There are thro questions I would like to ask you. (a) There Is a certain boy In this town that said he loved me and wanted an answer. I loved him but did not like to tell him, so what would you do .In that ease? M If yon wanted to be friendly with a boy how would you go at it? Would you hang around him, or what would you do? (c) I went over to i a lady's home the other day and the boy I , e was talking about In my first question cam f up and as soon as he came I went home. . but I would have liked very much to have f stayed only I did not want him to think that I went there because he came.

Let as sia- - cerely hope you will never have any grant- - er troubles. New If I only knew how ale) yon are I could give yoa better advice. De yoa think yea are old enourh to know the meaning of the word "love V Don't yon v really think that what yea mean la that yoa Uke this boy friend Joit a little better than some of the ethers perhaps? (b) To f gain anysne's friendhlp just be ymr awn natural unaffected self and be plea-a- nt and agreeable. NO, never "hang around" a boy. They abhor that (c) Well, I wonder why yon thoaeht yea should go heme as soon ,. as your friend came. Barely it would hava f been better to stay and talk to him. I be-- lieve yea should try to overcome self-ca- f scieusnese and possibly a little bashfulnsea. tired." However, it weald not be preper to rerase a dance to ana man and give the same dance to another, but It la auite proper to deny yourself to one bey and If he then gees h starch at another partner, to walk or talk with another while the dance Is in pro-gress. It Is all right for a girl and her fane to leave th-- dance mom, but they heal! not remain absent se long aa to make N retleeabla. Dear Miss Brooks 1 Will yoa please answer soma queatione for met How many times may a girl dance with a boy without breaking the rules of etiquette? Is it proper for a girl to ak for a dance? May you refuse a dance without a reason? Thank you. YOUR INQUIRER, Utah. Ta danea too freqaently with one young man is considered both Indiscreet and The boy who oerts yoa to the dance has the right to ask for three dances the first, the last, and ene In between) and he should da his best to sea that yoa have ether partners 1 bat If for any reason yoa de not have, It la all right for yea to dance with him a time ar twe mora. It makes a girl rather conepleusas If she dances several dances with one boy in accession. A girl does not ask-- boy for a dsnce anyway, an-tes It is Leap Year, which it isn't this yeat. That Is the boy's prerogative, Hope this is what yen wanted, and ysn are auite welcome. Dear Helen Brooks : I have just discovered your corner, "Just between you and me," so I am coming straight to you. I am sure these questions have both-ered other girls, and also have been asked before, and I wish you good success In ans-wering them for me. 1st. I am dark complect-ed. What can I do to wh'ten my skin? tnd. My face Is also marred with tiny black-heads. What would you suggest? And again' my hair is giving me considerable trouble. It refuses to grow and is thin and short. Having kept np with the styles It has been necessary to snarl It. Should I cut it, or can I help it otherwise? Best wishes, r. P.. Mantl, Utah. If year complexion Is naturally dark, my dear. It la a pretty hard matter to change It. and from what yen say I sappere It is, and that yea are not simply tanned. If yea wish ta try a mild bleach, yea can na dnebt get an excellent ene at year local drug store. For the blackhssds a good Acne Cream can alee be secured at the same place, and should be need after thsr-eavh- r' cleaning the face with a reed sosp and water, ar with a cleanslrg cream. .As for the hair. I should hate to eat h If I. were yea. theagh f It la badly, broken at the ansi from the snsrling prorsas, and yoa are yean: ensagh, M might be all right to de se. Mas-sage Is always good for the scalp, and pai-ring the hair to bring the blend ta the sur- - race, eat these thmre have to be persisted to systematically la order to de any good. Toa de net say whether yea have dandruff, but It la very probable that you have, and If so. get a bottle of dsndraff cure and ase accord-ing to directions, and I am ears yea will be leased with the remits. Of eeurss yea mast keep the scalp clean, shampooing It with a good soap aa eftsn as necessary. Oily hair needs shampooing mach eftener than If It It dry.

PAINT THAT MAKES OR MARS Of Immense Importance It the Selec-tion of Color to Suit Style of Structure. Just as Important as a new costuma as a proclamation to the world of mod-ishne-is the coat of paint that mars or makes the exterior of a home. It is a signal sign of thrift and self-respe-varying Just In the degree of good taste which has been employed In the selection of a color scheme which Is harmonious with the home's surroundings. St, such latitude Is possible In the decoration of an exterior as that which may be used upon the Interior. It Is not the place for the expression of personal Individuality. Rather the outside of a home, observed con stantly by the world, Is governed by a conventionality which abhors the bizarre. Regardless of climate, It Is the style of architecture which has ,been employed In the home building and the nature of its surfoimdings which must govern to a lurge extent the colors chosen. A house whkb Is set closely among trees or shrubbery, It Is as-serted by those who have made a study of the problem, should never be painted green or olive, although a green shade for trimming purposes may be used. For the body of the house It Is mucii better that colors contrasting . with the background should be utilized. . If a hous. Is low, with a tendency toward sqwattiness, a dark color should not be used. A lighter shade will preserve the benefit of what height the structure possesses.

Don't despise the little patch of ground for a vegetable garden. Even n little pocket - handkerchief sized patch will produce something worth while. A stalwurt tomato plant trained to a stake can be grown in a foot square of ground, and training a single trunk to s stake is the very best and the Ideal way of growing tomatoes. It Is wasteful to allow them to sprawl over the ground In the way where If Is Impossible to gather the tomatoes without Injur-ing the vines, and when a portion of the fruit is likely to rot from contact with the earth. Accommodate the vegetable that can be planted closely to the size of the garden. Even a 3 by 5 patch would grow lettuce, radishes and young onions for a number of meals for a small family. A 10 by 10 garden, which Is usually within the reach of anybody who has any garden room at all, will give substantial return. It wouldn't accommodate much In the way of sweet corn, potatoes or melons, but It would take care of tomatoes, peppers, radishes, young onions, car-rots, a few beets, string beans or other vegetables that do not need too much room. i So That's That! r HeX,Y COWES .V'Wf MtCKie Vms SVyr) T ASK K)K H r1 ' SL?

For strengthening the garden's color forces in blue, no annual Is so good as ageratum. It grows well upon al-most all soils, and through a wide range of climate ; for that reason many combinations with It are possible. The plants are easily grown, neat, bushy, and erect, with a continual profuse clustering of pretty bushlike flowers throughout the season. The dwarf blue sorts make fine borders and ore much used where contrasting color ef-fects are desired.
