morality and make no protest or give
no warming.
1t should be a spur to his best ma.
ture, to his highest impulse.
Unless a man improves under the
influence OF woman's love there Ia
something wrong with her love or the
man.
Every human being either i'm
proves or degenerates as years pass
by. To the unprecedented eye those
subtle changes are visible year by
year. There Ia no such thing as re-
manning stationary, mentally. moral
ly or physically.
A man may lose fortune and posi-
ton, vet grow into a finer and more
admirable manhood through the ex-
perience. He may gain wealth and at
the same time lose or gain in moral
worth, and these changes should be
first visible to the eyes of the woman
who loves him.
The highest type OF love is not blind.
1t has the good OF it's object too near
its heart to be blind to the changes
which encompass it.
Patient Griselda" was not a noble
type OF loving woman. She encour-
aged the brute and the tyrant in the
man, and allowed him TO lower him
self in the moral scale.
When a man says of woman: mo
matter what I do she will say 1t Ii
all right" be sure that woman is not
giving the highest type or love. What
man ought to be able TO say Is: 'sNo
matter how appearances are against
me, she will believe in nae until | can
explain to her, and II I make a mis-
take she win be the first to encourages
me to begin anew and the quickest
to forgive"
No woman who loves utterly would
think 1t a great sacrifice to give UP
her life for her lover were 1t neces-
sary. Love is immortal and has no
fear OF death.
A perfect love must include spirit
ual sympathy, mental companion
ship, physical responsiveness
Any one Of these elements lacking,
love is crippled.

ideas of love between the sexes

ideas OF love between the sexes
arc hanging with other conditions.
Acc ding to one authority, romantic
love between man and woman first
came into the world with Dante's love
for Beatrice. Before that period gal
lantry had existed; but only the gal
lantry of the male. who tries TO at
tract the female--a purely sex i'm
pulse, devoid of real romance and
high sentiment.
In the middle ages and the days
of the Christian fathers, woman was
considered the author of all evil. She
was even called the door of hell. .
She was told she must 1--we In con-
tinua1 penance on account OF hav-
ing brought sin into the world.
In the sixth century woman was
forbidden to receive the Eucharist In
the naked hand, because of her i'm
purity. +.
No Oriental religion ever reduced
woman to such degradation as did the
fanaticism of these early Christian
fathers
Here are some proverbs about wo-
men which men made popular IN that
era:
women and horses must be beat
en-"
Women and money are the causes
Of all evils"
Trust no woman, even were she
dead"
"If you are too happy. take wife. :"
MontaiEne recommended poetry to
women, because ut 10 q wanted crafty
art, disguised all for pleasure. all for
show. just as they are.
John Stuart Mill once said In refer
enoe to those times:
Some generations axo, when satires
on women were in vogue, we thought
It clever to insult women for being
what men had made them"
The world has grown away from
such ideas Of women; and, with other
changes, It's viewpoint on what con-
stitutes love has changed. When once
woman was supposed to be mans abb
solute cnattet she ts now regarded AZ
his comrade. mate, friend and equal;
and comradeship rather than service
is demanded OF her.
This question is propounded: What
10 the highest form OK womans love
for man?"
The question is at once simple and
complex. Not every woman Is en-
dowed with the qualities which enable
her to be lovcress, Not every wo-
man go endowed meets the one cap
able OF inspiring her.
Not every woman who loves deeply
possesses the spiritual and mental
traits which alone render that love
blessing and a power for good TO the
recipient. There are women whose
love biights and ruins. There are 9TH
ers whom to love or be loved by

Phaedras tells of woman who
loved her husband 80 much that In
comparison father and mother seem
ed like strangers. This wife was Al
cestis the daughter of Pelius. She
cheerfully laid down her life for her
husband. and the gods accorded her
the rare virtue of returning to earth
when she felt like IL.
1t IL quite possible these parents de-
served to seem like strangers to their
daughter. Parental affection Ii not

and one which in no sense includes

the majority OF fathers and mothers
the inner life of their offspring is as
unknown az the Sanscrit language.
A mere tie OF blood cannot force
us to love what is unlovable.
II ,Alcestis passed from the home
where the average domestic conditions
exist into the full effulgence OF real
love life. It is no wonder her parents
seemed strangers to her. But X her
now-found happiness caused her to
ignore feelings, or TO disregard q
properly courteous and thoughtful
code Of conduct toward them, then
1t was not the highest type OF love"

A correspondent whose letter was
published In The Tribune yesterday
calls attention to the fact that Gen
eral Robert e. Lee freed his slaves
, fl Ely the tina when
President Lincoin's emancipation
proclamation became effective, and he
asks the reason. He rightly con-
cludes that it could scarcely have
been in compliance with President
Iincoln's proclamation. and he Won
ders whether it was to set an exam
pie to other Shareholders and con-
ciliate European sentiment or to show
his dissent from the declaration of
Alexander H. Stephens that slavery
was the cornerstone of the Confed-
eracy."
General Lees act of manumission
was not based on either of these rea-
sons. 1t was, in fact not political
at all, or even the result or personal
conviction. 1t was merely the per-
Torrance Of duty imposed on him
by the will OF his fatherin-law,
George washington Parke Gusts. who
had died in 1857, leaving instruction
for the manumission of the slaves on
his Arlington, White House and other
estates some FIVE years later. This
instruction General Lee conscientious
ly carried out. notwithstanding the
disturbances of the war. His son,
Captain Robert e. Lee in his 'Recol-
lections and Letters of General Robert
E. Lee" thus refers to the transac-
ton as taking place at the beginning
of 1863:
.'Mr. Gusts, my grandfather. had
made him executor OF his will, where
in it was directed that all the slaves
belonging to the estate should be set
free after the expiration OF so many
years. The time had now arrived,
and, Notwithstanding the exacting du-
ties of his position he proceeded
