Young men who give costly pres

occasion to want them back should
learn the age of the girl, if possible,
before they begin counting. 1t may
save trouble in the future. The New
York Supreme court has decided that
a Tilted lover cannot recover gifts
from a girl who is a minor. AS it
takes very long time for the aver
age girl, who is looking tor husband,
to get beyond eighteen or twenty, it
might be just as we'll to add the sug-
gestion that it might be safer to make
the presents after the marriage knot
was tied. But then, again, the
young man might find it more diff
cult to secure the presents after the
marriage than before. FIX.
