IF he refers to the Romeo-Juliet
type of intense, excessive, mad love,
then he, is right That sort of love
causes two hearts to beat as one and
each agrees completely with the other
Each personality envelops the other.
But it seems that the matter of
voting today would be more or less
extrenous. There are many women
in this city. active politically, who
love their husbands, perhaps, and
really do, insofar as we know. They
vote differently, though. Their love
is not that type of the very young
and ardent lovers, who belong COM
p1etely to each other.
Therefore the doctors idea would
not apply here. But in all things we
| find exceptions.
/ DR.. Reede; I understand. says that
| if girl has. an ideal love for her
| father, that is. regards him as her
/ ideal of masculine perfection, or en-
| the other hand has a secret antagon-
! ism for him, either quality is trans
| ferred at her marriage to her hus-
| band, who thereafter is either the OBJ
! ject of her admira ton or antipathy
| just as her father was. In that he is
| right.
81 do not believe, though that the
| matter of wife casting her lot with

Tired Nervous Mothers
Vinol Is What You Need
To Make You Well And Strong

Women in this city who are tagged
out" weak, overworked and nervous
should profit by the experience of
Mrs L. w. George. She says, II was
weak rundown and nervous. with no
ambition to do anything. After every
thing else had failed. Vinol built me
