MARSHFIELD, ORE. wdBj LOVE 1IG AS A SCIENCE Herman Lee Menders, Author, Win ning Art, Declares It's Xo Longer Gnme of Chance, hut a Business Proposition. CHICAGO, Dec. 23. "Cupid, the Surgeon," or what might more de finitely be entitled "Practical Love Making," is a book on the mysteries of the tender passion, just sent forth by Herman Lee Meaders, who says love Is no longer a game of chance, but an exact science. You need not be handsome, rich or fascinating, to win. All that Is re quired is to assimilate the rules as you would so many pink pills and she is yours, says the American. Be It known, In the first place, that all women fall Into four classes or at least Mr. Meaders says they do the conceited, the sentimental, the mercenary and the blase. The im mediate thing for one to do Is to de cldo In which category his beloved "belongs. "Give flattery to the conceited woman," says the author, "promise of eternal fidelity to the sentimental rne, precious gifts to the mercenary and sensational thrills to Iter who is tormented with ennui." Rules on Lovcniaking. Here are some of the rules of love making as revised by Mr. Meaders, and somo of the now philosophy and wisdom that illuminate the rules: "If I were allowed to give but two words of advice, they would bo 'pa tience' and 'pcrsovernnce." "The man who never parleys over cab fares, who never scans the prices on a wlno list or a menu, and who hibernates when he's broke, carries an infallible amulet against femi nine criticism. "Remember that in the final bal ance a woman Is always a woman. "A carefully prepared toilet and a modish wardrobe may be Indlspen slble, yet the real masculine triumph depends on the strength, flattery, generosity and apparent sincerity. "Supplement and erect carriage with an athletic swing to your walk and a discreet amount of bluster about your prowess, and the woman will soon have a gladiator on a ped estal. "Flattery is like morphine the more you have the more you want and must have. So be liberal. "Hero worship Is as much a part of woman as corset stays, and the mar tyr spirit Is never deeper than her epidermis. "The Pasteur treatment may save you from rabies, but there is no anti toxin In all materia medica that of fers any relief to the young man bit ten by a rejuvenated dame whose face is a panorama of warfare be tween crow's feet and cosmetics." INHERITED A FORTUNE. Rut Young Man Will Still Wash Livery Rmjgies. DANVILLE, 111., Dec. 23. Bert Reeves of Flemingsburg, Ky., who has been employed In this city In the livery barn of F. M.
