Making Married Life Happy.
Probably the great reason why there
are 80 many unhappy marriages to-
day lies in the growing rsstlsssness Of
the age. In the good old days before
women were emanclpated they were
content to stay at home and minister
20 the needs OF their lord. their chill
dren and their household. Matinees.
summer sales and afternoon teas were
unknown. Our grandmOthers were not
always racklng their brains for some
fresh diversion. some new way OF kill
ing time. They lived simple. healthy,
frugal lives. and Tin spite Of the
swoOning they are represented, in the
novels of the period, as INDUCING I'M

The woman OF to-day Is constantly
craving for excitement. IL she IL Of
the lower middle class she passes her
nights In heated sale rooms. bidding
frenXIedly for articles she does not
want: II she IL OF the upper middle
class she disports herself Upon some
promenade or wears herself TO pieces

the only thing she detests-
