OF these days they'll be married. and
shortly after the ceremony they'll both
come to the conclusion that they are the

bush always was the slouchiest young
man in town. He never had the energy
to shine his shoes or calcamine his

reform is permanent? You know better
than that. A man who has slouched
along like a scarecrow until he's old
enough to vote the prohibition ticket is
going to be a SLOUGH until he dies bar
ring special occasions like the present.
When Quackenbush has been married
three weeks he'll begin to sag down. His
shoes will look like mud scows. and he'll
forget to put on his necktie and he'll
let his whiskers go to seed. What will
Susan think of him then? She'll want
to have the junk man come and haul him
away, and nobody can blame her.
But Susan is working three-card
game herself and doesn't deserve much
sympathy She has fooled Quackenbush
into believing that she is q seraphic
creature. When he sits on the porch
with her she's so gentle he thinks ice
cream wouldn't melt in her mouth. But
that girl has the al-firedest temper In
seven states. and when once she is mar
ried and there's no longer any reason
for keeping the lid on ii she'll spend
most of her time reading the riot act.
THAT sort of thing is going on every
evening in the year; young men and
women are fooling each other to the
limit and no policeman steps in to in

yorce mills are busy.

1.-The court has been grinding away

remarked the retired merchant. This
sort Of thing is going on all over the
country and it's no wonder that so many
wise men are viewing with alarm. I
wonder if a woman, wien she applies
for a divorce. never recalls the agree
ment to take her husband for better or
for worse

keeper, but all pledges are of when a
woman finds that she has drawn q gold

has complete confidence in him or she

fidence and feeling that she has captured

agreement, and it never occurs to her
for a minute that there is any danger Of
being Unframed. Nobody could con-
vince her that her husband is a selling
platter even If the blue prints and speci-
ficatiOns were furnished. When she finds
that her doggone husband is a four
back on all such agreements, and her con-
science shouldn't trouble her in the least
Thousands of women do stick to that
better or worse agreement after finding
that their husbands are worth 10 cents
a bunch and no more. If all the women
who have cheap and unsatisfactory hus-
bands were to apply for divorces the
courts wouldn't have time to attend to
anything else
THE miracle. is that any marriages
turn out satisfactorily. No man knows
what sort of woman he is getting
when he marrieS and the woman doesn't
