Eyes of Youth 1 Out of the East the wise men came. Out of the East knowledge of the spiritual has reached us. In the East holy men spend their lives in search for perfection.

2 On a pinnacle of the Himalaya mountains, where the earth dream reaches out to touch the stars, is ever kept burning the light of divine brotherhood.

3 Here are to be found those mysterious men who live to give spiritual aid to all who serve their brothers.

4 A disciple. Vincent Serrano.

5 "The time has come when we must go forth -- can there be peace when so many  suffer? Shall we be saved and hear the  whole world cry?"

6 "There will be no welcome for thee in the Western World -- thy ways will be strange - only as thou canst amuse canst thou hope to hold their interest -- so, take with thee this fakir's pack."

7 In the Western World where the eyes of men have been blinded to the things of the spirit by the cruel struggle for gold.

8 And in this struggle the souls of little children are forgotten, until their thoughtless acts reflect its cruelty.

9 "Tie it on."

10 "Gee - he ain't got no tail."

11 Gina Ashling -- one whose eyes have not been blinded by the material things

Clara Kimball Young.

12 "No dog with no tail ain't got no rights."

13 Peter Judson, a civil engineer.

Edmund Lowe.

14 "You're a lucky little beggar to have such a beautiful Princess     adopt you."

15 "Why must people be cruel and cause so much unhappiness! - If I could only find a way to help!"

16 The first far-off cry of a pure heart asking for guidance that he has heard in months of wandering.

17 "Now we needn't wait any longer - this makes our marriage possible - won't you --?"

18 "You won't mind being poor for a change, will you?"

19 Asa Ashling, Gina's father, whose eyes have grown too dim to look ahead.

Sam Sothern.

20 Kenneth Ashling, his son, full of the dreams of youth.

Gareth Hughes.

21 "Why won't you give me a chance to show what I can do - with modern methods and efficiency "

22 "Modern impudence! --- Just see how fast your efficiency can take you out of this office!"

23 Where chocolates and novels are making a lasting impression.

24 Gina's sister - Rita Ashling.

Pauline Starke.

25 "Ask Gina to come to the office immediately."

26 One of the things that money has bought for Robert Goring, a typical wise man of the West.

27 Robert Goring, a type that believes "every- thing has its price."

Ralph Lewis.

28 Louis Anthony, assistant cashier of the Vanfield Bank.

Milton Sills

29 "I hear old Ashling's affairs    are in a bad way."

30 "--- the directors decided to call his loans yester- day --- it will be awfully      hard on Gina."

31 Money vs. Happiness

32 "We are never beaten until we think we are,    father "

33 "Gina, you don't realize how serious it is if only you would marry Mr. Goring - our troubles     would be over."

34 " why not let me accept Mr. De Salvo's offer of an operatic career? - if I succeed -"

35 Paolo de Salvo, maker of operatic stars.

William Courtleigh.

36 "With such a voice - you cannot refuse to come with me to Paris and study!"

37 "I think it's selfish of Gina to think of leaving us."

38 "I must talk it over  with my father."

39 "You grab it, Gina! -- We can take care of ourselves. Don't you waste your talents on this one-horse town."

40 "Your daughter is entitled to the opportunity - you will never regret it."

41 "It's out of the question --I have other plans for      my daughter."

42 Anthony offers the only thing that costs nothing -- advice.

43 "Can't you see it's your duty to remain with your family?"

44 "Duty! If I could only look into the future ---"

45 "--- if your mother were alive it would  be different."

46 "Gina, you know I love you and hope some day "

47 "I did not mean to frighten the young lady -- I merely meant to ask for bread."

48 "Do not trouble, it is but a moment's weakness -- I have traveled a long way."

49 Detained in New York by the final nego- tiations for the South American contract --

50 " I am coming on the ten o'clock train to get your father's consent."

51 "Something dreadful has happened - I can't marry you. Father - Rita - and Kenneth - they need me now - it's my duty "

52 "Duty! Are you going to sacrifice both of us?"

53 "If I only knew which path to take "

54 "Perhaps I can help you."

55 "I'm afraid you can't. If I only had to think of myself - I wouldn't     hesitate."

56 "I don't know what I wouldn't give to see a few years ahead - just a glimpse - but that's impossible "

57 "With this, I can help you to project yourself forward - say, five years - you will see what those five years have made of you - whether or not your spirit has gone   forward and upward."

58 "You mean that if I de- cide to do a definite thing, I can see what the consequences would be -and decide differently?"

59 "It is the effect the decision will have on your soul - it is the spirit only that     matters."

60 "You shall have three opportunities --- use    them wisely."

61 "Is it my duty to remain at home?"

62 "This will show you. Believe and desire with a pure heart."

63 THE PATH OF DUTY

64 The results of five years of duty to her family.

65 The only occupation left to Gina after illness had ruined her singing voice.

66 "Children, before I give you a half-holiday to see the circus ---"

67 "- so the board has engaged another teacher. This letter will explain     our action."

68 The years have increased Anthony's bank account -- and his selfishness.

69 "I knew you liked me - but - I thought it was Gina you wanted     to marry."

70 "I - I was fond of Gina - but - she's changed - she's old --- it's you I    want to marry."

71 " so you will have a new teacher Monday - it seems I'm too old-     fashioned --"

72 "--- promise me you will be nice to the new teacher -- and never-forget me -- I love you all ---"

73 Duty done in violation of the laws of life is a weak yielding to the selfishness of others.

74 "So this is what Louis meant when he asked me to wait for him."

75 "It isn't jealousy, dear --- but I don't want you to make the same mistake I made "

76 "Don't turn from me, Rita - I need your love now more than ever."

77 "So this is what you meant when you told me it was my duty to remain with my family - and wait for you."

78 "Just because you've ruined your life, why d'you want to spoil  my happiness?"

79 "Gina, I have always loved you --- I can't let you go away with De Salvo if you will only wait -"

80 "Here is the contract --- I sail Saturday - you will let me have my answer tonight?"

81 "Mr. De Salvo is urging me to accept an operatic career."

82 "Did I not once have the pleasure of hearing you play in India?"

83 THE PATH OF AMBITION

84 Ambition nearly realized after four years work at a sacrifice --?

85 Kenneth's studio in Paris -- another drain on Gina's purse.

86 "Then maybe this will convince you."

87 "It's an outrage to let Rita live with a woman who has become notorious!"

88 The cost of ambition is never realized until too late.

89 " if that article were true I wouldn't   want to live!"

90 "Do you suppose I could keep the whole family on my salary?  have you learned nothing about life?"

91 "Then you mean to say it's true?"

92 " if I'm to be a money machine - leave the method      to me!"

93 "Another word from you  and you'll earn your own living."

94 "I'm not going to hurt you - I'd rather be dead than see you lead such a life!"

95 " so at last you have ruined me - you Jezebel!"

96 " and what have you done to me?"

97 "You were a nobody and I made you a great artist."

98 "Yes --- but you made me some- thing else first."

99 "Don't worry talk it over with  your daughter."

100 "Can't you see, Gina, that your marriage to Mr. Goring means everything to us?"

101 "Of course this crystal business is nonsense -- but if you'll persuade Miss Ashling to marry     me -- I ---"

102 "I will show Miss Ashling what wealth can do for her."

103 "Permit me to quote from your own religion: 'Ye shall know the truth and the truth shall make ye free'."

104 THE PATH OF WEALTH

105 Loneliness - - the fruit of three years of wealth without happiness.

106 "Mrs. Louis Anthony   - madam."

107 "Louis has become impossible -- I've made up my mind to get a separation."

108 "You're both young - don't do anything hasty ---"

109 "You know, dear there must be sacrifices  on both sides "

110 The reason for Mrs. Goring's loneliness.

111 "We can't go on like this --- you must find a way to get rid of your wife."

112 The unwelcome visitor.

113 "I'll not stand for your sister's interference -  you're coming home        with me."

114 "Gina has nothing to do with it ---"

115 "You're to blame - I'll never rest until   I get even."

116 Goring finds a more than willing ally.

117 "If you put this through for me I'll go the     limit for you."

118 Clarence Morgan, a cabaret parasite. Rudolfo Valentino.

119 "My name is to be kept out of this."

120 "Give this money   to Morgan."

121 "I am motoring in from the country --- please remain at home I want to talk to you "

122 "This is Dr. Grant speaking your husband has been seriously injured -"

123 " at Pearson's road-house --- Mr. Brown's room, A-4."

124 "Is he badly injured,     doctor?"

125 "The doctors are holding a consultation in there."

126 "Darling, I know you love me - but what of your husband?"

127 "Thanks, Louis. I have suspected this for some time."

128 Judge Singleton's  chambers.

129 "I decline to answer on the grounds that it might --- incrimi-       nate me."

130 "The plaintiff rests."

131 "I fail to see the slightest   evidence of conspiracy.    Motion denied. Call      your witnesses."

132 "Mrs. Goring, will you please take the stand?"

133 "She admits it."

134 "I admit nothing! You have permitted these contemptible hirelings to swear away my   reputation ---"

135 "You sit calmly by while a woman's name is bespattered by a man without honor --- and  without conscience."

136 "Silence, Madame -- or I shall grant Mr. Goring the divorce!"

137 " and brand me faithless to one man -- and fair game for    every other!"

138 "Madam, you must observe the decorum of this court      of justice."

139 "Justice - if this be justice then God help every woman!"

140  GUILTLESS!

Condemned by the merciless judge, Public Opinion -

'To hell for life and no parole!'

141 Deserted by her friends and even the family for which she sacrificed herself.

142 Dick Brownell of the Central office.

Norman Selby.

143 "I'm just out of the hospital. I used to get odd jobs singing but my voice is gone."

144 "It's stopped raining now - let me go home."

145 "You don't look like a woman that would steal --- you're on the level,    aren't you?"

146 "I come here to laugh at these fool women - who never stop to think that all they have depends on the selfish whim of      some man."

147 "I've got a laugh coming       haven't I?"

148 "Gina! I've looked everywhere for you!"

149 "Don't you know me, Gina? Think back - it's Peter."

150 "I'm not going to lose you again - there's still happi-   ness for both of us."

151 "--- no happiness for me! - I'm tired - so tired ---"

152 "Peter, don't you ever dare to leave me!"

153 "Love with wisdom is the secret of life. Weigh well what you have seen judge not from the material    but the spirit."

154 "Find out your daughter's decision  and we'll discuss your affairs later."

155 " but I can't marry   Mr. Goring. Money isn't all of life - it's the      least of it!"

156 "That Hindu double-  crossed us!"

157 "Father, nothing ever came of doing the wrong thing - even   to save others."

158 "There is your answer if you will only see things with the eyes of youth!"

159 "With Kenneth's youth - and your experience - there's nothing you can't      accomplish!"

160 "The Consolidated will take over your business for a   half-interest "

161 "I wanted to tell you this morning but you wouldn't let me - it means modern methods - efficiency ---"

162 "How can I thank you for the service you've done me? - If I could only help others as you have helped me!"

163 "This is but a toy - tell others to look into the pure crystal of their own souls and the Great Spirit behind the veil of destiny shall guide their       every step."

164 "May the blessings of the Everlasting rest upon you."

165 "He helped me to look into the future - if others could have the same opportunity - how much unhappiness  could be avoided."
