WHAT SINCERITY is.
The Consciousness and Analysis of the
Motives of All Life's Actions.

The Consciousness and Analysis of the
Motives of All Life's Actions.
Love contains no complete and last
ing happiness in the transparent at
mosphere of perfect sincerity. To the
point of this sincerity, love is but an
experiment.; we live in expectation,
and our words and kisses are only
provisional. But sincerity is not pos
sible except between lofty and trained
consciences. Moreover. it is not
enough that these consciences should
be such; this is requisite besides, if
sincerity is to become natural and es-
sential-that the consciences shall be
almost equal, OF the same extent, the
same quality. and that the hove that
unites them shall be deep laid.
But it is impossible to be sincere
with others before learning to be sin
cere toward ones self Sincerity is
only the consciousness and analysis of
the motives Of all life's actions. 1t
is the expression of this consciousness
that one is able later to lay before the
eyes OF the being with whom he Is
seeking the happiness of sincerity
From Maurice Maeterlinck's "Sinceri-
ty and Love-" IN the CeEtury.

TRANSPORTATION At THE FAIR.
Intrdmural Cars Penetrate Every Sec
tion Of Exposition--Roller Chairs
Transport Visitors Through Ex-
hibit Paiaces--Lagoons Are Navi-
gated BY Picturesque Condolas.

Transports, facilities at the
Worlds Fair of 1904 are as modern
and up-to-date as are other features
of this greatest of all expositions.
Electricity is the prime mover, as
witnessed in the Intramural Railway,
automobiles and electric launches on
the lagoons; yet the picturesque jim
rikshas, the comfortable roller chairs
and the poetic ,,ondolas, propelled by
the hand Of man, are well in evidence.
For varied plcturesqueness ride OH
the Intramural has not it's equal in the
world. Starting from a point central
among palaces that are more ornate
than any ever conjured by Aladdin's
lamp, the visitor is carried between
other structures of equal magnitude
and grandeur on the one side, and the
bizarre habitations of Pike conces-
sionaires on the other. From the left

Basin, for in the distance three cas-
cades leap and tumble from their
source beneath the Terrace OF States
and the Hall of Festivals.
Manning the gondolas are men from
Venice attired in the picturesque cos
tunes of the Italian water city; in
command of the speedy launches are
skilled electricians and careful pilots.
Meanwhile hundreds of automobiles
reach points not accessible from the
Intramural or the boats on the lagoon,
and so do roller chairs and those fan
ciful conveyances from Japan. These
comfortable. slow moving vehicles are
especially liked by persons who wish
to study the architecture of the great
buildings at their leisure. and who can
take their time in doing the Fair"
Nor have the little ones been forgot
ten. for there are hundreds of baby
push carts for rent by the hour, so
that entire families can be transport
ed from place to place without under

shafts. proving the constant activity
in the main palaces that is feature
of this Exposition; from the right,
weird notes of Oriental music and the
voices of the strong lunged, calling at
tention to the fantastic sights that are
within walls. Up grade speeds the
roomy and gaily decorated motor cars,
around the brown stone buildings,
which were constructed for Washing
ton University and adopted by the
Worlds Fair, past the Hall of Con-
crosses, past the domain of physical
culture, the great Stadium, then
through fields OF blue grass near the
Filipino Village, around the massive
Palace of Agriculture, across trestles,
up other grades and into the woods.
Skirting the domain of State buildings

exhibits that have a value in the eyes
OF every visitor and a far deeper inter-
est TO specialists in the many lines of
human activity. For example, in the
Palace of Trans oortation there are
four miles Of tracks for the exhibition
of locomotives and cars Of all kinds,
besides the large spaces reserved for
motor cycles, pleasure vehicles and
the heavy wagons for business use.
The figures of the engineering depart
ment show that there are thirty five
miles Of roadway within the Exposi-
tion grounds.
These facts and figures convey to the
mind some idea of the character of the
Worlds Fair, but they should appall
no one, for the arrangement of the
whole is such as to enable the visitor
to get about freely and to find what he
wants to see with little difficulty.
This wonderful Exposition reveals
the growth and development of past
years and foretells gr ,ater things to
come.
Bigness is not, however, the quality
which most appeals. The vast proper
tioRs Of the Worlds Fair come from
necessity in the portrayal of the
worlds activity and growth rather
than from effort to outrival former un-
dertakings. In tie planning of this
universal exposition consideration was
given to the forward step which the
world has taken in the decade since
