SAYS TRUE LOVE COMES OFTEN.

In the February Woman's Home
Companion Evelyn Gill Klahr writes a
story entitled Love Everlasting" The
story is about husband and wife who
have quarreled and parted and it con-
tains many theories and sentiments
about the stability of love. A friend of
the wife, a rather cynical woman,
comments on love as follows:
Take all the things you were alb
solutely sure of in connection with
love, all that one-man-jp-the-world
business, for instance. It's sheer rub
bish. There are dozens and dozens
that each individual woman could love.
Just dozens! Why, I've been in love
with several myself, only each time
there was a new one I persuaded my
self that the others weren't real! But
they were. They were real enough
And yet In the face of my own ex-
perience, and my fathers too, for
had seen how he had adored both my
own mother and my step-mother-in
the face of it all, kept on believing
that one-man-in-the-world business.
oh, for ages I believed it! And an
other thing Every young fool in love
is absolutely certain that the rapture
is permanent, that they are always
going to thrill and SILVER at the sight
of the loved ones eyes or voice or
penmanship. Isn't it silly? Because
it can't last. 1t may turn to calm af-
lection or indifference or even hate,
but that rapturous glamour simply
cannot endure"

These blasts will be blown one min- Ute apart.

There was more joy and jubilatien at hundreds of homes ill the city, and perhaps there was the most joy and jubilation experi- enced by the managers and clerks at the Hotel Pines, because the Pines has been put to the adoption of ex- treme measures, and has been with out elevator service, since the gas supply failed.
