exclaimed.
Bobby would hate to think anybody
who was in the matrimonial market

"He likes to think he is pursuing some
body who doesn't want him. That's
the funny thing about most men. They
always want the girl who they think
doesn't want them. and thereby lay the
foundation for the divorce court pro-
ceedings right there in the parlor where
the proposal is going on. 1t is nearly al
