Salt Lai Gty. tffct&rc Dear Miss--' JJrooks:4 - K. !I thank you' very much for the answer you gave me and I think I will keep coming to you for you give such satisfactory answers.' MAE, Ephraim, Utah. Thanks, Mae. I have mailed you the book of plays and other litera-ture and hope you will find just what you are looking for. : ' Dear Miss Brooks: " y-- i I have a few questions I would like you to answer for me. I have kept company with my fiance for a year and he never has , given me a box of candy of any kind, and never seems to want to treat me very much. Do you, think that is because he doesn't care enough for me? He gave me a real nice Xmas present. - (2). Why is it that boys we girls are acquainted with in our home town will not dance with us ? We always speak to them and have never given them any reason we know of to dis-like us. They always dance with the more popular ones and the sirange girls.' Hoping for an early reply. "'';' 1 - ; ' " BROWN EYES. Your fiance is unusual In that he has not given yeu even one box of candy, but it doe not necessarily mean that he does not care enough for you. He may just be one of the kind who does not approve, of spend-ing money that way or he may not know, that you are fond of candy. 1 imagine he must just be a thrifty, eco-nomical young man who does not be-lieve in spending money for small things which he does not consider of any value. It would seem that it is "up to you," to use a popular phrase, to let him know you care for those things or eke think as he does about it, and not let it bother you. I am sure I cannot tell you why the boys of your town do not dance with you. Do you dance well? If not, im-prove in that respect all you can and I am sure they will dance with you as everyone likes to dance with a good dancer, and of course you wouldn't have your home boys neglect the visiting girls, would you? Dear Miss Brooks: I am deeply troubled and feel that I should cck some one's advice. I am nineteen years old and have a friend who ia forty. We have been in each other's company for almost a year He seems to care a great deal for me ind is very attentive. Do you think e is too old for me? Thanking you in advance, WONDERING, Rigby, Idaho In most cases I would say without hesitation that there was entirely to much difference in your ages, but o course there are exceptions to al rules, and you are the only one wht would be able to judge whether your case was an exception or not. In most cases a man of forty who mar-ried a girl of nineteen (if you are considering marriage) would be dic-tatorial and expect her to be obedient to his wishes, etc. Ordinarily a young girl does not relish being treat-ed in that way by a husband, so I advise you to study well his disposi-tion before seriously considering mar-riage. You do not say whether you think a great deal of him or not. Be sure of yourself, also. My dear Miss Brooks: I have been so interested in your corner that I thought I would ask you some questions'. Could you tell me how anyone could take the dan-druff out of their hair, bind when any-one's hair is coming out in handfuls, could you tell them how to stop it without cutting it off ? I am sending a two cent stamp for you to send the. "39 Tested Recipes" Book. Your true friend, ' McCAMMON. Idaho. Yes, I can tell you how to stop it I believe. Your hair coming out so badly is caused no doubt by so much dandruff. If you .end a s imped ad-dressed envelope I will send you the name of a hair tonic which will re-move the dandruff and cause the hair to grow. Daily massaging gently with the tips of the fingers is excel-l- . nt to develop a healthy condition of the scalp. You neglected to send your name so we cannot send the book, but will send it fust as soon as you send us your name. Dear Miss Brooks: My hair is very poor and I would like very much to know what to do for it It is very greasy and oily and I have lots of dandruff. I have had it bobbed. Do you think that will help it? Thanking you in ad-vance for same. I am your affection-ate friend, L. V. B., Downey, Idaho. Having your hair bobbed may help some, but it w.lll not remove the dan-druff, I am afraid. So many seem to be having trouble with their hair. You will perhaps notice that I am asking them to send their name and a stamped envelope, so that I may send them the name of a very reliable hair tonic which will remove the dandruff ind promote a healthy condition of the scalp. Dear Miss Brooks: I have bfen interested in your cor-ner for some 'time, and would lik to have you nnswer a few questions that are of importance to my I'ee Hive work. I would like to know the meaning of a honey lily, cushion daisy and pond lily. I will thank you a thousand times in advance Very anxious to hear from you soon, ... .. FRECKLES, Burley, Idaho I am answering your question through the corner and so will file your addressed envelope away in case you may write again and will want a private answer. The Water or Pond Lily means In the language of flowers "Silence." I could not find a Honey Lily, but the Honey Flower means "Love, sweet and secret." There is" also a Honey Flower (Mourning Bride) meaning "I have lost all." . The Cushion Daisy-- was unable to find at all. for which I am truly sorry. Perhaps there is another name for it which you could send and I will try again. Dear Miss Brooks: . I enjoy very much, the valuable in-formation I receive in your corner. I also would like some help.. I am very desirous of obtaining a breast pin with my name on, one made of gold wire in the form of my name. I will feel very grateful to you if you will tell me where I can get one made. . . . GOLDEN LOCKS. If yon will send me your full name and an addressed envelope, Golden Locks, with the name you wish made, I will send you the name of a firm who will make you a pin together with the cost of having it made. Dear Miss Brooks: I'm very interested in "our corner" and hope I am worthy to become m member. I am a girl of 15 and am very interested in a boy of 17. Some-times he acts queer and other times he acts good; when he is good he is very good to me, but other times-h-acts queer. Could you please tell me how to find out whether he likes me or not? 2. Could you please tell me a way to get rid of split ends on the hair? How old do you think a girl ought to be before starting her trousseau? My brother said to write with him md he knew you would answer my mestions. Thanking you in advance, A. G Kanarra, Utah. You are very welcome to our cor-ner, I am sure. You are very young to be much in-terested in any boy, my dear, but of :ourse we ' all enjoy having good riends. It would be very difficult d, for me to tell you how you on Id find out whether he likes you or ot. AVe usually take it for granted that when persons seek our society they enjoy being with us or they would not come, so that is one way for you to judge. We are all "queer" at times you know, so do not think too much about that. You are much too young to be think-ing of a trousseau. You prepare your trousseau after you become engaged to be married. Perhaps you had in mind a "hope chest" which is so pop-ular these days. You may make dain-ty things for personal wear or for use in the home and store them in your hope chest, but do not necessarily have to be engaged or married to make use. of them. You could start one of these whenever you wish to. . Have a barber singe the ends of your hair about every two or three months and I think you will find this will help it. Your brother is quite correct. am glad you wrote together, but I would gladly answer if you each wrote alone. Dear Miss Brooks: I have been very interested in "Our Corner" for quite a while and hope you can answer my question. How old should a girl be before starting to do up her hair? Thank you very mu-- h. WONDERING, Richfield, Idaho. Do not put your hair up before you are sixteen if you can possibly avoid it. So much depends on your per-sonality as to just how old you should be, but be girlish as long as you can, because you cannot very well let your hair down after you once begin to do it up. Dear Miss Brooks: Will you please answer a question which is puzzling me? I know it is not correct to hold your escort's hat at any public place, but it is the custom to do so around here and one would hardly want to feel out of place, riease tell me what to say in offering to hold a gentleman's hat Wishing you much success and hap-piness. I am, TECGY, Moroni, Utah. No, dear, it is rot really proper any plitce, I believe, for a lady to be a hat rack for a gentleman's hat, but it does sem that some men have a habit of expecting a lady to hold their hats. If you are in a theatre or any place where he can put his hat und r the neat, I would simply suggest thrt he place it there. Other places I b;1- - lieve the best plan would be to hoM it if he offers it to you. An oppor- - j tunily may present iUtlf when you can without ofTene, let him know you do not denire the privilece of hrOding his hat. Thunks for your good wihht-s-.

Recently the latter hatched six little chickens, but she proved herself to be an unnatural mother and wouldn't take care of them. The family was provoked and Mary Jane's father threatened to sell the hen If she didn't take care of the chickens. That brought Mary Jane to strategy. That evening when her father came home she was waiting for him. , "Where's your hen?" he demanded. "Is she caring for her chickens?" "Oh, no," Mary Jane was very seri-ous.
