clear gray ewes, while her brown hair is |
drawn back in great knot from which
little tenderils will escape and curl about |
her nuck. take up the spectacles OF truth,
and look at Miss Primrose. and say, |
MY dear. the young lady you talk about |
IL not beauty, except by report. Inc
newspapers must have something 10 write
about, and when this girl appeared, az she
was ordinarily good looking and had
EsrH eHlcR AND CHEEK,
she called herself beauty, forced herself
on the notice OF tho world, insisted upon
her perfcctions until people who had
never thought OF her at all, accepted her
own account of her loneliness, and so the
name has stuck to her. She has the fair
complexion of u Swede. hair and eyes to
correspond and an absolutely expression
less face Her reputation is like that of 4
successful patent medicine; the result OF
good advertising. The handsomest women
in America come from the smaller cities,
and If New York wanted Il beauty show it
would have to draw its best cards from
Philadelphia, Baltimore, Richmond, New
Orleans, st. Louis and San Francisco, hot
to mention Chicago and Louisville"
Little Miss Primrose is satisfied and is
wondering now about q certain fashion
able marriage, and what the woman mar.
ried the man for. can't explain it.
I'VE LII MERELY MARRY.
The reasons for marrying are SO peculiar.
Some women marry because 1t Is the
proper thing to DO.
Some women marry because they want
| a home of their own.
Some women marry because they
haven't the moral courage TO remain
| SINGLE
Some women marry because they want
u little more money in their purses and
u little larger credit ut the shops
Some women marry because they want
"Alrs" put on their visiting cards.
Some women marry because their
| mothers want them to.
Some women marry because man has
asked them to and they don't like to say
| no
Some women marry for moncy-monoy
and nothing else,
Some women marry because they love
the mgn, because they want TO be his wife,
his friend aad his companion; because
they want to make him feel there is one
woman in the world whom he can love
and cherish, and from whom he will re.
ceiye love and consideration in return.
Because they want to feel that ii sorrow
comes, he has sympathizing, loving
friend close beside him, and that in the day
OF JOY there is one that can give him
smile for smile. These are the
WOMEN WORTH MARRYING.
The others are of little worth, and never
would be missed if they dropped out Of
the matrimonial handicap. That sound;
little racy, but il is what it is called some
times Marriage is too often Handicapped
, by lack OF love, lack Of companionship
; lack OF sympathy. You want your boy
/ to get the exceptional woman, and so do /
| for what man is, is what the woman ii
loves makes him. Womea rule everything
Really the court, the camp, the grove
/ And Just as really, all men below AM
saints above. What is your special king
dom? 1t ought to be u comfortable home
/, And who is your special slave? 1t ough
! to be loving man. Ii it isn't SO, IN
= sorry for you. If IL is SO, congratulate
: you. Congratulate you most sincerely
: and when that is said by the lips, 1T come
Z from the heart Of Bah.
