bwith both Please tell me which one I
should take and if 1 take, the one, I love,

What people say should be the
least of your worries. Tell them
that there is no accounting for

man is by far the best bet. He'll
cause you the least worry. The other
IS probably more or less conscious
OF his charms and would require
the incense of admiration to be
burned at his shrine indefinitely,
which makes lots of work.
If you love the first young man
when he has nothing but his person
ality to recommend him, you can
BE fairly certain he would wear
splendidly as a husband. After we
are with a person a great deal we
are not particularly conscious of
their looks, but their dispositions,
