Tn his book. "WinnOwed Mem ories," Sir Evelyn Wood relates how he once met a quiet American gentle man in England, and they began to talk of American poetry. Sir Evelyn mentioned the Well-knOwn poem "Jim BludsO," which he highly eulogized.
 My enthusiastic praise of the poem excited, I thought, an appreciative purr in my companion, but he re- marked quietly:
 "'Jim was a fine fellow"
 "I said, Or our author made him so?|,

Youths BesutifuILove

The love of youth Is always full of hope It is quite free from doubts and fears. The young man and girl have unbOunded faith in love because they have had no experience of the hearts instability. Neither women nor men can love quite so wholeheartedIy and truly once their faith has been shaken. For this reason the palm of true loving goes to youth, writes correspondent In the New Orleans Picayune. Older folks sometimes love with more pas sion, but they are also more subtle. They are much richer in exquisite ex- pression of their affection, but this ability to talk love" only comes from practice, and is no proof of sincerity.
