HOW To WIN A WOMAN'S HEART

understood and when a man can
make one believe that he hangs on
her utterances as II she was sibyl,
it's all over with her. She's his for
the asking.
Doctors and preachers are the only
men who ever pay women the compli-
ment of being interested in their suls
instead of their looks and that is
why doctor, or a preacher, has only
to whistle to q woman to have her
get up and follow.
Yet in trying to win a girls heart
be devoted, but not slavish. Make
her feel that while your life's happi~
nessswill be wrecked il you don't get
her, you will still have strength
enough TO exist without her Women
are still primitive creatures. and they
love a man who asserts a certain mas
terry over them. Also there is some
thing in the feminine temperament
that prompts them to kick the man
who groyels at their feet.
This does not mean that a man shall
attempt to dictate to a girl what she
shall do, or with whom she shall 60.
This is as fatal as trying to put a
bride on a spirited colt before II is

stronger will and a stronger hand
than hers is guiding her destiny is
half won.
A good deal is to be said in favor OF
the constant, faithful devotion that
continually surrounds a woman with
evidence OF care and tenderness, but
this system OF winning a womans
heart is most effective when played
within strict limitations.
