How to Marry Well.

What girls should never forget is to be
neatl Not primly so, but daintily 30. The
girl we'll got up. with irreproachable gloves,
and shoes that fit, though her gown be only
cotton, yet, if it be well turned cut, may
compete with the richest, while the slovenly
dresser, who scorns or forgets to give atten-
tion to details, is passed over by the discon-
tented eye, though her gown may be mas
terpisce of Worth's.
A girl should learn to put her gown on
properly. No creature living takes more
heed of externals than your orthodox man.
He may not know the price, color, or ma
terial Of your clothes, but he will know to
a nicety whether you are well or badly
gowned.
One special point I would impress upon
the girl Who desires, (as all girls do) to
range themselves well, to make good mar
riage--is to be gentle. The craze for viyac-
ity, for the free and easy style that border
so closely on the manners of the demi-
monde that distinguished the society of ten
years ago has providentially died natural
death. Nowadays, men are sensible
enough to look for comfort in their married
lives. And surely the knowledge that one's
future wife has a heart as tender as it is
sympathetic should, and does, go far to az
range mans decision of who shall be the
partner Of his daily life.
