Lexington, Miss, Nov. "A mass

claring that 95 per cent or more of the

was a strong, rude thing, for it would
talk impertinently to the mermaids
and threaten to do all kinds of dread
full things.
One day the mermaids went on a
holiday to the beach, where they al
ways tombed their hair twice year.
But while they were gone this big fish,
who was known as Bobo then, came

Filtration" declared a certain ex-
perienced bachelor the other day, lis
a natural gift where the gentler sex is
concerned. They are ali born flirts,
just as the great FooBah of the Mi
dado' was born sneering. Coquetry
and a respect for her appearance dis
plays itself in the smallest baby girl
as soon as she is dressed in short
frocks.
"a tiny tot of six years old, with no
teaching, will drape herself in lace
cnrtain. peeping out from it half shy
" and half in challenge, just as a
young duck will go to water
"We men, on the other hand" he
continued, "have to learn the arts OF
Irritation and attraction, and they are
very seldom acquired by us until we
are of mature age. The boy who is
dressed in his best clothes and his best
manners feels uncomfortable and sen
conscious of the savagery which is
half dormant in him; but little girl
is civilized almost from the moment
of her birth"
Filtration may really be compared
to the rough draft of the artist from
which the masterpiece of love may one
of these days be evolved, rough hur-
ried sketch which no one can under
stand or appreciate but the artists
themselves.
Or 1t may be compared to the pin
ming of few flowers and bunch of
ribbon on a hat, "just to see how it
looks" If it doesn't look all right, it
can be unpinned again, and no harm
is done to the integrity of the hat, or
the freshness of the flowers.
1t Is a sort of sham fight Of love
where the adversaries engage in a
friendly way to test their powers for
real warfare, in which hearts are go
| ing to be wounded, and one or other
of the combatants is to be captured
Speaking on the subject of Irritation
There are many women who seek tt

short-sighted, unsuspecting man for nj

such action is going to annoy som'
other woman excessively. When
woman wants man to love her, |
does not necessarily mean that sh'

that some other woman loves him
This is cynical, yet all too true in
hundred instances.
