We've met a lot of chaps who are commonly adverted to as “born lead- ers of men,” and we've found that the great majority of them are just bulliés with a certain veneer. We often wonder what little nine- year-old girl 1s the chirographer of the scrawling, unformed, ditficult-to- ‘and often misspelled notes that appear on the screens im the photo~ plays. Maybe we're all wrong, but we never see a short husband with a tall wife that don't wonder just how many times In the course of their married life she called him an insignificant little shrimp. Iv's surprising how the woman you've been supposing to be stately can become just stodgy by the mere process of stepping out of her high- heeled shoes. Bome of us entertain the naive idea that, after hectoring and bullyrag- ging our wives all over the place about a month at a stretch, we can square the whole thing up by being “ina” to them for abowt an hour and a half.

I don't think it would take the average man very long to decide which picture He would prefer. It's all very well to quote the oid saying about the way to a man’s heart being through his stomach be it from me to declare its fallacy!—but experl- ence (my own, as well as other people's) has taught me that if a woman wants to keep a min atten- tive she must please his eye as well as his stomach, It is not always the busiest woman, kimono habit, For we af know that order, More often it is the woman who doeg little besides amuse herself, pretty hor breakfast table or to be worn outside the seclusion of one's own bedroom. vainer th @ man’s | E20 Ite the woman who meneg than she on a 2 =thmnnleerne women, that the way to rt te through his stomach, bas more pend whe its birth.
