Re says he loves me more than any thing in the world, and I believe he does, but he says that married iifp would not suit him, and that he I never intends to marry. He said ie would never get tired of me, % h 1 but that he just thought married life would not suit him. One time he told me that he pitied a wife that Hfcd to stay at home, while her husband was at the club, and he says a man will promise a wom an anything until he gets her then they usually went back to the old habits.

TA EAR MISS FAIRFAX: I am deeply in love with a young girl who lives opposite me and 1 think she loves me. but can not come to the conclusion to ask her if she loves me.

If she loves you after a mere window r acquaintance her love isn't well founded. Pay her every attention a girl likes to receive and be both constant and consistent. The Manicure Lady By WILLIAM F. KIRK. r T’S all baeball now, ain't it George?” said the Manicure Lady “I’ve been dreading it all inter, the Spring opening of tHe tns.

This is how it went: “ Bill Smith, thou great and noble leader. The baseball world looks up to th“e. And almost any careful reader From the lowest to the highest degree Must know when reading the sporting page The wonderful chieftain that thou art; Thou art an athlete and a sage; I worship thee with all my heart.’ ” "Tl.it was fierce, wasn't it?’ said the Head Barber. "I guess that kind of tripe wouldn’t go very far with a rnan like Billy Smith." “That’s what poor Wilfred found out," said the Manicure Lady. “The morning that he reported at Ponce DeLeon Smith told him to go and pul on a uniform for morning practice. That’s where Wilfred made another mistake of his life—the kind that he is all the time making. Other fel lows make little mistakes once in a w hile for a change, but every mistake Wilfred makes It is the mistake of his life, to hear him tell it. Instead of nutting on his uniform right away and getting out to practice with tfie other boys, he had to go and show that piece of chees e he called a poem. Smith read it through, so Wilfred told us, and then told him that he didn’t need to mind putting on the uniform. He told poor Brother that he had boneheads enough on his team as it was, without signing any poet, and he said that the best he could do would be to give Wilfred the posi tion of assistant hat boy. That’s how Wilfred came to lose his interest in baseball.’’ The Summer Silliness. “It's funny how many people kind of lose their minds in summertime.” said the Head Barber. “If it isn’t baseball it is golf. There were three fellows in here this morning—the only three that have been In my chair. Two of them* were baseball bugs, and the other couldn’t talk about anything except the new links near his country home on the Ma rietta road. He had a stack of clubs with him that looked almost as big as a cord of wood, and when he got out of the chair he showed me a dozen new golf balls he had just bought. While he was showing them to me and telling how much they had cost him. he oozed out of the door kind of dreamy without handing me no tip at all.

Gf • h f Ik > an expectant mother: You tell me another child is com ing; and that you are worried and full of trouble and anxiety; and sorry for yourself. It «loes not seem to enter your mind that you are forming the nature of your child by your moods; and that you have an obligation resting upon you to use will power, self control, prayer and faith while this helpless being is carried under your heart. You ure building something which will means good or evil v for the .world for time and enternity. You are bringing j into existence, a HITMAN BEING. Such a sol ossal thought ought to take such a complete possession of you that nothing petty, nothing gloomy/, noth ing selfish, nothing less, than greatness and glory coul<\ enter your mind. Other Incarnations. That child now’ under your heart has lived many times before on earth. It will come with many impulses and ten- tencies brought over from old incarna tions; and many others from ancestors "f your own and the ancestors of the father. BUT GREATER THAN ALL THEBE IMPULSES AND TENDENCIES IS THE MIND OF THE MOTHER TO MOULD AND SHAPE THAT CHILD INTfj WHAT IT WILL BE. If you realize how wonderful is the work given to do, and how far reach ing will be the results of how you do it, a great awe, will fall upon you, with a gre.it exalthtion. You will fall on your knees and lift your face to the Invisible Helpers, and cry out; “Creator. God and all Holy Angels ami Intelligences in the worlds and systems of worlds about and be yond me, help me to be worthy of this mighty mission of Motherhood with which I am invested, endowed. Thrill me, stir me, enlighten me, with wis dom. give me light and guidance: and show’ me the wajr to give to the world a perfect child." This prayer will be from the depths of your being; and it will he repeated every day, and you wdll fall asleep at night with the words on your lips. Avoid Everything Ugly. Then you will guard yourself from all evil thinking or speaking, from gloomy or depressing thoughts; be cause you will know that one who so respects the mission entrusted to her, and who so believes in her great re sponsibility will be guarded and helped over all the hard places by the Divine Guides, who are ever about us. You- will avoid looking at the ugly, the .deformed or the repulsive things of earth. You will read no taler of crime and allow no one to talk such things to you, because you will not want to pass on to your unborn child anything but the beautiful, healthful and inspiring things of life. You will read good books, books or biographies of noble lives, books of brave ami noble needs; and you will listen to good music, and go into churches and galleries and see beautiful pictures; or walk in woods and fields and look at beautiful nature. And always will there be the prayer and the faith in your heart that brings the Invisible Helpers near. You will believe that a Great Seul is coming to earth through you, a soul that will be helpful, and happy, and that will bring the best joy into your own life that it has ever known. Anil with all your heart and mind and mental ami spiritual powers you will love this baby; anil you will he brave and courageous and know that all must be well with you and it.
