Dear Miss Doom;

never talk. of getting married. Don't
you think he would say something il he
intended to make a home for her? She
has a diamond ring, but does not say
1t Is an engagement ring. I do not
think he has a right to spoil my daugin-
ter's life. She says ne loves her, but
I don't see where the love comes in,
do you? Is it my place 10 ask him what
he intends to do? know my daughter
will be angry II I do. but do not like
to see her waste all of her time. He
may throw her over. after waiting FOR
him. WORRIED MOTHER.
Perhaps there are good reasons for
his silence on the marriage subject.
He may have to support his parents.
However. I think your daughter should
confide In you, no matter what the
trouble may be. Your worries are only
natural. Why do YOU not go to her
and tell her exactly -how-you feel, and
ask for her confidence? It's the best
way, and I think she'll tell you. You
might make matters worse If you de-
mand a statement from the young man.

He would pay all his debts at once

On the whole his reflections were very

of self-importance very keen. Eva had
acted very discreetly in clearing out of
the Towers at once, and If she behaved
herself there was no reason why any
