HOW CAN II WIFE RETAIN
HER HUSBAND LOTE?
ny ELEANOR WARNER.

the rich should be sufficient evidence
10 convince the most obtuse-for In
spite Of youth. beauty, accomplish
ments and adorable costumes, for all
hours OF the day and night, the wives
of many rich men find IL quite as diff
ficult TO hold the everlasting and un-
divided affections of their husbands
as do their poorer and less favored
sisters
The plain, unvarnished truth Is that
the marvellous prodigy has not yet
been born who can pose as Fluffy
Ruffles while filling the role OF wife,
mother. nurse-maid, cook and scrub
woman. and the man who expects and
demands a living picture for his Wis
avis at breakfast when his finances
will not permit him TO hire a cook is
sadly lacking in common sense, to
say nothing OF other desirable quail
ties
In "Amours of Great Men" the
author says-"When beauty alone
awakens love, when youth alone in
spires the desire, we may easily fore
see that love will weary-that the
desire will be extinguished the day
beauty wanes, but when the heart and
the intellect are captlvated, no less
than the eyes and the senses, the
woman who yields need not fear the
ravages OF time-she is protected by
the very nature of the passion she
inspires-her heart and intellect will
defend her happiness much better
than hay beauty"
To the gross materialism OF the
present age is very largely due the
prevailing marital unrest, and the
remedy would seem to be In placing
love on a higher plane for sentimen-
tai slush and sensual slime have too
long masqueraded under the pure
name of love.
In considering the various theories
advanced as causes and remedies for
conjugal infelicity and infidelity, En-
erson's essay on Love" stands un-
rivalcd. Every page is pregnant with
truth, and the following paragraphs
seem especially apropos:
IF, however, from too much con-
versing with material objects the soul
was gross and misplaced It's satisfac.

but sorrow-body being unable to full.
fill the promise which beauty holds
out-but II, accepting the hint of these
visions and suggestions which beauty
makes to his mind, the soul passes
through the body and fails TO admire
strokes of character. and the lovers
contemplate one another in their dis
courses and their actions, then they
pass TO the true palace of beauty,
more and more infiame their love OF
II. and by this love extinguishing the
base affection as the sun puts out the

folding by which the house was built
and the publication OF the intellect

real marriage, forseen and prepared
