EED my counsel, oh, Daughter! H For of Lova there are seven times fiftysevag earietics; but LOVERS are like unto the viande of the popdhyp eestaurants, which differ from one another in name only. Consider the Southern Man and the Northern Man, how rhey flirt! For they proceed by diverse routes, but their goat and their destiny are ever the same. And the kiss of the one differeth from the kiss of the other only as the fragrance of mint from the fragrance of cloves. The Boutherner sigheth: “Lo! I would marry! But no women will HAVE me.” But the Northerner declareth: “Lam not a ‘marrying man.’ And no woman shail GET me!" Yet the ona is ae difficult to lead unto the Altar ae the ofher, And, in the end, BOTH are doomed to follow meekly thither, The Southerner saith: “Behold, 1 am thy slave. Do with meas thou wilt. For 1 am unworthy» of thee.” ~ And the Northerner. saith: ’ “Lo! thou art 80 congenial! Thou art indeed worthy of my devotion.” Yet, I say unto thee, WHICH one will forego a Good Dinner or @ Prise Fight or @ Balt Game for the sake of thy congenial and uplifting soctety? The Southerner protesteth that all women are ANGELS—and therefore too superior to vote. And the Northerner protesteth that ali women are Household Utensite— and therefore too inferior to vote. But the tinkling of laughter in their sleevep {8 as one sound, The one secketh to dazzle thee with flattery and the other sceketh-to dazzle thee with bluff. The one prateeth thine eyese—and the other thy witticisms. And when they are Brought to Bay the Southerner saith: “Be my Queen and mine Inspiration!” And the Northerner saith: oe “Be my Chum and my Life Companion!” But it is their Cook, and their Conacience,and their Hose.Darner which ye shalt become, oh, my Beloved. Verily, verily, I charge thee, judge not a lover by his WORDS. For these are matters of climate and education. But his WAYS are the reat symptoms of his devotion. And in the ways of love the Eskimo differeth not a jot or tiltle from the Hottentot, save that one courteth a woman with fshhooke and the other with glass beads. Selah!
