He might lose the only girl he o uld ever really love did he refrain from *the ques- tion,” and she might lose, by his silence, the only man who could make her a good husband. But there are many men who consider it a point of honor not to “formally bind" girl until their own position s secured. This may sound all right, work out very satisfactorily, at any rate. To the man thg proper “formality” con- sists in “speaking to papa,” and present- ing an engagement ring. After that he Is looked upon as one of the family, and has exclusive right to the soclety of his be- loved. If the two are mutually happy in each other this arrangement may prove quite successful. The man has an in- centive to push ahead, and the girl has the benefit of his companionship, his care, and the affection which exists only b tween lovers, with the added advantage, too, of acquiring & true knowledge of her lover's character that will come fn use- fully by and by.
