Suppose You accept a verbal one from me. You have done a thing that is con- temptible and dishonorable. You have lowered your womanhood by decelving two men—and you are likely to lower their standard of womanhood when they find you out When you were with either, he became temporarily the one you loved—and so, when you went to the othor, you betrayed the man you had Just thought you loved. The standard of jove for decent folk is to love one only and to cleave to him or her. And since you think you love two men, you love neither—but Instead you have a morbid desire to be made love to! You love yourself, my girl; you love to have your precious self courted and worshipped. And so you have supplied yourself with two admirers and stimu- lated your own fondness of conquest. What would you think of a man who similarly deceived two women? Chival- rous folk would think “cad” too kind a name for him. And even ‘“scoundrel' would seem to gloss over the situation of taking the love and allegiance of two women and of laying up for one (or both) unhappiness when the day of awakening came, The fact that you are a girl makes “mystic chords of memory” will, for all these, have long since Lieen broken, Five “hungry generations” will have trod them down deep into the dust of forgetfulness. A hundred and sixty-five years is the measure of Neptune's orbi- tal period. Yet his pace, slow in an astronomical sense, is seven-fold faster than the swiftest flight of the destroying shell, | As is suitable for his position, a watcher on the outpost, Neptune possesses a range of vision unrivalled by any other mem- ber of the molar system. For him the parallaxes of the stars are thirty times as great as for the earth. This is be- Cause of the glant diameter of his orbit, which is nearly 5,600,000,000 miles, Bven the most distant stars must show some measureable change of place in th: sky when viewed from the opposite ends of a base-line as vast as that. Here on the earth we cannot tell how far away mighty Canopus is. We simply know he is so distant that a base-line 186,000,000 miles long, furnished by the diameter of the earth’s orbit, has no measurcable length viewed from Canopus. The same ie true of all but a very few of the stars. But in the sentry box of Naptune known. The records kept there may show the range for every bright star, and even for every star in the Milky Way, so that it & sidereal world war should break out and the sun should feel compelled to bombard his far off brothers the solar Engaged to Two Men at Once what you have done no whit more decent than would be the conduct of a man who acted with similar shamelessness. In fact it is worse. You have cheapened your own womanliood and all the standards of sweetness and reserve and maidenly modesty that ought to be the lovellest thing in your youth. You ‘are playing fast and loose with the most sacred emotion in life. Ahead of you lie wifehood and motherhood and the sacrodness of home making. Since your promise is divided between two—it is valueless to either. Theoretically you have violated the principles of home and the sanctity of marriage. You think I am taking & girlish prank pretty seriously, don't you? Well, your “girlish prank” ecan't fall to cost one man his happiness and fllusions about the woman he thought of sacredly. And the one man who marries you-—if either is so foolish now--s fairly sure always to remémber that you are capable of de- ceit and duplicity. Make your confession now to each— don't walt to be found out—as discovered you surely will be; but have the one saving grace of decency; acknowledge what you have done. If either man can find it in his heart to forgive you; if you can feel humility enough to desire to spend your life in making up for one oruel duplicity; 1f you feel shame at your ignoble act, then marry. But the safest thing for you to do is to realize that you are not at all in love with either, but just fascinated by love. And then Walt humbly for the miracle of real love' to come into your life. And may all other flighty little girls who play at love and play with love, profit by your siliness. b K In-SEo’ts Push of the hoggish variety does not al- ways promote lasting popularity, ’ It is easy to size up egotism that is not causing our own skulls to buige.
