Girls Look Only ON the Bright and Pleas
ing Sides of Life.

Ing SIDES OF Lie.
A young man addresses to Edward w.
Box the query: "Why is it that in so
many cases, l might almost say the
majority Of cases, quiet, well-behaved,
earnest-minded, religious young mans
seriousness is ignored by SO many girls
(between l6 and 2O), and the company of
giddy, idle, senseless youths preferred?"
and in the July Ladies Home Journal
editorial reply is made. Mr.. Box con-
tends that girls at that age take few
things seriously, and are not given to
looking upon the serious side Of life;
that only the bright, pleasant side at
tracts them. at 10 only natural that to
a girl oisuch an age the young man Of
bright conversation, flippant and mean
ingless though that talk may be, has an
indeRnable attraction. She would far
rather have it that he can dance we'll
than that he can recite Emerson TO her.
II is the dancing time Of her lie, and
not the EmersoHian period. She is apt
TO notice q mans clothes more than his
character. She likes the man better who
pays her pretty compliment than the
one who says something serious. y y
The young man who pays her graceful
attentions ia pleasing to her; she does
not seek to penetrate beyond the mere
compliment. And why should she?
Young men are simply one form Of her
amusement; she does not take them any
more seriously than she does anything
else. The young man OF presentable
appearance, who dresses we'll and has q
command Of the small talk of society, is
her girlish Jack-in-the.box. The more
attention he pays her, the more he fiat
ters her, the better she is apt to like him.
The earnest young man who has Rmbi-
tion, who studies and learns, whose talk
is sensible rather than light, Is q bit tire
some to her. She may admire his high
purposes 80 far as she can grasp them.
She may respect him. But il she is
going to party she does not want his
company. She passes him by for the
other fellow who is graceful in the dance.
And is she to be blamed or to be cen.
Bured for this? Not bit Of it. While
she is a girl she does as a natural
healthy girl should: she lives her years
Of enjoyment and gets as much pleasure
out Of them as she can. For this she
is girl. But il he will watch her after
she counts her years with the figure two
he will observe that slowly but surely q
process OF gradual development takes
place In the girl whom he believed to be
without thought or reason. And equally
sure will be his discovery that the
companion OF her dances is not so eagerly
welcomed by her as once he was. He
will then gradually discover that the
girl is not the llght-minded butterfly
that he thought her to be. She becomes
interested in other things; conversations
which bored her year or two earlier
now begin to have some meaning for her.

appeals to the noblest sentiment of the

He is endowed with the ardor, energy

that leads to wealth and Office at tn,

What a change has come over the Re-
publican politicians of this congressional
district. In former years there has been
no end of candidates for the Republican
nomination for member Of congress.
This year it was different. Judge Morris
was nominated by reclamation at the
st. Cloud convention last week after
having been coaxed into accepting the
empty honor, which he did with great
deal Of reluctance. Wonder what's the
cause Of this great change. Is it because
their own ToWne is against them2 They
will find that their district is against
them also,

The Date Set.

q The Demo tic COMMITTEES of theS Sixth
,congressional district met in Duluth last
week and selected August ~ as the date
of holding the convention and st. Cloud
as the place it is to be held. 4.
The selection Of the date, says the Du-
luth Herald, is in sCongre ssman Towne's
interest. His friends desired to have it
as late as possible, and if they could have
had entirely their own way might have put
it even later. There were:a few men on
the committee, however, who are gold
Democrats, notably Charles Keith, Of
Princeton, and Andrew Gowan Of Clio
quet. They were not particularly
anxious to do anything to help Towne.
tThey might have preferred an earlier
date, but the one selected is acceptable
to all. .,l.. .s5.s S
By the time the convention will be
held the Democrats will know just what
the action Of the oliver Republicans and
Populists will be on the national and
state tickets. If there is unity Of action
Towne will be endorsed by the st. Cloud
convention without q doubt. #, how
ever, the st. Louis silver and Populist
conventions refuse to endorse Bryan,
the Democrats will not feel like endors-
ing Towne. They are willing to join in
afight for the silver canoe, but they want
some concessions from the other side.
The desire for q general silver ticket
is strong all along the line, and unless
hotheadedness prevails, all factions will
undoubtedly be united. There is no
question but that Mr.. Bryan, the presi.
DENTAL nominee, would regret to see
Mr.. Towne have a Democratic opponent.
He is a great admirer Of Congressman
Towne, and has watched his course with
great interest.
