THE Confessions" are the married.
life story OF "Margie' Naverly, who
married Richard Wayeriyl- Editors
note.
LOVE AND THE MODERN WOMAN.
u have just read over what have
written to you, my dear, and am
afraid that TO some one who did not
know me, II would seem like the con-
fession Of a very bold, bad man.
when ] said that ] had no thought
OF marriage, Margie, that night when
told you that ] loved you ] meant only
that my brain did not act that far. It
is very probable that II you had not
been so sweet, dear, and accepted me
before / asked, would later have
formed the thought and revealed IT,.
ITO a man love means always one
/ thing--possession. A man may have a
vagrant wish to possess without loving
but he can't love without wanting TO
possess. This idea Of platonic love be-
| tween the sexes is all rot.
81 love you is the cry Of all men as
they open wide their aims and when
a woman truly answers I love you,
/ II is her desire 10 creep within
81 remember your saying TO me the
night before our marriage' After to-
night, dear, ! shall belong to you, and
| gloried in that surrender, but both
you aud l found out that today a
woman does not really want to be-
long.
THAT Is the tragedy Of the modern
marriage, Margie-a man still has the
ancient desire TO possess and in her
first, wonderful, overwhelming pas
sion OF love the woman wants TO be-
long The man, my dear, never loses
his idea that the woman he loves mus
] belong to him body and soul, but The
modern woman soon finds that TO give
her soul into the keeping Of anyone i:
lrksome. And then comes the clash ol
wills.
"You women OF today win not li'
even 10 yourselves as did your moth.
ers, who, outwardly at least, allowed

the men they married TO think that
they nodded their thoughts and d.
rected their wills.
"You proudly say we viii not stoop
TO Delilah tactics 10 get our own way
We, too are human beings, and as such
we must be captains OF our own souls
These are strange words, are they
not, Margle, to come from your hus-
bands mind, but you can see how you
have changed me In the 10 years you
have lived with me.
Then I prided myself upon my chiv-
airy, which know now is but the ex-
ploitation of the sex instinct, and now
I hope ! am big enough to be as toler-
ant OF the individuality Of a woman
as that Of q man
No wonder, little book, that ! was
very happy during the last years OF
Dicks life ! wish. ah, how ] wish
that he had told this TO me instead OF
writing 10 for me 10 read after he was
gone I almost begin TO think that life
Is not the great friend have always
thought II.
Life takes MS and cuffs us and tor
lures us with body blows and then,
when we have just become shaped so
that We nt in the pattern thar it has
meant for us. it seems to take delight
in smashing that pattern and in begin
ming over again to 1T us into o new
o mud.
Here were Dick and L We had just
grown TO ne and'the mold was broken
and he was taken from it forever while
] am being pressed into a new mold
which this time viii contain myself
and my darling baby.
What a wonderful father Dick would
bave made. lie would have had the
tolerance and pity that a man VINO has
been through n all would have for one
who might yield to youthful tempta-
ti0n, and he would have been big and
splendid enough TO point the way 10
something better.
Oh, little book, little BOOK, am so
glad that Dick has written all this to
me II brings back my faith In human
nature. see that the things thought
I l fell In love with were not the fig
ments Of my own Imagination, but real
essentials OF my husbands character.
But in finding this out too late am
doubly bereft and doubly widowed.

WHY g
Amputations After Battle
Are Fewer

Urder improved conditions OF the
treatment Of wounds of the extremities
and the minimizing of infections. am.
putations are comparatively rare now.
adayS. II Is q comforting fact that
hand in hand with the dIminulion in
the number Of amputatlons. the quail.
ity aud usefulness OF artificial limbs
: have greatly increased.
think it is fair to say that In Amer
lea we manufacture the best types OF
artificial limbs, Maj. c. l.. Gibson, NJ.
X. g., writes in Scribner's. They are
In great demand in Europe. We make
n wonderful artificial arm, which has
been revelation to European sur
geons. Unfortunately, il is quite ex.
penslve, but doubtless American gen
crosby will see that no soldier who can
use one to advantage fails to obtain
one.
AS result of grouping together a
large number of cases of amputations,
as in the Maison Blanche. just outside
of Paris, opportunities have been given
10 study the conditions which give use
TO unsatisfactory stumps. From this
experience lin civil practice the OPP
portunties for study of this subject
are very few better and surer meth.
DDS of performing operations with a
view TO future usefulness have been
devised. A great improvement also Is
the recognition that a stump, like any
other muscle, is the better for exercise,
and IL is essential for n patient to be-
sin wearing temporary leg at the
earliest possible moment. just so soon
as the wound is healed. The patients
morale is also greatly aided by this pro-
cedure.
Professor Depage has devised very
clever and cheap leg which he makes
his patients wear and entirely forbids
the use Of crutches. the patient being
made TO walk very much as one learns
to swim, by being pushed or the dock.
