'"''''-' '''A'7A the poets and
novelists have set an almost impos-
sible idealistic and romantic stand
ard for gauging love. According to
them, a lover must be afflicted with
chills and thrills, and hectic fevers
He or she must tremblc at the sound
of an approaching footstep, and be
ready to commit suicide at the mere
thought of being parted from the
beloved one Now, no really mental
ly balanced person ever experiences
all Of these symptoms.
He or she finds placid peace and
happiness in another's presence;
finds congeniality in another's So
ciety, but there is no wild rapture
no especial THRILLS, and so he and she
doubt that it is love that he or she
feels, whereas it is in reality the
quiet, steadfast love that outlasts
hundred tempests of passion.
There are many ways in which a
woman can test her feelings toward
a man. One is to determine whether
she likes him better present or alb
sent. If she thinks of him more ten
derby when he is away than when he
is with her, it shows that he is not
really sympathetic and congenial,
and she likes him more than she
loves him. If, on the other hand,
she believes herself in love with him
when he is with her, and doubts her
love when he is away, it indicates
that he has physical fascination
for her only. She does not love him
with a love that lasts.
Another way a girl can test her
love is by trying to determine her
own reactions to a mans cOnVersa-
ton. Any woman can listen on for
ever while a man tells her how much
he loves her and how wonderful she
is, but if she begins to be bored when
he switches the conversation to him
self and commences to monologue
about his own interests, then she
merely likes him. 1t takes love to
make a woman want to hear every
thing man thinks about himself.
Still another test of love is when
a girl begins to feel motherly to-
ward a man, and worried about
whether he gets the proper food, and
puts on dry shoes when he gets his
feet wet. That shows that in her
heart she regards him as her prop
erty
But the acid test of love is when a
girl prefers spending an evening at
nome with man to having him
! take her out somewhere. That is
indisputable evidence that she has
