Before this time the Hudson River Railroad, which operated on the west of the island, was started, in 1851, with a etation at Chambers Street and West Broadway, the passenger coaches being hauled by horses to 30th Street, where locomotives were attached.

The average height of a boy of sixteen years is only 5 feet 51-2 inches, and as you are as tall as & boy of twenty 1 cannot understand why you wish to reduce. You should weigh for your helght 145 pounds. The fact that your face is stout is possibly what gives you the appear ance of being fatter than you really are, This would not disconcert me if L were you, because you will find the face slimming out as you gain your maturity. Instead of trying to reduce fifteen pounds you should take all of the exercises #o as to evenly distribute your weight. I certainly do not advise you to soak your food in vinegar unless you are very desirous of filling your sys- tem with acid which will ruin your digestion and lay the foundation for serious disturbances later, The after- bath rubs should be taken long enough to start a good, brisk circula- tion in the part under care; you will know this by the tingling sensation felt.

If he sees me talking to other young men he seems hurt: however, during all this time he has never asked me to spend an evening with him and at times he aots a little indifferent. Do you think this is due to his work, ‘as he holds a very high position? Can you tell me whether or not he cares for me and how | can be sure?

If one 1s desirous of retaining the freshness of youth, there is no wis- dom so sage as that of him who sald: “Two rs of sleep before midnight is worth six hours after.” Do not think, however, that we are net in favor of relaxing during the day. On the contrary, if you feel sleepy, court this feeling. Lie down, relax—you will arise refreshed even if your nap was but a quarter of an hour's duration.

Recently | received a letter from her revealing her first indiffer- ence and stating that she consid- ered everything final and did not care for me. Later she wrote ing she did care. She has a changeable disposition and says this is because she is only twenty to know her own no other man, and her mother says she is alwaye telling how wonderful | am.

Since you love this girl, however, and her parents appreciate you, it would probably be advisable for you to wait @ year or 0. “Dear Miss Vincent: Am eighteen and have been going bout wit rs my senior.
