The Art of Being Liked

Woul' like TO be POPULAR Would

people at whose coming every eye
brightens, every lip curls into a smile,
every hand goes spontaneously out in
friendship?
OF course you would. The real secret,
universal desire Of the human heart is
FOR popularity, and IL some good fairy
should offer us our greatest wish we
should ask for the power to win the ad-
miration OF our fellow creatures
But. you say, you are not one of the
lucky few who are born With a Certifi-
cate to the Lodge of Goodfellowshlp in
their mouths, so to speak. Further, you
opine that the art of being a heart
snnasher is one that comes by nature
and not by grace. and that popularity s
middle name is really personal magnet
ism, which the gods give, or withhold.
and for whose possession or lack the in
dividual is in no wise responsible.
To a degree this is true. Why some
people draw to them every one with whom
they come in contact can no more be
explained than why the magnet attracts

possessed Of an almost hypnotic power
over us, whom we like in spite of our
selves, and often against our better judg-
ment, They have a way with them that
we find 1t impossible TO resist, even
though we may aisapprove of them to
the highest degree.
These strangely gifted mortals are.
however, in a very small minority. They
are almost as scarce as hens teeth, and
for the most OF Dur acquaintance we
could assign very clear reason as to
why we Hike or dislike them.
In this, II seems to me, the tidinge Of
great JOY, for It shows that the secret
OF popularity is not in the middle OF the
Sphinx, as many suppose, but is simply
an everyday art at which even the most
bungling OF us may become reasonably
expert IL we devote a little intelligent
