vi1l not only make an unsuitable wife,
hut a poor directress.
A qirl should not be carried away
nth The idea that she is the most ele-
oant GIRL in town because several young
men happen to call on her. Such an
idea leads to unpoPularity.
IF YOU are wise and hope that the
f,turc has good things in store for you
Won must learn to be particular with
wbom YOU associate.
How many girls stop to think that
every emotion of the mind, each ugly
EXPRESSION or thought, each tender
sympathy or noble yearning or aspira-
tion, leaves trace upon the features,
deepening the lines that make either
beauty or ugliness?
Let every girl to whom this points
enter into a serious, solemn compact
with herself and be resolved to make
the most strenuous efforts to form good
habits.
Don't be conspicuous or suspicious,
for one is as bad as the other. To be
conspicuous one is abominable, and to
be suspicious one is unhappy and has
but few friends.
The girl who associates with women
whose character is questionable will
soon be ruined.
Teach yourself how to forget disa-
greeable things and acquaint yourself
with the art of enjoyment. By so do
/ Ing YOU can make others happy.
Don't allow young men to be famil-
4 lar with YOU. Men are peculiar beings

the chief ornaments of true woman

Don conclude that your beau is all

/ knaye.
A girl should not marry a man until
/ she has studied his character and &C
/ duainted herself with his habits. Oft
times man with bad habits will make
better husband than one whose hab-
its are good. A man with bad habits
will ofttimes be guided by a good wo
man and become a model man.
Don't bother with the man who lily
treats his mother, for he will have but
little respect for other females.
It's a very ugly habit to whisper in
company. If what you want to say
cannot be told aloud reserve it for an
other occasion.
Girls should not accept the company
Omen for the sake of gift, for it has
atendency TO lower them in their eSti-
nation.
Keep your family affairs to yourself.
