cHAFING DISH FOR sUIToRs.

Littell McClung in February Lippineotts.
Dearest Lucille do not despair because
leap year has passed. Simply get a
chafing dish and have leap year all the
time. The chafng dish is the most eff
fective weapon ever turned against the
doubling foes of matrimony. 1t pene-
trates, both literally and figuratively
to the spot that Cupid's arrows often
fail to reach. 1t gives courage to the
bashful, resolution to those who hesi-
tate, and determination to the despair
ing. 1t will win a husband when all
other means have failed-coyness, intf-
nation. suggestion, filtration, affection,
coldness, clever mothers, etc.
The girl with chafing dish and. a
knowledge of how to operate 1t Is not
handicapped by the widow. A widow with
chafng dish? Any man is helpless
against such a combination. At almost
any time the chatting dish can be used
with deadly effect. Heavens, no. l don't
mean this in a physical sense, The best
time, however. is some cold, moonlit
night after the theatre If he invites
you to go into a restaurant for oysters
or lobster, coyly decline. Then, with an
unmistakable note in your voice, say
this: 'T've fixed up little treat my
self tonight, George Mamma has kept
the parlor warm, my new chafing dish
is ready, and I'm going to cook some
oysters myself, just for you.'
If he trembles slightly, 1t will be in
anticipation-not in fear. When you
reach home get the oysters quickly
from the back porch or the fire escape.
Whisper coyly, so as not to arouse the
family, and watch how he is being
lhypnotized. Outside>the night is still
or should be. The rays of the moon
give welcome aid. Cupid, behind the
draperies, draws his bow. oysters cook
quickly Soon he is beside you, enjoy
ing the treat of his life. A little later
and the feast is over. The hour is late
and surcharged with romance. He ex-
presses regret at having to leave. He
wishes that such joys could be his
every evening. He hesitates, and you
draw close Still he hesitates. and you
move a little closer. You smile family,
and there is a dreamy look in your eyes
as you turn your face up to him. There
YOU have him. He has gathered you
Into his arms, disarranging your back
hair: his lips are pressed to yours.
The moment he departs. you rush in
awake waiting for you
