Graves the love and the lover belonging to

the bouquet Of life and to deal with her or him,
needs a collected mind and a cool hand.
The ways of the love thief are devious. No
two work alike, although there are certain funda-
mental rules that seem to help them to success.
One OF these is sympathy. sympathy for little
important trifles, sympathy that will make an
otherwise sensible male imagine that the world
does not appreciate him, just because his best

who lives on admiration and flattery. She will
console him and offer him her affection-until
the next heartbroken male comes along ripe for
her sympathy and honied words. In the mean
time he has lost the real girl Of his heart. And
sometimes it is too late to win her back again.
But worst of all is the love thief who sees
two, happy people, and deliberately plots to come
between them and destroy their idyl.. Frequently
this type of love thief is a woman who sets her
mind on a certain man, whether he Is attached
or not. And usually it is another woman's man
at whom she sets her cap. She will scheme and
plan until she has destroyed every vestage Of
their happiness and the man has become the
victim Of her cruel within. But often the man
finds that the glamor that surrounded him when
he was another's has vanished and the SIRENS call
has become an empty echo.
