Tho girl whose self-consciousness takes the form of bashfulness or of wondering how she can hope that any one will rare for such ait unattractive person as her self soon becomes awkward and unattrac tive through thinking herself so. But the people who know her well ear for her In spite of her over-modesty. She. however, does not attract new ac quaintances and la not generally populai at dances or gatherings, where the girl of Celeste's type makes a good' Impres sion. Celeste attracts, but cannot hold, for the conceitedly self-conscious girl Is a horesomo and unlovable creature. She tells f her conquests and her accom pllshmrnts. Bhe boasts of her admirers and her talents and she estranges the people who might have appreciated her very genuine talents if they had been al low ed to discover them unaided. A bore was once defined aa "a person who talks about himself when I want to talk about myself.' The girl who la al ways talking about herself offends this principle of human nature, and soon la set down as a bore hy people who share her fault In a lesser degree. It antagonizes people to have e. girl given to self-praise. It rouses the con trary spirit In folks when a girl 'seems so well pleased and satisfied with herself aa fairly to dare their criticism. Sweetness and modesty enhance a girl's prettiness three-fold, and when a girl Is always peeking at herself In mirrors and contentedly patting the waves In her hair she Invites a plrlt of criticism. People avoid a girl who Is always harp ing on herself. Hhe seems too self-centered and selfish to have any admiration or tmpathy to give them. In fact, aha seems to have no Intereat to spare from that vast store she la lavishing on her self. And the world Is full of diversified ' Interests. A good listener la always popular. Th glil who has the lu-blt of talking" about herself Is too busy discussing every phase of her own affairs to listen to other people's Interests, or to stop to con. slder that what Is absorbingly Interesting to her Is probably not at all important to her wearied listener. Celeste attracts by her prettiness and Jolly nature. She bores and tires people by harping on her own good points. You all know how deadly It la to have to listen to one note reiterated again and again on a musical Instrument. That Is exactly the blunder nade by the girl who talks shout herself. Bhe might get har mony front her nature, but she harps and harps on her own self until a worn-out and nervous listener longs for any means to choke off her flow of contended words. Hun t talk about yourselves, girls. If you do you wl'.I be consigned to the un profitable and lonely role of talking to yourselves!
