Many people. who consider themselves sensible and prodeat 1730 have no idea what falling in love means. They think that a man before he marries should epend ten or twenty years "looking about him." They cannot understand love's young drenta which asks "What can I do to make happy this sweet soul I love?" but only the open-ered selfishness which asks "What woman will make life run most simonthly for me; with whom cau I seitle down most comfortably?" A man who is a man does not argue with himself on those matters. He does not ask himself How much will this girl's father stump up?"

PLECOCIOUSNESS IN LOVE-MAKING. Precociousness in love.making is a great mistake. It prevents the enjoyment of youth ful years, which should be free from anxiety, and leads to entanglements and hasty attach ments which cause much distress.. Perhaps the best advice one could give a young man in this matter would be to say "Wait until you can't wait any longer." Wait, that is, until she come with smiles so sweet and manners so gracious that you cannot resist her, and then marry and you may be happy ever afterwards.

The poor have not many advantages.over the rich, but they are generally supposed to get nore pleasure out of love's young Certainly money does as a rule seek money, but not always. There is love in a castle as will as love in a cuctage. I am thinking now of a rich girl who would marry an officer who had surely anything beside his pay. Her father would not hear of it until the yonn lady took to bed and retched so loudly that he had to hear. What could ha do, especially as his site accompanied her daughter with loud weeping, but forgive the impacuriosity of the officer and give to him his daughter.
