on why so many Of them put OF
marriage year after year. and finally

to be thus cared for after marriage.
The annual cost OF such n giris
maintenance is more than the In

exceptionally fortunate. The fault
lies with parents. Unless they are
prepared TO give a fortune with a

How N. lola Passes the Time

A representative Of la Liberte has
paid a visit TO NJ. Zola In his exile
home In England. and. although the
novelist did not talk for publication.
on the promise that his abode should
not be revealed. the writer was en-
abied 10 give some interesting de-
tails as to the manner In which tho
defender OF Dreyfus passes his time.
The morning is spent at work: tho
afternoon Is passed in walking or in
bicycling. while In the evening the
novelist translates with the aid OF a
dictionary the English newspapers
and reads those he receives from
France. He particularly wishes to
keep his whereabouts secret. as his
recent brief visit 20 London shows
that he would be ovcrrun with inter-
viewers and curious people. lie has
but few opportunities for speaking.
as his servants are all English. and
OF that language the author OF
Mana" can hardly articulate a
word. lie moreover considers HIM
self much more a prisoner in the
present circumstances than he would
were he ut the prison OF ste. Pelagie.
for. although personal friends cali on
him. he passes most Of his time alone.
His health Is excellent, NJ. lola
Is still decided not to go back To
France untll the "anaire" has been
ended, for he Is OF the opinion his
presence would be useless to tho
cause which he defends. and could
only be made pretext for new
troubles. 1T Is quite natural" the
writer says. that with his eombative
temperament he feels greatly his
forced inaetion. But he forces HIM
self to be patient. and Is prepared
TO undergo his year OF exile, for he
thinks that the end OF June will Wit
ness the definite end OF the 'affalre.' "
