H9t? TO TELL
WHEN MEN ARE NOT IN LOVE BUT ARE
PRETENDING TO BE.
I would give anything in the world
to know whether he i9in earnest or
not ," is the thouot that pnssvs throu
gh the ininila of most younjr zirls when
tlej have receive ! a good m inv calln
from some handsome beuu ieal who
seems to just suit their fancy.
"But how can 1 ever find out?" they
cry despairingly. "Oh ! tor some ma
gic ulass thai would mirror his heart
and show me what is written on its
tablet". Let me tell you my dc;.r how

really attracted toward you are not.
Think over these ideas Tor yourselves
When a young man has to be urged
to call on you wueu ou have to
make opportunities to see him, or
liud excuses to write- to him, depend
upon it, you are having your trouble
for your pains, tor believe me he -not
particularly attracted toward you,
he-! not in love. If he calls irregularly
and not often, he is not .troubling

imn. .Love always makes a iqmi
fearful i.hat he may by any slip of des
tinv lo3e his treasure, and he never
fet h safe until after he has won the
object of his adoration. It is truly
suid that love makes a man bashful
and unassuming iu bis manner.
YVhtna man i;3 eager to Lave you

you may know then at once tha. how
ever bright and witty you may be,
he is not lor you. For even should you
be unfortunate enongh to marry him,
tou would not be blessed with that

he is not in love. Of course, in urej t
ces, he may not be able to help i't
but if it is at all possible, word
should always be sent, or he cans ot
l.e called in love with you. As
Rosalind suys in 'As You Like It :"
" The man who comes one minute late
is not in love."
A young man who is continually
asking to be introduced to vour
young lady friends is not frutisled
wiih you. for he is not in love; nor is
he in !nve who always brings a mar
riageable gentleman companion with j
him when calling upon you, for when
re:d love enters his heart he is jealous,
a certain ex ent, of all attention
bestowed upon others. He wishes to
m-ike sure of ott:iiuing you, and
will not knowingly throw others in
your way if he really care fur you
Another and an excel. ent plan, of
reveling the all-important secret which
some do not dare to own themselves,
is hrough his correspondence when he
is away from you As a general rue.
when lovers are separa: e J, his letters
should come often Do the? Does he
seem to find consolation in writing you
letters long and often?
He may send you one every day for
a long time and then writo every three
or four days. This, you say, is prob
able, because he is busy. . Then they
come every week, then two weeks
apart, then they are dictated, and theu
well, they don't come at all; f.-r
little by !itt!e. h3 has gently broken
loose from the slight yes, vry slight
cnain of mere friendship which bouuu
vou together and which voa believe
was love. A lover's letters shou d
come often and many to yo ir one. f r
oh! your little fioely written missive
bring ba'm and reiief to him; if he
does not care to receive thorn, he is
not in love. Do not kneel before his
picture and weep your eyes out for
htm. Forget him, and say to yourself:
"What care I how f lir he be.
If he be not fair to me."
He is simply not in love.
