seen many such women. who developedse
into sour. disgruHtied old maids I hayieT
seen many other such women who mar
ried, and who were weary. bofed. joyIessae
wives. who gave hard, cola duty ,ao
their husbands in return for the loyssssz
that good men lavished upon thenh.
These women have broken their slabas.s.
ter box at the feet OF false gods, and they
had nothing to offer UP to the. true giod;rss-
Of love
do net deny. that there are resrsst
tragedies in which married man. ie,lss-.ss
TO a wife who is unworthy or uncouxG
genial. and for whom he has no partisEes..:
of affection. does sometimes meet a eirlH
who is his real soul mate. and for vhosiss.ssss2
he has an overwhelming love. But su9sset.
q man, inspired by a real and housskoej'
love, would die before he would furt ma
girl. or compromise her If his love c.sss,.
bring her nothing but sorrow,I he zoe ES-.s.
away and leaves her. ..s.,-l ~
The acid test, Of mans love for -.
woman is whsther it scherishesi and pro1ssc
teets her, or hurts her. Try that giYlislsssfrsss
when married man makes love to ,yo.,.ssss5s
and you'r send him back to the hon,sp
