And all talk about tha lower birth rata In Franca is beside the mark. The child la held so precious In the French mind that he usually remains a dream child till the right conditions are In eight for hie upbringing. If allowance be made for that fringe of the unpro ductive found In every land. It la doubtful whether tha birth rata among the high-minded and responsible la lower over there than .over hare. The French woman cannot be sum med up In a phraae. Contrary to the general opinion, she Is simple, practi cal, sensible, tenacious, deliberate, cautious, farsighted and affectionate. She Is sensltiva but not sentimental. She la talkative but not superficial. She Is ebullient but.enduring. She la a compound of heart and head, which explains Joffre, Retain, Foch and the I'ollu, who have fought these four years past our battl* as well aa their own and have been the surprise o* every friend aa well as the exaspers tlon of the foe.

Bat I'm aimoat afraid to taka Itt” Tha rain beat In a fatlln manna* against the car windows. I listened to It for a moment before I apoka. “ Why?" I questioned at last— “ why are you afraid to taka your chance—* to be happy?” "Because,” answered my friend, and her eyes looked far away— past tha car and the rain, even— “because ran afraid that It won’t last I” Whea It la autumn and the leaves are crimson and'gold-colored and very beautiful, we know, even aa we admire them, that they will be brown and withered some day. But that does not keep us from loving their glorious col ors. It’s like that, too, with flowers, and springtime, and the bine sky o f sum mer. We know that the flowers will fitde away and that springtime will go and that there will be winter storm clouds where there were once sparklet of m l ¿ a u m a d m *** And so this Is the answer to my meml pqd to other friends of tBjp et.

And even though It might not last, happiness la too beautiful to pass by with never a glance. • And then, as the philosopher said, and as we know, don’t be sure, as you take your chance at happiness, that It will not stay. Look around your cir cle of friends, look at your buslaess associates, look at the casual crowds and note the average of happy facea Is rnthor high. You’ll see more smiles. I think, than frowns; more merry faces than sad ones! Don’t be afraid to take a chance at happiness because you fear that It la too beautiful to Inst. Take your chance.
