June partly because it is fashionable,
partly because hereditary instinct

raige based on either of these conditions
cannot be happy in many cases, and in
most it means positive unhappiness.
For these reasons I have decided
If a young couple comes to me, show
ing, that they are sincerely in love with
each other, I request them to postpone
the marriage until after June. If thew
listen to my reasons, they usually agree
that l am right. I tell them that their
love will be all the sweeter and better
Tor the short postponement. If they

and desire to make society show of
