The Iowa plain dealer. [volume] (New Oregon, Howard County, Iowa) 1867-1895, 1883-12-13

Beatrix, in q long article i'll the
Michigan Farmer, tells sad story Of
desertion aud woe brought to young
girl who married man who was almost
unknown to her at the time the union
took place, and closes the article with
this piece of wholesome advice to girls
The young farmers may not he such
dashing gallants, nor be Us much at ease
in company, but they don't owe the
tailor for the suits they wear, nor make
the grand spread on borrowed capi-
tai. The young man you have known
from childhood, whose character You
have had an opportunity of knowing,
whose possessions, though modest, are
honestly his, is the safest husband. 1t
is dangerous thing to marry man
who comes as the notsam and jetsam Of
life, tossed here and there by circum-
stances, who is here to-day and may be
gone tomorrow. Teach this " floating
population that pleasing address
is not passport to your
favor, but If YOU must marry a
wandering Adonis, make him produce
his credentials, lest the story told in my
first paragraph comes to be told of you.

Our Kentucky belle is handsome and,
attired in a modest white gown, pre-
sents no meretricious attractions. She
is accompanied by companion, whom
she is heard to address by the title Of
mother and who is only slightly older
and slightly less attractive than herself,
but who is more conspicuous in the
general brilliant makeup of her face
and personal parapheraalia. She hands
her money to a mongrel type Of mascu-
line nature, the offspring of combined
dude and jockey, who is soon in the

in the fast flyers of the turf she has

where speculation is equally intoxicat'

noted beau to perceive her languishing
dark eyes resting interestedly
upon him. Her gaze has
been purposely fastened upon him,
until he, by well-known physical
and psychological law, turns as nat
