WAIT FIVE YEARS.

Dear Miss Fairfax:
I am 81 and am very much In
love with a girl OF 20. She loves
me very much, and we would
gladly marry, the only objection
being a clause OF her fathers will,
which states that she Will lose
her legacy Of $4,000 II she marr4es
before the age Of 20 She is will
ing to lose the legacy, but l can
hardly bring myself to the point
Of letting her make the sacrifice.
ANXIOUS.
Her fathers last wish was that she
should not marry under the age Of 25,
and she must consider that, though
no legacy attached.
The five years of waiting will not
he long If YOU sincerely love each
other and l trust you love her so
much you will insist after marriage
that her little fortune remain person
ally hers. and not be driobled away
on rent and bacon.
