any progress with him accord him trif-

creased in proportion to his afTahility
and his interest in you. Your woman

you to judge whether or not you have
found favor in his sight and to act ac-
cordingiy. Should there spring up be-
tween you a mutual regard, treat him
to some of those dainty feminine
touches which are indescribable, not
because they are womanly or wrong,
brt because their language Is mute and
sacred to .he two persons most con-
cerned. Do not always agree with
him; 1t Is sometimes wiser to agree to
disagree. If you have a spark of wit

will doubtless follow the eXhortation OF
the prophet, and thus find favor with
you and the Lord. Should your innate
modesty rebel somewhat at this sug-

remembering that 1t Is indeed your leap

womanly, nesting creature you ought
to be, he must have proposed long ago.
If he has not, discard him. for either he
