TWO LETTERS—ONE ANSWERS THE OTHER AS NEARLY AS SUCH ‘QUESTIONS ARE ANSWERED ere is one form of a question which never stays settled. en usually ask it and they supply the most interesting to Women seldom write at length on the subject. The following letters arrived in the same mail—a curious | Gnd not wnisual coincidence: # Miss Grey: I am a man 21 and go with two young One is 20 years of age and the other 29. I have N going with the older for a year and I regard her very highly. T have reason to believe that both the young women BOK upon me with favor, but my relatives prefer the younger. ey esteem the other girl, but tell me that it is a great mis- td for two persons of such different ages to go together. it would you advise me to do? ” Here's the other letter which comes as a direct answer to one above: Miss Grey: Ten years ago I was keeping company with a girl two years my junior. I had been going with her four years and was very fond of her. She was not an educat- ed but she was refined and good looking. My family lighted, my friends liked her, and all took it for grant- that we would marry. | _ At this time I met a charming woman'ten years older than I, And I fell deeply in love with her. She was all that I ever to see in an ideal womant She did not look her age. Was educated and had the most beautiful of dispositions. She became to me almost an eugel. She had many admir- ¥ SMART SPORT CLOTHES FOR ALL PASTIMES fs and could have married any of them. Ours seemed at Tirst a platonic friendship, but with my growing love for her felt she loved me. She knew my sweetheart and that I still professed to love the girl. One day she said, “Marry X—and you will please your peo- ple and yourself. When I'am ten years older I will look like mother. Your people would be dissatisfied, and so ould you.” Her wisdom was great, her influence strong. “X” became iy wife ten years ago. Today I am the most miserable of I did not marry the girl I loved. She is as youthful and utiful as when I left her. She is still single. She looks inger than my wife. She deyotes her life to charity. She educating a poor boy. A think of her continually.
