The Easiest Wav— For a woman to fail to capture a man’s fancy is—to let him fancy that he has captured hers. To win success is—to work hard I for it. To get through life having people do things for you is—never to learn to do anything for yourself. To keep from being an old maid : is—to marry. For the average man not to be bearish and cross at the breakfast table is—to eat his breakfast in bed. To save money is—not to spend it To make a man admire a woman’s intellect is—for her to pretend that she admires his. To keen from boring other is—, never to tell them your own troubles but always allow them to tell you theirs. To make Life smile on you is—to smile on it. For a man to win love it—to plead | for it (which is likewise the easiest way for a woman to lose it)* Not to grow old is—to give it. For a woman to fool a man is— just any old way she chooses. It's always dead easy! ■ FOR CHRISTMAS “The Best Taste in Gifts'9 It’s Christmas! The whole world’s decked for joy.
