Jealousy Is a form OF insanity that Is

Therefore, there 10 no hope Of curing
jealousy, because no Jealous man or
woman ever admits that he or she Is
Jealous. The green-eyed man sees his
wife looking cheerful ana pleased a. she

Nor does the Jealous woman ever think

The most curious thing about Jealousy
Is the strange humility and self-depreea-
tlon II shows. The man who is Jealous

those other men are his superiors in
every way. The woman who is jealous OF
