when Your Friends Prove False.
One OF the greatest follies to which men
and women are prone is that tendency to
regard all the world with distrust because
one has at some time been deceived in a
fellow being. --.r.-
How can 1 ever again have faith in
the goodness and sincerity of any MANI"
asks a woman whose life has been a
tragedy. AS she lifts her sad, hopeless
eyes, all you can say is, But they are not
all like him." You do say it. And you
know she does not believe YOU
For long while 1t will be impossible for
her to believe in the goodness of human
nature. Her confidence has been bitterly
shaken.
Nevertheless, just so surely as she lives
to grow wiser and deeper, she will come to
regain her old faith that men and women
are not bad, and that even in the worst
lies a tiny. undeveloped germ Of good.
Because one friend is false and untrue
1t is folly to declare there is no such thing
as true friendship, says the Philadelphia
Bulletin. The ideal of perfect friend
ship remains. 1t is still as true and real
as IL spurious limitations had never been
coined.
This faultless ideal Is no more done away
with by a failure to live up TO II than is
the painting OF the old master destroyed
by the imperfect efforts of an amateur
artist to COPY 1t. The masterpiece re-

So with all our human relationships. One

the silly reasoning of child.
Human nature is faulty and imperfect

learn this truth the wiser we shall be
But II Is not all bad. No, not even half
bad. For the most part II is warm, and
generous, and loving. And II we are very
true ourselves, we shall find it true, too.
No one, says a wise writer, is desolate

But even when this refuge fails, and the
