That flatters a man—having him think you like him and are too modest to show it!” “Just as I had arranged to have Al- fred take his summer vacation at the same time we did and be our guest at the cottage we were going to rent, in comes that Georgie MacPrang with a solitaire as big as a paving stone, all smiles and applied® blushes’ and throws herself on Lizzie's neck and says she must tell her first, because it was through her that she and Al- fred found each other. “Isn’t that enough to make a wom- an give up in despair, Mrs Garver?
