Everybody agrees that Il is foolish for
a man 10 give away his entire fortune
10 his wife and trust her TO he gen
erous with him, but a great many
people have :he idea that II is sweet
and cOnfdIzg. and shows a EOman's
confidence in her husband for her TO
hand over all that she has TO him IN
reality, IL is as ldi0tlC in the one case
as the other. because the best Of men
are often the worst hnanciers. and the
very traits which make a man most
lOVahIe are those which least nj him
for handling money
There is also this 10 be said that no
oman who really loves a man holds
him up for his roll and takes Il away
from him. She would not let him put
himself in the false position Of being
dependent upon her Nor would any
man who truly loved a woman take
from her her last dollar Whatever
money she had, be IL little or much, he
would want settled on her in some saIe
waE. SO that he might know that she
would BE- secured against want, no
matter what happened 10 his business
