place for her pleasure and the pleasure
OF those around her. and goes there to
play to the end that she may enjoy the
game and help her companions 70 do so
also, she will become popular.
The affectionate woman is always pop
ular; and here, also. affection is the
mannerofexpressings sympathy with others.
and is as different a 5 possible from the
gush of the insincere woman, who but
Stimulates affection in order to make her
self agreeable.
