Girls who want Husband;

Glr1S VINO want HUSBANDS.
There is a great deal Of truth in what
Nellie Gray says to girls who are anxious
to marry Some may object to the man
ner of telling it, but the facts, notwithstand-
ing; and those manageable maidens, who
make fools of themselves; and 60 into a fit
of the hips every time they see a hat we
Commend them.-Ed.
Girls. you want to get married. don't yon!
All, what a natural thing it is for young la
dies who have such a hankering for the
sternerscx. Well, if you want to get mar.
ried don't for concience sake act like fools
about it. Don't go into a fit Of the hips ev-
cry time you see a hat and a pair OF whis.
kers. Don't get the idea int your heads
that you must put yourself in the way OF
every young nan in the neighborhood in
order to attract notice, for if you don't run
after the men they will run after you.-
Marx that.
A husband hunter is the most detestabIe
of all young ladies. Size is full Of starch
and Fuckers; she puts on many false airs,
and she is so nice? shat size appears ridicu.
lous in the eyes Of every decent person.
She may be generally be found at meeting,
coming in Of course, about the last one, al.
ways al social parties, aud invariably takes
} Il front seat at concerts. She tries 10 be the
belle OF the place, II think she is. Poor girl!
You are fitting yourself for an oil! maid,
! Just as sure as the Sabbath comes On San
S day. Men will firt with You, and latter
YOU simply because they love to do it, but
they have no more idea Of making you a
i wife than they have of committing suicide
: Ii l was ayoung man, would have no more
u 20 do with such fancy than | would
7 with a rattlesnake.
Now girls. let Nelly give you a piece Of
her advice, and she knows from experience
if you practice it, you will gain the rrputa
Q ton Of being worthy gals and stand a fair
{ chance of getting respectable husbands. L.
is all well enough thai you learn to finger
d the piano, work embroidery, study gram
s mar, etc, but don't neglect letting grand
d ma or your dear mother teach you how tc
: make bread and get q meal of vituals good
q enough for a king. Nopart of the house
keepers duties should be neglected, if you
DO marry a wealthy husband you will neet
: to know how to do such work, and if you dt
III it will be no disadvantage to you to know
how to oversee a servant girl, and instruc
her how to DO these things as you woult
have them done. In the next place, don
o. pretend to be what you are not. Afecta
s ton is the most despicabls Of accomplish
r ments, andwill only cause sensible peopl
rs to laugh at you. No one but a fool will b.
} caught by afIectation- it has a Transparent
e' skin, easily to be seen through.
Dress plain, but neatly. Remember tina
. nothing gives a girl SO modest, becoming
and lovely appearance as IL neat and plan
s. dress. All the fummery and tinsel of worl
ID Of the dress maker and milliner are unneces
III sary.
If y, are really handsome, they do no
add toyour beauty one particle; if you ar
homulv they only make you look worse
rs Gentlemen don't court your faces or you
iewelry. but " ur own dear selves.
Finger rings and folderols may do to lool
' at. but they add nothing to the value of
wife all young men know that. lfyo
know how to talk do it naturally, and d
not be SO disfressinglF polite as to spoil a
: YOU say. Ii your hair is straight, don't pu
= !, on the curling tongs to make people beliey.
!. you have got negro blood in your veins.
!, your neck is very black. welr a lace collar
but dent be so foolish as to daub on pain
thinking that people are so blind as not t
see il; and if your cheeks are not rosy, don
apply pink saucers, for the deception wi
be detected and become the gossip Of th
neighborhood.
Finally, girls, listen to the council of you
!, mothers and ask their advice in every thin!
Think less of fashion than you do Of kitche
LESS Of romance than you do of the real
lies 81 life and instead OF trying to cate
husbands, strive to make yourselves wo
thy Of being caught by them.
