The Secret Of Popularity

n YOUNG girl, who desires to be
n admired and liked, writes to me
n and asks if can tell her how to
become one of those fortunate ones who
are always welcome and at whose com
ing every eye brighteus and every lip
takes on a smile.
I can not answer my correspondent s
question TO the letter The secret of
popularity is one of those Dundreary
things that no fellow can find out. Some
people attract us. and others repel us
without ever being able to give any
reason for it. There are scapegraces
that We adore, and saints that we hate
at sight. There are people with no pre-
tensions to brilliancy Of whose society
we can never get enough, and learned
individuals who bore us stiff. and yet
by every law of logic we should prefer
the company of the more intelligent
Only we don't.
Undoubtedly that Elusive quality that
we call personal magnetism has a great
deal TO do with an individuals popular
ity. Some people have a charm Of per-
Sonality that draws US to them just as
rresisubly as the magnet draws the
needle. This IS a gift Of nature, Fortu-
nate, indeed, are those who possess it.
but those who have not been so blessed
as to be endowed with it can cultivate
other qualities that make very good
substitute.
My first piece of advice to the girl
who wants to be popular, is to make
cast-iron resolution not to talk about
herself. Just take it for d rule, that
has mighty few exceptions, that no
human being on earth, outside of your
mother wants to hear all the details Of
your humble existence. When people
