With Dobbin as the motive power and with a as the vehicle, there was a safety and a buggy romance in love making which are lacking with gasoline and a d auto. Matilda should realize this. Dobbin was trustworthy. He was content to jog along comfortably, keeping to fhe , road, unmindful of the fact that the reins were wrapped about the whipstock and that his masters arms were in better .business than directing him in his slow course or urging greater spqed. But the auto is different. It is possessed of no instinct to help it avoid collisions, to keep its place in the road or even to find its way home. It is altogether unreliable and cannot even for a moment be left to conduct its own course.

Ha-ha-s only two hands and both of to these should be devoted guiding and caring for Dobbins mechanical successor. Her spinal column and the remnant of corset which fashion has left her should be Matildas only support while riding on the front seat, unless she would court disaster while courting her companion. But even when Matilda makes no demands on her escorts hands and arms, she should realize that, - being a man, he is more or less disconcerted when she insists on about his nock: Trrrr4 fuvlinu lnjr hmrl- - OTr his putting her arms Of course, its very sweet of herthus to show her manly bosom. : remember that in her lovers eyes she will should love, but she cut no very attractive figure when before a coroners jury, either as principal or witness.
