her young anee ance to the wall and indulged in another delicious bout of weeping doctor westover Wo stover sat patiently at her bedside until the storm was over then he tried to reason with her im older than you are my child anzi and my experience hns has proved that most young people run onto the shoals lu in their first love affair and ordinarily they get over it with surprising rapidity As

business course ive tall talked ced it all over with your yon parents and they applone biot most heartily corinne tried to petrify the doctor with one horrible look but it if he be was wal in the least affected lio lie showed no signs and a minute later gave his pl dent alc tlc nt a hearty handshake and left the room whistling indeed so unimpressed did he appear that the girl began to fear that her features hill had failed to register the unspeakable di disgust she had felt for anyone so hopelessly flippant and heartless she mils be developing facial paralysis or something thin she decided all ready said the doctor to corinne a few days later were going down to start start that business course tills this morning I 1 have a young that graduates in medicine this june hell be
