QTTTTnnnTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT she might have avoided the scandal that Dr. Cotton also followed, etc., etc. states that if people were treated for this disease; if these germs were destroyed and marriages made on a scientific basis better results would follow, especially in the matter of children born to married couples. A part of the last assertion is a scientific fact known to humanity for a Fowler advocated the long time. theory of scientific marriage nearly half a century ago. He pointed out that men and women of identical temperament should not wed. That is to say, two people ought not the union of two deep marry. That not as was brunettes productive of good results as the unison of a blonde and a brunette. His theory was that when the extremes of either side met nature in her wisdom compensated herself and that the offspring of the blonde and the brunette wras liable to be better than the offspring of the two brunettes. So that Dr. Cotton is telling us nothing new when he advocates scientific marriage. He might have gone farther and endorsed Fowler where he states that there are some people who ought not to be married at all. 4 J But returning to the disease theory. Is it not barely possible that Dr. Cotton has become mixed, unwittingly, in his terms? Does he not mean to tell us that "lust is a disease instead of We who have arrived at maturity are competent to discuss them among ourselves and we do discuss them. It is not proper to handle them in public prints except in a superficial way. In this case he mentions is it not likely that the woman was not the physical mate of the man and that she abandoned her home and its pleasant surroundings because she sought a compatible male instead of living on with one incompatible? J .4 Love is not a disease. It is a holy feeling born of intelligence that has increased as mankind has grown older and better. In primitive days when men mated with women in much the same manner as the lower orders of animals do, there was an utter absence of love. The union of sexes was prompted by the strong desire implanted in both, that the race might be continued and was a part of the Divine plan of creation and perpetuity. As age followed age the greater minds of both sexes saw that in continued cohabitation lay greater happiness. Continual association one with another impregnated the mind of both man and woman with fondness, the beginning of love. By the ties of mind not animal passion men and women were drawn closer together and united their fortunes. As these unions progressed the children born of them had implanted in their mental organizations the sparks which, continued from generation through generation, finally blazed forth into a holy fire. Civilized men then married for love instead of for physical gratification. With the birth of love came Before the sexes higher wisdom. united as a result of the divine passion men were beasts. With the unions prompted by mental feeling, instead of animal, they have improved. Prior to the union of minds, men fought and killed each other for the simple pleasure derived in killing. No one was spared. The old and decrepit, the weak and helpless child were slain alike. No mercy was shown the wrounded. Only such women as whose physical condition appealed to the victors were spared. Since men have married for love the warrior considers it dishonor to strike a fallen foe; considers it murder to strike the old and helpless or the weak infant; and would be put to death by his comrades were he to offer an indignity to a female captive. Jt Ji There is no disease about it Love it a natural condition of mind brought about by the process of evolution, which has raised man from the degraded level of the brute to the being who claims to have a soul. The man who asserts that love is a disease is nothing more nor less than an ass. It is lamentably true that plenty of people wed without love and on the same principle which incited the primitive being called man to seek a mate. Those are the pairs which make the practice of the divorce lawyer a busy one. When love exists between man and woman they never separate. It is also true that many marry who are physically unfitted for each other. In those instances love soon dies out. If then love is a disease as this fellow says why not kill it by mismating pairs instead of mating them correctly? But where the couple are correctly adapted and love is king, not all the germs, microbes and bacilli ever discovered can divide the pair. The instances he cites have been repeated a billion times in the world's history. Wives are constantly going astray and so are husbands. The divorce mills grind out grass widows and widowers every day because of infidelity. Then, too, how does he know the couple were hapLove a disease! Bah!

Is the condition of mind that prompts a man or a woman to walk with a companion down to the edge of the dark river and for years afterward sit beside its rolling raters awaiting the summons to rejoin beyond the shadows, a physical derangement? home-comin- g -- Not so. (Since writing the above a communication from a well known attorney of Ogden has been received and will be put in type. He treats the matter so differently that no one can accuse us of collusion. Some of Mr. Farrs deductions have reason in them; others have well, whats the use of controverting everyone. Read his opening paragraph wherein he pleads lack of experience, and judge for yourselves who is best fitted to discuss it; the man who has loved and is glad of it because he is all the better for it; the man who loves still and will continue to love so long as life lasts, or the chap who doesnt and admits it.) - o FUNERAL DIRECTOR.
