Bachelors Perils.

Manageable men are beginning to be
wary. Even if man is allowed to visit in
the guise of friend, the chances are that he
will eventually drift into matrimony. Sup
posing there to be several daughters in the
family where he visits, he will look upon the
number as his greatest safe guard. He may
imagine that he will never attempt to single
out one, from the difficulty Of discovering
which one to single out. The girls would,
Of course, lead him to believe that they looked
upon him as brother, and that papa and
mamma looked upon him in the light of son
not son-inl law The lucky bachelor
would thus be lulled to sleep. He would be-
come unguarded in his actions, and would al
low his feelings to lead him whittier they listed
him and, as natural sequence, he would
eventually single some one rose from these
flowers womankind as being little fairer,
having more charming manner, or for in
some way or other coming nearer than her
sisters to his idea of all that is excellent in
woman If bachelor of middle age he
would most probably select the youngest Of
the family, cheating himself Tito the belief
that he did SO simply out Of a sort of father
ly regard for her. He would christen her
the ''baby" Of the house, though she might
be fine grown maiden Of eighteen summers,
and having all the airs and ideas of a woman
three times her age. He would more fire.
quently address his conversation to her than
to her sisters, but at the same time he would
rarely talk sweet speeches talking more like
a schoolmaster than an admirer, that she
might be instructed somewhat He would
prefer walking with her, that he might point
out the beauties of nature, or illustrate the
harmonies of creation; and, in effect, he
would not fail to show his preference. in spite
Of his awkward apologies and grotesques eff.
forts at concealment.
The sisters would be careful not to check
Legitimate sport. They would maneuvre SC
that the lovers, as they would jokipgly call
them, always sat next to each other at the
family board, that they we're partners in all
amusements, and that in party drives OF
walks they should either be left behind, or be
left in front. Of course, this style Of pro-
ceeding would not fail to be observed. The
lady friend of the family would feel in duty
bound to tell her husband, and, the husband
would have no other alternative than to in
form his friend that, owing to the talk Of the
neighbors, he must either cease his visits al
together, or continue them on different foot

tleman. he must, as speedily as possible
