There is a charming frankness about
the word capture" that cannot fail
to linger in the mind of all those who
are interested In the subject of leap
year.
In this clever letter the writer scores
st measures.
1T is much eas er to catch flies with
molasses than with vinegar" she
points out.
There are several subtle touches in
the letter that are worth noting. For
instance, she says tina. she would ex-
cuse herself and retire to the kitchen
where mother has coffee prepared n
cake cut
But read the entire letter:
To the Leap Year Girl Editor, Evening
Star:
Well, girls, as no doubt we are all
interested in capturing a life partner
during leap year, perhaps l might offer
a few suggestions. First of all, 1 do
not advise strenuous measures, as you
know 1t is much easier to catch flies
with molasses than with vinegar.
l would invite John to call Sunday
evening and meet him at the door
dressed as daintily and neatly as pos
sible. greet him cordially, hang his
overcoat and hat on the hall rack and
usher him into the parlor, but be sure
no trace of lust is visible, as his eyes
are apt to be very Keen in this respect.
Have the gas burning moderately low
and the sofa drawn up neal the fire, sit
beside him for about two hours, while
he tells all his little and adj
ventures, very interesting to himself. no
doubt. Be careful not to look bored or
grow sleepy. as either would be fatal
at this point. During this time IL would
be best to keep silence, except for a bit
of delicate flattery now and then.
Next, l would excuse myself for a few
minutes. and retire to the kitchen.
where mother has coffee prepared and
cake cut. I would linger here some
time, while mother steps into the parlor
and tells him what a good dutiful. con-
siderate daughter I am. Bride her to
do this, II necessary, as It is sure to be
a strong point In your favor. Next,
bring in the coffee mot vine, remem-
ber) and cake. After he has consumed
three cup5 of coffee and several pieces
of cake. light his cigar and allow him
to smoke ten minutes in uninterrupted
bliss. then take his hand in yours and
