Love Is such a mystery
I cannot find 1t out
For when l think I'm best beloved
| then am most in doubt"
The cleverest girls are those who
blunder most In their love affairs.
The girl who Is not so alert Is apt to
believe that all a young man tells her
is the gospel truth. With the clever
girl, it's his actions, not his words,
that count; though he may tell her
that she is his ideal in one breath and
ask carelessly in the next who the
girl was he met her with yesterday,
she is shrewd enough not to put ere.

she quite sure Of him. AS for that
matter, no woman is quite sure Of a
man until she steps to the altar with
him. Many a girl thinks because she

quite willing that he should coax her
into good humor. There Is limit,
however, to the patience of the best
of men. When he has reached that
stage he might balk over the merest
trife. The upshot of the matter Is
they agree to disagree and go their
separate ways. Nor can the wife OF
a mans bosom expect to continue to
scatter her husbands opinions at all
times to the winds and to do as she
pleases, The best Of husbands will

Even a mother Is not quite sure OF
what her own son will do. She may
be intensely anxious that he shall mar

which she moves. He may lose his
heart to the pretty shopgirl who sells
him gloves and marry her after the
short whirlwind courtship. A father
may work all Of his life and scrape
and save in building up a business.
The hope which he hugs to his bosom
for years Is that he is laying a foun-
dation Of his boys future career; that
he will take the reins out of his hands
when he is ready to lay them down.

No parent can be sure Of even his
own SON THAT kind Of life wouldn't

none of It, It's too slow! An aero
plane for me and the life that goes
with it." The girl who has over-con-
fidence in her best fellow, asking him
to escort home this girl friend or that
one when they happen to call upon
her, often sends forth her ship Of love
upon treacherous sea. If the lover,
like the ship, returns to her no more,
she has learned her lesson; after that
experience she let's her women friends

his thoughts may turn slowly to some
other girl whom he knows that is al
