81 can't think; I'm not allowed
to. So please don't expect 1t of
me- My doctors have ordered me
to live the mental life of dairy
maid for six months more; other
wise they say they'll declare for a
padded cell. l have been neur-
asthenic for year now and am
just beginning to regain my
heafeh,g SO you see how rash ii
would be for me to overwork my
brain. l. would not formulate a
single idea for any interviewer In
the world!"
SO spoke Marie Doro, twenty
four-year old star, recently.
If men think they are mentally
superior to women. let them
ponder this for q while. Do you
know that there is free
masonry among all the women in
the world? A code by which we
signal one another as we watch
the 5'antics of our masculine
egotists?
Y
women are wise eHouBn 10 let
the linen think they are wiser.
That, proves how very wise
WOMEN are!
I am quite persuaded that there
is no such thing as REAL love,
the kind the fairy tales--novels--
tell about. Those books all end
where the~first' chapter of life be-
gins. And the reason for the un-
realization of loves lies in the in
escapable fact that man seems
not to be constituted for a sus-
tained affection of the. supreme
strength.
The Tacoma times. [volume] (Tacoma, Wash.) 1903-1949, 1911-12-27

Those who object to divorce are
livery short-sighted thinkers. They
lare not considering even the next
generation. When the persons
of one plane happen to mate with
the persons of another plane, the
lproduct of the marriage must
needs be a hybrid. Hybrids of
the animal world are generally
mongrels.
The great people OF the world
those who live far above the
|many--are what l call 'Hauns.
They are in tune with the vibra-
tions of the Infinite and under
stand all things. They are friends
with flowers and rivers, trees and
mountains, moon and stars, babes
and women, children and old men.
They are pagans who find God
everywhere And they love this
Great Spirit not in a cold, distant,
churchy way, but as part of them
selves, as something that beats
within them.
BY the time Marie Doro had
finished saying these things her
bouillon cup was empty. AS she
rose to- go. to her room for a nap,
the frail little girl whose mind
drives her body on so fast, so
much TOO fast, looked up with
those eyes that just drip gloom
and smiled family.
II am so awfully sorry" she
murmured, that / couldn't give
out a few ideas, but the doctor has
forbidden me to use my mind ex-
cept In connection with my work.
