WEALTH CANNOT BUY THEM.

nzrA LynSsL1nf0a Ennmarates = Few Of
Lifss UnRSSchasabies.
When Mrs. Lynn EinSon forgets to be
original and radical, she Is capable Of
saying some fairly pleasant things. The
idea that many things of value cannot
be bought, and that those things which
can be bought are only OF secondary I'M.
portance in the world, Is not strikipgly
new. Two or three people had hit upon
b before Mrs. Linton. But what she
says about the unpurchasable things Ii
not the less interesting and timely be-
cause they have been said ever since the
deluge.
There Is happiness, she tells as. that
gold may not buy. When the woman
ron l~ovesdeceives you, and the portrait
gem clasped worn over her heart shows
another face than yours-whcn the hus-
band you were unconventional enough
TO love Id the fearless old fashion lies
dead In your arms, and your whole fu-
ture ID dAfkened and storm riven-when

Then there are love and honor and
youth that the gold Of the Indieswill
not purchase, And in these days when
creams and lotions, dietings and exercises
claim to put Off the evil hour Of age
it ID well to read what this very level
headed woman says about youth.
"You may buy fashion cosmetics she
says, ssartful enhancements, subtle dyes
that look almost rs good as the real
thing, but you cannot buy youth nor
beauty. In spite Of ell your care, and
though You give 10 shillings for the val
