You are all too young 10 take your

friendship is all that ought to be CON

with no idea OF conhning yourself 10
one especial young man and no doubt
when the first young man hears OF
this he Will come back again. Young
boys are generally rather sensitive as
10 whether or not they are wanted
and when he finds that you really
want his friendship he will probably
not object TO tho second young man
calling also.

Always wipe the stove every day
