| a at Mats ol |. by ‘The Presa Publishing Co. (The New York Evening World), T: T state which a man calls hig “single blessedness” is usually noth- Copyright, ing but his single cussedness. An optimist is not one who has been made happy by auspicious circum- stances, but one who has made circumstances auspicious by being happy. imaginary little flames which he so often, mistakes for the fire of true love. The easiest way in the world to deceive @ man, Clarice, ts to tell him the honest truth ; because no living man ever beltev what she says, or that she knows what she means when she eaye tt. Arousing a man's jealousy may stimulate his love temporarily, but the effect alwoys wears off quickly and leaves him just as cold and tired as any other ferm of dope. Truth te 80 muoh stranger than fiction that a man never tells tt to o woman unless he simply con't think up anything else more convinoing. A confirmed bachelor prides himself on his “horse sens ing dut “cat sense,” Dearie, that makes him so hard to catch and to hold. \ — Forty is the “desperate age" at which a discreet woman usually: begins doing the things at whitch she used to be shocked, and a frivolous woman begins to be shocked at the things which she used to do. Don't try to soften a man's heart; love may be a matter of softening of the heart, but judging from the way in which moat men select @ wife mar- | riage {s a matter of softening of the brain. eS Ss Perhaps the reason that the naw knee-waistline ls meeting with favor is Phat since love-making has gone out of fashion it hardly seems worth while to keep your waist in a conventent place any longer.
