What can you do? You can thank a

the girl you love IS a dismal raven
before you married her, and had to

life. Evidently she has no troubles
now beyond the imaginary ones that
come to pessimistic youth. With mar
riage and years there will come
troubles that are real Can you mag

My dear young man, it is women like

Take leaf from SHAKESPEARE, the
greatest student of human nature the
world ever knew: Read Tanning Of
the Shrew," and ponder while you
read.
Then call on this somber souIed girl
and groan when you hand her your
hat. and from that moment till you
take your departure do not admit by
look or word that there ever was any
sunshine in the world, or that there
ever will be.
Get to the task Of abusing life be-
fore she begins, and make your walls
and signs and means and grOans so
deep, so profound, so mOurnful that IN
comparison her plants will be only the
mutteringsl before the storm.
Regret the day you were born; long
for the cold tomb in every breath;
strew with ashes the path from the
cradle to the grave; express distrust
Of your friends; deprecate every am
bition, and in short, spatter black
paint and trim with the habiliments Of
woe every subject that comes up.
Don't do this occasionally, but always.
Let your face resemble that of a hired
mourner and your talk sound like the
wall of a lost soul. Make her know
You feel like a grave that is forgotten
and all sunk in; out groan out mourn,
out wall and out weep her; 'surfett her

sweet thing and well, worth while.
