soS fo lot her, feel too E3es9z.x PIE sure of him. The thing that IS difflcui n to get is the thing we value more lnni the thing we can have any day TOT th' taking. And that is true even ol hearts.
 So it is just as well to keep the girl YOU want on the anxious seat little, and make her feel that she will have to sit pretty ii she gets YOU, Never make the mistake or being humble in your love for a woman, or making doormat or yourself for her to trampie on. No girl living can resist kicking 1t. And never, never, never let girl show off before her friends that
 she has got you on the leash, and can put you through your tricks, and make you jump through the hoop. and eat out of her hand, and play dead, at her command. No woman ever really loves the man she doesn't respect, and no woman respects the man she can dominate
 The winning play is to make girl feel that you love her deeply, and romantically, that your love surrounds her, and protects her,
 but that you are too strong man
 to be made the slave or love, or
 become any woman's tame cat.
 The mistake that many man makes when he is courting girl is to be al ways Johnny on the spot. He IS al ways hanging about. He is always underfoot. He sulks when she speaks to another man, and has jealous fits when she dances with others. The re suit is that she gets fed up with him She gets surfeited with his society, and she begins to chafe at the tyranny that he enforces upon her.
 A lover far better serves his purpose if he visits a girl seldom enough to make her anxious to see him instead of so often that she dreads his coming. And. in particular, he is wise if he does not try to monopolize her; if he shows that he is not afraid of comparison with other men, and does not want her to marry him because he has driven all the other men away, but because she prefers him.
 Girls like generous men, but they don't want to marry spendthrltt, and they don't want a man to make them feel as if he thought they could be bought. When you take girl out, do not spend more than you can af- ford. She will have shrewd idea about that, and will despise you as buffer if you are pretending to be better off than you are.
 But spend what you are going to spend freely. Don't haggle over
 pennies. Don't complain of restau-
 rant prices, and the cost of theatre
 tickets. A girl would rather go to
 a ten-cent movie and have glass of soda afterward than to have or
 chestra seats at a theater and res
 taurant supper with a man who
 spends the time discoursing about
 how much it costs.
 But girls aren't hard to please. They are dying for attention, and they eat up love talk, so you cant go astray 1T ''N DOROTHY DIX.
 Dear Miss Dix-I have a girl chun who is most attractive, but she loses out with the boys because she simply talks them to death. She is goOd-lOoking and dances well, and men are attracted to her at first, but she never holds them and they never come back the second time because she talks too much. Is there any way to stop her?
 CURLY LOCKS.
 Answer-You might tell her that
 Mum" is the word that spells fas-
 cination in women, but l am afraid
 it would not do any good. When
 woman is of the babbling-brOOk
 type she runs on and on forever,
 and no matter how much you dam
 her you can never stop her flow
 of speech.
 Her only chance is to find boy who doesn't like to talk, and who is glad to leave the conservation to any one who will undertake the job. Every now and then we meet up with a silent man who is married to a woman who is a human phonograph, and they seem to get along very comfortably together.
 Generally speaking, however, a
 girl can have no more fatal fault
 than a perpetual motion tongue.
 Most men avoid her as they would
 the plague, not only because nOth-
 ing is so boring as to have to listen
 to a monologist but because men
 like to do the talking themselves.
 The chief object of interest in the world to the average man is himself
