Side Talks
NOT AFRAID LOVE
(By Ruth Cameron.

There are some people in this
world for whom l care more than they
for me.
There are other people who q
think care more for me than I for
them.
And / am not ashamed of the first
fact and do not see why they should
be ashamed of the second.
And yet there are a great many peo.
pie are ARE ashamed if they feel
more friendship or love for any other
than that other for them.
She Is Proud That She Never Makes
the Overtures
If, on the other hand, they find tina
they are more important to someone
than he or she to them, they swell
with pride. l know woman whose
proudest boast it is that none of her
friends are really necessary to her,
and that when any misunderstanding
occurs, 1t is they who always make
the first overtures, because she never
will
1t is beautiful thing to love.
And by love, of course, I do not
mean merely man and woman love,
but all kinds of affection.
That's the Trouble With Some Un-
healthy Little Souls.
The more love you can feel, the bet
ter for you. Love is an exercise for
the soul. The trouble with many un-
healthy little souls is that they don't
have enough exercise.
If you let other people do more than
their share of the loving, it is you
not they, who will suffer most.
OF course 1t would be ideal IL love
always answered love, that is If the
individual to whom we feel drawn al.
ways felt equally drawn to us.
But apparently that cannot be. Per-
haps as the centuries pass and the
world grows better, and we get into
more perfect tune with the infinite,
that will be one of the happy adjust
ments. And surely it's going to be
that way in the next lige.
Loving and Exacting are Different
Things.
We were talking about this subject
the other day and someon said: "But
haven't you ever been bored by some
one you didn't care far, and who in
sisted on absorbing your time and at
tention? Wouldn't you hate to bore
anyone else that way? That's what
makes me afraid to care more for
others than they for me-"
"You needn't be afraid" said. "For
loving people doesn't mean imposing
yourself upon them. I'd never be
The Lakeland evening telegram. (Lakeland, Fla.) 1911-1922, 1916-12-02

ashamed to love anyone ten times as
much as they loved me. but I'd be
ashamed to try to exact of them the
least bit of affection or time that they
could not freely give"
/ To love is one thing. To exact is
quite another.

aud, having made il, of being rec
ognized as having just such a DO
sition in society, no more and no
less.
OF course, little book, I did not
go over all this yesterday when
was talking to Pat, but the won
derful thing about you is that
can go wandering over any realm
of thought that the subject I have
begun to write about seems to in
spire and you do not seem bored
or ask me to get back to the real
matter in hand.
OF course, Pat, being in love
with a trained nurse, thinks the
whole profession is little better
than any other body of women,
but he submitted more or less
gracefully when / told him that
only by making the heroine of my
story trained nurse could | ac-
count for their falling in love in
plausible fashion.
"Then," / continued, "the boy
as soon as possible gets out and
sees the little nurse. He tells her
that his parents object, but as
they never had refused him any
thing he was quite sure he would
be able to bring them over. So
sure of this is he that he insists
she shall go and furnish a little
apartment for them to live in
after marriage.
He also arrapges with the
credit man at his fathers store
that anything she buys there shall
be charged to him.
1.-THE girl does this all in good
faith and the little apartment be-
gin to look like home. In the
meantime, the boy does not sue
coed in making his parents con-
sent to his marriage.
They become aware of the
apartment, but not before the
boy has told the girl that 1t will
take longer than he thought to
get their consent, and at the little
home they have made she gives
herself to him in faith and love,
for as he says In his boyish FASH
ion, we may as well be happy
while waiting
Then will come the great de-
movement and the tragedy"

to give the best of herself to some
one who Is unworthy of her."
Alice glided into the room at
this point and after greeting Pat
sat down at foot of the be dbe-
hind him. He turned somewhat
uneasily and tried to sit where he
could see her face, but she kept
herself In such a position that he
could not do this.

continued, land will make her a
young and pretty trained nurse. +"
"Oh, don't do that, Margie, +"
said Pat earnestly. Cant you
put her in any other kind of bust
ness? The work of trained
nurse seems kind of sacred to me.
So much of It is just giving one
self to the alienation of suffer-
ing"
There came a little sigh from
Alice. and / noticed that she put
out her hand little way as
though to touch Pat.

to stop turning up my nose.
RUTH.
Alt is literally impossible
ito turn up your nose" but you
can assume a disdainful express
sion by means of one Of four
muscles which control the nose.
One muscle acts ON the upper lip
as well as the nOstrils, and ii is
much used by actors to produce
powerful and otter painful ex-
pressiOns. Another muscle causes
the nOstrils to CULVER and dilate.
Ordinary persons use this uncOn-
sciOusly when under great ex-
citement. Some persons raise one
nostril as habit, producing a
half amused expression. Others
can depress the tip of the nose
thus producing an expression Of
anxiety. Watch the moving pic
lures for these various facial ex-
pressiOns.
