HIDING ADMIRATION
 FOR A MAN
Treasure love though ready Still ato live without.
 In your fondest trust keep Just one thread of doubt

It is a, sweet trait of feminine mod esty for a woman to strive to keep from a, man the knowledge that he has awakened interest in her heart if he has not inviteI it.. Let man once become aware that Q particular wo- mans eyes brighten at his approach or that she is speaking enthusiastically of him to their mutual friends and she will never have the pleasure of a bow or chat with him on the street if he catches sight of her first He would dodge around the first corner, walk a dozen blocks out of his way to escape meeting her. No dragnet could be procured to draw him to the home of an acquaintance for dinner if the casual word was dropped that she had also been invited.
 He cannot help it. It is the per verseness of mans nature to make a wry face at the peach ready to fall into his mouth and long for the one indisputab1y beyond his reach. Un- consciously, the woman who shows openly her admiration for him awak- ems his antagonism. He is bound to fight shy of her on general principles, unless she be a widow, very young and very pretty. In that case, her careless admiration is incense to him, for he feels very confident that she would not remain a widow long if some score or more admirers could have their way about it. But, then, attractive widows are in a. class by themselves and in the main are be- yond the pale of this little talk, the clever ones being too canny to let a ] man know he is admired or that his society is undu1y appreciated. If they set their cap for a second heart mate,
 he, above all others, never discovers 1 that fact.
 ] Many women have the mistaken no- ton that they might with propriety crIT hos c711 'l ment to assure him that his calls were not unwelcone. It is not pleasant tc shatter such beautiful thought by jostling it with a hard fact. The truth lis that no man living is too bashful
 to woo, and right earnestly and eager fly at that when he meets the woman who appeals to him..
 It is so1lewhat of a surprise to q man who thinks he is wanted by g
 host of women to find one who Is ap-
 parent1y indifferent to him. He pur-
 sues her as a stimulus to his self. I power to attract. Despite all the new. fangled notions about women neeting
 men half way their own ground modest young women will never usurE .l the mans prerogative to go forth and find a mate, woo and win.
 Il If a man shows that he is interested by desiring to be where she is, send
 ing her often a flower, a book or some
 trif1e to let her know she has beer constantly in his thoughts, her pleas ant greeting when they meet, the Ian guage of the eyes, so subtle, so sweet
 which never passes the lips, can in form him, past all dIoubting that be- ling a woman she is therefore to bt loved and therefore to be won.
 Modesty in a woman is the golder key which opens the door of a mans heart. BoIdness pushes it to with {

 SUFFRAGE NEWS
(Mrs. Edward Porritt, aartford)

(Mrs. Edward Porritt, Hartford)
 Two of the eight county suffrage conventions have now been held and both were attended with remarkable success The first-that of last Sat urday in New Haven, though held under disadvantages as regards weather, was very largely attended. Indeed the numbers far exceed what had been expected by the promoters of the convention, and it was a little difficult to accomodate all the women. It was such the same with the Hart ford county convention which was held on Thursday at Suffrage Head- quarters in Hartford. The interest of the rank and file of the Suffragists far exceeded expectations and besides the delegates and representative suf- tragists from each of the towns there were many visitors who came in an | unofficial capacity to hear the reports | and to gather hinLs for the better carrying on of suffrage work.
 Between now and next November | will be a busy time for all Suffra- gists and each one of the six county conventions which are yet to be held the zeal of the workers. The Fairfield ECounty convention which was at first set for June 23rd has been post poned to June 18th, and the New Lon don convention which was fixed for July 18th is not to be held until | August lh0Se CnanSGS nave been made largely to extend the conventions over a greater length of time ,and so increase the benefit to be derived from them.
 The Connecticut delegates who at- tended the suffrage conventions and iconferences in Chicago and who marched in the great parade of June
 7th have now all returned to their homes. They are enthusiastic in their
 praise of. the Chairman of the Con- necticut delegation, Mrs. Ernest Seton Thompson of Greenwich, who \ marched through rain and storm al
 the head of the Connecticut division
 bearing the Connecticut ssign. These delegates say that there was no ex- taggeration in the newspaper accounts
 of the storm that had to be encoun- tered by the paraders. In fact the whole story was scarcely told; fo1
 along great lengths of Michigan aven- ue which were -traversed by the par
 aders the storm swept so fiercely and Erelentlessly than ot a single spectator
 dared to face it. The avenue was swept clean except for the policemen
 who were on duty and the paraders who heroicalIy clung to their banner:
 and slogans and marched in the teetf
 of the gale right to the Coliseum
 1 Undoubtedly this courage of the
 paraders have som etI1inge to do witt
 form of a national recognition of thu
 the insertion in the Republican plat form of a national recognition of Stht
 just; ce of votes for women.
