JUST TALKING, THAT'S ALL

"She said, 'Oh, it's nothing; Doc
and Sam just talking, that's ALL"
Tell Ruth there's no offense, Sam,
as she did not feminine it as gossip.
So long as we talk the truth and make
it impersonal we ought not to hurt
anyone's feelings. When telling the
truth becomes personal and is tinged
with jealousy, that's gossip, from
which the male sex pray to be ac-
quilted"
"Ruth's remark leads me to ask you
a question, Doc, and as I know that
you have had wide experience, pro-
fessionally and otherwise with life
and death and with things seen and
things only seen with the minds eye,
a microscopic or an electroscopic eye,
l shall appreciate your opinion. What
do you consider the noblest, the finest
and most indispensable thing in the
universe?"
'Sam, you amaze me by asking a
question so simple and self-evident.
Why, it's woman, of course, and you
ought to know it"
81 do know it, Doc; but 1 wanted to
find out if you knew it, too"
II don't suppose plain answer is
enough for you, Sam. You will ask
me now how come and why and ex-
pect me to analyze her morally and
mentally and then dissect her."
eyes, Doc; l want to know just
what it is that makes her supreme"
"Kipling says woman is just a
rag, bone and hank of hair He
is an Englishman, Sam, and they
never know how to appreciate woman
or treat her right. They look on her
as essential to the lordly, overbearing
mans health and happiness, but treat
even their wives as interiors much as
they treat their Wallets and buffers.
"Womans the acme of all created
things because God made her to be so.
The early Jews would have US think
that she was an after-thought brought
forth after God had completed Adam
and found that it was necessary to
give man a helper"
"No, Sam; she was never made
from a rib; not created by accident or
made as an appendage for man. She
is the personifcation of life and love,
raised to the ninth power. In the
language of the zoologist, she is SUI
perb, superlative and the most splen-
did specimen of animal life. To the
psychologist she is a radiant soul that
shines by virtue of an innate efful-
gence. To the biologist she represents

life in all it's complexities and contra
dictions-she is the mystery of all
mysteries. To the philosopher, woman
is an unfathomable, unknown guam
tity.
"She doesn't know herself or the
why of her many whims and caprices.
She is never fully known and under
stood by her lover, her husband or her
intimate friends. She forever keeps
one guessing. She is the incarnation
of life that is holy and divine.
physically she is made of finer
clay than man. She is beautiful
thing and joy forever to man. She
was made to love and to be loved; to
adorn and embellish life with her
grace, graciousness and enhancing
charm, and, Sam, she needs no tutor
ing in the use of her varied gifts"
eff all the old bachelors could find
women like the one you have just
printed I believe they would fall over
each other in their haste to get mar
ried, Doc"
"Well, Sam, always like to look on
the bright side of things and if l can
not speak well of everybody, better to
say nothing, Ell?

can make mans life either heaven
