Overwhelmed With Invitations.
Mrs. Smith, who had played the
inspired" bridge, begged her to
save August" Tor her. she had
taken a cottage at the North
Shore. Someone else entreated
her to go on a motoring trip, and
a camp in the Adirondacks would
be a rank failure without her
presence. The summer, it ap-
peared, would be a very economi-
cal season for our old schoolmate.
My conclusion in regard to her
was that she saw life in the terms
OF a salad, and that her recipe
called for oil, more oil, and then
some more. II there was any
vinegar added to Louise's famous
dressing, no one could detect It
We noticed that she accepted
none Of the invitations for the
summer, and that her eye rested
favorably on a certain very eligible
man, some eight or ten years
younger than she. Could It be pos
sible than she was going to marry
him? Before our call was over.
1t was plain to us by the happy
man, that this was so.

the tears OF childhood and the
thirst for sympathy Of early
youth She was cheerful and she
remembered the most charming
things Of all Of us. She remem-
bered all our good points, too,
which had the beautiful complex
ion, which the curly hair, which
played well enough to adorn the
concert stage, and very delicately
she insinuated each had kept
these gifts.
There was nothing suggestive
of trowel work about her way Of
saying gracious things, it was as
delicate as an old pastel drawing.
We may have had our own mis-
givings, but it was distinctly
pleasant and agreeable.
On Good Terms With Yourself.
There was nothing as gross as
hattery, about her methods, a
fine appreciation more nearly con-
veys the effect it produced, and
the rather hostile schoolmate
jury began to beam, that it had
made such a success of life.
While we were there, several
men called-officers she had
known in the Philippines and now
. on their way to France. She didn't
ask anyone how he liked his tea
she remembered. Again heard
her deity convey to each, when
he was out of the hearing of the
others, that she looked to him per-
sonally to save civilization.
She hoped Colonel Smith would
have time for a little golf before
he sailed, she recalled Mrs.

asked by name about someone

found it hard to believe.
Then we heard she had been left
a widow and had gone TO China
where she had a brother in the
consular service. And the China
bulletins equaled those from the
Philippines-LOuise carried every
thing before her, she was like q
racing yacht full sail on a win
ming breeze.
No Unpleasant Gossip in Her Wake.
The sole difference between
Louise and other women who make
Of charm" a business, was that
there was no unpleasant stories in
her wake. No broken home wreck

classmate jury sat on her case
every time it met, II couldn't IN
derstand, still remembering the
fat little girl eating peppermints,

haste we made to call on the

Fascination" Woman's Method

I'VE wre discussing the
" widow the other day and
the amazing success she
has made of her life. We had all
been schoolmates of hers and we
remembered her as a homely little
girl inclined to fairness and tears.
This was way back in the fourth
and fifth grades and that picture
persisted fearful little girl
conSoling herself with a surrepti-
Gus peppermint
Never an attractive child she de-
veloped into rather a peevish girl
who always had a woe or two on
hand that she was more than
ready to share with you. She
seemed chemically in need Of SYM
patty, and she absorbed it as a
blotting paper absorbes ink.
The Philippines Wrought Change.
We were surprised-in the IN
fattering way of classmates
when she married a young army
officer and went to live in the
Philippines. None of US ever
knew what happened in the
Islands, perhaps one fine morning
she met a long lost fairy god
mother, who confded to her the
secret of CHARM" perhaps like
Aladdin she found an old lamp
that worked miracles; or maybe
she Just schemed out the whole
thing by herself
At any rate, rumors began TO
fly homeward, that Louise-we'll
call her that-was the most fasci-
mating woman in Manila. She's
got 'em all on the string" the re-
porting friend eonfided, and by
'f'em" She meant everything in a

in like manner. It is true the de-
gree may differ, but in the essential
manifestation It is identical Either
voluntary. or involuntary thought
impulse preeedes all action either IN
man or the animal creation. This
may be carried downward IN the
scale to the very lowest organism,
where voluntary voltion or choice
is apparent and the principle holds
true.
To return to the first question
again, what is the soul?" 1t is
life, the living principle in man and
beast, in flying fowl and creeping
thing. What it Is we may not know.
Yet we do know what it is by its
manifestations Electricity, what is
it? No man knows, yet everybody
knows. So we may say Of many
other things, such as light, heat,
gravitation, etc. In like manner we
may understand what the soul is.
We may know facts about it, and
thus be abb to test claims made for
the soul, as to their truth or falsity.
I would like to touch on the "mOst
widespread craving for immortality
and future life" But my letter is

lily? Which is truth, and which is
error? Are there not other most
important truths which relate them
selves to these questions, 10 make
them very far reaching in the final
results? I believe there are. and
