MODERN MARRIAGE
AND HOW TO BEAR 1T,

Though women are more anxious
TO marry than men and do every
thing in their power to achieve what
men often strive to resist, after
marriage 1t is generally the woman
who is most discontinued. OF late
years a spirit of strange unrest has
come oyer married women, and they
frequently rebel against conditions
which our grandmothers would never
have dreamed of murmuring at. One
says marriage falls short of women's
expectations; another that they have
had no feminine wild oats" says Mrs.
Churton Brady. advocate of license
being extended to women.
wild oats, otherwise an anti
hymeneal fling was certainly not a
necessity of our grandmothers, but a
certain fairly numerous) type of
modern women seem to make better
wives when they have reaped this
harvest.

Yvette, in one of my books. Yvette

loved any admiration but that of her
fiance.
"At 26 Yyette began to realize that
she had been cheated out of very
precious part of life and an IN
valuable experience.
"A dangerous spirit OF curiosity
entered her heart. and still more
dangerous longing for adventure and
excitement.

several dangerous affairs, and might
