I might! add, I have no one else to consult as my parents are several ™Monsand miles from here. | Thave been keeping company with a young lady who wants | er own way most of the time. Now, what I want to know | is: Shall I let her have her way all of the time? I am afraid! I can never get along with a woman who must please herself all of the time. I cannot say I love this girl, but I have a very strong feel- _ ing for her and think I would be happy with her. The only ' drawback is that she is getting so lately she doesn’t seem fo) care whether I call her up any more or not. But when | ‘am out with her she treats me fine. She does not care to go) to vaudeville or other shows—says picture shows are good enough for her, and will not let me spend much money on her. Several times she has told me she liked me better than any ‘one else, but still insists on having her way. Here is what) I want to know: Should I keep up my company’ with her or} ot? I have kept company with several girls, and so far this is the only one I really thought I cared for. What would be} % r advice—to forget it, or not? GEORGE, ' © I fear you have much to learn concerning the traits and ec- tentricities of the fair sex. Did you ever know a woman who didn’t want her own way? I don't know how old you are, dit unless you are over 60, I should venture to say you have not met one. The good old days when woman always deferred to man’s judgment in everything, great or small, when “mother” always looked to “father” to make up her mind for her, when she always submitted to his dictates, no matter ho w unjust they might seem—those days are gone, ‘ But why worry about this question with this girl? You | admit, yourself, that you don’t know whether you love ker, consequently, if you don’t like her treatment of you or her itude towards you, forget her. ace are as free as the wind and, if her actions distress you. you ar. not compelled to endure them one moment. If you fer a clinging vine to a woman with a mind of her own, ete this one and try another. That is the best way to solve the problem. q 2 I don’t know if you are contemplating matrimony or not, But the tone of your letter would indicate that you are leaning strongly in that direction. If you are, let me warn you that the Faults that you now find in the girl, when you see her only casionally, will be magnified a hundredfold thru the con- stant association of marriage. ‘Another word of advice is that you should not contemplate matrimony with a woman whom you merely “think” you care for. You want to be dead sure that you love her—that you hite for Fall Is Fashion Decree + THE BOOK OF DEBORAH DEB’S THEORY OF HAVING CONSTRUCTIVE IDEAS LOOKS Perhaps it was because I wouldn't touch Bob's hand, nor walk close to him; perhaps it was because I made no further comment on his muc jappearance at the gate of the Miller | grounds, that Bob grew nervous and kept on talking about Katherine's | wish to adopt her baby, Bob said #0 nuch that, to my suspicious mind, he sald too much, 1 recalled the French saying: “Who excuses himself, | himaeif!"* | If there were nothing important to jexplain, why did my usually reticent husband explain at length and elab- orately? | An hour later I was vainly trying) | to put myself to sleep by counting | monotonously, or by mpelling out fa millar poemm, letter/by letter.
