An Intellectual young man ought not to
marry a goose. even If he finds recreation
in her society.
A commonplace a young man ought not
TO marry yeniu,7 even If he IS de lighted
with her accompli shments.
A healthy young man ought not to mar
~ an invalid A delicate young man
ought not to marry female SandoW
But If a vigorous young man can marry
a pure young woman he loves, then it Is

able to maintain her. on the contrary, II
ii is a woman of the r. Eht sort 1t be-
comes an incentive to effort spur 70

plaster and that horrid plaster is stuck
tightly on his back, there to remain I'M
til baby and his mother leave the hos

result might be accomplished by a tiny
silver chain and badge fastened about the
neck, or a pretty ribbon or something
else dainty enough to be appropriate to

this will cure him.

wife begged her not to change the color of
