love begins to ebb his attitude
toward its object becomes carp
ing and critical
He neglects, snubs. sights. wounds,
sCorns torments and almost insults his
late sweetheart by his bored indiffer-
ence, and she, when writing to me "
his changed attitude. is such a meeN
little worm in the dust that she inva-
riably concludes her letter with this
plant: Il love him. and l cant give
him up"
She doesn't know what love is. The
love that meekly endures insults is not
love. 1t is the sentiment of the cring-
ing slave. A girl who will tamely ac-
cept taunts and abuse and reproaches
from her lover doesn't merit better
treatment She deserves a husband
who will make her tremble when ne
lifts a finger, and that is just the sort
of a future she is cutting out for her-

There isn't anything due these girls

They would kiss the hand that smites
them. They would hold man against
his wishes, and they would say to him

That, in effect. is what the girl says
who writes Il can't give Rim up and
that in effect is the treat ment she re-
ceives If her humility succeeds in win-
ming the man for a husband.
Every man feels that he is lord II
creation, and the best of them impose

opinion that he is the highest Of God ;

TARCH I've leave for the

think. in a way, we are glad.
Tompkins wants to get back where he
may see an occasional friend; Ricn-
ards is worried because of Manette's
wardrobe. and Manette is experiencing
all a child's eagerness to show her new
friend. Sarah Hartman, the toys that
in child's mind constitute home"
There was a basket filled with soft,
fluffy gray kittens when she left, and
she thinks they will still be kittens
when she returns. l heard her to-

Of the frost-covered cakes the cook

Lost His Ambition.
Father used to say that Mr. Pan
iandrum would have been president Of
the United States except for the fact
that he was born in Newfoundland or
Nova Scotia. or some such country. He
brooded over this misfortune until II
took all the ambition out Of him, and
il does seem a shame that a man must
be barred from the presidency merely
because he wasn't born in this country.
It discourages the better class of immi-
grants. A bright young man over IN
England or Scotland, when he is urged
to come to the United States. Will ask
what's the use since there's no chance
Of being president.
