My dear girl, something will be done
and it will be overwhelming and crush
ing when it is done, if you permit your
selves to indulge in a mushroom love
like this.
The "something’’ that will be done is
what happens when a road (‘rusher rolls

I do not use that word "silly" t*»

description of you. and one you should
recognize, and change, before it is too
late.
k You are silly to give this man a sec-
ond thought and silly to a dangerous
degree in writing to him and asking

You have confused the hero who gets

You have emptied out your ponr lit-

ance with him resulted in it getting
bruised he would care no more than if
it were a football.
Ho must not be too greatly con
demned for this. It is the class of wom
en to which I beg that you will not
belong that makes him what he is».
