There arc practically but two ways in which = woman

tRes' this hi G G d 1afy Elective S e9 m the q old i Bachelor aoii p wh sse' bachelor orr
hood was, s. to speak, thrust upon him.
There arc some men who never marry who would have liked to ha
married no n but nw %er e. pf snnoe of irons %s %omg so tbp y ppon Si bmt and s Se has
put all thoughts of marriage ron him during TIE sentimental yea%s-wh4-
he is taking care of his mother and educating his younger brothers and
sisters, and starting them in the world. Sometimes there is a shadowy
romance a love lost through death, o treachery. in the background of a
mans life that explains why he has never married.
These are not really bona nde old bachelors. They are
rotontIoi husbands and as they get around toward sixty the
commence thinking that old age will be dreary with nobody
but a club steward, n a clearinghouse Keeper to DOL after
them and listen to heir mpuom Oh 10 remHu" em " y"
" Then it is that the woman who bangles the idea of a
home before them, and who knows how to make them comfy
when they call and who manifests a sympathetic attitude to
ward their little peculiarHies, "a bring them to the propos.-
ing point if she plays her cards WE'LL and secures to herself
the privilege of nursing their govt for the balance of her lie.
But the case hardened old bachelor. who was born a bachelor is a
harder proposition. The weak spot in his Achilles hel is ta Re becomes
the slave IF habit. lie eats the same thing every day; ne wallis walks uo SAM
the clock. He keeps his brushes at exactly the same angle n ais chiffon
Ter. He visits thu same friends.
This type Of man will go to see a woman for years and
years without ever popping the question, without yer reaiz-
only chance is to wake him up by gong. away. Then ne
finds that she has become a habit and he VIII marry nr
But old bachelogs arc wary old birds and hard to catch.
