THE PROOFS OF TRUE LOVE.

An English author has recently bungled things
quite terribly in asserting that the ssAmerican wo-
had struck the first blow to the reign of love- "
We do not think he would have made such state
ment if he had been acquainted either with the
American women or the nature of true love.
American women are becoming more and more
enlightened, and, though she does not have the
privilege of asking, she does and should have the
privilege of accepting rejecting and whether she
does or not, should accept or reject man on the
evidence he is able to produce in confirmation of his
assertion that he loves her. Necessarily the first
questions confronting her has he provided to the
best of his ability for future home, and if not is
there sufficient evidence to justify her in believing
that he will! Has his money been spent for liquor
and cigars, or has he laid aside dollar or more
each week from his less meagre earnings
Does he love her truly that instead of being iea
Gus he would gladly see her marry another who is
better able to provide for her Are his acts in her
presence and to her knowledge such as would lead
her to believe that by carefuness on her part it
would be possible for him to provide for both with
possibility of an additional two or more (? And
last but not least, does he show such an appreca-
tion of his mother and sisters will command re-
spect and confidence of womanknd
Is not man by his failure to make proper efforts
to be in position to provide for home and family
responsible for many women entering the business
world We should teach our young girls that house
keeping is an honor, and home the highest ideal,
and our boys the Importance of providing for the
future and being true.

A New Swindle.

swindle. 1t is a clever one and unl, SIS
you are posted you might easily be
taken in by it. A stranger recent y
appeared at the hotel of John West

county, and stated that he had be Il
without food and money for two days.
He was taken,.to the dining room ard
told to eat all he wanted. When e
flushed the meal he drew his hand
kerehief from mis- pocket and so
note fell on the floor. The waitr5ss
picked it up and gave it to Westover,
who was angered by the attempt to
fleece him. Westover deducted 75 cents
for the meal and handed over $40. %,
which the man took and departed. Not
long afterward Westovera found the
bill to be counterfeit.
