_"] your husband will meet will only be showing their most agreeable sides to him without the handicap of daily intercourse. Remember, also, that, though he may have the most honorable desire to be faithful to you in the letter and the spirit, he cannot by his own will suppress or increase his actual emotion toward you, and if you destroy his ideal of you it cannot be his fault if his ardor cools.

f the realities are far below the mark of his or her imaginary conception of them, so much the more careful should each one be to keep up the illusions. Very deep affection can remain when all sense of “being in love” is over, but it has lost its exquisite aroma of sweetness. A man will go on being in love with even a stupid woman who never fails to please his eye and his ear--whereas he will lose all emotion for the cleverest who revolts either. Grasp this truth, that the personal attraction in a connection like marriage is of colossal importance, for the moment that is over the affair will subside into a duty, a calm friendship, or an armed neutrality. It can no longer be a divine happiness. So if you can keep this great joy by using a little intelligence and forethought, how much better to do so! I hope you agree with me, Caroline? Remember, all the other women [Illustration: “_If you want to keep him in the blissful state, attend to pleasing his eye and his ear when alone with him.  IN LOVE IS CAUSED BY THE SENSES OF BOTH PARTICIPANTS BEING EXALTED HE IS MOVED BY WHAT HE THINKS HE SEES IN HIS BELOVED AND SHE LIKEWISE AND IF THE REALITIES ARE FAR BELOW THE MARK OF HIS OR HER IMAGINARY CONCEPTION OF THEM SO MUCH THE MORE CAREFUL SHOULD EACH ONE BE TO KEEP UP THE ILLUSIONS VERY DEEP AFFECTION CAN REMAIN WHEN ALL SENSE OF BEING IN LOVE IS OVER BUT IT HAS LOST ITS EXQUISITE AROMA OF SWEETNESS A MAN WILL GO ON BEING IN LOVE WITH EVEN A STUPID WOMAN WHO NEVER FAILS TO PLEASE HIS EYE AND HIS EAR WHEREAS HE WILL LOSE ALL EMOTION FOR THE CLEVEREST WHO REVOLTS EITHER GRASP THIS TRUTH THAT THE PERSONAL ATTRACTION IN A CONNECTION LIKE MARRIAGE IS OF COLOSSAL IMPORTANCE FOR THE MOMENT THAT IS OVER THE AFFAIR WILL SUBSIDE INTO A DUTY A CALM FRIENDSHIP OR AN ARMED NEUTRALITY IT CAN NO LONGER BE A DIVINE HAPPINESS SO IF YOU CAN KEEP THIS GREAT JOY BY USING A LITTLE INTELLIGENCE AND FORETHOUGHT HOW MUCH BETTER TO DO SO I HOPE YOU AGREE WITH ME CAROLINE REMEMBER ALL THE OTHER WOMEN
