Marriage in one respect is very differ

Then there was one head to the fami-

world, including the wealthy classes.
work. This educates them to a self
dependence of which their grandmoth-
ers knew nothing.
Charlotte Blake was one OF these
girls who worked. Work to her was
not necessary. Her father was album
dainty able to support her, but she
could not brook idleness. She possess
cd good voice and would have liked
to 20 on the stage had her father not
objected. As it was, she gave music
lessons. But when she engaged her
self to Henry Pomeroy her lover OBJ
iected to her doing anything whatever
so she gave up teaching.
She had been engaged several months
without hearing anything from her
fance as to their marriage. and. time
hanging heavy on her hands, she spoke
to him about the matter.

only bother me. I'm like horse used

head and he'll carry you safely. Try
to guide him and he'll spill you"
This was all that was said about the
matter at the time. Miss Blake con
tinued to do nothing, while Mr.. Pom
eroy pursued the even tenor Of his
way without mentioning his affairs to
her. He was devoted to her in other
respects. taking her to the theater, to
drives and affording her other anuse-
ments Indeed. he treated her in the
old fashioned way, as his father had
treated his mother, as his grandfather
had treated his grandmother.
But Charlotte lived in a different
age from his mother or his grand
mother She had been developed. She
was itching to assume her part of the
family headwork. Self control was
one of the features of this develop
ment, and that self control enabled
her, having spoken once on the mat
ter that most interested her, to refrain
from doing so again Nevertheless,
there was q smoldering fire within.
Miss Blake was a representative of the
twentieth century woman.
Meanwhile the flowers came regular

his invitations AS to the flowers, she
sent them to an invalid whom she re

of the invitations she declined. These

way to show his devotion. while she,

her home and said: II am happy to an
