True Love.
The course of true love never did
and never can run smooth. If It did It
wouldn't be true love. The single
sine qua non of true love Is that
It shall not run smooth. For such is
the constitution of human beings.
When people set out to be friendly
and congenial they can succeed only
by keeping up a gentle hostility. Con-
sider the average evening call. How
tiresome It Is until some one starts an
argument or a of cards ts pro-
