She knows that I love her, but she stubbornly re fuses to make it just a little easier for me to ask.

Why do they affect love for others and an In difference to each other? Why will they take a sort of savage delight in being able to make each other feel the most terrible mental anguish? Why do they act this way?" Why? Because they are in love, and love is a sort of sweet Insanity in which its victims do such things and say such things, that If the man were to behave In a similar fashion in busi ness he would have to retire to private life in a week, and if a girl were to treat her friends as she treats hei lover she would soon be hopelessly friendless. Love, like wine, goes to the head. At a time when its victims should bo as cool headed as If their lives de pended on being well balanced, they know neither sense, nor judgment, nor cautiou, nor sympathy, nor under standing. They become almost vicious in trvlng to torment those their hearts are crying loudest for, a viciousness that has l'or its only redeeming quality Iter Believe Betty" was put back in I her hands. ( Like all the rest of us who have had prize scenarios come back, she j knew beyond a doubt that the vil- I iainous producers had kept her scen- I ario just long enough to steal its I good points, and in her next visit to ja moving picture theater her susplc | ions were confirmed. "Betty was young and pretty." she sobbed, "and 1 disguised her as an old maid that she might command a nephew just arriving from abroad to marry Betty; tho villain kidnaps 1 the nephew and throws him into a cel lar; there are au automobile chase, a ghost, a faded rose that serves as a clue, a lurking tiguro at moonlight, three murders, a long-lost brother, a I donation party ut .the preacher's, a | housebreaker, a chase by three po ; llcemen, a deathbed, a lost will, a I jealous husband, a twin sister, a I drowning, an innocent man accused, land the heroine is in the hero's arms |at last. And every play given this aft j ernoon had some of these in it, 'stolen from the scenario:" Alas, 'twas true, for there is sonie j thing from "Better Believe Betty" in i every play. • There is no use trying any more. 'Like the rest of us, Daysey Mayme is convinced that real genius'no longer I lias a chance. Its greatest desirability than indiffer ence. It is the last resistance before sur render. Without the formality of rea soning, every girl knows when she has confessed her love for a man she has lost a certain degree of her power over him. The certainty is never as powerful as the uncertainty. When he Is not sure of her love, he is hers to torment. When she is sure of it, it often happens that he becomes the tormentor, and to the end of her days, if she loves hbn, she must bear his tormenting with a sickening fear that he no longer loves her, and with a determination to keep that love if humility and self-sacriilce will serve. Courtship is the playtime of the heart, in which wounds are given ruthlessly, every wound to be salved and healed and forgotten when the confession of love comes later. The writer of this letter and his sweetheart are having In love's tor ment the happiest time of their life, but it will take the cold shower bath of matrimony to make them know it. smew GOUT 111 SIMPLE MODEL Many Beautiful Coatings Are Shown Now in the Spring Displays j 8199 Girl's Coat, 10 to 14 years.

Dixon, calling their attention to the tree treatment the State offers to ull indi gent sufferers from tuberculosis and requesting them to refer all poor per sons Buttering from this disease to the State dispensaries. The letter in part was as follows: "Dear Doctor: "The Commonwealth of Pennsylva nia is offering to its people, who aro suffering from tuberculosis and who have not sufficient means to secure for themselves the Bpecial treatment needed, greater opportunities than were ever offered before In this coun try. There have been provided three (8) modern sanatoria, located "at pluces convenient to every portion ofl the State, where treatment is abao lutely free. In addition, in order to provide for those who for any reason are not able to go away from home, j there has been organized a system of free dispensaries. Admission to the State sanatoria can be secured by ap plication at any of the dispensaries. At both dispensaries and sanatoria pa tients are accepted at all stages of tho disease. "Dispensaries. The dispensaries now number 114. There is at least one in each county, the number being regulated by the population of the district. "All that is necessary to secure ad mission to the dispensary is for the applicant to present himself and satis factorily answer the questions set forth on the various blanks. The dispensa ries do not accept for treatment any person who is not tuberculous, or whose circumstances are such that it would be no hardship to pay for the Bpecial attention demanded. Dispen sary physicians are forbidden tof ac cept as a private patient any one who has been enrolled at a dispensary. The home of each patient is visited by one of the department's visiting nurses, who carefully inquires into all tho cir cumstances of the case —financial as well as hygienic. Patients who are found to be in need of extra food sup plies are furnished by the dispensaries with from one to two quarts of milk a day. "The marked changes frequently seen in the manner of living of fami lies of dispensary patients are a tri bute to the success of the visiting nurses work. The work is of im portance not only for physical rea sons, but because it improves the gen eral sanitation of the community at large. Much valuable co-operation has been received from civic clubs and other philanthropic societies. "Dispensary physicians urge every applicant to enter a State sanatorium. We believe the sanatorium treatment is far preferable to any treatment at home. All admissions to the State sanatoria are through the dispensaries and any dispensary chief will be very glad, indeed,' to furnish you what ever information you may require, in addition to that given above. "The Commonwealth is most anx ious to secure your most earnest co operation in this great work of limit ing tuberculosis. Tuberculosis is fatal j to over 10,000 of our fellow Pennftyl-1 vunians every year and it has been es- j timated that the economic cost to the Commonwealth is in the neighborhood of $00,000,000 annually. If you have ia your vicinity, any poor persons suf ierlng from tuberculosis, we shall bo very glad if you will give them infor mation which will lead to their avail ing themselves of this great opportun ity for treatment. It is not intended as a charity, but as a measure of public defense against a disease, which, by its long chronic course, is peculiarly lia ble to render its victim and his fam ily financially unable to carry the bur den imposed. Your co-operation in referring patients to the State dispen saries and santoria, and In persuading them to remain under treatment a suf ficiently long time to acquire real ben efit therefrom, will materially improve the prospects of a successful cam paign.' lAMuseMemsi MAJESTIC To-day, matinee and night—"The Fire Brigade."

SOLDIER FIDDLERS The Orftheum Theater, this week, claims as one of its features an attrac tion that is a rattling novelty and one that is bound to create more talk about the city than anything that lias ap peared here in a long time. "The Old Soldier Fiddlers" are just what their name implies, a quartet of fiddlers who served in the Civil War and who are whitened with age. They tiddle indi vidually, and collectively many of the old-time Jigs and dances that bring back memories of the early Blxties when fiddling was fiddling and there wasn't any such thing as a violin. Three soldiers who fought with the North and two who fought with the South have laid away their arms and taken up the old fiddle, traveling to gether in one of the most emphatic pictures of forgotten hatred that the public has had since the war. The patriotic air that hovers over their work is far and away ahead of every thing that has been presented behind the footlights. It has the ring of real patriotism and usually brings the au dience to its feet. The mere sight of these old warriors, whose ages range from 70 to 80 years, is enough to in spire an American audience, and when they get the old fiddles to sending out the old-time tunes the house goes wild with enthusiasm. They appear in a scene representing the Gettysburg bat- I tletield, as it appeared July 1, 1913, at COIWATED, BILIOUS. HEADACHY?
