A young man eigning himself ™“Bteady” wants to know. “I am not @ sensitive plant, nor a weakling,” he writes, “but the girl 1 keep company with often threatens to leave moe; whether she teases me @F not I don’t know, but I simply can- mot bear the thought of losing her and I seem unable to hold back tears, ‘Would you let me have your opinion @f @ man like me, and what is the best thing to do?” Some of our kindest, most sincere Men are quite as mucn inelined to have misty eyes as women, It is no Back of masculine strength on your part but rather implies that you have @ devoted, sensitive nature. How- ever, I would not advise you to give én to that side of your nature too fre- ntly, Evidently the young lady a speak of does not appreciate your deep feeling and she may, in true girlish fashion, like to see thoge tears fm order to be assured of your love. Take the initiative yourself, and when ghe threatens to leave you just fail to call for a few evenings. This will put her to a test, and if she really cares for you she will change her at- titude at once. Sometimes lovers are too sure of each other's love, and either the man or the girl develops Just such an attitude as you have ~.described.

Do you think it would be safe for us to elope?” If the man were twenty-five and you twenty-four I would say yes, but since your lover is not old enough to vote I advise you to wait a couple of years. A boy of nineteen is always subject more or less to his parents’ wishes. When he finds the respons bilities of marriage piled high on h head he may long for home and mother and any girl but you, and re- member that the parents may have the marriage annulled if the boy has not reached his twenty-first year, If this boy really loves you, he will wait for you until he reaches his majority.
