The fe serish influences of our uncer-

Limited Incomes Destroy Happiness.
To N, Editor
Because this step would involve the
happiness or misery OF at least two lives.
and the question u%rises, What will be
necessary to the happiness of the woman
whom l may marry ?" "
NV conclusions are that nowadays girls
marry with the idea of becoming cont
panions rather than helpmntes. Evidently
thew IRE not expected to assist in the
practical duties of life. rs no preparation
is made for this. They are gradually
yielding 10 fashion and society the Mt
tention that should be given TO the home,
while there is n corresponding increase In
the expense Of maintaining this mode OF
life.

happiness, or even co~utentment, TO prac-
tise economy and self.denial, and 20 make
continual sacrifices which she might I've

Young men being fully aware Of the

domesticity are the traits sought for in n

perfectly and happily mated, they can
