LOVE'S SMALL IRONIES !
By BEATRICE FAIRFAX
Why in the human round of things
is the old Jingle sadly true —"For I
loved Tom and Tom loved Bee and
Bee loved Arthur and Arthur loved
me!"
Why is it one of life's pet ironies
that when a perfectly worth-while and
lovable man loves a girl she must
pour out her affections at the tramp
ling feet of some scoundrel?
And why, oh why, does the splendid,
fine, manly man pass by the charming
woman who would make him an ideal
male, and lavish his great gift of love
upon a peach-blossom person with a
butterfly soul?
Why? To keep the zest in life. To
keep us running after the rainbow
pot of gold. To keep us hoping for
the Idenl love and happiness that may
come to us. To add to living the
charm of uncertainty that life would
lack If all mating were a sane and
well-orilered thing where each of us
married the obvious person and set
lied down to the utter boredom of a
life like a series of blue-skied, sunlit
warm June days.
Because life is not an obvious, cut
to-measure thing: becuuse love is not
a well-ordered affair in which like
seeks like; because the human soul is
stimulated by "the gambler's chance"
of happiness, We escape perishing of
ennui.

To Put On Flesh
And Increase Weight
A Physician's Advice
Most thin people eat from four to six
pounds of good solid fat-making food
every day and still do not Increase in
weight lone ounce, while on the other
hand marty of the plump, chunky folks
eat very lightly and keep gaining ail
the time. It's all bosh to say that this
is the nature of the individual. It isn't
Nature's way at all.
Thin folks stay thin because their
powers of asslmilatiton are defective.
They absorb just enough of the food
they eat to maintain life and a sem
blance of health and strength. Stuffing
won't help them. A dozen meals a day
won't make them gain a single "stay
there" pound. All the fat-pr<oduclng
elements of their food Just stay In the
Intestines until they pass from the
body as waste. What such people need
Is something that will prepare these
fatty food elements so that their blood
can absorb them and de-oslt them all
about the body—something-, too, that
will multiply their red bl«ood corpuscles
and increase their blood's carrying
power.
For such a condition I always recom
mend eating a Sargol tablet with every
meal. Sargol is not. as some believe a
patented drug, but is a scientific com
bination of six of the most effective
and powerful flesh building elements
known to chemistry. It is absolutely
harmless, yet wionderfully effective and
a single tablet eaten with each meal
often has the effect of increasing the
weight of a thin man or woman from
three to five pounds a week. Sargol Is
sold by Geo. A. Oorgas and other good
druggists everywhere on a positive
guarantee of weight Increase or money
back.—Advertisement.

TUESDAY EVENING, HARRIBBURG TELEGRAPH DECEMBER 8, 1914.
When it seems not ironical and bit
ter jest, but cruel tragedy, that you
should love some one to whom you
feel sure that you could bring su
preme blessing with your love, the
while they love some worthless per
son, just make up your mind to these
things:
Out of the sorrow of hopeless love
strength, serenity, sympathy and
splendid lovableness may be brought
by the woman who is tine enough to
rise above sorrow Instead of letting
it drag her down.
In the consummation of what seems
perfect love the utter disappointment
of life might linger.
In losing the person you think you
might love—though you have noth
ing but your own fancy on which to
build—you are getting splendid train
ing to enable you to give the fulness
of love to the right man when he
comes.
It is a pretty wasteful proceeding
to go on cultivating a love that is
not wanted closing your eyes to
the things that might satisfy you if
you gave them a chance.
But when you get all through philo
sophizing there remains the supreme.
"WHY?" WHY—if I am given the
power of living, cannot 1 attract love?
asks one lonely heart. Why—if I
know I could love a man unselfishly
and strongly must he waste his afTec

Hade at Horn*
If some one in your family has an ob
stinate cough or a bad throat or chest
cold that has been hanging on and refuses
to yield to treatment, get from any drug
store 214 ounces of Fines and make it
into a pint of cough syrup, and watch
that cough vanish.
Pour the 2 ounces of Piner (50
cents worth) into a pint bottle and fill ,
the bottle with plain granulated sugar
«yrup. The total cost is about 54 cents,
and gives you a full pint—a family
supply—of a most effective remedy, at a
saving of $2. A day's use will usually
overcome a hard couph. Easily prepared
in 5 minutes—full directions with Pinex.
Keeps perfectly and has a pleasant taste.
Children like it.
It's really remarkable how promptly
and easily it loosens the dry, hoarse or
tight cough and heals the inflamed mem
branes in a painful cough. It also stops
the formation of phlegm in the throat
and bronchial tubes, thus ending the per
sistent loose cough. A splendid remedy
for bronchitis, winter coughs, bronchial
asthma and whooping cough.
Pinex is a special and highly concen- 1
trated compound of genuine Norway pint
extract, rich in guaiacol, which is so
healing to the membranes.
Avoid disappointment bv asking your
druggist for '"ZVi ounces of Pinex," and
do not accept anything else. A guarantee
of absolute satisfaction goes with this
preparation or monev promptly refunded.

tion on someone else who does not
care for him any more than he does
for me? pleads another. •
Humanity has not quite worked out
the answer.
It would be much more efficient to
turn your love where it is desired. It
may be wiser to give when you are
sure of receiving in return. It might
be pleasanter if the power of loving
postulated the power of attracting
love.
But as long as human nature re
mains human nature, a rose will be
lovelier because it does not live for
ever and because Its fragrance is
elusive and not to be reproduced. The
beauty of a suuset is enhanced by the
fact that it must soon fade. Sunshine
is more glorious because the storm
clouds are capable of blotting it out
in a short time.
The elusive, the unattainable, the
inaccessible, charm our hearts. We
all long for distant moons and cool
stars when grate tires and electric
lights are near at hand.
And in life's little ironies lie the
flavor of existence. So in the tricksi
ness of love lies much'of love's hold
upon our imaginations.
Had we never loved so blindly—
we had never loved so kindly, to re
arrange an old quotation.
It is love's elusiveness and mystery
that make life eternally charming.

Mark breakable article "fragile."
ar^c food "perishable."
Don't blame Uncle Sam In every
case of a lost Christmas package! Fol
low the rules laid- down and you not
only will insure the delivery of all gifts
sent through the mails, but will also
relieve the overworked lieutenants of
Santa Claus—the postal employes.
Every year hundreds of thousands of
Christmas packages are lost in the
mails through improper addressing,
insufficient postage or careless wrap
ping. Postmaster General Burleson in
Washington and the army of post
masters all over the country are issu
ing Christmas mail rules to guide gift
senders. Do your part and the postal
authorities will do theirs.
Careless addressing and insecure
wrapping of packages are two of the
greatest causes of lost gifts. The post
offices are annually confronted with
the problem of disposing of thousands
of parcels which have lost their tags
or outer coverings and have nothing
to identify either the addressee or
sender.
But aside from the question of the
delivery of gifts there is the matter of
consideration for the mall man. The
most appreciated Christmas gift that
the public can give him is aid in his
work. Early shopping not only aids
the girls behind the counter, but the
man who handles the mail as well.
From now until after New Year's he
will be the most overworked Individual
in the country, and the Yuletido for
him is often nothing short of a night
mare.
The parcel post people stand in the
front rank of the tollers. Their usual
Christmas work, heavy enough in It
self. Is rendered almost beyond human
possibility by the tardy sending of
packages. Every parcel should be
shipped at least three days ahead ot
time If it is to be in the hands of the
adressees by Christmas Kve. So "shop
early" and "send early," so that on
Christmas morning the mailman In the
office and tlie carrier who rings your
doorbell can say "Merry Christmas"
with a ring of truth.
Preparations are being made !n this
city for ail unparalleled rush of Christ
mas njall. Frank C. Sites, postmaster
expects that his office will handle dally
3,000 sacks of Christmas mail. To ac
commodate the rush the svstem of
handling the general mall has been
rearranged. The Harrisburg office will
use the Donaldson store apartment,
-04 North Second street, as a receiving
station for parcel post matter exclu.
slvely. This parcel post office will
likely open next Thursday.
