 Though 'twere but for a single day '' When young men and women begin 1 to make unpleasant remarks about l not having found aanyone to love them and how impossible life is when they ares unhappy and companion1ess, know that they are getting away from the truth. I fell like having good, sound talk with the first downcast young person run across and telling him or her of having all the chance imaginable. to be loved, courted and married if the right way was only gone about, as Providence intends.
 In the first place. they must not start in to think that romances spring up from f1irtations, coqlietry and a. liking from the first devotee that crosses ones path If the dissatisfied could only get away from this unrea- sonable belief, half the way would be clear to search and find the one love that is pleasing andlto whom the heart goes out to for certainty
 T am not quite sure whether love him or if he truly loves me- is seldom on the lips if thes hearts are in unison, the right chord touched. More than one secret wish is: The one great boon from Heaven I crave is just portion of true love of my own Give me that devoted1y and life would be roseate and complete with hap piness- Is there any chance of this devotion being fulfl1ed2 is the oft re. peated query.
 7s1-.- = f.kr-l s- if the thinking cap is put on If a heart would go oul to you with won derfu1 lasting love. search must be made from where it is possible to win one, Forget the little crosses that you have had: hope for brightness your lonely lot. No matter where you have an opportunity to go, start with a pleasant look on your face, light footstep and seek to beconn e aco ouaint- ed with the good young people who are there to welcome you. You will have pleasant hour or two and many times after you may see the bright faces which beamed into your own while friendship and love, won the day at last
 Make a promise, and keep it. that you will keep devotionss flame bright for a4F- time #s4 47z4aE4a
 Let me give the girls@a timely hint that earnestly want to marry well: Don't take up with a gay. debonair free lance i whom you innocently thought to be just the opposite. You will soon find out his tendencies and. shorter than it takes to tell it, let him slip past you and persevere patiently 1 in searching out newer, different l type Of attraction. The secret is plain. The man who makes a girls ] while being stranger tc her home folks and hiding the past from those who introduce him, sllp- posing that he Is all right, never should make that girl his wife with out undeceiving her as to his wild l oats sowing She knows then whether | she could put confidence in him in the future or whether he would be apt to | lead her a pretty dance and untold | heart grief if she took the chance of wedding him.
 Women who will take their own risks and believe that they can over come any obstacle after marriage. start. after leaving the altar, handi- sspped. Different might have been fate had, they not been easily satis- fed but taken time to have searched for love that they were convinced was worthy of their own.
