WHAT ONE WOMAN OBSERVES.
DAVID A. MILLS,
Secretary of State.

To be contented you must be good
friends with yourself.
The man who is bravest in words
is often weakest in action.
Women with double chins are apt to
be exacting in love affairs.
Hope is memory that Graves; rec
objection Is memory sated.
To be born without humor one loses
two-thirds of lfes enjoyment.
The womanly woman is born-not
made. She is not only good but good
for something
A woman is proud to see come back
to her side the man whom she has
left perfectly tree.
If you are fond of woman tell her
so, it cannot hurt you, and it will
make her much happier.
1t is not always good looks and
wealth that capture, it is rather the
come hither" in the eye!
No man has the power of reaching
his own ideal, unless he inculcates
that ideal in the mind of others.
Women are more ambitious in love
than men; not only do they wed the
heart, but they must share the
thoughts as WELL
The unfailing symptoms of waning
love in man is gradual Indifference
to the little things that for time
meant so very much to him.
Nothing in the world can exceed
the utter loyalty with which woman
respects the confidence of man TO!
whom she has genuine liking.
Beauty in man is rather irritating
There is SO little of it TO 60 around
that 1t seems pure wastefulncss to
bestow it where ii is not needed
The majority of men want thret
things: They want to be understood
they want to be sympathized with anc
they want to be liked for themselves
Women as a rule care very littlr
about the law, possibly because the
have had no share in making it. The
they look at everything in very
personal way.
