it annoys him to have a woman in the case.'
 Now, with system, it is smooth sail- ing; its first principle is not to betray de- cided opinions; if woman has an opinion it must be made to appear to come from the man. It is the woman's part to be clinging, effeminate, dainty, purring, soft, like clay in the potters hands"
 Presently he answered me, and oh! how loved what he said:
 'It is better to be dangerous than dull, f" he smiled, as we slipped our tea and con- tinued our conversation.
 Did it ever occur to you that the du!lest women are the most dangerous?" asked. If a woman is pretty, or 'artis- tic in her makeup, understands all the intricate points and herself, the dulleI she is the sharper she is, as it were

to the age when that sort appeal toI me; I cont care anything about the' flashy, dashy debonnair men who make love beautifully and selfishly, like the william in a melodrama; what woman wants man with dancing master man. ners for sweetheart of a husband? Certainly not widow; she knows what one of those "Appollo Bella-donna" kind mean; taking up all the look ing glass having to be waited on like debutante; having to flatter and ca jole and pet him into being half way decent to you.
 "A woman is a fragile sort of crea-. tGre and loves to be humored herself.,, l observed as we resumed our conver-i sation. "She likes to be petted bit, and if man doesn't know how to do these things-hasn't that sort of na- ture to begin with-it's precious hard for him to cultivate 1t; of course 1t can be done-like music or Christian Science, but most of that type are too self-absorbed to cultivate it if they could.''
 "Isn't that one of those mushy sort of men, a kind of 'tied-t -to-his- -mother's- apron strings fellow?' asked my vis- avis interestedly.
 Certainly not I protested. 'Rich- ard the Third was 8 perfectly ador-
 
 have been called---a 'tied-to- -his-moth- er's-apron- strings man, yet the way he said things to Lady Anne, would have turned a less wise feminine head than hers. Women hate milk and water men; what they adore is the-milk -of- human kindness men. It's the feeling that man is gazing at you. instead of through you, trying to decipher the hierog1yphics on your backbone; or. worse still, gazing at his own reflec- tion--or some other woman!''
 What monsters you make HIS out" came the swift, concise protest.
 Not at all," I protested equally as swiftly. "A woman will work her fin gers off to support some old no-ac- count piece of husband who stays out six nights in the week. if only he comes home the seventh night with kind word and 8 tender kiss for her and any old sort of an excuse"
 A burnt child dreads the fire, but a widow can't help wondering if the second fire will be as hot as the first.
 Some widows may fall in love sec- end time, but most of them arc just-s pushed in!
 Most widows prefer one-tenth of g.. husband with an income to whole husband without an income!
