A Famous Doctor says: "After long experience of Hall's Wine I still continue to prescribe it, and have never failed to obtain benefit in all cases.' Jall's Wine is a scientific preparation the prescription of Member of the Royal College of Surgeons, London, England, and it has been steadily growing in popular favour for over a quarter of a century-the period it has been before the public.

MARRIAGE AND MOOD. MECHESTERTON DRAWS SOME
ANALOGTES.
Writing in the Illustrated London Nees on the divorce problem, Mr. G. K. Chester- ton says:-
"Marriage is an institution like any other, sat up deliberately to have certain farctions and limitations; it is an institu- tion like private property, or conscription. or the legal liberties of the subject. To talk' if it were made or melted with certain changing moods is a mere waste of worda. The object of private pro perty is that as many citizens as pos- sible should hare a certain dignity an pleasure in being masters of material things. But suppose a dog-stealer were to say that as soon us a man was bored with his dog it ceased to be his dog, and he ceased to be responsible for it. Suppose he were to my that by merely coveting the dog, ho could immediately morally possess the dog. The answer would be that the only way to make men responsible for dogs was to make the relation legal one, apart from the likes and dislikes of the môreat. Suppose a burglar were to say, Private property I venerate, private property I revere; bui I am convinced that Mr. Brown does not truly value his silver Apostle spoons as such sacred objects should be ralued: they have therefore ceased to be his property: ih reality they have already become my property, for I appreciate their precious character as nobody else can do!
It is obvious that these philosophers would fail to understand what we mean by a rule, quite apart from the problem of its exceptions. They would fail to grasp what we mean by an institution, whether it be the institution of law, of property, or of marriage."
WOMEN AS "THE KEENEST LOVE CRITICS,
[BY CAROLINE CARR.}
It is interesting to note how many hun dreds of platitudes and half-truths about love have ten coined by men. Woman, to have remaine) by contrast, scens throughout all time curiously silent on the subject that is, by man again! supposed to ba Ber" whole existence."
There is, for instance, that charmingly poetic phrase, "Love is blind." I wonder who first said so? True, it may be that man's love for woman is often myopic, ta Ezt the least of it. But what lore brings to woman aljove all other gifts is a clarity. of vision, an understanding, a eritiail appreciation of life that she can gain by no other cxpérience.
The amazing sympathy women can show to those they love proves how well they understand thein. Little does a man know how every detail of his appearance, man, ners, prejudices, and enthusiasms is re gistered on the raind of the woman who belongs to him; every trait, those that bere, annoy, and infuriate Eer, us clearly and strongly as those she admires and
lores.

Au expression of masculine coining that is always absurd when applied to worden is the word "eynicism." Always a quality in human nature, in mua cynleisu is, as the shell of the lobster, masking a painfully sensitive sentimentality. It wit- Eessing the love scenes in plays, or reading those in novels, a man rerels secretly in the expression of sentimentality that he dare not Limself express, but in his fear of self- revelation he will veil, his true feelings with an expression of so-called cynicism.
A feminine cynic is a, contradiction in terms. A woman has to need to protect" an incate sentimentality with a crust of supposed'dislin. She is made of harder, courser fibre than her mate; for all her love, she does not shrink from seeing truth as it is.
Man in love rhapsodiseq; preman in the
state realiace.
A sense of criticism, is closely allied to, the selective instinct. It is natural, there fore, that woman, as the mother of the race, should, when selecting her mat, view hi instinctively with critical eyes.
A lover in his blindness assumes again aud again that he is giving his loved one nothing but undiluted bliss, whereas, if the truth could be revealed to him he would find, time after time, that he bores" and annoys her to the point of fury. When she can no longer restrain herself, there is a lovers' quarrel, a magnificent relief to her overwrought "nerver, but an appalling strain on his."
Let Lim not, in the joy of reconciliation overlook the fact that woman is supremoly

The causes are many, but it is not always realised how much the various women's movements have had to do with it. I do not condemn theas movements, but I cannot but remark that since the suffrage days, and the subse quent war-time economic independence among women, they have been much more dificult to keep within the fold of the Church. It is no longer true to say that women are easier to reach than men. They have dovelopel a very critical spirit towards, organised religion.
