BoLDNEss HAS NO ATTRACTION
FOR THE DISCERNING.
By r MOORE
DIV Abieal Moore.l

Boldness. which is the basis of the
firt's stock in trade, has no place in
the list Of qualities of a~ttractiveness.
1t is natural that women should desire
to win the admiration of the other sex.
When this desire overrules her COM
mon sense or over steps the bounds of
modesty. she makes a serious mistake.
She. defeats herself At her own game
by too plainly showing her hand.
Aggressiveness is never pleasing.
Even the small child who is bold and
forward. Haunting its p~recocity, is not
SO lovable as the shy mite, nor does
it receive all the sugar plums.
Just what it is that renders woman
attractive has bafflei men eve since
there have been philosophers to study
psychology. but it is accepted that the
self felt rather than seer. C%oquetry
has an excuse in that it is the exercise
of ones best points to make them as
conspicuous as possible. but flirting
is merely a Haunting of ones self in
the face of good taste, conventionality
and womanliness.
This is an age of. practicality. and
men and women are gradually coming
to meet each other on a plane of
other period. 1t is not winking and
blinking and simpering That attracts
men so much nowadays. nor is It pure
ly physical beauty that draws. Beau
ty without grace is the hook without
the bait: beatty without expression

The woman who has both brains

of introduction to John Kinzie, spoke
as follows:

Home erected in the City Of Chicago.
"a very long time ago-over a hundred
years-in 1904, the first Of the Pioneers of
Chicago, John Kinzie. with his family occu-
pied this lot, and his Home here was formany
years the centre Of the Social and Political
life of the northern part of Illinois and the
Wisconsin. The factor Of the u. S. Govt and
the Indian Tribes of the Northwest, and
trusted by both, Mr.. Kinzie was the most in
f1uential man in the Northwest.
"Fort Dearborn built in 1903. and occupied
in 1904. was directly across the river, and at
thet time of the Massacre Of its Garrison in
1872, John Kinzie and his family, owing to the
love and respect felt for him by the Indians,
his life and that Of his family were spared
and afterwards were taken across the lake
in open boats by the Indians.
at is fitting therefore that this spot should
be marked both in remembrance Of the inn
mense services of John Kinzie inthe opening
up for settlement of this region andbecause
on it stood the first White Mans residence
