It may mean not only A money loss but also the loss of an article which money cannot replace The cause of the trouble may be thoughtlessness, fatigue or the lack of a shopping bag.

DorothyDix He as Interesting When Talking Politics as When Making Love?—Do You Love Him for Himself? Gives Test for Real and Syn- thetic Product How to Tell Lasting Love. YOUNG woman asks me if I can give her any reliable meuns by which she can diagnose her own feelings and tell whether she is in love or not. Shie says that she is engaged to be married to a nice young man, but that she does not thrill at his approach as the heroines of novels do under like circumstances, and this leaves her mind in doubt as to the real state of her feeling: I would that I could answer my correspondent’s query definitely with a follow-this-rule-and-you-can’t-fail formula for ascertaining whether 'a heart has sustained a compound fracture from Cupid's dart from which it will never recover, or whether it has merely got a scratch-wound that will heal over \ ool There is no other pipece of information so important or that could be valuable to her, or to any other woman, as to be able to tell whether she is really in love or not. Most of the domestic misery that we see about us is the direct result of people having made mistakes in this important subject. They interpreted their symptoms erroneously The danger of mistaking “near-love” for the genuine article is one o which womankind is peculiarly liable, since women spend their lives in seeking love und they are so anxious to find it that they are apt to pick up any sort of a pinch-beck article and delude themselves into the belief that it | is fhe real thing.

When they return from their trip her younger. sister, Natalic, marries. John has become interested n a charming widow, Nina Price, on their trip to Havana. and Helena confides in Natalie, who advises her to fight for him if she cares enough Helena turns herself into a spider woman, weaving a web. She first tries indifference, but it seems to do no good, for Jokn departs on a busi- ness trip to the coast, and visits Nina in Denve She encourages him to make love to her. and on his return he is about to ask Helena for his freedom when she tells him she no longer loves him, and asks for a di- vorce. Of course, he leaps to the conclusion that there is some one clse, and she lets him belicve it. She goes out to stay with Natalie in the coun- try, and her attitude toward him hurts John’s pride and piques his in- terest. When she comes to the city to talk over business affairs with him he realizes that he cares more than he has realized, and out of a sky makes love to her. She repulses him with pretended indignation. He receives a letter from Nina telling him she is married, and is amazed becausc he doesn’t care. Natalie goes to lunch him one day, and tells Helena has quarreled with her best beloved. She advises him to try win her back, and he determines to try. He finds an opportunity to tell her the truth, and Helena feigns in- difference CHAPTER LILI The Fly Is Caught. Any woman who has ever humbled to the ground by the man she loves and later has a chance to humble him would have no difficulty in understanding the feeling of exult ancy that surged through Helena. She had woven her web and the fly had drifted into it. In that mo- ment of triumph she longed for the strength to let him go out of her life. What a satisfaction it would be if she were able to do that! But she loved him. He meant more to her than any one else in the world. And she realized in that moment that the of the web must be con- tinued. He must never know that she had tricked him, and she must always make him think that he cared more for her than she did for him. She didn’t think it was fair, but just the ‘same it was life.
