who Jays that a man should have
sufficient love for his young wife
and sufficient pride to keep her In

she IS not permitted to buy her

because Of a silly old convention

There's No Reason Why a

It's an antiquated idea that

realize It the better.
There's no reason why a wom-

should.
Nor IS there any sensible argu-
ment against a wife, who must

the way that is most agreeable to
her.
There's been a great falling off
in matrimony in this generation
