The' man1 was quite right.
Only in America Is that type of woman
found the, woman who claims to be re
spectable, and who In reality Is not
vicious; yet who, by her conduot In publlo
places, and toward, strangers, compels
an observer to. Question her morality and
respectability:

Know what, my dear? That you are
Infatuated, or that yoU have money? For
an Impula'lve young woman of Zl, one
will be as difficult as the other, for
money has a way of making Its presenoe

commendable, where- the girl hus money,

Love
I am 1$.'" writes Pat Carey, "and am
deepfy In love with a girl named Agnes,
who Is Just eighteen. My friend Tom Is
also In love with her, atxr keeps company
with her. We have both told her we love
her, but he went to a dance, met her
there, and dished me out. Do you think
It would be mean if I tried to win her
away from htm, as I cannot live without
her?"
The Idea of a man named Pat stop
ping to ask such a questlonl He Is not a
true Irishman, or he would not stop td
ask If he should try to win the girl he
loves from come other man, even though
the' other man' "dished him oUtl"
It has always seemed- to me that the
lover who doubts it he has a right to
win his sweetheart doesn't love her very
much. Instead of a rival spurring him to
action, he drops beside the road and
wonders If he has a right to stay In the
race!
' Really, If the. girl has any spirit In her

longest for her, even though she may

Ono who hesitates foolishly writes: "I

young man who gets mqre wants to keep

want to dQ the right thing."
It la never the "right thing" for a girl
of only 17, too young to knoW her own
mind and heart, to be bound to a promise
to marry a man five years hence. The
chances are that he may not be in a posi
