FANNY FERN's IDEA OF ~ BAsnFUL Man.
Why do people decry masculine blush? /
don't know. Immediately love the man who
hlushes. l sure that he is unhackneycd;
that he has not set Of meaningless, cut and
dried compliments Oh hand for every bonnet he
meets; that he has not learned to sniF at the
Bible, or the Sabbath, or pratc tTanscendentaliy
about "attinities," or any other corruption un-
der new tangled name. | know that his love
will be worth pure womanS having; that he
will not be ashamed of liking home, or his baby,
or laughed out Of staying in it in preference to
any other place. | know that when he stops
at hotel, his first business will not be to hold
a conference with the cook to te him how he
likes 0mccttc made | know that in his
conversation he will not pride himself upon the
small foDperieS OF talk, in the way of pronuncia-
ton and newly coined words, to show how well
hc is posted in dictionary matters. know that
he will not be cloSeted two thirds of bis time
with his tailor, or think it fine to be continually
quoting some dead and gone book, only to some
res cti0nists of scarce authors. | know he
will not sit in a grim.stUrchel and statues

to be his mother, is standing YEARLY in front of
him, swayiHg TO and fro with the motion of the
vehicle. In short, know thai he is not pet.
rifaction; that there's human nature in him,
and plenty Of it; that he is not like an animal
under an exhausted receiver, having form only
in whom there is no spring nor elasticity nor
breath OF hfe
a fool, hey? No, sr-not necessarily fool
either. The fool is lie who, not yet at hIc'S me
ridian, has exhausted it and himself; who thinks
every man "green" who has not taken his
diploma in wickedncsS. For whom existence
is as weary as a thrice told tale. Who has
crowded four score years into twenty or less
and has nothing left for it but to sneer at the
healthy, simple, pure fresh joys, which may
never come again 10 his vitiatc;l palate.
