Al D On the Failure OF
Aud dllCI SOA Common Sense Match

of a mans property to her is calculat-
ing, but precepts like his about COM
mon sense marriages make women cal
culating, calculating women do not
make good wives.
The truth that every man should
know instinctively, as every woman
does, is that when the right man asks
a girl TO marry him she doesn't take
time to consider. The yes tumbles
off her lips.
If l were Of the trousered sex and
a girl asked me for so days or one
day to consider the question whether
she loved me well enough to marry me
1 would bow as gracefully as the awk-
ward situation permitted and make
way for the man whom she wouldn't
want to regulate by the clock or the
calendar. I would know that her faint
request for time was merely putting
off a day that to her seemed evil.
There isn't much common sense in
any match. There are illusion, intoxi-
cation of the senses. insanity of the
heart. But unreliable as are these,
they are better assets in human mat
ing than is that common sense which
is but another name for cupidity and
calculation.

What Is a Surveyor?

II you mention surveying" to the
average layman the word calls up in
his mind either q confused vision Of
a man with a little telescope on a
tripod looking at something another
man is holding, or two men dragging
a chain along the ground. But what
is surveyor? The truth is there are
many kinds Of surveying, and conse-
quently the word surveyor" can be,
and is, applied to wide range of per-
sons. For instance, the engineer with
his transit, the miner with his level.
the city surveyor with a theodolite,
and the mariner with his sextant, are
all surveying. And the map maker
with his plane table and alidade, is a
surveyor, too; the most picturesque Of
the lot-Wide World Magazine.

- 4 planning by deed, If not by
word that his commonsense marriage
had miserably failed What else could
he expect?
Three months before he had taken
the world into his confidence about
his prop osed marriage He had said
that he forgave his bride many former
admirers as she would have to forgive
him many admirations before the cul-
rninating one Of his compelling ad-
niration for her He had said the
marriage would be based upon the firm
foundation of common sense.
He returned in & bitter huff, because
ne was jealous OF a quantity he had
proposed to ignore. her former admir-
ers and because she had persuaded
him TO make over his fortune to her.
He had himself lifted the medicine to
his lips. then cried because he didn't
like its taste. Men are unreasonable
creatures.
The woman he proposed to marry
didn't love him. She told him So Yet
he followed at her heels as poodle
its owners footsteps, and she became
used to that at first unwelcome sight
There came to her as comes to all wo-
men. a weary mood when opposition

pleasant one. But even in this mood

reply to his impassioned wooing-
"When?" he asked and she named

This man had been married before
and should have known some fixed
gacts about women. He should have
known that when a woman asks time
TO think about a mans proposal he
NAV be sure il is for one of two rea-
sons. She is fighting for time TO look
him up in. Dun's or Bradstreet's or she
wants to find out whether some other
wooer can be brought TO the proposing
point Circumstances indicate that the
woman was busy in both directions.

Thousands who suffer from back ache and kidney complaint have tried one remedy after another, finding on- ly temporary benefit. This is dis couraging, but there is one special kidney medicine that cures perman- ently and there is plenty of proof right here in Pine Bluff.
 Here is the testimony of one who used Dean s Kidney Pills years ago, and now states that the cure was lasting:
 Mrs. VI. l. Long, 1921 Seventh St, Pine Bluff, Ark, says: T had an at tack of kidney trouble and became so lame, weak and run down and had such terrible pains in my back that could hardly get about. At times the kidney secretions became unnat- ural. l could not rest well and felt miserable nearly all the time. None of the remedies I tried helped me and finally began taking Doan's Kidney IilS, IIOtultu llOul lue MdH H. l ll N ersley Drug Co.
