' TO A GIRL ENGAGED Your, | How Can She Be Sure of Man's Love, "How," asks "Engaged," in a let- | ter to the editor who is regarded as 'an authority on many subjects, "can a girl be sure the man she loves means all he » - 'The cold, hard fact about it is that she can't. Neither can he. Solo- mon, who knew a lot, said all men were liars, and human oxperience in | the centuries since hasn't produced many reasons to chamge the verdict. Not necessarily wilful and deliber- ate liars---let's give them that bene- fit. But Jet's also be did. A | man in love is like a man in drink-- he's too intoxicated to be respon sible for all he says. Do you suppose there ever was a man in love, from Adam down, who didn't swear by all the deities that he'd never let the woman take in washing to support him? Yet the wash tub supports almost as many homes as tlie plek and shovel. - Circumstances change. .
