WON HIS BET. How an Elderly Gentleman Played it on his Younger Companions for a Wine Supper. Chicago Ilccord: In a hotel c.ifc three men were talking about various things, Including women. One rf them was an old man whose personal charms, If he ever posf,.?6cd any , had none years before. lie was llorid and bald and grizzled, yet ha ta'U-.'d as if he were n Lothurio. An ancient beau always amus<>s a younger man who believes that he (the younger man) Is really something of a beau. Th<? gay charmer was telling that youth and good looks could not compote with courtly politeness and diplomatic llattery. Sow. you take any woman, and If you know how to approach her you can po u;> and engage In conversation with her and she won't resent It," he said. Of course you must go at It carefully and know how to Introduce yourself no as not to alarm her." "That sounds all very well," said one of the younger men, "but I'd just, like to j-.ee you put that Into practice. The idea. you bald-headed ojd egotist! I know twenty women any one of whom would freeze you dead If you1 ever attempted to speak to her without havlnp been Introduced to her llrat. You must have a. high, opinion of women or else you must have associated with a pretty cheap lot.f My dear sir, no one could have a more-exalted opinion of i women than I have."-said the old Gentleman. "I don't mean to say that thc6e:\vomen ore flirts, but I do say that a-.clever and diplomatic man can go up to a woman ho ha9 never seen before and talk to li*r, and If lie Is smooth enough ho can put himself on familiar and conlidentlil terms without the least protest from her." "I've seen that tried," remarked the fecond of the younger men. "What's more, I've seen men getrsome terrible throw-downs." "That's because the right man didn't attempt It," said his elderly companion. "I suppose you think you-could have succeeded?" "1 llatter myself that Iwo\ild not have been thrown down, as you term it." "Some of these days ?-Vant to see you try your powers of fascination on the right kind of a woman. If you don't get -the worst of it I miss my guess." "Any time, my dear boy." "All right, I'll Just call that bluff. u<j j.?u oc? vtiuc froujis kiui,- luncnmg by herself over by the last window? I suppose you could walk- 'right over and enter into a conversation with her, couldn't you?" "Certainly." "Well. I'd like to see you do it." "I'll do It if you make it an object. I want you to take another good look at the young lady to satisfy yourself that she Is a model of propriety. You can tell by looking at her'.that she's ret!nod. cultivated and well-bred girl who knows exactly how to take care of ii.-rs-'lf and who. ordinarily*, would not be suspected of taking up .a flirtation-in a hotel cafe." "Especial 1,7 with a bald-headed old codger with a pink nose," suggested one of the younger men. "That's all right. Malign me as much as you please. I simply wish to have you admit that, if I go over there and talk to her for several minutes without offending her then I carry my point. Now, I'll be -flame -with you fellows. You think I'll pretend to recognize her and call her by some fictitious name and apologize and get away. V.'ell, I'll do nothing of the kind. This is to be for dinner for three, of us, understand?? and . everythfng'that goes with it. I'il go over thereVind talk to that girl. I!ll sit down ftesiae her. and before I've talked to her two minut's I'll pat her on the ehoul&r and chuck her under the chin." "And she won't object?'* "If .she puts up her hand to push me away or makes any movetnen* to indicate that what I'm doing is distasteful to h>r. you win the bet." "I think you are crazy," said one of the younger men. "Well, so do I." add-d another. "The question is, do you want to to make the bet?" "Well. I don't want to conspire to have a young lady Insulted," said one of them. "Don'r you worry about that. I know my business." "And I think-you are blufllng. Now go ahead." He ose and with his hat In his hand walked over toward the table at which the pretty p'.rl was seated. They saw him approach the table 'and bow. It was evident that he was saying something, but the*' could not hear. When the girl llrst looked up she seemed timidly surprised nnd then the expression on her face changed to one of serious Interest. He continued to talk and the firl was unquestionably Interested. Presently he relapsed into the chair at her side, and then, -to their unspeakable horror, he reached over and patted her on the shoulder and almost immediately afterward chucked her under the chin. She did not shrink frora him. She, made no sign of protest. "lie's hypnotized her," said one of the loser.". "Did you ever see anything to boa:.that? What in the world do you suppose he said to her?" "I give it up." "When the elderly companion returned, smiling and victorious, he llrmly declined to tell what he had said to the young woman. "We dine at 0:30," he said. They never learned how he managed it. The attractive young woman who ha-1 lunched at the hotel cafe was talkin? ro her Jntitmaic* friend. "Oh. Helen, I had such an experience to-day," she exclaimed. "You know when you telephoned that you couldn't ' ::i" J went into the cafe and had l'in-h nil by myself.
