A WOMAN writes me she Is 80
a years old. and the same man has
been paying her devoted attention"
since she was 1s. and yet has never
said a word about marriage.
She says everyone thinks they are
engaged, and her plight is so humili-
ating that she fosters that belief
nevertheless he has taken pains on
two or three occasions to tell her
explicitly that he sis not a marrying
man"
In spite Of everything she loves
him devotedly, and says: IF I give
him up, I shall only be splitting my
self: with little or no difficulty he
could get another girl to waste youth
and opportunity on him as I have
done, and where could look for com
partnership now2"
There is nothing new about this
situation. this conflict between a
tenderhearted woman with a big
capacity for loving and a man who
prefers the little things he calls his
freedom" TO the deep realities Of
life. And the man wins. and the
woman suffers, and the world SCOTS.
There is really very little advice
to be given to this correspondent.

Reasons tor 1t.

cause it answers the cry O.
an inner need That cry is
by no means always reli-
/ gious, as some suppose. 1t springs from
various motives. To some it is merely
the response of returning spring. To
others it answers the cali of fashion.
Most people safve their consclences
that they are answering the call OF
the inner religious life. No doubt
Easter day furnishes the occasion for
all that's done In its name, but much
of the Easter performance has as
much heathenism as Christianity In II.
Of course you'll hollcr and protest
that 1t isn't so. But your old uncle
Is willing to let the facts speak in the
matter. The reason we find it so hard
to see the truth is that custom has
made the whole Easter show respect
able.
Your Uncle Ben finds no fault with
the desire of the fair sex to look as
fair as the lily and be twice as at
tractive. But the trouble is he can't
always see the beauty in many of the
creations that are thought to be so.
People forget that features differ. Not
every one can wear the same shaped
hat. They don't want hat like any
body else. But it must conform to
Dame Fashions order no matter now

colors may scream and the feathers
may flare, but if that's the mode there
is no room for argument. So when

Toys Easter.
But the heart knows deeper calls

There is the first torrent uf recollec-
