LAURA JEAN LIBBY'S DAILY TALKS ON HEART TOPICS
toopyright by Newspaper syndlcate)

ished upon her in those sweet old days when they were newly wed.
 In her bitterness, she often accus- es him in her own heart of deliberate ly pushing out the old love which he had vowed in early manhood should be the joy of his life to cherish.
 He has long since forgotten the tenderness which he showered upon her in other days, such as parting. with a caresS from her in the morn ing ere he went to his daily toll; or meeting her with a, kiss at night when he returns. If she has children. he says off-hand to his friends: She has her girl and boys to attend to. She doesn't need me now-doesn't miss me. I'd only be in the way" Thus he stiles the still small voice of conscience, seeing his home only when he eats and sleeps. Such couples drift unconscious1y apart. At last, if she goes off on visit for 9. month or so he bids her lgood-by without a qualn of loneliness. He tells her not to worry about him; he'll get along all right. So he does for the first week. He soon discovers, however, that home can be 8 very desolate place without a wife in it, especially if she has taken the children with her. It is then in his lonely moments he re- fleets that he has not made life very happy for her at home. He wonders 1T ne mas indeed puShe0 the oId love out of her heart.
 HE RESOLVES TO MAKE AMENDS
 What would all the wealth in the world be to him if he lost the affec- ton which inspired him to accumulate year in and year out. He realizes that he is nothing to outsiders. What do they care if he has pain or an ache; if his heart is light or heavy; if affairs go well or i'll with him. At the end of the second week he either sends a telegram for his wife's return or goes in person to fetch her back. It seems to her as if she were living her honeymoon days over again, to feel the warmth of his greeting and to see the old lovelight in his eyes; the new note of tenderness in his voice when he whispered that he was beginning to fear that she was school ing herself to live without him, en- deavoring to reconcile herself to the pitiful determination to push out the old love She makes out of the old, lonely home a new, happy fresids, round which the family gathers.

IS THERE A SANTA CLAUS?

 nance to make tolerable this exist ence. We should have no enjoyment except in sense and sight. The eter- nal light with which childhood fills the world would be extinguished.
 ''Not believe in Santa C1ausl You might as well not believe in fairies! Y You might get your papa to hire men to watch in all the chinneyS on Christmas Eve to catch Santa Claus, but even if they did not see Santa Claus coming down, what would that prove? Nobody sees Santa Claus, but that is no sign that there is no Santa Claus The most real things in the world are those that neither children nor men can see. Did you ever see fairies dancing on the lawn? Of course not. but that's no proof that they are not there. Nobody can con ceive or imagine all the wonders there are unseen and unseenabIe in the world.

Fifteen years ago the late Frank Church wrote an editorial in the New York Sun in response to a little girls question: "Is there a Santa Claus ?'' This editorial, which has become one of the classics, is here reproduced:
 we take pleasure in answering at once and thus prominently the com munication below, expressing at the same time our great qualification that its faithful author is numbered among the friends of The Sun:
 Dear Editor-I am eight years old. Some of my little frieneds say there see it in The Sun, it's so." Please tell me the truth; is there a Santa Claus 9
 VIRGINIA O'HANLAN.
 Virginia, your little friends are wrong. They have been affected by the scepticism of a sceptical age. They do not believe except they see. They think that nothing can be which is not comprehensfb1e by their little minds All minds. Virginia, whether they be mems or children's are little. In this great universe of ours man is g, mere insect, an ant, in his intelligence, as compared with the boundless world about him, as measured by the inteI1i- gence capable of grasping the whole truth and Knowledge.
 ''Yes, Virginia, there is a Santa, Claus. He exists as certainly as love and generosity and devotion exists and you know that they abound and give our life it's highest beauty and Joy. Alas! how dreary would be the world if there were no Santa Claus. It would be az dreary as if there were no VirginiaS. There would be no childlike faith then, no poetry mo TO-

BEAUTY CHATS
(By Blanche Beacon.)
THICK LIPS.

have noticed a growing 'fad'' rible fad have preached 50 much about-putting faith in a ''beauty sur geon.''
 Let me tell you of a little friend of mine and her experience
 She was a pretty girl, but her lips were slightly more thick than usual. That is, she thought them thick. In reality, they were a little full, but assuredly very pretty.
 Her family had a wel1-grol1nded horror of beauty doctors, and so my little friend took the occasion while visiting a friend in another city, to go to a beauty hospital and have her lips made smaller. The "sur- geon'' assured her that it would be what he termed partial operation and would be very simple.
 His method consisted of injecting a burning astringent which, he assured her. would contract the f1eshy cells and cause the lipus to shrink.
 But results were slow in coming. Indeed, at the allotted hour, when she was supposed to be 'beautfful'' and the possessor of new lips" her mouth was. except for the burning and twitching caused by the astringent the same as ever.
 
 her visit The doctor coaxed her to submit to a real ''operation'' and, in desperation she consented
 In very unhygienic "operating room," attended by a nurse in a smudgy apron, my friend was oper- ated upon. Her lips were slit and portions of the flesh removed. Then they were sewed together. Any idiot ought to know better than to suppose that stitches taken in the flesh would not leave their scar. But this silly little girIbnever thought of that.
 Infection set in, due, no doubt to the unsanftary Operating room'' and instruments. Her lips puffed out ard blood poisoning set in. For weeks she could only drink liquids through a tube. When a reputable physician took her in hand and removed the stitches. her mouth was twisted hope less1y- She is hideous now. but she has learned a lesson and has taught her lesson to many others.

 No doubt the general run of hus- bands are well meaning and consider it their duty to bend their every ei- fort to provide handsomely for thelr families and to lay by a goodly DOT ton, as well, for them. Such men become so engrossed in their business pursuits that they overlook the fact that the loved ones at home have a claim upon their leisure hours AS some men accumulate wealth tnSy gradually grow away from the family influence In the days when they were poor, the wife looked forward 10 the evenings, when, after the dinner dishes, after their frugal meal was cleared away, she could sit with her husband, discussing their future plans. With the coming of riches the farn1Iy rarely dimes alone. There is no op- portunity for the family little heart to-heart talks, which are so dear to every member of the household. Ar ter dinner, there is an hour or two of pleasant conversation: then they take their departure.
 It is but the edge of the evening. The husband rushes off to his club, or perhaps to keep a business engage ment. His wife is disappointed. She expected that he would remain at home that evening at least. The worn-out excuse of ia matter of bus mess on hand'' fails to satisfy her. She has a husband, yet no husband to depend on when she wants him by her side. Some say that a wonan's ton- g11e is her weapon. Others say it is her pride. But such a, wife will de- clare it is useless when she has no one to talk to.
 MEN FIND FAULT
 WITH THEIR WIVES without understanding the need of their hearts for companionship. They talk a good deal about their wives go- ing to bridge parties without seeming to realize if they did not introduce some brightness into their everyday lives, existence would be dull it would scarcely be worth while.
