tice. II man is SO much inter 4sted in
a girl that he must know her better,
and sees no other way. he may be eX-
cused for making such a request.
Another condition that excuses the
man if he asks to cali exists when he
thinks the girl does not really know
whether he wants to or not and hest
tates to invite him for that reason.
Then he is to be pardoned for request
i-g TO be allowed to see her again. But
under most conditions, men are inclin-
ed 10 look askance at others Who seek
such invitations. The practice savors
too much of the social climber.
When the girl to whom such a re-
quest is made does not want to receive
the person who makes it, she is likely
to find herself in an embarrassing sit
uatiOn. The safest way out is to say
yes" and then rely on showing the
caller, when he appears, that bis re-
quest was a mistake. She can be
out" But if there is no reason why
she should not receive him and he is
rot open to rejection on any social
grounds, there is nothing for her to do
bat to consent to receive him. Most Of
the foreigners who come to-. this cOun-
Try make their way through New York
drawing rooms by this simple method
of asking if they may not call. But
among American men the practice is
not popular-From the New York

LOVE MAKING.

A Religious Opinion That Romance De
clines in Our Complex Modern Life.
For several reasons there is less ro-
nance in and more holding back from
love- making than formerly. Not that
youth is less susceptible. Here there is
no change But young men have grown
more anxious concerning ways and
means than their fathers were, more
solicitous to have an income that will
warrant their marrying and beginning
home life, and more doubtful to make
a wife happy on small means than men
used to be. Many young men are so
agreeably established in pleasant
bachelor quarters, where they have
home comfort in addition to independ-
ence, that they do not know the fore
lorn estate of the man who is en-
camped in the dreary waste of board
ing house.
Girls, on the other hand, have be-
come self-supporting to an extent
hitherto undreamed of. Those who go
to college are fitted for professional
career, and often, having spent four
years in college study, and two or
three years more in direct training for
medical work or teaching, or journal
ism, they prefer spinsterhood. Great is
the delight a woman has in earning
money, in finding that her talents are
of value and her services worth an
honorable sum, almost equal to the
amount man can earn, in the worlds
market. Thousands of young women,
too, who never go to college, earn their
bread and assist their families. Some
times these girls know that they can
not easily be spared from home; some
i times they have grown Indifferent to
marriage, and sometimes they feel
above the men who would naturally
seek them, while they are not the So
cial equals of men whom they admire.
Life has taken on too manifest Il
cOmpleXiity in many places. Artificial
wants are multiplied. A man might
make a very comfortable livelihood for
girl who would live very simply
within his meals, but he cannot afford
much hired help or much entertaining
or many chiffons. Feeling this acutely,
he oft does very scant Justice to the
sensible girl, who if asked, would ac-
cept him and cheerfully accommodate
herself to his day of small things

GIRLS REASONS FOR PREFER
ZINC THE SHOE


The Wisconsin State Labor Bureau
has been collecting reasons Why girls
prefer work in factories and stores tc
household service. Inquiries were sent
to 1853 persons. Among the answers
were these:
IF ladies would only give girls better
rooms, kinder treatment and warmer
beds and let them live independently
more girls would do homework"
Il went into the factory because
wished to be treated like human be-
Ing"
The reason I won't do Homework is
because I won't be treated like half a
slave and always a nobody"
It love homework; but, like the host
of other girls. refuse to do it under
present conditions"
None of the girls I know would dc
housework, because a girl who does il
is always looked upon as a kitchen
drudge, always on duty and seldom
treated justly"
Il am treated better in the factory in
every way, and, besides, am no long
er obliged to entertain in the kitchen
OF receive NY lIl1EluS dL LIE pdGh uUoLl
since I can live at home with my own
people"
There is no sign in these replies OF
an insistence on the part of servants
that they be regarded as members OF
the family. They desire as little to in
trude. on other circles as they wish for
intrusion upon their own. But they
complain justly when the fact of sociai
distinctions is thrust upon them with
bold brutality. The Wisconsin answers
which would probably be good for any
other State, suggest that upon the un-
tactful mistress of the house lies a
large burden Of responsibility for 1.-THE
