Dave and Sally.


When Sally first met Dave she
promptly forgot all the bad things
she'd ever heard about him and pro-
ceeded to fall in love with him heavily
Not that people gossiped much about
Dave But they did say that he was
the most tickle young man in the city
and the least TO be trusted In matters
Of the heart.
Dave never sticks TO one girl for
single moment" other people had told
her. He doesn't believe in it, He
thinks it's wrong 10 let one girl get
him and keep him too long"
Anyway Sally didn't remember any
Of these little lectures. She loved Dave
loved her, and that was everything.
Well they rushed sound together
for about SIX months and then the
crash came.
Dave stopped coming to see her. he
stopped calling her up He just drop
ped her just as he had dropped dozens
Of other girls
Sally tried 10 drive him out Of her
heart. but She just couldn't. What
makes IL harder is that Dave whenever
he meets her draws her off 10 a corner
10 tell her that he's convinced she
doesn't really care--that he's come 10
realize there's no use In his seeing her
any more.
Sally has repeatedly assured him
that he's wrong. She's almost begged
him 70 come back, But he persists In
his mysterious references TO her cold
ness toward him-etc.. etc.
As result she's In perfect
"a Z. n tn
vince him that she really loves him
without making rather fool Of her
self
IT'S too darn bad really but there's
nothing for II, saIIy-but 10 put him
out of your life definitely and finally.
Dave is evidently what is known as
a slick worker. He has clever line
and convincing manner,
You see he's in the habit Of sud
denly and Unexpectedly dropping the
ladies he had loved You know that
yourself
And very probably he's come TO the
conclusion that the most graceful way
IN which ~ perform this ceremony IL
by limiting that the lady herself Is 10
blame
Any girl would forgive him more
readily for giving her the air If she
were made ~ understand that her
cOldness drove him away.
Dave probably remains on the
friendiiest terms with all the ladies he
had loved aud rejected simply because
" this liue Of his
Nov you have been let down and
he Is Letting you down as easily as pos
slbf lie is trying 10 convince you
that something you did turned him
against you. He's even inferring that
his love for you is as strong es ever
Don't you believe II.
And don't you fall for this patter
~ his The one way IN which 10 teach
| that young man lesson Is to call his
bluff
The next time he draws you aside
~ tell you how he misses you aud longs
| for you just hand him Il crisp line
/ yourself Tell him that he's biutflng
| Tell him that you're tired Of this non
! sense, that you know perfectly well
1 nothing you did drove him away from
/ you. Let him have IT straight and
| there's just chance that you may get
/ even mare favorable results than
/ anticipate
you see there's just a chance that
! be may really have fallen for you
/ and that be Is only making desperate
/ effort ~ escape being tied to just one
! girl
II this should be- the ease your breezy
! turn down Won't hurt him any
/ II he really loves you he'il md some
way 10 get back Into your good RraCes
/ And II he's just working time
! NoTu line yoU Won't have done your
| self any harm IN showing him that
; you're wise ~ his pefidy
