Mothers sometimes hate the idea of part

very tactful and a misconceptions. she
may manage her son without his sus-
pecting it, and in one way or another
preserve her ascendancy over him, and
keep that girl waiting an indefinite
time.
TO tell the plain truth, Agatha is in a
very delicate and difficult position. She
cannot take the initiative. No girl who
respects herself can beg her lover to
name the wedding day. This is his pre-
