The name of this law of nature

DOCTOR-When the marriage

gated his securities; you salts

You only omitted one point, but
it was the most important Of all;
you made no inquiries concerning

said: This is a very serious mat

It is significant of the day we
live IN that tens OF thousands Of
young people should see this play
should see 1t together, and should
see It without any feeling Of
wrongdoing. Times have changed;
it is preposterous to blind our
ewes to this fact. It is useless to
burn Brieux-for Brieux is burn
ing himself, his convictions, his
living gospel into the mind and
conscience Of our generation.
And. with great respect to the
ladies who have books to burn
this is for the blessing of the
world.
