several years my senior. We have

will It be more proper for me to
wait until l hear from him?
Should I waste my time in keep
ing company with this gentleman
when he acts this way?
XANTHIPPE BRUNETTE.
Wait until you hear from him.
Since the man makes you unhappy
by unkind remarks you will be
happier in the end IL he does not
come back. Girls should realize
that man who 10 unkind before
marriage Is doubly 30 afterward.
Dear Mrs. Thompson: l am en-
gagged to q fellow that have gone

go to school together. He used to
90 with other girls and with other
fellows, but we always went back
to each other. He hasn't gone with
any girls for about three years and
have gone with boys at different
times.
A month ago I met q fellow al
a private dance. He and I have
fallen In love with each other, We
think. He has been out to see me
q few times and I enjoy his com.
pany very much.
