the letters written on my supposed sub
ject. Perhaps 1 did not express myself
clearly. The subject was: Should
Lady that is Educated Marry a Gentle
man that is Less Educated and Wise

Gentleman that is Uneducated." 1
should dispose of that by simply say
ing, no. For instance, if one has a
college education. should they marry
a person with only. common school
education, with a love of good reading
and general information? Should they
marry. a person who can only read,
write and cipher. with but little desire
for reading or information? Consider

termed educated and those who are
not, even if friends. it seems to me
that in so sacred a thing as marriage
persons should be equally mated In
education as in everything else,
lady especially / think if any differ
ence the man should be the better, as
woman is either raised or lowered to
her husbands level. I persume should
a person be large in conjugal love there
will be less danger of unhappineSs or
separation. even IL one is pulled from a
high position to a lower one. Now,

wealthy position to a poor mans wife.

said the educated should marry the I'M
educated for it would be too one sided,
and If both were ignorant their chill
dren would not have the chance, but
suppose they have no children, how
will the educated one pass the time,
or If the other should not think 1t
necessary to educate so much. as is
very often the case, how can they be
one when their notions and pleasures
are so different? AS I proposed this
