My hearers-l shall touch upon my
text line by line. In the first place =" |
love the ladies, every one" This
should not only apply TO me, but to
everybody of The masculine gender
To love the ladies is the duty of every
manic say nothing about the pleas
urc and happiness derived thereilom.
Made of more delicate material than
we men, they should be fostered by
our love-protected by our care-and
encouraged by our attention. Being
beautiful by nature, they have rightful
claims upon our admiration and he
that does not admire a pretty woman
ought to be drummed out Of society
into a woods full of wildcats.
My dear trients-now for the Sec
ond line: "Thc laughing, bright bru-
nette." There IS great deal OF mean
ing in this sentence-more, probably,
than most Of you are aware Of. or
course, it looks little DARK to you
so does an evening, but the stars that
shine, illuminate and make brilliant
the whole armament and so do the
bright eyes Of brunette cast lovely
glow over the semisable complexion
that makes q man feel as though he

But let black hair is the kind that
pounces upon my admiration, and
lights upon my love, like a whippoor-

This is a matter very easily appreciu-
ted, but difficult to describe. Most Of
you, my he-ones, have doubtless felt
the curious and inexpIainable sensa-
lions that lovely ladies arc capable of
arousing with a mere glance. There
is something too subtle, too electrical,
TOO magnetic about it, to admit Of
solution. As they say Of electricity,
