TO PLEASE IhE lsADlEo-
A youth writes me that he greatly de-
sires 20 bc riot with the ladies ana ashs
me 20 tell him some Of the things tha'
girls like in man.
Well. first. girl likes man TO ne hiIe
looking. This does not mean that nI
must have a Greek profile, and amprosla'
curls, or display any other marx oi Se"
blsnce to young Apollo. A. Lo.,,t,
s,uff in man. Il ehv consider they have
monopoly on that line, and If there is any
sdmiring 10 bc done they want the man !
,o hand II to them. They don't want TO |
have to he telling any male creature wna'
wonderful ewes he's got. Besides, hVlng
n,ctnre man holds the worlds record for
self conceit and he makes a hit with no
living human being but himself.
