e---= to make mighty conquests in love? lSzAJ There would appear to be some par
 ticular charm about sweethearts of homely aspect, for three-fourths of the young brdegrooms one sees not distinguished for their handsomeness by any means but are just commonplace looking individuals if not down right plain.
 What IS more, hundreds of them carry off the prettiest girls and, what IS still further observ- able, the welded bliss of such pairs is patent to all There must be some reason why SO many wives are perfectly happy with their ugly hus, bands, while others with handsome ones regret the day they married.
 The bare truth of it is, that the handsome mans vanity requires constant feeding whereas the plain fellows lack of it enables him to min ister to the means that led his chosen one to appreciate him, and him alone.
 The plain is humble. He feels that he has nothing to boast of regards personal ap- pearance, and if he has an intellect that towers above that of his well lfavored rival, he minimizes instead of magpifies it's potency For the man of brains never thinks they will further his love-makiDg though, a matter of fact, more women admire masculine cleveTness than masculine beauty.
 Penetrated by a sense of his handicap, he pUr- sues his wooing with infinite zest, never losing 8 chance of advancing step in his sweetheart'5 favor, and when that step has been aimed, haz- arding its retTacement by no caprice, no outburst Of M-temper, neglect.
 So sure does sthe handsome lover feel of his position, and so very certain that if he should lose his girls love he immediately secure ait. others, that he IS careless in trifes, and f is by trifes that girls gauge the affection of their admirers
 What woman eherishes more than any other characteristic in her sweetheart k his whole hearted devotion, and when she realizes that. his cause is won. He is not "ladv's man" tbis homely looking individual. He will not be called upon to withstand the Establishments of other girls, who, as the result of sheer thonGhtIessness if not of unkind malice, may seek to tempt him from ais allegiance. He Is man of simple pur- pose, who has made up his mind to marry and settle down. and who wants the woman he loves to take him as 8 husband.
 When he is married he regards himself the proudest of oonquerOrs- He hears bachelors around him delightfully."- boasting of their free dom, while he hugs his chains. He knows with absolute conviction that his state is better than theirs, and he rejoices that to him was given. perhaps to make up for a lack of good looks. s special sense of what is worth most to a man namely, a wife and home, and the strength of purpose to secure both early.
 This does not altogether account for bis ,r;fs,, beauty. Surely, however, the logical conclusion Is obvious. Who knows better than A pref+v 7irJ what reliance may be placed in a plain husbands No girl who is lovely dslikes the homage tIat an pay her, but she knows well the pitfalls in in- discriminate admiration.
 So she puts on her thinking cap and comes to the conclusion that just as a pretty girl is baant with admirers, 30 is a handsome man: and tbc conviction comes to her that as a husband she 7rlI infinitely prefer the plain sweetheart. who thinks her the most beautiful woman in tbe world, and has no eyes for any other girl
