only too often that the gentle voice Of Love is but as a
- faint, whisper before the throbbing call Of the world with all
Its fame, luxury and wealth and the material joys that offer
more In the anticipation than in fulhllment. zfor all these are
ephemeral unless they are the tribute of true Love that finds its
happiness in unselfsh giving.
Beauty does not believe that there can be 10Y and happiness
IN simple things. That a tiny home built by Love holds more
true loneliness and radiance than does a mansion where indiher-
ence il master. Beauty does not know that luxury can pail, that
magnficence can become monotonous, that there comes a time
when simplicity holds more allure than DO all the gems that have
dazzled her with their mirage-ike brllance. But Love knows all
