If she wasn't, she wouldn't have to faiut in their

The view of second marriage taken by Miss Rives
in her story is for the first time given
to the world, but 1t has been expressed
countless times by the most pure minded women.
Second marriage is a Dissertation to a womans na-
ture. Love, to a woman, means faith or nothing at
all.
The oldest criticism given Miss Rives Is that q
young girl should not write as she has DONE she be-
ing young girl has nothing to do with it, The artist
who gives us work with low, immoral tone should
be conc emned regardless of age but age size has
nothing to do with the phases OF feeling a writer
