I emphatically deny love to be mere

present heights were this the case?
Do you think a home could be made
a real home with foundation so tot
terfng, SO weak? Not To what
depths think you would humanity
fall? Oh, love wears the robe Of pur-
ity; love has innocence stamped on
It's brow, and marches on hand in hama
with eternity.
Can one pass Judgment on the goods
a vender sells before he has tasted
1T? Love Is a sentiment of the heart
which one cannot withdraw or with
hold at his bidding. Though 1t may
seem to flicker and die, stir the ashes
and the flame will leap forth with
renewed vigor. Love is a pure, strong,
never dying affection, and those whose
sentiments do not concur with these
have never known love
AS for mother love, no woman who
has ever been called by that blessed
name. Mother" would look upon an
