examination of an equation compound

WOMEN ILLOGICAL?
BY ELMER PHILLIPS.

Doctor SyntaX was not more than
forty though he seemed bowed be-
meath the weight Of his recondite in
vestigations. He was seated at his
library table, looking out across the
quiet village street toward the campus.
Inside the halls of those magnificent
Gothic buildings which he could just
see from his library he had taught for
Is years.
When Aloysius Benton, his friend
and colleague, died, ten years before,
leaving his twelve-year-old daughter
to Doctor Syntax, 1t was the most nat
ural thing in the world that the kindly
old doctor should take the child into
his household After old Janet died,
Milly quite naturally became the doc
tors housekeeper.
And now certain persons had whs-
pered that 1t was not proper for an
unmarried man, even professor to
live alone in the house with the girl
With Milly! Why, she ruled him
with an iron hand, cased in velvet
though 1t was! Did north wind blow,
his peace Of mind was not worth a
moments purchase unless he put on
his comforter to step across the
campus. He was sent to bed even in
the midst of the most abstruse prob
lens, when eleven o'clock arrived, and
he had a lecture on the following day
Nevertheless, life without Milly seemed
an impossible, hopeless thing.
Doctor Syntax had been in love
when he was young man. The OBJ
ject Of his devotion had married an
other; but, though he had long ceased
to think of her. the memory of that
first love had clung around him like a
radiant cloud, softening his spirit and
fitting 1t for high idealism. Sometimes
the thought of M'lly had, of late, unac-
countably revived that memory The
professor did not at first understand
why.
But when the ultimatum went forth
that society considered Milly ought to
be relegated to another sphere, the
professor had a ridiculous dream. 1t
was absurd, to hope that Milly, the
belle of the little town and
he an old fogy of forty! But he con-
tinued to dream it. Even a professor
of mathematics has the right to dream.
At any rate, he must tell Milly. And
he did SO, when he met her in the
