Then my friend went on to
tell of q young woman of her
acquaintance who goes about
with other men the moment her
fiance's back Is turned and of
another young woman she knows
who married fine young man a
year ago and is now tired of him
and seeking divorce.
OF course, men do not always
overlook the incest girls in favor
OF those least qualified for home
making and marriage. You know

who are we'll liked and enjoy
their full share of popularity, or

will remain married.
But just the same 1t happens
too often that dumb girls and
gold-digging girls and heartless
little flirts receive more attention
than they know what to do with,
and marry well, early in life. while

home of her own-may reach
middle age without hearing man
say, Il love you"
Why should this be? What
do these girls of character and
sincerity lack which causes men
to pass them by?
Some women like the fun Of
winning men. but care little for
the responsibilities of love and
marriage. Once they are sure of
a man, their interest wanes.
They often understand how to get
acquainted with and attract men
much more quickly than do more
reserved, less confident women,
hence they win husbands, but fail
as wives.
TRY to think of young men as
friends and pals and brothers,
rather than heaus and sweet
hearts, then you will get on with
them more comfortably and form
pleasanter friendships.
And don't feel superior, girls!
Maybe In their late teens and
early 2Os boys seem bit empty
headed and clumsy to you, com,
pared with your serious. stu
dious self. But If they have
fallen behind you mentally now
they are likely to catch up

you before they are 35.
Some girls naturally have the
gift of attractiveness. They
really don't have to try; One

she could win any boy she
wanted, not because she dressed
well or came of a rich family,
but because she was little
prettier than most OF the other
girls and a little more indepen-

alyze their own power OF attrac-
ton.
If, however, you are one OF
the girls who would like more
love and friendship, more ro-
n1ance-if you wish very much
to find Mr. Right. and start a
home and family when the time
comes-then you cannot do bet

your fate.
Not every girl can be beautiful,
witty, we'll dressed. although it
is worth your while to be as
dainty, as we'll groomed, as
smartly dressed and pretty as
YOU can be. But you can, If you
will, make yourself lovable. And
II is pleasantness and sweetness,
kindliness and gentleness, inter-
est and companionship that men
want from girls. They don't espe-
cially care to be dazzled or
eclipsed. instructed or preached
at-they like friendliness, not too
serious-and romance!
Draw out your friends. listen
to them. appreciate them. be
gentle and sympathetic Instead OF
doing all the talking.
You may be sure that winning
ways will win for you your king
dom of friendships and romance.
