She wonders if the soft-talking Romeo thinks she is one of the feeble-minded females who believes everything man says to her, or if he is so short on conversational small talk that he is forced to hand her out the old malarky that is probably what Adam said to Eve when they first met. Well. the way of a man with maid is one of the riddles nobody has ever guessed, and among his fixed beliefs is that no girl ever gets enough flattery, and that the way to make a hit with one is to pile it on with shovel Also that any girl will fall for any kind of lovemaking.

How men get -that WAY, nobody knows. Certainly not from their own experience, for most of them have intelligent mothers and hard-bolled sisters, and they work every day with girls who Are nobody's fools.

He tells Angelina that the moment he saw. her he knew that he WAS looking at his fate and that she was the only woman in the world for him. His heart did Alpflops in his and the angel choir began singing and he knew that life would never, be the same to him again.

And he expects Angelina to actually believe in this sudden attack of heart trouble. Whether. young wolves learn the art of courtship in a school of correspondence, I don't know, but there seems to be a regular formula for the thing. When one of these amateur sheiks meets a girl, he demands to know where she had been hiding herself so that they have never met before, It he takes her out to dinner, by the time they have had the soup he in telling her, with glad light in his yes, that he has searched the world just looking for HER and that he had despaired of her until they met, thank God, before it was too late.
