COLLECTING OLD DEBTS.

Some of the dead beats Of the Twin
Cities should be treated to the new
methods Of collecting agencies like the
following, which is being introduced in
Maine towns: A young woman of great
attractiyeness is the advance agent, and
between her own attractions and those
of her scheme she is said to be having
complete success. She calls on the
local merchants and secures their
membership in the new agency. A few
days after her departure there appear
in town a number of men dressed IN
bright green coats, who get the particu-
lars of old debts and debtors from the
members and then proceed to call on
the Victims The contract provides
that the horribly conspicuous collectors
shall make fifteen calls a day on each
creditor, meeting them anywhere and
everywhere.
The scheme is reported to be a big
success, as most of the debtors are glad
to make prompt settlement rather than
have the whole neighborhood see them
haunted by the green-cOated specter.

What Women Like in lien.

Women, on their part, like manly,
not womanish men. They like honesty
of purpose united with consideration.
They like men who believe in woman,
They like their opinions to be thought
of some value. They like q man who
can be strong as a lion when trouble
comes, and yet, if the woman i'll his
care is nervous and tired, can button a
shoe or draw off a glove or smooth a
pillow with unobtrusive helpfulness.
They like man who can even master a
baby, convincing it of his power and
reducing it to subsection and sleep
and helpless. They like a man, who,
however large his own concerns, is
interested in their new dresses and can
give an opinion on symmetry, color and
fit. They like Il man who knows their
innocent weaknesses and caters to
them; who will bring home a box of
fruit, the latest magazine, or the clever
puzzle sold on the street, and take bis
part in entertaining the household for
an evening They like a man who is
master of every situation, who has wit
enough to realize, when one of their
sex is slightly stubborn, that persuasion
is more powerful than argument. They
like man who likes them-who doesn t
scorn their opinions, who believes in
their good taste, who has confidence in
their truth, and who, most of all. knows
that the love promised is given him.
That's the sort Of man woman likes
and her every sigh of qualification is a
little prayer God bless HIM"
