There la generally something force
ful about a bnrl mnn which appeals to
a woman as strength, something primi
tive and fine. She reels the personality
of the scamp, for he possesses person
ality. Like the moth fluttering round
the candle, which gets scorched at last,
the woman who is attracted hy a bud
man usually ends hy being his.
She ir.uy even be aware of his bad
ness, and It does not repel her. In the
heart of a good woman there Is u I ways
the- desire to help. She Imnglnes that
her power will be so great that she
will be able to reform him.
Women seem to glory in self-sacri
fice, and they revel in maklnt martyrs
of themselves. The most cruelly treat
ed wife wll! rarely bear a word against
her mate. She herself will tell you of
hla cruelty, but beware of how yon
sympathize. It Is not for you to con
