aIE tiel SIlltp.C Vi dlIdI SIS, OSOi 20 Gi.Ot
wrote a short story called Brother
jaeeb.2 k.EllisastOry suggests itself at
;he present mement for reasons which
will he apparent. Brother Jacob was
au idiot and the author proved in her
story the futiliyeOfsanticipatin Jacobs
plan of action, because of the uncertain
workings of his mimi. The feminine
mind, when under the spell of Cupid, is
equally unyielding 10 the analyst. This
IS a generally acceded fact. The likeli-
est of women make circuitOuS journey
through the forest and gather up only
Z crooked stick at last. Within the last
TWO months Chicago girl has married
4 Chinaman and a Duluth girl elOped
with full-blooded Sioux.
The destinations of the family coach
man are not to be lightly estimated, and
in truth the prOsy. hOmespun man finds
his attractions entirely in eclipse.
The woman in the problem in hand is
not amenable to any law, because in
affairs of the feminine heart there is no
aw. The difficulty with the problem
IS therefore apparent.
Shall he win her in spite of herself
md how? Shall he forget her III spite
)f herself and how?
These problems are calculated to con-
:ume the midnight oil.
How shall he win her? There is no
advice so sure as that of plunging
wildly about i'll the vortex of expert
ment. Does your presence irritate her?
Then let your visits be few and far be
tween, like the visits of angels. Re-
mind her that you are near her in
spirit by sending her appropriate gifts.
Don't send your picture. If she doesn't
care for the original, she won't care for
his picture. If she scOrns devotion, try
10 find cut if there is another man in the
ease. If there is. you may as well give
Hp the first problem and devote your at
tention to the second one.
Shall you forget her? By all means.
How to forget her is another matter
But the chamelon-like nature of the
heart OF the man will be of assistance
20 you. The sterner sex has recorded
N the annals of history its ability to
shift the masculine affections with an
aptitude that is as charming as 1t is in
aXpicahle and convenient.
Time will prove TO be your best friends
Some men become inebriates because of
nnreQuited affection. But really this Ie
hardly worth while. and will give thr.
DbJect Of your affection great cause To-
9CiA- hl luiit!OI. IL you Stch COilSOid,
ZION in the flowing bowl for one sorrow
lou would for another, and she will re
gard her escape as fortunate one. The
hest aud most effieaeious method to pur-
sue i'll this case is one Of absolute re-
yenge. which you can bring about 10y
teing such a good man that she, after
-he Is married to your rival, will in time
rome to a realizing sense of the great
mistake she has made. Her abasement
will then be complete. She may some
day become widow. Stranger things
have happened.
The woman in whose hands was
placed this problem for solution would
like to know that the correspondent
succeeds in marrying the girl he loves.
This is an age when young men are
prone to esteem their liberty as the
surest means of acquiring happiness
The theory is mistaken one. The
man who starts out in life with an am
bition to acquire home of his own and
TO meet the responsibilities Of life with
the utmost degree of manlineSSof which
he is capable, to make the most of what
the Creator has given him, will find in
that home the field for the cultivation
of his talents, and the force of charac
Ter which will entitle him to a place
among men self-respecting and re
s>pected.
The discipline may sometimes be
severe, but diamonds are polished only
by severe attritiOn.
That's what the editor thinks. Wha
lave the women VINO read the GLOBE
30 say on the subject?
