LOYE.MAKING AS AN ART.
How the Kentucky Relies Talk
sH Upon This subject.
Tcor. Louisville Commercial.


According TO the protested belief of q
noted belle ofthis city who is now a round
and ROSY matron with children at hel
! knee, the poets dreadful contingent need
never bring misery to a lovers heart. In
other words, the man who loves in the
right way canIalways s'gether."
"a score of men made love to me, -
said the excellent lady above referred to,
and any one of them might have had me
if he had studied the art of love-making
with the same care he would give any
time to'a game of chess. ''i .'''
=" 81 hold that love-makinga is an art,
There is no. such thing as love at first
sight. We may admire each other in the
beginning, but Immediate affection is out
of the question. First impressions, no
matter how favorable, must be strength
ened by artful cultivation. Then love
comes, and if the man who sues makes
no mistakes, he is sure to win, no matter
what his condition may be. OF course he
must talk well, dress respectfully, and,
above all, wear clean linen and keep his
face free from dirt. Ii he does all this
and sues judiciously, no arrow OF .misfort-
une can keep the victor's wreath from
off his crown L might add that
one of the requisites in personal
appearance is clean teeth. A man
may have a nose like a pumpkin, or
mouth like a mammoth cave, or eyes
like jaw bird, a hand like a ham, or d
foot as big as a canoe, and he can win,
but if his teeth are not what a gentle
mans teeth ought to be he will rue the
day he gave his heart to a well-bred
woman. He may be tall or short, stout
or lean, with a voice like a fog-horn and
a carriage as ungraceful as the amble of
camel, and he may yet win any woman
in the world if he studies her with care
and keeps his teeth clean.
% ''More women are won by judicious
fiattery than by any other means, for
every woman is more or less vain, and
she is naturally fond of the man who
finds her weakness and handles it with
skill. Let woman once imagine that
she has pretty eyes, and if man will
tell he sor constantly and artfully, she is
certain to have weakness for him, which
may easily be tanned into a flame of
love, and ardent love at that. This is
merely an example.
% "All women profess to hate men who
are jealous, but in this they belle them
selves eXtrayagantly. No woman eyer
loved man violently whom she was I'M
able to infect with a sting of the green
eyed monster. 1t is true that some
women are fond of complacent, easy
going and impassionate men, but as a
rule such fellows can never inspire the
genuine emotion. 1t is your hot-headed,
passionate and impulsive man who can
drive a woman to destruction. All women
are more or less sentimental, and SO are
all good men for that matter. Sentiment
has nothing to do with complacency.
Therefore you can understand the drift
of my argument. gan
ga man must be more or less hot
headed; he must be more or less jealous
and more or less passionate to inspire a
woman with the love that burns. The
man who wouldn't kiss a woman when
she tells him with her eyes that her lips
are yearning is an idiot. don't mean
by this that kissing is at all necessary, or
even proper, but it is certainly a part and
parcel OF the art OF loye-making. 80
81 heard a nisAttV, GIRL from GsleYelesIal
say once that she had been devotedly
sought by young Mr. L. for four years.
She was fond of him and. admired him
for many excellent qualities, but she
finally let him go, because, as she
put it, he never had the cour-
age to once squeeze her hand. To. my
there never was a purer or
better girl than that one, but she was too
full OF mercury to ever wed a man, who
lacked the spirit to at least squeeze her
hand in lovable way. Real women, /
protest, care nothing for milk-and-watef
men, nor do they always worship heroes,
but, as l have said if any intelligent man
with clean linen and clean teeth, will
make judicious combination OF fiattery
and ardent devotion, he can win any
woman in the world who doesn't hate
him for a cause in the beginning of the
affair - 81. ..,.y .-r. -.t H.rl AfiH .sg :
