• ..•„" Beware, ..women, that you do not give yotir>lovo to an artist. He will seize upon your gifts and let your heart grow sod In quarrels he may seem unhappy, bu; he knows thev quicken emotion in nis art.. When cold reality breaks in upon you both, ho will not want " such bitter draughts from fate, lest they blow out ; tho flame of his genius. You may ba charming, you may be beautiful; nis Irve for you will be subsidiary to. his work. He will seek immortality, not, as you will, • in. your children, but in the fine impressions of his brain. Tempt not life on such a hazard, dear women, for the dice are already loaded against you. carriage with a profiteer were better."
