smiling faith of child, she hid him
in her heart. For a while she held
him close, bravely bringing to her
quivering lips a smile to cover the
pain Of the many hurts he gave her,
until one morning she awoke to find
that which she had been clasping so
tightly was not love, but illusion,
who had dressed himself up in loves
radiant garments.
That day all her girlhood slipped
from her and left her a woman-a
woman who still had the feminine
longing for love, but with a cynical
disbelief in its existence.
For a time she tried to make
friendship take the place of love, and
although the cOmpanionship was
very sweet, yet there was always
something lacking.
Once and again lust came knock
ing at her heart under the guise of
love, but her eyes had been opened
and she was not deceived. Vainly
she searched. Her mouth grew stern
in it's longing; her eyes became sad
dened and wistful, as at times the
thought came to her that she might
never find him.
At last when faith, trust and hope
were dead she turned away from her
weary quest and said, 81 will look no
more, love is not It never was, only
to the dreamers did it ever come. A
creature born of the brain in answer
to the hearts longings. I will not
give my whole life seeking what is
not"
Then she set about trying to make
others see that which they called love
was but lust or fancy clothed in the
soft draperies of imagination. Each
day she tore off the beautiful trap
pings and exposed to the blind wor-
shippers the weary face of safety.
But, it came to pass that just as
she was sure that love was not, had
never beeD would never be she
The day book. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1911-1917, 1916-05-18

This morning my little nurse hand
ed me another manuscript. 1t was
a beautiful poem that I could see was
born in her heart and its sad eXpe-
Tiences.
l wish l could show it to Pat! He
certainly would ask her to write
something that he might publish.
She called her little aIlegory ANY
Woman"
Once upon a time there was born
into the world of stern reality a wom-
an child, whose fate had been de-
creed by malignant fairy.
"She shall go through the world
seeking love" was the sentence. and
it shall come to pass that when at
last she shall find it, with the bless
ing will come the awful knOwl-
edge that what to other women
might be a crown Of glory is to her
only an agOnizing wound to be COW
cred from the unsympathizing world.
Not knowing of the terrible curse
with which her life was blighted, the
child grew to girlhOOd. She was
solitary bit of a lass, out of whose
pale little face the brown eyes looked
dreamily, trustfuIly, into the future.
The sensitive mouth cUrled up at
corners with happiness, for the
world seemed full of love. She saw
it in the green traceTy Of the trees
overhead; she inhaled its fragrance
from the flowers she pinned upon her
breast; she heard it in the song of the
bird calling it's mate; she felt it in
the kiss of the balmy summer breeze.
81 shall only have to put out my
hand to grasp it, she muTmuTed. 1T
is here all about me, the whole earth
hears it melody and my life unison
with its song"
She thought much of this great
blessing that was coming to her, and
in her innocent daily prayers was al
ways a petition for the grace and
bealItv that would make her worthy
