LOVE Is never BLIND
Little God May Do Strange
Things, but His Eyesight Is
of the Best.

ID EFORE Miriam became engaged to
e marry Fred she had heard much
and read more about love Love"
is this; love" is that; love" is the
other thing. Love" gives ALL love"
demands sacrifices; love" spells han
piness; love" means misery, and SO
on through long list OF possible and
impossible conditions.
Being a perfectly normal man, Fred
had certain faults.
Some Of them were glazing, but Mir
lam, If she saw them at all, forgave
them because she loved him.
A friend said: Miriam, don't see
how you can endure Fred. He's SO
full of faults. But l suppose love Is
blind and you don't notice his short
eomings."
Then it was that Miriam consulted
Aunt Anna.
Is love blind, auntie, dear?" said
she. Or does 1t give one an insight
into the real charm and goodness I'M
seen by others?"
That depends. child, upon the kind
of love, and also upon the individ-
ual.
Surely from the many insists, the
many unsuitable matches we see. I
am inclined to say that love is not
only blind, but deaf and dumb as we'll.
You remember, my dear Jim Mer-
lin, an avowed worshiper of beauty.
married Ellen Short. one of the home.
lest girls in the village.
perfect frights-coarse, ignorant men
and one scarcely can pick up a pa
per but one sees a story of an heiress
clipping with a chauffeur or groom, a
boy marrying a woman old enough to
be his grandmother, or a sweet young
debutante selling herself to the an
cient millionaire"
1T seems to me the only way we
can account for these vagaries of senti-
ment is that Cupid has suddenly been
struck blind, or a long-distance tele-
scope enables him to see charms and
projections in individuals that are quite
invisible to the rest of the world" re-
piled the younger
Miriam, you have often said of your
own friends: I cannot tell what on
earth she sees in that man to love;
he's such an impossible person No
doubt some OF your friends say the
same thing of you and Fred.
Thus we go on bordering over this
mystery Of love-love that comes with
out invitation, and sometimes goes we
know not where.
i think, dear, the truth Of the mat
ter Is that love between a man and
woman is purely a matter of attrac-
ton, and that neither eyesight nor
Judgment plays any part whatever.
We love or we hate by instinct. Il
is not a matter Of head, but of the
heart.
"A woman may observe in a man
every admirable quality, yet she can
not love him; yet the man who DOS
sesses many faults which she plainly
sees may win her love without even
trying to.
Men, you know, are curious ami
mails. One may pass by a woman who
Is endowed with all the virtues. the
accomplishment and the charm OF
femininity, yet will marry a crude lit
tie butterfly of fashion with no claim
either to good looks or wisdom"

MINES
Is Now the Motto of the Coal
Operators in the State of
West Virginia.

CHARLESTON, Jan. $50 pleased
are the coal operators of West VIZ
ginia at the showing made in 1913
by the mines of this state, in the
matter of fatalities, that they are
taking steps toi make an even better
record in the year 1914. They hope
that, since 1918 brought forth the
most creditable showing in five
years, tlifs year wt4l be the best
S nee 1895, which is as far back as
the records go.
The good fatality record for 1913
has brought TO light the fact that 1t
was, in no small measure, due to the
inspections of mines made four
times month in many of the elds
at the direction, of the operators.
This extra inspection was not
made because of any notion on the
part of the operators that the state
inspectors we're not doing their
work we'll "A careful investigation
shows that the contrary was true.
B41t the operators wanted inspections
more frequently than the state ln-
spectors could make them, so that IL
dangerous conditions should arise
suddenly. needless sacrifice Of life
could be prevented.
The result of this extra inspection
has been that in many cases men
have been kept out Of the mines for
a while when air was found unsat-
igfactory, where if they had gone IN,
it is likely some of them would have
been killed. or seriously injured.
How effective the extra inspection

assertion that there was doubt as to
whether the Fourth street bridge
would he a concrete one and it re
moves that doubt and fully meets
that objection.
The only other reason advanced for
delay was that the street car com
