Magic Formula for Making a Girl Attractive to Men. Shall This Girl Confess Her Love for Her Sister’s Husband? - Tactless Widow Who Married Again

Dear Miss Dix-I don't sgreawith you that it is impossible to hand out a patented formula for making a girl attractive to me. There is an old, attested recipe that my mother used when she was a girl, and shs taught it to me and I have handed it down to my daughter, and lt still works in this modern day just as it did in the old mid-Victorian period because all men of all ages are alike.

For a conversational line tell ‘em that they are great and wonderful and big boys. Learn how to do things-how tn swim, play tennis, golf and so on. And especially how to dance. Find out what s boy's fav- orite sport is and get him to teach it to you. Iearn how to do it well enough to keep him interested, but never get proficient enough to beat him. Don't ever try to be brilliant or show of‘! before a man. Keep . the spotlight on him. And always surround an un- attractive girl with plenty of other girls who have it. They will draw the man and the homely sister gets the left-overs. Try this rule, it never fails.

Doubtless the first thing that Eva said to Adam as sho rolled her eyes at him and gave him the once over was to exclalm about how big and strong and wonderful he was and tell him that she fell for him the first time that she saw him. And Adam lent an attractive ear, as every man has ever done ever since when a woman talked to him about himself and decided in his own mind that she was a young person of superior taste and Judgment and so entertaining that he could go on listening to her forever.

Of course, it may be said that it was no great trick for Eve to date up Adam, inasmuch as she was the only woman in the world and so had no competition, but it really wouldn't have mattered how many other females there had been nor how much pulchrltude they had possessed if sho had i been able to get in her line of chatter about his perfectlons. He would never

have known the others were there as long as the siren was singing this i saga of his charms.

It is all very well for a girl to be a good locker and a swell dresser, be- cause that gives her her chance at a man, but the thing that holds him is for her to be a good talker, and when I say a good talker I don't mean that she must be brilliant nor intellectual nor witty. Indeed, far from it. ‘rho farther the better. No man wants a girl around which is a wise-cracker be- _cause, inthe first place, he may not feel himself caprble of handing her a. snappy comeback and in the second place because it shocks a man's ideal of a girl for her to be “wise" and cynical. No matter. how hard-boiled he may be he wants a girl's soul to wear white muslin and blue ribbon and for her to say her prayers and believe in Santa Claus and be generally sweet and gentle and unsophisticated.

Nor do men want to discuss high-brewed subjects with women. When they talk about the Einstein theory and the modern movements in literature and art and politics, they want to talk with other men, and there are two good reasons for this also. One is that their vanity will not. permit them to enjoy talking to a woman who knows more than they do on any subject and ths other is that if she doesn't know anything about the subject she bores them to tears. .

And no woman makes a greater mistake than in trying to be humorous with men. Men don't like funny women. Nor women who laugh too much. They always have an uneasy suspicion that she is laughing at them.

Therefore, the woman who is a good talker with men talks to them about themselves to the exclusion. of any other topic. She is the human questionnaire. She asks them minutely about their childhood, about how they succeeded in business, about their golf or their car, and she listens with bated breath while they tell the stories of their lives and how they pulled of! a deal or sold a bit of goods or what vMr. llfoover should do about prohibition.

Then, in this day, girls have to be up and doing. Gone are the halcyon times when men sought out the shrinking violet. Now a maiden has to be not only a. sunflower but one who takes the precaution of planting herself in a man's way so that he stumbles over her if she gets noticed. In other words, she has to be Sally on the spot.

I iii-

That is why so many girls who do not need to support themselves are going into business. They don't sit at home and suck their thumbs and wait for some fairy prince to come riding by and espy them. They go down into the offices where the good chances are and where they have the op- portunity of plying their arts and wiles on men at close range. Many a man marries a girl he never would have noticed in society just because she works beside him every day and she gets to be a habit with him.

Many girls who are homely avoid being seen out with pretty girls be- cause they fear comparisons. This is a mistake. Every plain girl should hunt up the best-looking girl she can find for a running mate, because the pretty girl will attract the boys and that will give her a chance to do her stuff. For beauties do not always wear well on closer acquaintance. Nearly always they are egotistic and selfish and like to show their power by order- ing men about, and this does not make a hit with tho ‘sex that likes to have the kow-towlng done to it.

So here is where Little Plain Face gets in her deadly work. She is so much sweeter, so much less self-centered, so willing and anxious to be pleased and so appreciative of every attention that oftener than not she wins out instead of the beauty.

So perhaps the formula for a girl making herself popular with men can be summed up into one phrase: keep s man pleased with himself and he will be pleased with you. DOROTHY DIX.
