.Strictly upenklng this Is perhaps Rne
beauty talk and yet what la more
beautiful to the average woman than
man who loves her and a home of

j without an ounce of brain came
I along and he quickly Jumped to his
' feet and followed her. "I suppose
jit was her doll baby face!" she
going out to dances, dinners and
theatres like others.
"It Isn't that I want anything
or aerlous" she faltered, flushing
painfully and looking around, to be
sure that no one overheard her. "1
mean, I don't expect every man 1
meet to propose to me, but I certain
ly would like to have a good time
like other girls," and she ended her
statement In an ngony of solf con
eciousness.
It Is pretty hard to explain to
wuch a girl the secret of charm and
how unfair it is, because some girl
babies have It even in the cradle and
others grow to womanhood without

Just because I liked Mary and wanted
to see her If possible happy In a
home of he own, I made up my mind
to watch her and see vhat was wrong

And the first thing I noticed winch
made me frown, was that she was so
painfully anxious to please. When a
man addressed a careless remark to
her. Instead of answering it in kind

ot so sure of that, I re

such n good listener."
And sure enough I overheard the
same man saying to a fluffy girl n
trifle later. "I don't know wha?
there Is about you, but I sure like to
talk to you. You somehow 'est me."
The fluffy one had not exerted her
self to the extent of saying a single
word. She Just sat there and cooed
at the proper Intervals and looker!
interested while the man sat en
chanted at her side and talked about
himself for one solid hour. What
did she care? He was so pleased
with himself, and as a consequence
.with her, that he promptly Invite-'
her to dinner and a show, so as 1
pointed out to Mary her listening
was well worth while.
But one day Mary did get a beau'
He actually Invited her to dinner
and she behaved her prettiest. Then
he told her he was obliged to g'
away on a business trip but he would
ring her up on his return. And Just
because he did not ring her up on the
minute of the first day, what do you
suppose Mary did? She rang him up
yes. on a busy morning and she
kept him ten minutes at the phono
And afterward she quarrelled with1
him and argued with him, and be
came offended at things he said, and
wrote him long letters (unpardon
able crime) so that in the end he had
the dickens of a time getting rid of
her.
After he had made his escape h
told a chum that he didn't want any
thing to do with any girl who was in
experienced again, lly that he did
not mean anything that was deep
and devilish, but merely t hat In
wanted a girl who wns a good sport
and was used to masculine ways ol
thinking and talking.
I think that is the main trouble
with Mary and her kind. They can
only nee the world from their own
narrow view point. They cannot In
terest men because they are too st 1
flsh and self centered. They won't
get out of their minda long enough
to study them, to discover that they
are different, that while they have
their sensitive streaks wnd their
peculiarities and things they like and
dislike Just as much as women, these
are entirely dissimilar.
As Mary grows older she will de
velop more primmess nnd more p- -culUritiea
all self centered people
do. She will become catty also,
blaming others instead of herself for
her lack of popularity, Mary's men-
make her loosen up, stop ihniklng
of h?rsMf and stop broollng vcr th-
ffect she Is creating she might even
now become attractive and graceful.
But as It stands Mary Is not pleasing
to men. sand bids fair to spend ir
life unbeloved and unsoueht been"-
she Is not a good playmate and a
good listener, and because she Is so
'ntent on nailing every man she sees
that she Ignores the fact that a b't
of graceful laughing Indifference Is
the bsi bflit in the world to attra?'

A. M. Balrd. one of th bus'e'-t
office men In Lincoln, has returned
from a trip to Denver, Lynns. Steal
ing, Sidney, Alliance and Broken
Bow, during which he traveled In an
office car and made night stops that
he might Inspect closely the ral'.roai
with which he had had much to do
since the main line entered Denver
In the early eighties. .After con
struction work in the early days he
took a place in the office of T. E.
Calvert, then general superin'en 'e
of all lines west, and since that tine
has had a great deal to do with con
struction and more to do with op' ra
tion. It had been years since he had
Inspected the lines of the road in the
west and he found surprises in plenty-
waiting him on this trip. The re
markable thing to Mr. Dnird was the
growing crops in the country that
years ago he had looked upon as a
desert. What he saw around Sterl
ing and Sidney and even farther
north Indicated that even a desert
can be made to produce. In the
vicinity of Broken Bow he saw the
best corn tha the has seen anywhere
in Nebraska. He comes back re
freshed, but convinced that he and
every other Burlington man will
have to do extra duty If the crops
growing along the Burlington lines
are moved within the yenr. Slate
