ceited. They pose. They strut. They
have to he continually flattered, and this
gets upon woman's nerves. If there's
to be any bouquet throwing, she feels
that it's the man, who has the stronger
arm and the better arm, who ought to
hurl the nosegays, and 1t makes her mad
clear through when she has to do 1t.
Therefore, she does not qualify for tho
Job with any great enthusiasm.
Give her every time the homely man
who will talk about her eyes, instead Of
expecting her TO sing sonnets to his; who
will praise the shape Of her nose and
tell her that her mouth is Cupldrs bow,
instead OF sitting up and angling for a
compliment about his looks until, in
sheer humanity. she Ia bound to pass him
one, as one throws bone TO hungry
dog.
stu another reason why handsome men
do not fascinate women is because the
extremely good looking man is nearly
always dull and stupid. Old Dame
Nature deals out the cards with more
even hand than we give her credit for,
and when she spends an extra amount in
adjoining the outside OF an individuals
head. she nearly always skimps lot on
what she puts inside of II. This Is true
of women as well as men. but while
beauty in woman is enough to satisfy
men, 1t doesn't fill the bill with women.
A man win fall in love with pretty
fool and apparently adore her to the end
of the chapter, without ever wearying
her, but no man alive was ever handsome
enough TO keep a woman thrilled after
she found that his conversation was
barren OF interest and palled upon her.
The fascination OF the ugly man is, In
the first place. that knowing he has moth.
Ing In his looks to appeal to a woman he
studies her moods and lenses and learns
to play upon her as upon an instrument
fashioned TO her hand. He learns thai
subtle art OF incense burning. so that he
intoxicates her. without her knowing It

Moreover, the homely man. having tC
