The divorce evil is the direct result
ant OF lovcless marriages-marrisg
for money, position, power-marriages
OF convenience.
Where love is not. generally hate Is
found. and hate is the name OF one OF
the leading doors to the divorce court.
The husband hates and dcspises the

hate and fury.

can never harmonize in tone with the

From every viewpoint such a union
is unnatural.
