DON'T GlGGLE, GIRLS.
Nothing More Infectious and Charm.

Nothing More Infectious and Charm
ing Than Good Laugh.
If half the ,strls knew how silly they
looked and sounded when they con-
stantly giggled they would stop it.
Learn to smile, not giggle.
Nothing is more infectious and
charming than good laugh, but very
few people know how to laugh 1t is
as rare in life as it is on the stage.
A giggle usually comes from nerv-
BUSINESS. A girl will giggle when she
cannot think of anything to say or
when she is trying to be at ease in
company.
She will giggle when boy meets
her and says Good morning." She
will giggle when he says "Goodby."
She is only nervous, but she appears
silly.
1t is no wonder that young men
speak with utter scorn of the gigglng
girl. They seem to think her the least
attractive maiden on earth. 1t is try
iiio w attempt W uoiu any hIlll Oh COLI
versation with a girl who will punctu-
ate her every remark with giggles.
1t is not always possible to know at
first thought whether or not you are
one of the girls who gggle Stop and
think about it. Watch yourself the
next time you are with any one. See
whether this senseless trick is a part
of your social equipment If it is.

gfggle until it is dead
Far better he silent You may then
get the credit for wisdom that you
have not got Better than all, if you
don't know how to give a CHEEKY mu-
steal, spontaneous laugh then try your
best to learn how to smile
Do not let yourself give weary
smile for that is the result of effort
and self consciousness, but anything
is better than a silly giggle.
