Men to Blame for Female Frivolity.

Is the way, I think occasionally hard put to from woman to the effect that girls are responsible for all the frivolity in the world. Don't you know that you are the very ones who tend to ruin the nice young man? You follow after silly women and would just that sort of girls You won't look at a sensible little woman who can make 'lovely' bread. hasn't style, can't dance and has no 'wit.' You laugh and make sly jokes at the quiet of our bag hats and our trained fashions, but when you don't your company, and often your wives. I quite you pay right by the topping links and take the max cocks. It won't have her modest and simply gown she is willing to make a fearful bridal doll and a travesty of herself to get you and win heaven!! You know perfectly well, you men, that you don't care half so much for brains as you do for 'get-up.' and the woman you honor with your choice is rejected for a pretty face and form and a bewitching costume rather than for a clever head and an honest heart.

I am not talking to old fogies who cling to old fashioned notions. but to young men who ridicule the customs of their grandmothers, who shake their heads at the salaries of two and three thousands a year as inadequate to support wives: who rail against woman's extravagance, yet do their best to maintain her in it. When you, my fine and dapper gentleman, begin to seek out the modestly apparelled and the sedate girls, then shall folly and vain show fly over seas for want of encouragement and the grand transformation of sawdust dolls into women and pleasure seekers into homemakers take place.-Cor.
