THE WAYS
OF LOVE
am
By
ELLEN
IVieir Infinite Variety
TT HE outward manifestations of
1U. gentle passion are certainly very va
tried. There are quite as many kinds In
tho World as there are men and women,
Ro an eminent authority In the person of
Kirs, Elsa Barker, the poetess, declares.
"Just at each person looks unlike any
I other," she says, "so each loves In his or
her own way, Even one Individual may
know several kinds ot love, for I think
We may give that name to all attraction
Ibctween man and woman and give It re
jspect, too. In Its degree. Love cannot be
pigeonholed.
"The great love embraces every part
tof the nature, spiritual, mental and physi
cal. It Is the rarest love. Most loves
Fare on the surface, Just as most lles are
on the surface. The supreme, historical
Jpasslon must be so deep that It will sacr
ifice even' Itself for the beloved. It must
be compounded of both giving and receiv
ing, or It soon exhaUBts Itself. To be
perfect. It must bo mutual and equal, for
pa one-sided thing never can be perfect."
Another authority declares that there
are four varieties of love, the true, self
sacrlflclng love, selfish devotion, Infatua
tion and mere- affection.
Certainly, we can say with truth that
the outward and visible manifestations of
love are sometimes exceedingly curious.
Nay, more, they are passing strange!
Have we not all known the trials and
tribulations Into which the average en
gaged couple falls? Down'ln the depths
one day, up In the heights the next, they
are never in the same mood for long,
and always peculiarly trying to llvo with.
Tho course ot true lovo never did run
smooth, that Is one thing sure and cer
tain. The best sort of love Is founded on
self-sacrlflce, of course. But that partic
ular brand of love isn't often to be met
with.
"To love is alwas better than to bo
HE loved," says Mrs. Barker. "To love Is
vK ecstasy, however much suffering It costs
and sometimes it costs a great deal. To
W'be loved, unless one lotas In return, is
merely a bore. One of the most pathetic
ploves I know, and one commoner than
most people dream, is that of ago for
youth, tho pitiful attempt to enjoy youth
M once more, If but vicariously. Such love
? is often unrequited. That doesn't matter.
'Who dares to love, unloved, the cord unties
In whose close colls the fettered enlrlt lies;
The Jealous godi bluh and evade hl aiance.
And Joy and pain are equally his prize."
"Tho love of youth is glamour. It is
CHILDREN'S CORNER
Frisky Cottontail's New Home
FRISKY COTTONTAIL was a first
cousin to Toppy Cottontail and to
TImmy Graytuil and was very proud of
tho relationship. But unlike Toppy and
PTfromy, he had had very few adventures.
"I wonder why It is," he remarked one
day to his little mate, "that other rabbits
Lbave such interesting adventures? Noth
ing1 ever happens to us!"
"It'a,easy enough to see why," replied
Mrs. Frisky Cottontail, with a disgusted
sniff.
Frisky pricked up his ears. "Easy
enough? Then, If you know why, please
tell!"
"All right!" said Mrs. Frisky, "that's
exactly what I mean to do! Nothing ever
happens to us nothing Interesting, I mean
because you Insist on living In these
tiresome woods. Now Toppy went to the
farmyard and Tlmmy went to live In a
city park. That's what I call Jiving! But
you you Just want to stay right here in
the woods all tho time! I'm so tired of
woods and woods and woods!"
Frisky was so surprised with her
'.answer that ho couldn't think of a word
, to sayt His little mate, who was always
nu quiet anu sensime, taiKing line mat!
Me could hardly Deiieve his ears! "I
know they have traveled," he found
breath to say lri a minute, "but think
how dangerous travel Is. Surely you
don't want to go clear Into the city? Or
out through the country to the big farm
yard?" Mrs. Frisky Cottontail thought a min
ute. This was her chance, the chance she
had often hODed for. and she uantpH in
f be very sure of what she really wanted to
do. before sne onered any advice. "I don't
know as I do want to go clear Into the
city," she Anally said, "and I'm quite
sure I don't like farm life the roosters
f. do crow so loud and early. I know all
about them from what I havo beard Top
py . .
"Then where do you want to go?" ex
claimed Frisky.
"Couldn't we bo Just cart way to the
city?" asked Mrs. Frisky, "Just far
enough to meet some adventures and not
far enough but what we could find our
way back if we didn't like It?"
Frisky thought that such a very good
fjfdea that be Voted to start out at once.

thee.xqultlto as a rosebud nnd as perishable.
The voung girl, for example, dream-! of
an Ideal a beautiful, strange, rich fairy
prince, who will love her tremendously.
I think that n girl generally wants to
marry a rich man until she meets a poor
man who makes her change her mind.
Even when she thinks herself In lovo It Is
an Ideal that she Is loving, an Ideal that
may or may not bear any relation to tho
identity hiding behind It.
"Then there Is the love of habit and
custom. That 'seems to make many per
sons happy, and It, therefore, deserves
respect But those who want something
more In their love, nnd who start with
something more, must ben are of regard
ing love as static and settled ever It
Is not n chase; that idea must have been
conceived originally by the people who
never caught anything It Is a growth;
nnd It must develop or decline. I be
lieve that much of the unhnpplness of
the American woman Is due to her con
viction that If she goes to the altar with
a man sho need do nothing else to re
tain, through eternity, his entire de
votion." Certainly In these modern days, egotism
and the Inherent selfishness of many
women have proved tho grave of love.
For lovo and selflshnesB cannot dwell to
gether. Sympathy and understanding arc two
great factors essential to a successful
love affair. For where sympathy and un
derstanding are, there also will dwIl true
happiness.
Mayor to See Suffrage Pnradc
Suffragists In this city are happy over
the fact that Mayor Blankenburg has ac
cepted an invitation to view the monster
suffrage parade on Saturday. Tha
Mayor, together with a number of other
city officials, will see tho parade from
the State Fenclblcs' grandstand, .it
Broad and Race streets. It Is likely, too,
that o number of Philadelphia legisla
tors and their wives -vs III see the demon
stration. They have been asked to. Ar
rangements have been made to have
the City Hall decorated with suffrage
colors during the afternoon ns the parade
passes. A letter from Chief Pike, of tho
Electrical Bureau, announces that tho
hall will te brilliantly lighted on Satur
day night in honor of the suffragists'
Jubilee day.
Librarians in Suffrage Parade
"Women library workers will march In
tho woman suffrage parade to be held in
this city on May 1. Announcement to
that effect was made today by MLss Ada
F. Llverlght, head of tho Pedagogical
Library. Miss Llverlght nskd that II
biarlans who wish to Join the pagcan,.
communicate with her at the headquar
ters of the Board of Education, In the
Stock Exchange Building.
So, before an hour had passed, Mr. and
Mrs. Frisky Cottontnll weie well on their
way toward the new home in the out
skirts of the city.
For many an hour they traveled, slip
ping from cover to cover, shaking with
fear when they met anything either man,
or wagon or creature; till at last, footsore
nnd weary, they slipped Into a yard to
rest.
" with ui didn't have to go any
farther."
"This traveling is not as much fun as
I thought It would be," said Mrs. Frisky
in a tired voice. "I wish we didn't have
to go any farther."
"Maybe we don't," said Frisky, "you
stay here and rest and I'll look aroundJ'
60 Mrs Frisky snuggled down under
some leaves and Frisky went off to in
vestigate. In three minutes he was back.
"I've found the finest nest" he declared,
"It's made of soft grass. Do come and
see!" 60 Mrs. Frisky went Sho found
a great pile of fresh cut grass heaped up
by a back yard fence, and it smelted so
fresh and felt so soft that she at once
decided to stay In It. "This Is Just the
place for us," she said, and so tho new
homa was chosen and they set about
making It fine and comfortable.

The Diily Story
Merton's Ambition
"So It's a case of the law or the lady,"
Bemls said, chuckling hard. "I should
have no doubt as to which would win
If I didn't know about the other lady."
Morton flushed angrily nnd frowned.
"You know nothing of the sort. There
Isn't any 'other lady' "
"Which her name It Is Henrietta
Henrietta Bruce," Bemls Interrupted, still
chuckling, but growing grave as he add
ed! "And If you let yourself leave her
In tho lurch, Jack, you're n cad ot the
first water."
"Thcro Is no question of taking or leav
ing," Merton began, trying to bravo It
out, but at the end dropping his head, and
half whispering:
"You you are right. Ned Etta loves me
nnd I love her better than nil tho world
except my ambition. I want to bo some
bodysomebody worth while. The way Is
open If only I mnrry Mrs. Qrey She
has virtually told me that ns her husband
her whole million will be at my com
mand If I don't marry her, what chance
have I? The ten ears I must starve to
make myself a lending lawyer will put
mo hopelessly out of the rnco. Now I can
win almost nnvthlng political If I con
afford to tnko It. Mcro money docs not
tempt mo so very much but power!
that Is the thing I crave. Besides, I
can't bear to think of Etta waiting, work
ing, fading, for me when she might bo
nanny In a. home of her own If I were
out of the way."
"I don't think she'd mind," Bemls said
dryly "When may I look forward, Jack?
And docs Etta know?"
"Go and tell her you arc so sure'"
Merton burst out "As to cards there
will be none. Wo start we start for
California ns soon as tho wedding Is
over."
"So you came for my advice after tho
fact. I supected ns much," Bemls said,
his mouth hardening. "I don't wish you
Joy, Jack! you don't deserve It. You ate
throwlnc aw.i n nearl among women be-
causo you arc vnln enough to bellove that
you havo In you the makings of a great
man. Etta might have made a great man
of you at any rate, she would have mndo
you n man. This other one will make you
nn article of 'bigotry and lrtue' some
thing dearer than her parrot, n little bet.
tcr than her l.ipdog. You'll havo a lap
dog's ease, but you won't fit the position
you're too big nnd bulking made too
much like a man "
"Stop! I won't hear that. een from
you," Merton said, hoarsely. Bemls swung
on his heel. "1 npologlzo for saying it
to myself," he sald, walking away.
Flvo years after his wedding day he
recalled tho moment, the trivial action,
with a mad longing to tient the original
as then he had been tempted to treat tho
portrait Ho had Indeed found himself
ranking between tho household parrot
and lapdog, albeit he had the freest pos
sible hand at tho Grey money. That was
his only freedom. Mrs. Merton laid claim
to the greater part of his waking hours.
She was a shallow creature, kindly
enough, but forever ciavlng change,
amusement, the diversion of new faces,
new scenes. To her way of thinking the
end and the aim of manhood was either
to make money or, having It ready made,
to spend It
"I wont have you bother with politics
only low people go into them," she had
said airily, before the honeymoon was
out. Even the prospect of being some day
Mrs. Ambassador hod not mado her
change. "I want to have good times now
not wait for them till I'm old and hag
gard," she had said. It was, tho same
with his profession or any business ven
ture. "I am business enough for you,"
his wife piotested, adding In tho next
breath: "Besides, what other business
would bring you $1,000,000 before you have
one gray hair?"
Outwardly an enviable mortal, he was
sick and tired of everj thing most of all
himself. Now and again ho sighed for
the stings, the limitations of tho old
times and caught himself wondering how
It would i-eem to bo free. He knew noth
ing of Henrietta. Theie was an agree
ment between him and his wife upon one
point If no other. She was firm that they
would neither ask nor hear anything of
his old friends, his native place.
rihe was forever taking up things and
dropping them. Thus she came to own a
fever for coaching. In bright, early au
tumn weather she planned a long drive
across country, ono that would take at
least a month. Merton fell In with her
plan, he knew piotest was Idle. And
thus In tho middle of his Journey ho came
to knov fully what he had thrown away.
It was a mile out of a thriving railway
town when the coacli had lost llnch-pln
and was disabled that a storm drove its
occupants to tho shelter of the nearest
house, a pretty villa, spacious but unpre
tentious, with gay autumn flowers all
about it, and thrifty trees tin owing up Its
red roof and gray walls There was a
rocking horse upon the piazza, a baby's
cap lying limp on the tall, and the woman
who nnswered Mrs. Merton's Imperious
knock held the baby itself in the hollow
of her arm as she flung the door hospitably
open and said: "So the storm is to blow
me good In the sight of old friends. Don't
you lemember Etta Bruce, Mrs. Merton?
I'm Mrs. Bemls now and very glad to
see you. Come In. I shall keep you all
night. Ned will not be home until almost
9 He went to see the Governor today,
and I know he would never forgive me
If I let you go away without seeing him."
Then she shook hands with Merton as
calmly as though they never had been
more than casual acquaintances, He
found himself catching his breath aa he
looked at her. She was less fresh than
of old, but so wonderfully, spiritually
beautiful, with the beauty of -mother love,
mother happiness.
"I needn't ask you how you are, Etta,"
said Mrs. Mertcm "No wonder you're
happy, though, with two children," as a
sturdy little lad came shyly through the
Inner door to ambush himself In his
mother's skirts
"I'se free years old and goln' to be a
man whan I drows up," he volunteered,
when Mrs, Merton had coaxed him Into
finding his tongue.
Merton winced as he heard the prattling
voice. Tho old love was dead, with so
much else that was tyst In him, but still
there were some faint stirrings of ambi
tion He was wondering If, Indeed, the
woman he had loved and left might not
have made him, too, a man.

Ono very tailored lady attracted much
attention a thlnE which most New Tork
women seem to enjoy. I mentally called

so trig looking. Her suit was mado of
