MatrimOny as a Business

One of the most up-to-date philoso-

this comparison may seem like an ap-

there is little of loves sweetness AM
sentiment in the prosaic matters
which we commonly include under the

desire to idealize love should not

practical common sense.
There is little doubt that a great

YOU AND YOUR WIFE

business partnership does not detract
from the sacredness of its characte!
or rob it of any of it's sentiment. The
most that it does is to place it upo1
the same footing with other affairs OF
life in giving the two partners in tn
firm an opportunity to act like ration
al human beings.
Of course, marriage has its prob
lens and he who embarks upon the
matrimonial seas with the belief thai
all is to be smooth sailing is certain
tn be disillusioned. How serious, or
how permanent, this disillusionment
may be is a matter which will depend
upon the way in which the situation
is met. And it is here that practica
common sense is needed more impera-
lively than it can ever be required IN
Strengthening out the tangles in the
business world.
The idea that clergyman can take
two distinctly different Municipalities
and, by reciting the few words of the
marriage service, make them one, is
an ideal that is too seldom realized
Individuality is a difficult factor tc
eliminate, and two Municipalities are
not merged with the ease with which
the chemist blends two liquids in his
test tube.
The great problem of matrimony
therefore, is how to harmonic the tive
Municipalities, not how to merge
them; how to make them work n
unison without depressing the individ-
uality of either. If the life of both is
to be sweet and full and free. this
marvel must be accomplished. It cas-
never be accomplished without the
most perfect cooperation. No matter
how many sacrifices the one may be
wiling to make, success is impossib le
without the help of the other.
If we faced the experience of mat.
rimony with more of the spirit we dis.
play when entering upon a business
experiment we should find marriage
more like the ideal that the poets
have pictured The man who takes q
partner in a business venture does
not anticipate a life free from an.
noyances. He realizes that his associ.
ate is human being like himself
with peculiarities and opinions d
his own--peculiarities and opinions
that are not unlikely to be productive
Of inharmonies.
Let such an occasion Of discorL
arise, however, and he is prepared t.
meet it sanely and sensibly. He does
not fly off at tangent at the first
suggestion of opposition to his plans
He does not dream of expressing hit
disapproval in torrent of rage or in
terms of biting sarcasm. Instead, the
two partners sit down quietly anc
talk the matter over calmly and dis
passionately threshing the question
out by considering one phase after an
other until they fnai.y reach tht
goal.

BOOKS GIRLS READ and
WHY they READ THEM
Miss Loeb Tells Some Ex'
pGriGDCGS
(By Sophie Ierne Loeb.)

| planned tnat girls, espeCAdlly puoAh00'
girls, do not read the the right books,
she said:
81 am afraid that these girls do not
read the right kind of books. l have
found many of them read Ibsen. do
not approve of that Books of that kind
make them unhappy and discontinued
They become socialists and, instead o.
thinking wealthy people their friends,
they grow to hate us"
While she may not fully realize the
needs of girls rot in the swim of So
ciety in which she moves, yet there is
some food for thought as to what girls
should read.
A statistician has estimated that #
the reading matter on the market to-
day were placed on the streets Of
New York people could not leave their
doors!
Therefore, in truth, there is some
thing to choose from. While Ibsen
may not come within the scope of some
growing girls, yet it is commendable,
! to say the least, that works of
writer's of that calibre may be found
among the girls on the east side.
I visited the night schools on the
east side, where many girls who are
employed during the day in business
are trying to get some education al
their only leisure. Here I found young
women in this country but short time
reading Shakespeare understandingly,
though in very broken English. For,
as they read, the sentences were in
terpreted properly.
l shall never forget the look Of
appreciation that often came over these
girls faces at some momentous pas
sage that particularly pleased or
created sense Of comprehension III
them
This is certainly step in the right
direction.
Yet too much of one thing, as any
thing else in the world, is more than
plenty. And no one may gainsay but
that plenty should be the high water
mark.
So that girls who would read not
only for amusement must indeed come
to earth as we'll and search for their
mird food They will not find it with
in the confines of the best seller" but
rather that literature which, after 4
long period, has been tried and not
found wanting.
There is just as fine romance in the
recognized histories of the world of
real men and women as may be found
in the best sellers" if a girl but put
forth the effort to get them. The IL
braries are full of them.
Besides the newspapers have some
features along these lines that are
certainly worth while. When you can
daily pick up paper and read inter
esting as well as instructive, stories,
such as Women Who Helped Build
America"-a series which not only
pleases but creates knowledge for the
retentive brain-then, indeed, in the
present day, she who runs may read
the very pest OF WOrk.
The main thing for the young wo-
man today is not to read one kind of
thing. 1t is quite natural that too much
Ibsen might breed discomfort. Too
much anything might have the same
effect, however.
The idea is to strike a variety tina;
will not only satisfy the imagination,
but amuse and instruct as well. A
little discrimination in this direction
by every girl will result to her own
interest.
Think what and why you read.
