Don't YOU know that there are some
men for whom you feel an instructive
repulsion, without exactly knowing the
reason?
That was the way I felt; it was a
case of Il do not like you, Doctor Fell;
the reason why 1 cannot tell; but still
i do not like you, Doctor Fell"
As the days went by, knew better
why 1 disliked him.
His Manner Toward Women.
He had a way of talking to a woman
as though he were humoring her all
the time.
He would concede her side, in an ar
gument. but you knew it was because
he was thinking "Oh, well, you are
only a woman; what difference does 1t
make what you think? You are not
worth arguing with
Then 1 knew that, though outwardly
polite TO women, he had little respect
for them.
One day 1 watched a gentle little wo-
man talking to him. They were hav-
ing a discussion, and, though her
views on the subject did not amount TO
anything, she was doing her best
Some one called her away, and when
she left he turned to the man next him
and winked.

courtesy; and how 1 hated him for it!
The Saddest OF Marriages.
1 think the least happy marriage in
the world is the one where the husband
"condescends." His wife is merely
possession, on whom to scatter favOrs,
when the mood seizes him
She is never taken into his conf
dencess but is supposed to be duly
grateful for the honor of bearing his
children and making life comfortable
for him.

dening than to be treated as a DOLL
How little girls know about the men
they admit TO their friendship.
IF man is good looking, dashing
and gay, and ready to spend money,
the average girl accepts him his
| face value.
She tells him her secrets; allows him
many privileges; enters into correspOn-
dence with him.
After a months acquaintance she is
ready to marry him.
Trusts Her Future to Him.
| She trusts her precious future to the
| hands of a man she knows absolutely
nothing about.
And her mother sits complacently by
and congratulates 4lerself that her girl
is mag a good match
What is a good match?
Is it money, and position; or is it the
care and love and protection, which
| only a good and kind man can give a
| woman?
Do you think you would be happy
with the type of man who winks when
a woman turns her back?
Do you think a man, of that type,
capable of nice feeling? And yet on
the surface, this man appears very de-
sirable; he is good looking, rich and
very entertaining.
But it is the hours that you spend,
alone with a man, that must be reck
oned with.
To marry a man whom you thought
a model of kindliness and chivalry, and
then to find him sordid, rough and
coarse minded, would mean desperate
establishment for any pure-minded
woman.
The wives can only regret, but the
girls can beware.
Know ALE About Your Man.
Don't marry a man until you know
something about him. When he is
counting his manner toward you may
be above reproach; but how about his
manner toward other women?
How does he treat old people? How
does he speak of them?
