Young people, however much in love
and blind to their surroundings, should
endeavor to keep the fact in mind that
other people in the full possession OF
their sober senses and not Immediately
concerned. are not blind, and are not, on
the other hand, prone to ridicule symp-
toms of 'softness' exhibited on the
street or in public places. A pedestrian
was very much amused one evening
last week at a little comedy enacted
before him as he was vending his
homeward way. It was still early in

point in his route where the over-arch-
ing branches Of tall trees made an
in. when just in front of him he noticed
that which nearly sent him into spasms
of laughter and caused him to slacken
his pace materially. Two young people
in their early twenties were pacing

picture. it viii perhaps serve to demon
strate to them the advisability Of keep
ing ones most sacred feelings where
il is not possible for the humorous eye
of the public at large TO spy upon and
scoff at them
