.WhatEveryGir
Should Know
By BEATRICE FAIRFAX.

THAT the man who isn't attentive
to his mother will make a neg
lectful husband.
That the man whose ambition It Is
to shine in society will never shine
in business.
That the man who is out OF WORK
at least one third of his time has him
self more than the people or the times
to blame.
That no man may be trusted to
speak respectfully of a girl who has
shown she hasn't a great deal of re-
spect for herself
That no man dreams Of marrying
every woman he tells he loves.
Selfishness.
That selhshness is the predominant
ing element in every mans love, and
unless she is prepared TO accept the
selfishness uncomplainingly, she
should not accept his love.
That the girl who marries a man
to reform him breaks her own heart
instead,
That the ecstatic excitement of the
prepa rations for the wedding are as
brief, compared with the dull monot-
ony of what comes after, as the ride
down hill on a sled is compared with
the long pull up the hill when the
ride is ended. The only difference Is
that the burden the married woman
pulls grows heavier much more rap
idly than the sled.
That when she compares the crit
icisms of her father with the praise
of her lover she does an injustice
to the man in whose love for her
there is no element of selfishness.
That the man who is incapable Of
self denial VIII expect his wife to do
all the self denying that is attend
ant on matrimony.
The Man Who Drinks.
That the man who drinks. be It
ever so little, wastes his time, his
money and his prospects, and some
day will be as prodigal with his wife's
happiness
That the girl who steals another
girls lover more often becomes an
object Of pity than of envy. The lover
who can be stolen will not bring JOY
to any woman.
That some mems attentions ara
truly said to be marked, because they
leave a mark that is never rubbed off.
That for a girl to oppose the con-
ventions is like getting out in deep
water with strong undercurrent and
no lifeguard in sight.

was astonished to see the figure of a
man scantily dressed, descending the
stairs in the early hours of the morn

the porter said, brusquely:

The man turned, and said, in a
dazed way:

There passed many seconds, while
the two men battled in silence, will
warning against will. . In the end,
it was the murderer who triumphed.
Suddenly, Burke dropped the pistol
into his pocket. and lolled back in
his chair. His gaze fell away from
the man confronting him. In the
same instant. the rigidity of Garson's
form relaxed, and he Strengthened
slowly. A tide of secret Joy swept
through him, as he realized his vic
tory. But the outward expression re-
