Don't dc your spooning In public.
Give your little brother taffy, and ge
him to bed before your chap calls.
Recollect that wedding ring on your
finger is worth good many of them in
your mind.
Try to find out by some means whether
your intended knows how to earn decent
living for two.
BE reasonable; don't expect man work
ing for IS week TO furnish you with re-
served seats at the opera every other
night.
Don't be afraid to show the man of your
choice that you love him-provided, of
course, he loves you. Love is a double
sided sort of concern, and both have part
to play.
Don't try to bring too many suitors to
your feet. They have feet as well as you
have, and you may see one pair of feet
walking OFF from YOU some day you would
be very glad to call back.
Keep your temper, if you expect your
other alf-in-Iaw TO keep his. If he doesn't
suit you, give him the ticket leave. If
he does not suit you, don't expect HIM TO
put up with your humors.
Deal carefully with bashful lovers; lead
them gradually to the point (of proposal,
of cOurse), but don't let them suspect what
you are at, or they might faint on your
hands, or 60 crazy on the spot.
1t is said lovers quarrels always end
with kisses. This is partly true; but if
you are not careful those little spats you
indulge in may end in the kisses you covet
beng given to some other girl
If it is possible. try TO suit your sisters,
cousins, aunts, grandfatherS neighbors,
friends and acquaintances when you hap
pen to fall in love. If you can't suit them
all, dou't worry, for the thing has never
been done yet.
If you use powder, don't give yourself
away. For instance, 1t would be well to
spread a handkerchief over tine shoulder OF
his broadcloth before you lean thereon. He
will be too green, depend on il, to suspect
the reason. If his mustache happens to
look little powdery, there are several
ways in which it could be brushed off.
Don't imagine that husband can live
as lover does-On kisses and moonlight.
de Will come home to his meals hungry as
a bear, and any little knowledge of cookery
ou can pick up during cCurtshlp is about
the best provision you con make for futnre
happiness.
Rememher that nature has put every
man under the necessity of having a
mother, and that the latter is not in any
way TO blame il she is regarded as the Bit
ter part of a sugar coated matrimonial
pill. If you feel In duty bound to be her
sworn enemy, postpone this duty till you
know something about her.
Don't seek advice in love-affairs from
an old maid who has been crossed in love,
a bachelor who has been jllted, a woman
who married her husbands pocket-hook,
or a man who happens TO be henpecked.
Don't confide in your girl friends; 10 keep
a secret in q love-affair would kill them.
Don't consult your minister; hell have the
marriage-fee in view. If you go to YOU
family physician, he will say your liver is
affected in place of your heart. If you
must get instructions from somebody, why
not ask your mother how she used TO man
age things with your fatherl True love
didn't run any smoother in old times than
it does TO day, and, since she knows how
1t is lerself, we can't think, just now, OF
any better way TO advise You.
