= HAVE a letter from a silly girl who
writes:
L am very much in love with a
married man, who takes me out two or
three times a week to dinners and the
theater- This man sWears that he Wor-
ships me but he says that he dOesn {
intend TO get a divorce from his wife
because it would injUre his business
he is a dOctOr-and that he dOesn {
want to give up his children. But he
saws he loves me better than anything
on earth. Do you think he loves me
when he frankly tells me that there Is
no chance of my ever becoming his
wife,"
Does a man love a girl when he is
deliberately running her good name for
his own selfish pleasure
Does a man love a girl when he
places her in a position that he would
shoot any other man down like q dog
II he placed his own daughter or sister
in?
Does a man love a girl when he
takes the best years Of her life and
gives her nothing for them but shame
and regret2
Does Man Who Can't Marry a Girl
Really Love the Girl:
Does man love a girl when he
wins her love, knowing that ne can
not marry her. and that he IS keeping
her from loving some other man VINO
could marry her, and who would give
her a home and the natural JOY OF
woman, wifehoOd and motherhood
Any girl who asks il married
man, who ruthlessly offers her up as
a sacrifice TO his passion, loves her IS
a fit inmate for an asylum for the
feeble minded. She hasn't intelligence
enough TO be allowed out in public.
She needs a guardian or to be locked
up somewhere in a padded cell until
she can take a good long think, and es-
Inmates just what such a love is worth
the love that brings her degradation
instead OF honor.
Over and above the follyfand sin
girl commits in permitting herself to
fall in love with . married man anu

cards are all stacked against yOu, ana
I'm which YOU are bound to lose out In
the end. It brands one as such an
easy mark to be lured into game
where ones opponent takes none OF
the risks.
For when married man inveigles a
girl into a love eScapade he isn't even
a square sport She takes all the
chances. he none. She gets all the
blame. all the criticism. she loses rep
utation and character, and people looh
at her askance. They jolly him ABOUT
his new conquest and about being

peaks. lies the farm Sklet. surrounded
by green pastures, but isolated from
the rest OF the world. One day many
years ago a young married couple
came TO make their home there Inc

The couple had only one child. boy,
whom they called Jon As the years
passed he grew up into d strong ana

melancholy expression in his face and
an evil scOWl in mis- eyes, lurking un-
der his broad forehead
He began to hang around and watch
the casual tourists and visitors wnc
came to and stopped at the farm on
their way from one valley TO the other.
Salbjorg often heard complaints Of ar
ticles that they had lost and sometimes
she found them in the boys possession
and this led to many quarrels ana
stormy scenes. The father, too pun
iShed the boy, but when Jon told now
he had cheated a visitor out of some
thing or made a good bargain without
actually rObbing he merely smiled
Months passed and one day in spring
an old horse dealer came TO stop On
the farm. He had travelled from fair

like most people Of that trade he was

and son sat up haIf of the night cnat-

He was more than satisfied with the
results Of his trip and proudly showed
q purse heavy with silver.

Jon came back very late. He was

any longer.

but no trace Of the missing horse deal
or was found. and il was thought he
must have fallen into a chasm of the
glacier. It was not the first time such
thing had happened But SalbjOrg
began TO dread something worse
One day, during the fall. she was
