There is an un-ler-to-sl rule that the young man shall make some reci-gnition of a courtesy at the uinds of a young lady, but if he di.4- this In- certainly does n- more.

There are any nuinlier of cliariiiing young women who.'.onot reipiire that a young man shall go to the expense of a carriage. They are w iiHr.g to g. by street-car or better yet. to walk, to the'tfieatre. Any young man with the right sort of f.-eling is willing to go only lia'f as -iflt-n and to take a young lady with him.
