We Do Not Cherish Grief.

Women are just as devoted daugh-
tiers, just as adoring mothers, just as
loving wives as they ever were, and
when they lose parents, or children,
o. husbands, they are just as grieved
as any woman of the past ever was,
But they no longer make a cult of sor-
row. They no longer sacrifice the liv-
ing to the dead, and instead of parad-
ing their ewoe before the public, they
ride it out of sight and trygto add their
mite of cheerfulness toathe world in
stead of burdening it with their gloom
In other days it was the fashion TO
never recover from any heart affair. If
a man was flirted by pretty coquette,
or a girl was jiltedibg a faithlesa
swain, public sentiment demanded that
he should become a surly misantbrope
who hated all women forever after
and that she should either pine away
with a" broken heart, or else live on, a
sweet, sad spihster Nowadays I We
take an injury to our heart abouS as
seriously as we do pin prick to. our
fingers. It may hurt for the minute,
but we apply a little of the antiaeptic
of some other woman's or man 'stsoci-
ETY. to the spot. and know that BY to-
morrow it will be entirely healed

One feature of modern progress has

cheerful showed you to be light mind

pecially women, were looked upon
with suspicion as being no better than

are several religions, with millions OF
followers, that are based on the cult
of happiness.
For our souls sake and for our
stomachs' sake we are adjured alike
by priest and doctor to think bright
and joyous thoughts and to dwell on
the good in the world instead of the
evil. People with tales of woe to TEL!

men deported from France last year for
crimes of sensual nature had this par

istry which led her to evolve the theory
that every baby's feet are marked win
certain lines and other characteristics
which, If intelligently read. enable one to
forecast accurately what sort of life the
child will lead when it grows up.
Solestry takes into consideration not
only the shape of the toes, heels. etc,
but lays great stress on the lines APP
pearing on the soles.
When the toes increase gradually in
length from the little toe to the big toe
it is a sign that the child will have an
aversion to inflicting pain of any kind
and will not be able to stand the sight or
blood. y high instep denotes self-con-
fidence and a nature leaning toward
pride and haughtiness. If the instep is
low it is a sign of INDIGESTION.
Bent, turned-in toes are always found
in cold, selfish persons who are stingy
and thoughtless of the rights of others.
People who are very eleanly in their
habits and prefer outdoor exercise to
reading and studying have very long
toes. Toes of medium length, which are
at the same time delicate and shapely,
are an indication of highly artistic
temperament
Large heels that extend far back are
found on indolent persons. while an en-
ergetic and careful person has a heel al
most straight and not too thick.
y long middle line running lengthwise
of the sole is the line of the will. If the
will be strong this line will be straight.
If the line is straight, but is broken
directly in half. it is an Indication that
the will is strong, but likely to be seri-
ously broken by love affair.
The line running lengthwise on the
outer edge of the right sole is the line of
passionate love. If this line is long.
straight and strongly marked. It indi-
Gates a person of a passionately affec-
tionate nature. The shorter and less
strongly marked the line is. the smaller
the capacity for love person possesses
If the line is crossed by the smaller
lines which are found beside it, the child
will prove to be person capable of con-
centrating love on several different OBJ

for an exhibition hail. 1t is proposed
if this plan is carried out to conduct
the fair upon entirely different lines
and to make it more of an igrieulr
