GOSSIP ABOUT MEN AND WOMEN.

Forth In Plain Language.
II isn't much wonder that young
women paint, powder and bleach,
when il is known that the average
young man is o readily attracted
by these tricks than by true womanly
graces. This is probably not true of
the wife hunter, but il certainly is OF
the young man who is merely desir
u of being entertained.
The average young woman is fond
Of being told that she is good looking,
that she is of good form and carriage.
She takes it as a higher compliment
TO be considered attractive than 10 be
regarded as sensible, intelligent and
practical.
Men like to preach down extrava-
gance and style and dress; but she
who bangs her bair, hides a bloth or
scar under a pieos of court plaster,
who Uses pretty gloves and stockings,
trim slippers, perfumes, balms, cold
creams, finger curls and faacy notions
L. increase her charms is the woman
who is admired by them all. Com.
men sense and ug.iness may be moral.
" wholesome, but they're not allur
ing, and art is liable TO trample ovei
nature unadorned.
Young woman may deny il, yet the
fact remains hat their chief object II
life is TO WIN husbands. il is then
nature, and il is right. If you ask u
married lady bow she captured Der
husband she will tell you size does not
know and probably all that he can
tell is that ii was her winning ways.
1t is of little consequence how they
were brought together so that the at
traction was mutual. Ii the real man
and the real woman were the attrac
tive features il were well; but if beau.
ty, dress or fortune attracted them
their happiness is far from being as
sured.
A mans heart is ensnared by a pref
~ hand, nice teeth, a round, low
voice, frank eyes, beautiful hair; by
the way a girl walks, talks, plays,
rides; by her gifts, her smiles, her
amiability, good taste, generosity, or
the manner in which she greets, fas-
cinates or abuses him. She may not
know how she won him, but ii she
doesn't know how 10 keep him the
best thing for her TO do is to find out
There are many things we know by
intuition; the rest have 10 be learned
by experience. Conscious of her abili
ties and liabilities as a wife, "a wise
woman will learn 10 keep husband
Just as she learns how to keep house.
Men are susceptible, even more so
than women.
There is this difference The aver
age man inquiries whether he is in
condition TO marry. The average We.
man doesn't. If the man SleaSes her
fancy she is satisfied. She may not
be able to play any part in the new
drama except TO hang upon his neck
and coax 10 he petted.
Such a wife is a burden 10 any man.
She doesn't understand him, neither
does she know the chief constituents
of a home.
The wife who takes an interest in
home, in her husbands affairs, and
inds pleasure IN contributing TO his
comfort and happiness is a treasure OF
greater value than a gold mine.
The wife who has no higher am
bition than to be kept alive is a poor
investment.
The average "a has very little use
for a smart woman. She is full Of
schemes, and isambitioust 10 shine. Her
disposition is anything but domestic,
and she is not the most genial com.
panion for a man whose mind istaken
up with business affairs. He doesn't
care how intelligent she is, but he
hasn't much use for her if she is
smart.
Men like 10 be looked up at, depend
ed on, quoted and referred TO. An
ugly temper is a trial that few women
are able TO endure. The only cure is
silence. You can't kiss a furious man;
it only makes him worse. The thing
TO do is TO keep still, let him cool, and
let the matter drop. He will respect
your sense and come to terms of his
OWL aCCOfu.
Men must be taken as they are, not
as they should be; they improve un.
der the refining influence Of mutual
love, and he is a wretched specimen
Of humanity who cannot be counted
on 10 shield his wife from the buffets
of the world and be an anchor wheL
youth and beauty have proved un.
faithful.
To he born a woman is 10 be born a
martyr, but the husband that is wortl
wedding is worth keeping; aud if
little artifce, a pleasant smile, a con
tented heart, forbearance, devotion and
tact viii hold him, by all ;means let
him be held. -Pittsburg Commercial
