bedside of his father, Dr. PfilHp to the last ray of hope In
the form of asking my advice, trusting
that I may be able to console her.
It goes to my heart to have to tell
her to put him out of her mind, and
yet I know It 1* the wisest course for
her to follow. .... ,
It Is absolutely Impoeslble to rekin
dle the ashes of a man’s love.
To him the love Is as "dead hs yee-
terday’s seven thousand y«ars.
With a woman It Is different. She
may outgrow her love for a man, but
he will always stand apart from other
men, surrounded by a halo of memory
and lender regret.- , . ,
Tc try and hold a man when he Is
anxious to go Is the greatest folly. .He
will gc. any way. and she Is a wise girl
wlio accepts the Inevitable and sends
hlin bway before he goes of his own
0t T° r .Te Is not a girl In a thousand who
cannot tell when a man's Interest In
her begins to wane. _ . .
It Is nafural to make an effort to
hold him, hut don't lose sight of your
prld3 and dignity in the effort.
When there Is another girl In the
case the effort Is simply loves labor
lost.

get him,’* seem* •ool<T ,and unsympa
thetic, but It U better to cut deep In
tha first place and avoid having to hurt
a second time.
Trying to forget Is weary, heart
breaking work, but It can be done, and
at least you will have the comfort of
having saved your pride.
.Some of you are throwing your
hearts away on men who are not-worth
the sacrifice. They are the men above
all others to forget.
You think that It will break your
hearts to give them up, but, dear
girlies, hearts don’t break aa easily as
we sometimes think they do.
We often mistake heartache for
heartbreak.
When your parents, your friends and
your own common ssnse tell you that
a man Is unworthy, give him up.
Work hard, fill your mind with other
Interests, fight bravely and In time you
will conquer.
Pride will help you forget the man
who has forgotten you.
It will be harder for you to give up
the man, who all upworthy though he
may be, still pleads for your love. But
you must let him go, because sooner
or later he will neglect and wound
you.
Some day the right man will come
along, and then you will be very thank,
ful that you have not thrown your
htart away on the wrong one.

has, at a ripe obi age, folded her
weary arms and palsed to tbe be

Mrs. Davis was verily a typical lady of
the olden time. Hhe possessed a rare In
tellect and was endowed with Innumerable
Virtues. Khe filled her place as wife and
mother with remarkable tenderness, devo
tion and unwavering loyalty. Born under
the nnsplces of wealth In s time when there
were fewer fortunes In the land, she had
exceptional opportunities In her youth. Hhe
was a iitipli In Mme. (Ireland's Hcbool In
Philadelphia, the most noted one of the
yonag republic. Here she was thoroughly
trained in all the arcoinpllrfhmenttt and
ipiisitex for filling the high position to
hlch she was called.
Hhe was married nt 19. and ns her hits-
baud was aoou after elected to congress,
