to me that a ease like this would be an
awful warning that would nut ke every
man take something for the love-letter-writing
habit that would be a sure cure,
and prevent him from having any crav

for pity on the neck of the man who
has to listen to his own passe raves"

up her treasured love letters and tie them
up with a blue ribbon and a failed rose

"I3ul,, Judging from the number of
breach of promise suits where the love

way young women regard their sweet

"Neither do they tie up his letters and
put them away among the aad, sweet
