12. HOMELY MEN are admired by women if they are large, strong and vigorous
and possess a good degree of intelligence. Looks are trifles compared with
the other qualities which man may possess.
13. YOUNG MAN, If you desire to win the love and admiration of young
ladies, first, be intelligent; read books and papers; remember what you
read, so you can talk about it. Second, be generous and do not show a
stingy and penurious disposition when in the company of ladies. Third, be
sensible, original, and have opinions of your own and do not agree with
everything that someone else says, or agree with everything that a lady may
say. Ladies naturally admire genteel and intelligent discussions and
conversations when there is someone to talk with who has an opinion of his
own. Woman despises a man who has no opinion of his own; she hates a
trifling disposition and admires leadership, original ideas, and looks up
to man as a leader. Women despise all men whom they can manage, overrule,
cow-down and subdue.
14. BE SELF-SUPPORTING.--The young man who gives evidence of thrift is
always in demand. Be enthusiastic and drive with success all that you
undertake. A young man, sober, honest and industrious, holding a
responsible position or having a business of his own, is a prize that some
bright and beautiful young lady would like to draw. Woman admires a
certainty.
15. UNIFORMED MEN.--It is a well known fact that women love uniformed men.
The soldier figures as a hero in about every tale of fiction and it is said
by good authority that a man in uniform has three more chances to marry
than the man without uniform. The correct reason is, the soldier's
profession is bravery, and he is dressed and trained for that purpose, and
it is that which makes him admired by ladies rather than the uniform which
he wears. His profession is also that of a protector.

What Men Love in Women.
1. FEMALE BEAUTY.--Men love beautiful women, for woman's beauty is the
highest type of all beauty. A handsome woman needs no diamonds, no silks or
satins; her brilliant face outshines diamonds and her form is beautiful in
calico.
2. FALSE BEAUTIFIERS.--Man's love of female beauty surpasses all other
love, and whatever artificial means are used to beautify, to a certain
extent are falsehoods which lead to distrust or dislike. Artificial beauty
is always an imitation, and never can come into competition with the
genuine. No art can successfully imitate nature.
