l do no, marry for many reasons
One reason is that am of a very al
fec,ionate temperament. l feel qn'ie
sure that it IS better for me to Iove q J
women as / DO now, than 10 have TO
nrofess u love but one womhn-;n!
Wife. Let me tbiuk OF some more re"
sons.
As bachelor 1 get great mauy in.
>.tation cards and pleasant attentions
wherever l go. My married ihenGs
don't have anything ike as much IucS:
and their wives make them angry by
wondering why it is so. II is exceed
i1ply nice when dine out to be paired
off with an unmarried girl. Ny mar
rjed friends look across the table at me
OBVIOUSLY. ANY sort Of married
sfrump"is good enough for them. As
| ain | can do exactly as | like; go 10
bed at nine or three, at my own sweet
VII. and breakfast in bed, or up at any
hour. Most husbands can by no means
do as they please, even IN SO small
mattor as this. They are expected to
be at home by ten or eleven o'clock, or
face cold coffee, cold eggs, cold toeSt
and cold looks next morning.
Every married man marrieS Tor MN
self-for his pleasures aud comfort. Am
] to blame if choose to remain single
for the same purpose? There Is 10
more cant than the talk about 1t berg
a mans duty to the race TO take Wit.
OF course, too. there is the dreadful pcs
sibility of the marriage turning cut
III. 1t is next to impossible for
"a man to say definitely. Il can
b. happy with such Il woman for ny
wife.'i / know sweet young girls who,
five wears rom their wedding day,
were uatidv. coarse, negligent women,
either openly loving their children to
The neglect OF their husbands, or openly
indifferent 10 both husbands and child
zen. This sort of thing is frightlul to
think Of. Married men, in some cases,
seem to yet used 10 it, but it worries
and kills the brighter part Of them.
do not write altogether as novice
i'm matters Of The heart. ! have been IN
love over and over again. Somehow,
though, | have always put off popping
The question until some other fellow
had done it on his own account. Ofall
these girls whom | might have married
only one now, as married woman,
seems to answer the expectations | lad
formed of her. The realization of this
makes me more and more fond of my
bachelor freedom aud irresponslb:!lly.
Besides, have gray hair or two and
my habits are getting fixed. An aston
isbiug number of men like myself re-
main siugle for reasons much like those
| have mentiored Unmarried, we
have one bird in the hand-content-
meut. How can we tell that we may
get hold Of that gay, long-.ailed p1ro-
quet in the bush, married felicity, ii we
suddenly change our state?
There is an ideal woman should
like to marry. Some day may meet
with som zone who is lolerahly like her.
Then, if l am NOT 90 old, | will WOO
her.-CaSSelFS Magazine.
