Each on it's own strict line we move, And some wait years ere they find
 love,
 So far apart their lives are thrown
 From the twin soul that halves their
 own;
 And sometimes, by still harder fate. The lovers meet, but meet too late handsomely dressed woEnen.- robbed an her swishing silks and costly furs, with jewels worth a kings rensom sparkling in her ears and on her un- gIoved hands which her luxurious huff half concea1s, that she is the magnet of acute temptation to hungry. home less women, starving on the streets for crust of bread or a place to lay their head. She swings her mesh purse heavy with shining gold, which shows through it as she steps from a shop to her carriage. She draws her skirts away from the, poor little child beg Eing for a penny. Unfortunate women look after her with darkening brows. Her purse or huff falls from her hands. They are quickly returned to her, but not so much as a, smile ac- companies her recognition of the re- turn She does not stop to count over the money to see that none is missing The Knowledge that she is honest is the only reward that the starving wo- man gets for her pains.
 There's another class which the rich Addressed woman attracts who do not let her off quite so easily-t1e profes- isiona1 bag-OpeueFs, the clever female purloiners of other peoples wealth. They see the costly huff and swinging bag and mark the foolish, vain woman who is out for 6 show as their victim. l They follow ni1ady from shop to shop, sometimes to a half dozen differ 1 ent places ere they succeed in getting a place next to her without attracting her attention. When she lays her fat purse down on the counter that is the crucial moment. In a trice the profess siona1 purse snatcher has thrown some swift as a flash, dropped it in her own capacious pocket, moving as stealthily away as a shadow.
 Women have no right to robe them selves conspicuosly in costly attire on shopping tours, to engender bitterness and encourage daring crime at the hands of the interruptions, The veal thfest of women, if they have good sense, dress the plainestt
 Elegant attire has it's place at a friends reception, an evening affair, or at ones own home. But it was never more out of place than on the public streets, touching elbows with the poor and suffering, as well as the wicked and avaricious, who are evilly in clined. Such women are a temptation and a menace to those who have noth- ing. Mi1ady may never have faced 9 court of justice. She has only herself to blame if she is forced to face a thief who had adroitIy relieved her of her valuaables. Women of wealth who come from small places to shop in the big cities should heed the warning that they should dress plainly and wear no valualbIes. Better give a, starving child a little aid than spend dollars for costly flowers for her cor sage, which will wfther in an hour. Avoid tempting others by overdisp1ay.

ONLY HEARTS COUNT.
Dear Miss Libbey:

Ann a young girl of eighteen; have been keeping company with a young man the past six months. He is a very nice young, man, three years my senior. He is feet tall I am feet 4 inches tall Miss Lib1ey, should I not go with him on this account? Some think I should not, because he is smaller than I ann He is well and strong and I think much of him. Please advise me what to do.
 v. M. It is only hearts that count It does not make any difference as to height providing you love one another. Few if any couples care which is taller or. smaller so long as love Is in their hearts.
