T* country thoroughly agrees with the President that Huerts is the issue. “We are true friends of the people of Mexico.” We) e Evening: World Daily ‘Magazin Cocky! are also convinced that true friendship could perform no kinder | service for Mexico than to pry Huerta out of it. Nor do we feel that enything we may wish to do for Mexico stands a chance #0 long as this self-styled President of a disrupted country thrusts himself be- | tween us and the people whose good will we are anxious to retain. | If anybody in Mexico will tell us how to extract Huerta without | pain, we will gladly operate along new linea. If there were any way | to convince the gréat body of Mexicana that so far from having de- signs against their national honor we are only trying to cleanse that | honor of the smirch which the presence of a Huerta puts upon it, this country would spare no expense to publish its intentions broad- cast and circulate them where they could be grasped. We wish we could be sure the Mexicans read more, thought; more and tried to understand themselves and us. If ever awakening common sense and enlightened patriotism really began to unite Mex- ico, Huerta would drop away like a scab from a healed wound. But meanwhile what are we todo? There seems to be no way to get at the thor without breaking the skin. ' If Mexico is to have our respect Huerta must cease his insolent pretensions to epeak for that nation. To go after Huerta, we must make s demonstration out of all proportion to the rascal’s value. Is it conceivable thet Mexico can continue to think a Huerta worth his keep? ns He has a good eye who is unable to discern war before ft is im eight. DON’T JOGGLE THE FIXED POST.

By Grace Aguilar. ; T 1s the fashion to deride woman's influence over woman; to laugh at female friendship; to look with acorn on all those who profess it. But perhaps the world at large little knows the effect of this influence—how often the unfermed character of a young, | timid and gentle girl may be influenced for good or evil by the power of an intimate female friend. ! There is always ‘to me # doubt of the warmth, the strength and purity of her feelings when a young girl merges into womanhood, passing over the; threshold of actual life; seeking omly the admiration of the other sex, watching for a husband or lovers, perhaps, and looking down on all female | friendship as romance and folly. No young spirit was ever yet satisfied | with the love of nature. 4 . | Friendship or love we must possess some good qualities to attract beyond the mere love of nature, Coleridge justly observes that “it is well ordered that the amiable and estimable phould have a fainter perception of their own qualities than | their friends have; otherwise they would love themselves, Now, friend- ship or love permits their doing this unconsciously.” Mutual affection is a tacit avowal and appreciation of mutual good qualities—perhaps friendship yet fhore than love, for the latter is far more €m aspiration, a passion, than the former and influences the permanent feverish state of excitement, often’ deeming herself the goddess, her lover the adorer. Whereas, it is her will that must bend to his, herself be abne- gated for him, P Friendship neither permits the former nor demands the latter. It influences silently, often unconsciously, perhaps; its power is never known until afterward. A girl Who stands alone, without asking or feeling friend- ship, is generally a cold and unamiable being so wrapt in self as to have no room for any person else, except, perhaps, a lover, whom she only seeks and values offering hie devotion to that same idol—self, Female frien: nok pee Sree much less, Under the magic of love « girl is generally in a niably to prov x And if he, who could portray every human passion, every sul of humanity from the whelming tempest of love to the Rend! cpap eead of envy and jealousy and hate, from the incomprehensible mystery of Hamlet's wondrous spirit to the simplicity of the gentle Miranda, the dove- Uke innocence of Ophelia, who could be crushed by her weight of love but not reveal {t—if Shakespeare scorned not to picture the sweet influences oe female SreneKieDlD, shall women pass it as a theme too tame, too idle for their pens Betty Vincent’s~ Advice to Lovers entirely justified in rebellt such inter rence. salina ose lovers are wise who the virtue of tolerance.
