Advice From Harmony Aidsworth
Dear Miss Harmony Aidworth,
With the fog covering Hogsmeade and Irvingly, the season has not been a very good one. I am desperate for my daughter to be married off as I fear she might end up like Miss Annabelle Scrimgeour if she is left without the proper guidance of a husband for too long! She has already begun speaking of getting a job like she is some common serving wench! There is nothing wrong with women working if they need to but our family is very much not the sort that needs to have their womenfolk resort to such things! What can I do to both improve her prospects and keep her from doing something rash like finding employment?

Sincerely,
Mrs. Old-fashioned

Dear Mrs. Old-fashioned,
The fog has put quite the damper on any social events that might have occurred within Hogsmeade, that is for certain! I am sure your daughter is only speaking of getting a job out of boredom or perhaps, she feels it would be a better way to meet potential matches given the lack of social events. Maybe you could take it upon yourself to throw one yourself! A dinner party within your own home with invites to the men you think might be ideal for your daughter with parlor games for entertainment could do the trick! I would also suggest that you try and find hobbies for your daughter to partake in at home so that she doesn't have to go searching for excitement beyond the walls of your home.

Sincerely,
Miss Harmony Aidsworth

Dear Miss Aidsworth,
The fog has been definitely troubling. The lack of magic has meant that my beau has come to call and seen me sans beauty charms and potions for the very first time in our courtship! And now he claims to not recognize me at all. At first, I thought that he was having a laugh but it seems that he is being quite serious! He is convinced that I am some charlatan seeking to take over my own life. He will not believe me no matter what I say! What can I do to convince him that I am the very woman that he has been declaring missing to anyone that listens to him? My parents have tried to convince him but he insists that they are also charlatans because both my parents look their actual age instead of the age they made themselves through use of magic! You must help us!
Miss I Am Not My Own Imposter

Dear Miss I Am Not My Own Imposter,
My, that is quite the conundrum! The fact that he can't recognize any of you sans magic is quite puzzling. Have you tried telling him things that only the lot of you would know? Perhaps try and write to him through correspondence? How you look would not alter the tone and way you speak in letters, after all! Perhaps have a chaperoned meeting with him where your face is obscured so that he can recognize your voice and inform him of what has happened. And if magic returns, I would recommend not changing your appearance so drastically in the future.

Sincerely,
Miss Harmony Aidsworth
