We mast give all the nice, modest
girls We know credit for not consciously
endeavouing1to catch husbands. If men
fall in love with them and desire to
marry them, and they are the night sort
of men, and the girls can love in return,
we'll and good--they marry, and hope
to be happy ever after, but they will
not run after men, OF think in every
thing they do or say, Can I catch
fish with this bait?"
1t must, however, be confessed that
there are girls who, instead of making
themselves useful and calmly resting in
their maiden dignity, think oaly of get
ting married, and use questionable
means to achieve their purpose. For
getting the proverb, "The more haste
the less speed" this sort Of girl not UNI

talk, manner and dress, in order to
make herself attractive to the opposite
sex. In doing so she makes great
mistake. Fish may nibble at her bait,
but they will not allow themselves to

tention and have half an hour of pop,t-
larity, but she is d type Of the short
siglltedness of some Of her sex. Men
of the baser sort may amuse themselves
with her, but no man worth having
would think of marrying her.
There is liberty that makes us free
and a liberty that makes sssslaves, and
the girls who take liberties with
anodesty Of speech and manner, and
who cross over the boundary into mas.
culineterritory, are not more free, but
more slavish than before And the ap-
probation OF men, which rs the end in
view, is lost by the means taken to gain
it. Whatever men may I've themselves.
