Our Jim says that leap year allows the
girls great privilege compared with other
years. 1t is the year in which they are al
lowed to "pop the question" to any young
man to whom they may take fancy, and
ill-luek is sure 10 follow in the wake OF
those young men who do not willingly
give their assent to the girls propositions.
Do not delay, girls, for "prOcrastination is
the thief of time, and it will be nine years
before you are again entitled to such
glorious privilege, as 1900 will not be
leap year. There are in this town and its
vicinity some excellent young men who
want to get married, only they are too
bashful to "pop the question:" and would
like some nice young ladies to do the task
for them. What chance there is for some
of the fair sex this year to take the in tia
tive and settle down TO married life and be
happy! Will you still put off your leap
year privilege, girls, and allow the time
to pass away without making an effort
