HOW TO ATTRACT MEN.


lair Sex.
Fascination can be explained: mag
netism cannot. The woman who ha
been given The hirthright OF magnetism
represents the triumph of matter owe
mind. The woman who has acquired tn,
art of fascination represents the tri
umph of mind over matter-men. Maj
is q mathematical problem that a WON
an must analyze, measure and weigh.
Men have less imagination than WON
en-, and it must be continually catered
to by tangible aids. They do not wor
ship an ideal, but a creature possessed Of
the virtues they have seen in Other
women.
The progressive woman who talks Of
"woman's sphere may get an equal
share of the opportunities of this world
with man. but when she puts herself OF
& level with him socially. intellectually
and physically he will turn to the WON
an who is willing to acknowledge bis
superiority. He has thought himself
lord of creation" for so many genera,
tons he will turn to the woman whe
helps prop up his declining monarchy.
Men must be worshiped. They want tc
be loved more than loving; they want
notice; they hunger for sympathy and
attention. When hearts are trumps,
iattery is the right bower. Men are
humbugged and want to be because
they like it. The majority of men come
to women for repose rather than for ex-
citement. They want to be made much
Of and prefer a coed listener to a brilliant
conversational.
To a man mystery, If he feels conf
dent it is wholesome, has an endless
charm. The schoolgirl lays bare her
heart; the woman of the world keeps
something back. The fire CT love may
occasionally be fed by a brand of jeal-
ousy. Do not be easily won. Men like
the charm of the chase. 1t is a true
saying, THE mi who filings herself
at q mans heart finds herself at his
feet.'
Stocks and the tariff are taking the
sentiment out of men, so help them re-
tain the little they have.
Men like to lie asked questions, but
before you ask be sure they can answer
you to their own satisfaction. Do not
make the mistake of having them con
fess they are ignorant of the subject.
You need not be ~"prcachy'' to have
a beneficial effect ON a man, but what

calls him by his first name on short ae-
quaintance and allows a lassitude of
etiquette in her presence? Refinement
and polish are important factors. Let
him feel be is elevated by being in your
society. No man will be fascinated by
the woman be can bend to his will. Do
not let him feel he can absorb your
personality. A servile attitude will gain
you nothing but contempt.
To have your favors appreciated be
economical in bestowing them.
A man will reverence the woman who
has the moral courage to punish him
when he deserves it, but he must be
punished through his best feelings.
Be pretty. Aman likes the poetry of
a woman's attire. He likes sweet scents
and laces. Have one mingled with the
other. Wear N odor that would sug-
gest your personality at the other end Of
the globe-a knot of ribbon in the hair.
a flmy handkerchief, a fan. a dainty
shoe buckle, a bunch of flowers. a thou
sand and n of the coquetries of dress
which create an impression men can
understand and women appreciate.
1T women would fascinate, let it be
by the brain-the only fascination that
lasts. That wandering, intangible some
thing called a mans heart is often won
by the turn of a pretty head, the flash
OF bright eyes, the CLEAN Of white teeth.
But if there are no ideas in the pretty
head-and women's ideas amuse before
they instruct men-no soul in the bright
eyes, no iepartee helped into life by the
white teeth, it becomes simply the fas-
cination of the eye-a fascination that
will die a cold, blind death.
Touch a mans nature on all sides.
Be q spherical woman.
