THE MITTEN CODE
Brief Rules For the Guidance of
Unfavored Suitors
WHAT TO DO WHEN REJECTED
Always Try to Parry the Blow With a
Ready Reply Because Staring In Re
proachful Silence Gives the Lady a
Chance to Change Her Mind
Incrwlible as it may soem proposals
of rnnrriiipe are sometimes refused
usually because the lady thinks she
knows better
To comport ones self fittingly when
rejected is no oasy matter The young
begiuuur Is advised to give some
thought to his next move in the event
of his proposal being declined To
vtand staring In reproachful silence
uisplays a lack of savior falre and
incidentally gives the lady a chance to
change her mind
The really nice young man when re
jected inclines to gloom The average
young man takes up an attitude of
sprigiitliness To display relief when
rejected may not seem in the best
taste but if a girl has refused you
that is sufficient evidence that she has
no taste at all
Let us consider the method of the
really nice young man He hints at a
broken heart a picturesque but im
probable happening He asks if there
is no hope Always he speaks in low
tone There Is the authority of the
hist fictiou for this Apparently he
never shouts his query from the door
steps as he is departing He men
tions suicide In a uoncommital way
and eventually takes his leave with
one last fond lingering look at ber
One can only hope he does not spoil
the dramatic value of his exit by trip
ping over the doormaL
So much for the really nice young
num The average young man has a
variety of methods for keeping his end
up in the event of being rejected He
imparts an air of levity to the proceed
ings which must be distinctly Irritating
wheu one is expecting time honored
references to fractured hearts aud
blighted hopes
Copying the average young man you
may therefore when rejected laugh
heartily aud then remark
Well but joking apart Isnt the
weather beautiful
There is something about this formu
la which prevents the waste of any
emotion except annoyance
Another gambit in taking refusals is
to smile with satisfaction and say the
simple words
I win
While the damsel is puzzling out
what the words may mean you can ef
fect your ewape
In the event of an emphatic refusal
you can always ask smilingly
How did you guess 1 was jollying
An effective way to prevent a lady
promising to be a sister to you Is to
get there first by promising to be a son
to her and you can follow it up by
saying
Oh well I must be getting along
Ive got another call to make
There is a subtlety about this remark
which enables you to take your leave
quite easily
Always try however to be ready to
say something at once If after her
No you think you have been silent
overlong assume a puzzled look and
say
Let me see what were we talking
about
Should the girl give reasons for re
fusing you remark
Yes thats just what Jane Jones
said last month when I proposed to
her
It may happen that the lady answers
your proposal thus
No Harold I can never be yours
I am affianced to auotber
The best thing to do to avoid ex
posure of your disappointment is to es
claim
Yes I knew that when I asked
you
Another formula when rejected lies
in taking a list of names from your
pocket consulting it and remarking
Youre Miss Susan Smith arent
you
Then you put a tick against the
name sigh relievedly and take your
leave
If you have come primed to say
Thank you Harriet you have made
me the happiest man in all the world
in answer to ber acceptance there is
no reason why you shouldnt say it in
reply to her refusal
In the event of receiving a refusal
by letter pretend that you did not get
it This has a disquieting effecL Or
if you want to get even wait till she
questions you about it and then say
with every sympton of glad relief
Oh that letter was from you was
It 1 couldnt quite make out the sig
nature and I thought it was from
borne one else on a similar matter
A sportive remark Is permissible
sometimes when one is refused with
lofty contempt
Thats ail right old girl Truth is
I only asked you because I was feeling
a bit sorry for you
The main point is to be ready witted
enough to keep your bat and stick in
your hand Do not leave the house
whistling though It prevents you
from exhibiting an amused smile when
she peeps at you from behind the
front room curtains
With luck and practice you will be
able to take a refusal of marriage
quite well Dont propose merely for
practice however Your luck may not
bold out London Opinion

BAILEES START
How the Texas Statesman Secured
His First Nomination
Whose name is going to be at the
head of the next Democratic presi
dential ticket While of course Its a
little early to answer that question
United States Senator Joseph W Bai
ley is having quite a boom In that di
rection and in some quarters It Is con
fidently predicted that he will be the
lucky candidate Consequently the
Texas statesman is much In the lime
light and some good stories are being
told of his career It Is said that this
is how he got his start in politics
Mr Bailey was a struggling young
lawyer In the new section into which
he had moved Time had rolled
around to nominate a Democratic can
didate for congress The day of the
convention had been set It was eon
ceded that a certain old man in con
gress would be given the nomination
Having much leisure and but little
money he thought he would walk to
the convention After he had been on
the road for some time a farmer drove

up lehind him Wanter git in an
ride he said to the young lawyer and
Bailey accepted gladly
Going to the couventon asked
Bailey after awhile Yep said the
farmer Ever hear of a young lawyer
named Bailey round here asked Bai
ley Noper said the farmer Good
speaker and bright fellow I under
stand suggested Bailey Spose so
said the farmer Yes continued
Bailey and he will be over there to
day and I tell you what well do
Well call on him to make a speech
You see all your friends tell them
about Bailey and well call on him
The farmer said all right No more
was said about the matter until there
was a lapse in the convention during
the preliminary movements of the
body Suddenly the old farmer got up
and suggested that the convention hear
from Mr Bailey a risin young law
yer of these diggins he said an a
feller who talks like puttin out tin
Bailey Bailey Bailey more than
a dozen yells went up and Bailey
came forth Joe Bailey made one of
the hottest speeches of his life and
the upshot of the whole thing was that
the risin young lawyer of these dig
gins got the nomination for congress
and is now Senator Bailey
