Such n Itt I of them a there seem to hot One nenr SUsp2ctod1 for example , while one was n mere snip of a school girl that Il waR goIng to bo such R harl , thing to find conversation. In dreams of future balls and dinner parties that were Indulged In when one should have been studying grammar one always Imaglncd i ' cno's self conversing with tim airy brilliancy cf one of the Iluchoss' blonde and witty heroines or preserving one of those coldly , , fascuUng slrnces that In novels always i , ( ) rove so IrresIstIble to the very best parU In t the Iook , And flow 10 and Iehohl I one of those IJroud silences Is InIulgCI , In one's r partner promptly excuses himself nnl , never comes back for another dance the whole evening . , lng , and rn attempt , at airy badInage gen- eraly results In covering one's head In the cold gray light of the morning after the ball and squirmIng In repentant anguish at the . lilly . vapid s0111 ( that persiflage has repeated - peted to one's self at this unchcerful hour. There once was a girl who carried the story of thIs particular form of wretched- : JHA to n young married friend who though she had the fnest baby In the world , could ; yet remember with perfect ease her own debut four years before. , , , "Yes , Indeed sahl the friend , cheerful . "I remember quite well all the silly things ) I . said. I often cried over them and felt I could never look the people who hal , Istenee to them In the face again. Dut I'l tel you what-things that would sound fearfully silly In n person of m ) age , m fearful wIth a baby and all . are just thought to he r deliciously Innocent and gIrlish In a debu. tante. Pink cheeks and { dimples carry off so much. After all , one must learn to talk . and practice Is the only way 10 learn. One must . make mistakes at first : you wIll Improve every day : don't let yourself be discouraged : : your blunders don't sound half so bad to : others ns they do to you. " After which that . , Ilartcuar ! debutante went away comforted. Thero's another PerplexIty the debutltr ( : Is going to be confronted with , all that's t. the secret of what makes popularity. She sees that pretty girls and cever : girls and rich girls all have excellent chances to be- . gin with , hut that even those wIth all these ni things In their favor don't Invariably make a success , whIle occasionally girls who aren't really pretty . nor witty at all , nor rich either , come In and make R tremendous t success of It rIght over the heads of girls ; with the qualities they lack She wants to know ] why that Is. Well . the Iest way to : find out Is to ask one of the men who dance t , with that sort of R girl as many times as she will say yes durIng the evening. "What do you see In Mary Jones ? " you lay. "She's not pretty , and she's not very g clever. " Thea the young man will look at you as I . If he suspected you were not only bad tempered - . pored , but a Ito jealous of Mary as well . S , ii- and answer : "Oh , sbe's not a beauty , per- haps , but sho's an awfully attractive looking I : girl" ' , , don't yoU think . IO ? und 100klnJ ' such a , good sort. . , ' , . Td when you , come to analyze what "a . good sort" means you'l find that I Implies t. " Mary Jone , Is 10ly and gay and good temper - per d. 'and' ' > crmseffsh about 'trifles. She k doesn't say nasty things about other gIrls : ( she Is willing to leI everybody share In her ? fun she never pllys any little mean oclal i trick : she Is nol taken up with herself aU . , the while , and she Is honest , genuIne , frank and kindly. She Is the girl who likes to i , talk to old gentlemen tD ghvo them the pleasure of a bit. of gvo tle bIt gay gossip with a fresh L t. r young girl : she takes time to be civil to the I . old ladles , shin sympathizEs with bashful . girls younger than herself and Is good between I ; whiles to awkward boys. She doesn't dangle , about In hot rooms all day munching bon bona . 4.nhl rcaln ! novels but Is full of Interests - toccata and occupations , and has the buoyancy slut vigor or high health and ' overflowing 4 Bplrlt The important part Is that she to sn't pretend to be any of these things , , t o but realy Is what she seems to be. The ; . dehiutante wl learn In time . as every enc , . . does leain , that while It Is very easy to ; pretend I Is very difcult to deceIve people I ! with . Our friends . wih pretegsts. frends all know our . r al characters pretty well , and the way to , snake people think wo are good tempered and I ; : kindly Is to be cod tempered and kIndly. ! . I - . Another larson the pretty debutante Is ] ear- Ing while she flits about ball whie fls bal rooms like a I frisky young butterfly Is the lesson of adapta- : r bihity. A little experlen teaches her that : even though she was the cleverest girl In ! school and the valedictorIan of her class II Is ' best nol to talk philosophy or discuss serious problems between the figures In the cotillon. She will have plenty of proper occasions to "how what she know , but In the bal room such topics are heavy " ! Il unsuitable ] , and she t , had much better content herself wIth a merry . I give and take or nonsense and nothings , ao that nothIng I. losl when the dance comes to C break la upon the' sentence. Or If the debutante - * . tenth happens to be of the purely butterfly order or mnd : she will soon learn when she C . t , chances to sit besIde some grave elderly man I at dinner that though her innocent chaler ' may amuse him for the moment he will easily . . tire of It , and her belt plan will be to listen . to him instead lie will be sure to enjoy lsten tnle- , lug to I paIr of Irlh. young eyes that glva respectful attention to what he says , There Is realy , when one comes to thInk of . It , no end of II thing that this apparently care x apparenty free girl debutante must bo busy with learn- Ing. One Is to drop mosl of her school. girl ' ! t.4 llang and be rather more careful with her wih sonhnces. Another Is to steer carefully be- ; twecn the Ilanger of Ielng 1 " carefuly " , . or a tiresome young prig. 'fa lear that notes C must be answered at once and all engage g meats carefully kept even I they happen not ? to be amusing ones . She must learn , too the hard lelson of governing her tongue , and be. : lag discreet In her talk , lest she alienate I friends and get herel Into dllculles , which : I ' i- , . i perhaps , the ( most cllrull lesson of all . Then there Is the lea r\ ' be learned of not L ooklng ] bored every tIm . ulD feels the sensa - . ton , lest one wound the feelings of khlly snsa- people who are unlucky enough tD be dull , S r I wl be necessary to teach herself how dul ; rid of bores without being rude , which Is a x "hole art In itself , and again how to meet ai 1 , - ImperlnenC wIth dIgnIty. and hew to re . j have the shyness of timid people wIth her . own calm confidence . Let th , debutante : never . think thul lessons ended with the closing of r - II . the school . room door : indeed , now that she ! , / " I gay young woman In society they are reallI jut beginning , and wil take more study anl arb far more difcult to lear than any she I ever found In books . .
