= Marriage--Before
"a And After
" BY Dorothy Dix X

who marries a saint gets a scold in
stead. The trimmest and daintiest and
heateSt dressed maiden in the COM
munity may need only the liberty OF
her own fireside TO degenerate into a
slovenly creature in dowdy wrappers
ana curl papers. and no man living
may prophesy when a fairy-like little
tnlng VIII turn into a feminine heavy
weight, with three Chins and a figure
like a feather bed.
1t is a woman's business to please
men, and before marriage she is apt
to be mirror in which he sees moth
ing but the reflection Of his own ideals
II he is literary. she affects to be book
ish- If he is sporty. She enthuses over
racing and baseball. If he has fads
she is sweetly sympathetic.
These are merely campaign promises
After marriage she relapses into her
own ways. She has a husband and
there's no use in trying to please him
She doesn't dress up for him. and un-
less she really cares for the things
herself. which she seldom does. she
calls time on his sporting proclivitfes
sits down on his fads. and hustles his
collections to the garrett
There's only one woman i'm a thous-
and who pursues the same tactics to
keep husband she did to catch one.
Before she was married she listened 20
his stories with absorbed attention. she
her out was all animation and interest
After marriage she reminds him that
she read his pet witticism in the comic
papers. she interrupts his best story to
say that the neighbours cat is lost, and
at the theatre she doesn't even uy to
make conversation between the acts.
/ 1t doesn't take any Sherlock Holmes
TO tell when a man is enjoying the
melancholy pleasure of taking his wife
/ out.
/ 1t is this air OF compliance that un-
married women have that has deluded
/ so many men into thinking they could
| mould their wives character to suit
! themselves. They marry what they
/ think is dough, and they find shat they
/ have gotten flint, and that IL any
| moulding is 20 be done in that family
/ they are TO furnish the material. and
not be the operator. 1t is observa bic
/ that only unmarried men who tall
loudly about what they would anC
/ wouldn't let their wives do. The mar.
ried men are silent.
Z Unfortunately there seems no way in
which the before and after marriag,
attitude of both men and women car
be adjusted, but perhaps it is this yer,
element of uncertainty about what on
is getting that adds its final charm {,
matFimony and makes us all so aaxiou
to try it.

troll, and grow up with that strong re-
gard for the decencies Of life which
is the sole guarantee OF thrift and pru-
dence-
But if marriage be delayed for even
four or five years, the whole intsllec-
tual and moral life may be lifted and
expanded. An effective desire to live
respectfully and worthily may be awafS-
ened, and the woman who has once
known this desire will never permit
her children to sink into indifferences
or worse without an effort to quicken
their finer Sensibilities. She will think
twice before giving her hand in mar
rage, and Will demand a reasonable
assurance that she is not to step down
to a lower standard of living.
Here, then, would seem to be a STRAIT
egic point in the attack on social evils.
To aid in multiplying the opportunities
for young women to earn their sup
port and to surround them during their
wage-earning years with uplifting and
refining inf1uences-theSe plainly seem
to be important duties.
Perhaps in no other field of ethical
activity has there been for many years
