Dear Miss Blake: I noticed-in a recent Issue the letter of a young wom an of 28, she states, who had been en gaged for nine years and found that her fiance had sdrcrtded to remain a bachelor. I don't relieve him. He got tired of her for the very simple reason that she is by far too good for him. He will not find another girl like her in 10,000. When you say 'a selfish brute your language Is far too mild. I do believe she is well rid of any man with such ideas. I don't know but it might be against the rules of strict propriety for me to say that I would like to cor respond with a lady that I have never met or lienrd tell of other than as stated above, still I admire her, and know from the wording of her letter she has been a splendid, patient girl. I know she is a good girl. I am fairly well to do, so far as money matters are concerned. I have been told that I am good looking. My reputation is good among my friends and acquaintances. I don't touch al cohol in any form whatsoever, and as I am 40 years of age and pretty well ac quainted with myself, I know 1 never shall. I state those facts in order that you may know I am respectable and that my motive is honorable. Will you kindly introduce me to this lady, pro viding she has no objections? "WALTER." I am sorry. Indeed, that it is not in my power to make you and the unhappy little girl in the paper friends. One of the rules of my department is that X cannot give correspondents' addresses to any one or make two people ac quainted, no matter how eager they are for that friendship. As you must see. that is a good rule. Despite your most cordial letter and the girl's sincere one I have no way of knowing that you would be at all suited to one another, and it would be impos sible for me to undertake the responsi bility of your meeting each other. Tours is only one of the innumerable requests of this sort. They are all regretfully treated alike. I appreciate your interest In the de partment sincerely, and especially in the little girl who wrote, but, you see, do you not. that it is impossible for me to make you friends? If I can help you at all in the future won't you call upon me? The Magnet of Happiness. Copyrisht, 1914, by the McClure Newspaper synaic&ie. J I ONCE heard of a woman who had become so friendless and so lonely that she secreted herself In ber home. drew the curtains, and put crepe on her door in order to find out what people would be likely to do when she waa dead. The next morning her neighbors and acquaintances saw the big streamers of crepe and people who had not called on the old lady for many years flocked to the house. Many brought floral offerings. What was their sur s prise to find the supposedly dead wo man very much alive and sitting in a chair! She told her callers how friendless she had been and how she had hun gered for sympathy and love which had never come to her, and that be had taken this unusual means to find out what people really thought of her. The unhappy woman did not realize that her confession of loneliness was really an indictment of herself, that her forlorn condition was the result of her attitude toward the world. She had neglected her old friends and had not cultivated new ones. She had been selfish and had not given her love and sympathy to others, and how could she expect love and sympathy from them Reciprocity is the keynote of a truly happy life. One cannot receive all and give nothing, or give all and receive nothing, and expect to experience the joy and fullness of true companion ship. "The secret of being loved Is In be lng lovely, and the secret of being love ly is In being unselfish Is there not something In human na ture which loves kindness and despises selfishness t Does not everybody love a broad, magnanimous, kindly heart? The man who is always studying his own advantage, always looking for the main chance, never elicits our love or draws us to him. The world loves a Lincoln, because he sacrificed self,, comfort, ease, health itself, and even jeopardized his life. because he loved the people. The world loves a Florence Nightingale, because she gave up ease, comfort, and the luxuries of home to administer to the sick and wounded soldiers in the filth and disease of the camp. The world has no use for the man who lives only for himself. It gives Its love and lau rels to the chivalrous and kind. It gives them to the soldier, the fireman, the nurse, the engineer, the sailor every one who gives bis life for others. Many men and women go through life with a sense of loneliness, hungry for friends and for the love and admi ration of others, simply because of something about their personalities which repels. These people are often proud and sensitive, and they wonder why they are shunned and avoided, but they never learn to stuay themselves. and to find out the real reason. The virtues that make the heart rich must come from a sweet dispo sition, a helpful, sunny soul. A happy temperament, a desire to scatter joy and gladness, to be help ful to everybody, are wonderful aids to friendship and a sovereign cure for loneliness. If you would be happy and have many friends, cultivate an open nature. kindly, cheerful manner, a joyous spirit: do not be stingy with four praise, your cordiality, your helpful ness. Fling out your best- to every human being at every opportunity. Learn to say pleasant things to people about themselves; do generous things. and you will be surprised to see how your life will enlarge, your soul ex pand, and your whole nature become enriched and ennobled. It Is only he who loses his life, who gives It royally in kindly, helpful serv ice to others that finds it. This is the sowing that gives the bountiful har vest.
