WQNDEB how many people really
know what lor means!" said a
widely read author.
Nowaday, in tbe harry and scarry of
life, love is apt to get pushed aside and
left, alone in tbe background, while we
busy ourselves with matters considered far
more pressing. Position? money and prosv
pect engross our keenest attention.
A great many girls believe themselves la
love, but the fancy lose Its Intensity as
they mix lo society. " Von i put off. to
tbe last moment. "It I bound to com
some time," I the frequent remark. But
Is not always so
love is-not always so self-assertive. - It
will drop and wither up for want of proper
nourishment and tru sympsthy. .
That lore begets lore is an old proverb
that In tbe light of twentieth-century drill
satlon 1 apt to be contested. True, real,
earnest, devout lore seldom lack reciproc
ity. J It has a ring of sincerity In It there
is no mistaking. Bnt it is tbe spurlou
suit-all-circumstances sort of affection that
make tbe heart callous, add blunt the
llnest feelings. .
Fancy may torn to love, but aerer lor
to fancy. The- on I like the . shadow
upon the surface of the water; the otber Is
treasured deeply beneath. . If men and
.meg0Hidpji
Sjrrlously,-snd love less frivolously, there
would b fewer broken engagements tad
uUerably unhappy marriage. -
