but asks advice tor for the girls all he asks Is to be allowed the right which naturally seems to have boon bolin accorded him im that of making overtures to the girl he ha admires and the more difficult it Is to gain her attention the more he admires and pursues my advice to the girls young man would be to let you be at peace and turn their attention to some boy who la Is a greater admirer of their method of gain gaining inca a boya attention than you are or better still cultivate a disposition deposition to let the boys become interested enough in them to ann nant to be attentive to

you to dance in their home this is perhaps easier and less embarrassing than learning in public then go forth to the dance and choose a sweet pleasant agreeable little girl wh dances well if you do
