T0 LR Spectfon. are very hard TO
N000f Mind nowadays. They are
"a Railways in demand, always
WI {ol Fhave been. and always will be
iJ& wv as long as society exists in its
/W w present shape. There are a
~ greatmany menin this wicked
world of divorces and opponents, but there
are few in number who are fitted to adorn
home or claim wife. Some of them are
good hands at fire; some are good judges
of horsefesh, and others are devout MEM
bers of churches, but only
One in q thousand
Is adapted to shine in the matrimonial
state.
Men are great deal like mules.
If mule does not kick he is sure to have
some ether trick that is more devlish.
So with desirable young man. If he
drinks not, or gamOOlS not on the cloth OF
the field of green where ch Ups most do con-
gregate, be is sure to be addicted
to the habit of insulting a square
smoke by triding with q cigarette with one
end lighted If gifted by nature with q
good disposition, he is almost sure
to possess an antipaSly to mothers
in-law that removes him from the list of
men qualified to make woman and her
family perfectly cOntented. He may be
face and figure and arrayed in fine
ralment, but
Beware!
Young woman,
He is q deceiyer. Take him not.
For he is vain of his appearance and will
want wife to compliment him on his
looks. He will not appear to good advan-
tage during the housekeeping times, when
the nobility of a mans nature is tested to
its utmost extent. He is on dress parade
and will not come down to the practical
stovepipe-ftting part OF life. He will not
get up and light the fire if he can get out
of it. Neither will ne walk the floor at
night and administer paregOric, as good
men and husbands have done in the past,
and as true and time-tested men will do in
the future as long as nights come and pare
goric is sold at drug stores. That kind of
a man-One with regular features, who
often consultS the mirror and involuntarily
thanks gOud fortune for his fine looks, will
do for a clerk in dry goods store or an
old bachelor, but he is not tit to travel in
double harness.
An ugly man,
Whose face and figure are plain;
In fact, one whose appearance would in
dictate that nature owed him an apology for
making him so hOmely, does not neceSsar-
lily make good husband. He may prove
good man at the head of the house, but
his looks do not always indicate that he is a
person of long-Sutfering and faithful do
nestle slave. Anugly man is sometimes
started in life without any taste and he
dresses unbecOmingly and thereby intensi-
lies his bad looks. He is no judge of a
proper person to share his hand, his fortune
Or his poverty as the case may be, and if
allowed to make a selection of a life part
ner would doubtless take unto himself a
woman in no way adapted to make him
happy and for whom he has not the slight
est affinity. The girl, being consulted.
cOrrects his judgment in those affairs.
OF course,
Many ugly men
Are in every way qualified to make good
husbands from the start. They generally
lie early in the game and leave pretty and
attractive widows. AS rule each ugly
man leaves but one widow. Ugly men
Inow of their uglness and try to even up
he scale by improving themselves. They
are good takers, kind-hearted and are fond
Of children. These characteristics, deSir-
lble in their way, require some bad trick
Or feature; hence the manly possessoI
thereof is not pleasing to the eye.
4 good dancer,
An accomplished leader of the german.
Does not always turn out to be an A No.
l husband, as such accomplishments do not
render man better able to make the best
Of wash-day dinner or to stand with phil
Osophy the inconvenience of taking care of
O whole household of his wife's relatives.
His dancing steps are not the right kind for
the nursery and would be out Of place at a
christening party. He is apt to be too fond
of society to settle down in some quiet
little home with nice little woman and
devote himself to her as long as they travel
around the busy, revolving globe.
Home
Has no joys for him.
lie prefers many hospitable mansions.
Rather would he be beau all his life, to
enjoy with others the social pleasures of a
roof. than to take unto himself home and
share its many comforts and joys and its
little trials. He is fit only to appear in the
reflected sunlight Of home and knows not
the beauties of its shades and shadows. A
selfish man is he who thinks too much OF
his GNn comfort and too little of the pleas
ureS of others. He seats himself in his
room, with his pipe, and smokes and
dreams. His dreams end at last He is
carried to the grave. No one mourns fol
him. He is hardly missed. A bachelors
place is soon filled.
A singer
Is not bread winner.
lie is too visionary.
In church concert or amateur operate
entertainment he shines out like a lantern
on dark night. But the every day matri-
mOnial existence does not contain any such
performances. The household concerts
are OF an entirely different character. The
male singer-the grown up singer-vocal-
ICES for an audience of one Oh such occa-
sions and that auditor is not very discrim-
mating. These domestic vocal gymnaStic
exercises are long drawn out, and the man
who can make the most noise and can keen
it up for hours at a time is usually the most
in demand. Good singers do not like to
misuse their voices in this way and hence
they are not stars in the domestic firma-
ment.
Hard to please
Are the male vOcalists,
And willing are they to see woman
make perfect slave of herself provided
these vocal lords of creation can escape
hard work and thus preserve their voices.
Of course all men who are blessed with
fine voices are not so constituted. The ex-
ceptions are those whose singing is OF
secondary consideration with them. They
hova come other mode of making an hon.
