I ask no fayors when 1 think they are not de- served, and, finally, don't wait upon the girls, when l think my attentions would be disagreeable. I am matter-offact man, l am. do everything seriously. l once of- fered to attend a young, lady home, if she wanted me. She accepted my offer, went home with her, and it has ever since been an enigma with me, whether she wanted me or not. I bade her good night and she said not word l met her next morning ard said not a word I met her again, and she gave me two hours talk. It struck me as curious. She feared I was offended, she said, and could not for the life of her, con- sceiye why. She begged me to explain, but would not give me chance to do so Snc said she hoped would not be offended, ask ed me to call, and it has ever since been Q mystery to me whether she wanted me or not. <. g
 Once saw lady at her window. l thought would cali. I did; l inquired for the lady, and was told she was not at home. I expect she was; went away thinking SC. I rather think so still. l met her again she was offended-said had not been neighborly. She reproached mo for my neg ligence; said she thought had been unkind. And I've ever since wondered whether she thought so or not. .. E A lady once said to me that she should like to be married, if she could get good, congenial husband who would make her hap py, or at least try to- She was not difficult to please, she said. I said I should like to get married too, if I could find wife tbet would try to make me happy. She said Umpb, and looked as if she meant what she said. She did. For when I asked if she thought she could be persuaded to marry me, she said sue would rather be excused. l have often wondered why l excused her.
