GIRLS WHO GET TIRED.

Probably the average girl doseu't know her own mind more than a few minutes at a time. She is forever wishing - something or another was .■something else until it i.s something else, and then she wishes it was still another thing. When she goes shopping she has the most dreadful time of it. She is almost always certain to want to return whatever she gets and get something else. When she does not do this it is because she has not on her shopping excursion been able to keep her mind together long enough to buy anything of sufficient eonseuueuee to return.

Whether the jmy will award the moustache and necktie any damages has not yet been determined. In cases like this girls would do themselves more justice if they would get tired sooner. The largo majority of them don't find out how tired they arc till after marriage, and then the husband whom they have not concerned themselves very much to select cannot bo exchanged like the threequarters of a yard of ribbon which has coat them weeks of anxiety and painf id thought and care.

read this. She doesn't want advice on the matter of selecting a husband, but when she is going to buy a new pair of stockings site will seek the i\ isdom and experience of all her acquaintances. Girls are the prize puzzles of the world. —Philadelphia Press.
