The Mushroom
Hero
By BEATRICE FAIRFAX.
I ( ; VEET” writes n ie th* following
letter:
“I love a man tn whom 1 have
never been introduced. and I want him
to love me. I am 2<> years of age. and
he is l’\ j have written for his photo,
which he has sent. and. being an actor,
thought it was wanted to a dis
pute vhich 1 stated in my letter to him.
Ho h s various admirers, hut *1 love
him. and SOMETHING MUST RFC
DONE!”
M\ dear girl, something’wilt he done
and it will be overwhelming and crush
ing v hen it is done, if x on permit your
’Olves to indulge in a mushroom love
like this.
The 'something” that will be done is
what happens when a road crusher rolls
oxer an obstacle In its path. You are
deliberately throwing yourself in the
path of a road crusher that will crush
•mt all your life, youi hope, your faith,
your future, when you indulge in lov<
for a man whom you do not know and
one whose calling depends in a measure
for popular success in making matinee
worshipers of girls as silly as you.
I do not use that word “silly” to
give offense, but because it is a tru*
description of you, and one you should
recognize, and change, before, it is too
late.
You are silly tn give this man a sec
. mid thought and sill’, to a dangerous
degree in writing to him and asking
1 him for his photograph.
I ndouhtedly the lines he speaks on
the stage are hemic, and you. poor
child, imagine that his life off the stage
i- a counterpart.
Paid For Being Hero.
You have confused the hero who gets
paid so much a week for being a hero
with the man who is a hero when there
is no one tn see, and none to applaud.
You gaze on that noble make-up
countenance with reverence, little
knowing that the fare he wears be
fore an audience is usually the op
posite of that he wears tn those who
know him best.
You have emptied out your poor lit
tle heart at his feet, and if acquaint
ance with him resulted in it getting
bruised he would care no more than if
It w ere a footba 11.
lb must not be too greatly con
demned for this. It is the class of wom
en tn which 1 beg that you will not
belong that makes him what he Is.
Notes nf admiration and adulation,
appeals for his photographs. homage
from women whn are encouraged to
appear because their appearance swells
the box office receipts, all serve to turn
a head that was never well fastened
on In the first place.
And the hero on the stage becomes
the villain in real life, and it Is the
women whn are in blame.
“Something must be done.” you say.
My dear girl, let this be the “some-
: Lhlng” and see to It that it is done, and
: done promptly.
Put thoughts of this man out of your
• mind. Tear up hie photograph, and if
you realize that you are not strong
e/iough to see him act and keep your
■ head, don’t go near him again.
There are men in your own circle of
friends worth a million of men like
him—men who are friends of your
brother, men of whom your father ap
provecr. if you must love soiree one,
pour nut vnur affections on an object
worthy of them.
Don’t Value Love Cheaply.
Don’t value vnur Jove so cheaply that
you are readv to lav it at the feet of a
man who would laugh at it. You don’t
want tn make a jest of the most sacred
of a’l emotions: ypt I do not doubt that
• this man has laughed al you many
times.
Without doubt he has boasted of his
manv conquests, and taken as much
pride in showing notes from women tn

take in showing records of a big day’s
sales.
They make him popular, they are his
stock in trade. They enhance his value

So far as sentiim ut ;« concerned, he
doesn't care any thing more for the “va

Advice to the |
Lovelorn
By BEATRICE FAIRFAX.
THE WAY IS NOT NEW.
Dear Miss Fairfax:
I am tiventy-twn, and have been go-
Ing with a young lady for some months.
1 am deeply in love with her. but have
in some way off, nded h»r. How can
I gain her love? K. R.
There are no new ways to win a
woman’s love Re kind, courteous, al
ways sympathetic, quick to under
stand, and quick to act. Show her all
the little attentions a girl iik®s. and •
prove tn her that you are a tnanly !
man, atvl that the love vnu offer her
is worthy of acceptance.
WHICH DO YOU LOVE THE MORE?
Dear Miss Fairfax:
I am ’in lot e with a girl two years •
my senior. We went to a house party
and she seemed to pat more attention
to certain fellows than she did to me.
I spoke tv her about it and she got
marl. It would break my heart if I
should lore her. E. A. <’. H.
Which do you love the more—the girl
or your own way' 1 You are not en
gtiged. »n<l have no light of authority
over her actions.
You were foolish to question her. and
the only reparation you can make is by
telling her so. If you want the right
to question her. ask hei to marry you.
