Neuralgia' Lumbago Rheumatism When I was a little girl I lived on the edge, the shore of a prairie that stretched like a rolling green and purple sea to the foot of a 200-mile-long rampart of the Rocky Mountains. From our front garden, bursting with poppies, yellow roses and silver leaf maples every westerner knows them I could look down a billowy green valley and down on a ranchhouse that stood in it like a toy. Across its face ran a long veranda ffvery rail and baluster magically detailed in that crystal air through which you can see the blue shadows in the canons of Pike's Peak some 80 miles away. And every day for a few years there walked on this veranda, up and down, from the south end to the rail at the north and back again and buck again the other way, up and down, hour after hour, the figure of an old man. Like a tiny, model figure of a sailor man.

"His beard was white, and his hair. He held his hands folded behind his back. He wore a dark blue coat and a dark' blue cap, and his white beard blew in the prairie wind like the spume from an ocean wave. He was a Nova Scotia man a sea captain! Forty years on trie sea, the last 20 of them skippering his own ship from Nova Scotia to the West Indies. A sea captain on the prairies! And now he had retired, well off, to live the rest of his life with his daughter and his gran'childrcn, who had made the far cry from Nova Scotia to the prairies of Colorado and come to nest at last a half a continent away from the sea! For a year or two he walked and then one day he was gone.

HOMESICKNESS. For ships and the ocean. The old sea captain had gone back to the Atlantic. We never saw the old man in tho blue Jacket and cap or his white beard blowing in the wind again; nor, either, did the daughter and gran'chlldren in the ranch house. For he was very old and he died at sea.

AVell, those who leave the prairie sea for the big blue one of profound, deep waters are homesick, too. There are prairie girls not exactly "cow girls," either wedded to the big city that is called the Port of New York, and wedded to a successful man of the city, who suddenly smell pine trees, hear magpies and larks, feel the prairie wind on their cheek, see the red mesa and the silvery sage brush and wish themselves violently where those things ar when he plays certain music And HE doesn't know it at all. I have often thought that if married people understood better that each of them must have, and indulge in, their particular little homesicknesses for the things they did or the places they knew before they were married, how much happier they could make each other. If a man loves a boat, the water's edge, and never gets to case the homesickness for them, some of him will die inside. If a woman is crazy about horses and hills, or a tiny rose garden or the big prairie, whatever it is, and never leaves an apartment and the stone pavement, she will change inside no matter how durable her outside looks.

Help the other fellow ease his homesickness and he will love you twice as much. NELL BRINKLEY. the bridal dinner this evening for their son, Dr. Thornton McKee Northey, and his fiancee. Miss Mary Dibble, daughter of Mr.

A certain friend of mine is giving a birthday party, to which I am invited. She has also Invited a friend with whom I would like to correspond because I very seldom see him.

The only time we meet is at a party or gathering. I like this young man and wish to keep up the friendship. I am always greeted cordially whenever he meets me and I always return the greeting. I think our friendly feeling is mutual. At this party would it be proper for me to ask him whether he would care to write to me? Or would this be out of the way? DOTTIE DEAR.

Let him take the initiative, Dottle Dear, when it comes to the question of correspondence. Possibly, he may not care about corresponding with you, so your asking him to write might put him in an embarrassing position. Why do you not invite him to call at your home if you wish to encourage his friendship? It is a young woman's privilege to extend this invitation to men she knows and likes and some young men wait for such an invitation before calling.
