think he han the right
!<> kiss or caress you, or that he
has any hold whatever on you on
accouat of It. l-i't him understand
from the first tlutt it is merely In
a friendly way. Now, remember
what I Hay, for 1 know what 1 am
talking about.
Dear Miss Qrey: lam a
great admirer of you and read
your answers dally. They
are both instructive and in
spiring.
lam 20. About a year
ago I started to keep com
pany with a young man
about my own age. He
made love to me, and made
me think he intended to
marry me. I trusted him
and thought him sincere.
But, sometime ago he
started to run around with
other girls, and does not call
on me any more. Miss Grey,
I love this man, and have
done nothing to deserve
such treatment. I feel my
whole life is ruined without
him. I don't think 1 can
ever love a man again. Can
1 compel him to marry me,
or shall I forget him as un
worthy a true woman's love.
Please answer.
A GIRL IN SORROW.
A.—You have my sincere sym
pathy. Hut facta remain. One
is iliat you would by far better
feel your life ruined without suoh
a man ilu with him. Another
is iluii you cannot Judge now
how you may feel six montlis
from now to say nothing of a
year hence. What ponslble hap
piness would there he in compell
ing him to marry you. You would
be further apart in such marriage
than you are now. Turn your
mind from the subject as far as
possible. There Is no doubt but
that he will reap what he has
sowed sooner or later. He really
needs your sympathy. . .
Dear Mlv Urey: , I went
with a young man uuttl last
bop picking tim», when nmt
■trange girls came to town.
Then he stopped paying at
tention to me, and took
them around. I admit that
I kept even with him; but he
started it.
1 am 17 and love him, and
be does me, «t least he has
said so many times. Now
that the other girls are gone
he wants to make up. Shall
' 1 do so, or shall 1 be inde
pendent? A FRIEND.
A.—l>o both. Mikr up, and be
independent, too. 1 don't think
any young iiimii or woinau ahould
tliink he or Nhe owns the oilier;
but It Is rude to Hay tlie least to
|My < i.iimiiim* aii.ini.Hi i<> one |»er
son, and then drop him suddenly,
making liim ruii*pii imuv. Were
I in your plitre, I would freely for
give the younK innn ; but ] would
certainly not drop all my oth«r

exclusively to him. He doesn't de
