henLucRJ, the ulAn na6 Deen Ihar
who writ" these lines:
It's sweet to love; but oh, how bitter
To have a gal and then not git her.
AS the poet touchingly insinuates,
says The Louisville Commercial, the
sensation OF being thoroughly in love
is the sweetest emotion that moves
the human breast. Love rules the
nation. Love is the JOY of all crea-
ton. But love unrequited has th9
sting Of million deaths. Love leads
to happiness, TO misery, to crime, aud
to suicide. Nearl y every weak minded
man who loves and dont git kerr
becomes self-aSsassln. Men of
stronger mind suffer for while, and
then, as rule, look for another girl
and make the best of experience.
But the glamour is gone AID senti
ment is no longer the maia spring.
Method takes It's place, for he who
loves the second time loves with u
system. 1t is the first love that moves
TO ecstatic bliss or reduces life 10 a
stainless blank, as the girl always
puts it when she writes by her window
at midnIg.t with the moonbeams
III w ICuliliu ilGE vi It biSS-
full love stfclt in the June time long
ago, but according to the professed
belief of a noted belle of this city,
who is now round and rosy matron
with children at her knee, the poets
dreadful contingent need never bring
misery to lovers heart. In ether
words. the man who loves in the right
way can always git her.
"a score of men made love TO me-"
said the excellent lady above referred
to, land anyone of theni mi. Int have
had me if he had studied the art OF
love making with the same care be
would give any time to a game of
chess.
81 hold that love making is an art
There is no sucn thing as love at first
sight. We may admire each other in
the beginning, but immediate affec
ton is out OF the question. First inn
pressions, no matter how favorable,
must be strengthened by artful cult,
Walton. Then love comes, aud if the
man who sues makes 10 mistake, be
is sure to win, no matter wha. his
condition may be. o. course, ne must
talk well, dress respectfully, and above
all, wear clean linen and keep his
face free from dirt. It he DOS all
this and sues judiciously no arrow of
misfortune can keep the victor's
wreath from off his crown. 1 might
add that one of the requisites in per-
sonal appearance is clean teeth. A
man may have a nose like pumpkin,
or mouth like mammoth cave, or
eyes like jay bird, hand Ike ham,
or foot as big as canoe, and he can
win, but if his teeth are not what
gentleman's teeth ought to be he will
rue the day he gave his heart TO a
well breu woman. He may be tall or
short, stout or lean, with a voice like
fog horn and carriage as upgrace-
full as the amble of a 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
hatterp than by any other means, for
every woman is mere or less vain, and |
she is naturally fond of the man who |
finds her weakness and handles it |
with skill. Leta woman once imagine |
that she has pretty eyes, and if a man
will tell her SO constantly and artful- |
ly, she is certain to have weakness |
for him. which may be easily famed
into flame of love, and ardent love |
at that Shis is merely an example. |
The Mysteries of the Lobby.
Ben: Perley Poore.
The mysteries of the lobby were
partly unveiled in February. 1875,
when Col. Irwin was forced, under
pain of imprisonment, to disclose the
names of those among whom 1920, 600
was divided. Col. Forney's WASH
neton correspondent. Mcfarland, re-
eeived $25, GOO, which he RENTED TO
he colonel. Elk Mayor Barrett re-
;eived several thousand dollars, and
w. B. Shaw, the ''Nestor" of ccrres-
oondents, admitted that he had receiv-
ID SIS, 900. His services consisted, &C
,ording 10 his own sworn evidence, in
asking members how
he thing looked" He swore he rem
Tered no other service; He bribed no
BODY; he tried t. influence nobody.
Once IN while when he met leading
statesman he would ask him casually
now it looked, and would go home
md charge the company say 5000
or it. He was in favor of ali sub
'ldles, he says, because they gave him
chance TO speculate in stocks. But
I they all were as fruitful to hin as
his one he could well afford not 10
peculate, but pass peaceful old age
n putting remuReratIye conundTums
o leading statesmen.
