SECRET MARRIAGES
AND EL0PEMENTS
BY DOROTHY FENIMORE

ton Of her charms and her romance
These tributes to her vanity serve mere
ly as an advertisement of her folly.
They help to mark her as a woman
who has made mistake
There is no escape from this conse-
quence OF her indiscretion. Until old
age she will be pointed out as "a wom-
an who eloped,' and it will not take
many years for this distinction to be-
come distasteful to her
Furthermore, If her marriage turns
out unhappily she will get more than
half of the blame. even though she does
not deserve it. What can you expect?"
people will say.
She lowered herself in her husband s
regard at the very beginning of their
life together by the clandestine way
that she married him. And the saddest
part of 1t all is that there will be at
least grain of truth in this popular
opinion.
Love without esteem" says Dumas
fills, cannot reach far or fly high; it
is an angel with but one wing"
II couple Of young lovers whose
marriage is opposed by their elders
would only have the patience TO wait a
little all would turn out well, or at least
for the best. Parents are not often un-
reasonable.
1t is natural that a father who un-
derstands the temptations Of men and
the difficulty of making a decent iveli-
hood should wish to hedge his daughter
about by every safeguard, and should
be slow to consent to her marriage with
a young fellow who has not yet had a
chance to prove himself.
1t is not strange that a mother who
has known the suffering and privations
of bringing UP a family on a small in
come should hesitate to give up her
daughter to a man whom she has no
particular reason to trust.
If a young man is not able to see any
point of view but his own IN his WOO
ing, If he urges upon a girl a course Of
conduct which is doubtful in it's expe-
diency, one which may later bring her
regret, he does not really love her-he
loves himself.
And If she yields to his persuasions he
never will love her-as it is her woman
ly right to be loved. After marriage he
will simply go on loving-himself.

In contrast to Russia. Japan appears
a modern nation. The Asiatic empire
spends more money on education and
has more children in school than the
Slavic power. Toxic has several times
as many book stores and news stands
as St Petersburg. The Japanese live
under a constitution which gives them
definite system of public law and
which safeguards their personal hb-
erty The Government grants religious
freedom throughout the empire. In the
war proclamations and utterances of
every sort the Japanese have shown a
self-restraint, an absence of boastins
and a respect for their enemy which
have been noticeably lacking In the
pompous pronunciamentoes of their
opponents. In spite Of it's training in
Asiatic ideals Japan has proved itself
much closer in spirit than Russia TO the

The San Francisco call., 1904-11-14

I THINK it would not be amiss for
me to say a word on the subject of
elopements and secret marriages.
Indeed, I am eager to do this, for
1 feel that any young girl who
loves a man without her parents sane
ton to his suit is like ship without
rudder, tossing helpless in storm.
In her perplexities she has no one In
whom to confide except her lover-who,
naturally is biased in his own interest
and possibly an intimate friend, who
has no more experience in life than her
self.
There is no other occasion In Wom-
ans life when she needs her own people
about her so much as on her marriage
day. Then she is taking the most de-
cisive step in her career, the step by
which her happiness and her honor
stand or fall.
She is entering an estate from which
death alone can free her honorably.
Divorce. whether justified or not from a
woman's point of view, leaves inva-
riably a shadow on her name The fact
that she herself is absolutely free from
reproaoh does not save her from humil-
iation.
The Judgment of the world in regard
to these things still hinges upon
prejudice as hard and narrow as that
of the medieval knight Of whom Mrs.
Browning sings in THE Romaunt of
the Page" The wife who has, as the
poet expressed 1t, ''unwomaned herself"
out of love for her husband. is doomed
to hear the latter say, in verdict on her
conduct:
Look up--there is a small, bright cloud
Alone amid the skies.
So high-so pure-and so apart
woman's honor lies.
A girl cannot afford to make herself
or her love common in any way. She
has too much to lose. Once she is
talked about adversely she is at the
mercy of every unfavorable breath of
criticism that blows. She has sacrificed
the privilege which other women, more
discreet than herself, enjoy of doing
what seems right, fearless Of censure.
An elopement or secret marriage
never makes a girl appear to others as a
heroine, in spite Of the fact that she
gets her name in the papers, with her
best photograph and glowing descrip

Bradford put his hands in his pockets

she had her way, and soon a box OF
blooming nasturtiums gave the dingy
room a cheerful aspect. Every morn

ulous little red watering pot.
Oftentimes after Miss Henderson had
