a CHARMING and attractive
n unmarried woman who has
reached the place of the old
maids home falling across her
path, frankly adrlits that she would
like to marry and have home and
husband of her own More: She
has her eye on the particular man
that she would like to see sitting
across the table from her.
Unfortunately for her, this won-
an is not one of the women that
attract men, and worse still, the
individual man whom she would
like for husband evinces no de-
sire to have her for a wife, and so
this bachelor maid asks for some
rule for husband catching, with
specific directions about how to
proceed in the case of this especial

Alas. there is no formula for the

The women who are the most sue
cessful fishers of men are a selfish
lot. and never tell what sort of bait
they use. Perhaps they don't know
themselves. Probably they use less
conscious effort to please men than
the women do who never succeed
in pleasing them at all.
Certainly IT is not beauty alone
that attracts man to woman, as
witness the homely married ladies
all about us. Nor is it intelligence,
which is ever a handicap instead of
a help to a woman seeking a hus
band. Wit in a woman is an

a woman had as we'll take her
empty bag and go home
Men don't like blunt women, nor
PLAIN speaking women. nor women
who tell them the truth, or who
argue with them, and you will gen
orally find that every old maid
has one or the other of these char
acteristics. No man expects any
other man to flatter him and tell
him that he's the wisest. and
handsomest. and most wonderful
thing in the world, but he is con-
WINGED that woman's mission in
life is to appreciate what a supe-
rior creature he is, and burn in
cense before him, and the lady who
can do this most disoreetly, most
naturally and with the most real
istic air, as if she meant it, is the
boss head hunter of the husband
tribe.
But there is no hard and fast
rule for capturing a husband. No
woman can run fast enough to
overtake the man who is running
from her. No woman can fatter
or cajole a man into loving her II
she has no attraction for him. In
the end the thing that draws a
man to woman is matter Of
personal magnetism. and that is a
gift that the gods bestow or with
hold at their pleasure.
If woman has done what che
can in a ladylike way to win
mans heart. and he is still indif-
ferent to her. she may well con-
sole herself with the thought that
it is thousand times better to be
an Independent srdngtar than it is
to be an unloved wife Indeed. the
lot Of the old maid in these DAYS
is not one that calls for pity. but
provokes envy.
statisticians who have studied
the marriage and the divorce prob
lens declare that there are propa-
bly, FIVE marriages out of hundred
that are really happy. That there
are ten marriages out of a hundred
that are endurable, and that the
balance are a purgatory on earth
for both. Ones own observation
confirms this statement, and. this
being the case, it is difficult to I'M
derstand why any sensible woman
should embark in the dangerous
sport of husband hunting.
If love comes her way, we'll and

wants him, but. for her own safety.

IN the pictures which accom-
panv this article three steps
in the creation Of a new star
are shown. In the first are seen
two great dead which may
be larger than our sun. but which
have faded and gone out in conse-
quence of the cooling caused by ex-
cessive ase-and these huge black
masses are rushing together with a
combined speed of hundred miles
per second.
But before they crash together a
strange thing happens. You will
observe that each Of them is be-
ginning to glow with light on that
part of its surface which is turned
directly toward the other: and also
that both of them are little drawn
out in form. or elongated, like two
dogs tugging at the same bone.
And in fact, these two dead stars
are pulling against one another. and
both the kindling light and the dis
tortion of shape are due to the
strain Of that tremendous pull,
arising from their mutual attrac-
tion. This seems one Of the stran-
eest conclusions Of science, nut it
is perfectly easy to understand. If
a dark body of immense mass
should approach the earth the lat
ter would not only be torn from its
orbit by the attraction, but its
globular form would be altered,
and it would swell out into an ell
Hpsodial figure. with its longest
diameter in the line of attraction.
The mighty ribs Of the globe would
give way under the strain the solid
rocks would mel5. molten fire would
gush out and in little While the
round earth would be pulled into
the shape of a football and the
pointed ends would blaze with in
conceivable heat
