Sweetheart>—Mother Who “Doesn’t: Under- stand”—How to Treat Jealous In-Laws. DEAR MISS DIX: I am 22 years of age, and am keeping company with a very nice young man about my age who Is going to college. It will probably be five years before we can think of getting married. Do you think that T am taking a risk in waiting for him? Would a girl still have a chance of finding some one after she was 277 MADELINE. Answer: You have about one chance in a hundred of your boy sweetheart remaining faithful to you, and that is a mighty poor risk, and one that you will be very foolish to take. Conslder the*question fairly yourself. The young man is starting off to college at the formative time of his life. He will be molded by the assocfations of the next five years. He will be thrown into a different atmosphere from that in which you live. His associations will be different. His tastes, his habits, his opinions, his point of view will be altered. To all intents and purposes, he will come away from college an entirely different man from the one who entered it. He will be a stranger to you, and you will be a stranger to him, and it is just a chance whether you will llke each other or not. You may not appeal to him at all after the girls he has met in college. You may not find him in the least attractive in his new gulse. Tt will be a great handicap for him to go to college an engaged man. He should not have anything on his mind but his books. A sentimental entanglement will certainly distract his attention from his studies. But your side of the bargain will be the worst, because a long engagement wears more upon a girl than it does upon a man. It puts a woman in a position where she is neither fish, nor flesh, nor #ood red herring. She is neither bond nor free. She has no man who is bound to her, and to depend on, as has the wife. She has no certainty even of the man ever marrying her, yet she is not free to go around and enjoy herself as a girl should. She must sit at home and suck her thumbs, and let her chances of having a good time and of marrying go by, while she waits for a man who may or may not come back. 1 think that a girl is more than silly—she is foolhard five-year engagement With any man. As to a girl's chance: husband after she is that also may be rated as a bad risk. By that time a girl has settled down into being a bachelor girl, and she has dropped out, to a certain extent, of the marrying cla: Also, she ha gotten choosy and hard to please. Of course, women do marry not only at but up to 57, but each year that a girl gets older diminishes her chanc DOROTHY DIX.

Somewhat the same effect may be gained from the material that is known as zanana—a remarkable cloth |that has a silk surface with a woolly underside and the effct of quilting. One of the newest ways in which quilt- ing is employed is in the embellish- ment of velvet and other coats. The sketch shows one of green velveteen quilted with silver thread and trimmed with chinchilla (Copyright, 1925.) HOW IT STARTED BY JEAN NEWTON. “Cat o' Nine Tails. The whole ided of corporal punish- ment is going into the discard. Yet we still hear children threatened, on occasions, with the “cat o' nine tails,” for centuries the accepted medium of punishment wherever whipping was the order of the day. As late as the first half of the nineteenth century, we are told, in our own Navy delin’ quent saflors were lashed to a gun and whipped with the cat o' nine tails. In the parlance of the sea, this form of chastisement was jocularly known as “marrying the gunner's daughter.” It was only in 1850, when Congress abolished corporal punish- ment, that this practice ceased. For the origin of the form of the “cat o' nine tails” itself we must go back further to the days of the Inqui- sition. In those days it was the con- ventional weapon for the jailer and executioner, its strands numbering nine, becaus» the number nine was credited with having supernatural powers in bringing about confessions and repentance of offenders.

PEATTIE Hay Fever Plants. The acursed hay fever season, which s0 many people fly to the North woods to avoid, lasts longer here in the Dis- trict of Columbia than in localities with shorter seasons, and for many the dangers are not yet over. It is not a very serious danger, to be sure, but when one considers that there we literally millions of hay-fever suf- ferers in the country, and that, while they are ill, their efliciency as well as their enjoyment is heavily curtailed, it puts hay-fever plants in the same light that we view cold germs—not deadly, but resulting in enormous waste of human energy. There is a doctor in Washington who s making a study of hay-fever plants of the District now, learni their blooming seasons. Some hay- fever plants come out in Spring, others in Summer and still more in Fall, so that only Winter is really free from hay-fever dunger. f That does not mean that vou have fo stay away three-fourths of the year. In fact, scientist are discovering that h fever patients are usually ceptible to one special pollen. They make tests with pollen injections to find out to which pollen you are sus ceptible, and then, if they know the local blooming season of that plant they can tell you when to take a vacation, and where to take it, for it must be in some region out of the plant’s range. Some of the common wind-pollinated plants of the District of Columbia in Spring are poplar, vernal grass, birch nd alder: in Summer, beware the grasses, plantain. amaranth and rag. week, and in Fall the sume applies, for many of these plants bloom until quite late in the season. Do not, how- ever, belleyve tales you hear about zolden rod causing hay fever; it prob- ably does not do so unless you get down and sniff the pollen up gr If you do this to any flower, nose. You may get hav fever. HOME NOTES BY JEN) sus- WREN. The original girandole was a wheel- shaped candelabra which became popular during the latter part of the seventeenth century. Later the form sketched developed with a convex mir- ror set in the center. Many fine exam. ples of these girandoles were in use during the late eighteenth and early nineteenth century both in this coun- try and in England. One usually sees them assoclated with the work of the master cabinetmakers of that era Sheraton, Hepplewhite and our own Duncan Phyfe—most often hung over mantelpieces and buffets. The one shown is of American origin. There are several of the same general type in various rooms on the lower floor of the new American wing of the Metropolitan Museum in New York City, where furniture of the later Georgian period is displayed in authentic settings.

AS we grow older the thrills are fewer in number and far less powerful. But the mem ory of those we once experienced lasts to illumine those that come tardlly and are so skimpy in their quality. My greatest one was that of the time when my father turned to me as I sat listening in respectful silence to what my elders were saying and asked, “What do you think, son”" I think I grew up right that min ute. I was filled with the glow of my sudden arrival at full membership and my contribution to the discussion lacked originality and weight, but it was certainly the most valued one to me. Ever after that I felt respon- sibility for all that concerned the family life. I, too, was supposed to think and be ready with my word. No more careless acceptance of things as they came after that. I was one of the grown-ups and counted. Now I neveree an eager-eved child sitting listening to the wisdom of his elders without longing to ask, “What do vou think, son, or daughter? What is going on in your head as you listen and listen and wait to hear the word? What would you say if you| had a chance and what would the| chance to speak and be heard do for Your I think we are too heedless of the| power of youth. We are too likely to What Tomorrow Means to You BY MARY BLAKE. Libra. Tomorrow's planetary aspects show | an improvement over those of today, and steadily assume a more benign and favorable nature, until. at noon or | a little later, they are excellent. They naturally are auspicious for all activi- ties associated with Sundays, and even go further and denote success for any work of constructive or instructive ef- fort. So far as the better emotions are concerned, they will be stimulated by tomorrow’s astrojogical influences, and if you yield freely and unreserved 1y to them vou will have no cause for regret. If you love a girl and have been afraid to tell her so, hesitate no | longer. If you love a man and have tried to keep the secret lock®d in your own heart, let him, in a way that all women know, share your blessed secret. Children born tomorrow will not, while enjoying excellent physical con- ditions during infancy, attain maturity without experiencing some of the “‘set- backs” to which most of us seem to be heirs. The signs denote that accident is more to be feared than illness. Tem- peramentally, they will be careles: reckless and full of bravado. They will resent discipline, but be easily amen- able to kindness, and persuasion will do for them what force could never accomplish. They will not apply them- | selves with any degree of assiduity to their studies, but they will be imita- | tive and apt, thereby gaining a reputa- | tion for knowledge which will be more superficial than profound. If tomorrow is your birthday you are very resourceful, quick and alert. Your personality is strong and at the same time attractive. It Is unfortunate that your resourcefulness is not em- ployed in tasks that will conduce to good results, instead of being used in trivial efforts that lead nowhere and get you nothing. You are prolific in ideas, but they, are invariably of a picayune character,’ and seem to fit more into a hand-to- mouth scheme than one destined to have a future. In other words, you live altogther in the present and make no mental reservation for the future. ‘While your life's balance sheet does not show a deficit, neither does it con- tain provision for a reserve fund. As a result of your cheerfulness and { never-failing optimism, your home life is happy and your kith and kin are devoted to you. . Well known persons born on thi date are: Rutherford B.
