from matrimony, and leaving undone
many things which he ought to have
done. He has no excuse to offer for
remaining a bachelor and shirking
matrimony all these years, and even
If he had one he doesn't feel like
telling her. Instead he feels a strong
inclination to run away and he usu
ally does.
The bachelor feels thoroughly at
home and ready to talk and laugh
••KK «Ko m«tron. but Jse feels even
giddy with the young girl. She nev-
er turns the eye of wonder or re-
proach upon him, neither does she
condemn his character or feel the
least bit annoyed at him for never
having married.
She blushingly
looks upon him as a hero, or at least
fancies that she doe«. Never for one
moment does he feel like telling her
why he never married, nor does he
feel the slightest bit like running
away from her.
The old maid usually says or does
something which makes him retire
into his shell, but the matron and
young girls are so frank and free and
full ot life that the bachelor comes
forth and acts like himself. It any
one can coax him to the altar it is
usually tills jolly matron or innocent
fun loving girl.
