TO the Editor:
To the young man who wishes TO be Informed
whether love Is falacy not, | should most
decidedly say that it is not. Now, suppose We
are in Bsbylonian marriage mart. only the
eligible girls are before Some are pretty,
some are not. The highest bidder can have the
girl he chooses. lie marrcs her. You must bear
in mind he has never met her before. lie thlnhs
she's nice, and after marrying her tries TO love
her nut It is impossible, Why? Because he
does not know her has not studied her habits,
not even her nature. knows nothing OF her
character. Suppose she turns out to be false.
Do you think you could love her then? De-
cidedy not. Love is when two persons ir-
resistibly drawn towards each other by the little
man Cupid They did not know each other. but
gradually they grew fonder and more arectionste.
until they could not live without each other.
This shows that love made them understand each
other. and fate willed it, or what does the poet
sing?
Love, sweet love. is poets theme.
Love. sweet love, is poets dream.
Surely your lady friend who thought she loved
you. and now denies the fact. never,
perenced true love. h think she needs to be
reused from her foolish uncertainty. Perhaps our
correspondent "Lovelace'' tell us something
about love" MAID MARION.

NATTER CTIBLE.
Nothing In Nature That Can He
Wholly Wiped Out.

An essential property of matter, but
which uoes not commend itself to SUPER
fetal observation, like those of extern
sion and resistance. is indestructibility.
So far as experiment and observation
can discover matter can neither be
created nor destroyed. On the surface
facts seem to contradict this assertion.
for any particular portion of matter may
be decomposed and resolved into it's
constituent parts. so that 1t seems to
have disappeared. because the form
under which We knew 1t is no longer
present.
In reality, however. no diminution in
the quantity of existing matter has
taken place. one proof of this is easily
afforded by combustion. IF we allow a
piece of wood. or coal or any com
bustible solid body, to burn away
there will, as we all know, be ashes
remaining. II. while the combustion Is
going on, We take means to preserve
not only the ashes, but also every part
of the body which would ordinarily be
dssipated as smoke and steam, and
then weigh all the different substances.
solid, liquid or gaseous, that we have
obtained, We shall lind the combined
weights equal to the original weight
of the body itself.-Good Words.
