THE POLITE WORLD
tt was on tho lawn of one of our hand
me Los' Angeles homes that they were
Bted, soma putting the finishing
uohes to the dainty accessories of tbsir
miner gowns, others were doing fancy
ark, all of them chatting, and all debut
ttes and as pretty and fresh looking a
oup of girls as one would care to see.
eery topic of conversation had been dis
issed and v lull in (be constant bum of
dees was taken advantage of by an in
dent pretty girl in tbo hammock, who
sctrifled her companions with renewed
tcrest In Ihe self assured remark of "I
jnder how he will propose?" ''Bel
ho?" they all exclaimed In one breath.
Why hcl some one, any one," for of
urso we will all have proposals this
immer. It's all well enough to talk
>out a young man's fancy turning to
.oughts of love in the springtime, but it's
0 shady nook, the secluded corner of
>c hotel veranda after a dreamy waltz,
c moonlight drive or row at some Burn
er resort that clinches thu thought
id consummates it Into a proposal.
"Now I know all about proposals, have
Kin making inquiries and I was told by
y matried sister and sho knows, that
a man commences by calling you his
irling, says he worships you, adores
mi, that ho cannot begin lo tell you new
uch he loves you, tbut you ure more
1 bim than anything in the world, he
sver lived till lie met you und ends by
King you if you will only bo liis ho
ill be your devoted slave forever. Now
iris you say no to him nnd ho threatens
> blow .lis brains out, don't bo alarmed
i the least, for that kind of a proposal
cans that he is saying to himself that
iv are! rather a nice girl, that ha bus
ad his fling, that lie had better marry
hi and settle down, that ho has Wl
jubt but what you and he will get alone
ell enough togother, that is if yon ar
ot too particular about clubs, nights o
id don t ever want your own way."
Thero was a shade of disappointment
id unbelief oxpessed In every face for
io proposal belief savored of undying
ye, and suicidal intent, if met with op
ositlon, was dear to their innocent little
carts nnd each one resolved that if such
ill to her lot she would Bay "yes" if for
o other reason than to say no later and
unish such hypocrisy.
