She has Ills of ioa )n which she becomes very ueasiii Anything I mention in regard to my lut'iue plans is snapped up vA answered with some rutting remark. She keeps telling me that when I am married she will never bother nie and she never expects to see me at all. Now we have our little homo and are furnishing it.

My mother shows no interest and If 1 dare to mention she has one of her blue Ills again, It Is verv rilseourii'hng to me. I want to lalk to her about everything. She is such a wonderful mother In everything else. She tells me continually how all these years she has raised me and now I can forget all her because of a man. There is no use trying to talk her out of it.

It can't be done. W'at Is the best Ihlng for me to do? I'm so with the way she treats me. I try to do everything for her, but al! I hear is remarks about my forget, ing her. Are all mothers like this when llieir daughters marrv? I try to feel that it is because she loves me so much, but it a queer way of expressing it. How can I make her sympathetic with ine, and realize I cm n'-t going miies away to forget all rbout her? Please try lo Ml me if von ran.

I want her to share mv hatmhiess at this wonderful of my life. H. V. My dear Your mother evidently is suflering from sex Jealousy, whether she realizes It or nSt. Like all jealous people Is selfish, or she would not mar this happy period of your Ufa by being so disagreeable.

No, most, mothers are not like that; as a rule they are happy in the happiness of their child. I am sorry for you, my dear ''If. l.ut I do not believe that there is much you can do, except to try to ignore her treatment. HELEN WORTH. Name a -ill Address Aid (Jurst.

All the girls of my age, or even older, think about is boys, going tn parties, and the few boys I see or know at school just run around witii ro brains at all (at least they don't show iinyl. I expect some day to be an artist and artists usually appreciate the hieher things of life. I know I do.

hut I have never had the pleasure of knowing one who does. Some people say I am queer and have the "artistic temperampnl," which usually goes with on artist, and lairh at tlvj things I love and call them "bunk." I have always thought all good men were in heaven, but if "David" is what he says he deserves to have the best pal there Is on this earth and I he finds one soon. To quote "David." I hope some day to find some one "who ran see beyond the horizon Into the sunest," but all I ran do is hope. I suppose when I go to Brooklvn to study art I shall be as lonely as "David," hut some people live Dn hope, and I am one of them. I hope, dear Helen Worth, I have not bored you and wish you all the happiness there is because you bring so much sunshine throueh vour column.

Dear Helen Worth--I am not a wonderful penman but I som-' advice, so will you be kind enough to tear this letter and aiibwer as souu as you ran? I am a young fellow 22 years of age and my trouble is girls. I never bother witii them. Why? Weil, I don't know-why; but, well, here is lhy story. Two months ago I met a gir. that had worked in the same office as I did.

She invited me to call her up some time. Two weeks later I was feeling blue and melancholy, so I gave her a ring. Well, we made-a dale if met her downtown). We went lo a show ami I had a wonderful time. seeing her home, I a.skert permission cm hiki uien, Helen Worth.

I was given a Jolt and mv eveuln-' was ruined. She informed me sin-was going out regularly for the past three years with a young man who is in nis second year at one of the best and most popular colleges in our city. She sr.1 she enjoyed my company. nc, mm woiuci iikc in near irom mo again some time. Well, since then I 'yen nor oui lour times.

I have always met her downtown. Last night I took her to a party and had a wonderful time. All my friends liked ner ana sue seemed very pleased with them. However, when seeing her home she said, as usual, call me up again some time, which I promised to do. Now, Helen Worth, what would you do if you were in mv place? Would you call again In the 'near future or not? I did not sav the girl in question has a very good position, owns her own car and is pretty well off.

She is my own age 122 vearsi. Her steady boy friend is well off, too. His people have plenty of money and he also Is my age. As for myself, well, I em just a $30 per week clerk, and that is about all. My education is only a few years In hlirh school, I really never bothered with girls lo any extent.

But, rrallv. I am afraid I am thinking more of this girl I e.m referrlmr to than I should. In tart, I am afraid I will lose her friendship and miss her wonderful ways. I hope you ran make some sense out of this letter. But do you think I am wasting my time or she Is trying to convey to me not to bother 'any more? s.

Raisin Bread. 1 pound flour y-: cupful sugar 3 eggs 3 teaspoonfuls baking powder To Beautify Hair, Stimulate Nerves, Try Daily Massage By LOIS LEEDS. The purpose of scalp massage is to increase tii2 flow of blood and to loosen the scalp. During the massage the nerves that supply this part of the head are gently stimulated.

There are different systems of massage, but they all aim at the same result. Below I am describing a series of massage movements that anyone can do at home. Begin by placing the lingers of bo'h hands at the hairline on the forehead. Keep the finger- tips firmly pressed do.vn and rotate the do not let them slide over the scalp. Rotate in this matter 10 times.

Now move the lingers up toward the crown of the head about two Inches beyond the hairline. Repeat the rotary movement. Move th fingers up another two inches and repeat. Place the fingers of your right hand on your right temple and rotate them onn'tlr Dn llnf rinktp I IIP skin. This movement stimulates the nerve at the corner of the eye.

Move your fingers up toward your crown and massage this side of your head in the same way in which you have just massaged the renter and top. Massage the lelt side with your left hand. Now place vour fingers on the hairlines behind 'your ears and give the same rotary massage upward at intervals of about two inches. Place the fingers of your hands on the crown of your head and the thumbs at. the nape of your neck.

Give a rohiry ma.ssage with the thumbs. Each of these movements should be repeated ten times. Fend your head forward and give a deep. massage from (he shoulders up the back of the neck and upward along the spine, starting a far down as you can reach. The whole massage treatment should take lrom 10 to 13 minutes.

There have been a number of requests recently for a treatment lo rid the hair of vermin, so I am going to give a few hints on that subject today. The nit is the larva or immature of the louse and it adheres firmly to the hair, even after tli" lice have been killed. This is why It is necessary to shampoo very thoroughly and even lo scrape oil the nits Saturate lie heir with a mixture of equal parts of tincture of larkspur and ether.

Direct htler, to HELEN WORTH.

Therefore do not let such trifles vuny you. The. trouble most men find in life has to do with young, old or Indifferent! Therelore you are not alone in your perplexities. It would seem to me that the girl is trying lo play fair and is making an honest effort to keep you from falling in love with her. Now, since "out of sight, out of mind" is to certain extent truth, my advice is tlia'.

you try to find some one else to share your leisure hours. It's useless to keep going out with the young lady and trying not to care, therefore my advice is that you seek a new friend and endeavor to forget tills girl whose Interest lies in another direction. You can if you will! HELEN WORTH. One Author's Opinion-Of Demanding Women. Dear Helen Worth Apropos of an argument between two readers of your column, can you tell us If F.

Scott Fitzgerald, youthful author, at one time made the statement that nil women over a certain age should be shot? As near as remember, all this talk happened a little over four years ago, and The Sunday Eagle carried the story and the answers Scott" received in reply. I think Miss Fannie Hurst, was one of the wrmen who answered him. Can you tell us just what It was that P. Scott FUzierald said, why he said such a thing and what the answers were to such a statement that nil but Uic very, very vmmir women should be mit out of the way? Please help settle tins ar- gumcnt. THE TWO OF US.

P. S. Please tell us all you can about it, also your opinion of the honorable F. Scott's statement. My dear "Two" Your memory surprisingly good I For most per sons will say, "about four years," but when a (becking up process is made, the statements are usually inaccurate.

Research reveals that on March 9, 1921, an interview with F. Scott Fitzgerald was published in The Brooklyn Dally Eagle. Close scrutiny of three full columns of this article reveals nothing but tucked away in almost the last paragraph the following lines appear; "He" (referring to F. S. "says that all women over 23 should be murdered." Fil.Tjerald then explains: "I mean the women who.

without any of the prerogatives of youth and beauty, demand continual slavery from men. You know the type. They sit back complacently and let their husbands slave for them, they demand continual attention. They arc harridans and shrews, who continually nag and scold until the men are driven idiotic." There uidcth the question. My own opinion? Well, shooting seems rather and so does hanging by the thumbs! Seriously, I think there are many women such as this author describes, but I think the vapidity of fheir lives serves as sufficient punishment for their sins! And that's that! HELEN WORTH.
