THEFOUR OFHEARTS
A SERIAL OF YOUTH AND ROMANCE
By VIRGINIA VAN DE WATER
CHAPTER VIII
(Copyright, 1918, Star Company)
The question, that Cynthia, had
asked mentally recurred to her mind
many times during her first week In
the Livingstone home.
She and Dora were constantly to
gether and talked frankly and free
ly to each other of their affairs. Yet j
Uora betrayed no sign of the sell- I
consciousness common to an engag- !
ed girl when her betrothed is men- j
tioned. She referred to Milton as
she would have referred to a girl
friend.
A day or two before Van Saun's
return to the city, Cynthia asked
Dora if she had a picture of him.
"I'm curious to know what your
fiance looks like," she confessed, "I
haven't seen a photograph of him in
your room, have I?"
Dora shook he£ head. "No, I j
haven't a thing that really Jooks
like lihn. I have a few snapshots ;
tak?n with some o£ the rest of us—- j
groups, you know. But they do not
do him justice. Come along, and I'll I
show them to you."
The pictures which she drew from j
her desk were like many other am- I
ateur efforts—poorly taken and bad- t
ly printed. The man whom Dora
designated as "Milton" was evident
ly tall and broad-shouldered. But
one could scarcely tell whether the
features were good or bad.
"If you knew him well already,
you'd recognize him," Dora remark
ed. "Otherwise you'd never guess
who he is. I suppose I really ought
to have asked him to have his pic
ture taken for me. That's the cor
rect thing for an engaged girl to
do, isn't it?"
i "I should think you would want
to have his photograph where you
could look at it often," Cynthia ob
served.
Dora shrugged her shoulders. "Oh.
I don't need that to remember how
he looks. I've known him for so
long that I can recall every feature.
So I never thought of asking him
for his photograph."
"But he has yours, hasn't he?"
Cynthia inquired .interested in what
was to her a novel state of affairs.
The Incident Recalled
"Yes—at least he has one taken
several years ago—when I was at
school. I gave It to him one Christ
mas. But I don't believe he has it
with him. He never thought It a
good likeness anyway."
"He is handsome, isn't he?" Cyn
thia queried.
Dora laughed and pinched her
cousin's cheek. "I declare I believe
you are actually so much interested
in my engagement that you want to
know just how the victim looks!
Well, he's six feet tall, broad-shoul
| dered, with light, curly hair—that is,
with hair that waves a little, and
with very blue eyes. I don't think
men often have very blue eyes—do
you ?"
Cynthia reflected for a moment.
"No, I don't think most grown men
have very blue eyes," she admitted.
"I was just trying td think if I
know any who have. I saw a man
somewhere recently whose eyes were
as blue as a child's. Now I remem
ber! It was in the hotel just before
I came away. I dropped a letter—
your letter, by the way—when I was
coming from the office, and a good
looking chap suddenly picked it up
for me. He had very blue eyes. I

remember noticing them at the j
time."
"How romantic!" Dora exclaimed.
"And then what happened?"
"Nothing," Cynthia said carelessly,
"except that he walked off in one |
direction, and I in another."
"Pshaw!" Dora frowned in dis- |
appointment. "I hoped you were go- 1
ing to tell me that he had said— |
"Pray, fair maid, what may your ;
name be?"
"Goose!" Cynthia ejaculated. "You j
have a vivid imagination. Tell me 1
some more about the way your best
beloved looks."
"There's nothing more to tell,"
Dora said. "You'll see him soon,
anyway, and can judge for your
self You'll like him. Most people
do." Cynthia recalled these words
the next evening when, as she jvas
sitting in her room writing, a maid ]
announced to her that "Miss Dora j
wanted her please to come down to I
the library."
"Mr. Van Saun's calling," the girl ;
explained, "and Miss Dora's asking
for you."
Cynthia hesitated. Milton Van
Saun had telephoned to Dora late
this afternoon, saying that he was
back in town and would call this
evening. Therefore, right after din
ner, Cynthia had slipped away to
her room that the lovers might meet
unobserved by an outsider. Mr. and
Mrs. Livingstone were dining out
to-night.
Dora Calls <
"Tell Miss Dora that I have a let
ter to write, but will be down in a
little while," she said now.
She took as long as she could to
finish her letter to Mr. Blake. She
hated the idea of intruding upon the |
reunion of long-separated lovers. ]
She had not finished writing when
she heard Dora's voice.
"Cyn!" she called. "Come down
stairs; I want you to know Milton,
and ho wants to know you."
There was no help fQr it. With a
sigh of chagrin, Cynthia closed the
desk and went slowly downstairs.
Outside the library she paused.
The curtains were drawn shut, and
she feared to break in upon a love
scene.
But Dora had heard her step and
summoned her.
"Come on in, Cyn Milton's dying
xo meet you."
Pushing aside the portieres, Cyn
] thia Dong entered, then stopped as
a tall form stepped forward.
"Cynthia," she heard Dora say,
"this is Milton Van Saun. Milton,
this is Cynthia."
Cynthia laid her hand in the one
stretched out to her. then, looking
up, found herself gazing straight
into the eyes of the man into whose
eyes she hifd gazed for a moment
in the lobby of the hotel on her
last evening in Chicago.

LIFE'S PROBL
ARE DI
By MRS. WILSON WOODROW
Dysippos of Likyon one time
carved a statue, the figure of worn- .j
an standing on tiptoe to indicate j
that she was always running and:
with wings on her feet to show that j
she passed like the wind. She car- j
ried a razor in her hand to signify;
that she struck more sharply than
any steel. Her hair was worn Ions;
In front so that she might be read-1
ily seized by anyone she approached,;
but short behind to Indicate thatj
once she had flitted by on her
winged fee, no one was able to hold |
her. And on the pedestal Lysippos;
cut this Inscription: "My name, O
stranger, is Opportunity, controller
of aii things, and I stand here as a;
lesson to thee!"
1 never run through a morning's;
batch of letters from my corre-*
spondents, but that I am reminded
of that statue and the Inscription
which the wise old Greek placed be-|
neath it. For all the manifold and]
varying problems which are submit-1
ted to me may be summed up In!
the single phrase, missed opportu-l
nities.
Controller of all things! Was
there ever a more apt designation? I
For Opportunity as she hurries by I
carries in her arms love, happiness,!
success, the realization of one's
dreams, al! the blessings of life.
And contrariwise, if one fails to
clutch that bobbing forelock at the j
crucial moment and hang on to it,
the results are failure, disappoint
ment, regret, nnhappiness, all thei
evils of Pandora's box.
All of which sounds I admit a bit ]
!!ke the empty platitudes of the i
copybook; but even the copybookl
maxims have a practical application, |
if we will only forget the cramped |
fingers and vengeful spirit with i
which they were instilled into our I
consciousness, and will put them to [
actual use.
So to say, "Seize the opportu- j
nity," means very little; for we are j
all of us eager enough to do that.
It is the thing which all the world's
n seeking. The one great demand
of the ages has been for an equal
ity of opportunity—for nations, for
racs, for religions, for individuals,
i regardless of birth or worldly cir
! cumstances.
It has been the.hub of every re
: form movement from Magna Charta
! down. It is the supreme issue over
i which the world is to-day at war. i
: It lias come to be the issue on al-1
most every great decisive battlefield
of modern times; at Yorktown, at
Waterloo, at Appomattox, at Santi
ago and Manila.
And the world counting its gains
presses on still more rapidly toward
its goal. Religious tolerance is
practically won. The even more
stubborn prejudices of race are slow
ly giving way. The political and
economic equality of the sexes maS
be regarded as assured.
The security and independence of
I the nations, little and big alike,

will be settled and safeguarded at j
the eventual peace conference; and '•
from the present upheaval too we
can foresee many social and civic j
changes which will tend toward of- |
fering a fairer field to ambition and I
initiative, no matter where it may
be found.
Yet\With all these advantages the,
personal, the Individual question
shows no very clear sign of being ]
solved, and I sometimes doubt if it \
ever will be. It is one thing to j
make opportunities equal to all in
dividuals; it is quite another to I
make the individual equal to hls|
opportunities.
You may find examples to indi
cate what I mean in almost every
family, school or business house.
Why under the same environment
md with practically the same ad
vantages and equipment should one
son or daughter succeed and anoth
er fail, one pupil progress and an
other fall back, one clerk or ap
prentice advance and another stick
where he started? Ths answer of I
course is opportunity. But in the ;
cases cited the opportunities to all
intents and purposes are equal
you can even handicap the winner
in that respect, and it will make no
diqerence in results.
It is in short the personal equa
tion that decides the matter. One
man sees and grasps the opportunity
when it conies to him; the other Is
too blind, or too much occupied
with other things to realize that op
portunity has brushed him with her
wings, or, piaybe too lazy to stretch
out his hand an<J clutch her.
"I'm in conference now," he
sends back word by the office boy.
"Tell the lady to call again." And
lighting another cigarette, he goes!
beck to wishing that he had a mil- I
lion dollars.
There are those who claim thatj
opportunity has utterly passed them
by. "I never had a chance," they
wail. For them there is only the
short and ugly word, or else they
belong to the class which having
eyes see not, and having ears do
not hear. Once at least to every
man and nation comes the moment
to decide; and ftfr the most part
opportunity is sis persistent as a
dunning bill collector.
The question that really bothers
most of us, though, is how to recog
nize Opportunity as her actual self
when she goes swishing by In met
eor flight, and not by mistake to
grab some masquerading counterfeit
i who will only succeed in leading us
Into the ditch. We can't hesitate
or debate or stop long to consider;
we all know that. It's the cave,
man's style of wooing, the quick eye
and the ready hand that captures
Opportunity. But suppose, since she
comes in .so many baffling disguises,
that instead ol' the desired princess
one should find he had been tricked
Into carrying oft only a homely serv
ing maid, as used to happen so often
m the old romances.
The preventive for that is to
make yourself so familiar with the
appearance of the,lady, to come to
know her so well—voice, looks, man
ner and gestures—that no imposter
could successfully deceive you, any
represent himself as your wife, your
sister or your mother.
Habit; that's the solution to the
difficulty as it is to most everything
else in life. Get into the habit of
meeting Opportunity, study her ways
and lier characteristics, and you will
run email risk of not choosing the
the test.
The trouble is that so few of us
comprehend what opportunity real
ly is. We regard it as a fleeting
and fortuitlous conjunction of cir
cumstances which .presents itself to
!: man or woman only once or twice
in a lifetime, and upon which hinges
pome great deed decisive of the des-

truth is that Opportunity is a daily,

us, appearing often in such humble,
commonplace guise that we never
