some philosophers to see in the
marriage institution the highest
good Of life and good cynics to con
denim all marriage.
It is from a different point OF
view than these that ClOudesley
BreretOn approaches the ever-new
subject in the columns OF the Lon.
don Times. He has convinced
himself by what he considers to be
an innucive process that marriage
in the present day is a serious han
dicap to men, and he draws the
conclusion that il women didn't
cease making it a handicap the
bankruptcy of marriage and the
consequent end Of all things social
is in immediate sight.
To begin with, Mr.. Brereton de-
scrlbes to us ''the increasing ex
igencies of the modern married
woman" That means the wife
is charging her demands on her
husbands time, energy and money.
She spends too much, because she
wants to start in life where her
parents left off, and "Dothing we
know can withstand the Emporium
tiles of the woman with a purpose"
Then, ''even if honest John has
been all day between the shafts,
he must be bridled and saddled
for the evening and often for the
afternoon as we'll" In other
words he must go TO parties and
balls. By and by be gets pneu-
monia, ''and his wife's vanity and
selishness were largely responsible
for the simple complaint carrying
him off,"
It would seem as though that
were the end of the husband. Yet
