Tho engaged girl has an idea that she has accomplished her life work.
She looks down with undisguised pity upon her heart-free friendo and companions. She bees something to laugh at Jsf%. the feeblest jokes about old maids and their future miseries.
She begins to tell her mother how a hojso should b© run.
And starts a collection of handkerchiefs and doylies.
Thin" s all her old admirers are dying of broken hearts.
Bi-comcs absent-minded, and leaves he* left hand ungloved. Is, on the whole, the sweetest- personification of egotism imaginable.
