MORE BACHELORS FOR THE GIRLS a «, + 4 Series Continues to be Popular With the Women of Vicinity PICK 'EM OUT Please Don't Crowd the Line Forms on the Right is ) It was different back in the dim far past, a woman didn't have the op portunity of stepping out and pick ing the man of Jier jchoice, he always did the choosinft of his helpmeet and not always very gently either. As we remember it, the male of the species was wont to take his club wtih him when he went a-wooing, and the approved method ip those days was to tap the loved One on the head, not viciously, but friendly like, and while she slept peacefully, to drag her off to his home, there to live happily ever after. They Like It And the nice part of such a court ship was that the women always liked it. There was something in the way a woman's man wielded his club that always brought forth her un dying love and admiraton. And friend husband's club, back in the corner of their comfy cave was a sure method of keeping the missus home. As the years went by, the woman became a little m^re educated, they knew a little more and began to ex ercise some of their knowledge in se curing their man. If a cave man had a well furnished cave, plenty of cooking utensils and all the mod ern conveniences, you can be sure he did't remain single very long. Some fair, dame would look him and his home over very carefully and some bright cheerful day ,the man and wo man would meet on an unfrequented path, accidentally of course, and if he didn't gently drop his club on her shining tresses, she would bump it against her head anyway fall to the ground and wait for him to drag her off. He had to do it too, because in those days when a woman's head met the club of a man, they were just as good as married. Still Progressing With the ages slipping by we find the ■ woman still progressing, 1 but wisely, so that the man always thinks he is'the one that's doing the wooing, but he isn't, she has been looking him over and if liis prospects are good, if he acts as tho he would take care of her properly, you can bet a hat that some day she will happen to be in his arms just as mother comes in the room and custom decrees they have to announce the engagement. Its a survivaj of those ancient days. One of the first things a wise girl does when she is looking over a pro spective husband is to inquire into his life insurance ideas. If he al ready carries a policy, she doesn't hesitate long and if he doesn't she tried to impress the desirability of it on his mind. That is, the wise grls do. Life Insurance Back in 1916 Mr. Trego devoted some space to a discussion of life insurance and it well worth reprint ing. ''Life insurance," he said "gen erall y looks like a joke to those just arriving at mautrity,* for they think they are going to live forever and be rich. As a matter of fact, very few live that long and some people admit they are poor. The model husband carries life insurance, for he reasons that if he keeps him hustling hard and fast to support Nora and the baby while he is alive and well, it will be rather hard lines for them whetfhe is sick and dead. Sickness and death are hard enough any time but if there comes with It, a stopping of income and increased expenses and new bills, insurance money is like salve oh a wound. Therefore the thoughtful fellow takes out life isurance. If he is the right kind to make a good husband he takes out his insurance policy when he is about twenty years old, while he can get it at a low rate. When he marries he has the policy made over to his wife and still has the low rate for the rest of his life." Mr. Trego then went on to tell about a young couple who were married and carried no life insurance. The husband died and left the young wife with three children and absolutely destitute. He told of the wife, having to practic ally beg to.make a living and then went on to say, "Now girlie, how would you like to be that wife. This is leap year and you might propose to just such a man. It is said there is a goose,for every gander or about that proportion, and the country has a great many ganders running at large. It remains to be seen whether you act the goose. What we want to suggest is that if you are studying character in men, you can get a good tip by finding out whether or not the fellow carries life insurance If he does, it adds to his credit, if he does not, then this is a corking good time for him to hunt for an insurance agent." More Prospects We have hardly made a dent in the list of good prospects for the husband hungry girls. There are lots of them, the woods are full of them, look them over, girls, and don't crowd, the line forms on the right. The Musical Clives If you like music and like the name of Clive you can surely be satisfied with the Cive brothers. One of them Is light complexioned, jolly, good natured, loves music, plays music, Bells music. The other is dark, more of & serious mind and he too loves music, plays music and sells music. Their father Is one of the leading musicians: Of Salt Ltagef City and if you want sort*' one.a bo can entertain you In the evertugs ^ith a few choice musical selections you won t go wrong-if you choose one of the Olive brothers. William 'Clive is the die with the light complexion, Clifford is dark. Take your choice. Distinguished Morgan If you like a man that is excep tionally good looking, real dark and possessing a distinguished sort of an air, then carefully look over the young man we are now presenting for your approval. Johnston ( bow to the ladies, Morgan) who can t help but knofk 'em dead when he walks down the street. Has an air that makes you wonder whether he is the Duke de gink or the Count de bink. He hasn't; lived here all his life sd he might be a count at that. He'd be anornament to any home. Mr. Morgan A Banker Walter Young is the young man who cashes your check at the First National bank. Popular is a weak sort of a word to use in connection with Walter, he's more than popular. They claim in the bank that more of the good looking young ladies in town patronize his window' than any other in town. They even claim and we almost believe it, he has to keep a club in the cage to keep them -away. But even so, that oughtn't worry you girls. Competition is the life of trade and the more of you that w'ant a man, the more desirable he is. Walter has a high forehead, one that almost runs to the hack of his neck, and always has a smile for the girls when they cash a check. And bankers always have money, they say. Better think him over pretty seriously and if you decide on him, move fast, because there is al ways a line of them waiting at his window. \ Another Banker D. C. Collins is another banker and is connected with the banking firm of Mark Farmer at Firth. He is a brother of L. C. Collins, local banker, and came to this country to visit him. He liked the climate and t the scenery so well that he.is staying here. He 4s a good looking chap, cheerful, and has' particularly win ning ways. This information is for the young lades of Firth and vicinity. Take a look at him, lie's a good prospect. Fair and Fat There is only one Louis Stephens and he is fair, fat and good natured. Sometime college man, sometime cowboy, gentleman, plays a wicked hand at poker. Versatile is Louis, wears his hair cut short, smokes cigars, cigarettes and a .pipe. And he was in the army, too and you ought to see him in his uniform. Oh. Kewpie. He's a promising 'young man and looks good to a lot of girls so you'll have to step lively. A Jeweler Drexel Hendricks is in the Christ Jewelery store. He came to this thriving little city shqrtly after his discharge from the arniy and he likes the place and the inhabitants. Rather serious sort of a fellow, but you can't hold that against him. The next time you pass the jewelry store, look in the window and there yu will see Drxel, with a little do hinkus in his eye working on a watch. He can take a watch apart and put it back together again and not have an ypieces left over.
