Genuine love is happiness; to conceive a
mere passion for another person is TO be
unhappy. The first IS coed wine. the other
vile. m~adening fusel.
"A victim of alcohol poison who had lost
the sense of hearing by the misuse of
stimuIsnts said to his physician: To hear
was good-it gave me wonderful Joy 10 bear
the birds sing and my friends talk, TO listen
to plays and operas-but It wasn't as good
as the bottles I used 10 drain.
After the victim of alcohol poison, let
the love-poisoned person speak. The follow

fer TO be unhappy viii her to being happy
with another"

Love a Pathological, Not
an Emotional Subject.

According to my investiga tons, in which
! am backed up by Professor Fore, poets
and romaBcers have no business with love
whRtever-love Is simply q pathological sub
ieot. which was treated altogether too long
from its emotional. tragical or eom!oal SIDE.
or from its moral and immoral aspects.
THAT in this Twentieth Century OF ours
love Is still regarded as g. miles or
harmful diversion. is one Of our most
dangerous inheritances from the Dark
Ages, an inheritance fastened and kept
alive by polite literature. As q matter Of
fact. love should be under The control Of
the Health Board, possessing full police
authority. for, in contradiction OF all pre-
vious writings on the subject. M. Fere and
myself. after Investigating love from every
conceivable standpoint. found It to be moth

Long hair IS a most efficient disease

WRITTEN o THE SUNDAY REPUBLIC.
A former st. Louis boy who snowballed
the Grand Duke Alexis when he passed
through the city, has written a novel, TO be
issued in September from the press of
Frederick A. Stokes & Co. of New York
under the appealing title, Come With Me

Despite tie Turbulence
of the Ancient CITY.

Romance, adventure and mystery, aside
from the historical color of a remote period,
are the qualities which will bid strongly for
public interest. 1t is full Of vivid DETECTION
Of the turbulence. the pathos, the sentiment
and poetry Of a de~ep-buried and weli-nigh
forgotten civilization. Mr.. Ward believed
that, when written, the story of the in
fuence of Babyloniap civilization upon the
world would astonish sociologists. This Is
the task he has completed.
The author was born on a louisiana
plantation forty-two years ago. He came to
St. Louis with his family from Quachita
Parish. near the close OF the war. The loss
of property. the unsettled state Of the South
and the lack of educational facilities in the
''piny hills" Of Louisiana at that time were
the causes of the removal. The family lived
for years on Olive street, between Twelfth
and Thiyfeenth.

his mind a trend TO which it has adhered.
Mr.. Ward went TO Colorado for his

AssyriolOgy the Recreation

Probably the ancients attracted the
writer because his surroundings were so
