MRS. SOLOMON SAYS

The Proverbs OF Mrs. Solomon, TO
give wisdom TO the Wife, and 10 the
Flapper a little understanding.
Verify verify. she that despiseth
instruction shall learn by many
heartRches. But she that followeth
my counsel shall travel the path OF
love in a tw1n-six. and arrive at the
House Of Matrimony BEFORE her
years are too many.
Go 10, go to!" cryeth the Cynic.
why shall I study 20 know men?
For this IS an Age OF Independent
Women. and men are but it's adorn-
ments and amusements."
But the Wise Damsel answereth.
Nay. they are ONE OF the most
important sexes! And 10 know their
ways and byways maketh easy the
way TO comfort and a good income!"
Behold. Narcissus gazed into the
water, and the water said, How he
admireth mel"
But that which Narcissus saw was
his OWN reflection.
And every man that gazeth into a
woman,s eyes is another Narcissus.
Wit attracteth the ear and a
bright hat catchest the eye.
But a damsel who can hold her
TONGUE and look inscrutable can
hold any man.
As a matron trying TO look kitten
ish. so is a damsel of thirty that
bcbbeth her hair and weareth a
baby-pink hat.
But the same damsel in clinging
black and a long veil is as SQUAD
trying to appear mature"
10, when other women pursue a
man. be not tempted, but stand
THOU discreetly aside.
And, behold. when he is deeing
from his pursuers. he shall perad-
venture back into THINE arms, for
safety-and consolation.
AS a telephone bell that ringeth
when thou art in the bath-tub. as
an doe-bill in January. as a tea-gown
at a funeral so IS a woman that
seeketh 70 disPel a mans sorrow with
pleasant platitudes and "Oh-cheer-
ups
But she that holdeth his hand and
avoweth that he Is the most abused
man in all the world" Is as anodyne
to the soul.
As sugar in the soup. so is a
danIsel that saith "Bye-bye, Sweetie"
over the telephone But she that
caIIeth a man during business hours
Is as welcome as a bill-collector at
q party
When the model young man we'd
deth the fiirtatious flapper. the Cos
sips shudder and shake their heads
Yet they are doomed TO disappoint-
ment.
For having tasted all the fruits
Of conquest, and the wine Of senti-
ment. she hath no curiosity con-
corning them. she maketh an
IDEAL wife
I charge thee, be not like unto a
slang phrase, which is easy 10 pick
tEp. but hard 10 drop: but like unto
a. good name, which is difficult to &C
cuire. but easy 10 lose. For, no mar
valueth anything from an educa
zion TO a woman's kiss. unless i;
hath cost him a struggle. And in
/ iove. too much certainty is a deadly
/ thing
Then. heed my proverbs and scora
not my words. my Daughter: for. IN

many hard lessons. And a little
/ private tuition from a post graduate
/ IS not to be deSpised.
