"a man friend OF mine says that love

affection and love are the same thing
Now / like a great many people, but do

jealousy. Won't you explain the matter
TO me?" writes Edith.
What is lover is a question that has
been asked almost ever since the world
began. The answers to II are about as
numerous as are the individuals that
populate the earth. Even the ideals OF
love differ according to climate. race
and creed. A very clever man recently
said to me, Love Is a matter OF geog-
raphy." Love is a matter OF all sorts
of externals, which 1t would be hard TO
define. But in the ideal state love ough'

very definite things.
First of all, love ought to be unselfish
and seldom Isl Real love ought TO con

the Druids had established inside the hol-

What Is Love?

from II. 1t is jealous. exacting, fever
ishly unhappy in itself. and all too likely
to produce a similar effect in the person
It honors with its dangerous devotion.
Love ought to be honest. congenial
friendship, plus healthy. normal human
emotion II has been defined as friend
ship plus flowers and veil."
Emotion is not a thing to be despised
or hidden. IT is beautiful, human ex-
preston that too many OF us pervert by
constant usage.
John meets a charmingly attractive
young girl; she appeals TO his senses and
| he imagines he loves her. He goes ex-
| cltedly whirlng through an amorous adj
venture he calls love affair. He de-
mands loyalty and devotion, and since he
! cannot command them through faith and
| trust and well balanced congenial attrac-
| ton. he is miserably jealous and suffers,
! and causes all sorts Of doubts.
I Neither John nor his charmer knows
/ anything about love. They are having
facile, feverish affair IN which youth
is calling to youth and emotion is ex-
pressing itself without a background of
understanding and respect and con-
| geniality to make II worth while
True love longs to give happiness. IT
believes in the kindly intentions of its
beloved; It has faith when all the evil
dence points TO unfaith. II has sympathy
for pain: tenderness for weakness; hope
for strength and. above all, the splendid
desire TO be fine and worthy, and 10 make
life more worth while because It has
come into It,
Love knows how much more blessed II
IT to give than 10 receive. Love Il
gracious and long-suffering. Love takes
on the interests Of its beloved II casts
out jealousy and doubt and bitterness
and all harsh judgment. II does oil thess
things IL II Is ideal love -tne sort We al
long for and do patheticslly little to de.
serve.
There is one thing we all owe to love-
that is nigh ideal Of It. and ideal that
will keep Us from accepting cheap imita,

be worthy OF the promised land We car
vision and may enter u we choose.

GARRETT r. sERVIss

The individuality of trees is a very in
teresting subject. They are living beings
as much as animals are. II is an ancient
notion that trees may possess sort OF
self-consciousness comparable with that
o. the lower animals.
Perhaps neither is aware of itself; but,
on the other hand. perhaps both are, In
some dim was. There are persons who,
seeing a great tree cut down and falling
with a groan," cannot avoid a certain
shrinking sensation. 1t Is this under
current of feeling-superstItion. If you
will--that lends a high degree OF inter
est to every ancient tree known to have
witnessed famous historical scenes and
events. Such trees seem like living wit
nesses of long past times.
A remarkable instance is the cypress
of Cortez. still living. and carefully pre-
served and guarded, at Popotla, near the
City of Mexico. A recent photograph of
this tree, with its protective railing, is
reproduced herewith. The legend, which
is probably a true one, AYERS that Cortez
sat and wept under this cypress, which
was then already large tree, although
that was nearly 400 years ago, after his
terrible retreat from Montezuma's CAPT
tai, the famous noche triste, might o

lowers were srafn.

in Preseott's History of the Conques

image OF the fearful tragedy that it wit

Those OF a practical mind will prefer

of dull brown, of Belgian blue. rose or

rose-colored stockingette. the skirt on
straight and moderately wide lines and
supplied with trouser-like pockets. which
fasten over with n small reyer and large
pearl buttons The coat is much longer
than the usual suit model, reaching, as
1t does. to the knees. II has pockets OF
the reticule order, hung from the wide
self belt, the latter being attached with
two large buttons and buttonholes directly
In front
OF course II is inevitable that the fur
collar and cuffs should be a part Of the
suit, and in this particular instance the
neck and sleeve finish Is of raccoon, the
collar Of the convertible sort TO be raised
high above the neck or permitted 20 flat

For the girl who prefers a smart trot-
| teur TO a fussy demi-costume. there has
been provided an attractive model with
short swinging skirt and jaurty jacket.
The material Is Burgundy broadcloth and
indicates the skirt cut IN cores with the
alternate pieces shaped in points that give
an irregular edge TO the hem.
The Jacket Is semi-fitting and fastens
way over on the left side. There Ia
no attempt to FIT the front with darts
or pisits, with the result that sort OF
impromptu fold introduces itself across
the waist line which accentuates the deer
cuffs. A feature OF the latter is the pro.
jected cuff OF cloth falling beneath the
fur band and showing a facing OF
Oriental brocade.

Good Son.
Dear Miss Fairfax: I have been going
out with a young man whom love
dearly. Now i am engaged to this young
man, and the only fault l have TO find
Is he seems TO give his mother too much
of her own way In regard TO where he
should 60 and when he should come
home. As he is nearly 30. I think he
should be master OF his own mind;
A man. who at 80. respects his mothers
opinions and wishes will probably not be
tyrannical and overlooking in his atti-
tude toward his wife. Don't try TO cure
your fisnce Of his habit of kindness. gen.
tleness and chlvalry. His wife will reap
| the benefit of his consideration for his
mother. and must ever be grateful TO
that mother for training so good a son.
