Time is n grief that wastes the heart
Like mildew on tulips eyes.
When hope, deferred but to depart.
Loses its smiles, but keeps its sighs.
What has become of the male flirt
of yesterycar. the affable young man
who captured the hearts of all the
marra gcable young women at the SELL
side or mountain resorts, the hand
some youth who kept all the feminine
hearts guessing as to which one of
them was to be his choice ut the end
of the season? He was wont to ac-
company one girl for an early stroll
before breakfast, sit with another on
the sands at noon, read poetry to Il
prettier maid in Il sheltered nook of
the veranda all the cool afternoon,
stroll on the sands in the cleaning
with yet another, take some other girl
for n row on the water in the glorious
moonlight, and dance and tlrt with
every other attractive girl in the ball
room--the first one on the floor and
the last to leave it-far into the wee
sma' hours.
He had way of making each girl
believe that he was in love with her
and her only. But the last week of
the season he had suddenly decampcd.
leaving long trail of signing women
behind him. In each instance. he had
begged for the privilege of correspond
ing. and every girl watched long and
eagerly upon her return home for the
letter that never came.
Quite three-fourths of the disap-
pointed maids and spinsters resolved
on another season at the same place.
hoping for last years beau to return.
These are the women who can never
be made to understand the tactics of
the experienced male tlirt. If one
Drawer than the rest makes bold To
make inquiry as to why he left so sud-
denly last year and if he is to be with
them during the present season, they
usually learn things about him which
crush their fond hopes at one fell
blow.
"Oh, YES. Mr. So and So was called
away suddenly by the illness of one OF
his children" answers the hotel pro-
prietor, affecting not to notice the eA-
preston on his guests face. He Kept
to himself the fact that the handsome
Beau Brummcl had been paid by him
so much per week to make it pleasant
for the young women so that they
might remain the season through.
OF course, it goes without saying
that alI men who are gallant to the
ladies' ore not flirts, but it is just as
well for women to be careful OF thelr
hearts, keeping them well in leash
He who makes love to many is not IN
love with any particular one-uniess
IT may be himself. Look out for a ne"
flirt in last years nest.

It Wasn't a War Tale.

At Il smoker the other evening ref
errnce was made to war stories, when
this little incident wnS recalled by
Congressman Daniel J. 1tiordan of
New York.
Some time since venerable party
stood i'm the midst of II party of friends
describing Il happening with consider
able force.
"They charged like demons. said
he. "Though slaughtered in thousands,
there We're millions To take their
places. and finally we had to retreat.
"Suy," remarked a man who had
just stepped up. 'iS he describing IL
battle that he was in during the Civil
warp
No" was the smiling rejoinder of
the party addressed. HE is telling
how he was chased by mosquitoes
down along Barncgat bay. y."-Ihiladel-

Johnny's Manners.

Where the carefully trained child
learns bad manners is II standing myS-
terry 10 its watchful parents. These
anxious renrers of the young are often
heard propounding the query, but gem
orally without result. Once in while,
however. out of the deep silence comes
an Illuminating answer.
Johnny furnished one just the other
day. He had just finished a particu-
larly toothsome dish of apple pud-
ding. which he ate to the last morsel.
Then. despite the fact that there was
company at the table, he deliberately
picked up his saucer and licked 1t
clean.

Th kind of salad dressing to use de-

the taste of the persons to be served
The simple French dressing Is one that
is most commonly liked and one which
is so easily prepared that it appeals
to the busy housewife. One part of
strong vinegar to three parts oil is
usually sufficiently acid, then with the
addition of salt and red pepper to
taste, when well beaten and allowed
to chill it is ready to serve.
A touch Of garlic or onion is liked
for flavor in many vegetable salads.
This may be obtained by rubbing cut
Glove Of garlic over the inside of the
salad bowl or rubbing piece of bread
which Is placed in the bottom of the
bowl to season the whole dish. This
is called chnpon. This bread may
be in one piece or in small cubes and
served with the salad If liked.
