THE LIFE OF LOVE, AND
WHAT IT DEPENDS ON
1t Can Be Killed by Kindness

I No sensible woman wants to be
treated as though she were merely a
thing To be petted and kissed and con
tinually made love TO.
II IL is possible TO cloy womans love
with sweets you can imagine how
painfully easy ii is TO satiate mans
love BY the same diet
Man Likes Snap Now and Then.
The man who finds love too sugary
sweet will pine for little wholesome
snap TO the domestic atmosphere
II woman elects 10 make her love
one continuous course of self-sacrifice.
TO give In always and never assert her
self and to be over-demonstrative in
her affection, man will accept it-but
he will prefer the society OF some
woman OF whom he Is not quite so
sure. The moment man feels too
sure OF woman he ceases to make
any effort to hold her.
! Have you ever seen child turn
carelessly away from a box of sweets
from which it has helped itself freely
and which it knew was still at its com
mand?
mat is exactly the way men ana
women feel about the love which
comes so easily as to lose its value.
Love Should be Fed Normally.
IL you want 10 keep love alive you
must neither overfeed nor neglect 1t.
The love that lasts is the love that is
treated tenderly. and yet with enough
stimulus to prevent II from dying from
sheer lack OF effort.
Make the man or woman you love
feel that in order TO hold your love
he or she must make some effort.
Remember that too much of Any.
thing, even love. is bad for us NOR
tails.
The Detroit times., 1909-03-01

lIDIlD you ever know man who
lIh was too good TO his wife?
lIuU know IL seems rather alb
surd question. but | know
such man. He IL killing
her love for him by these mistaken
kindnesses
From morning till night his one alb
sOrOing thought is her happiness
They are strangers in the towns
where they are living. and he is afraid
she may be lonely
He does not go regularly TO bust
ness. but when he does he calls her
TO the telephone half a dozen times
during the day TO know IL she Is all
right.
He is SO good TO me- she confided
to me, that | am ashamed to com.
plain; but, oh, II he would only leave
me To myself once in while. We
see SO much of each other, and it is
boring me TO death. Sometimes feel
as though | would give anything II
he would say something unkind.
don't believe with rueful laugh
that I'd even mind II he slapped me.
Dying Of Surfeit of Sweets.
That womans love is being done To
death by an unhealthy surfeit of
sweets. Her husband Is treating her
like baby rather than wife. He
is losing her respect by too servile
alteration.
healthy tonic OF Indifference on
his part would revive her love to an
astonishing degree.
Too rich and sweet a diet Is just
as bad for love as 1t is for anything
else.
Love is normal and should be treat
ed normally
Pretty speeches when too frequent
lose their charm.

Have We Too
- Many Selves?
Hypnotism Proves Our Ignorance
Concerning the Mystery OF
Personality.

If we are, after all. still ignorant OF
all the possible powers of the body,
how much more are we ignorant OF
The limits TO be set for the abilities
Of the self" which controls that body,
And especially does our ignorance APP
pear Overwhelming when we consider
as we have done that this self OF ours
Is not a single unit. but includes a
whole host OF "subliminal" parts. OF
which we have hardly as yet proved
the existence.
We already have, however, collec-
ton OF phenomena acting as a guide.
because they illustrate very unusual
abilities OF this same "subliminal self,
namely. the phenomena of hypnotism.
The hypnotic trance, we remember.
simply means. according to Myers the
DRY, that the subjects body is tenn.
porarily under the control of some one
OF the subliminal parts of his own
self"
Each of these selves which develop
under hypnosis has its own individ
uality. its own knowledge and feelings
and memories. AT one stage of hypno
sis, for example, the subject may be
under the control OF part of his sub
lminal self which we will call *.
TX" thinks that he Is professor so
and-so, OF the University of So-and-so
and he will act. speak, talk and think
as that professor would. Wake the
subject up, and he will have no mem
ory of his professor" state. when the
TX" part of his personality had con
troll but. put him back tby hypnotic
ing him AGAIN. into the tx" condition
and he will pick up again the pro
fessor" life just where he left of with
It little before. remembering all that
he did in his former trance, but moth
ing Of his own life outside it.-March

importance only as an indication Of
the opinions that are held in certain

this particular clique seems to have
taken exception &c the marriage OF
Lord Granard To Miss Mills. This set
is much concerned with politics, and
the kings master of the horse may
discover that his political advancement
Is hampered Dy the wire-puling of

ADVICE TO zm
LOVELORN
BY BEATRICE FAIRFAX.
A Man Who Would a-Wooinu Go.

Dear Miss Fairfax: AS | am young
man holding very good position and
am going with very nice young lady
about my age, would very much like
10 get engaged to her. but when | go
TO see her | can't seem TO think what
to say. When | am out | can always
find enough 10 say to other girls, but
when IL comes to her am lost on the
talking Subject. think this young
lady loves me, for she gives me every
evidence of 1t, and | would like very
much TO get engaged to her So nobody
else will try TO win her love. | want
you to Tell me what 10 say when |
go to see her again, for | have been
going with her long enough now -
win her love. and don't think she will
refuse me II | ever find words to ask
her. am going TO do just as you adj
wise me in the matter.
A READER.
Do you know that you have asked
me a very difficult question? | can adj
wise YOU what to do. but am afraid
cannot tell you what TO say. The
reason you find II hard TO talk to her
is that you care for her so much that
IL makes you self-conscious. Don't be
afraid. Just go ahead and propose to
her. If you can't say II, write IL. Once
the plunge is made you will find things
will go very easily. Don't try to say
too much. Just tell her that you love
her and ask for her love in return.

Nav Not Be Lost.

Dear Miss Fairfax: | am 10 years
old and considered fairly good look
ing. | love a young man 81 years old,
who is commanding fair salary. He
took me to several places OF amuse-
ment. and has always treated me ex-
tremely well. He has been treating
me rather indifferently OF late. He
used TO call me up during business
hours. but for the last five weeks his
calls have ceased How can | regain
his love? ID. p.
You must not jump to the conclu-
sion that his love Is lost. He may
be busy. or possibly offended at some
thing. II his love has changed to In.
difference. | am afraid that there Is
nothing TO be done. as II is almost i'm
possible TO revive a love that has
worn out.

Cheaper Automobiles.

The doom of high automobile prices
has sounded. One can buy better
car today for $500 than he could a
few years ago for $4,000, says the
New York World. 1t is only matter
of time now until any man who can
afford to keep a horse to own an auto
mobile.
Automobile building was more or
less of an experiment up to a short
time ago. But now it is an exact
science. When the modern car is
turned out of the shop the makers
know that it will run, and run well
Close watching of the performances
of the earlier machines has pointed out
the defects of construction. These
have mostly been remedied Shops
are better equipped now Cylinders
crank-shafts, axles, gears and the like
are made in great quantities by spe
cial machinery The cost of labor and
materials has been much reduced by
system, until now it is possible to turn
out a much better machine than for
merly and charge about half the origi
nal price for it. Truly good touring car!
are offered for as little as $1,000. Run
abouts that will give 10 times the ser
vice of any horse and buggy bring
$500
The higher-priced cars give the buy
er a better finish and higher power, bu
the cheaper automobile is very salts
factory car in most cases and has tn,
support of thousands of users in mod
crate circumstances.
And this is only the beginning. T'h'
years will see a yet more pronounced
drop in price, while quality is main
| tanned.

Protection Unjust,

Nearly 60 years ago, in considering
the tariff question, President Frank
lin Pierce made this statement:
Protection is essentially and in
trinsically unjust. At the very
threshold of the discussion of pro-
lection just men should insist that
government has no right through n
statute to enable a few men to in
crease their wealth at the expense of
the whole body of consumers. Right
and justice are opposed to such a
system, ad it is idle for men to at
tempt to reason on the benficient
results Of injustice. Injustice in the
long run always brings evil. and men
may be ever so wise in determining
the good results of an unjust law,
yet they overlook the fact that the
results must, in the very nature of
things, eventually bring destruction. -
