Granted that men are deceivers
ever" there are few who can coun-
terfeit SO skillfully as to successfully
delude a woman upon this point.
Having convinced himself that he
really is in love, that he has found
the one woman of all the world for
him, his next step is to convince her
of the sincerity of his affection. All
women love to be loved, and, once
assured of mans affection,
straightway feel more or less inter-
est in that man. In order to con-
vince a woman of his love, it is
necessary for a man to show his
faith by his works. What wins a
woman's love most surely in a man
Is his capacity for love-making. His
devotion to her, provided it be not
oppressive, his tnnderness and ardor
will make her his more surely than
anything else in the known world.
The plainest man, who understands
the art of paying delicate little at
tentions to woman, who remem-
bers her tastes to crafty them, who,
for instance, does not forget her
birthday, may succeed as well or
better than the handsomest man who
thinks more of himself than of her.
IL is the part of a lover not only
TO make the most of himself but
also to make the most of her whom
he loves. 1t is exceeding sweet to
woman to know that she has been
raised upon a pedestal. The humil-
ity of her lover. provided there Is
nothing abject about It, is dearly
precious to the woman who loves.
Only let her know his ideal of her,
and II she Is worthy of his devotion
she will deem Il sacred privilege
TO be in fact all that his most
romantic fancy has pictured her.
And whatever a man may be to the
world, he owes II to the woman
whom he loves to be to her some
thing better than his common self.
There lies a poets heart in many a
man who never has written n line OF
verse; an artistic soul in many a
man who cannot draw a picture, a
nature In many a man
who cannot turn a tune. Thus in
every human being, whatever his
shortcomings may be, there is a bet
ter self, a purer nature, which II
should be his delight to show to the
woman he loves. II often is said
that lovers see in each other things
no one else can discover. Love is
blind" says the proverb. May not
the truth be that its vision is clearer
and stronger than that of any other?

A wooer needs persistence also.
He must be resolved to keep on no
matter how long it takes, and to
come up smiling, time after time, no
matter how many refusals he may
encounter. so long as he is sure no
one else has won the prize. Con-
slant dropping will wear away a
stone. and the man who perseveres
is apt to win.
Besides, all women are not difii-
cult to win. Some certainly are,
but there are many others who are
ready to drop like a ripe peach into
the arms of a lover. Nevertheless
it safely may be taken for granted
that every woman is source OF
anxiety and apprehension to the
man who is trying to persuade her
to marry him.
Above all the lover should watch
for chances and be ready to seize
the proper psychological moment.
"There is a tide" etc. Likewise
there is changeability in the
moods of most women which, taken
by the over in the nick of time,.
leads the two to the marriage altar.
For the man to whom the game Is
worth the candle, it is demanded
that he take time and pains.

HOW TO
WIN A
WOMAN
(By Helen oldheld.)

(By Helen Oldfield.)
II is a mistake to suppose that
the average man believes that, pro-
vided he Is willing to exert himself
and to take the time and trouble, he
can marry any woman of his ac-
quaintance who is not won already.
There undoubtedly are some men
who are so conceited. but this mum.
ber is relatively few. Unless he Is
uncommonly good looking or at
tractive, in which case the woman
he knows from his infancy have
combined to spoil him, the young
American OF today is disposed to be
modest and unassuming, rather than
otherwise. Moreover, this disposl-
tion upon his part usually is in
creased by his falling in love. The
effect of love upon the true lover is
TO make him different, even humble.
He exalts the lady OF his choice and
aliases himseslf, and In most cases is
quite ready 20 acknowledge that he
is not half good enough for her.
True. neither is any other man
worthy OF her in HIS eyes. but that
does not interfere with the fact OF
his humility.
He by no means imagines that he
has only 20 go in and win, and prob
ably no question so anxlously has
been pondered by the average young
man as this: How shall | win her?
Dare l hope to make her love me?"
To wrestle with the problem num-
berless lovers have trudged weary
miles, bored their friends 10 ex-
haustion, and OF nights tramped the !
floor in a fever OF impotent longing. |
Yet all this is more or less un-
necessary. There Is much truth in

New Variety Of WHEAT.

w. w. Scott OF Helix, was in the
city yesterday on brief business
visit aud for a visit with his friends
here. Mr., Scott reports that he has
had fattering success this year with
n new variety OF what, known as the
Dailes Glory, which he sowed last
spring. He says he sowed SO sacks
OF the new grain and that his har-
vest this season aggregated a total
% 400 sacks or an average OF
&C 3-20 bushels TO the acre. The
wheat Is considered an excellent va
riety for milling purposes, and the
berries are large. round and full.
MIR, Scott will grow another crop OF
the Dailes Glory next year. and his
neighbors will probably also take
mp the new wheat. which seems par
tieularly adapted TO the neighbor-
hood OF Walla Walla Union.

Merrily then the gay equestrians pinned

Jenny stood back in the shelter of the
house; Colonel Vernon clapped his hands;
off went the hounds, whimpering and sniff

riders in their wake-men, women, boys and

at sight Of their prey, the dogs bayed
men and women urged their horses into a

ing The warm blood manted her cheek;
her eyes danced. The Thanksgiving hunt
was at its zenith
Meanwhile Penny Hansen, having watched
the brilliant cavalcade sweep away, and hav-
ing deposited her burden of edibles with the
busy, busthng cook, had turned her face
homeward and walked slowly along the dus-
ty turnpike wondering in an innocent,
a difference between her lot and that of the
happy faced girls she had just seen, all con
pleasure bent"
For poor Jenny's heart was sadly heavy
this Thanksgiving morning, and the old, old
problem of ways and means" had come
very early to bother her young brain.
It had begun with the bad seasons. The
crops had not yielded SO well as usual on
their small three-acre farm; the COW had
died; she herself had been Ill, and for the
first time in her life her hard-working moth
rent as soon as It was due. Indeed. at that
very time she had gone to the landlord to
beg for few weeks grace.
"But no good will it be, and that fear"
sighed the little maid. For to Farmer
speedwell everybody does give a sad name:
They do say he has stone for heart, and
that he loves nobody-nobody but one in all
the world That one is his son. his son
Dan, the cripple. For him he win do any
thing, and much do wish this poor Danny
would speak good word for my mother,

So as She entered the little white cottage
only the cat welcomed her with soft purr
and rub of her velvety head; and then, as
it was mild Indian summer day, Jenny
left the door open as she set to work to
prepare their simple Thanksgiving dinner.
Before her eyes stretched a pleasant, rus.
set-hued picture of fields and woodland, and
afar off in the distance she could hear the
baying of the hounds and the cheerful sound
Of the merry horns, while, in spirit, she fol-
lowed the run of the gay hunting party
across the smooth, level plains.
'sIt seems to me that. the horns do grow
louder. I wonder will they pass this way"
she remarked to the gray grimalkin, who
growled uneasily.. and then. all at once,
with ferocious hiss and splitting and sput-
ter;ne like firecracker flew up on to the
table. as a tawny red something flashed in
at the open door; something alive and pant
ing. which flew by like a rocket, and took
