LITTLE PR ROBLEMS OF
LOVE AND MARRIAGE
Do Men Really Understand Women?
BY sarba ra Boyd.

There Is a motheaten fable handed
down tenderly from the past that
woman Is profound mystery and
that there Is no unde standing her.
But woman is no mystery II man
would try to understand her The
trouble is the usual man accepts the
explanation of woman that has been
banded about for ages, and which
does not do justice 10 the present
women II it ever did 10 the past and
does not think for himself on the
subject or If he does. he thinks stl-
pef'ticially. The depth Of a woman's
zeal nature is seldom sounded by him.
For centuries women have been
regarded as playthings, as dolls, as
beings with little reasoning power;
in a word, as children who must be
petted or coerced That they have
tleir own individuality TO be deyel-
cped along individual lines, that they
are as capable OF managing them
selves and their affairs as a man, was
10 the men OF the past at least an
/ lncOncelNdUle tnouSn'.
That idea still holds with the ay-
erage man Of today, for men are very
prone 10 take their opinions on such
matters ready made. Real hard
thinking on unbeaten tracks Is not In
the masculine line unless IT be

Is the present mayor and his sys-
TEN Of city government equal to the
emergencies that now confront us?
Why did he spread his sprinkline
tax all over the city? Why was the
contractor overpaid $4,000 for build

Why have the streets been block
ed from six months TO one year, and
no effort made to keep them open?
Why have property owners been
compelled to pay for raising and
lowering grades Tor sidewalks all
over the city?
Why did Farquharson say he did
not know where he stood on the via

Why should members of his coun'
Gil neglect the city's business and
their own, in order to get out on the
streets and spend their time in try

Philadelphia, Pa, Jan. 10. Here is
a plan that should cause Joy in the
hearts of bashful men who haven't
been able TO muster UP nerve enough
to pop the question to the girl OF
their choice.
Take the girl on an unsuspecting
visit to the laboratory of the psychic
logical clinic Of the university OF
Pennsylvania, which is directed by
DR.. Lightner Wilmer, head OF the
department. of psychology. Then
have her place her hand in machine
which you will notice is labelled a
"phthymograph" or "phyamograph, .
and step into an adjoining room tc
await developments.
\ While her hand rests easily in the
machine. some one whispers In an
audible voice your name, George,
Reginald" or what 1t might be, and
you keep your eye on the indicator
The machine will do the work, and
you can take the word of some of thu
psychologists who have been exper
imenting with il as to the absolute
authenticity of this statement
Registers Girls Emotion.
What the machines do Is to regis
ter on piece Of paper distinct
line, which desiguatcs with precise
correctness the very emotions tht
mention Of your name to the girl has
caused her to experience
If the line sinks despairingly down
ward toward the bottom OF the pa
Pc, take 1t from the proposal ma
chine" that your stock Is rather low
and you had better seize upon con
tidential tip on paper and scontinut
to press your suit a time longer.
II, however, the line fairly leaps
toward the top OF the paper, every
thing is all right and you ought L
rush into the room where the girl Il
seated, d aw her to your breast ant
say: We'll, tell me, why didn't
think Of this long ago.

strange coincidence in the fact that the
