$ old saying, “Truc love neve: runs smooth,” applies just as well in the twentieth century @s ft did in the days gone by. Re- cently I have received a number of letters from young men and women whioh all toll of foolish quarrels, tifts | and misunderstandings. All of the letters express deep feeling and de- votion and ask advice about “patch- ing” matters up. As a word of warn-| ing to all young lovers, I would sug- gost that you be open and frank with tach other in all conversations, When | unpleasant incidents occur and you cannot agree, sit down and think Courtship and Marriage | Stubborn Natures Are Not Con- ducive to Smooth Love-Making departure for the army I became ac- quainted with @ beautiful young woman.

Viola Z writes: “I know @ young man who has been keeping regu company with me for three months, He has been to my house quite often and my parents and relatives like him very much. About ten days ago I} had a conversation with him over the| wire and he asked me if he might call that same evening.

[explained all this to her and she said that she was well pleased with me the way I was. I tried to return to her since our tast quarrel but was jilted because she said ‘she was made a fool of and was done playing with fire’ 1 am deeply tn love with her and wish to marry her, but do not know how to win her back. Kindly advise in your column.” Probably the best thing you can do is to “say it with flowers." Some- times “the least aaid the soonest mended” you know, and then, starting to talk about a thing or even writing about it simply opens up the old ques- tion again.

NITS IN THE HAIR—Margaret G.: The treatment for nits, which h heen requested by many, Is the same as that for vermin in the hatr, and when the nits do not disappear with the vermin, the treatment must be repeated after twenty-four hours, The use of @ fine-tooth comb is also rec- ommended in helping to remove the dead nits which have not been washed outin the shampoo. Saturate the hair and roots with tincture of larkspur, and then tie !t up until the next morning, Then give the hair a thor- ough soap shampoo @nd rinse well. This is harmless and kills vermin.
