It was St. Bernard who, in 962 founded a monastery in the Alp: where, to help the monks rescue trav- elers lost in the snowstorms of the mountains, the dog was bred which we know by his name. From its early origin the saying Love me, love my dog” persisted, and we find It current in early Eng- L literature. It is found in the “Widow's Teurs,” published in 1612 by the early English poet Chapman.

Does Absence Make the Heart Grow Fonder? Says “Yes and No.” DorothyDix If a Husband and Wife Could Be Married Four Days a Week Instead of Seven, Divorce Would Perish—Short Partings Keep Love Alive. 'rm«: terrible thing about love is that evervthing you can say about it is true, yet nothing that you say about it is always true. The game of hearts is 4 game of chance, in which no system, no matter how carefully doped out, ever wins two times in succession; where there are a thousand exceptions to every rule, and where the player has no precedent 1o guide him. but must go it alope, and trust to such brains and luck as God has given him. 7 Now take the effect of absence on love, for instance. Does absence make the heart grow fonder, as the poet asserts, or does ahsence kill love? 1Is separation Cupid's dearest ally or hix deadliest foe? No one can say with certainty. Indisputably, the chief trouble with matrimony is horedom and wives grow disillusioned, and get upon each other's nerves hecause they see much of one another. They get fed up on each other's soclety, and nag and fret at each other, hecause they are talked Al have nothing o sy, Hushands Bven the fumily quarrel Is nothing but an unconsclous effort to Inject some pep Into the deadly, dull, domestic day.

And hoth John and Mary respect each other's “K Mi-the-Grass™ ®igns, and observe each other's taboos, and avold the subjects on which they differ, so t they get along harmoniously together Wl of this is changed by matrimony.

When they do talk. it Is more thun likely to cull attention to euch other's shortcomings. For they are no longer diverted by each other’s idiosyncrasies.
