No. 4-The Traits in Girl that Men Like
w GRACE DARLING.


The Charming Young American Moving
Picture Star.
Copyright 1916. International News Service.
One Of the most pathetic things in the
world are the near-seniuses-the people
who have some spark of talent that
raises them bit above the ordinary, but
that is not strong enough to blaze up
into the fire OF success.
They can write Iittle-just enough to
have gotten a story or a poem published
in some obscure paper. They can paint
a little-just enough to sell a few dinner
cards or Christmas cards. They can sing
or act little-just enough to shine In
amateur theatricals. or get an encore at
the church socisble.
But that little Is enough to make them
think that they are going to set the river
on fire with their genius, and so they
go on struggling and striving, year after
year. trying to do something that they
can't do. and getting poorer. and shah
bier and hungrier all the time.
These near-geniuses never make good,
who can never sell their stories or their
pictures. or get position, fill the outer
offices OF newspaper. and magazine, and
theatrical offices. and moving pictures.
and they are the most forlorn sight in
any great city.
l have seen so many OF these near
geniuses that I want to entreat you girls
who have talent not TO waste II. OF
course l believe In trying and in never
giving up. but Il after long period and
consistent effort you discover that no
editor will accept your stories no maga-
zins will buy your pictures no theatrical
man will give you place in a road
company. no moving picture director will
give YOU a try-out, why, make up your
mind that you have chosen the wrong
calling. and try something else.
There are so many of the trades now
where the artistic touch can find profit
able outlook. II only YOU are willing to
do the commonplace things OF life WELL
instead of doing the unusual things badly.
/ The girl who hasn't got enough imagin-
/ alton TO write sixth best seller, for In
stance. may have enough inspiration to
see what would make a catchy adver-
tisement for a department store.
In the last two years we have seen
girls who had not the skill to become
high priced stage dancers coming money
teaching women and men the fox trot,
and many girl is traving trying TO be
an artist might make fortune it she
would so into the dressmaking or mil
\ linery business.
There she could make her feeling for
color and her sense of line and form pay
royal dividends. for while the market
for pictures is. at least. small one, the
demand for more beautiful hats and
gowns grows bigger year by year.
| II you have talent. girls. thank God
for It. but don't be misled into thinking
that penny candle of ability is an arc
light OF genius. Try to compare your
work dispassionately with the work Of
master minds, and abide by the de-
cision. Don't let your vanity misled you
into thinking that you can DO things that
you never can do,

Is Wonsam's LoUe
Stronger9

The great distinction between the daut-
itv NJ the two sexes lies in the different
powers of concentration. Their hearts
are touched by a certain woman. their
affections respond to the vibrations seen
in motion by her affinity which claims
a responsive clement; but underneath all
this their real, ordinary work-a-day per
sonality is seldom touched.
Their love Is probably sincere enough;
but interningled as IL Is with business
cares, masculine friends and sports the
iOl odd things go TO make up the ordinary
bachelors life, 1t by no means occupies
their existence. and it may truly be said
of even the most devoted of men that
they seldom allow their own personality
be shadowed or engulfed by their af-
fections.
There is an element Of selfishness, more
or less. in all men. and at times the de-
tePminations not to fall, or the thought
OF a possible rival are more important
factors in a mans wooing than the actual
love. itself.
To sum up charitably. men love princi-
pally with the other shell OF their per
sonality, sincere enough, but inter
mingled with so many other personal
elements that 1t is kept pretty much in
the background. and only called into
actual being as occasion requires.
Women on the other hand with the
exception OF the few passionless. cold
bloOded individuals who never realize the
meaning and reality OF true love- respond
whole-heartedly TO the tide of affections.
They lovo passionately. with heart, soul
and brain. II takes possession of their
whole being to the exclusion OF all else.
II is the keynote OF their existence. DOM
iAates both thought and action. and so,
is proportion TO the fate meted out to
them, they sorrow or rejoice.
II may be a more erratic, sentimental
affection than that OF men: but when
men love truly. they are apt to love To
excess, allowing no margin for a middle
course either winding up on an elevated
ISftform Of JOY or sinking into an abyss
F3of despair
Love Is at once the bestower OF the
greatest 10y and the most exquisite pain.

seems changed. the sun is brighter. the
