Left an orphan when I was a very
little girl. 1 was brought up by a
maiden aunt, a woman of considerable
brain and will power. I had hardly
Veen settled In ber bou$e before she
(aid out a course for me to pursue.
"1 sball give you n good education."
she said, "and an education is a foun
dation on which a woman may build a
career as well as a man. I'm not going
to educate yon that you may occupy a
subordinate position in some man's of
fice; not going to make a stenographer
of you to take down some man's dicta
tionno man ever dictated to me. I
shall give you u profession. But when
you have been graduated I Bhall expect
you to practice. It is not my intention
to spend money on you to be thrown
away... y don't propose, that after giv
ing you n proiessiou eotue uwu unit
come along, talk a lot of nonsense to
you and render all I hare spent on you
abortive. If a woman Is going to be a
lawyer or a doctor she must begin by
putting all notion of love and mar
riage out of her bead."
Considering that my annt made this
announcement to me when I was but
twelve years old.' It is not to be ex
pected that it made any other Impres
sion on me than that I was to follow
the path she laid down for me. It evi
dently did not occur to her that I was
rather younjr to agree when grown to
place myself In' opposition to nature's
laws. Nevertheless. , she accepted my
promise that 1 would repay her kind
ness in educating me by making my
self the old maid she was herself and
spend my life listening to people tell,
j about their aches and jialun instead
ofenrlng the prattle of my own cbll-
Nevertheless, my aunt was a good
woman despite her crankiness. She
took admirable care of me. and when
I became old enough to choose a pro
fession I selected medicine. My aunt
filed shortly nfter I bad received my
diploma and left me a legacy sufficient
to give me a start ln my profession
The last thing she said to me was;
"Remember your promise. Tod will be
sorely tempted because you are very
good looking. Men will try to draw you
away from the path of duty, but yon
must not listen to them. What they
will 'want of you Is to make . you a
slave. Be constantly on your guard."
As to the temptation, my aunt was
right ' ;
My beinji .thrown, into n, flld of la
bor, where I reef mnnv men. Home of
whom were iiiteillgeut and attractive,
wax probably the ratine of my rc-celv
ins n nmVr of prop"!!'!. ,; rV.:t 1 ::et
mvseif i resolutely to carry out my
aunt' Intentions, repitding me.' feel
ing bound, in honor to do so. ' . I re
fused nil my, suitor, dovotiug myself
exclusively to my priii th e. I fonud
It Impossible to keet the fact that I
wns pledged to celiliu-y from tieln
known, ani I believe that for tuts
recoil f v.'ns 'especially sought In mar
riage. Nothing is ho desirable as that
whl"h is lnipoxKilile to oitin. i .
I practiced two years and resisted nil
temptations to marry. ..One day an
old lady c.nme to see tne and begged
that I. would make n diagnosis of h
trouble tlfiit was alHlctlns ber son.
She said nln. believed there was some
thing ou her sou's mind that be would
not confide . to his medical attendant.
A man. she saM. would le mure likely
to give hi confidence in certain mat
ters to n woman than one of his own
sei. The invalid had been a trifler
ln love affairs, and she was not sure
but that he bad been caught In his
own trap. If she could be sure of this
he might possibly find a remedy,
1 There was something winning In the
old lady's solicitude lest ber boy tnlgbt
he sreUins his lust deserts. I was
amused ' at the absurdity of a man
having to call in a woman physician
to cure him of a possible love malady
I did not attend men patients as a
rule, partly 'because 1 bad cured one
man and ha had given me bis heart It
addition to my ' fee. But since this
dear old lady's invalid son was sub
pected to be already In love, even to
the breaking down of Ms neaitn, i
saw no reason why I should not oblige
her.' So 1 promised to at least make
one visit.
1 found n fine looking young fellow
some twenty-eight . years old. six feet
high and muscular. .. As I entered the
room where he was lounging bo looked
np at me with a captivating smile that
be had evidently Inherited from,. his
mother.: There was an unconscious
strength about him .that ln a man is
especially attractive to a woman. 1
did not wonder that he had fallen Into
eailantrv and could not but have some
sympathy for him that he was stiffer
j ling the penalty. ' His mother with-
drew and I began to question him pro-
1 am only too glad to make a con
fidant of you. doctor. 1 am ln love."
"In that case you must be your own
physician. 1 can do nothing for you."
"But suppose this love U breatlug
me down." . , ,
. "Nonsense."
"I told my mother that yon would
take that view of the i-axe. My ate
la worth uotulng to ine or any oue
else except my mother. I implore you
to try to do something for iue tor ber
sake." ; "-
"1 will. My prescription is plenty ot
outdoor exercise and mental occupa
tion. Whenever tbe image of this tin
attainable girl comes up before you
drive It out,"
"1 cun't"
"There is no eucb word as can't"
I arose to go.
"Will you come ago In?' he asked rue
fully.
There was something both amusing
a man clinging to me to save him from
himself. Nevertheless, I knew of uo
antedote for love and bud uo mind to
waste my time danclug attendance on
a man whose only atlmeut was hi
devotion to some girl who dldu't hap
pen to fancy him. But 1 was obliged
to confess to myself that there was
something us attractive as ludicrous
In it The fond mother, who bad
probably been listening, at this point
came In and said: , ,.,. ...
"Of course the ' doctor will come
again. She will not leave you to suffer"-
: -:; ; .' ;;
"Not If I can be of service." -
As I went out the patient followed
me with. his handsome, meiaocnoiy
eyes, fill I of a longing thai I could nave
understood ' had . I been tne girl who
was torturing him. But uuder the
cln-uuistani ei it was very puzzling
Before . Heaving i questioned Ins
mother, with a view of' determlrriti
if there was any hereditary caue tuut
would account for bis condition, but
she said all ber ancestors on both sides
bad been healthy in mind and body.
I was at tbe time much Interested lu
mental effects upon the body. '- i was
sure that this young man's unrequited
love had brought tilm into one ot those
conditions , thui are so puzzling to
physicians. 1 told his mother this and'
advised ber to attempt 0 reuiofal ot
the'' fundamental cuuse. When she
asked me bow to do this I suggested
throwing her son and some fascinat
ing woman, other than tbe pne lie
loved, together. II e would likely trans
fer his love and this would effect a
cure. She promised to think about it,
but seemed to consider it rather an
impracticable expedient "
A week later she called at my office,
evidently very , much troubled. She
said her son was no better; Indeed.
which I had enred my own.
Nevertheless I determined not to
yield. 1 would not find a substitute, as
I bad recommended to him, but I
would cease to see hlra. But be would
not cense to see me. ,De followed nie
relentlessly. I fought him for ten
months, then surrendered.
On the day my husband and I re
turned from our wedding trip he gave
me evidence ot the value of my aunt's
warning.
Sweetheart," he said, "do you know
that the Illness which brought us to
gether was all a put np 1ob on yon?"
"What do yon meanT" I exclaimed
opening my eyes.
"One day I heard some sawbones
talking about you and your pledge to
ievote yourself to your profession and
not to marry."'
"WeUr ,
' "You know the rest"
As soon as I could get my breath I
hissed, lt waa a mean, contemptible"-
.
A kiss stopped the rest
