The Eyes Of Love
''V w
BY Beatrice Faft1ax

(kVX 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 that 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 peasanter 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 friend:
He is too honorable to do that" in
stead of saying, He is none too good.
what difference it would make in the
person of whom it is said.
a 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.

to understand that our opinions of them
