New YORK. Nov. S-There is always q
question rampant in New York among the
women. say rampant" advisedly, fol-
they get so very much interested in it tha
they can't even meet each other in the
street cars without bringing it to the fore
They discuss it at luncheons and at afte,
dinner talks in the drawing-room, and after
it has been talked about and talked about
until 1T is threadbare, then new one i:
brought to the surface. Just now it is
blondes and brunettes. Every place yon
so, they ask you what you think about
them, aad she is lost forever, from the cult
ure standpoint, who believes that she must
reply as to which type of beauty she
prefers, or what she thinks of bleached
blondes. No, it is question OF intensity of
feeling and ability to hold the affections of
man. The vote is strongly in favor Of the
blonde as far as holding the man is con-
cerned, but in favor of the brunette so far
as affection goes.
a HINT FOR BRUNETTEs.
Two positive types, the blondest of
blondes and the darkest of brunettes were
talking of il. Said the blonde: "You
brunettes always make the mistake of be-
ing too affectionate. You let a man
think that he is the one object in your lite
and all you live for. He Is so certain that
he grows Indifferent. He wearies of YOUR
caresses; he tires of your sweet words
You see. you give him too much plum pud-
ding and he doesn't appreciate it. Now,
the way to keep man Is to make him love
you, but don't you love him too much Let
him realize that he is secondary to your
dogs, your frocks and your books. When
he Is with you, be at your best and bright
est, and when you do show him a favor
make him feel it ksenly."
NEVER WRITE OR DESTROY LETTER
The brunette said: But am so perfectly
devoted TO the man love that trust him
with anything would write anything |
felt like, and am sure nobody would see the
letters but his own dear SELF
"How about his valet!" asked the blonde,
and suppose he should change his mind, or
you should change yours, and he would
marry another woman, and she would have
the pleasure Of reading those letters and
cr1tlclse them? For my own part, l always
follow the doctrine of the French dipio-
mat who said. Never write let
ter, and never destroy a letter,'n The
brunette looked crestfallen, the blonde
looked sweetly judicial, and little while
after the believing brunette heard that the
one man she adored in all the world had not
been to mems supper party the night be-
fore, but had been one among a party of
admirers who had given theatre and sup.
per party to the judicial blonde. And the
question as to blonde and brunette still goes
on.
