LITTLE PROBLEMS OF
 LOVE AND MARRIAGE
What Is the Prospect for Happiness for the Woman Who Marries Wido,Oer iUith
 Large Fanily?
By Barbara Boyd.

into what they ought to be, they can make the home a most unpleasant place. So should she have no con scientious desire to train them. .-- thrusts upon her the c-.s>T zorn uf the dilemma.
 To insure happiness in such a mar riage, a woman needs to have tact. She will have children of various ages and tastes to panage; not her own children. with tastes akin to hers, but aliens in d way whom though she loves, she cannot love with the love she would give her own. They may not relish a stepmother. They may be secretly banded together in opposition to her rule. Almost in- finite love and tact are necessary to win them over and maintain peace and happiness in the home
 Children of her own may come. and she must be that rare woman. the woman with a deep sense of justice. not to show partiality. to really love and care for her stepchildren the same as she does her own.
 It is by no means an easy position for a woman to assume. The first yife's relations often stand ready to criticise and frequently to make trou- ble with the children. But if she has a genuine love for children. if she has tact and sympathy and the dispo- sition that wins the love and conf dence of children, If she can keep her temper well under control, if her hus- band will stand by her loyally, she may safely undertake the responsi- bility It will fill her hands and heart and life full She will need a large stock of unselfishness, for she will have little time to think of herself and her own pleasures if she does her duty by the motherless brood she has taken under her wing. But if she Is capable of managing successfully the responsibilities she has assumed. 1t is a life full of riches and joy.
