HOW TO SLeAse THE oiRls.


From tho time you begin 20 pay atten-
ton to any set OF girls you want to study
30 please them. and you want to keep
ON stndying % long as you live. Don't
txy 20 got out OF II by saying that you
haven't much money. aud that every.
thing that girls liko costs an awful lot.
The poorest Of you manage to find
money enough 70 keep yourselves on good
tsus with the boys. You have some
habit OF indulgence which you spend
nmey to crafty. Think the matter
over and mako MP your mind which you
kks bosS-ths boys. your own pet gratif-
cations or the girls II you can't put
tho girls first you had better drop them.
Il may be hard to do. but It's aasier and
less humilisting than to have them drop
you. II you haven't much TO do with,
do ths best you can with what you have.
No moro vill b expected OF you than
what you can do.
Don't drop into sentimental dismal.
ns1 because you can't buy an opera box
Ike some city swell. or drive fast
horse Ike some smart fellow in the
country. II Is net 30 much tho cost Of
What yon do as the way You do IL that
the GIRL viii notice and talk about. II
You'll DO man enough to study girls
tastes and gentleman enough to think
shuut them real hard, you viii find
ways Of showing what sort Of stun Is
In you, no matter how poor you are.
Usually girls get up all the parties, and
Che young msn accept such ahairs as
naturally as II they were meals at homo
OF tho boarding house. or something
else to which they are entitled, instead
Of special courteaies, which deserve
special recognition. IL isn't custom for
Q young fellow to get up parties on his
own eccount, but he ought to have
enough mAnliness and manners to devise
sune means OF returning the compli-
m0ut.
n he can't do il with his own purse
and brains no can get some other fellow
to help. Any two OF three clever young
fellows can fnd plenty Of ways Of enter
tanning or amusing their entertainers II
they viii pool their brains and pocket
hooks. II they're not clever, the best
thing they csn do Is to make themselves
% as soon q possible, for they can't ever
e1pect to be "solid" with the girls with.
out IL.
Don't imagine yourselves generous be-
oause you spend time thinking what
lovely things you would do for the girls
if,you only had lots Of money. Any
fool can do that and yet die a. mean as
Q skindint It takes thinking and work
and self denial for any one to be gener-
ous unless he has great deal more
money than he knows what to do with,
and nobody ever knew Q man IS rich as
that Besides there arc plenty Of ways
Of doing nice things for the girls with
ont Spending much money, and youn
end out some Of them II only you'll be
generous with your time and wits.
ifyou can afford cigars, OF even Gig
arettes, you can afford to do the proper
thing for tho girls Ono common cigar
O day costs as much as two good theater
tickets @ month. Fewer scaYfpins mean
more bouquets, and one bouquet win go
further toward making you "solid" with
girl than q whole jewelers. case full Of

A suit of clothes little less costly than
the one you meant to buy will savo you
tho price Of ride OF two for tho girl,
who viii caro- moro for one ride than for
all ths clothes you may try to show OF
In. A giri's own clothes are all she can
pay attention to. unless the others ere
shabby or ct badly.
No matter Whist you do. though, fog
tho dear creatures, you must put your
generosity into your manners a. well %
into your doings. Don't act, % o good
many young fellows do. as II you were
paying Q debt when you do anything
nice for tho girls, for whatever they dc
for You lint for psy-it's o gift, and
must be returned in the same spirit Il
yuu wiah it to DO welcome Always do
cou rteous deed as II you were receiving
favor, for that's what it ought to up
pear to your mind, and that's what II
really amounts TO II you are the right
sort of o fellow. There are some young
men who pay their social debts with thu
cir Of Q man paying bill, and tho gtrii
ore very quick to catch on to that sort
Of thing.-Chicago Globe.
