EYES
ARE SHARP
BY CYNTHIA GREY.

Its all over. l can never love
man like that. Look at his hair!"
These were the words of Mrs.
Meyer Bookman, of Jersey City.
She was eating her wedding break
fast when she made the horrible
discovery that the man to whom she
had been married half hour before
didn't comb his hair to suit her.
Mrs Bookman fed from the we'd
ding guests and left the house.
Later the deserted husband asked
for a divorce.
So love isn't blind, after all. He
has the sharpest of eyes. The bad
habits, the defects. the unpleasant
mannerisms of the loved one are
magnified by the one who loves
him best.
The girl who thinks that love is
blind and that after marriage she
won't mind the little eccentricities
that have annoyed her during her
courtship, will find that she has
made a mistake.
The more we love. the more we
see to find fault with.
To the eye sharpened by love
mole hills become mountains.
A husband may be the idol of his
wfe's heart. but his faults look
bigger to her than to anyone else.
Woman expects and wishes for
perfection in those she loves, and
any little thing that appears as a
blemish grows and grows until she
sees nothing but the blemish.
So it was with the pride who ran
away from her bridegroom because
she didn't like the way he combed
his hair. She had to go through
the wedding ceremony before she
could understand that loves eyes
are the sharpest of eyes.
The wife realized fault where
the sweetheart had seen none, and
she knew that the presence of the
defect would haunt her all the days
of her life.
Two lives were hurt because
man gave peculiar twist to his
hair 1t is little thing. Most
wives would have stood by the man
in spite of the hair. Most sweet
hearts would have discovered the
defect before the marriage cere-
mony. Some women wouldn't have
cared how he cOmbed his hair.
There will be plenty of people who
will swear that the bride was a lit
tie idiot.
Well may be she was; may be
she wasn't True it is that she
ought to haverun away from the
man before the wedding VOWS were
taken; but say what we will. the
happiness of more than one family
is wrecked by just such foolish
notions, just such idiotic whims.
A scar or a twisted finger scarce
ly noticeable to mans acquaint-
ances, are gall and NORWOOD to
the wife who loves him.
Love would have the object of its
devotion perfect; love sees all
things and seeing-suffers.

When President Roosevelt called

reference to the Japanese question

everything up to the local board of
education. Then President Roose-

some members of the board to see
it if would not be possible to sway
the members from the decided
stand they had taken in living up
to the state laws. 1t was suggested
that one or two members of the
board should go to Washington and
there talk the matter over with the
chief executive. The board of edu-
cation decided that one or two
members could not properly ex-
plain the situation on the Pacific
