A Bachelor Girl's Reflections. After marriage, a man should close his ears, a woman her eyes, and both of them, their mouths. Don't worry about the man whose heart is hard; it's the kind whose heart is soft and pliable that will keep you hanging on the ragged edge of doubt from the wedding day to the grave. When a man looks in the mirror, he sees nothing but his own fasci- whén a woman flection of all the men who admire her, and wonders what she can do to make them keep right on admiring her. A man is never a hopelessly con- firmed bachelor until he reaches that stage of emotional inertia where he can enjoy kissing one woman while he is thisking of another. Giggle at a baby and pretend to and it will adore you; laugh at a mans jokeg and pre- tend to enjoy his games and his sto- mies, and he will regard you as "the only woman iu the world who under- stands him."
