Dear Miss Fairfax:

times a week. | have told her Of

her within three years. She is
aware of the splendid chance l
have to make good in the place of

with the proposition that she will
some day be mine.
But when We are bidding each
other good night and in each 9TH
er's arms, she frankly admits that
she does not love me as yet, but
that she is trying real hard to.
She admits that she likes me a
good deal
Can love be accomplished by
trying or should it come natural
ly? ID. T.
Love is not matter of human will
