A girl who will allow one young man
to consume all of her time for num-
Der of years, without asking her to be-

tact should help you to regulate your

be always jealous, as you say he is.
So long as he knows you care most for
him, he will not mind others paying
you attention.
Don't be fond Of teasing for by SO
doing you will heep trouble upon your
self unconsciously.

heart
Blessed is the woman, who is not
easily flattered, demands her rights
and sees that she gets esteem.
A woman who sympathizes readily
with sorrow or misfortune, and her re-
ligion is more in doing than saying
would make capital wife for parson.
Ambition to succeed, persistent ef-
forts, whole-hearted, with keen sense
Of excellent judgment and some wit
and sense of humor shown, marks the
person who is sure to prosper.
Some wives are very fond of their
own way, but very pretty in getting it,
by having good self control, even
temper and some ideality.
1t is better to love many well than to
love one too well, as it often turns out
your own detriment.
