ithe book of plays and other litera tore tare and hope you will find just what you are looking for dear miss brooks I 1 have a few questions I 1 would like you to aniber answer for mei have company with my fiance for a year and he never has given me a box of candy of any kind and never neve r seems to want to treat me very much do you think that is because he care enough for me he gave me line a real nice xmas present 2 why is it that boys we girls are arc acquainted with in our home town will not dance with us we always speak to them and have never given them any reason we know of to dislike us thy they always dance with the more popular ones and the strange hoping for an early reply BROWN EYES your fiance fiana is unusual in that he lias bas not given you even one box of candy but it does riot not necessarily mean that he does not care enough for you he may just be one of the kind who does not approve of spending money that way or he may not know that you are fond of candy I 1 imagine he must just be a thrifty economical young man who does not believe in spending money for small things which he does docs not consider of any value it would sm seem that it is up to you to use a popular phrase to let him know you care for those things or else think as he does about it and not let it bother you I 1 am sure I 1 cannot tell you why the boys of your town do not dance with you do you dance well if not improve in that respect all you can and I 1 am sure they will danco dance with you as everyone likes to dance with a good dancer and of course you have your home boys neglect

to judge whether hether a your case was an exception or not in most cases a man of forty who married a girl of nineteen if you are considering marriage would be dictatorial tat orial and expect her to
