FLIRTING FOR PROFIT.

Flirting. that heartless pastime
which all people condemn loudly and
most people more O. less slyly INDUCE
in. is not wholly without its uses.
Pearson's Weekly tells of London
jewelers., hotel keepers. commercial
travellers and others who resort TO II
for profit with fine success.
A young jeweler, in particular. finds
flirting to be his most effective meth
cd of advertisement. On being ad.
vised by a friend recently to marry
and settle down, he said nothing wound
please him better, but he was prevent
ed from doing so by the fact that mis-
clientele is largely composed Of mem
bers OF the gentler sex and tnat his
business prosperity depended almost
solely upon his remaining single aud
disengaged.
The citing OF this particular in
stance might seem 10 indicate that
flirting for profit is unusual anl ex.
traordinary. But It Is not.
Flirting is by no means the aimless
pastlme II appears to be. Cynical per
sons may look upon It as a kind of
madness. but II II deserves that de-
scription 1t is certainly a madness in
which there is OTTER no lack Of method.
For instance, a young author may
find a good deal Of inspiration for his
stories in this way. Perhaps older
ones would If they could but only the
young are susceptible TO such seduc.
tlons.
Let us suppose that the young au-
thor draws most OF his characters
from life and to obtain his strikingly
deep and varied knowledge OF differ.
ent types OF womanhood he has re-
course to flirting on quite an extensive
plan. Thus he may get love scenes
hot from the furnace. He may give a
naturalness and fidelity to his action
and emotion that lend a very con zinc.
ing air of realism to his pages.
The artist. the musician, the poeC.
the actor, for all that anybody but
themselves may know, may frequently
resort to the same spring OF informa
tion.
Flirting is for some people an edu-
cation; a school Of experience. teach.
ing the knowledge necessary 70 Sc
lection Of suitable partner
A woman does not buy the hrst hat
that is offered her; she puts on one
after another and parades with ii be.
fore the mirror, critically observing
its effect; she carefully studies every
curve and ribbon and flower and feaih-
er; she discards them one after one,
until only the most desirable one is
left, and with that she goes home
happy.
Now the same critical "trylng On
of young men. the discarding Uf the
Objectionable and the se'ec,ion of the
most desirable might make her as hap
by in her husband as she IN her
hat.
But alas! while the young woman
selects her hat she allows her hus-
band to select himself, and it is the
husband that is most often the mis-
At.
Somebody has observed Ia Al the girl
who has the most hnaux makes the
best wife. Maybe there is some hard
sense in H. There may be proet in
flirting even when one is looking for
nothing more than the nate that Is
most suitable.
OF course, there is the other side Of
the matter. Flirting for pleasure or
profit is by no means invariably a safe
game to play. Edgei ,o)is are always
dangerous in the hands 1f the mex

STRONGEST EVIDENCE OF FAITH.
Geo. w. StansfieId Guarantee That
Hyomei Will Cure the Worst Case
of Catarrh in Topeka.

When one of the most reputable con-
Germs in Topeka guarantees that a
medicine will effect a cure or he will
refund the money, it speaks volumes as
to the merits of that remedy. 1t is in
this way that Geo. w. Stansaeld is
selling Hyomei the treatment that has
made so many remarkable cures of
both acute and chronic catarrh in To-
peka and vicinity
Hyomei is not pill nor is it a liquid
that has to be taken with a tablespoon
or winegIass. Just breathe it by the aid
of an inhaler that comes in every out
fit and bene5t will be seen from the
erst treatment.
It destroys all germ life in the air
passages and lungs and enriches and
purifies the blood with additional ozone.
1t cures catarrh of the head and throat,
or of the stomach, liver and kidneys.
Whenever mucous membrane contains
catarrhal germs, there Hyomei will do
it's work of healing. When using this
trea tnnent- the air you breathe will be
found like that on the mountains high
above the sea level. where grow bal
samic trees and plants which make the
air pure by giving off volatile antisep-
tic fra GRANGE that is healing to the res
piratory organs.
A complete Hyomei outfit costs but
500. and includes an Inhaler, dropper
and sufficient Hyomef for several weeks
treatment
Remember that If Hyomei does not
cure you. Geo. w. Stansfield will re-
fund your money. This is good time
to cure catarrh. by this natural method
and prevent catarrhal colds that are
so common at this season.
