Ask, Don't Bluff.

1t Is one of the worst signs of liz.
norance to be afraid to ask questions
II you don't know thing. ask what
1t Is outright. Don't bluff, for by
butiing you show bad breeding and
Il lack of knowledge of the world be-
sides.
| have seen few women of inferior
education and social position who
would ever admit they didn't know
the meaning Of anything, and they
scarcely ever would own up that they
were mistaken.
have held conversations with such
people out of pure mischief when l
knew they were all at sea just for lack
OF asking a simple question, a question
they would choke before they would
utter. Their replies and their HELPLESS
hOunderings have been as pitiful as
they were absurd.
So much for the false pride of igno-
rance.
On the other hand, women who have
travelled all over the world are never
AFRAID to speak up and admit some
thing Is new to them. They ask cues
tons all the time, and that is WHY
they know something.
Not to ask questions when you are
ignorant Is a sign that you know moth
ing and that you never will know any,

Why Not Be an Euotl.tf

There Is much mistaken sentiment as

pleasant to the beholder and unfor.
tunate for the possessor, but II all of
self love. or, rather. the love of other
peoples admiration and good will, were
to be extinguished there would bs little
to hold society together and less to
give impetus to the great enterprises
which spring from individual thought
