libaries must be Just fine. Living in
Fairmont, she said, made one so pro.
yincial
Perhaps 1t does to certain extent,
answered one of the men, but 1t hap
pens that right here in Fairmont,
have met woman who is not only
the loyeliest person I've ever met
(and I've Travelled some) but she is
also the scleverest, wittiest, and thu
dndest person I've ever known. That
may be strong, but it's close to the
truth.
''who is this wonder?" he was ask.
ed by one of the women. Evidently
the lady he had in mind was not pres
sent.
sshe must be nameless, but the
point Is. don't think she has friter-
ed away a whole lot Of time on art
galleries or grand operas"
And does she know how much you
love her?, sarcastically asked one OF
the women.
taeShe does not, and never shall. In
fact, Ishare no right to even think OF
her, which do every hour Of the
day
aha" says one man. Engaged. or
married?'
Speculation is not only the life OF
trade Its also fine mental exer-
else. But to end the discussion, let
me say that a man need not go away
from Fairmont to find one who is SO
sweet physically that les a pleasure
to ever come near her. SO clever that
she's delight always and-that's
ally and he refused to talk about her
any more.
And so he left three women, more
or less in a huff, two husbands and
another man very much amused and
has refused on one pretext or another
to; go back, although invited several
y times.
And they're all wondering If he
really meant all he said, and it so,
who is she?
READER.
Now. then my dear readers, start
right In guessing. I've been hard at
IL ever since the letter arrived. If
there Is anything more invigorating
than having ones curiosity aroused
don't know what it is. AS the writer
says. speculation is fine mental ex-
ercise. II am sure II the woman knew
she had aroused such fine love she
would be proud indeed. Don't you be
slieye she would. Real love OF the
purest kind is always wonderful
thing-a love which harms no one.
