this subjects cosmos is POISE.
She has confidence, verve. more
than ordinary intelligence and
zeal.
If properly considered and
trained for the next four years
she has a career. Just what d.
reetion this will lie In depends
upon her own choice and the en-
vironment In which she lives.
She has nearly all the ele-
ments that are stepping stones 10
success i'm literature, music, art
and possibly the stage.
This subject should not be too
eager to strike out into the world
for herself-not until she is at
least twenty years ola. She has
rich promise of a eareer-the
shoals are the tendency to be too
trusting of others, too prone to
bestow confidence and affection,
too ready to enter into things
without due caution and temper
ate consideration.

BY PSYCHIC.

BY PSYCHIC.
This photograph is of a girl
about Is years old. She is the
child of poor parents.
The subject is far and above
the average American girl. She
shows by the mouth, the cast
of the eyes and the well modelled
nose a tendency to be easily in
fluenced by others. This unfor-
tunate strain is about evenly bal
anced, however, by determine
ton to overcome this fault.
AMBITION VS.. JUDGMENT.
The subject is inclined to be
too ambitious and later on will
be inclined to use rather unfor-
tunate judgment in weighing the
intentions and designs of others.
This again shows the power of
influence of other minds. The
subjects strong chin but some
what weak Exceedingly femin-
incl mouth indicate a rather ex-
traordinary temperament. The
subjects ancestry, partly Ger
man, partly Austrian and partly
French, should WELD a good in

fluence in material affairs. This
subject, however, Is the type that
sacrifices any and all natural
prospects for love. The subject
is the closest to the true Sapphric
type that has come under my OBJ
servation in all of the photo
graphs submitted.
A CAREER ROMISED.
Determination is strongly
marked in the subjects face,
however, and even an early mar
riage would not interfere with
her predestination although it
would undoubtedly delay it's
achievement.
The subject would probably
find a career in music or art or
more likely in letters. She would
fail in pursuits demanding close
application to such activities as
political economy, astronomy,
teaching or medicine.
The subject is intensely posi-
tive in feminine traits. She will
mature very early. A marriage
with a MATERIAL man would be
extremely unfortunate, both for
the subject and for the man she
married. Her ideal affinity, IL l
may use that much-abused word,
would be a person OF marked
temperament, an extremist and
a sentimentalist.
This subject would be intense
ly unhappy in a SORDID or a
MATERIAL atmosphere.

she came back and said. impuls-
lively: Aunt Mary, have
come to the conclusion that. in
stead of multiplying happiness
into ecstaey and dividing unhappi-
ness into infinitesimal factions,
marriage is a sort of compulsory

She looked at me uncompre-
hendingly and said: 'Margie,

in an unused drawer in Johns

IL was a picture postcard and
bore this inscription:
"All to myself, l think of you;

/ sigh, sometimes
smile,

Aunt Mary through a mist OF
tears, but she was smiling.

wonderful pleasure of being "a

other day that nothing in this

terrible experiences a woman
must pass through to reach that
conclusion. l thought of the
bitter tears she must have shed
before she came to understand
that they were useless either as
a method of reaching her desires
or as a manner of working off
surplus emotional stress.
Mrs. Selwin has certainly had
some history that she does not
tell to the world for no woman
could be as absolutely a law unto
herself and a column of strength
to those about her as she is, with
out passing through more than
the joys and rose-lined paths of
life. These experiences have left
her cold. Her sympathy is of
that aloof kind which tells you
never mind. you'll feel better by

~Q.-I am coming TO you
with a long story. but Will
try and make IL short as
possible.
A girl OF over twenty,
quiet and sensitive. has lived
most of her life at home,
assoeiating but little with
other young people. Her
parents being very strict,
she has been denied the
pleasures that rightly belong
to her.
Two years ago, she kept
company with a boy of her
.own age. He was courteous
and gentlemanly. taking
always to the best shows
and places of amusement.
They fell in love. The boy,
/ suppose thinking the girl
rather thoughtless and ig-
norant, commenced to treat
her in an ungentlemanly
way, telling her things
that accompany only evil
thoughts.
The girl being a good
girl. was surprised and
shocked at his behavior.
The next day she was in a
frenzy. She wouldn't have
him disrespect her. With
regret and modification she
wrote him a letter spelling
hate from word to word.
He had been terribly taken
back at receiving IL, offering
no other explanation but
that he loved her dearly"
but she wouldn't have it;
she waited for an apology.
but It came not, so ended
their dreams. their confiden-
tial eomradeship and love.
Last winter. they started
to go together again, she
happily thinking that he
was going to apologize and
more; as he did not, she re-
fused him the second time
he offered her his company,
although it brought tears
and unhappiness.
She never mentions the
mfsunderstandi but al
ways speaks well OF him. Did
she make a mistake in writ
ing that letter? She feels
very badly about 1t, and
wants to apologize, but
doesn't want to do SO be-
fore he sees his mistake
and regrets. Which is more
to blame, the boy or the
girl? l want your advice
and opinion. What would
you want the girl to do?

And if we believe that those who have left us
have still the power to observe doings we must
believe that it is our hearts, not clothes, that
they will read"
1t seems entirely meet that such reaction
should take place against the type of mourning
with which are all familiar, the extreme type
which foregoes taste in seeking conspicuousness.
But the quiet sort of mourning, which, by the sim
plenegaton of color in Dress has its object and
effect to make the mourner' the very reverse Of
conspicuous - such mourning like every other
touch of ceremonial in matters of the heart, has
legitimate place in human lfe Genuine emotion
whether of joy, of religious exaltion, or of grief
demands some outward manifestations. Extrava-
CANT display of it simply spells self-conscious-
ness But so does its complete repression.

Ed COLLINS HAS NOT
SIGNED WITH FEDERALS
Second Baseman Merely Had Talk
With Ward of
Brooklyn.

PHILADELPHIA. Pa, June 1s.-Nei-
Their Eddie Collins nor any other member
of Connie Mack's Athletics has signed
with the Federal League. This was es
tablished last night. However, there was
little or no assurance given that they
would not cast their fortunes with the
so-called outlaw organization at some
future date Those said to be concerned
in jumping to the Federal ranks are Ed
die Collins, second baseman; Home Rum
Baker, third baseman, and John (Stuffy)
Mcinnis, first baseman, and veteran
pitcher, whose name has not been made
public.
In a telegram received here from Chi
cage Eddie Collins admitted that Fed
eral League agents have approached him
and asked him for his terms. 1t is be-
lieved Collins named $4,000 year for
three years. OF course, with the money
positively guaranteed. While Collins does
not mention this in his message. 1t has
come from an authoritative source.
Collins brands any rumor to the effect
that he has signed contract as being
false. AS he expressed it: II merely had
talk with Mr.. Ward Of the Brooklyn
Federal League club but nothing definite
was said or done"
This is the second time Collins has been
approached by Federal League agents.
Last winter he turned down an offer OF
$50 600 for three years to jump to the
Federals.
other Athletic players who now admit
they have been approached have taken
the same stand as Collins. 4
