Show TriISt Engaged Girl Should Allow jjjfVy By Much Freedom HELEN OLDFIELD AUAD0X10AL statement though it be, there are some men I and many women who apparently never are happy unless thej I HCl iiidl'iniv 4 It iiwiil tna rt .1 li'lult i3 wiltf-i- l li'AfifiA are nearest and dearest to' them, more or less miserable. WIiol one lias a tendency this way it is more apt to manifest itsel in love affairs than in any other condition pertaining to the conduct of life. We all know people who cannot be content to take anything on trust, who, so to speak, always and forever are digging up the plants in their gardens to sec if they are striking root ; who continually are weighing and measuring their treasures to assure themselves that they have suffered no diminution Jacks who, every time they meet Jill, inquire of her if she loves them as well as she did yesterday; Jills who cry themselves sick because Jack, who perhaps has troubles of his own, troubles wholly unconnected with his affection for her, Bccina less absorbed in her, or less attentive to her chatter than his wont. There are 6onie engaged girls who always worry, testing the spirit thermometer of love with nervous fingers. Every time they go out for a walk with their fiances, their friends and family expect them to return with sad faces, if not actually in tears, fearing lest a change has come over the spirit of love's dream. This is all wrong. People who have not faith in each other, who Jo not believe in each other's assurances of affection without requiring fresh affidavits thereto morning, noon and night, have no business to be engaged. Of course it is pleasant for the woman who is over had and cars in love when such affidavits are spontaneously furnished by her lover, but on her side a little coyness i3 both attractive and becoming. It is not a wise thing for a woman to attempt to monopolize her lover. No man likes it, however much it may testify to his sweetheart's devotion. It is well to give him plenty of rope men drive best with a loose rein only be sure to bring him up with a short pull, now and then, just for the sake of letting him know how firmly he h held. To be faithful unto death, through weal and through woe, to one's vows of love and faithfulness is a superbly magnificent achievement. It, however, is an achievement which, unfortunately, tin? majority ot sweethearts for themselves make impossible. Nor is this of willful intent; the failure rather is due to their thoughtless rashness in entering into contracts which humanly it is impossible to carry out according to tht 4ln-aj- letter. i was my chance to restore peace an' THE BUDGET harmony, Jlst like whut I told Hill I to do. wanted Taylor "When a hous balks there's no use O.
