BUT LOVE IS UNSCIENTIFIC AND CVEN IGNORANT. In these young and detached” hearts les the hope of all advocates of ugenic marriage. For, after all, what do a boy and girl in lave care for the guper-race? I am sure they feel very much like the man who said “D—n posterity! What has posterity ever done for vis?"

There really should be three maps or charts, physical, mental and moral.
