There is no rule against either bride

say 'goodby, and Grace evidently had
nothing pressing on hand and felt so

seemed to reflect that l might have
something to do besides S9ssip with
her and she rang Off. but I was fifteen
minutes late at Ethers 1Be matter

It is the place Of the young lady to
stop the conversation. The younger
should always wait for the elder Of

And beware how you call the name
OF your unseen friend until you are
suse. The other day O young man re-
sponded TO a ring aud, after a mo.
ment's talk, exclaimed. How good in
you. Emma, to call me upl" Coldly
came the rejoinder, This is not EN-

been proposed in place Of 1t, but when
