onstancy is the key-note of a life which speaks eloquently of clean
thoughts and clean hearts.
7. Until men and women recognize that self-control in a man, and modesty in
a woman, will bring a mutual respect that years of wedded life will only
strengthen. Until they recognize that love is the purest and holiest of all
things known to humanity, will marriage continue to bring unhappiness and
discontent, instead of that comfort and restful peace which all loyal souls
have a right to expect and enjoy.
8. Be sensible and marry a sensible, honest and industrious companion, and
happiness through life will be your reward.

What Women Love in Men.
1. Women naturally love courage, force and firmness in men. The ideal man
in a woman's eye must be heroic and brave. Woman naturally despises a
coward, and she has little or no respect for a bashful man.
2. Woman naturally loves her lord and master. Women who desperately object

self-abuse, and if they survive and marry, their children will have small
bones, small frames and sickly constitutions. It is therefore not strange
that instinct should lead women to admire men not touched with these
symptoms of physical debility.
7. GENEROSITY.--Woman generally loves a generous man. Religion absorbs a
great amount of money in temples, churches, ministerial salaries, etc., and
ambition and appetite absorb countless millions, yet woman receives more
gifts from man than all these combined: she {127} loves a gen
