THE DODGE CITY TIMES.
ANSWERS TO CORRESPONDENTS

marriages. Married in haste and repentio,
at leisure is too true You will probabl
profit by delay. marriage contract is 70
life; for better or worse-generally worse.
SALLY.-Giggling in church is improper
We know girls cannot sometimes contro
this weakness. 1t has become habit, an,
il beyond control even when restraint il sup
posed to be had in an assembly. The younl
ladies who practice eiggling use these sill
means to draw attention. We know they
giggle mos! when the Young men are about
They can suppress giggling in the presence
of aged persons, however.
MARY.-It is not proper for gentleman
to complete his toilet a, the house of d
stranger, unless he was driven from home
under the terror Of a broomst OK. Finely.
bred gentlemen are presumed to be au fail
in matters OF etiquette. and it Is selcom they
neglect backing boots at home. We never
knew Of gentleman deierriDg this cere.
mony until his arrival a, the place Of invi.
ta,ion.
GEoRoE-The noble attributes Of man
are not set off in store clothes, though q
handsome suit will add to the appearance
of q handsome man and show his manly
qualities. II clothes made men there would
be many fine men. The wearing of plug
hat tends to gracefulness. This is account
ed for from the fact that the wearer hes to
use decorum in order to keep the hat in
equilibrium. and consequently he is kept in
. stately poise.
HENRY.-We cannot say whether you
would make an editor. Some editors are
made Of poor stuff, and the profession is not
at fault for this lnadsptsbility. We know
of come editors Who would probably make
excellent hack drivers. The editorial bust
mes, is profession that draws into it incom-
peten; men, and the same may be said Of
every other profession. You say you make
an excellent herder. You had better stick
to that. You might spoil one good poi
ton by trying to lsarn ano,her.
JOE You should fret learn whether the
present would be acceptable before making
the presentation. Many people would deem
; il the highest impudence Of a person to be-
stow favois in that way, for they regard that
come sort of obligation would rest upon
them. II you are fast friends you can
readily determine whether the present would
be graciously received. In making a pres
ent to . young lady always consult her
taste. You might make present Of q bot
tie of cologne when vase Of flowers would
be desirable.
JIM.--The young lady no doubt meant
we'll. Your hardness compelled her to ac-
cept the company Of your rival. You
may attribute this weakness to woman'-
fckleness. Women are not constant until
after they are married and have house full
of children. Then they have something to
tie them down. We must say for their
credit that women by nature are more con-
slant than men. We can't judge either sex
BY the peculiarities Of few. Human ma
ture is made up Of the whole. The average
woman is constant lover, and the average
man is duiiful husband. The conditions
of each other should be learned before mar.
risge takes place. Many dad marriages"
might be avoided if the question OF compati- !!
bility was determined beforehand.
LoS.-The young lady, you say, has
broken of the engagement, and requests
you 10 return her photograph. 1t will also |
be proper to return all other mementoss Of
your former affection. The next time you
are in love you will understand that il i,
