When she is five and thirty she is

All thoughts, all passions. all delights.
Whatever stirs the mortal frame,
All are but ministers Of love
And feed his sacred flame.
There are men who do not know
what to make Of 1t when they get q
sweetheart who does not object to
seeing them talk and laugh with pref
ty girls. The average man is used to
the ways of most girls. Quite as soon
as he begins paying attention to one
she gets the notion that he belongs to
her and should not look at any one
else. She would build wall around
him, if she could, to keep others from
admiring him. He has only to men
ton that this girl has fine eyes. or
that one 1ne form, to arouse her ire
and to betray her jealousy. -
BY this token he is sure of her. He
settles it in his mind that she is ready
to accept him quite as soon as he pops
the question. Manlike, being sure OF
her, he is in no hurry to declare him.
self. If they have a misunderstanding
and part, he finds the next girl whom
he begins to beau about fashioned
after the same pattern. So on down
the long list of girls.
When he meets young woman who
is totally different from all the rest he
cannot understand her. He woos her,
with ardor, but does not seem able to
melt her icy reserve. He who has
been used to throwing his arms
around other girls without asking by
your leave" is seized with a tit OF
timidity at the impulse which comes
to him to take the icy maiden's hand
in his. When he makes his plea OF
love, she is one of the sort who do not
fall into his arms whispering: my
heart is yours. have loved you all
along! When is the marriage to take
placer" Instead, the reserved maiden
looks at him sweetly, murmuring: I
must take time to think It over"
Even after she has given her con-
sent that he may ask her father and
mother and has gained their approval,
he often finds himself doubling wheth-
or he will be able to win the girls
heart or not. If he could awaken
even slight spark OF Jealousy In the
girls heart he would be sure OF her,
but this he is unable to do. He fingers
In the vestibule, just as he has
fingered with other girls. He does not
dare shock her by offering to caress
her. He who has been an adept at
snatching kiss on such an occasion
from all-too-willing lips stands
abashed before the maiden who Is all
sweetness, yet is clothed with a GER
tain dignity which raises a barrier
over which familiarity on his part
would not dare attempt to cross.
She is by no means prude. The
merry, dancing light In her eyes dis
proves that suspicion at once. She
he's no fear of any girl friend cutting
her out. She sensibly Declares. If
he likes any other girl better than he
does me, would rather help him
than hinder him from getting the one
who can make him happiest." He
marries the reserved sweetheart. He
is one of the men not troubled by
Jealous wife. He lives to learn that
jealousy is no proof Of love. Men and
women make the mistake OF their.
