wives" presents the confession of q
young woman who, having been en-.
gagged for seven years to one who al
first Untitled her ideals, awakened to
disillusion and reached the point OF
seeking release. The woman is now a
spinster. Following is her story:
"When Harry and ! were drst en-
gagged, we were deeply in love with one
another. gave up everything else for
Harry. He was my exclusive escort,
and gradually most Of my old friends,
both girls men, stopped coming TO

we discovered that We were talked out.
We began TO find our evening sessions
little tedious. / had gone with study,
and developed intellectually in a
direction different from Harry's and
when we resorted to reading in order to
spend an evening pleasantly, Harry
fell asleep while was reading to him.
We did not care for the same subjects;
we grew indifferent TO each others
opinions; and we accepted social in
vitations, we sometimes found ourselves
c. assified and labeled as an engaged
couple. This meant that we were too
old for the young people just coming
on, while, of course, we did not belong
in the set with young married people.
Finally, could bear ii no longer, and
insisted that we ought to break the en-
gagement Harry protested, said that
he could never be the same again, and
declared that had made desert of his
life. l was afraid that he spoke the
truth, but need not have feared. In
less than six months Harry became en-
gagged to girl who had grown up since
i had, and before the year was over they
were married. am still a spinster,
