do not know.
What is he'
A bachelor.
He has no wife, then2
But he does not seem 10 lack for female
| attention.
| Not in quantity
| What of the quality}
| Questionable.
But the women are very polite to him}
| That is because he is bachelor prima-
rily and also primarily because he has
money.
Are women polite to all rich bachelorsl
That seems to be the general impress
sion
Why are they so polite}
They are trying to win them from that
condition.
| Whyl
Because women think man has no
right to remain a bachelor
Has he2
| 1t is easier.
What if the bachelor is poor7
| Poverty extends his rights somewhat in
womens Judgment
All women2
No only the careful ones; that is to
say, the thrifty ones.
Are all bachelors rich2
No. not in money
How do the rich ones get their wealth
Some are born rich, some achieve
riches, and some have riches thrust upon
them.
| And this one1
He was born rich and is having riches
thrust upon him.
| These women are rich2
Yes.
Why dan't they select poor bachelor
who needs assistance so much that he
will be good husband as stand-off to
his pricel
Money to money and money you have
But they take a poor one sOmetiT es,
don't they
A half loaf is better than no bread.
How old is this bachelorl
| Younger than most married men half
his age.
Don't bachelors ever gro W old?
] don't think | ever heard of one who,
when ne was first married, was not re-
| ferred to as young married man.
But he is old just the same3
| Certainly, but the money discounts his
age so far as the women are concerned.
| Are the women so mercenary as that}
| They are not mercenary at ALL it is
only a natural anxiety for a well-to-do
man without encumbrances.
| Would he make a good husbands
The chances are he would not.
Why not2
You can't teach an old dog new tricks.
Some old bachelors make good nus
| bands, don't theyl
oh yes, just as you sometimes find
white crow.
Why is he so pOpular2
Custom, presume.
| CUSTOM
Yes, custom allows him to be boyish,
confding, and emotional; it also allows
him to fiirt with every woman he meets,
and women like Irritation and fattery to
| their dying day.
DO they like to be firtcd withl
No; but they are willing to take little
risk in order to see other women suffer.
Is that statement quite fair to women}
Quite as fair as they are to each ther.
Does this bachelor want to marry
Not right away. Why should her He
has q dozen women to tlatter and caiole
him now, where one might not If she
were his wife.
| Does he like this caIolery?
! Does a bee like the flowersl
Must man be bachelor to enjoy this
sort of thing1
| NOb necessarily, DuJ ne Is less llaDlG TO
wifely interference.
| Doesn't it spoil a man to be made much
of by women?
| Bachelors are children in that respect
they can staud an unlimited amount of
/ cQddling.
Isn't it transitory2
He doesn't care.
| Why nOtl
| He is grasshopper.
| What's that2
He lives for the summer and takes no
| thought of the winter Of age
Would he If he were not a bachelor?
Wouldn't wife and children make him
hustle}
And he doesn't like that2
Does any man? 1t is an acquired taste.
Doesn't he I'll a useful place in the
| worlds economy as he is
Rather ornamental: still, as ornament
| has its use, he may be said to be useful
Age incapacitates him somewhat,
| doesn't it,
If there is anything more useless than a
bachelor past his three-score and ten, tits
not on record.
| How about an old maid?
| She can be useful and ornamental as
| long as she lives, if she will only half try.
| Can't the bachelor do the samel
He isn't built that way. He is too old
to be beau any longer, at least desira

Does he know he is coming to this2
AS the man who begins TO drink knows
| he will wind up in a drunkard's grave,
| but is willing to let the good time he has
while he lasts Offset it.
He is not an object of sympathy, then?
Yes, in so far as we are all sorry to see
a good man go to waste.
| Must bachelors be liberal with their
money to be popular with women3
Not always; they don't have to be.
1t is usually enough if they have the
| money.
| Whatgood is it if they don't spend it?
The women will spend it for them
when they have wrecked their bachelor
| hood.
| Ah2
| That is the supposition.
Aren't bachelors disposed to be rapid?
| Rather.
They don't go up hill very fast2
No; down hill; that's why they need
