1t Is rather late now to answer this
letter, but you will gain nothing by
personal violence, Mr. Pike, and your
rival might turn upon you, for you know
that even the wheelbarrow will turn
when troddeu upon, and he might dis.
figure you.
Bide your time, James, and all will
be we'll. Would it not pay you to travel
the downward road few weeks and
thus interest Miranda in you? Some
girls seem to need man to reform and
prefer the lovely debauchee and rewey
to correct person, as they yearn for the
excitement of ennobling bad man. If
you think she is of a romantic turn of
mind, you might do this 1t will not
be disagreeable task by any means.
If you arc ignorant of how to lead
such a life, you can get popular book
that will help you, entitled HAT
