CHRISTIAN on LOVE.

CHRISTIAN on LOVE. n
sticks TO the statements Which He
Made IT Des Moines.
Emporia, Kas., May 30.-Prof. Oscar
Chrisman was interviewed regarding
his recent paper before the mothers
congress at Des Moines. Not less than
100 letters and kilograms from prominent
women of all sections of the country,
every one OF which commended him,
sustained him in the position he took
and thanked him for what some termed
his bravery in telling the truth to the
mothers of America, have been received
by him. Previous to showing these let
tiers your correspondent was pledged
not to give the names Of the letter writ
ers publicity. He also furnished for
publication the following signed state
lment. The professor and family are
lent, who had talked with Mrs. Chris H
man about the paper. She says she ful-t|
1 ly concurs in all her husband says. She
thinks, however, that many do not thor
oughly understand the ideas her hus-
band had in mind, hut hopes the follow
ling will make 1t more clear:
Woman is in love always. II she
has no husband or child to love, or a
4 brother or sister or a father or a
imother, she takes some cnild, or cat
or dog or a horse or something else.
4 She must have an object on which to
bestoM' her love. Man never loves. He
only reasons. What in man is some
4 times designated love is nothing further
A than the sex feeling. If the man the
Il woman loves should be transformed into
4 a woman she would love him still. IT
a the woman the man loves would be
4 traSs sformed into man, he would no
longs. love her, as his love is sex attrac-s
{ Ition, while woman's is love in the true
y sense. am prepared to stand by my
4 statements. They are true. am not
y willing tho, to have my statements mis-
: interpreted. My paper contained so
much other mat Ts that was compelled
to make my statements short and strict
q ly to the point. i repeat, too, that 1
y was treated most kindly by the ladies,
and. altho their discussions were very
spirited, yet at no time We're they any
Thing more than Of the most ladylikel

ljourned, I was treated most cordially
by every. one, and did not receive one

: one of the greatest truths in mankind
!. that man is reason and woman is love,
; and that mans feeling for woman is
sex attraction, and that woman's feel.
