Every girl has what she calls her
candy beau" but she seldom marries
MN. You cannot touch a girls heart
by upsetting her digestion. An impor-
tant point to remember just here is
that the man who would win favor
by means of gifts must give discreetly.
A woman will think more of a five
cent bunch of field flowers if they com

have no special significance, and that
are just sent, hit or miss.

Common fairness, though. demands
that man should help out with the
| conversation. From the time a girl
IS old enough to understand anything
! she is taught that her chief aim in life
! is TO entertain man, and everywhere
you go you can see her toiling like a
coal HEAVIER trying to make CONVEX
| satlon with some man who is lust as
unresponsive as a store dummy, and
! as silent as a Sphinx. 1t isn't a fair
division of labor, and if a man wants
to win true gratitude, let him chin
in and help roll the conversational

BE bold, be bold be not too bold"

compliments as if he meant them.
Women can always detect shop worn
f1attery that has done duty with a
| hundred other women before it was
passed out TO them. There is no surer
way to a Womans heart than through
her vanity, but it takes an artist to
get there by it.
Women like a strong man. Because
she has no backbone of her own the
one thing that a woman admires most
on earth is a vertebra. There are
men who think to make themselves
popular with women by being good
natured and useful. They viii take
girls to parties and let them dance
with other men, they will let girls
make enga gements with them and then
break them, they will suffer themselves
to be called upon as escorts when other
beauX fail. This is a fatal policy.
The man who makes himself con-
Venience to a woman will never be-
come a necessity to her, and she will
invariably pass him up for some man
that she doesn't dare to treat badly
for fear that he will never come back
again.
| The last and most important point
in winning a woman's favor-and if
man forgets all the rest let him
remember this-is not to stay too long
when he goes to call. More men have
uueered themselves right here than
anywhere else. No living human be-
ing can be brilliant for more than thr-
ty minutes at a stretch, or enter
tanning for a longer space of time
than an hour, or endurable for more
than two hours, In that time any
man can say any thing he has got
to say that is worth hearing, and if
he fingers along until the clock yawns
in his face he is simply defying fate
and counting disaster. Many a good
impression is spoiled by too much of it.
Of course, no general rules can be
laid down for winning the fancy of
the fair sex. What has been said pre-
tends to be no more than the most
elementary suggestions on the subject
but a guarantee goes with each hint
that it will work.
