about this attraction--for the love of to-day is
curiously enough always different from the
love of yesterday-the most perfect of love
will be possible If only one loves, and that one
the man. man very quickly wearies of the
woman who loves him. For awhile alteration
is delightful, then it is like too much sweet
and clogs him. A woman is wisest when she
has a sincere affection for a man, and her
wisdom is that of the serpent when she always
keeps an attraction in reserve for him and he
is never quite sure of the charm that may
come next. When he next meets her she may
greet him either with the words he has most
longed for or a perfectly dressed salad He
doesn't know whether there will be a sweet
invalid who can make his heart swell with Joy,
because his hand only can make the poor head
stop aching; or whether bright coquette will
offer to pin rosebud in his coat. Never to
let man be quite sure is the secret, for GER
tainty and safety are twin sisters
WHEN LOVE is MOST LASTING.
Love and affection are unlike in one thing;
affection should be the vin ordindire of life,
love that curious liqueur called parfdI amour,
which you take in tiny glass just after din
ner. Then it is appreciated, its flavor is
joyed, and there is just enough to make life
piquant Somebody said, 'tThe history of
love would be the history of humanity; it
would be beautiful book to write. - And
yet, with the exception of n long ago writer,
whoever has attempted to write the history of
love has always made the mistake of making
it the history of woman. Why? Well, one is
to be the never-understood creation, the other
the enever-to-be-analyzed emotion. But after
all. thiS np lnua ic bac m mad, Inv
quoting what clever man said long ago, (by

HOW WISE WOMEN KEEP WELL.
There was one reason why the smart New
York woman looked well on Easter Sunday
che was thoroughly and beautifully clean. For
four days before, at one time or another, at one
bath or another, she had been scrubbed and
rubbed, showered and sprayed, and came out
feeling herself like new sort of flower pre-
pared to look its best on Easter Sunday. see
the usual wall about the society woman break
ing down is going through the newspapers,
and it is as absolutely untrue as that the
farmers wife leads an idyllic life. The
woman of the world is as well taken care of
as a thoroughbred horse. She is rubbed until
her satiny skin glows, takes her beef tea when
she comes in at night, in the place of warm
mash, and while she enjoys a good dinner,
she doesn't allow herself to eat too much or
too often. She is too wise to devour quanti-
ties of sweets and ices, and while she is very
often the wit, she is just as often the wisdom
of an afternoon tea, and she is the woman who
is going to look well when she is fifty or sixty,
because she does understand
THE ART OF TAKING CARE OF HERSELF.
The Russian bath is her greatest help In this,
and once week sees her religiously going
through the ceremony, making a dash into the
plunge, being sprayed until she glows, bun
died up in blankets until she is thoroughly
warm, then rubbed dry, and out she comes
looking as bright as new dollar, feeling as If
she had cast off a garment of dirt and was In
her right mind. Ride? Not bit of it. She
has learned from the Southern women and the
dogs that after her bath she wants to walk on
the sunny side of the street. and If the sun
shine does put a freckle or two on her face it
will make her eyes clear and her skin healthy
looking The extremely athletic young
woman isn't as wise as this one, for hanging
on bars and trapezes and doing all sorts of
things they do at the circus are not exercises
calculated to make women beautiful in form:
they make them muscular and q little bit
masculine, but you are not particularly
anxious to have your daughter that way, are
you?
UNIQUE EASTER LUNCHEON.
There were some pretty Easter souvenirs at
luncheon the other day that all pointed
moral party of ten women resolved to
make over their last spring bonnets for Easter
and give the money for the new to some young
girls to whom a new bonnet ON Easter Day
would mean perfect delight. man who
heard OF this gave them luncheon, and the
souvenirs were in the shape of willow hats
gilded and filled with hyacnths and jack roses
while the broad white ribbon loops had the
name and date in gold upon one and on the
other this twisting around of an old quotation
''She did good by stealth, and blushed to find
it fame" These girls were perfectly delighted
at the thoughtfulness of the man. You know
it is very nice to do good and then have some
body find it out.
HOW TO ENCOURAGE PEOPLE.
In fact, all of us would be great deal gooder
if we were encouraged more.
What kind of encouragement
There is an immense amount of encourage
ment in pleasant greetings greeting that
means you're here, and Pm here, and it is a
happy world.
There is an immense amount of encourage
ment in two or three loving words-the little
affectionate words that don't count for SO
much apparently, but that make cold ones and
stern ones easier to bear.
