If, however, a man's dress be regarded as an evidence of taste, an expression of personality and a symbol of success, it becomes a worthwhile accomplishment.

The example I have in mind writes me this letter from the hospital, where she has been since last August, laid up with sciatica and this and that. She is another war victim, for she contracted her illness in doing relief work in the devastated regions of France.

Just because this Is a very human old world, there are rifts now and then in the best of friendships. These are the severest tests of all.

So I say, boys and girls, marry 'or love and love only. It is the one permanent factor in happiness. It is perfectly possible to marry at the proper age and remain absolutely happy during one's married life, provided each partner to the contract Is ready and willing to make sacrifices and do his or her part.

We need them In this column, because we hear so much of miserable marriages that we need to be reminded that there is a reverse side to the medal, and that there are also successful marriages, and happy homes, In which husbands and wives love each other, in which there is companionship and mutual consideration, and where the dove of peace perches perpetually on the roof pole.

Should ho have his own way all the time or give the girl hers? P.

And the other way 'round. This is proved by two years of engineering tests. Records show: That PUROL gives 3.3 greater mileage. That it burns clean doesn't drip into crank-case Saving 14.2 of gasoline here. For this reason saves $2.98 on lubricating oil in a year in general repairs! On the average consumption of 500 gallons per car, the first two savings 87j gallons total $17.50.

The four, together, show a yearly saving of $30.81 30 of the average yearly gasoline cost! Make your own test An hour's driving with PUROL will show you new performance from your motor new power-new flexibility. Try it. Get PUROL at any Pure Oil Service Station or dealer's. You'll know them by the pumps painted "Pure Oil blue." It is a test worth making.

Go to see her often enough to keep her interest In you alive and prevent her from feeling neglected, but do not give her an overdose of your society. No matter how fond a woman Is of a man, she dues not want him perpetually under foot. And when you go to see a girl, don't stay too late. No human being can be interesting for longer than two hours at a stretch.

Most of us say everything we have to say Inside of thirty minutes. Whenever a girl begins to look at the clock, or smothers a yawn, or gets up and walks around the room to keep herself awake, take the hint and beat it. You are beginning to bore her, and boredom is fatal to love. As to how far a man should trust the girl he Is in love with, I should say all in all or not at all. There Is no hair-way house In faith.

You have to believe that a woman Is sincere and honorable and discreet or else that she Is unworthy of trust. I should certainly advise you not to marry a girl unless you have perfect faith In her. People who have to be watched nre not worth watching. It seems to me that neither a man nor a woman hiis a' right to have his or her own way all the time. Certainly the bocsing In a family should be a fifty-fifty proposition.

No one individual tins a right to expect others to make all of the sacrifices and do all the giving up.

Their idea is that a girl should be 25 years old before she thinks of' having any beaux. Now, I c.n't see how I am ever going to get married If they keep on like this.

My father says I must do ss he sn vs but I think that at 25 I will be too old to attract men. What do you think? DOTTY A. P.

Answer At So a girl is at her most attractive age. She Is a full-blown roe inst ad of the bud, and she Is generally more sought after than when she was younger, btit that Is only when she has been In the running all the time; when she has played about with men from the time he was 'IS. ir girl has never been permitted to have any masculine attention up to the time she is 2.1, she Is not likely to ever have any, and nothing short of a miracle will save her from being an old ma'd. She doesn't know how to play the love game. She doesn't understand the arts and graces with which women attract men.

She Is stiff and self-conscious In masculine society and men pass her by. Your parents are doing you a cruel wrong- In not letting you live the lite of a normal girl of your day and generation, and they are cer- I tainly blighting your chances of matrimony by not permitting you to have dates as other girls do.
