Few Escape Shafts of Small

Affection Has Been Well Described as
Specific Ailment; Also
Form Of Madness.

"Love is like measles" said we'll

must go through It,"
She might with equal truth have
added: And like measles, it is a dis
ease, with its marked and diStin-
guished symptoms with varying peri
DDS of incubation and often with seri-
Gus consequences"
However sentimentalists may scott,
love is beyond doubt a specific dis
ease-''a fever, a ferment in the blood
"a fact which has been recognized by
writer's of all ages, from Terence. who
wrote, "In love, in delirium," to Mrs.
F.. B. Browning. who said, "We catch
love and fevers In the vulgar way"
Its attack is sometimes instanta-
neous, remarks London Tit-Bit writ
er. A truant curl, a sudden glance
from a pair of merry eyes. the pout
of pretty lips, dimple that comes and
goes, the sudden music of voice
and for many man the deed is done.
John Leech Succumbed hopelessly
at the sight of pretty face in Lon

Over most men the disease creepS

recognizable symptomS-"a foolish Sc

They have fits of moodiness and alb
straction and a "brooding, hangdog
look"
They become unsociable and irri-
table-now almost hysterfcal in their
hilarity, now plunged in an abyss Of
gloom. Their appetite fails; they lose
flesh.
In proximity to the loved one they
often act in a manner distressing to
themselves and idictic to others. At q
word they will flame scarlet and utter
incohcrencies or imbeci!ities. They
will sit on their hats or put the sugar
tongs in the milk jug.
Then, when at last the tortures of
incubation are over and the disease
Is in full swing, the whole world is
metamorphosed for them.
This is the stage of deliriuin, in
which they see glorious visions. and
move amcns pilantoms. For3them
there is only one woman in all the
world. Size is a queen. Q =. goddess.
Her faults are virtues, her virtues
divine.
Her voice, though it he raucons as
that of raven, is sweetest music; her
face, her form, are the crown of fe.
male perfection. II they may not live
for her, ali the boon they crave of the
gods is to be ailowed to die for her.
This period of ecstasy may be long
or short. Happy the man who soon
emerscs from it into sanity, for tn"
other way disaster and tragedy lie
1t was in this mood that Hazlitt
glorifed the Kitchen slavey'' into u
divinity and worshipped PROSTATE at
her shrine, and it was in this mood
that hundreds of men have closed
great careers in tragedy. from Mare
