our readers and re news his offer following this weeks article should a girl who is engaged to likable young man make a practice of going out with another man this poser is put to me in the following litter i received from a reader i am 21 years old and am engag ed to be married to a boy of 20 ami we are both very much in love we are to be married late this summer a few months ago i met another young man and he appeared very in terested in me from the start lie asked me several times to go out with him and finally i did so since then we have been out quite a num ber of times i didnt tell my fiance anything about this because at first it didnt seem worth while and now i am rather afraid of what he may think although there is really noth ing between my new friend and my self apart from a little companion ship i should mention that my fiance is out of town for long periods and sometimes i jo get awfully lonely the trouble now is that my new friend tells me that he is very fond of me and says that he doesnt care for any other girl what do you think about this matter mr st ciair i am sending you specimens of each of our writings so that you can delineate our characters ac cordingly to deal firstly with the handwrit ing specimens your own writing shows you as having an extremely affectionate nature and you are quick to feel for others you are straight forward enough but the danger is that you may be influenced to easily by your emotions that in other words your present feeling of friend ship for no 2 young man will de velop into something stronger and really endanger your love for your fiance both the young men are apparent ly cleancut selfreliant and decent there is a slight difference in their temperaments your fiance is more reserved than your other friend not sc expressive of his feelings but he is just as capable of emotional feel ing that is his love will be just as strong and perhaps more enduring however on the whole there is no great basic difference between these two young men you could do a whole lot worse than marry either of them i do think though that you have not been entirely playing the game with your fiance i dont for a mom- en suggest that you have been un derhanded in any deliberate way for i believe you were entirely genuine in seeking a little companionship the trouble arose in keeping it a secret from your fiance it is in hat angle that there appears some vestige of deception inadvertent per haps but nevertheless present and there is the danger that your relationship to your new friend will take on a more ardent form you are naturally generous and warmheart ed and arc capable of responding to emotional appeals i suggest that you endeavour to discontinue meeting no 2 young man after all you are in a measure being unfair to him too in giving him hope that he may be more to you than he has been in the past and you are certainly walking on thin ice so far as your engagement is concerned 1 jubilee label 33 v lb

some period of its long life to explode like the one which flared up last winter in the con stellation of hercules some stars may explode more than once for all anybody knows why they blow up is a mystery becoming a nova as it is called is probably a stellar dis ease in which case the eruptive im pulse is entirely internal it is pos sible however that the outburst may he the result of an external ac cident to the star such as an en counter with a relatively dense cloud of cosmic gas or dust since the sun is a star there is good reason to believe either that it already has had its fling as a nova or that it will become a nova at some time in the future the lat ter possibility is a bit disconcerting because life on the earth could not survive such a catastrophe the earth itself probably would be con sumed it is therefore reassuring to learn that in the few cases where stars that later exploded were ob served before the outburst it was found that they showed fairly large fluctuations in brightness for sev eral years the nova which appear ed in the constellation of aquila in 1918 for example had been known for 30 years to be a variable star fluctuating between the 10th and 11th magnitudes the sun has maintained a gratifying equanimity throughout the period in which man has profited from its ministrations an increase of one stellar magni tude is no small matter it means that the star at maximum was two and a half times as bright as at minimum although changes have been observed in solar radiation they are relatively minute the sun shows no sign of serious instability its steady outpouring of just the amount of light and heat the earth requires is likely to continue for an indefinite number of millions of years the interesting suggestion is made by dr gustaf stromberg of the mount wilson observatory that explosive outbursts in stirrs may re sult in the formation of planetary systems if that is the case the sun surely has passed through the nova tage at least once the idea is as dr stromberg expresses it that matter ejected from a star during an explosion gradually settles down into planets and satellities every socalled new star that appears in the firmament may be a signal that a great planetary construction job has been started it is not unlikely that the now- popular tidal theory at the origin of planetary systems will go the way of its predecessor laplaces nebular hypothesis it always puts a tremendous strain on the laws of probability to believe that a passing star once had such a close encount er with the sun that it drew out of the sun great streams of matter which later condensed into planets stais in general are so far apart that such close brushes must be extreme ly rare dr strombergs idea makes a stronger appeal to comrcn sense it also revives the pleasant picture of a universe filled with possible abodes of life the tidal theory as expounded by jeans and his fol lowers made man a lonely creature in an almost

europes monarchs most of tt published descriptions of king georges silver jubilee have stressed first the continuing loyalty throughout the twentyfive past years of the british people to their sovereign then the periods great changes in the worlds history and in the british empire it has certainly been an eventful quarter century yet it may be doubted whether any reign of equal or greater length in europe will not have wit nessed similarly impressive often equally momentous vicissitudes of history accustomed as we in amer ica are to a chief magistrates tenure cf four or at most eight years a period usually too short for thorough going political or social changes to come about we are not in the habit of associating them with one rulers oilicial tenure lincolns term and wilsons perhaps come nearest to presenting such a picture but twentylive years especially when they have included such an episode as the world war will necessarily serve better to portray a changing era king georges reign has not been long when compared with that of nu merous previous sovereigns in eng land and on the continent queen victorias sixtyfour years on the throne from 1837 to 1001 far over tops it the famous diamond jubi lee of 1897 celebrated the sixtieth anniversary of the queens accession elizabeth reigned fortyfive years george iii occupied the british throne for sixty louis xiv of france for seventytwo there were other european sovereigns who governed during nearly or quite half a century with all of them the reign was a landmark for momentous changes in the history of their country often of the world we speak habitually of the vic torian era forgetting perhaps that the england at the beginning of that reign was as unlike the england in the middle of it as the england when it ended a series of what were in those days described as social revolu tions had altered both the manner of living in england itself and the piaco of the countrj in the world into elizabeths long reign wev crowded the firm establishment of protestan tism in england the huguenot wars en the continent the great voyages of discovery the rise from obscure beginnings of an english literature in some respect unequaled since that day the defeat of the spanish arma da and the achieving of predomin ance for england in european af- airs for its lights and shades the long reign of louis xiv stands almost by itself when the old king died at tho age of 77 he had seen as ruler of france the creation of the most bril liant court and literature in french history something like french hege mony over the rest of continental europe a series of brilliant victories by his generals followed in the end by a series of disastrous defeats in the marlborough campaigns and the relegation of france to a secondary place abroad he had witnessed tho rise of the dutch republic the meteoric career of charles xii of sweden the struggle between british parliament and crown the protect orate of cromwell the restoration of the stuarts and the english revolu tion of 1689 down to the establish ment of the hanoverian dynasty it was little wonder that voltaire should have named his history of the period siecle dc louis quatorze whether he wrote in it of france or of other countries every reader understood the appropriateness of the title george vs twentyfiiveycar reign will necessarily be associated with the war and with the economic and political disintegration which ensu ed it can hardly be said that the period has rounded out an episode in history as did the reigns of eliza beth of louis or of george iii for that history is still too much visibly in the making what the jubilee celebration brings most forcibly to mind is the extent to which england j pnd the empire jiave stood four square during the chapter of political confusion in this rapidly changing era the ovation by england to its king is at least a symbol of the power with which british institutions and the british constitution
