Dear Miss Falrfsx; I am in love with
a young lady who lives In distant city.
Recently we have been dreaming of each
other a great deal We are not engaged,
and both are wondering n this dreaming
has any significance with regard 70 our
love. We are X. AND r.

Buying Presents
for Men
by BEATRICE FAIRFAX.

at know a young lady TO whom a
young man has been paying attention for
some time am anxious to know
whether It is proper for her to buy sew
eral ties for him. They are not engaged,
and the young man has never given her
present." writes Ardine.
And answer with fervor: Merciful
heavens. OF what is the girl Of today
thinking? She hasn't the gumptlon. tho
simple honesty. the economic independ-
ence or the sanction OF custom TO justify
her in marching up to tho man she ad-
mires and asking him quietly and cheerily
TO do her the honor OF accepting her
heart and hand And she has lost the
coy and alluring sweetness Of her grand
mothers day.
She balances precariOusly between the
determined and independent seeking OF
what she wants (Which may be hers
some day), and the charming eluslveness
of olden days. And between future pro-
posing and past seeming to run away
from a proposal, she tacks awkwardly
and ungracefully, neither quite daring
TO come out and ask for what she wants.
nor yet knowing how to invite Invita-
ton for herself.
But OF all the awkward maneuvers OF
which the girl OF today Is guilty, none is
more wantonly stupid than the habit OF
giving presents TO men.
II ought TO annoy self respecting man
TO have even a girl 10 whom he has given
gifts seek to make return in kind IL
surely must humillate him beyond words
To have a woman on whom he has Law
ished no offerings make him a present
But when that present takes the form
OF wearing apparel a man who Ia worthy
OF the title ought TO feel a choice inter-
mingllng OF the emotions Of disgust at
her poor taste. anger at her impudence
and sarcastic amusement at himself FOR
ever having liked a girl who could be
guilty OF so forward ana bungllng an at
tempt at winning her favor.
In the present state OF society good
| taste demands that man shall be the
wooer and woman the wooed. The first
intimati0n of serious intentions still
comes from the man. The first tokens
OF affection pass from man to woman
not vice versa.
II a man has given TO a girl friend
gifts of a simple and appropriately inn
personal sort then, at Christmas, on his
/ birthday or on some special occasion.
she may offer him a little remembrance.
! But unlimited. unwarrranted and unex-
pected gSs OF wearing apparel from
/ woman to man are about as awkward a
/ method OF usurping the wooing privilege
as ! can imagine. The selfish. stingy,
| self-seeking man who would be glad 20
exc out his wardrobe with decorations
purchased by a girls salary or her allow
ance from an unsuspecting father is the
sort no sane girl wants TO attract. And
any other type OF manhood would be re-
PEELED by sudden shower OF gifts from a
young person on whom he would have
lavished attentions had he cared TO as
sumo tender relations Of bestowsl with
/ her.
There Is no generosity in forcing your

is no appreciation for presents that

Restoration to former status imme
