Mr. Barclay couldn't help being fond
of Tommy, but In some ways Tommy
proved an awful disappointment to htm.
Adopted Into and brought up to be an
ariatocrat of wealth, he had no Interest
In money except to spend It. I don't mean
that he waa especially wasteful or es
pecially extravagant, but only that he
look no Intereat in how the money had
gathered or how It could be made
to work. Hs was much mors Interested
In horses and boats and dogs and shoot
ing than In any of his patronia financial
affairs. He went to boarding school and
played oa the foot ball team and the
hockey team and the base ball team. He
took prises in everything that he engaged
In, except studies. It was the same with
him at college. He spent half of his
time winning trophies for his college and
the other half making friends for him
self. When he graduated Mr. Barclay
tried to teach him banking, railroading
and a few other trifles all at once. Mr.
Barclay had not patience with the Idea
i that it la best to begin at the bottom
and work up. He believed In beginning
at the top. Tommy did his very best to
! make good. He attended long-drawn out
; directors' meetings and he racked his
j brains to understand what they were all
j about He travelled all over the coun
, try to Inspect this property and that, and
onoe he almost got Into touch with fl
I nance; at least he found amusement in
I one aspect of It. In short, he was sworn
In aa a special deputy In a time of coal
trouble and helped to put down a strike.
Mr. Barclay did not expect too much
of Tommy, and soon saw what little ha
did expect he was not likely to get. But
he was very fond of him and tried to
make the beat of him. Tommy spent all
his leisure time playing polo or tennta
or washing off on hunting trips, and some
fourteen or fifteen years after this story
opens he became very much Interested
In Miss Mary Blackatone.
He badn't forgotten the little Ames-
bury girl. He never would forget her,
but whet is the use of a little girl who
lives In heaven to a young man who
doesn't?
Tommy often dream 1 about her still.
As he grew older she grew older, and
the heaven In which -he lived and was
rducuted by the most scientific and
phtloaophlrat of all the salnta and angels,
became more snd more sophisticated and

said that there were 0. These, however,
did not effect Tommy. He wss on the
most cramlng snd intimste terms with

If she liked Tommy better than any
body elsn she was In no hurry to say so.
Hhe didn't want to cut herself off from
all the other younx mon, whom she liked

favorite of his uni'le's. He took so much

that he exiwcted to own them eoinn day.

director In the affairs of hslf a', down of

The world haa always been run on a
short allowance of love.
Passion haa been plentiful, but love

Is kind."
However, our
own America has
more love In It
today than tt ever
had before.
To love and be
loved means the
highest form of
happiness that
mortals know.
Not to love or be

well loved live long
and well.

Love" and "life" are
synonymous
terms.
To love means allying yourself to the
forces of the universe moving with the
eternal tides "hitching your wagon to
a star."
To love one Is to love all. For loving
one we are in harmony with all. Then
do our footfalls tinkle with the mualc of
the spheres, and the days are radiant.
To be loving and lovable one has to
have certain qualities physical, mental
and moral.
And our moral and metal qualities,
psychologists now tell us. turn largely
on our physical condition.
Those rare moments when we are In
tune with the Infinite are only possible
when the body does Its perfect work.
"The sick man Is a rasoal." said old
Tit. Johnson. And the world now knows
It Is true. To be well Is not only a
privilege but a duty. The. days of the
flagellants are gone.

Msny people est four meals a day
breakfast, luncheon, dinner and supper
after the theater. Such folks are bound
to suffer, and much of the time are. con
sequently, unloving and unlovable.
When you are aware you have a stom
ach you are given to introspection, and
introspection means misery. And misery
Is contagious.
Also, I might add, that happiness Is
not only contagious but Infectious.
Joy runs over and Inundates every
thing. It bubbles, effervesoes, overflows
Its banks and makes the waste places
green. We keep Joy by giving It away.
A thou girt Is not our own until we Im
part It to another. And In order to
have sweet and Joyous thoughts you
must have a body that ran mirror your
Joyous mood.
If we were aallors, living twelve hours
or mora a day In the open air, we could
Stuff our holds with a mixed cargo and
yet thrive. But living much Indoors,
with vexed mental problems to solve, we
need the. fertile mind and the insight that
sees things In their true light
To this end we must get rid of the
farmhand habit of overeating.
We want leas food and better food
We would be gallsnt, generous gentle
men, and Intelligent, gracious ladiss, all,
The sick, the grouchy have got to go,
We would possess our souls In patience.
We would know the fine art of listening.
We would sit In the silence with our
friend without embarrassment and paok
each pause with feeling. For only then
are we lovable.
To be lovable we must have certain
mental and moral qualitlea By mental
qualities Is meant the traits of character
that make you able to put yourself In
place of the other person.
This mean:) deference for the rights of
others, consideration, sympathy, slownasa

Mental qualitlea are those that we use
in making decisions. Mentality means
memory, knowledge. Insight, ability to
far problems and sorve them rightly,' to
throw the searchlight of Imagination into
the future and thus possess the proDhetlo
vision.

rerhai the proverb that the "end Jus
tifies the means" Is the only thing that
can be said In favor of "white lies."
Tersonally 1 do not consider that any
thing ran really Justify a lie, white or
otherwlae. Certainly there may arise oo
oaslona when It Is extremely difficult to
avoid speaking the truth, and prrhspa '
getting some Innocent person Into trouble.
This state of affairs should never arise,
and It would not If even one had a nice
senMe of honor. The dangerous hsblt of
spying Is found In alt ranks of lif from
the highest to the lowest, and It Is this
habit which has led to the necessity of
uiang a "white He."
Once, years ago, I took a girl of 14 to
task for telling an untruth to an older
woman who had been questioning her
about some relation.
"You know your answer should have
been unite the opposite." "I know," she
owned, but how could I tell her the
truth?" Jhe only ssked out of pure natl-
rss and curiosity. I like the A, they

It la this point 1 want to Illustrate,
o person whether In authority or not
as a right to ask anyone else question
from which she csnnot expect anything
less thsn "white lies" In reply to her
question.
At first the "white lies" may- be "poke
1th a sense of shame, a fear that the '
subterfuge may be found out. We hardly
like to meet the person again for a few
days. But one untruth, even the mildest .
of "white lies" will need another to Jus- '
tlfy It. and the first "white lie" demands
nothtr to support It, and while the first
waa uttered with fear and mlsslvlng, the
others that follow become easier to ut
ter, until at last there Is no difficulty at
all In using a "white lie."
Among my old friends there are women
who In theory would never descend to a
lie. but who have become unconsciously ,
so addicted to the telling of "white lies" .
that they use them at all times and
paeons. Once I had been Invited to take
tea with a friend. She lived at some dis
tance from my home, a long two miles
ley between our houses. I reached her
house at 4:30 to find it empty and my ,
friend apparently out. Knowing her .
fancy for long country walks I made
my way Into the garden and waited for
half an hour, and then returned home
feeling rather cross at having had my
walk for nothing. The next day she
came and reproached me for having dis
appointed her. Blie had been resting and
had not heard ray knock. Why hadn't t
opened the door and walked In? I might '
have believed her, but unfortunately I
had tried the door and found It locked. '
I had met a mutual friend, who had in
formed me that ahe and my absent friend
had been out on the river all day, and
that the latter had only remembered her '
Invitation only an hour after the time
ha should have been at home to receive ' -me.
Now Z am wondering why she had '
not honesty to tell me the truth. We :
were old friends and there waa no neces
sity for her to have hidden the fact that '
he had forgotten her appointment. I
should not have felt half the annoyance
I did when I heard her utter a deliberate '
untruth.
