the United States Theoretically. there
are the same checks and balances
against one-man power in Mexico that
exist in the United States. and yet in
practice Diaz has overridden every one
of them. The president and the vice
president are elected for a term of six
years, and the duties of the vice presi-
dent are exactly like those of the vice
president Of the United States, except
that he may be member of the cabi-

The Mexican Congress-
The legislative body is composed Of
a chamber of deputies and senate
Their members are elected in the same
way, there being two senators from
each state and deputies in proportion
to the population. Half the senate goes
out each two years. When the con-
gress meets. its proceedings are carried
on in much the same fashion as those
Of the American congress. 1t meets
twice a year, in the spring and in the
fail, the 4ong term coming in the fail.
When final adjournment is taken,
about the last act is to choose a per-
manenti committee Of % members Is
deputies and Il senators. Tt is the
duty of this permanent committee to
act in all important matters which
would be acted on by the congress If
it were in session. This permanent
I committee acts in conjunction with the
president when congress is away from
the national capital.
The judiciary or Mexico also is moo
eled after that of the United States.
! Its system of Jurisprudence adheres
more or less closely to American and
! English practice, though it is influ-
eneed somewhat by Spanish legal meth

judges are elected rather than appoint

amounts to practically the same thing.
Secret Ballots Only.
Most of the important elections In
Mexico are by what is known as the
indirect ballot of the first degree. and

ballot that the president and vice

TO what extent universal suffrage is

every single man of q, who possesses
an honest means Of livelihood, shall
have the privilege of voting in the

N REGARD to the discussion of
+ What Is True Love?" started by
Mr. Howe, of Chicago, a woman
subscriber, Miss E. B., writes:
I would like to ask one question:
How can a woman know when a man
tells her he loves her whether he is
speaking the truth or not, and whether
1t is real love or merely affection ?
How can she believe him? aust she
trust him simply on his word?"
On the answer to this question has
hung the happiness of millions of wo-
men in the past, and depends the well
being of untold unborn generations of
women in the future; and yet it is a
riddle as unanswerable as that of the
Sphynx
Nobody can give a woman any rule
for measuring the length and breadth
of mans affection. or any plummet
to sound its depth. Nor is there. even,
any test that she can apply to his
words to know if they are genuine or
false
For woman 10 take mans word
that he loves her is just as risky as
to take his own statement in a horse
trade; yet what is a poor girl to do?
Affection is intangible. She can't look
it over as she would a house and lot
or even a horse, to see that it is all
there and that it comes up to repre-
sensations.
she, Must Take RomeO's Word
In the end she is bound to take
ROmeo's assurances that the state of
his heart is as he describes it to be.
and yet it is notorious that the most
passionate and convincing lovemakers
in the world are those Lotharios who
never mean a word of what they say.
and who find a cheap, amusement in
playing with woWen's affections.
Still another difficulty that a girl
experiences when she tries to assay a
mans love for her is that woman's
Judgment is so biased by her own
feelings that she never can tell what
a mans are If she is in love with
him herself she looks at him through
rose colored glasses. and IL is the
pounding of her own heart that she
hears when she tries to put her finger
upon the pulse of his affection-not
his.
No one can give woman any re-
liable recipe to tell whether a man is
in love with her for keeps or merely
for pastime, or whether his love is of
the double and twisted, dyed-in-the
warp variety. that will stand the wear
and tear of matrimony, or whether it

propinquity. that will fragile out under
the bills and ills of married life But
there are few sign posts along the
way that are we'll worth needing
In the first place, sister, observe
carefully the manner of a man when
he makes love to you If he does it
in a glib and workmanlike manner; if
he can remember to quote poetry, and
take your hand at the psychological
moment that he tells you that he has
spent his entire life searching for his
ideal, but that he never found her I'M
til he met you, beware Of him.
He has had too much experience. and
he is not deeply in earnest; for when
a man is asking for the thing he
wants most, he forgets the poets. and
doesn't indulge in mixed metaphors.
