Love may go a-wanderlng for a time

My advice to you is to cultivate your

would not let n silly bit OF gossip come

attachment could have sprung up between
you In so short time. and the better

Variety Is a Spice,
for Love
BY BEATRICE FAIRFAX.

The wild hawk to the wind-swept sky,
the bee to the opening clover,
And the heart OF a man to the heart OF a
maid-ever the wide world over;
Ever the wide world over, lass; ever the
trail holds true;
over the world and under the world. and
oack at the last to you. -Sipling.
Though love may go a-wandering for a
while, he comes home at last There is
a homing instinct in all hearts that bids
them return to true love and the place
that is home, however far they may
stray
IL only jealous women could remember
thisl If only the wife who eats out her
heart because her husband has interests
and friendships in which she has no part.
could bide patiently and keep the hearth
fire lighted to give a sign of welcome at
the Homecoming!
No one must be so meek and mean
spirited as to patiently endure cruel neg
lect But everyone must recognize the
fact that Nature has constituted many OF
us so that variety and change are prime
necessities of life.
One of the cleverest women know in
sIsts that her husband go on a camping
trip each summer with some Of the men
who were his cronies in bachelor days.
She, herself, goes to her home in a dis
tant city twice year and stays fort
night. After each such visit, she and her
husband return 10 each other with new
interests to stimulate their affection.
Perhaps this Is not practicable in every
case-perhaps not every married couple
can afford to take these little jaunts. But
no one is too poor to allow for few in
terests outside of the home.
What applies to wives applies to sweet
hearts. Jealousy, naggng a continuous
demand on the time OF a loved one, may
seem for a while a mere expression of a
devotion so great that it can not bear
separation. After a time this is sure to
become irksome.
However fond you are OF peaches OF
OF strawberries. you surely appreciate
them the more because they are in season
only part of the year. Spring is all the
lovelier because II follows winter. A day
OF golden sunshine has an added charm
because Of storms that have come before
and may come after.

mony. Change is a wise ingredient to

doors are barred to her, because conven-
ton has decreed that goung girls must not
roam about the world alone, and whether
you like it or not, convention makes the

Also, the young girl who does not live

wicked and unprnclpled man to stalk.
