the Right
1t was different back in the dim far
past, woman didn't have the OPP
portunity of stepping out and pick
ing the man of her choice, he always
did the choosing of his helpmeet and
not always very gently either. AS
we remember it, the male of the
species was wont to take his club
with him when he went a-Wooing,
and the approved method in those
days was to tap the loved one on the
head, not viciously, but friendly like,
and while she slept peacefully, to
drag her off to his home, there to live
happily ever after.
Fe They Like 1t
| And the nice part Of such court
ship was that the women always
liked it. There was something in the
way w0man's man welded his club
that always brought forth her I'M
dying love and admiration. And
friend husbands club, back in the
corner of their comfy cave was a sure
] method of keeping the missus home.
| AS the years went by, the woman
became little more educated, they
knew little more and began to ex-
ercise some of their knowledge in Sc
curing their man. If cave man
had a well furnished cave, plenty
of cooking utensils and all the mod
ern cOnveniences, you can be sure he
did't remain single very long. Some
fair dame would look him and his
home over very carefully and some
bright cheerful day the man and wo-
man would meet on an unfrequented
path, accidentally of course, and if he
didn't gently drop his club on her
shining tresses, she would bump it
against her head anyway fall to the
ground and wait for him to drag her
off. He had to do it too, because in
those days when a woman's head met
the club of man, they were. just as
good as married.
Still Progressing
With the ages slipping by we find
the woman still progressing, but
wisely, so that the man always thinks
he is the one that's doing the wooing,
but he isn't, she has been looking
him over and if his prospects are
good, If he acts as tho he would take
care Of her properly, you can bet a
hat that some day she will happen to
be in his arms just as mother comes
in the room and custom DEGREES they
have to announce the, engagement
Its a survival of those ancient days.
One of the first things wise girl
does when she is looking over a pro-
spective husband is to inquire into
his life insurance ideas. If he al
ready carries a policy, she doesn't
hesitate long and if he doesn't she
tried to impress the desirability of it
on his mind. That is, the wise girls
do.
Life Insurance
Back in 1916 Mr.. Trego devoted
some space to discussion of life
insurance and it well worth reprint
ing. Life insurance" he said gen
erall y looks like a joke to those just
arriving at maturity, for they think
they are going to live forever and be
rich. AS matter Of fact, very few |
live that long and some people admit |
they are poor. The model husband |
carries life insurance, for he reasons |
that if he keeps him hustling hard |
and fast to support Nora and the |
baby while he is alive and we'll, it |
will be rather hard lines for them
whef he is sick and dead. Sickness
and death are hard enough any time |
but If there comes with it, stopping |
of income and increased expenses |
and new bills, insurance money is |
like salve on wound Therefore |
the thoughtful fellow takes out life |
isurance. If he is the right kind to
make a good husband he takes out
his insurance policy when he is about
twenty years old, while he can get |
it at a low rate. When he marries
he has the policy made over to his
wife and still has the low rate for
the rest of his life" Mr.. Trego then
went on to tell about young couple
who were married and carried no
life insurance. The husband died
and left the young wife with three
children and absolutely destitute. He
told of the wife, having to practic-
ally beg to make a living and then
went on to say, Nov grille, how
would you like to be that wife. This
is leap year and you might propose
TO just such man. 1t is said there
Is goose for every gander or about
that proportion, and the country has
q great many ganders running at
large. 1t remains to be seen whether
you act the goose. What we want to
suggest is that if you are studying
character in men, you can get good
lip by finding out whether or not
he fellow carries life insurance If
he does, it adds to his credit, If he
loes not, then this is corking good
line for him to hunt for an insurance
