NEW York, June l6.--lt has happened to
me lately to have been among ante
number of women. And have Thought
OF the great value of the pleasant woman.
she IS the one who is never in a row, she
does not walk around with 4 chip on her
shoulder inviting whoever may come near
her to knock it off; bit no matter whAt
she may think, she has a smile and a
pleasant greeting for every one. And it
ism because she is q fool though | have
heard her called that II is because She
thlnksit much easierto ride through III on
Easy street than to haze to aWkWardly
trot through Crooked lane. She is usually
the recipient of the woes of all the other
women; but her knowlege of life has
taught her that while She sympatAi2es
Win all to take sides with none The
young woman who delights iii saving that
she has temper of her own. shows a cor.
tain scorn for her; and that OTHER young
woman who is continually cooking for
enemies and not friends, considers her an
idiot; but after they have both expressed
these opinions, they end up BY saying,
but she is always very pleasant
Men like her for men are wise enough
10 like the comfortable side of HE and
she Is so comfortable. She doesn't carry
stories, and she is always ready to do the
nice little thing. When die would rather

slightest danger of the last being put there

what would be absolute devotion She
would lose her best friend for the sake Of

and in time, curtously enough, men don't,
For men are invariably ruled by women.
And when each individual man hears Of
the mean things the She has done to some
woman who is close 10 him, he lets less

any may have for the asking.
Nobody wants honey that is public

Is that which It requires an effort to get
