up into a fluffy little ball in the corner
Of large sofa and refused definitely,
finally and up-and-down to air her
views on health and beauty.
Miss Adams was chosen. for the part
of the Commere in The Follies of 1912
because she speaks beautiful French
for she has lived a long time abroad
and has caught much of the dainty for

home for herself, and when l saw her
her mind was full of number of
things such as window curtains and
wallpaper and gray enamel paint and
rugs. Naturally, we drifted into the
subject of home decorating, and Miss
Adams-who is a very intelligent young
woman besides being a beauty; for, Of
course, she is beauty if she is in "The
Follies"-has this to say to girls and

The Eyes of Love
BY Beatrice Fairfax

NV TE say Love is blind, and the
wv figure of Cupid is drawn
with a. bandage around his
eyes. Blind-yes, because, he does not
see what he does not like; but the
sharpest- sighted hunter in the universe
is Love for finding what he seeks, and
only hat"-Ralph Waldo Emerson.
And he seeks perfection. And away
back in the beginning Of things Some
One said, THAT which We seek We will
find"
This little characteristic of Cupid
would make life pleasanter if adopted
by others than the lover
If girls would seek perfection in their
friends; if they would look for virtues
instead of faults; if they would believe
in the best in every one instead of ex-
pecting the worst!
If it became a universal habit to say
of a friend:
He is too honorable to do that" in
stead of saying, He is none too good"
what a difference it would make in the
person of whom it is said
great many years ago, when Sun
day clothes were really Sunday clothes,
and sacred for that day. it was found
that the world behaved better when It
had its Sunday garments on.
l claim that when we give our friends
to understand that our opinions of them
are exalted it clothes their souls in
Sunday garments. Il know that you
are always honorable" if said to
friend in conviction and sincerity, will
make that friend honorable.
